investmentwatchblog--2020-08-13--America On The Road To Ruin! Long Term Economic Collapse, Worse Than The Great Depression!

Examining the economy through what ’ s going on with the so-called regular American ’ s life , we ’ re still going to an economic collapse .
However , you wouldn ’ t be able to tell that by only looking at the stocks .
Of course not , they wouldn ’ t tell us the truth , since lying about the economy is what guarantees their means to continue thriving while Main Street – the real economy – is crumbling down .
All sorts of false narratives are being fed to spook away any suspicion that these exuberant @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and will not hold up long-term .
In this channel , we have heavily discussed in previous economic collapse videos how a V-shape economic recovery actually means… no recovery at all .
It marks the immediate stage after a big crash , namely , the reaction to the health crisis ’ consequences , which is still unfolding and it does not seem to be leaving us as soon as we thought .
Therefore , there are many other stages to follow , and this alleged economic “ recuperation ” was not magic or @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , as CEOs and investors are trying to imply so that they look like they are helping to boost this “ miraculous ” upturn .
In fact , it was expected .
We have announced that this was exactly what it was going to happen , you can check our previous videos and you ’ ll find it .
Many economic experts had alerted this response would be coming , and it wouldn ’ t necessarily mean that anything would be coming back to normal .
At this point , there is no @ @ @ @ @ @ @ proof , we ’ re going to start by analyzing the ambiguities on the statement of a renowned stock advisor in an attempt to discredit the IHS Markit survey , in which it has been disclosed that the services sector of the economy is not improving but has merely leveled out .
That is to say , the survey shows that the business economy is neither falling any further nor is it recovering .
In his article , the investment advisor tries to portray the survey as inaccurate , in a pitiful attack @ @ @ @ @ @ @ want to be told – or doesn ’ t want to believe in .
So , if you ’ re sitting , hold on tight to your chairs and grab some popcorn , because we ’ re about to break down some fake arguments in here .
His statement starts with an obvious affirmation , to seem that he is trying to make a legit point : “ Services are some 80 % of the US economy and so we can take their growth or contraction as a pretty good proxy for the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ then , he goes on with the most twisted graphic examination possible : “ The seasonally adjusted final IHS Markit US Services PMI Business Activity Index registered 50.0 at the start of the third quarter , up from 47.9 in June and improving on the ‘ flash ’ estimate of 49.6 , to signal a stabilization in service sector business activity.
” Seriously ?
So now the floor rate that used to demonstrate a clear decline in the economy in previous years now represents an economic stabilization ?
If anything it displays a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ but good wordplay , pal .
The thing is – we know better than that .
The public is waking up to the fact that these rates say much more about how the richer are still managing to profit as the rest of the economy is collapsing .

This type of affirmation is sustained under the false pretense that the reopening of some businesses is what is solidifying @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the economy is barely standing up on its feet , bending over on the Fed ’ s liquidity injections to survive .

80 % of those were stripped bare .
Accordingly , it is optimistically expected that less than 40 % of all these businesses could have a chance to come back .
On this note , the IHS Markit survey matches perfectly to the recent prognosis regarding the future of service businesses on the ground of the real economy…

Two months after the reopening, more than 50% of the shops remain closed. 80% of those were stripped bare.

