The economy and bailout explained'

Hope all of you understand the American economic situation after viewing this video.

Caution, there are a couple of sorta bad words, so hope the mods still allow it.

Nope, sorry Stan. Good piece, but if I don't delete the link, someone else will. Poison the coffee in the morning and we'll be even.

Not a bad video cbrahs, but my only question is if money is so tight as the video depicts, where did all the money come from that emptied the grocery store shelves?

They put it on their credit cards

It might not take that long for this scenario to play out.. Japan used to by a lot of our T-Bills I doubt they will now..

I believe it will happen.

Guns. Lots of guns. Food, too.

And that boys and girls is why I prepare.

Funny thing, I have been watching the price of Silver on Ebay, it always was a good place to get some slightly under spot.

Not any more, coincidence?

Nope.

I only watched part of it. Let me ask a ? of those who know more than I. If the nations of the world stop buying U.S. treasury's, or decide to no longer accept the US dollar.....as some experts say is going to happen. Would this not throw their own economy into a depression? What would they then do with all of the billions or millions they already have in US money?

Just wondering, Tony

I dont see what the problem is. We can (and will) just print more money.

It wont happen. Although we do need to get our spending under control, and get out of the national debt. Its our national debt that is growing the other economies. If China were to stop they would sink faster than we would. Just the way it works. In todays world the goverments know how much we all rely on one another to keep the wheels turning. Plain and simple.
