Will the Current Whiff of Deflation Bring 2008 All Over Again? (+2K Views)

You don’t need [actual] deflation—a reduction in the outstanding supply of money—to have markets react to a decrease in the rate of money supply growth..., anticipate the eventual deflation [and begin to price it into the market. Remember 2008?] Oil prices fell from $147 in July of 2008 to $33 per barrel by early 2009. The S&P 500 went into free-fall starting in September of 2008 and bottomed out in March of 2009—falling almost 50% in six months.

I don’t know how government will lash out, but you are likely to see laws, restrictions and behavior you never imagined....Washington has demonstrated it will “print money” in whatever quantities necessary to stave off a sovereign bankruptcy and a Great Depression but this strategy cannot work forever because existing debt is already too high to be serviced.

No Fiscal Changes Coming Soon – or Ever – to U.S.! Here's Why

The ending in the U.S. will be similar to that in Greece. It is assured for the same reasons. The Democrats will lose the 2012 election...and the Republicans will control government for the next two years.

Only once before have I ever issued an economic alert, and this was at the onset of the very first credit downgrade in U.S. history by S&P. I do not take the word “alert” lightly.

U.S. Gov't Making Preperations for Expected Major Social Unrest Next Year

The Federal government is gearing up for unprecedented social unrest (worse than Greece or Spain) when Washington is forced to impose "austerity" plans next year... [which will be deemed absolutely necessary to avoid] runaway inflation [that would otherwise occur] to pay for the country's costly welfare programs like Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, Food Stamps and massive unfunded liabilities.
