When it comes to U.S. economic or foreign policy, Dr. Jim Willie, Publisher of the Hat Trick Letter, says, “The U.S. Ship of State is sinking, and it is a derelict vessel.”  About President Obama, Dr. Willie contends, “He looks weak.  He looks backed into a corner.  He looks just like Fed Chief Bernanke who also has no exit strategy.  They are all tied together because a lot of the actions out there are directed against the dollar.”  (more…)

World Bank attorney Karen Hudes says she is one of a group of global whistleblowers.  Hudes contends, “We’re running out of time. It’s time to tell these thugs and crooks that they’re fired.”  Hudes goes on to say, “We don’t have to wait for anybody to fire the Fed or Bank for International Settlements . . . some states have already started to recognize silver and gold, the precious metals, as currency . . . there are other alternatives like Bitcoin . . . We, the consumer, can choose which currency to use, and that’s what we’re going to do in very short order.”  (more…)

Money manager Peter Schiff claims the real U.S. Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is closer to “$13 trillion” than the official government number of “$16.6 trillion.”  That is a discrepancy of $3.6 trillion!  Schiff explains, “The government keeps telling us the economy is getting bigger, but millions of Americans are leaving the workforce.  We’ve got record numbers of people on food stamps . . . and part-time jobs are replacing full-time jobs.  How is that consistent with a growing economy?  It’s not.”  (more…)

James Rickards wrote the best-seller titled “Currency Wars-The Making of the Next Financial Crisis.”  What’s going to cause the next crisis?  Rickards says, “The problem in 2008 was too-big-to-fail banks.  Well, those banks are now bigger.  Their derivative books are bigger.  In other words, everything that was wrong in 2008 is worse today.” (more…)
