I suppose that those who like the adrenaline rush that the OP gives will dismiss it as to allow for a continuation of their "the world is about to explode" belief system.
BTW... we called this type of thinking "cognitive dissonance" when I got my undergrad in Psychology.
Anyway... this article is not speculation. It based on reality from a legitimate media source.
The U.S. dollar is back!
Thanks to a U.S. economy that is outperforming its peers in the developed world, an improving energy trade balance spurred by a domestic energy boom, and a shifting interest rate environment, market practitioners are coming around to the notion that the dollar is poised to enter a new bull market.

Isn't this old . . . like at least a couple months?
I read this "interview with the informant" before. Once before the election and then another after the 1st of the year . . . all the same info.
I'm even pretty sure there is another thread somewhere around here that posted when the latest interview appeared on the blog.
I knew I couldn't be the only person that swears they've read this before.
In regards to the OP...
Lets do some simple math:
The population of the United States is roughly 313,914,040. According to globalsecurity.org, the entire military has about 3,017,414 personel. That number includes reservists and guard memebers.
That would be one service member for every 104 Americans. I don't know about you, but with those numbers I don't see how the government could have enough manpower to exercise complete martial law. Remember, that not everyone in the military is fit for a combat role either.
Now, with the technology that the US military has at their disposal it might make crowd management easier, but to have 104 souls for every single person employed by the military? That's a big stretch.
When you do the math and look at it logically, the only way that the OP's scenario would work is with foreign troops.edit on 13-3-2013 by MystikMushroom because: (no reason given)

Has anyone else researched the infiltration of the web by this Obama group? I wrote the name of the organization in my OP. Is it worth looking into?
There is NO reason not to use what could easily be one of the most powerful propaganda tools they have.
First let me reveal that ATS--along with many other websites (especially those with a conservative bent, like anti-abortion, religious, etc.) were infiltrated by more than 3,000 people hired after the election in something called "Cyber-Warriors for Obama Project." Minimum wage salaries were paid through funds from Obama's political corporation called "Organizing for Obama."

Firstly.... The government buys ammo continually. It's a part of their budget. Military supply contractors make lots of money because the government continually buys replacement ammunition.
This is a way to both pump money into the economy and line the pockets of those supply contractors that lobby to get these contracts; however...
Let's say that you are right.

Kumbayah, and all that stuff.
Sit around the fire, my friend, and pass your peace pipe.
I have been studying--astutely--the changes in American policies, economics and government (as have many of us here) for many, many years.
You can't afford to keep your head in the sand.
If you're not interested in knowing the truth, why belong to ATS?
I am sure there are all kinds of interesting spiritual sites on the web that you can go hang out in.
Some of us here are trying to get to the bottom of what is happening in the world.
So, please....
Let us do that,
Okay?

What you are presenting is hardly truth. What you're going is taking one scenario and relating it to a twisted doom fantasy: Please, tell me why the government wants to kill us, let alone desires economic collapse?
One group and one group alone is responsible for virtually all wars and bloodshed on the face of this planet. This evil cabal is few in numbers but, like a deadly octopus, its tentacles reach out to grip and strangle untold multitudes of innocent victims. The initiates of every secret society and internationalist organization, from the Council on Foreign Relations and the Jesuits to the Bilderbergers and the Order of Skull & Bones, obey the dictates of this sinister group and tremble when standing before its leaders.
The cabalist group I refer to is the Synagogue of Satan, an ancient, yet modern, elite so politically powerful and so fabulously wealthy that even past history has been twisted, reshaped, and revised to meet its preferred version of humanity's gloomy, totalitarian future.

The one part always missing out of these conspiracies is the reason why.
What does the government possibly have to gain by destroying their populace?
Money, power, control?
It seems that if they have the ability to do everything your predicting then they already have those things. You always need to come up with a motive for conspiracies before you put together pieces.
