Truesee's Daily Wonder

Didn't Reagan run away from Lebanon after 240 marines were slaughtered in Beirut?
President Obama went after bin Laden and got him in 2 years when George W.Bush couldn't get him in over 7 years! In addition he has decimated the ranks of Al Quaida!
Doesn't that make President Obama stronger than both Reagan and Bush?

Bo, is the weakest because he has done nothing for the people except to add more to welfare and food stamps, while stifiling this economy...
Taking care of (1) person doesn't constitute strength. What about the Millions of others here in this country, who have lost just about everything because of this slouch..?

The world is in flames due to Obama's foreign policy and you and some liberal blog want to talk about the 80's?
Heh,heh,heh,heh,heh...
I don't blame you.
You certainly don't want to talk about the disaster of the last 3 1/2 years.
Can you say President Romney?
See, I knew ya could!
Heh,heh,heh,heh,heh...

“Dollar Index Headed for Rapid Collapse” Over Next 3 to 4 Weeks

If you think the Federal Reserve’s quantitative easing will only affect the US dollar, think again. Now that the United States has officially begun it’s third round of money printing to the tune of at least $40 billion monthly, central banks around the world will also act to ‘defend’ their currencies in kind.

Moreover, because everyone is joining the fray, all of that extra money will make its way into key resource stocks and commodities, adding further upside price pressure to essential goods like food and fuel.

It’s a race to the bottom, and the losers are the 99.9% of us who aren’t being kept in the loop.


Quantitative easing is really another word for currency wars. A weak U.S. currency puts continued pressure on the Japanese Yen, the Chinese Yuan, the South Korean Won, the Australian dollar and other currencies.

Cheap money also fuels speculation and this money quickly drifts into commodity markets and the ETFs that help propel commodity market speculation. This is inflationary for food prices.

The lower the U.S. dollar the greater the intensity of currency wars. The break below the key uptrend line on the Dollar Index chart was an early warning of the third round of quantitative easing (QE3).



The most important question now is to use the chart to examine the potential downside limits of a QE3 weakened U.S. dollar.

…

The weekly close below this uptrend line was the first signal of a major change in the trend direction. It came before the announcement of QE3, last week.

…

The third significant feature is historical support near 74.5. This is the upper edge of a consolidation band between 73.5 and 74.5. This is the downside target for the Dollar Index following a fall below 79.

This target can be reached very rapidly over three to four weeks. A rapid collapse of the U.S. dollar puts immediate pressure on other dollar-linked currencies.

There is a very low probability the U.S. dollar will resume its uptrend. The move below the value of the uptrend line and a fall below 79 confirm that a new downtrend has developed.

The weakness in the U.S. Dollar will hurt export dependent economies and companies.

There are two ways this may end – neither of which is going to be good for the average Joe:
■The Fed et. al. continue to print, so much so that prices for food, gas, utilities and other key commodities that are linked to US dollar movements will rise exponentially. This rise in prices will accelerate the pressure on consumers as more jobs are lost in an ever progressing, self reinforcing economic death spiral. The pressure of rising prices, even though the Dow Jones may reach 20,000 or 50,000 points, will be so great that American consumers simply won’t be able to pay their bills or put food on the table.
■The Fed and their brethren around the world won’t be able to print fast enough to maintain stable financial markets, leading to stock market crashes in Europe, Japan, China and the United States, which then leads to a shift of capital to US Treasury bonds, ironically strengthening the dollar. A weak US economy that isn’t creating jobs and is adding tens of thousands of people to an already overburdened social safety net every week will eventually lead to confidence being lost in the US government’s ability to repay its debts. As we noted in 2012 Predictions of a Mad Tin Foilist, the end result will be a currency crisis, or de facto default by way of hyperinflating away our debt.

Both scenarios are virtually the same, as both will end with complete and utter destruction of Americans’ wealth.

Despite the mainstream notion that inflation is under control and most of the money is sitting on the sidelines with banks, all we need to do is look at the price increases for consumers since private and public bailouts begin in late 2008. Gas has doubled. Food is up over 25%. Electricity costs and the cost of just about every other non-debt based asset has steadily risen.

This is not going to stop.

While timelines remain elusive because of never ending government intervention into financial markets and economies, the policies being instituted by central banks around the world can only lead to continued degradation of paper currencies and the rise in prices of all goods linked to those currencies.

In January of 2010 we suggested a strategy of buying physical commodities at today’s lower prices and consuming those commodities at tomorrow’s higher prices. The trend for fiat paper money and physical assets has not changed and is, in fact, more pronounced now than ever before.

The US dollar is being systematically weakened until it no longer exists as a viable means of exchange. When this happens you’d better be prepared to operate in a society where traditional money is replaced with mechanisms of exchange like precious metals, food, critical supplies and production skills.

You can begin taking simple steps to prepare now. The collapse of the existing global paradigm is accelerating and if you’re not ready for it the price you’ll pay will be severe.

"President Obama went after bin Laden and got him in 2 years "

Gee, I though the Navy Seals got Bin Laden, silly me.

Let's see, the very day that Reagan was inaugaurated the Iranians gave the hostages back, after 144 days. They knew there wasn't a p*ssy in the White House anymore.

Yeah!
Reagan gave the Iranians WMD's too to use on Iraq in their long war for holding The Hostages longer so he could claim the credit for what Jimmy Carter accomplished.
You don't have to be too smart to wonder why they were released on Reagan's inaugauration day to know it was set up ahead of time.
Bush spent over 7 years and the Navy seals under him didn't get bin Laden because Bush,his,daddy,and whole family were business partners with the bin laden family.
Reagan honored bin Laden in a White House ceremony where he gave him a very expensive sniper rifle.
How many American troops do you thing bin Laden killed with his gift from Ronnie Reagan?

Boobyah, Your are so full of CRAP, your eye's are turning a different color.

Where do you come up with this crap your posting? From the walls of the little boys room I'll bet..!
