I look forward to hearing your explanations as to why the financial world didn't end by the time you say it will.

By this time next year, according to you, the western world will be an anarchic mess, as the dollar and the euro have collapsed and we are fighting on the streets for bread.

You seriously believe that?


and you seriously don't believe it?

i didn't say dollar will collapse next year,time will be uncertain.

Newt. I want polygamy legalized!



I think Obama will win but so far he is a nothing President compared to Bill Clinton or Ronald Reagan forget about comparisons to FDR or Abraham Lincoln.

I would like to see Ron Paul win. I'm torn on some of his ideas, though. I love that he'd love to end the wars, he's pro-life but would leave it up to the states, and pretty much cut spending like none other, but I don't like the idea of legalizing almost every drug and abandoning Israel (I know this is controversial but it just what I believe).


he's said that he would leave the drug's part upto the states also

 

it is very easy to understand what he is doing:

if people have good life,good economy,a job,then nobody would take drugs in the first place.

thats a massive over simplification... and completely incorrect


yeah but that what happens in a stable economy.

i might have not cleared it by adding 'nobody' but i meant in general most public.I apologize for that

 

'completely incorrect',nobody can really say that as its not a fact but more of a trend.



Obama will win, I can't see any of the GOP candidates (Gingrich and Romney), being a strong contender and that alone will probably be enough to give Obama a second term. Personally I do not have a preference.

There is  a difference between the Euro collapsing (losing the majority of its value) and being disbanded, reduced...  explain which you mean.

And you said shortly after for the dollar collapsing... I assumed you meant within the same calendar year... But as you are such a sage on these matters, I'm sure you wont mind giving a date.

 

i meant disbanded.but if it was disbanded then it would more of a new courrency overall as new laws will have to be implemented to suit the new structure if a few countries like germany and frace keep it.

and if the other economies fail,it will have an impact on better economies as well as they need consumers.

and better economies are still carrying inflated debts.and if the world goes to sdr or gold standard.then those inflated debts will be too big.

 

 

as for dollar collapse,it depends upon the events of next year.as dollar is still the reserve currency so they can print their way out of it.just that it will buy less products.

iran war,euro collapse,how well developing economies are able to take the load,it will depend on these issues.

Could you back that up with statistics? The 60s were a period of both economic prosperity and one of high drug use. If you'd like to prove that it's a fact, provide evidence.



 

 

Al Gore! :D

economic prosperity itself doesn't bring peace of mind but also freedom.

US was involved in vietname war and cold war and also the regulations increasing.

 

ii didn't say its a fact but a trend.

 

take the FED out,the regulatory taxes out and fiat currency then people will have true freedom and prosperity.

You can go back much further than that... recreational drug use was a pass time of the rich and powerful throughout history, ever since the Greeks and the Romans, possibly before.

their are 2 types of rich.one who work and become rich and others who remain rich as they use power to suppress other people

 

those latter people are the one you are talking about.
