As we know some say 20 and another is 80 per barrel on that commodity.
Whe the cup is half full the answer is yes. If it stabalized at 80 later it was stated maybe 82 so
until then we will see who is around at 40 by 2018. We cover alot around here.

I am from Russia and I know a lot abour Russian economy. Recently I have found Russian statistic agency annual data 1992-2014. Oil and gas production = not changed, Food production = increased, Manufacturing 2000-2015 = plunging. Debt 2000-2015 - from $160 bln to $580 bln. Manufacturing and agriculture workers number 2000-2015 - 15% down. Goverment clerks 2000-2015 - plus 100%. By the way, plunging during yeltsin was much smaller, than plunging during putin. Actually, mr putin = globalist and bilderbergers servant, having order to destroy Russia softly and slowly. He can talk any pro-Russian gibberish, but at the same time his greedy jewish friends pillaging Russia.
All government work to fight crisis - just invent new taxes, to get something, they can steal.

Was checking some Herfindahl index numbers which provides a better picture of industry concentration than does the concentration ratio.

Oligopoly has its own market structure.

Changing gears so here it is.

As for some other structures and numbers of enclaved attitudes I would forward the diversity crowd is rather disturbed and basically insane
given the debauchery's from even last years numbers.

Even more troubling, is the fact that nearly a quarter of the Muslims polled believed that, “It is legitimate to use violence to punish those who give offense to Islam by, for example, portraying the prophet Mohammed.”
By contrast, the broader survey found that a 63% majority of those sampled said that “the freedom to engage in expression that offends Muslims or anybody else is guaranteed by the U.S. Constitution and cannot be restricted.”
Nearly one-fifth of Muslim respondents said that the use of violence in the United States is justified in order to make shariah the law of the land in this country.

The numbers are clear to what was as we already seen and the upcoming policy debates to normalcy bias even from the the litmus test of the Emory Study. http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/20 ... 092225.htm

As we seen in real time both sides of the isle are self licking ice cream addicts.

"It is not that government has lacked information needed to fix the problem. It is institutionally incapable of bringing about the desired result, since the principles of profit and loss, private property and contract, enterprise and entrepreneurship, do not exist in government. Any Government operates with an eye to its own short-term survival, and those of its connected interest groups, and nothing else." Mises

In other words, there is a real antagonism, an incompatibility, a mutual exclusiveness between liberty and enforced equality.
We can only monitor the condition. On a longer and accurate encyclical view they cannot understand the most dangerous
place they are actually in.

As always the future was yesterday. It was no mistake to dilute for the effect of the fabricated consensus.
The decline will be constant and only noted in abrogated terms.

Politics is local at the end of the day. Violence is the vestage of the incompetent. Human nature is based on it.

Ethics move to separate discussion as always.

Others see the crack up boom we seen coming also. The magnitude is being seen from ground level for some time J.

We're in sort of the lull before the hyperinflation-like storm begins this year in my opinion. The impetus will be the realization that the energy producers have been destroyed and a quick surge in oil prices is needed to prevent global deflationary lockup. As we know, that will occur through manipulation in the futures markets, not real demand, resulting in further demand destruction.

My first guess is that Japan gets a flight from JGBs and a "crack up boom" and hyperinflation. This causes a huge demand for gold and silver, both from Japanese and other places, and a flight from other types of bonds. Then other hyperinflation.

My second guess is the US stock market crashes and the Fed comes out with QE4. People then realize the Fed and other central banks can't stop printing money. This then triggers a flight from bonds into real goods, or the "crack up boom". Then the hyperinflation feedback loop becomes unstoppable.

But it is probably not possible to predict the trigger, just to tell that conditions are ripe for a hyperinflation positive feedback loop. Again, Japan seems more ripe but if Japan gets it the US ripens fast.

The Fed may even do some things before the stock market crashes. My guess is actually that the inflation and surge in oil prices will trigger the stock market crash, similar to late 1973/1974. I really think the Fed has to get oil prices up soon. Another reason for that is too many oil producing countries are becoming too destabilized.

The funny thing of course is that the Fed's very low interest rate is why it was profitable to borrow money and go fracking. So the Fed's cheap money made oil cheap, for awhile.

If we look at oil as a currency, oil being cheap makes the dollar a more valuable currency, for awhile. So amazingly printing lots of money has increased the value of the dollar, for awhile...

Of course government messing with the economy must end badly, eventually.

"Violence is the vestage of the incompetent" -- Really? Who won WWII, how did Gengas Kahn create his empire, what did Alexander the Great do, how was the U S of A created, etc,
They all did what they did because of the successful application of violence --- Just observe nature, in the animal kingdom, generally speaking, one kills to eat, and humans are part of the animal kingdom.

Yes, I agree. Now it's time to pay the piper as they say. And I think the piper will be demanding an exceptionally large payment.

It seems like we are at the SHTF point, but I am amazed we have lasted this long so I just don't know.
