("Actual Title: Startling Evidence that Central Banks and Wall Street Insiders Are Rapidly Preparing for Something BIG." This was too long, so modified the title for FR.)
If you want to figure out what is going to happen next in the financial markets, carefully watch what the insiders are doing. Those that are “connected” have access to far better sources of information than the rest of us have, and if they hear that something big is coming up they will often make very significant moves with their money in anticipation of what is about to happen. Right now, Wall Street insiders and central banks all around the globe are making some very unusual moves. In fact, they appear to be rapidly preparing for something really big. So exactly what are they up to?...

Why Does The U.S. Government Need So Much Ammunition?

I hope the GOP has representative oversight on that operation. That might be why Soros stopped his push for the Secretary of State leftists.
I had suspected that the many large governmental ammunition purchases were designed more to restrict private sector supply than anything, but I’m wondering now if state employment security commissions aren’t doing the same.
Besides, I think the stock market--knowing that Obama is about to go down in flames this November--is ready for a takeoff that could send the stock market to stratospheric heights, especially if the Romney/Ryan income tax overhaul is going to be anything like what Steve Forbes proposed in 1996!
Umm, what?
Logically if they can confiscate any of your property, they can confiscate any of the rest of your property
IF we are lucky enough to kick this lousy commie out of the Oval Office we're still in a world of hurt that HE is leaving this nation in.
Yea - maybe... but not without one hell of a fight first.
Concur.
You do know, don’t you that obama is not only hiring 16,000 new IRS agents but have also ordered a bunch of shotguns
- Remington Model 870 Express, to be exact.
Done intelligently, yes. Done this way, it could be very bad. The assumption also has to be that Treasury and the FED will throw their hand in with the Democrats, if no other way than by ending their blatant manipulation of the stock market.
If the Muslims start bombing in this country we are going to see a lot of 7-11’s without clerks gas stations empty and hotels without registrars.
The people of the United States are not going to put up with Muslims and bombs, there are going to be a lot of dead Muslims.
Nothing but a chump would let their gold be confiscated ala 1932. After the confiscation back then, gold was quickly revalued and nearly doubled.
They will confiscate what is in your bank safe deposit box, etc. But they can’t confiscate for the whole world. The gold change in your pocket as you board the airliner will be a fortune overseas. Take the gold to China, buy their money, then convert it back to the new dollars before you head home.
Don’t feel like travel? There’s a Chinese buffet in my town. And one from India too. And a Vietnamese.
Those owners are from countries that ravenously consume gold. And they smuggle people in by the CONEX box load. Think they can’t move a few coins here and there?
LOL,, no, if they “call in the gold” and you have it in your possession, just stay quiet and watch for the options when it skyrockets.
Greece, Spain, Italy almost all of Europe is presently living on borrow money they can’t ever hope to repay and its merely a matter of time before the game of musical chairs they’ve be playing ends. How many countries can Germany prop-up before they too are swamped? Britain and France are already so weak that the Islamist they have allowed to ‘invade’ them will most likely over run them when the time comes.
Here at home we find that the corner three card Monte dealer is more honest than most of the ‘Too Big to Fail’ banks and investment houses. And face it the Monte dealer who ‘scams’ a few hundred is a thousand times more likely to go to jail that the ‘banksters’ that are stealing millions.
The game is so rigged now that the fraudsters don’t even know how its going to play out. We are headed for some bad times, which is one of the reasons I’ve been sounding the alarm. Its time that you either prepare to stand on your own beholden to no one or accept that you will be a ‘serf’ dependent on others to provide your basic needs.
Check out Ferfal’s blog and Selco’s blog despite what so many think it is NOT impossible for a modern country to quickly fall into chaos! It’s happen before and it is happening now.
As for me I don’t want to be beholden to anyone for providing what is needed for me and mine. I certainly don’t want to have to kiss some ‘gubberment’ third class bureaucratic to try and coax some help from them, I don’t want some ‘jack booted’ thug herding me in line and telling me where to stand, sit, eat or sleep. And last but not least I don’t want to be shut up with a bunch of ‘zombies’ and have to worry about not only trying to get basic necessities but having to fight to keep what I manage to get.
Some seem to think that prepping is foolish, so I ask you what’s easier telling your children and loved ones why you prepared or explaining to them why you didn’t?
But if any provide not for his own, and especially for those of his own house, he has denied the faith, and is worse than an unbeliever. 1 Timothy 5:8
But then someone has to stand on the bridge waiting for FEMA to bring them a bottle of water, an MRE and a warm blanket so as to provide the Network Anchors their background ‘Money Shot’. I wonder how that will workout for them?
I am not saying that things will turn Mad Max/Book of Eli, (With the possible exception of a brief time in a few of the larger big blue cities) but things could easily breakdown for 30 to 60 days during which basic supplies, goods and services stop, banking stops (No checks No Credit Cards, No Debit Cards so on...) now how many people do you think are ready for such?
And between those not ready and those who have always had the ‘gubberment’ hand them everything what do you think the reaction will be?
Their reaction I think can be summed up in one of my favorite quotes:
Quark: Let me tell you something about Hew-mons, Nephew. They’re a wonderful, friendly people, as long as their bellies are full and their holosuites are working. But take away their creature comforts, deprive them of food, sleep, sonic showers, put their lives in jeopardy over an extended period of time and those same friendly, intelligent, wonderful people... will become as nasty and as violent as the most bloodthirsty Klingon. You don’t believe me? Look at those faces. Look in their eyes. ‘Star Trek: Deep Space Nine’: The Siege of AR-558 (#7.8)” (1998)
For those who are just starting or are old hands at prepping you may find my Preparedness Manual helpfull. You can download it at:

NOTE! THIS IS A FREE DOWNLOAD. I DO NOT MAKE ONE CENT OFF MY PREPAREDNESS MANUAL!
For those of you who haven’t started already it’s time to prepare almost past time maybe. You needed to be stocking up on food guns, ammo, basic household supplies like soap, papergoods, cleaning supplies, good sturdy clothes including extra socks, underwear and extra shoes and boots, a extra couple changes of oil and filters for your car, tools, things you buy everyday start buying two and put one up.
As the LDS say “When the emergency is upon us the time for preparedness has past.”
Or as the bible says: A prudent man sees danger and takes refuge, but the simple keep going and suffer for it.
NIV Proverbs 22:3
Lastly this for the doubters and the scoffers.
“There is no greater disaster than to underestimate danger.
Underestimation can be fatal.”
Yeah, I knew that about the shotguns.
Gold bug ping.
The way I see it, there’s three possibilities; One a high chance that the whole mess will blow-up if ‘Bama’ looses we already see the desperation growing among his followers. Two the pressure mounts to a point ‘Bama’ cracks goes scorched earth and action has to be taken directly against him to save the country and three ‘Bama’ wins and within months the man’s tyranny will reach a level that true patriots will not be able to stand.
I could be wrong, but that’s the way I see things.
Correction: the only form of gold that the US federal government has not yet confiscated.
If they want it, they will pass a law making it legal for them to confiscate it.
Last I read, the Chinese property market is collapsing. It was the Mother of All Bubbles, which actually put the U.S. housing bubble to shame. Speculators were placing a collective huge bet on urbanization accelerating: as is often the case with a compelling story, they overshot the mark.
The U.S. real-estate market started turning down in 2006, and the implosion got underway in '07. Remember those Bernanke foot-in-mouth moments? One of them came in late '07. He said the sub-prime implosion was "contained" - implying that he knew quite well that real estate was imploding, but that he didn't see what else was coming.
I'm sure that Soros thinks that this year is like 2007, and that next year will be another 2008. Only this time, the crisis epicentre will either be mainland China or Europe - possibly both.
If you're in the mood for a gamble, the best thing you can do is to stock up on cash. Yep, plain old cash. Hold it, sit on it, accumulate more of it. Then, sit back and wait to see how the China implosion plays out. If '13 ends up being another '08, then it'll be time to do a little shopping on the equity or gold markets. Even gold cratered, temporarily, when the S hit the F in October '08.
The reason why I peg this move as a gamble is because there's a chance that the next '08 will rip apart mainland China but not here. In that case, gold will go up and $1,600 will prove to be a bargain not taken. There also won't be any fire sales in stocks to take advantage of, outside of mainland China and/or Europe. Outside of turfs that are unfamiliar, unknown, and which might well be swamp and jungle.
Before signing off, I have to make a wee confession. I was a buyer in late October of '08 all through early '09, but my short-termism meant that I pulled the hook out of the mouths of the big fish. So, I have a bias in that I'm waiting for a second chance to do it right. That said, Soros is no dummy when it comes to speculating...