Words are important , to be sure that we are talking about the same things and situations .
We need them so that we can somehow “ categorize ” things .
Because we are living in a world where we want to have reasons and “ boxes ” where we can put all those reasons for everything .
We want to then file away the actions that we are going to take because of those reasons .
We want everything to make sense because it is easier to work in a situation where everything has sense and reason , and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ solution to everything .
Not to mention we want to live in a world in which we want to make a stand – a hard stand – because we live by norms and rules that most people think are written in the stone .
It will not work in that way .
Not in a real and serious SHTF .
Right here I want to make a point that I do not classify myself as ‘ better than the average prepper ’ in anyway , because I do not live with such a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I do not have a higher quality of daily life because of this , I do feel better prepared for serious situations because I do not ‘ need ’ to always have structures and clear reasoning for my actions .
This enables me to decide and act more impulsively and intuitively because I do not need to engage in a lengthy or detailed ‘ reasoning ’ process .
WROL is a word that most people imagine describes something like complete anarchy , absence of rules , law , and everything that makes up @ @ @ @ @ @ @ society where human rights are absent , dictatorship rules , no freedom at all .
Is that WROL ?
RELATED : There ’ s No Such Thing As “ Without Rule of Law ” – WROL vs. DROL No .
It is not .
They still have laws , rules , police , and maybe courts .
But their “ rule of law ” is not anything that you understand it to be .
For example , they may have a law written where you could be jailed and detained without proper court @ @ @ @ @ @ @ because you criticized the government .
Or , even because you wear something “ improper ” .
So basically it is still a world with society and order and laws .
Everything is governed by the law .
However , this law is absolutely different from any law that most of you imagined .
You may call it lawlessness , but it is not .
It is not WROL .
It is a Different Rule of Law ( DROL ) In essence , for you , it might feel the same though .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ is so far from what you thought it would be .
What is it really like ?
Well , it could be something like we see in movies : hordes of people fighting in the complete absence of any rules for resources or whatever .
But , that is a movie .
In reality , it happened , and it may well happen again , but only as a specific stage , it can be a shorter or longer stage , .
It is almost always very short .
Rarely is there a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ society , and keep in mind that I talk from the experience of urban survival in an extremely broken down societal situation .
As I have written many times before , we currently live in a society where the system is running , and because the system is running we do not see parts of society that are running on the “ edge ” or ‘ fringe ’ of that system .
There ’ s always someone ready to jump in .
We might see it as a “ glimpses ” in news @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of a local drug dealer that is somewhere standing , maybe on the corner close to your living place .
That drug dealer is part of something larger , and rarely we think a lot about that larger part .
There is usually a highly organized “ system ” behind him .
It is an example only , but those kinds of people or organizations are there , living today around us , on the fringes of the ‘ normal ’ system .
And guess what ?
Usually , they will be there @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as soon as they appear .
That is the reason there is no ‘ power vacuum ’ ( or WROL ) .
Even if , in extremes , there is going to be one it is going to be a very short time until those established and effective organizations outside of normal society “ jump in ” .
Keep in mind that it does not necessarily have to be a criminal organization out there that will fill the vacuum , at least not criminal organizations as we see it .
There are other @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and who are enough organized and ready to fill the vacuum .
Paramilitary organizations , political fractions , etc .
Understand , in some cases , fringe organizations , or even you and your structures at a local level , jumping in can be a good thing .
It prevents even more extreme elements or total anarchy from taking hold , that otherwise would happen .
And then you are not going to have mayhem , chaos , lawlessness like in apocalypse movies maybe , then you are going to have a different @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are important , but it is also important to think outside of the box .
Yes , words are important .
But if someone has a bag with all the essential things inside for surviving running away from home , then it is a good thing .
A great thing .
It is not important that he or she does not use word BOB for that bag , or does not know what that word it is .
It served the purpose or solve the problem , everything else is semantics .
On @ @ @ @ @ @ @ prepping for the WROL based on fantasies that are out there for years and decades , and if you are sticking hard to it , then words are important , and it is good to think about the word DROL .
There will almost certainly be little-to-no time without rules of governance .

