Max Keiser did an interview of John Rubino (DollarCollapes.com). https://www.rt.com/shows/keiser-report/483230-vaccine-covid-19-pandemic/at 22 minutes:John says that there are two scenarios to fix a broken financial system. The 1930s deflationary depression where all the debt gets wiped off through default, or a Wiemar Germany hyperinflation where one attempts to wipe out the debt by inflating it away. Both are extremely painful. No other way to normality. But BC will come to the rescue - we hope.Before 2008, the Fed said it knew how to break the cycle of boom and bust. Alan Greenspan was revered as such a guru and financial expert, but he was trying to flout the basics of economics - as if the second law of thermodynamics could be ignored and entropy reversed. They are still trying to keep a zombie economy afloat.My wife and I do not know how or where to invest at a time like this. We have just not put all our eggs in one basket, and are hoping that diversification will help. The long lines at the supermarkets are quite clear in Joburg. Traffic in the streets is down. How does one quarantine a squatter camp? How do people who live from day to day stay in a 2 x 2 meter tin shack for 30 to 60 days?But why are such people not among the explosion of cases as they normally are? They are the drivers, the porters, the cleaners and so on.While I agree with Max on many things, cryptocurrency is not one of them. It is interesting that gold is not rising. For two reasons - those who have bought in 2008 and are holding on, and those who need to sell to pay their margin calls.
Why is the medical profession the most worried?

Quote from: CliveG on Yesterday at 07:56:28 Fox News had nothing but corona stories.Citing faux news does not improve your credibility.
It's a bit like worship; you can post about God or Mammon, but not both.
Quote from: CliveG on Yesterday at 07:56:28 Still in denial. I take it you are not in a "hot" zone.So, remind me, what have I "denied"?It's not clear how "hot" this zone (The UK) is. I have been sent home from work.
Huh? God does not like the worship of money. I am pointing that out.
Just as the afterlife judgement will surely come to pass
In one week, all news outlets are solid corona related. In one week, the enormity of what we face has hit home.
Praying that God helps.

Quote from: CliveG on 18/03/2020 06:53:54Praying that God helps.Come off it, Clive. God created COVID inter alia to put your wife's employees on the breadline (not that there's any bread). An omniscient being has no defence of "unintended consequences" - this is deliberate impoverishment and murder on a global scale. Why on earth should he change his mind in response to your petty grumbling?
humankind can learn from its mistakes.
My wife has earned her place in heaven, but I can see how blessed she is on this earth. Just another bit of evidence that there is a good probability that God exists.
So Clive's god doesn't actually create or ordain anything, but is a spectator. Hardly worth a mention, let alone a crusade.

Hardly worth a mention, let alone a crusade.Worse than that, Clive's God put the serpent in the garden of Eden (knowing full well what the consequences would be), then blamed humanity for the consequences of His own act.To top it off, he then convinced the people that it was their fault.Nasty piece of work.
Alan and BC are conflating all these Gods in order to discredit the CG God.
God can listen to every prayer and grant even some small ones.
