Worst Of All Worlds Coming!


(snippet)
A self-described optimist, Ortel nevertheless says the "worst of all worlds" is coming, characterized by falling asset prices and higher taxes, accompanied by a rising cost of core goods and services. Echoing the "stagflation" of the 1970s, he has coined the term "skew-flation" to describe what's ahead.

As to growing consensus the global economy is on the mend, Ortel believes both government "macro" data and corporate "micro" data are painting a much rosier picture vs. actual reality. The real macro story, he says, is there's too much productive capacity around the world and not enough demand. At the same time, private sector incomes are down while debt levels are up.

"We are still in the middle of systemic shock" and emergency government programs have temporarily kept the global economy on "life support," he says. "We think governments have little additional room left to continue to postpone the restructuring that's necessary around the world."

    Some "reason" they can impose martial law and herd millions of sheeple into all those FEMA camps they started building 10-15 YEARS ago.

  2. My TV tells me everything is ok, the economy is back, unemployment is up and the wars are going well. I am volunteering to take the vaccines now, all 3 of them, to be sure I do not get sick.

    I don't know what you guys are talking about? FEMA camps are for illegals and the flue shots are for the upcoming pandemic.

    Don't you guys watch TV?