Words are important, to be sure that we are talking about the same things and situations. We need them so that we can somehow “categorize” things.
Why?
Because we are living in a world where we want to have reasons and “boxes” where we can put all those reasons for everything. We want to then file away the actions that we are going to take because of those reasons.
We want everything to make sense because it is easier to work in a situation where everything has sense and reason, and where there is a clear and clean solution to everything. Not to mention we want to live in a world in which we want to make a stand – a hard stand – because we live by norms and rules that most people think are written in the stone.
It will not work in that way.
Not in a real and serious SHTF.
Right here I want to make a point that I do not classify myself as ‘better than the average prepper’ in anyway, because I do not live with such a strong need for reasoning and structures, I do not have a higher quality of daily life because of this,
BUT…
I do feel better prepared for serious situations because I do not ‘need’ to always have structures and clear reasoning for my actions. This enables me to decide and act more impulsively and intuitively because I do not need to engage in a lengthy or detailed ‘reasoning’ process.
WROL vs DROL…where to start?
WROL is a word that most people imagine describes something like complete anarchy, absence of rules, law, and everything that makes up a society. Does this mean a society where human rights are absent, dictatorship rules, no freedom at all. Is that WROL?
RELATED: There’s No Such Thing As “Without Rule of Law” – WROL vs. DROL
No. It is not.
They still have laws, rules, police, and maybe courts. But their “rule of law” is not anything that you understand it to be. For example, they may have a law written where you could be jailed and detained without proper court case for months or years, simply because you criticized the government. Or, even because you wear something “improper”.
So basically it is still a world with society and order and laws. Everything is governed by the law. However, this law is absolutely different from any law that most of you imagined. You may call it lawlessness, but it is not. It is not WROL.
It is a Different Rule of Law (DROL)
In essence, for you, it might feel the same though. It will feel like hell because it is so far from what you thought it would be.
What is it really like?
Well, it could be something like we see in movies: hordes of people fighting in the complete absence of any rules for resources or whatever. But, that is a movie.

In reality, it happened, and it may well happen again, but only as a specific stage, it can be a shorter or longer stage,. It is almost always very short.
Why?
Rarely is there a vacuum of power at any level of society, and keep in mind that I talk from the experience of urban survival in an extremely broken down societal situation. As I have written many times before, we currently live in a society where the system is running, and because the system is running we do not see parts of society that are running on the “edge” or ‘fringe’ of that system.
There’s always someone ready to jump in.
We might see it as a “glimpses” in news, movies, or in the image of a local drug dealer that is somewhere standing, maybe on the corner close to your living place. That drug dealer is part of something larger, and rarely we think a lot about that larger part. There is usually a highly organized “system” behind him.
It is an example only, but those kinds of people or organizations are there, living today around us, on the fringes of the ‘normal’ system.
And guess what? Usually, they will be there ready to jump and fill the gaps as soon as they appear.
That is the reason there is no ‘power vacuum’ (or WROL). Even if, in extremes, there is going to be one it is going to be a very short time until those established and effective organizations outside of normal society “jump in”. Keep in mind that it does not necessarily have to be a criminal organization out there that will fill the vacuum, at least not criminal organizations as we see it.
There are other forces who are in the system, and who are enough organized and ready to fill the vacuum. Paramilitary organizations, political fractions, etc.
Understand, in some cases, fringe organizations, or even you and your structures at a local level, jumping in can be a good thing. It prevents even more extreme elements or total anarchy from taking hold, that otherwise would happen. And then you are not going to have mayhem, chaos, lawlessness like in apocalypse movies maybe, then you are going to have a different rule of law – DROL.
Words are important, but it is also important to think outside of the box.
Yes, words are important. But if someone has a bag with all the essential things inside for surviving running away from home, then it is a good thing. A great thing. It is not important that he or she does not use word BOB for that bag, or does not know what that word it is.
It served the purpose or solve the problem, everything else is semantics.
On the other hand, if you are prepping for the WROL based on fantasies that are out there for years and decades, and if you are sticking hard to it, then words are important, and it is good to think about the word DROL.
There will almost certainly be little-to-no time without rules of governance. There will almost always be rules that you have to be aware of quickly and obey in order to stay safe. Usually, the more challenging the event or time, the more oppression will be used to establish ‘order’. Alternatively, you will make the conscious choice to avoid the rules, hide from them, or fight against the rules AND the structures that enforce them.
Or to suffer under them in order to live one more day and fight tomorrow maybe.
Even if you find yourself in a time where there is an absolute absence of rules, rulers, and laws, be prepared for someone or something who is coming, very quickly, who will try to impose rules, most probably by more divisions, factions, parties, or separation.
We can call it the collapse, chaos, WROL, SHTF which essentially is the truth. But make no mistake. Someone will always try to be above us, to rule.

