FED Policies to Hit Retirees Hardest

In a bit of holiday news no one will care about , the Treasury announced it would return to selling twenty-year treasury bonds to aid in funding the nation ’ s trillion-dollar deficit .
It was 1986 when the Treasury last issued twenty-year paper .
Of course the question is : who or what will be the buyers ?
Daniel R. Amerman , CFA , is keeping a steady eye on the Treasury and Fed ’ s operations and has come to the conclusion , In just the last four months , the U.S. government has spent $ 457 billion—almost @ @ @ @ @ @ @ taken in .
In that same time and using monetary creation , the Federal Reserve has created and put $ 457 billion in new cash into the financial system , either buying U.S. Treasuries or funding the ownership of those Treasuries by others .
A few folks are aware of the repo tantrum which occurred last September .
Overnite rates for money secured by US debt popped to 10 percent , signaling a collateral crises or at least a financial plumbing problem due to the financial mandarins trying to sneak away from the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the Fed ’ s bottomless punch bowl .
But , the markets were ( and are ) still thirsty , so to speak .
Murray Rothbard in The Mystery of Banking explains the logistics of Fed-created inflation , at least as it was prior to the book ’ s first printing in 1983 .
For instance , he makes no mention of repurchase agreements ( repos ) in the book .
Instead , Rothbard writes , There is another form of financing deficits which is now obsolete in the modern Western world @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of finance .
That was for the central government to simply print money ( Treasury cash ) and spend it .
This , of course , was highly inflationary… The Super Bowl halftime show with Jennifer Lopez and Shakira , appeared to feature several children in cages as well as a suggestive pole dance and obscene gestures .
If the Fed were to finance new Treasury bond issues directly , as it was only allowed by law to do for a while during World War II , this step would be wildly inflationary @ @ @ @ @ @ @ an increased $ 100 billion not just of newly-created bank money , but of “ high-powered ” bank money—demand deposits at the Fed .
These days , the commercial banking system isn ’ t where the action is .
Instead , it ’ s the shadow banking system that needs direct feeding to goose inflation—at least inflation in asset prices , and also to keep the debt service on the nation ’ s debt as low as possible .
Not low as in print-money low , but , as Amerman writes , the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ central bank is supposed to do , and effectively funding the growth in the debt at well below free market interest rates via monetary creation on a massive scale—without admitting that it is doing so .
this funding is not through direct purchases from the U.S. Treasury but through the markets , which is actually far more effective for what the Federal Reserve desires .
The Fed does not just want to fund the national debt , but to control interest rates in the markets in the process , and this means they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ buy the Treasury debt .
( There is also a current legal prohibition against direct purchases , but that law could be changed in a day if the government wanted to use that much less effective means of funding the debt ) .
Repo rates between 1.52 and 1.55 percent are the next best thing to what Rothbard described as “ wildly inflationary.
” Amerman explains , This is all about funding the fast growing national debt at lower rates than what rational investors would accept in a free market , and the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ problem , not the cause .
What ’ s old is new again , and Amerman says that the Fed used the same weapon in 2019 that it did in 2008 : mo ’ money .
After almost 11 years of comparative calm and without repo market interventions , the Federal Reserve stopped the crisis in 2019 much as it had stopped the last major crisis in 2008 , by creating new money on a massive scale and lending it to the banks and other financial entities that were at risk .
In @ @ @ @ @ @ @ growth in the United States national debt that week .
Many people believe this economy is rockin ’ and rollin ’ .
Look at the stock market .
Look at the real estate market .
Interest rates are low ; unemployment is low .
What ’ s not to like ?
Wall Street and Washington , DC , want to be happy , so the economists at the Eccles Building , while decreasing total repo loans , have doubled the total funding of the national debt .
“ It is the Fed ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ now that dominant source of cumulative deficit financing , ” writes Amerman .
Retirees , receiving scant interest on their savings , are banking on living off the proceeds of selling financial assets .
Amerman concludes , The rapid growth of the national debt is also likely to become one of the biggest future threats to standards of living in retirement .

