Quote from bad feeling:
I remember times when questioning the almighty US dollar was enough to certify a person as insane. The fact that people are even discussing the issue shows red flags. But also there is such a thing as self fulfilling prophesy. For example in recession when people abstain from spending they are furthering the recession.
Also in Canada their prime minister Stephen Harper, told the nation few days ago to be proud of their economy but ALSO to prepare for rough times ahead
Quote from arealpissedgoy:
The Canadian economy is wholly natural resource based and it's east coast manufacturing is close to 90% dependent on the US economy.
When the US and therefore the global economy slows down, the Canadian economy will get hit hard. Trees never grow to the moon, neither does an economy grow upwards in perpetuity. Especially un-diversified ones. Maybe Harper is the only honest politician around.
Quote from TorontoTrader2:
indeed. They will have us begging, pleading them for the North American Union - playing direclty into the elite bankers' hands.
Lots of pain ahead, a mini Great Depression, engineered by the bankers. For them, it's not about money - it's about control. When you have unlimited money and the abilty to print it at will, the game changes. Wage slaves like oursevles have a hard time understanding that.
Quote from dandxg:
Tim Morge, a trader I very much respect, told a group of us recently if it comes to a complete meltdown you will do better with a gun and bullets than some coins, whether they be gold or silver.
I think we are likely to have a global recession, but not a full blown meltdown. Possibly some US stagflation too.