investmentwatchblog--2020-08-13--Gold Is Finally Returning to Its Rightful Place

When this long-discredited idea reemerged a few years ago , many wrote it off as insane with no chance of happening .
It was just too crazy to be true , much less taken seriously… It ’ s as if a politician was promising to give every person in America a free pony… and then the public elected that person .
With disastrous economic ideas rapidly spreading across the US , it was only a matter of time before this ridiculous notion would manifest itself into actual policy .

via caseyresearch:
When this long-discredited idea reemerged a few years ago, many wrote it off as insane with no chance of happening.
It was just too crazy to be true, much less taken seriously…
But now it’s reality.
It’s as if a politician was promising to give every person in America a free pony… and then the public elected that person.
With disastrous economic ideas rapidly spreading across the US, it was only a matter of time before this ridiculous notion would manifest itself into actual policy.
I’m referring to Modern Monetary Theory (MMT), one of the latest buzzwords coming out of Washington, DC.
In short, MMT promises “free everything,” which the government’s printing presses finance – supposedly without consequence. The government prints money to meet its obligations.
MMT is the same economic quackery that’s brought misery to Argentina, Venezuela, Zimbabwe, and countless other places. Now, US economists, politicians, and policy wonks are taking it seriously, too.
Contrary to its name, MMT is neither new nor “modern.” It’s an old economic poison in a shiny new bottle. And adding the word “theory” to something doesn’t make it scientific or credible.
Instead, let’s be clear and specific with our words and call MMT what it really is – the Classic Counterfeiting Swindle.
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) and Stephanie Kelton – Bernie Sanders’ former chief economic adviser – are leading advocates of MMT.
In the last couple of months, MMT – something most people regarded as a crackpot fantasy – has become a reality.
But it’s not just socialists who are advocating for it…
President Trump – the self-described “King of Debt” – and the Republicans have whole-hardheartedly endorsed this destructive policy.
Following the coronavirus hysteria, the entire US political system has thrown out the last semblance of fiscal and monetary sanity.
For no better proof, look at this year’s staggering, record-shattering federal budget deficit.
The federal government expects to spend at least $3.7 trillion more than it brings in for 2020.
That’s likely to end up being too conservative. The actual deficit will probably far exceed $4 trillion.
The US Has Lost Its Collective Mind
The government is financing this astounding amount of money by issuing more and more debt.
So who is buying all of this paper? The Federal Reserve is. By using “money” it creates out of thin air. (If this sounds like it’s a scam, that’s because it is.)
It’s legalized counterfeiting on a Zimbabwean scale.
For this reason, the Fed’s balance sheet has exploded in recent months. Note the far right part of the chart below.
In a more honest system, the government wouldn’t be able to finance itself through fraud. It would have to raise taxes or tap into society’s pool of savings by issuing debt at the market rate.
But the government could never get away with honestly financing $4 trillion in deficits.
That’s why it’s turning to money printing.
The Fed – which is to say, legalized counterfeiting – has become an indispensable tool for the US government to finance its budget. That means the US has already adopted MMT, and there’s no turning back.
It’s another frightening indication the US has lost its collective mind.

