Fellow Americans. Our country is in danger, more people should read this article, the U.S. News media is corrupt to the core they are brainwashing the people, we should tell the truth to the American people and our only hope is the internet; the readers have the power! They decide which information goes around the globe! You may not be aware of it, but if each reader sends a link to 3 other interested persons, it only takes 20 steps to join 3,486,784,401 people! You want to see it happen? Use your power!
3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 = 3,486,784,401
Help us to spread the truth, pass this on and help us to take our country back. The secret of freedom lies in educating people, whereas the secret of tyranny is in keeping them ignorant.

Fellow Americans, are you ready for the economic collapse that will come next year?. The fiscal abuse done by this corrupt government by expending trillions of Dollars and getting us into this economic collapse is very close and nothing can be done to stop it; no this government or the financial system will be spare, our U.S. Government is bankrupt and most of the EU countries and banks are in a huge financial crisis and they will not be able to pull out of this crisis. Here in the U.S. we have 2533 banks that are in big financial crisis, they invested in the EU Financial Banks , this is a crisis done by our own Government, Bill Clinton and the Democrats on the housing mess, Bush getting our country into the wars and the Obama bail outs, our National debt is over 16 trillion and growing every day. On http://www.courtfool.info/US_Debt_Clock.htm you can see the current debt and you can see how much it grows each second… 45 % of it is to be paid back to foreign borrowers. The foreign debt is that high, that the US cannot pay back her debt anymore. The US is bankrupt.
Now is the time to tell the truth to the American people, Politicians and the News media are holding the truth about what is going to take place in the next few months. After the elections the whole U.S. Economic will collapse. The ones responsible for this catastrophe are the Washington corrupt politician, The U.S. Federal reserve Bank, The financial Institutions, including Wall Street. This will be a world financial crisis and not one can do anything to stop it, it is to late; they can kick the can and prolong the crisis and make it worse but save our economic and retain our standard of living it is impossible. We as individuals can save ourselves and survive this crisis by implementing a culture of interdependence and learn to work in unity to help each other to become the best we can be and contribute to the economic of our community. Interdependence should be the base for our community economic grows. We must develop our economic on trust, honesty, integrity and values, we must end the mentality of getting what we want at others expenses and by exploitation of others.
This is what is going to take place in our country:
1- Federal and State Government will cut expenses, no more bail outs and many federal jobs will be gone; city service will be cut, police force and many city jobs will be cut of.
2- Crime will grow as a result of unemployment, you need to be preparing to defend your property and family and get your neighborhood organized to establish security and deal with crimes.
3- We need to learn to establish community living and share expenses.
4- Transportation expenses can be minimized by carpooling.
5- Check your bank rating and change your account to a more safe banks
6- Keep your privacy, this government knows too much about you already, do not let people know about your values and property you own, do not become target of criminals.
7- Invest your money on tangible access, Gold-silver or land.
8- Shield your investments.
9- 6 Invest smart buy stocks on companies that will survive this crisis.
