I'm missing something. But really would like to know why all of this horrible stuff will happen when the market is going back up, housing is starting to turn around, or at least not get worse, job losses are slowing.
Is it the dollar? Or China?
The market isn't actually going up. It's just that so much new money has been introduced, that prices by default go up(inflation).
Like if tomorrow you doubled the amount of money, then the prices of things would also double.
You gotta look at purchasing power, rather than $$$ amounts. If you start making twice as much money, but then everything you buy costs twice as much, it's not really a raise. Even though you make more in $$$ amounts, your purchasing power is the same.
Likewise, this is also how they steal money from your pocket without you realizing it. If they add all that money, and you didn't get a raise(I haven't lately), then the prices go up and you lost your purchasing power. But they didn't touch the dollar amount of your income and such.
--------------------------------------To the rest of the topic:
People are waking up. I had a meeting with my CEO last week and at the end as we were leaving/saying goodbye, I said - what do you think about the economy. And all he replied with was "FIAT". I think it kind of opened his eyes recently with whats been going on, and I was telling him to get ready for the market crash about a year before it happened and why.
Ron paul is actually saying that the powers that be are running so scared now, that another generated crisis (Maybe false flag) is in the works....

The Fed was created because Congress could not manage money
And guess what, THEY STILL CANT! The economy is proof of that

Ron Paul needs to go mainstream with this. Him being involved with Alex Jones just makes him look senile and completely out of his mind.

if you want to know what the problem is and why everyone is so apprehensive, its becuz hte world is run by bankers who own the media and other big corporations. they control the flow of information to you. they meet at conferences which occur outside the government of their respective countries. bildeberg etc. these things are happening they are real. why is dutch royalty meeting with your president/his advisors and heads of industry/bankers to discuss how to run the world, when you are supposed to be telling your governments how to run the world. they dont listen to you. they decide whats going to happen to you in secret behind closed doors, and its not ever reported in the media that these conferences even occur.
read jim marrs - rule by secrecy to understand the truth. (from amazon.com); also read william bramley - gods of eden... there's some interesting info about how the banking sector/money really works. is money enslaving you? do you really understand how the economy and banking works? if you havent read either of these books, you probably dont. at least it could open your eyes to a new perspective; and even if you choose not to believe it, they're still a really interesting and compelling read, i found.
