Why does it take Glenn Beck to put these pieces of the puzzle together? What is the mainstream media reporting on? Why do they not get it? Are they so much in love with Obama that their judgment and reasoning have left them, and now they are inept? I wonder how much longer they can hold this fiscal house of cards together. This is all going to catch up with us eventually; it’s just a matter of time. There will be come a time when faith in the United States will end; they will not believe us anymore, they will have lost confidence in our government. If you go to your bank you will see an FDIC sign that states how your deposits are “backed by the full faith and credit of the United States”. When people read that sign and then start laughing hysterically, then you will know that the end is near.

They don’t trust the dollar anymore, and rightfully so. The Chinese recently announced that it had acquired more than 400 tons of gold, and once the market was made aware of this news, the price rose sharply. Once the government debt is sufficiently large, the government bond market will break. The temptation will be to keep interest rates artificially low. Some Harvard grads have proposed that there be a negative interest rate in order to stimulate the economy. It is mind-boggling what kind of nonsense these people think. But this is exactly the same state of mind at the Federal Reserve. Without inflation, the entire system would have completely collapsed. They are postponing the true solution.
