ECONOMY: CELENTE WILL BE WRONG AGAIN

Famous trends forecaster Gerald Celente is still claiming that the economy will collapse in the second quarter of this year (we are in it already). He predicted another collapse last year and it didn’t happen. He says that currently, the financial system is still being pumped with cheap money, such as $45 billion a month in mortgage-backed securities, and interest rates remain at record lows [true]—but once those interest rates go back up, the economy will tumble. –Not necessarily.

While the US continues its behind-closed-doors propping up of the economy, “I still believe we’re going to see something like a panic level by the end of the second quarter,” Celente remarked. I too decry the inflationary tactics of the FED, but I think he’ll be wrong just like last year. Even if the high flying stock market is due for a 20% correction, the economy still won’t collapse.

I’ve never challenged the phony basis of US economic strength—fiat money. It constitutes theft of all existing values and cannot be sustained forever. But Celente doesn’t understand that the financial Powers That Be aren’t nearly out of ammunition, nor does he understand the globalist agenda whereby the PTB are going to subject us to a nuclear war, not only to drive us all into a militarized global government for “protection” but to give them the excuse to switch to a new world currency and control system—and escape the blame. “The war forced this upon us” they will say.

Fed Chairwoman Janet Yellen confirmed as much this week when she said the “US Economy still needs stimulus…. a ‘High Degree’ of Accommodation is still needed.” But, contrary to what Peter Schiff claims, this does not necessarily mean hyperinflation. The Fed is perfectly capable of keeping the bailouts going while still keeping real inflation below 10%. They’ve been doing it now for 20 years, and most people keep pace, even though it is painful.

Yellen refused to be pinned down on any specifics, but did hint that “The Fed is steadily cutting its monthly purchases of Treasury and mortgage-backed securities, now at $45 billion a month, and Ms. Yellen affirmed that it planned to end those purchases in the fall. The bank must then decide when to start raising short-term interest rates, which it has held near zero since December 2008.

But I guarantee you, she is perfectly capable of reneging on that interest rate change if they think it would cause the housing market to tumble, as Celente predicts. That’s the trouble with predicting anything in today’s manipulated economy—it’s manipulated by a conspiracy of power.

So, unless you can see, as Peter Schiff did in 2007, that a specific type of manipulation has run its course (the mortgage backed securities expanded as far is they could because they ran out of buyers who could qualify under even zero down conditions) then you can’t predict a collapse. Besides, economies never totally collapse anyway—except in a complete war of devastation. I’m predicting the collapse won’t come until war hits America.

    When will you Americans stand up and take your government back?
    Best do it before Marial law is called.

    • I added a link in the above article, where Joel explains further why the globalists won’t let us go into hyperinflation. If they did, the people would wake up to fast and rise up to much, and demand real change. The globalists can’t let that happen. Joel believes they’re going to milk the economy, keeping the slow downward steady trend going until Russia and China EMP and nuke US. Then they can start all over.

      Regarding taking America back, I believe it’s too late. 2008 may have been our last chance to stop the police state, which is tracking everyone now. Few politicians are clean enough and have enough determination to take us back to Constitutional government.

      The foundational problem is the fall of real Christianity, so now most pastors, even, aren’t right with God and people, and they even led the people to vote for John McCain instead of Ron Paul in 2008.

      I still think we can make a difference, but my main goal now is to help the people realize how much trouble we’re in so enough will actually get serious about submitting to Jesus’ ways — determining to be led by the Holy Spirit where ‘ONE’ can happen, “that the world will know” (John 17). Then, God will fill us with His presence throughout what’s coming, and He’ll lead us through this.

      It’s very serious, now. I’ve been trying since the ’90s to help the people see, as have many others. And most just didn’t want to hear it. Most guys I know were most interested in anything but. Very sad.
