The Impoverishment Of The Masses

"There is something in the human psyche which denies economic truths. The explanation as to why free markets work is logical and simple to understand. The contrary evidence, that statist attempts to interfere with Adam Smith’s invisible hand always fail, is irrefutable. Yet the blame for failure is always laid at the door of capitalism. The few of us that persistently insist that right is not wrong and wrong is not right attempt a seemingly hopeless task of persuading the unwilling..."

"In the days following the collapse, all I wanted was for the towers to be rebuilt just like before. I wanted the skyline back to what I had know since the day I came into this earth at a New York City hospital to be restored exactly as I had always known it. I read a lengthy tome on Osama Bin Laden and al-Qaeda. I was an emotional and psychological mess, and it was when I was in this state of heightened distress that my own government and the military-industrial complex took advantage of me..."

Weekend Edition: You’re Not Legally Entitled to Social Security

by Doug Casey, Casey Research:
If you’re like most readers, you’ve been paying into Social Security your entire working life. You might even be counting on that money to last you through retirement.

The good news is that there’s another option. Tom explains how to defend yourself against this threat.
You probably thought Americans had a “right” to collect their Social Security in old age, right?

If ‘Hardly Anyone’ Cares About Gold, Why are Central Banks All Over Its Market?

by Chris Powell, Goldseek:

http://news.goldseek.com/SpeculativeInvestor/1473429960.php
— financial letter writer and technical analyst Steve Saville again cites some charts to claim that gold is performing just as expected in relation to other markets without regard to any “whims/abilities of evil manipulators.”

The other is that the gold price generally does what it should do given the performances of other financial markets. Only one of these explanations makes sense.”

Proof the U.S. Government Plans to Seize Food and Medicine From Citizens During a Collapse

by Vicki Batts, Intellihub:
Citizens have remained silent as the current administration has systematically created pathways for total government takeover.
The American government has already laid the groundwork for tyranny to step in. Citizens have remained silent as the current administration has systematically created pathways for total government takeover across the board. Say what you will, but we as a nation have given Congress carte blanche, and all three branches of the federal government have gone essentially unchecked by the American people. Our government, which once stood to protect the freedoms and liberties of its people, has gone down a very dark path – one that will lead to the upheaval of the Constitution and the implementation of a tyrannical oligarchy or dictatorship.