In a bit of holiday news no one will care about, the Treasury announced it would return to selling twenty-year treasury bonds to aid in funding the nation’s trillion-dollar deficit.
It was 1986 when the Treasury last issued twenty-year paper. Of course the question is: who or what will be the buyers?
Daniel R. Amerman, CFA, is keeping a steady eye on the Treasury and Fed’s operations and has come to the conclusion,
In just the last four months, the U.S. government has spent $457 billion—almost half a trillion dollars—more than it has taken in. In that same time and using monetary creation, the Federal Reserve has created and put $457 billion in new cash into the financial system, either buying U.S. Treasuries or funding the ownership of those Treasuries by others.
A few folks are aware of the repo tantrum which occurred last September. Overnite rates for money secured by US debt popped to 10 percent, signaling a collateral crises or at least a financial plumbing problem due to the financial mandarins trying to sneak away from the party with $100 billion that was in the Fed’s bottomless punch bowl.
But, the markets were (and are) still thirsty, so to speak. Murray Rothbard in The Mystery of Banking explains the logistics of Fed-created inflation, at least as it was prior to the book’s first printing in 1983. For instance, he makes no mention of repurchase agreements (repos) in the book. Instead, Rothbard writes,
There is another form of financing deficits which is now obsolete in the modern Western world but which was formerly the standard method of finance. That was for the central government to simply print money (Treasury cash) and spend it. This, of course, was highly inflationary…
The Super Bowl halftime show with Jennifer Lopez and Shakira, appeared to feature several children in cages as well as a suggestive pole dance and obscene gestures.
Rothbard goes on:
If the Fed were to finance new Treasury bond issues directly, as it was only allowed by law to do for a while during World War II, this step would be wildly inflationary. For the Treasury would now have an increased $100 billion not just of newly-created bank money, but of “high-powered” bank money—demand deposits at the Fed.
These days, the commercial banking system isn’t where the action is. Instead, it’s the shadow banking system that needs direct feeding to goose inflation—at least inflation in asset prices, and also to keep the debt service on the nation’s debt as low as possible. Not low as in print-money low, but, as Amerman writes,
the Federal Reserve is doing what no responsible central bank is supposed to do, and effectively funding the growth in the debt at well below free market interest rates via monetary creation on a massive scale—without admitting that it is doing so.
Amerman echos Rothbard, pointing out that
this funding is not through direct purchases from the U.S. Treasury but through the markets, which is actually far more effective for what the Federal Reserve desires. The Fed does not just want to fund the national debt, but to control interest rates in the markets in the process, and this means they need to go through the markets to buy the Treasury debt. (There is also a current legal prohibition against direct purchases, but that law could be changed in a day if the government wanted to use that much less effective means of funding the debt).
Repo rates between 1.52 and 1.55 percent are the next best thing to what Rothbard described as “wildly inflationary.” Amerman explains,
This is all about funding the fast growing national debt at lower rates than what rational investors would accept in a free market, and the repo crisis was a symptom of that problem, not the cause.
What’s old is new again, and Amerman says that the Fed used the same weapon in 2019 that it did in 2008: mo’ money.
After almost 11 years of comparative calm and without repo market interventions, the Federal Reserve stopped the crisis in 2019 much as it had stopped the last major crisis in 2008, by creating new money on a massive scale and lending it to the banks and other financial entities that were at risk. In the process—the Federal Reserve effectively funded the growth in the United States national debt that week.
Many people believe this economy is rockin’ and rollin’. Look at the stock market. Look at the real estate market. Interest rates are low; unemployment is low. What’s not to like?
Wall Street and Washington, DC, want to be happy, so the economists at the Eccles Building, while decreasing total repo loans, have doubled the total funding of the national debt. “It is the Fed’s purchase of Treasury obligations that is now that dominant source of cumulative deficit financing,” writes Amerman.
Retirees, receiving scant interest on their savings, are banking on living off the proceeds of selling financial assets. Amerman concludes,
The rapid growth of the national debt is also likely to become one of the biggest future threats to standards of living in retirement.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) made herself the center of attention Tuesday night, when after President Donald Trump’s third State of the Union address she proceeded to tear her copy of his speech.
When asked after the SOTU why she tore up the speech, Pelosi responded, “Because it was the courteous thing to do considering the alternative.”
The Democrat California rep’s childish temper tantrum – done in full view of cameras, but notably behind President Trump’s back – immediately exploded on social media, where it spawned several memes.
Political cartoonists also seized on the divisive moment:

