X22 Report, you have been one of the few sources consistently reporting the truth of the e"con"ometrics we are witnessing! The massive money printing "out of thin air" is the key to understanding why savers and retirees' value is being extracted due to suppression of market-priced interest rates. Borrowing and short-term living are rewarded while long-term relations are punished. The socially devastating effects of this are obvious.
John Williams' "Shadowstats" data shows what a consistent inflation report would reveal. While his predictions of eminent collapse have not come to pass, his core thesis that the price of steak in 1975 is not equivalent to the price of GMO hamburger in 2017 illuminates much truth! Despite what "hedonic price adjustments" would argue.
Tidal wave as your title suggests? Yes, unfortunately so. As the first sign of a tsunami is the water getting sucked out to an unusually low tide that lure many naive tourists out onto the suddenly waterless reef, it is only a precursor to the devastating wall of water soon to inundate. 'Nuff said! Keep up the great work.
Not to many. I have long been aware of the immoral purposes of this financial manipulation of 'consumers', and have had to practice considerable restraint in order to keep my internal house in order.
It is far easier to go with the flow - which is a large part of the purpose of such economic pressure.
Thanks for your insightful comment!
