 King of Debt vs. Queen of Deficits |
| The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) estimates the total deficit for fiscal
2016 will be $590 billion. This is $152 billion (34%) greater than the shortfall
posted in fiscal year 2015. And by 2026 the deficit would be considerably larger
as a share of the nation's output (GDP) than its average over the past 50 years.
In addition to this, debt held by the public would rise significantly from
its already high level, reaching 86% of GDP by 2026.

| Wake the fuck up! Today we turn from the sordid dumbshow of Election 2016 to the parlous mysteries of finance and economics behind our sick politics. Most of the commentary in the mainstream special needs news media is based on the incorrect notion that the current disposition of things is sure to continue and therefore all we have to do is manage the familiar dynamics of the operating system in place. For instance, Grand Vizier Paul Krugman iTuesday, August 9, 2016 |

| Survival These Pokemon Go Zombies Failed At Reality: “Bumping Into Things, Falling ... |
| When it comes to survival, you can count out large swaths of millennials who are busy playing the latest mobile video game craze, and are instead winning the Darwin Award in locales all around the world.

| We are always watching for information regarding the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO), Eurasian Economic Union (EEU), BRICS and One Belt, One Road (new Silk Road) project.
The consortiums listed above headed by China and Russia,