Officials are warning that a homeless camp in Austin, Texas, which is typical of such camps across the nation, is polluting the local wateshed.
Footage from a Fox 5 report shows garbage and recluse contaminating a watershed outside an underground homeless camp that was dug under a road.
“[The homeless] have become very resourceful in dealing with the lack of no power, so they [use] an [electric] generator we have to account for that leaking into the watershed,” a firefighter said.
Fox 5 reported that the local watershed department visited the site, which is littered with used needles, back in July after receiving complaints.
A hazmat team also visited the site as well.
“Last week, the city began cleaning up homeless camps and watersheds as part of a $250,000 year-long contract that could be extended,” the outlet reported. “The city is flexible on how many sites they will clean up this year, but right now they’re slated to clean up approximately 20.”
Austin, like many other cities, has undeveloped ‘green belts’ with streams of water which attract homeless camps due to their seclusion away from populated areas.
This, however, leads to routine pollution of the watersheds.
Last year, NBC4 News reported that a homeless camp on the banks of the San Gabriel River is threatening the water supply for the city of Azusa, Calif.
“…Over here [at the river] is actually where Azusa gets its water supply, yet on the banks are literally bags of feces and urine,” according to a reporter. “Everything that ends up there ends up in the water supply.”

The so-called “ Cocoon Galaxy ” not only has a unique shape , it has a rare double-nucleus structure , astronomers report in a new paper .
After studying data from optical and radio telescopes based on the ground and in space , a team of astronomers determined that a galaxy known as NGC 4490 ( and nicknamed the “ Cocoon Galaxy ” because of its shape ) has “ a clear double nucleus structure , ” according to their paper .

The paper reporting the discovery is now online and has been accepted for publication in the Astrophysical Journal .
First author is Allen Lawrence , who earned a master ’ s degree in astronomy from Iowa State University in 2018 and continues to work with Iowa State astronomers .

Lawrence started the study in 2013 while taking astronomy classes at the University of Wisconsin-Madison .
He had the chance to study one of two galaxy systems and picked NGC 4490 , which is interacting with a smaller galaxy , NGC 4485 .
The system is about 20 % the size of the Milky Way , located in the Northern Hemisphere and about 30 million light years from Earth .
“ I saw the double nucleus about seven years ago , ” Lawrence said @ @ @ @ @ @ @ — or nobody had ever done anything with it before.
” Some astronomers may have seen one nucleus with their optical telescopes .
And others may have seen the other with their radio telescopes .
But he said the two groups never compared notes to observe and describe the double nucleus .
The new paper says both nuclei are similar in size , mass and luminosity .
It says both are similar in mass and luminosity to the nuclei observed in other interacting galaxy pairs .

newswars--2020-02-05--AOC: “Virulent Racist” Limbaugh Shouldn’t Have Received Medal of Freedom

President Trump should not have awarded the Medal of Freedom to “ virulent racist ” Rush Limbaugh , according to Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez .
The Democrat House representative from New York had lots to say about the award presented to Limbaugh Tuesday night at the 2020 State of the Union Address , despite refusing to attend the event .
For one , the award is a high honor that should not have been bestowed to a “ virulent racist , ” Cortez said .
“ The presidential medal of freedom is an extraordinarily sacred , um , award .
We @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the same level as Rosa Parks , you know , for example , in terms of their contributions to American progress .
Uh , Rush Limbaugh is a virulent racist , ” Ocasio says , without offering proof to back up the slanderous remark .

