Fed Leads America “To The Brink Of Collapse” Paul Joseph Watson www.prisonplanet.tv Thursday, August 12, 2010 When even the New York Times and CNN are admitting that the United States faces not only a double-dip recession but potentially a new great depression, any alarm bells that have not been rung should now be sounding loudly. Following in the footsteps of the New York Times’ David Krugman, who in June wrote that the United States had entered a third depression similar to the Long Depression of the 19th century, CNN Money carried an article yesterday brazenly entitled, Is this finally the economic collapse?. The piece, written by Keith R. McCullough, points out that the Fed’s announcement that it will start buying Treasury debt, is a “crossing the Rubicon” moment and “could lead the country to the brink of collapse”. “Crossing the 90% debt/GDP threshold is the equivalent of crossing the proverbial Rubicon of economic growth. It’s a point from which it’s almost impossible to return,” states the article, adding that the market has not responded to quantitative easing so to engage in more of the same would be completely futile. “With 40.8 million Americans on food stamps (record high) and 45% of the unemployed having been seeking employment for 27 weeks or more (record high), what’s left if (or when) QE2 doesn’t kick start GDP growth?

(This is not a complete list. If you want me to do further research it’s going to have to be on a pay-scale basis) This is not a call for lawsuits or complaints! I know that I don’t offer solutions to this problem, but frankly, tattooed people, we need to pull ourselves up by our bootstraps. We don’t have any representation in congress, the senate, the oval office, the media, the major corporations. There is not a single CEO of a fortune 500 that has facial tattoos. We are crowding the jails and absent in avenues of gainful employment. People feel they can discriminate against us, justify it, and have no regret, not just on the streets and businesses, but in their evaluation of our characters. If we are to turn this around we cannot commit crimes, act inappropriately, or falter in our quest for visible success. Right now all they see is the ink signifying outcasts. We need to make that into a mark of creativity that suggests true progress and success. As always, I have to correct something in my videos. Consider it a concern for the truth, not incompetence.
