Tom... that is the ticket... that is my call... that is my endorsement.... and I am already involved in The Campaign And I am a Member of the campaign for liberty.....Ron Paul assumed the CEO position when he left congress in January.....the previous head did an A+ job..... he had the troops marching very nicely. (Please ignore the subliminal advertising message in this post....nothing to see here...) -g- I know who has the biggest grass roots campaign of the social media society.... the subset of our population, into social media, politics and their economic future.... if you think of it in math terms... there are many different sets of groups represented by circles and the intersection of the above diverse groups creates a subset of high output, highly motivated.... members of this below the radar screen movement. just watch how social media and the future is going to play out...... just think back to our phone calls in 1999 and 2000 regarding Gold.... I have recapped and put together my posts of Aug and Sept of 2005 where I stated that their had been a ninefold increase in credit default swaps and the counterparty risk would be the cause of the upcoming financial panic....... that 2 and 1/2 to 3 years before it became Main stream news. Bear Sterns MER, AIG, CITI all were bankrupt and the global financial system would have blown up society collapsed if the Central Banks and Governments were not proactive... George Bush was proactive..... We have a handful of Senators who Need to be called to the carpet and knew exactly what was going on.... Many of us did..... Your friend, John.... btw I lost something... need to PM you regarding it.... JP btw... *all of the above is just me and my colleagues at GFA trying to look around the corner to see what comes next.*..sometimes I get it most of the time I don't...and of course as time passes events occur we have new data points to feed into the model of what the future will look like. JJP ;-)

Hi Tom, I was talking with TJ, over on his 2001 thread regarding the very strong capitalist society in Hong Kong....it got me thinking about a potential longer term theme.... one which Henry Kissenger writes about in his newest book regarding the 21st century and China and the USA having to constructively co exist ---- The one thing about the global money centers of Hong Kong, Sydney, London etc... is that they have had major real estate bubbles that never popped.... I have talked with *Long time residents of Sydney and they are saying that Sydney real estate can never go down in price.... that is kind of dangerous talk...... Hong Kong has a very similar view regarding their real estate........* all Big Bubbles tend to deflate and correct for a while at some point..... If China ever did get pressed by it's citizens and we had a large military conflict with them...... and that might be way out in 2020..... but I could see them raising up a war chest by expropriating assets and real estate in both Hong Kong and simply pulling a good old fashioned land grab for Australia....(and nationalizing assets) to finance their war chest.
