I do not see anything about the derivatives bubble popping nor BRICS nor rehypothecated gold. I think that the derivatives fraud is the lit fuse to spread the contagion like a wildfire in tinder dry conditions.
War has been mentioned previously, so what about strategic alliances of, say, Russia and China, ganging up on the west, in particular the USA and NATO? Where does that factor in?
The world's elite do not care about borders. They use the biggest religion of all time against everyone. The religion of Flag Worship. That is how they play nation states off against each other. I do think that it is a big mistake to discredit their ultimate master plan of culling the human race to a population of less than 1 billion.
Rothschild just inherited a multi-billion technology due to the demise of certain partners on a Malaysian flight. How-convenient.
Also nary a mention of black ops programs within the US Military Industrial Complex. The shadow government is very real. Wealth, secrets, and ultimately power has flowed into them for at least 6 decades. In effect they are a more advanced sub-species of humanity using the very thing that you purport to our ultimate safety net - technology.
Governments do not control currency. That is a false assumption. They are a front for the real players. Global Corporate Fascists control the economics of this planet and are the government. While Armstrong is a smart man and seems to have made some timely predictions, I think that he is out in left field with some of his rants.
All of this being said, digital currency is the future. It will be global in nature. But it will not be good for any of us because the technology that they use to control will be so domineering that TBTB will be able to cut you off if you are non compliant with whatever law they decide to throw at you from their pedestals.
Farmland, some livestock, fruit, vegetables, weapons, precious metals, off-the grid power is the way. And as this blue ball spins its way to oblivion it sounds like the best plan for my family and me. Those that are not self-sufficient will end up relying on government handouts and have to be a slave of the nanny state. And she is one mean bitch.