“ …Even just on top of that , uh , to do it in the middle of the SOTU and not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as it has , there are all sorts of norms being violated , not just for people ’ s humanity , but also it truly just cheapens the value of it.

She also had a problem with Limbaugh ’ s surprised reaction at receiving the medal , which she says he should have expected since it ’ d been in the news all day .
“ Him pretending to be surprised was such a joke @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
There have been multiple reports from multiple news outlets saying that Rush Limbaugh was going to receive the Medal of Freedom , and then Trump announced it and he had to pretend that this was some kind of Oprah moment was so disingenuous.
” Actually , the award possibly did come as a surprise .
Reports claimed the President told reporters he was interested in awarding Limbaugh the medal as early as next week , but added he would prefer to do it during the SOTU .

Limbaugh , who ’ s hosted his influential conservative talk show for over 30 years , announced during his Monday broadcast he ’ d been diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer .
Despite attending the 2019 SOTU , Ocasio-Cortez announced Tuesday mere hours ahead of the event that she @ @ @ @ @ @ @ didn ’ t want to “ use [ her ] presence at a state ceremony to normalize Trump ’ s lawless conduct & subversion of the Constitution.

Self-described long-time Democrats say they ’ re quitting the party over House Leader Nancy Pelosi ( D-Calif. ) ripping up President Trump ’ s State of the Union speech .

“ I ’ ll probably still be a Democrat [ in ideology ] but as far as electing a god-danged Democrat , never again.

The fact that these sound like older Democrats who are quitting highlights the growing divisions within @ @ @ @ @ @ @ much toward a progressive , globalist orientation that it alienated older Democrats who still believe in American exceptionalism .
It can ’ t be understated that these divisions began well before President Trump was even elected given how he won Democratic rust belt states in 2016 by campaigning on creating jobs for the working-class , which used to be a Democratic tenet decades ago .

Self-described long-time Democrats say they’re quitting the party over House Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) ripping up President Trump’s State of the Union speech.
“I’ve been a Democrat for 70-something years, and what I’ve seen tonight of the Democrat Party, I am changing my mind,” one caller said on C-Span. “I’ll probably still be a Democrat [in ideology] but as far as electing a god-danged Democrat, never again.”
Two other callers echoed similar sentiments.
“I’m a Democrat as well, but no longer will I vote Democrat,” said a female caller. “I think it’s outrageous that they sat there when all these good things are happening to our country and how much we love our country, and they looked like they hated our country.”
“And Nancy Pelosi, the whole time she’s sitting up there with a disgusted look on her face.”
“It’s outrageous, I will never vote Democrat again and I’m sick of it and my whole family feels the same way… my husband and my friends are sitting here, all former Democrats who voted for Hillary last time, and therefore never, ever will we vote Democrat ever again.”
And another caller said she is “literally disgusted” with Pelosi.
“…The way she teared up the speech behind [Trump] at the end, I was a registered Democrat, I’ve gone independent and I’m leaning GOP now,” she said.
The fact that these sound like older Democrats who are quitting highlights the growing divisions within the party after it has shifted so much toward a progressive, globalist orientation that it alienated older Democrats who still believe in American exceptionalism.
It can’t be understated that these divisions began well before President Trump was even elected given how he won Democratic rust belt states in 2016 by campaigning on creating jobs for the working-class, which used to be a Democratic tenet decades ago.


newswars--2020-02-05--‘When They Go Low, We Go Lower’: Joy Behar Defends Pelosi’s Speech-Ripping Tantrum at SOTU

