The Slide, the slide, the long coming sliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiide

Bears now rule everywhere. Imperial expansion is over, the planet will not finance it anymore, increasingly the Wehrmacht will be forced to downsize. This past 60 days have begun the liquidation phase of the petro dollar. Here is some perspective. Behind all of this is what is clearly the general opinion in Eurasia that the U.S. is more of a problem than an asset. What do you do with problems? You liquidate them. The U.S. is now going on a long ride of liquidation.....it will be about two years to bottom out. Cayce was right on the money, I was about one year early in the 2006 Collapse title but the logic of the book was pretty good. The recession, bubble-breaking, and massive loss of confidence in the U.S. clearly began in 2006. Now the massive loss of the planet's confidence in the mind-numbing dolts who control the U.S. government and corporations is generating a huge wave of reactionary moves which will essentially swamp the U.S. economy. Keep in mind that It will be a while yet, the Cabal has firm control of Japan Inc. and they have a lot of play left in the use of the Yen/Dollar conversions as a phony shell game of phony currencies. There will be ups and downs to confuse the gullible and fleece the sheep, but the trend is definitely down.

Wait two years, then buy property. You may get it for half on the dollar or less, but there is a major calculation issue which is difficult to predict. There will also be a massive increase in inflation. Already is. The people who see no inflation are total bullshitters. Real values will shrink but inflation may keep the dollar "prices" near today's. What this means is that real estate may decline only 20% (this is an arbitrary example) but China Inc. goods and all American food may be twice as expensive in two years or so. This means the real estate will become cheaper compared to basic commodities, but not in comparison to historical values and wages. The impossibility of predicting any of this keeps me out of the analyst game, the only thing we can really see and understand are the general directions of movement. I believe chaos will become the operative economic word in America by 2008. The rest of the world will fare much better. Eurasia really does not need us and this strategic fact will be played in a big way during the next several years.

Germans Get by Without the Euro - January 26th, 2007

If you live in the Bavarian region of Chiemgau, you can exist for months at a time in a euro-free zone of hills and lakes with a population of half a million people. Restaurants, bakeries, hairdressers and a network of supermarkets will accept the local currency: the Chiemgauer. Notes are exchanged freely like legal tender. You can even use a debit card. Petrol stations are still a problem, but biofuel outlets are signing up. Dentists are next. The Chiemgauer is one of 16 regional currencies that have sprung into existence across Germany and Austria since the launch of the euro five years ago.

Another 49 regions are in the pipeline. They are outside the control of the political authorities, mostly run by activists, farmers, eco-enthusiasts, anti-globalists, and citizen committees.

Some are rural, others circulate like underground money in Berlin and Bremen. Hamburg has two: the Alto and the Hansemark. Italy has its version in the Valchius Valley, in the Alps.

The phenomenon, not seen since the Great Depression, has left experts scratching heads at the Bundesbank. The mighty reserve bank, which issues euro notes and coins worth €146bn for a third of the eurozone economy, is relaxed about the risk of monetary anarchy. But it is sufficiently puzzled to publish a 63-page report probing the eruption of this movement.
