		<description>When you consider the timely coincidence of the implosion of Market Fundamentalism at precisely the same time as Peak Oil arrives, and Climate Change accelerates beyond even the most pessimistic forecasts, it is tempting to see a Divine, rather than Invisible, Hand at work. It is precisely the same tiny class of hyper-avaricious parasites who have financed the propagandising of Market Absolutism, and who have bought the entire apparatus and the apparatchiks of &#039;democratic&#039; politics in the West, who were the most vociferous Denialists refuting Climate Change. Now that enough of the public, forced by drought, floods and record temperatures, to abjure the habits of a life-time and use their brains, have woken up to the unfolding disaster, the parasites, through their total dominance of the media, are peddling a new pabulum, Market Opportunism, the insane lie that it is only through &#039;Market Methods&#039; that we can avert catastrophe. As ever the cure for our self-inflicted disease is to be more of the same. One is tempted to recall the old saying that those whom the Gods wish to destroy they first make mad. However I think a more sinister possibility must be entertained. It is surely possible that the parasite class has determined that the world could indeed be remade into a paradise, just so long as 90% of the &#039;useless eaters&#039;, particularly the non-white ones, are gotten rid of. Is it really inconceivable that the seemingly deliberate sabotaging of action on climate change is indeed a calculated ploy? One estimate I saw recently had the excess deaths by mid-century from collapse of civilization due to climate change and oil depletion running at 200 million a year. Certainly 500 years of Western imperialism has shown us again and again that the European powers have no compunction in engaging in mass murder, either through sins of omission or commission. A West, ensconced behind walls of military armaments, up to and including nuclear and biological weapons, where we know there have been years of research to find &#039;ethnically specific&#039; pathogens, or to create such through genetic manipulation, might just imagine it can ride out the de-population of much of the world. I&#039;m certainly convinced our leaders, mostly, in my opinion, undisguised psychopaths, are capable of it, and the general Western populations have been well indoctrinated in Islamo- and all the other racist phobias, so their acquiesence can be assumed. Any &#039;race traitors&#039; or &#039;self-hating Westerners&#039; will get the Guantanamo treatment, or worse. Then at least the apparent imbecility of our leaders will make some sense.</description>

		<description>You might try www.goldismoney.info

They have several subforums covering many different subjects.

I use a 1964 silver dime. I&#039;ll show someone the dime and ask &quot;How many postage stamps would this buy in 1964? They will have to be reminded that a first class stamp was 4 cents. The answer 2.5. Then you ask them how many it will buy now. Current cost of first class stamp = 41 cents.  This shows that silver is very undervalued. The dollar has lost nine tenths of it&#039;s purchasing power in 43 years. The thing to do right away is trade all your dollars for silver before it loses the other one tenth of it&#039;s value. Then in a couple of years your 1964 silver dime will buy you a nice dinner out with your family.</description>

		<description>Hi Mike great info, I like what you do but there is just one problem...How do i explain this to highschool kids?  SIV&#039;s and Conduits is even out of my league of understanding. I believe this is fantastic information for people who understand all this financial jargon except like most americans i&#039;m not too smart and I can only read at a 5th grade level. Do you know where i can find a DUMBED DOWN version of your reports? 
I would really appreciate it if you could direct me to where i might get more information but in more simple to understand terms. Any suggestions. Thank you in advance.
Warmest regards, Drew</description>