Hedge fund legend Paul Tudor Jones put it this way:
The depth and magnitude of the economic drop-off took Modern Monetary Theory – or the direct monetization of massive fiscal spending – from the theoretical to practice without any debate. It has happened globally with such speed that even a market veteran, like myself, was left speechless.
The fact that fiscal and monetary policy are now irrecoverably intertwined has revealed one of the biggest misconceptions about central banks.
Contrary to what the bobbleheads on CNBC, and the rest of the mainstream media and academia tell you, central banks are not “independent” and never have been. They solely exist to give the government an easy option to finance itself by taxing the population (through inflation) in a way that perhaps not one in 100 will understand.
That brings up an important point…
Almost everyone takes central banks and “monetary policy” for granted as a permanent fixture of the universe. But the truth is, they’re not only completely unnecessary, but destructive. They shouldn’t exist in a free society.
We don’t need a politburo to centrally plan the money supply and interest rates – which are the most important prices in all of capitalism. It only works to enrich politically connected insiders while impoverishing everyone else.
As central banks discredit themselves beyond repair by embracing MMT, it’s going to usher in a new monetary era. Alternative monetary goods will take center stage – first and foremost, gold.
Gold Is Returning to Its Rightful Place
For over 5,000 years, gold has been mankind’s most enduring form of wealth.
Throughout history, many different civilizations around the world have reached the same conclusion: gold is money.
That didn’t happen by accident.
It happened because gold has a set of characteristics that make it uniquely suitable as money.
Gold is durable, divisible, consistent, convenient, scarce, and, most importantly, a hard asset, which means its annual supply growth is insignificant relative to its existing supply. Its worth doesn’t depend on any government, or any counterparty at all.
Gold is the free market’s “monetary policy.”
And for the first time in over 50 years, gold is returning to its rightful place at the center of the international monetary system. That’s what makes this current gold bull market fundamentally different.
This gold bull is not going to be like previous ones. It will be riding the wave of an incredibly powerful trend: the re-monetization of gold.
I’m not talking about a garden-variety cyclical gold bull market, but the BIGGEST gold mania in history. And it’s already well underway.
Gold is skyrocketing. Late last month, it decisively took out its previous all-time high.
I think there’s an excellent chance that gold could exceed $10,000 as this all plays out.
That’s about a 5x return from here just on the price of gold. I think that could prove to be too conservative. It’s in line with how previous bull markets turned out – as we can see in the chart below – and the current bull market we’re in is likely to be much bigger.
Remember, this is just the price of gold.
Junior gold stocks could soar much higher. Regular readers know gold stocks often amplify the price of gold. So it’s not unusual in bull markets for junior mining stocks as a group to go 10-to-1, with 100-to-1 shots possible, with the right companies.
We’re not at the bottom anymore, but gold stocks are still far off from their highs, as we can see in the chart below.
With the insane valuations of the broader market, gold stocks today are still a relative bargain.
That’s why I’m urging readers to position themselves now. Owning some physical gold – and keeping it in your own possession – is step one. It’s something everyone should do.
In addition to physical gold, you’ll also want leveraged upside to grow your wealth. For that, we’re looking at companies that are in the business of exploring for, developing, and producing precious metals.
The chances are high that select gold stocks will reward patient speculators with 5-baggers, 10-baggers, or higher returns – if you choose the best companies.

In the early days of the coronavirus crisis, President Donald Trump was flanked in the White House briefing room by a team of public health experts in a seeming portrait of unity to confront the disease that was ravaging the globe. But as the crisis has spread to all reaches of the country, with escalating deaths and little sense of endgame, a chasm has widened between the president and the experts. The result: daily delivery of a mixed message to the public at a moment when coherence is most needed.

Most charges against Portland protesters won’t be prosecuted, DA says
Under the new policy, Schmidt’s office will “presumptively decline” to prosecute cases that don’t fit his criteria, including interfering with a peace, parole or probation officer; second-degree disorderly conduct; first- or second-degree criminal trespass; third-degree escape and harassment. Rioting charges will also not be prosecuted unless accompanied by another crime not included in the list, Schmidt said.
The move will likely lead to no charges for “hundreds of people” arrested since May 29, a spokesman for the Multnomah County District Attorney’s Office told The Post.
“Violent crimes, arsons and intentional property damage cases will still be prosecuted,” spokesman Brent Weisberg said.

I think it’s more likely that he’s a foggy-minded figurehead, and other people have decided to frame the message like that. I consider these people — whoever they are — despicable. They have chosen quite deliberately to commit to a lie that is intended to make black people feel hated and they are doing it for political gain. As my earlier post about the tweet says, I blogged in April 2019, “If Biden does not come forward and retract [a video relying on the Charlottesville hoax] and apologize and commit himself to making amends, I consider him disqualified. He does not have the character or brain power to be President.” Now, more than a year later, Biden has done the opposite. He’s doubled down on the lie and he’s making it the centerpiece of his campaign!
They’re terrible people who would happily wreck the country so long as they wound up ruling over the wreckage.

