The Economic Collapse

I am going to try to make as much noise about this crisis as I can, because we have never faced anything like this in modern times.  Global fertilizer prices have tripled, and we are being warned that this is going to have a catastrophic impact on food production all over the world.  On Monday, an article that I wrote about this went viral all over the Internet.  On Zero Hedge alone, my article has been viewed more than a quarter of a million times.  The reason why the article is so popular is because the corporate media in the United States is largely ignoring this story.  But it should be front page news all over the country, because this is going to affect every man, woman and child on the entire planet.

It is becoming clear that we are in far more trouble than we are being told.  In recent months, all forms of traditional energy have become significantly more expensive, and this is fueling price increases all over the planet.  This new global energy crisis is directly responsible for the astounding rise in fertilizer prices, it has resulted in a tremendous amount of pain at the pump for millions of average Americans, and since virtually everything that we buy has to be transported it is a major contributing factor to the “inflation boom” that we are currently witnessing.  Unfortunately, this is just the beginning.

They just have to suffocate anything that smells like freedom, don’t they?  After alienating and persecuting so many other groups of Americans, now the Biden administration is coming after cryptocurrency owners.  Biden administration officials are promising to bring “coherency” to the industry, but just like everything else that they touch it is far more likely that they are going to ruin the industry.  One of the positive things about the cryptocurrency industry has been how relatively free from regulation it has been all these years, but now Biden and his minions are absolutely determined to change that.  In fact, Bloomberg has reported that Biden is going to issue a cryptocurrency executive order as soon as next month… (Read More...)

This was supposed to be the year that things “got back to normal”, but here we are at the end of January and things have only gotten worse.  As we move forward into February and beyond, there are two key global shortages that we are going to want to keep a very close eye on.  One of them is the rapidly growing fertilizer shortage.  A few days ago, the Wall Street Journal ominously warned that “high fertilizer prices are weighing on farmers across the developing world”… (Read More...)

How would you feel if the value of your investments dropped by half in just a couple of months?  Fortunately, those that have invested in stocks and bonds are not suffering that sort of pain (yet), but another class of investors has been absolutely eviscerated in recent weeks.  For a long time, cryptocurrency investors laughed at all the rest of us as the value of their investments soared into the stratosphere.  Many of them felt that they were living proof that you really could “get rich quick”, but as I have always warned my readers you only make money in the markets if you get out in time.

Are we about to stumble into a war that nobody wants?  As I will explain below, it would be so easy to avoid a military conflict with Russia, but the people running our foreign policy have ruled out any easy solutions.  Instead, they seem absolutely determined to have some sort of a macho showdown with Russia, and that is extremely dangerous.  Sadly, these days most Americans can’t even identify our current Secretary of State, and the name “Jake Sullivan” means absolutely nothing to the vast majority of the population.  But these are the guys that are telling the senile old guy in the Oval Office what to do about Russia.

Death is in the air.  Unless you have been living in a cave for the past 12 months, you already know that this is true.  Old people are dying, young people are dying, famous people are dying, and countless hard working Americans that make up the backbone of our economy are dying.  For months, I have been writing articles about “the mystery of the missing workers”.  For the very first time in U.S. history, we have a severe shortage of able-bodied workers, and this is one of the biggest reasons why we are facing an unprecedented supply chain crisis today.  Millions of Americans that were working prior to the pandemic seem to have “disappeared” from the system, and now it has become clear that a lot of them have simply died.

Over the past couple of years, we have been hit by one thing after another.  Whenever it seems like things may be calming down, another crisis suddenly erupts, and as a result a lot of Americans have developed a really bad case of “crisis fatigue” at this point.  According to Google, crisis fatigue is “a burnout response to prolonged exposure to unexpected and stressful events”. Perhaps you can identify with that definition because it sounds exactly like what you are experiencing. Unfortunately, the truth is that what we have been through so far is just the beginning.  As I have been warning for years, as “the perfect storm” gets rolling it is just going to keep getting worse and worse.
