We often wonder what happens during a money reform. What about savings? What about our mortgage or other debt? We do have some examples from the past. I found an article about the German reform from Reichsmark to D-mark.

Chris Martenson was interviewed by Jim Puplava of Financial Sense Newshour.  Here's the description on their website:

The following is Part I in a two part series of articles on the relatively rapid emergence and collapse of the "debt-dollar discipline" imposed on our global society. It is being done in two installments mainly due to my current time constraints, but also for the sake of shorter length and targeted focus. This part will introduce Michel Foucault's (renowned french philosopher, 1926-1984) analysis of "discipline" and "punish" in the modern state, and apply it to the global debt-dollar reserve system.

I post this not to scare everyone, but to wake them up! Time is running out and some of us are warning as many as we can. The second link is a conversation with jim Puplava and John Butler as they discuss the Fed and Government, bankers as they have their backs against the wall. What can be the next step. Jon

New Fed Reserve policy options: The first conversation.

I would like to find a financial advisor in the Boston area who I can trust and who knows about and believes in Peak Oil, Climate Change, and the terrible state of our U.S.

Today Venezuela devalued their currency by 50% and told all businesses that if they raise prices the government will seize them.  In other words, they are going to seize everything.  While perhaps not a total shock, Venezuela is the 30th (or it was in 2008) biggest GDP in the world, above Greece, Switzerland, Austria....and many other first world countries.  The fact this is not front page news is a big surprise (or, maybe it isnt anymore).

I just finished listening to Jim Puplava's interview of Harry Dent Jr. as part of the ongoing "inflation/deflation debate" series they're doing over at FSN.  I highly recommend listening to the archives if you haven't done so already.

Ever notice how "changing the subject" can get you out of the dog house? I have been trying to figure out why this administration is pushing this huge agenda at a time when we should be plugging the holes in the financial sector, and then it occurred to me - It's a smoke screen, a distraction, a way to cover up for other important issues, (Read: Financial "Hide the Weenie"). So what is the cover up? What is the big thing or things that we are missing? I am guessing it’s financial but it could be something even bigger.
