Mike Whitney: 'The economic tsunami, just months away'

This looks to be written just for AIPAC-WhippedChimp. It's generally a good article, and I agree with it's prediction of big economic trouble sooner than later, as well as the imminent bombing/invasion of Iran. It plainly mirrors the views of many chimpsters.

But like any acceptable SC article, it doesn't mention the the role of the 1500lb elephant in the living room, the one with the skull cap. Probably just an oversight, And while it makes passing mention of the NWO agenda, it doesn't mention the national Dem party's complicity in events.

It makes sense to think of SC as a propaganda tool reinforcing the bogus left/right paradigm.. gatekeeping their flock within the Dem party's coral, pointing their attention/anger towards the evil repugs/righties, and keeping Israel's tail-wags-dog role in controlling both parties, conspicuously off the radar.

Yes, exactly! you nailed it, again. gate-keeping the flock, is exactly their missing-- as well as driving them toward supposedly "electable" candidates who represent the same special interest(s).

Okay when it comes to economics I'm lacking, but I've got questions about this whole stock market thing and the recent decrease in interest rates.
Now I'm very suspicious so my question is, is it possible that they are bringing down interest rates in order to not scare the people and say "see everything is okay"
Are they doing it to keep the market from plummeting. Or am I totally wrong about this?
I guess what I am asking is the government playing with the numbers to help keep us in the dark about the coming storm?

I'm not an interest rate expert either, but I know the interest rate the private banking cartel aka "the fed" controls is the "overnight rate" at which banks loan money to one another very short term, and the other longer term rates ie 30 year mortgages, are ostensibly "market driven". The cartel has been raising the short term overnight rate in 1/4% increments for some months, and will probably do so again when they meet next week. The longer term rates can and do sometimes move in a different direction than the overnight rate.

Yes I believe it is likely that TPTB are pumping out cooked economic numbers wherever they can.. seeking to conceal the depth of our current recession slipping into depression, to dupe the "alseep class" into living/spending like the party's still in full swing, setting them up for the worst fall when TPTB make TSHTF.

Note that they did same w/ gas prices. gas prices immediately rose when Bush took office, doubling by the end of his first term, and increasing substantially since. But the Times claims that this was such a nice slow tripling of our gas prices that it won't harm the economy-- just make it all the more hard for people to make ends meet, for which the Times solution is: "let them ride buses" (but buy cars, of course).
