Anyone not afraid does not know what is going on. The OECD man has max 5 years more of wealth. Then is down to poverty as demographics effects are felt. They should be discussing, right now, the countermeasures. We from the periphery see it. We see it because we came form the era where demographics made us poor.

US and other powers struggled to persuade Afghanistan's President Hamid Karzai to accept a deal to resolve the dispute over the country's tainted presidential election and avert a political crisis that could spark civil unrest and jeopardize the fight against the Taliban-led insurgency. Officials led by Vice President Joseph Biden favor shifting the focus to decapitating al-Qaida in neighboring Pakistan, but some top U.S. military commanders reportedly are seeking up to 80,000 additional U.S. troops to help stabilize Afghanistan and double the size of the Afghan National Army. The war in Afghanistan entered its ninth year this month, with U.S. commanders acknowledging that the 100,000-strong U.S.-led international contingent and Afghan security forces are at risk of losing. A recent U.S. intelligence assessment estimated there are at least 25,000 full-time Islamist guerrillas in Afghanistan, 20 percent more than a year ago. A stable Kabul government is crucial to President Obama's efforts to reformulate his Afghan war strategy. seattletimes.nwsource.com

j6p never had a clue to begin with.The media's job in the US is to keep them permanently "preoccupied" with race,gays,movie stars,and the "theme story" of the day.Wall St. was always powerful,but now they have completely engulfed the entire system.The US is probably finished as the ALPHA MALE of the planet,its political leaders lost in a maze of self delusion and denial.With 10,000 nukes and an Army chasing its tale through out the world...Good God! anything could happen.I'm fairly pessimistic for any good outcome....buy gold.
