Few realize , INCLUDING Obama, that he inherited a disaster that will in the long run prove WORSE THAN THE GREAT DEPRESSION. i will equate the monstrous ponzi scheme financial system developed relentlessly, unchecked, in a bi-partisan fashion over past the 20/25 years to the allegory of The Tower of Babel. Like the The Tower of Babel, it willl collapse utterly. It is now swaying in the wind, cracks forming in its foundation. The bottom will be when this MONSTER to greed/ to lust for power/ and to the deification of materialism and the American Flag and Western Supremacy/ and to the glorification of militaristic and economic imperialism does finally collapse in a world encompassing cloud of dust, leaving behind but an abyssmal crater. Then we will see the bottom.(IMHO:)--of course. We are living through the Sunset of The West, but it's sunset will be disaster world wide. You are living in a time of history going through a massive breakdown. i wrote in 1991, "We have seen the collapse of the lie of Sovietized Socialism, now we will she the collapse of the lie of Americanized Capitalism" i sit here 18 years later, and am ONLY seeing my intuitive projection into the future proceed as i felt it would then. i thus have NO REASON to adjust my view now. i have had 18 years of confirmation. So, yes i have written a prophecy, but prophecy is only as good as one's intuition , so far i have no cause to refute my intuition. In the meantime the market will be but a volatile measure of hope and despair oscillating over time, but the end point will be BLEAK. Just an opinion , of course:) Enjoy history, we have no other choice.