“ The View ” host Joy Behar vehemently defended House Speaker Nancy Pelosi ’ s decision to tear up President Trump ’ s State of the Union speech .
Behar launched into an unhinged rant Wednesday justifying Pelosi ’ s disgraceful action , calling Trump administration officials “ criminals and fascists ” and asserting that everything Trump said in his address was a lie .
“ She ’ s playing hard ball like he does , ” Behar shrugged .
“ When they go low , we go lower .
That ’ s the only thing that works with these @ @ @ @ @ @ @ country right now .
Sorry , but that ’ s what works.
” Rather than encourage viewers to look into the many positive facts of Trump ’ s speech , Behar claimed that Nancy Pelosi ’ s facial expressions during the SOTU address alone revealed when the president was lying .
“ You didn ’ t really need to have a fact checker , ” Behar said .
“ All you had to do was watch Nancy ’ s face .
Every time he lied she went like this or like this or @ @ @ @ @ @ @ he opened his mouth practically he was lying.
” Behar ’ s “ when they go low , we go lower ” comment refers to Michelle Obama ’ s 2016 comment responding to Trump ’ s brawler style of politics , saying that the Democrats ’ slogan should be , “ when they go low , we go high.
” Her comments are similar to former Attorney General Eric Holder ’ s 2018 comments , declaring that “ when they go low , we kick them , ” in a reference to the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ violence against conservatives .
“ Michelle [ Obama ] always says ‘ When they go low , we go high.
’ No .
No .
When they go low , we kick them , ” Holder said .
“ That ’ s what this new Democratic Party is about.
” Indeed , it appears Behar is honoring that new legacy .
This impeachment charade has blown-up in the Democrat and Neocon faces , but it doesn ’ t end there .
Why has Nancy Pelosi , Adam Schiff and a significant number of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ impeachment of President Trump ?
Are they using this process to fish for information about other possible indictments sealed in other matters ?
Something has the Democrat leadership and neocons scared .

On February 3, the Turkish military reported that six Turkish servicemen had been killed in an attack by the Syrian Army.

Efforts to liberate the territory have been complicated by the large numbers of civilians concentrated in the region, with terrorists accused of using them as human shields.
Turkey has expressed concerns about the prospects of tens or even hundreds of thousands of civilian refugees fleeing across the border.

Liberal white women across America are paying $ 2,500 to attend dinners at which they are lectured by two non-white women about how racist they are .
The Guardian reports on Race to Dinner , a scheme where co-founders Regina Jackson , who is black , and Saira Rao , who “ identifies ” as Indian-American , make white guilt-riddled rich white women admit to their subconscious bigotry .
“ Recently , I have been driving around , seeing a black person , and having an assumption that they are up to no good , ” said Alison Gubser .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ that ’ s no good !
This is a human , just doing their thing .
Why do I think that ?

Participants were also asked , “ What was a racist thing you did recently ?
” Jess Campbell-Swanson struggled to prostrate herself adequately , stuttering , “ I want to hire people of color .
Not because I want to be … a white savior .
I have explored my need for validation … I ’ m working @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I ’ m struggling , ” before giving up .
She subsequently committed to writing a journal to note down “ thoughts that could be considered racist.
” Another woman , Morgan Richards , admitted that she was still potentially racist despite adopting two black children .
When someone patronizingly labeled her a ‘ white savior ’ for adopting them , Richards responded , “ What I went through to be a mother , I didn ’ t care if they were black.
” “ So , you admit it is stooping low @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Rao challenged her , to which Richards responded by accepting that the undertone of her statement was “ racist.
” The organizers say the events are proving extremely popular and that 15 dinners have been held so far ( total cost $ 37,500 ) .
“ I understand polls show liberal white women are the only racial group on the planet who view their own in-group negatively but dropping $ 2,500 on a dinner just to wallow in ethnomasochism seems like a bit much , ” commented Chris Menahan .

