Media-based frenzy.
If there are three things I could choose to look forward to when I wake up it would be the price of gold increasing, the television broadcast system intact, and the television broadcast system telling us that something is wrong. I'm not knocking awareness, but lately touching subjects along the lines of quantum entanglement and chaos theory I'm noticing that history does tend to repeat itself and we, as a people, do not really know our history. If we did there'd be war in America instead of the Middle East.
What I'm trying to say is that slowly while we're worried about topics like health care, as opposed to alternate health care and overall wellness (like what shaman used to do for the natives) and military funding we've been backed into a corner where gold, which was 900/oz about this time last year, has hit 1500/oz. Gold is a economic barometer, because it's premium physical currency that a majority of banking houses use to back their cotton-based currency. Given ignorance to the subject of economics in a standard schooling curriculum no one really invested money in anything significant.
Scenario. You wake up. Turn on your television and tune into CNN (I don't really watch television much anymore myself). China's backed out of QE4. Stocks are plummeting. Silver is 200/oz. Gold is 2000+. Dollar is nil. Food is skyrocketing as your sitting there. You rush to Walmart, out of televised panic. Shelves are already clean. People are fucking shit up. Fuck. You go home. National Guard is deployed on national streets to subdue civil unrest. Then what?
Let's research. The dollar's been fighting a losing battle since it's backing in 15-something-another (55ish) where the Gold Standard was introduced. Somewhere along the line someone found a loophole where they could keep, let's say the actual gold and continue loansharking. This continues for three hundred years.
While I do think noting politics as a trend for the fiscal year before you I also think that American Politics are designed to keep people distracted from the picture. What IS the big picture? I'd say at this point remembering history. People should be doing their own homework if they want to remember the answers.
