The new book Game Plan: How to Protect Yourself from the Coming Cyber-Economic Attack by Kevin Freeman is a stunning collection of factual research which lays out how a systematic international plan to bring down the U.S. dollar as the world's reserve currency. Freeman warns today's international effort to "crash the dollar" has reached critical mass: "Stage 3."
I have been writing about the increasing threat of economic and cyber war in my books and quoting Mr. Freeman for several years now. (For example, in The Inflation Deception p. 28-29) I wrote:
A Financial Pearl Harbor
According to Defense Department consultant Kevin D. Freeman, America in September 2008 suffered a financial “Pearl Harbor,” an internationally-launched coordinated computer raid designed to drain overnight trillions of dollars from our most important financial institutions. The resulting panic gulled Federal lawmakers into approving vast emergency bailout funds for banks, brokers and key corporations.
This remarkably-timed attack and resulting economic confusion persuaded voters to renew the liberal Democratic control of Congress and to elect a fresh and unknown-and-untested anti-capitalist radical community organizer as president.
According to Freeman, this attack was the culmination of three coordinated assaults that began in 2007 with “a speculative run-up in oil prices that generated as much as $2 Trillion of excess wealth for oil- producing nations, filling the coffers of Sovereign Wealth Funds, especially those that follow Shariah Compliant Finance.”

Yup.
American investors have bet short, on their own country.
Going long on a nation, which won’t even allow them to buy land.
America needs to encourage American investment again.
Soon.
I wish I had a sure answer for your question, but I don’t. Sorry. Many who are able to buy with cash are buying houses for rentals from auctions and short sales. Rentals have been going up. Nearly half of all sales have been cash sales.
But at the uglier end of the default process, which demographic will be capable of paying rent? If you can find an answer to that question for your area of interest, you’ll most likely be able to get paying tenants for a house or apartment.
It might be worth a look at a country in a more advanced point in default (a country with social customs nearest to our own) to see what kinds of work will be successful during harder times. I would suspect that with real economic rebuilding necessary, people in vocational/technical work would begin producing again. But they might not get much income for some time for lack of general consumer wealth.
One might consider the most essential and necessary of government jobs when considering renters, too. For example, there will always be police, although police during a deeper economic lull may be working for less. And there might not be as many of them.
Infrastructure jobs will probably also go on (water, utilities, etc.). Transportation and roads are very necessary for continued revenues to business and government. Last but not least, older folks may also be relatively poor in the future, but they won’t be completely dumped. At worst, Social Security may be transitioned to something more means tested and less expensive (decreased benefits for all but still in existence).
It’s too bad that small home businesses—especially tiny manufacturing operations—are outlawed by most local governments. Those could be another source of rent payments and revenues in tough times.
The more domestic oil production, the better! That’s a good point.
But we do need more than that. Most of the countries that are net exporters (which we’re not) are rather ugly outside of tourist resorts and have fragile and often changing political situations. That’s the way that we’re headed.
Obviously, which is why the left fights low oil prices tooth and nail. Unfortunately, their sponsors, virtually all owners of tax-exempt "charirtable" foundations, are major stockholders in the energy business. They LOVE high prices with little investment risk virtually guaranteed by environmental regulations.
Well said and true.
America needs an educated, not indoctrinated, populace.
America needs to stop robbing Peter to pay Paul.
America NEEDS to stop child sacrifice, stop celebrating perversion and return to God.
Barring that, you can build factories all day long to no avail.
IIRC Ron Paul has spoken to this for quite a while now.
Agreed on all points.
That all said, China does not act the same way, that America acts.
China does not allow foreigners, to buy or own (for all intents) anything.
Land. Companies. Everything remains in Chinese control.
China maintains control over their entire operation, while they buy and eliminate American companies.
I say enough.
Bring back jobs to America.
Stop selling out America.
Again, thanks for your response.
Maybe not to the North ha ha. You're one negative pissant.
So now you are going to start following me from thread to thread?
I am not negative. I am pragmatic.
You are so busy fighting the wars of the 1860’s you dont realize the USA of the 21st Century is in the crapper.
All the more reason to study the past. Secession is a good option when all else fails, which it is.
Yeah, worked out well last time.
bkmk
I agree with what the article has stated..that this was planned. I paid very careful attention as this went down....it was not hard seeing ‘something else’ was behind this event then what was being reported. Some, back then mentioned the huge withdrawals happpening on purpose..... There was way too many indications and evidence we were being played in a larger scheme. I believed it then and have no difficulty seeing it now.
Thank you for posting this..
True...but the game being played on the International Court is so often hidden and or clouded at best, we generally see only the “evidence” things are in play and often after the fact.
We may know there is a push to crash the dollar...the means , how and when that will be accomplished is speculation at best...confounded by the theorist's who are a great distraction from the facts. I often have thought even many of those are begun by those who really know what's going on in order to distract.
Whatever is to come you can be sure it will come with speed, urgency, and likely from so many directions that "panic" will be the likely response for a time......but even that is calculated into the agenda.
...”Bring back jobs to America”...
Why would they return when they can pay a China-man or third world person to do it for $4 a day? Heck I read all those guys you see hanging from China’s bridges get $10 to $14 dollars a day to build them and work their road construction crews....and that with a high death rate.
When our country began building and developing as it did...their were no regulations, and certainly nothing to stop it...China is in that mode...it doesn’t matter to them about safety and such...just grow, develope and build.
Heck our infastructure is bad and far from being fixed here with the rates unions set...and why we continue to fast become a third rate nation.
When you look at the Middle East cities and those going up throughout the developing countries...we are old/antique by comparison. Our cities build sports arenas and entertainment centers and think that’s really something.
The best and our brightest are going to where the action is, and it isn’t here....
....”The United States could rebuild its manufacturing infrastructure and capabilities IF IT DESIRED”....
Well that is key....don’t know if we have the manpower willing to get their hands dirty in manufacturing today, you got to be a man or woman who wants to feed their family and has the dignity to do so regardless if he wears jeans to the job or not. I don’t see this in our population today. Most want to sit behind a computer ‘job’....have meaningless meetings..and pretend they are significant.