Leftists spewed more hate and vitriol toward Rush Limbaugh Tuesday night after President Trump awarded the legendary talk radio host the Presidential Medal of Freedom in recognition of charity work and dedication to the well being of the nation.
Trump instigated the surprise honour for Limbaugh following his revelation that he is battling stage four lung cancer.
Democrats sat silently while the First Lady gave the medal to a clearly emotionally overcome Limbaugh in a scene that for most was positively moving.
“Rush, in recognition of all that you have done for our Nation, the millions of people a day that you speak to and inspire…I am proud to announce tonight that you will be receiving…the Presidential Medal of Freedom.” –@realDonaldTrump Congratulations Rush! #SOTU #SOTU2020 pic.twitter.com/wIYdghSSHT — Rep. Matt Gaetz (@RepMattGaetz) February 5, 2020
Not so much for leftists, however, who having already celebrated the man’s illness, immediately took to their media platforms and social media dens to express their disgust:
Giving Rush Limbaugh the Presidential Medal of Freedom is one of the most disgusting this I’ve ever heard. Who’s next… Jeffrey Epstein for his humanitarian work with runaway teens? — Billy Baldwin (@BillyBaldwin) February 5, 2020
Rush Limbaugh gets a medal of freedom? Give me a break. Does all the Trumpian morons get medals? What an American disgrace. I won’t miss this idiot. pic.twitter.com/GADQk0p1rQ — Howard H (@Howard230) February 5, 2020
It just perfectly encapsulates the Trump administration’s massive and absolute incompetence when Rush Limbaugh and a 100-year-old Tuskegee Airman are in the same room and Rush Limbaugh is the one going home with a Presidential Medal of Freedom. — A. Sharon (@ASharon004) February 5, 2020
Rush Limbaugh called a Georgetown student a “slut” and a “prostitute” because she advocated for the insurance coverage of birth control. Trump just gave him the Presidential Medal of Freedom. — Laura Bassett (@LEBassett) February 5, 2020
Rush Limbaugh has spent his entire career spreading hate, bigotry, and baseless conspiracy theories. He does not deserve the Presidential Medal of Freedom. Period. End. Of. Story. #SOTU — Ryan Knight 🏳🌈 🗽 (@ProudResister) February 5, 2020
In case you were wondering how I’m doing with my nausea, trump just awarded racist Rush Limbaugh the Presidential Medal of Freedom. And Melania pinned it to him. So, about 4 barf bags. #SOTU — BrooklynDad_Defiant! (@mmpadellan) February 5, 2020
I’ve seen Rush Limbaugh support charity. Cancer’s awful. I don’t wish it on anyone. He also has long record of terrible deeds, like calling Sandra Fluke a “slut” and “prostitute”. Medal of Freedom is highest civilian honor, not to be given out as a TV prop to a political cronie. — Ana Navarro-Cárdenas (@ananavarro) February 5, 2020
I wouldn’t say anything negative about Rush Limbaugh because of his health – may he beat cancer – but to give him the Presidential Medal of Freedom DURING the #SOTU? That hateful rabble-rouser? Is this the bottom? — ⚜Rob Anderson for Louisiana (@RobAnderson2018) February 5, 2020
Rush Limbaugh is one of the most hateful assholes ever to enter the political arena. Trump just made the Presidential Medal of Freedom fucking worthless. — Andrew Goss 👊USAF👊 (@Goss30Goss) February 5, 2020

Donald Trump has decided that the key to improving his weak 2020 odds is to give the Presidential Medal of Freedom to flaming piece of dogshit Rush Limbaugh. No really, this is what Trump is focused on. Told you he doesn’t have a clue about 2020. Work hard and we’ll beat him. — Palmer Report (@PalmerReport) February 5, 2020

newswars--2020-02-06--The Coronavirus Outbreak Shows “No Signs Of Slowing” As Crematoriums Burn Bodies 24 Hours A Day

