the fed will likely have to stop QE or interest rates will skyrocket and the fed's put options will explode in its face.

the end game draweth near.

my basic thesis is to load up on stuff you need to live now.

if hyperinflation hits, you might not be able to afford it.

if a hyperdeflation hits, you might not be able to get it at any price - like food in the great depression.

its a win either way.

be wary of any money or other wealth outside of your ability to directly control.

<<it that is true what effect would it have on the overall markets
the dollar?
our lives in general?

Look around, the world's social systems are breakig down everywhere from overpopulation. Mexico is becoming a narco state. Most of central and south america is also riddled with broken social structures and organized crime.

In the US, with the exception of Alaska, social structures and systems are breaking down for lack of money and education.

Russia and Eastern europe is riddled with organized crime. In Asia abject poverty is pervasive.

And our world is becoming too complex for us to understand as we move inexorably toward the human singularity.

Paul Ryan putting out a budge that portends to predict 40 years out is laughable. No one 3 years ago saw the world as it is today.

And worst, Most are paying little attnetion, but just live to live, not even trying to understand their world, but prefering hedonism to rationality. Half the folks in the US cannot even name one Republican running for president. And they sure as hell have no idea what any of thier particular policies are.

Last night I watched the old movie "Strange Days". that is where we are headed. And only a few have any real understanding of the general dynamics of it all.
