Zero Hedge predicts Financial Pain

http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-02-26/stockman-after-march-15-everything-will-grind-halt

The economy has been on life support since 2008 and TARP or QE1. The US has been recklessly running up debt at record levels since that time. Match 15, 2017 Obama and Boehner's deb ceiling holiday expires and reaches its firm limit of $20 trillion.

So, why counldn't Trump just keep on printing more money like his $1 Trillion in infrastructure spending?  Trump may not be able to keep the party going because 1. TPTB want the crash, 2. the Republican Congress is divided.   Zero Hedge is predicting severe market turbulence or they are crying wolf yet again. However, with Trump instead of the FED getting blamed, I can see it happenimg this time.

The only thing different this time around is that there is a lack of unity in the Republican Party thanks to Sen. Graham and McCain. We could see some trouble if TPTB wished to blame economic trouble on Trump. The FED has not been allowing financial problems because they didn't want to get the blame. Now with Trump in office, they may have a scapegoat.

Yes, TPTB could "kick the can down the road" as long as they wanted. But they can also "pull the plug" at any time.

Iodine-131 in Europe

Small quantities of Iodine-131 have been detected in Europe.  Now WC-135 "nuke sniffer" aircraft are being deployed in Europe to investigate.  I'm wouldn't be surprised if these reconnaissance aircraft do more than measure radioactivity. Is this an example of problem, reaction, solution?

Snowden

Snowden didn't tell us anything we didn't already know. Especially those of us who listen to Alex Jones or Joel Skousen.

But the real problem I have with Snowden is that his revelations didn't implicate anyone. Furthermore, Snowden doesn't put the whole globalist picture together and tell the world that this is a massive globalist conspiracy like JFK tried to do. Snowden doesn't provide any names of high-level conspirators and evidence of their nefarious goals.   All Snowden is saying is the government is snooping on all our on-line/telephone activity.

Snowden further doesn't explain the danger of the meta-data gathering. The NSA could create a database where the population is given a score for certain posts or searches or website visits. Visiting inforwars.com or making a post on globalist conspiracy could earn an individual a certain number of points. Then at some certain future date, a legion of automated drones could be released with an order 66 to target US citizens (smart phone SIM cards) with a score above a certain number.

NSA doesn't need to save all our online conversations and activity. All the surveillance needs to do is to tell if we are awake to, and oppose the globalist conspiracy and then keep score and make a list of potential malcontents.