The outbreak of this mysterious new coronavirus is getting more frightening with each passing day .
As you will see below , even the mainstream media is admitting that the number of cases shows “ no signs of slowing ” even though the Chinese government has implemented draconian measures in a desperate attempt to contain the virus .
Many in the western world continue to insist that this disease is not any more dangerous than the common flu , but the Chinese never locked down entire cities for the flu before .
In recent days , the images that have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ absolutely horrifying .
If these images are accurate , people are literally dropping dead in restaurants , in shopping malls and in public transportation hubs .
Dr. Francis Boyle , who drafted the Biological Weapons Act , joins Owen Shroyer on The Alex Jones Show to expose the 2019 Wuhan coronavirus as an offensive biological warfare weapon that the World Health Organization ( WHO ) already knows about .
At the epicenter of this outbreak , crematoriums in Wuhan are burning bodies 24 hours a day as they try to keep up with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , and the workers at those facilities are completely and totally overwhelmed .
When I last posted an article about this pandemic on The Economic Collapse Blogthree days ago , there were 14,637 confirmed cases and the death toll had risen to 305 .
Since that time , both numbers have nearly doubled… The death toll and number of people infected by the Wuhan coronavirus continues to grow , with no signs of slowing despite severe quarantine and population control methods put in place in central China .
The number of confirmed cases @ @ @ @ @ @ @ morning , with more than 28,000 of those in China .
The number of cases in China grew by 3,694 , or 15 % , on the previous day .
There have been 563 deaths so far , all but two of which were in China , with one in the Philippines and one in Hong Kong .
Can you imagine how bad things are going to get if the numbers keep roughly doubling every three days ?
Of course many are extremely skeptical that the official numbers that the Chinese government is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ seem to indicate that the situation is far worse than we are being told , and that includes firsthand testimony from a funeral home worker in Wuhan… According to Mr. Yun , his facility needs “ at least 100 body bags ” every single day .
If every other cremation center in the city is handling a similar workload , that would strongly indicate that the true death toll is far , far larger than the official numbers we are being given .
Video footage that has been circulating on social media also @ @ @ @ @ @ @ s claims… Here in the western world , a lot of people are not taking this crisis very seriously yet .
But over in China things are happening that are absolutely crazy .
If you can believe it , Chinese authorities have actually started locking some victims inside their own homes… Eventually the police will go back and check on those victims .
If they are no longer living , they will be put in body bags and shipped off to a crematorium .
Could we soon see similar things happen in western @ @ @ @ @ @ @ but it has become quite clear that this is a very serious outbreak .
Out of all the stories I have come across , perhaps the most heartbreaking of all is the story of a woman that passed the virus on to her newborn baby… Can you imagine how heartbroken that mother must be right now ?
Unfortunately , it looks like it won ’ t be too long before this is a true global pandemic .
At this point , Singapore and South Korea both have more than 20 confirmed cases… And @ @ @ @ @ @ @ have our 12th confirmed case… As I keep stressing , we still don ’ t really know how bad this outbreak will eventually become in the western world .
We have entered a time of great chaos for the entire planet , and this virus certainly has the potential to greatly accelerate that chaos .
But this outbreak could also fizzle out soon , and then it would be regarded by most people in western countries as a “ false alarm ” .
For now , we will continue to carefully watch the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Health Organization says that there are “ no effective remedies ” for this virus , and the number of cases continues to escalate .
China has already been completely gripped by panic , and if this outbreak continues to spread it is only a matter of time before more nations are paralyzed by fear as well .

