What will the end game look like?

What else can be expected when all that keeps things going is "zero percent" interest rates, using someone else's money and consumer debt. There HAS to be a realignment.

And greed, self interest, apathy........

And people, in all of this, still have to eat.

So cotton we allow new Chinese money into Canada. Make a law that to work in the gov't you must now speak 3 languages. Then our gov't workers are entirely Chinese immigrants as they are the only ones with an education. The rest of us either partied our brains away or are still in process.

Errol just wondering why has the Natural Gas price come up so much from the low? Even though oil is down a dollar natural gas continues its climb up. And our oil and gas company stocks are going nuts yet today as they are involved with Natural Gas. Thank you Petrobakken.

I agree with Cotton, governments are trying,the print
money solution, which is the only one could work and
is responsible for the rush to buy land and gold.
Anything which people with cash think will hold its
value as cash is devalued by this quantative easing.

I dont think there is any agenda to Chinese land
buying just the desire to turn cash into an asset. I
myself would rather own land than have cash in the
bank today. In fact I think I would rather have
anything physical.

If we have the other option Cotton describes, which is
what will happen when the quanative easing loses
credibility.
I dont think cash will be king or not the cash we
have today.
I dont think democracy would survive. I think at some
stage quite soon in the true senario he describes law
and order would break down as the disposesed take
to the streets.

Would the police or army be able or even willing to
take back control if not I think we would see how
fragile our just in time civilisation is.

In a just in time civilization a farmer with grain or food in the bin should be well off. The part that does not make sense is that we as Western Canadian farmers have been heavily subsidized by our Canadian gov't up till now. Then we get bought out to some extent. It does not make economic sense to keep pouring money into something that does not pay back. Yet when we allow foriegne money into Canada it can make sense for today.

[Hopperbin]

Ian cash gets immigrants into Canada.

How can law and order not survive? We vote. One can protest or riot like in England etc we are quite mellow here,

Not sure what your question is.

Global capital flows have been around for quite some
time.

Thankfully gold is so cheap because the rich western
world has no clue.-for the tenth year in a row
