……”Credit crisis, then fiscal crisis, then currency crisis. Bring it on. Let’s get it over so we can rebuild our country again. Our country, not by the corporations, of the corporations, and for the corporations……”

This, unfortunately is what happens when a ‘Country’ fully signs up to ‘By the people, of the people and for the people’….

‘People’ start a business, business becomes a corporation, corporation gains power, Government panders to corporation….blah blah blah.

America isn’t just constrained by it’s own constitution, it’s also (and just as unfortunately) firmly captive to Jewish financial dogma (Initially instigated with the European banking clans centuries ago).

There is ONLY one way to completely solve the problem, and it’s a solution that absolutely cannot be manipulated by shady bankers and their servant governments. It applies not only to America, but to the rest of the world……

A Gold Standard.

By the way, I feel Rubino’s site is very informative and educational. Thanks John

“Republicans, I sometimes think alot of people I meet want the rapture to occur. I only laugh, I laugh at them for wanting misery, for all of humankind, and then they think they’ll go to heaven?”.

Yes you have it correct,the Catching Away will occur (Rapture is nowhere in the scriptures)…but the meaning is basically Snatched Away.
( As for Republicans??), that part I missed………..those that remain and suffer do so because their not In CHRIST,not because Christians want them to suffer.
And, are left behind…………I suggest those that are not IN Christ, get there asap, as the signs are everywhere, for HIS return,and the AntiChrist’s appearing.

As for the Economy…………

Deflation first, yes, next and always, Inflation,then Hyper Inflation.
So, do what you wish,if your a PM holder, HOLD.

While it may drop in value, it won’t last long.Use the drop period (if the same mistake is made again as in ’08),which I HOPE to see, but many people are far more ON top of this game, now than then.

I think that deflation, insofar as it is reflected in an increase in the value of the US Dollar, puts a downward pressure on the price of gold and silver. However, supply and demand (for gold) may create an upward pressure. There can also be a speculative bubble, due to fear and uncertainty. I think the gold bugs are desperately pushing hyper-inflation fears to fuel this speculative bubble. No doubt there are other important forces. It’s the sum of these forces that results in the price.

I personally don’t see how we can hyper-inflate. That chart in Martenson’s article tells us that inflation has already happened, in the form of immense credit expansion, since the 70′s. I’m sure the gov’t will try to exert what remaining inflationary pressure they can (Gordon T. Long seems to “know” that there will be another $5T in stimulus). But IMO we are “inflationed out”, we have too much excess capacity, and maybe hyper-deflation is more plausible (that last clause is a hyper-speculation).

The prices of individual entities will therefore see a downward pressure, but their ultimate prices will be determined by many factors that are unique to each entity. Basic staples are presumed to see an increase in demand, for example. Also, worldwide demand may trump our demand (or lack thereof). Commodity shortages could cause price anomolies. Etc., etc.. Everything has to be analyzed separately, but in general prices will go down. That’s what I’m counting on.

The market’s solution to abundance is the supply/demand curve trigger of the price mechanism leading into recession/depression.

There must be a better way.

Agreed, the paper money boys are feudalists without titles.

@Bruce C.,

Expect the value of gold to decline during the anticipated deflationary cycle and increase afterward with hyperinflation.