The federal workforce, much of which never embraced President Trump, was quick to jump on the Biden-Harris train today.
The largest federal employees union, the American Federation of Government Employees, this morning endorsed Joe Biden’s pick of California Sen. Kamala Harris as his running mate.
“Sen. Harris is the right choice for this moment in our nation’s history,” said AFGE President Everett Kelley.
Most unions have swung behind Biden, and it wasn’t a surprise that federal worker unions would follow suit, especially since Trump has sometimes included labor executives in his hits on the D.C. “Swamp.”

Biden was the NAACP’s chief enemy on this matter, the enemy of the Supreme Court’sdecision.
In that same 22 May 2020 broadcast to young black voters, Biden said
Joe Biden: (09:10)
I opposed that three strikes and you’re out bill. I oppose the position taking that, saying that you’re going to have any mandatory sentences.
But here’s what Biden had told Katie Couric on NBC’s Today Show on 1 February 1994
what I support is a three strikes and you’re out, if in fact, they’re very violent crimes–arson, rape, murder, manslaughter. Three strikes in those areas, and you should be out.
He called it there “the Biden bill” — all of it was. The law’s “Sec. 70001. Mandatory life imprisonment for persons convicted of certain felonies” spells out its Three-Strikes-And-You’re-Out provisions, and they apply equally to “each serious violent felony or serious drug offense.” “Serious drug offense” needn’t be “violent”; so, non-violent “serious” drug-law violations can and do place prisoners behind bars permanently. But, regardless, Biden lies when he asserts that “I opposed that three strikes and you’re out bill.” He supported it.
Later in that May 22nd interview, he said
The only mandatory was in there was carjacking, which I opposed and three strikes and you’re out, which is ridiculous. It only was imposed three times but still even once makes no sense. The idea of three times three strikes and you’re out, give me a break.
Of course, that’s false (to the extent that his broken syntax makes any sense).
In that May 22nd broadcast, Biden diminished the law’s relevancy to federal drug-law violators, by saying “94% of every prisoner in jail is in a state prison, not a federal prison. No federal law.” However, the fact is that there are 226,000 federal prisoners, and that 100,000 of them are in prison for federal drug-law violations . So, 44% of inmates in federal prisons are in for having violated federal drug-crimes. Yet again, Biden lied, to say “No federal law.” (Furthermore, the numbers he cites — such as “94%” — are inaccurate.)
A section in the Wikipedia article on the law notes its “Elimination of higher education for inmates.” It observes that this provision “effectively eliminated the ability of lower-income prison inmates to receive college educations during their term of imprisonment.” Biden’s trashing of convicts led him to want them to come out of prison as lacking in higher education as they were when entering prison. That’s an excellent way to encourage them to stay out of the productive and legal workforce, and to be hopeless about their futures, and thus inclined to a life of continuing crime.
Biden also said in that May 22nd interview:
Change the entire prison system for one, that is punishment to rehabilitation. There’s only a couple of things everybody has in common in jail. One is they were the victims of abuse or their kids were, or their mother was. Number two, can’t read. Number three, they don’t have any job skills. They were in a position where they didn’t get a chance. Why does it make sense? Why did I come along and write the first act that said, when you get out of prison, you don’t just get a DOSA where you get 25 bucks and a bus ticket. You end up under the bridge and just do the same place.
So every single solitary person being released from prison should have access to every single government program. Why does it not make sense to have African Americans who were getting out of prison, served their time, everybody for that matter, be able to have public housing? Why didn’t it make sense that they can have Pell grants to go to school? Why did it make sense they can have access to healthcare? What are we nuts? That’s what we keep doing.
He doesn’t mention, and wasn’t asked by his interviewer about, “the Biden bill” (as he called it) having eliminated any and all higher education in federal prisons. He pretends to be a different person, and to have done different things, than he actually is, and did. And thus far, he has gotten away with it.
Those are just a few examples, but they are typical ones.
