We can thank the Clintons for the tough on crime policies back in 94 and the congress who voted on them from schools to increasing sentences and building new prisons. Then came NAFTA allowing jobs to cross borders. They are just backward thinking. What caused the rebellion of the 80s and 90s of children looked at as something to fear? Them, trying to play parent and a lousy abusive one at that making it worse by using Schools s a gate way to prisons. And instead of keeping jobs here not by force but incentive they signed them away. Much damage was done during those years that were increasingly abused by zero intelligence inforcers through time. It is also discrimitave. Now their starting to re think them. Duh
just say no.
“As a retired physician, I can honestly say that unless you are in a serious accident, your best chance of living to a ripe old age is to avoid doctors and hospitals and learn nutrition and other forms of natural medicine unless you are fortunate enough to have a Maximized Living doctor (emphasis mine) available. Almost all drugs are toxic and are designed only to treat symptoms and not to cure anyone. Vaccines are highly dangerous, have never been adequately studied or proven to be effective, and have a poor risk/reward ratio. Most surgery is unnecessary and most textbooks of medicine are inaccurate and deceptive. Almost every disease is said to be idiopathic (without known cause) or genetic – although this is untrue. In short, our main stream medical system is hopelessly inept and/or corrupt. The treatment of cancer and degenerative diseases is a national scandal. The sooner you learn this, the better off you will be.” -Dr. Allan Greenberg

“a long way off”
Only the Shadow knows …
This could be quite a breakthrough
‘Cyborg’ spinal implant could help paralysed walk again
Paralysed patients have been given new hope of recovery after rats with severe spinal injuries walked again through a ‘groundbreaking’ new cyborg-style implant.
In technology which could have come straight out of a science fiction novel or Hollwood movie, French scientists have created a thin prosthetic ribbon, embedded with electrodes, which lies along the spinal cord and delivers electrical impulses and drugs.
The prosthetic, described by British experts as ‘quite remarkable’, is soft enough to bend with tissue surrounding the backbone to avoid discomfort.
Paralysed rats who were fitted with the implant were able to walk on their own again after just a few weeks of training.
Researchers at the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne are hoping to move to clinical trials in humans soon. They believe that a device could last 10 years in humans before needing to be replaced.

Ipso – I’m not planning on holding onto
GTIM until TSHTF – it’s in a great position, small cap, tightly held, and winning restaurant concepts playing to those who have $$$
Heck, what makes you think the precious stocks will do well when TSHTF? Some good money has been made in the gold/silver stocks since late Nov – early Dec until now. And more will likely be made in the coming months, it seems.
But hold them till this ball of string comes undone? I think not. I think I’ll want something besides stocks when the undoing arrives. It is still a long ways off…since the entire system is now corrupted and we have generations of govvy educated idiots playing the lemmings role…who or what will put a stop to it all? Musical chairs being played now; and the music just started…

Any parent trying to raise kids in Southern California back in 70-80s and on who’s kids were harassed by playing out side by illegals or steal or bully the younger kids then get harassed again from police for either picking on the poor illegals for defending themselves from them or getting accused with something for parents even letting them go out to play because of it knows how backwards they system is. The result was the americans got the out of there to protect their kids plus cars plus over crowded non English speaking school system plus belongings and anything not nailed down, grafitty on their fences, drugs, gamgs, ruining a lot of neighborhood that once were safe. Once they get away with one thing they move to the next. Pretty soon there will be no where for kids to play if they have their way.

Guessing their gonna devise a way to make kids pay for play. Does that surprise any of us. Instead they could move to more dangerous places as a result. They want to turn kids into couch potatoes listening to propaganda and smut or playing video games afraid to go out without breaking some ordnance to is slaves they made up.

Nice chart for GTIM.
I don’t think that restaurants will do very well when the shtf. Who knows … that may take a long time.
@Maddog re The dollar is moving like there is something very big going on
Remember way back when Obama on TV pleading to businesses said …”America needs a raise”? Well, a lot of general people are getting a raise with lower energy prices. Also its not the first time we have falling heating oil in the winter time.
Unfortunately, energy business and people are losing out. Everybody gets a turn for feast or famine. Sectors, countries, etc. The Oil glut dropping prices story? I don’t buy it. I see TPTB doing a stronger dollar play causing lower oil.
I also think TPTB lowered the dollar to stimulate European countries and Japan. My question is…How long will they run this trend? The USA imo was the global beneficiary from 2009 until June 2014, 5 years. Will we get a one year hit with 6 months left? Or a 5 year hit? Hit meaning stronger dollar.
And Q-E?? Its meaningless with interest rates going down anyway without Q-E.

Agreed re Dollar….The dollar is moving like there is something very big going on…..but what ?????
A great example of how mad it all is
Santander is now Europes largest bank, it is Spanish and therefore chock full of dodgy property loans, to name just one of the thousands of crap “assetts” in its basement. It is the poster child of all that is wrong in the EU…….and then we get this……
All is clearly not well below the surface. Europe’s largest bank (by market value) has admitted in a regulatory filing that it needs to raise capital. As WSJ reports, Banco Santander SA said it would raise up to €7.5 billion ($8.88 billion) in a capital hike, a bid to address long-running concerns among investors and analysts that its financial cushion was weaker than peers. European banking stocks are up over 2% today as Italian banks surge
limit up (BMPS +13%) on speculation that they will be purchased by Santander (who ‘pumpers’ believe are raising this capital to go on a spending spree) and ‘old’ Draghi headlines.

You may be right about a smash tomorrow, I’m surprised we’re holding up as well as we are today with the DOW now positive for 2015.
At some point I have to think the Fed is going to need to talk the USD down.

I hope so too!
