I have to wonder if it's a controlled demolition or is pure greed blinding American leaders and their corporate masters? Either way, when the US does crash and burn I don't think the rest of us will be laughing to hard as the countries tentacles are wound pretty tightly throughout global economics as far as I can tell. I'm also not to sure this wounded lion won't lash out intent on burning the whole forest down!


In my opinion there is no way this is "engineered," meaning that it is not some diabolical plot. The major plot is the corporate control over the US government, and like you mentioned, it is based purely off of greed. When all that matters is profit, of course any corporate involvement with the government is bad for the American people. And I don't even want to get started on the FED. That is where the majority of the corruption exists.

Anyway, the reason I do not believe it is a controlled demolition is because maintaining the status quo is necessary to satisfy the financial greed of the big players. Why fix it if it is not broken? And if they're making money, to them it isn't broken. That is my take on it anyway.

I doubt there would be a war if the US economy collapsed actually. With the rise of countries like India and China, with their rising wages and new middle classes, what we are actually seeing is a role reversal occurring.

In Europe and the US we are seeing poverty rise and the system starting to buckle under welfare states, but the problem to this will be solved simply.

Manufacturing will be moved to the west, where it was once in the east. Where do you think these countries will source their cheap produce? It will be from the west.

Made in China, will be replaced by made in USA.

Many people will be at the bottom of this chain in a new third world, but the masters of USA and Europe will still be sitting pretty and raking in the money like the happy 1% that they've always been.

I'm starting to lean over towards the probability of there being no war, because even in the worst case scenario the people in control of any country west or east will always have a new way of making money from it's people.

Here is why...Selfishness is the mark of a beast (Animal nature).

Matthew 21 - Jesus entered the temple courts and drove out all who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the benches of those selling doves.

-Tables are financial balance sheets.
-Benches are for rest
-Doves are peace

Translation: As the King arrives, the moneychangers tables are turned to debt and the peacemakers have no rest. Why? Money bought peace.

The Petrol Dollar is this verse (Carbon is the Mark of Mankind - 6 protons, 6 neutrons and 6 electrons).

Revelation 13

17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.

Carbon, the fruit in the middle of the garden.

Genesis 3

2 The woman said to the serpent, “We may eat fruit from the trees in the garden, 3 but God did say, ‘You must not eat fruit from the tree that is in the middle of the garden, and you must not touch it, or you will die.’”

Oil is in the middle of the garden. Fruit of Knowledge is technology. Man's mark. 6 (Carbon).

Maybe not broken but it's kinda like watching a wind up toy when the spring tension is mostly used up.

LET'S ADD/ Clarify...


the USA economy/GDP has been 50% less than the 'official' growth ...ever since the 2008 collapse
(which was regarded as a 'down-turn' instead of a collapse

I am seriously pissed that the soon-to-be-released CPI-W figure will only be 1.65 % instead of the legal max. of 1.7%
which is just another twist of the screw to the Vets & SS receivers...who know full well~ the CPI-W rate is pure BS~
because all-across-the-board the inflation rate is beyond 10% not 1.65% as the A-holes in the WH maintain it is


but lets wait till Oct 15th when the 'official numbers' are released

Then let's massively challenge the BLS/WH on that infintesimal mis-calculated .5%
(as opposed to the realistic 10% CPI-W figure)...just to let them AutoCrats know we (the masses) are on-to-their-schemes / BS

Sometimes I wish I had a buddy in business who could give me a crash course in what is a GDP and what is a CPI-W etc.
Then I could get involved in all this juicy doom-porn.
I mean, what kind of conspiratard would I be to not understand the financial crisis we are supposedly experiencing?

Nobody ever brings up how so many people can be on assistance for food and the corporations that provide it don't complain.

I have an inkling why that may be, does anyone else?.

Rising prices for nearly everything is a symptom of what is not a problem for the providers, but a big problem for the consumer.

The problem is well hidden in plain sight, the problem began around 1913 and then came WW1 shortly afterward to feed the beast and war ever since.

War itself is a non-returning investment, it must be something we can't or won't see that so many support such evil things and treat life and death like it's some kind of game.
