#5 The Price Of Gasoline
#6 The Student Loan Debt Bubble
#7 State And Local Government Debt Crisis
#8 The Collapse Of A Major U.S. Bank

#12 A Major West Coast Earthquake Or Volcanic Eruption

I don't see some of these as being 'bubbles' but as being 'dominoes', like 3 and 5. or 3,4 and 8. Many of these things are interconnected and who knows which pebble's rolling will start the landslide.

#9 A Derivatives Crisis
Such a thing can't ever happen because:
1. Derivatives are bought and sold by the smartest guys on earth and they can be trusted to know what they are doing.
2. Whatever it is they're doing, don't dare call it speculation, you goldurn commie!
3. Even if there are some speculators (only a few, trust us) then there are an even number of them on either side of the trades so it'll all turn out OK in the wash, trust us.
4. Derivatives never ever led to a bubble. It's only when the government interferes that we have to worry.
5. And BTW, most of the derivatives are sold OTC so we don't even know how many there are out there and they say ignorance is bliss. And last time I checked bliss was a good thing.

Not one that I lay awake at night over, but in the history of the world it has happened and with tremendous consequences. And it seems like every few months NASA or someone finds another big rock sharing our neighborhood.

If there is any way the puppet masters can make one or several of the things on this list to happen so obama can declare martial law, it will happen.