When I last posted an article about this pandemic on The Economic Collapse Blogthree days ago, there were 14,637 confirmed cases and the death toll had risen to 305.
Since that time, both numbers have nearly doubled…
The death toll and number of people infected by the Wuhan coronavirus continues to grow, with no signs of slowing despite severe quarantine and population control methods put in place in central China. The number of confirmed cases globally stood at 28,256 as of Thursday morning, with more than 28,000 of those in China. The number of cases in China grew by 3,694, or 15%, on the previous day. There have been 563 deaths so far, all but two of which were in China, with one in the Philippines and one in Hong Kong.
Can you imagine how bad things are going to get if the numbers keep roughly doubling every three days?
Of course many are extremely skeptical that the official numbers that the Chinese government is giving us are accurate. Anecdotal reports seem to indicate that the situation is far worse than we are being told, and that includes firsthand testimony from a funeral home worker in Wuhan…
One worker at the Caidan Funeral Home, in suburban Wuhan, has claimed employees are working “24/7” to deal with the bodies, reports Epoch Times. The worker said staff are exhausted and are working without proper equipment. Identified only as Mr Yun, he said: “90 percent of our employees are working 24/7 … we couldn’t go back home.” Chillingly, he claimed: “All Wuhan cremation chambers are working 24 hours.”
According to Mr. Yun, his facility needs “at least 100 body bags” every single day. If every other cremation center in the city is handling a similar workload, that would strongly indicate that the true death toll is far, far larger than the official numbers we are being given.
Video footage that has been circulating on social media also seems to back up Mr. Yun’s claims…
Meanwhile, videos from workers dealing with the crisis have been circulating on social media, including one from a worker at a Wuhan funeral home who shared footage of more than 10 bodies lying on gurneys, lined up for cremation. Some netizens also shared videos they shot within different hospitals in Wuhan, showing bodies waiting to be transferred from the hospitals to funeral homes.
Here in the western world, a lot of people are not taking this crisis very seriously yet.
But over in China things are happening that are absolutely crazy.
If you can believe it, Chinese authorities have actually started locking some victims inside their own homes…
The clip shows two officers padlocking the door while asking the resident inside, “Do you have enough rice and vegetables at home?“ “I think so,” responds the person inside. “OK, so don’t come out,” responds the officer, adding, “We are locking your door from outside. Don’t come out. It’s good for everyone.”
Eventually the police will go back and check on those victims.
If they are no longer living, they will be put in body bags and shipped off to a crematorium.
Could we soon see similar things happen in western countries?
Let us hope not, but it has become quite clear that this is a very serious outbreak.
Out of all the stories I have come across, perhaps the most heartbreaking of all is the story of a woman that passed the virus on to her newborn baby…
A Chinese baby has been diagnosed with coronavirus just 30 hours after a woman who had tested positive for the deadly disease gave birth in the epicenter city of Wuhan, according to state media. Doctors at the Wuhan Children’s Hospital on Wednesday cited the case as evidence that pregnant women infected with the virus may be able to pass it to their unborn children, according to state broadcaster CCTV.
Can you imagine how heartbroken that mother must be right now?
Unfortunately, it looks like it won’t be too long before this is a true global pandemic. At this point, Singapore and South Korea both have more than 20 confirmed cases…
Singapore announced a new confirmed case of the coronavirus today, bringing its total to 25. South Korea also confirmed four more cases today, bringing the national total to 23.
And here in the United States we now have our 12th confirmed case…
Wisconsin has confirmed its first case of coronavirus, state officials said on Wednesday. The new patient, of undisclosed age and gender, is the twelfth confirmed case in the US after testing positive for the virus at University of Wisconsin Hospital in Madison.
As I keep stressing, we still don’t really know how bad this outbreak will eventually become in the western world.
We have entered a time of great chaos for the entire planet, and this virus certainly has the potential to greatly accelerate that chaos.
But this outbreak could also fizzle out soon, and then it would be regarded by most people in western countries as a “false alarm”.
For now, we will continue to carefully watch the latest developments each day. The World Health Organization says that there are “no effective remedies” for this virus, and the number of cases continues to escalate. China has already been completely gripped by panic, and if this outbreak continues to spread it is only a matter of time before more nations are paralyzed by fear as well.
