80% of the worlds daily savings ($2.6 billion) finance the US current
account deficit through useless junk bonds which the US will never pay
back unless rampant inflation is implemented. When Gates + Buffet +
Soros are all massively shorting the dollar (at a profit), for a
reason. Remarkably, most people in the US are completely unaware of how
tantalizingly close economic armageddon really is. It just will take
one bad news story to trigger it all - like OPEC oil in euro's for
example. The US stockmarket turns over most of its outstanding shares
every month now which is a good indicator of long-term investor
sentiment) or complete lack thereof. US Policy makers dismiss economic
environment with naive beliefs that debt/gdp ratio's were worse in the
40's and 50's and thus current status quo is manageable and sustainable
without realizing fundamental causes are totally different. A cursory
look at gold pretty much gives this all away.
