The End Game Approaches
The Market Ticker ^ | 3/25/09 | Karl Denninger

We're about done here folks.

By "done", I mean done with the government's ability to screw around with markets, game the outcome and hide the sausage, if you will, at least to any sort of positive effect.

Today we heard from The Fed that their threatened program to start buying the long end of the Treasury curve will begin tomorrow:

That was, without a doubt, prompted by this:

“Here’s a dose of reality for you folks.

I am confident, in the 90th percentile, that none of this is going to work.

All of these clowns still believe you can treat a drunk with a case of whiskey.”

If Karl hadn’t admitted he voted for zerObama, I’d trust his judgement 100%. His blog is a good read though.

His take on the newest program “PPIP” (pee pee in the pottie...good one...LOL!)

Good if they don’t buy it we won’t be stuck with the bill. I didn’t know that he admitted that, where did you see that? He was recently honored by AIM and has been right on about things for quite some time.

I suggest you read Denninger’s blog “Market Ticker” Look at the archives for past articles. He has some advice for preparing for what he thinks has a probability of occurring (massive unemployment and 1 out of 6 Americans dependent on Govt to keep them housed and alive).

Read his article on “Outlook for 2009”, in the Dec 2008 archive.

His outlook for 2008 (published in Dec 2007) was pretty accurate.

Some of us are more alarmist than others. I have a general plan to move my family to a safe (rural) place and keep them fed and in clean water without any outside support. for at least several months. Given the more I see of Geithner, obamas mass cult society in the media (US and world) the lemming democrats in congress and the eunuch republicans.... I think need to intensify our survival program to last several years.

I put nothing past this “government”.

What “could” happen? This was Posted LAST MARCH 2008. Look how much has come true already and look at the signals (being ignored by media and congress) the rest of it may be underway.

I agree sadly with all of it, but what will be the biggest shoe to drop?.....can't get money out of the bank?...no more paychecks?....no more state/federal pensions?....

we've got some provisions....its probably never enough....but what else do we need to know and do..
