Further critique of Financialisation
 

#SIGH#

Now we're all predictors of the future!!!
The tide comes in and it goes out. Always has done and always will do.
The sun rises in the morning and sets in the evening. Always has done and always will do.
Geese fly south. Always have done and always will do.
People are born and then they die. Always have done and always will do.

The world's economy has zigs and then it has zags. Yip you've guessed it.....always has done and always will do.

I'm starting to believe there are professional scaremongers in the world. Hang on a mo.....they're called politicians :thumbdown:

And yet, the elephant is still in the room, piling up dung all over the carpet that is the world economy:-
Wall Street Has Taken Over the Economy and is Draining It

For sure, the politicians need a scare story to replace the earlier scare stories that are no longer valid - "fool all of the people some of time etc etc."

Living beyond our means
 

Here's another analysis of what is in store with an economy, in this case specifically the economy of the UK.
A crash is coming if we don't begin real investment

The appended comments are as perceptive as the main article, but it will be just fine so long as we have premier league football and X factor/"Talent" TV programmes to watch each Saturday night.

The author of the article has an amount of authority for his subject:-
John Mills biography - economist, entrepreneur and political commentator

Read my previous post......it still applies :thumbup1:

Fear sells.

I turned off th political mouth pieces years ago and am far better off because of it.

Damn. And I was planning for such a long time, to sell everything, buy some stocks and live from the 3-monthly emissions...:helpsmilie:

Ever hear of 'Paralysis by Analysis'


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analysis_paralysis

Tell that to the dinosaurs.

Humans as we know them haven't been around all that long, relative to the age of the planet.

Humans will very likely commit self extinction as we saturate the planet with petrochemicals.
But who knows, maybe the age of Aquarius will prevail. :D

.....or your medication will wear off, whichever occurs first!! bier

Bush Pilot to the rescue
 

ChrisFS, I think what Bush Pilot means is we recognize the spiritual beings we are and drop the meat bodies. Matter of fact soon before the most recent age of Aquarius began, (2012) I wrote the following poem which explains my take on Bush Pilot's post.


xfiltrate Eat , Drink and Keep Meditating

Didn't Edward V George write that in 1979?

You got it right this time
 

ChrisFS, Did you get the point about the age of Aquarius?

In addition, let me try to explain. You see xfiltrate is my screen name and "EVG" is my real name and yes I wrote the poem in 1979 - in terms of the 2,160 years of the recent age of Aquarius my 1979 poem was written soon before the most recent age. Soon being relative to the more than 2,160 years of the age - which is the 26,000 year progression divided by 12 representing the 12 zodiac signs.

Would you like to see my copyright for my poem "Set Your Spirit Free" ? I have it handy as I have published this poem. Or just ask rosa del desierto my real name, or ask Grant or Susan - founders of horizons unlimited because I use my real name , not my screen name, when purchasing ads on the HUBB, so they know who I am.

If you have any other questions please feel free to ask, but perhaps we should stay on topic. My poem was used to illustrate my take on Bush Pilot's post - did you get it?

xfiltrate/EVG

I think I've lost interest :D

Very well.
 

Have you lost interest or, has your medication worn off? To quote your response to Bush Pilot.

Please try to stay focused on the topic, some of us really try to say something meaningful here.
