ParticipantI guess my biggest fear is a long, grinding, stagflationary hell, where wage workers see their purchasing power slip dramatically. There is very little reason to believe wages are going up anytime in the near future, but there are plenty of reasons to believe prices of assets/commodities will go up.
If, like me, you view the rise in the domestic and international commodities markets, the stock markets, bond markets, and housing markets (even stagnation is a sign of inflation, if prices were supposed to fall) as a bad, inflationary omen in this “Greatest Recession Since the Great Depression,” we’ve already started down that path. U.S. workers’ purchasing power has deteriorated very rapidly over the past couple of years.

ParticipantI just watched the video and was underwhelmed. He opened by claiming to have spent an untold fortune creating the video and constantly spoke about things only he saw coming. The video was something my 11 year old could have created on Powerpoint and was full of things we have been openly discussing for the better part of 5 years on this blog. Same old, same old. I didnt have the patience to wait to see what he was selling.

I’m surprised you even bothered to watch it — I didn’t, and didn’t think for a minute I wouldn’t have a good sense of what everyone, or the person in the video, was talking about. If I’ve made a mistake and this is something I really need to see by all means tell me.
Anyway, I think the history of Argentina probably provides a lot of clues as to where things might go. From debt, to mortgage failure, to inflation, throughout the years there’s something for everyone. When I hear about the talk of suppressing talk radio today and Obama’s cult of personality I can’t help but think of the Peron years in the 1940’s. It’s all there. I think, however, given the bullseye on the USA I think we’ll have greater national security concerns.
