  1. You Mentioned this administration being Berkshire Hathaways.

    “Under the legislation, parents or guardians would get $3,600 in direct annual payments for children under six and $3,000 payment for children aged six to 17. The bill makes the payment fully refundable, meaning low-income families can access the full amount even if they don’t owe any income taxes. The legislation would cost $117 billion a year.”

    Proposals Like these are in Truth Reverse Bank Bailouts. Who is likely to have mortgage, credit, auto debt? Parents. Berkshire Biggest Banks are BAC and USB. Primarily Consumer Banks. Not to mention AXP.

    Looks like they’ve unplug all the stops and are really gonna loot the country/treasury now. While buffet takes that cash and piles it into Japnese conglomerates, Chinese electric cars, and other offshore things.

    1. They Know the Private Sector Debt+ Compound Interest is unsustainable so they’re just gonna completely paper over everything

  2. New to the report. Trying to understand all the data and info. Do you foresee a market crash happening? If so, besides precious metals, what do you suggest to ride out the storm?

  3. Along the themes of this week’s report, I am really curious what people are seeing as far as fresh vegetable supplies. I am noticing in our local organic grocery store, less and less quality vegetables that they normally have this time of year. I am also noticing more shelf space for Biowarfare Burgers and other franken foods. Curious what others are seeing around the country.

    2. Hi mhale, Easton, Md has a large Amish Market in renovated super market Thursday to Saturday traveling from Lancaster , Pa. Fresh meat, poultry, deli, cheese, local vegetable, on site bakery and large cooked food section. Also outside farmers market all year fresh greens even in winter from green houses. Local Acme super market has everything. Acme has good produce, all grocery items,seafood and bakery. I do three trips each week, Tuesday Acme 5 % off senior discount. Thursday Amish for cream puffs, cooked ribs, cooked chicken, cheese, veg & fruit… Saturday Farmers market for fresh greens and to see what’s available.

        1. Hi Catherine, Do you plan to visit Keukenhof gardens in a couple weeks ? I could have spent the week at the gardens. We did a London, Bruges, Brussels and Amsterdam trip in 2013. Easiest trip ever my sister in law was doing a lecture series on IT governance. She had travel agent book the trip for her and husband. I just had to call travel agent and say please add two. While waiting at train station in London I was talking with gentleman about our trip. He said you will love Bruges where he Honeymooned. It was great. Keep Smiling Steve

    3. For the Netherlands…just started buying from a website that aggregates all organic from multiple local farmers etc. Quality is amazing. They deliver twice a week. Noticeable difference in how I feel.

    4. Franken foods are here but still lots of good vegies. The owners and clientele are keen on vegetables here as there are loads of vegetarians. I suppose that helps.

      1. More than a decade ago my husband was told by a microbiologist friend to never ever give your dna to a company like that.

        1. Multiple of my siblings have already done DNA testing. They believe any hesitancy I have with “The Matrix” is paranoia and a conspiracy theory.

          The kind of shenanigans an oppressive regime could do with DNA are very significant… and framing “enemies” of the state would be a trivial endeavor.
