This blog posting is going to be short and sweet. A perfect storm is brewing and by this fall the entire US financial system, in my opinion, will crash and burn.
Reasons:
A second wave in the mortgage crisis is about to hit
CEO’s and Executives of large US corporations are selling off their own corporate shares at a pace not seen for the previous 2 years. When there is a big increase in insider trading it shows lost confidence in their companies and a pending crash.
Incidentally 2 years ago was when credit started to tighten as the prelude to the crash in the fall of 2008. It will not take two years this time as everyone has their radar tuned into to this.
The swine flu will be back. Don’t kid yourself, healthy people are getting sick and dying from this. It has eerie similarities to the flu pandemic of 1918.
I am in the process of cashing in every investment that I have and am purchasing gold and silver. A calamity is about to befall us and you had better prepare yourself. I would also consider buying a solar oven, solar generator, and vegetable seeds. Perhaps a gun and some ammo are in order too. You may have to hunt for your meat if you can not get it at a grocery store.
Let’s hope that I am wrong…but my trend forecast looks bang on!

I see today the FED has hired an assassin to kill Bill HR-1207. Bill HR-1207, introduced by Ron Paul, seeks to audit the FED, providing clear and transparent accounting of all transactions.
This paid lobbyist goes by the name Linda Robertson. Ms. Robertson is the current head of government, community and public relations at The Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland. Prior to that she worked for the Clinton Administration and as an executive at the sham formally known as Enron.
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The U.S. Federal Reserve is on track to hire a veteran lobbyist to help manage its relations with Congress at a time of heightened attention to its role in national affairs, a source familiar with the situation said on Friday.
The Fed plans to hire Linda Robertson, who previously worked for now-defunct energy company Enron, as well as the Clinton administration.
She is currently head of government, community and public relations at The Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, said the source, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the hiring process was not complete.
The Fed believes it will be useful to add to its resources at a time when there is great public and congressional interest in the institution, the source said.
The U.S. central bank has been at the forefront of government actions to limit damage from the financial crisis that began in August 2007 and the impact of the deep recession that began in December of that year.
Members of Congress have chafed at the Fed’s bold use of its emergency powers and in particular its multibillion-dollar bailouts of investment bank Bear Stearns and insurer American International Group.
Critics also bristle at the Fed’s practice of maintaining the confidentiality of the companies that borrow directly from the central bank on the grounds that divulging their names would risk runs on those institutions.
Many lawmakers and private analysts also fault the Fed for failing to stop risky lending and flawed market practices that laid the groundwork for the crisis.
A non-binding budget bill approved by Congress in April opened the door for lawmakers to seek disclosure of the names of firms that receive emergency Fed loans and paves the way for a possible study of the Federal Reserve System’s structure of 12 regional banks and a Washington-based board.
Some officials believe lawmakers would like to go so far as to demand that the presidents of these regional banks — or at least the head of the powerful New York Fed — be subject to congressional approval. Currently, directors at these regional banks pick their presidents, subject to the approval of the Fed’s Washington board.
Robertson was vice president for government affairs at now-defunct energy company Enron Corp from November 2000 until she closed its Washington office in early 2002. Enron collapsed in scandal in 2001 and her work there may raise some eyebrows.
Before that, she was an assistant Treasury secretary for legislative and public affairs under then-President Bill Clinton.
Dennis O’Shea, a spokesman for Johns Hopkins, said Robertson was not available to comment.
(Editing by Dan Grebler)
To me, this lobbyist is selling her soul to the devil and selling out her country. She should be ashamed of herself. Just the fact that she worked for Enron is damaging to her credibility and over the coming days and weeks she will be trying to convince bribe politicians to not support this legislation.
As this legislation gains momentum, it is now quite obvious that the Fed is getting nervous. To me, the FED says that they are doing the right thing. That they are fixing the ills of the economy. If I were running the FED, and what they said was true, I would be thrilled to open my books. So what are these banksters hiding? Just who got the trillions of dollars? How much was shipped off shore? How much cash, that was given to failed financial institutions, was used to buy solvent healthy ones?
Those are the types of questions these people do not want to provide answers to. Why is that?
So what can you do about this?
1) Send Ms. Robertson an email at lrobertson@jhu.edu and try and educate her. Tell her that her actions will be duly noted. She has a choice to make. Act on behalf of the Republic or be its enemy.
2) Contact you men and women in Washington. Phone the Capitol Switchboard: (202) 224-3121 and ask to speak to your representative.
3) Speak out about this. Tell your family, relatives, and friends. Spread the word. The time to act is now.

When Aaron Russo died of cancer the world lost a true patriot. A real hero. His philosophy, his message, his determination will live on. We will win the fight that he started. We will win back our freedom. We will win. We will!
In this Alex Jones Interview, Mr. Russo chronologically explains how he was set on his path of discovery that the United States of America is run by a group of thugs and criminals.
Early in the video he talks about how he was a huge gold and silver buyer in the 1980’s. He talks about how the IRS stole this wealth from him by closing a legal tax loophole and making it illegal. All is fine huh? Yeah right…until he finds out that they made the loophole illegal, retroactively. If that does not shock then you are either numb in the head or a shill. Take your pick because this video is overwhelming and compelling.

So what can you do to help further Aaron’s cause to shut down the FED? Easy visit Ron Paul’s website and become involved in HR-1207. It is a bill to make all transactions of the FED transparent through the auditing process. They hide in a veil of secrecy and refuse to let the taxpayer know where trillions of dollars have gone.
In fact, under current law, the FED is not accountable to any committee, organization, government, or individual. Ask yourself why that is!
I am convinced that if this legislation comes to pass and the FED is held accountable to the public that the scandal will force the government to abolish the FED. That was Aaron’s goal. It should be yours too as the FED is the primary reason that your labor has been taxed.
People…take back your country. Make America proud once again.

I am at the point now that I don’t even feel like blogging anymore. To some of you that may be a good thing but damn it all to hell the world is screwed. It has been flushed down the toilet. Freedom? What the hell is that? We don’t have freedom…we have corpogovernment fascism.
This video says it all. It says how I feel. This will be my last blog entry until I have something refreshing and positive to report. My personal life, my family, my peace of mind are all well and good. I have prepared for the calamity that is at hand. I have tried to get my point across but it seems, for the most part, people wish to keep living in their little fishbowl.
From now on I am going to devote my energies to other things that provide a decent return on my well being. Later.
