Dr. Love……………………………two words explains it all, both systems are now PRINTING MONEY………………if the everything was moving smoothly, they would not need to print money, every time they do so, it is causing inflation, all prices are now inflated while the value of the dollar is declining…………..at this rate one million dollars will very shortly be worth thousands, unless something is done to arrest inflation.

That is why i have been telling those who are seeing huge dollar signs in the form of reparations, don’t be so quick to want paper money, in saying that i heard Hilary Beckles is pushing for reparations in the form of education for people of African descent, if he is indeed, i am all for it; 500 years of re-education is a fitting pay forward.

“Unless the Lord Builds the house ( Nation, Family, etc) they labour in vain who build it. Unless the Lord guards the city, the watchman stays awake in vain.” ( Psa. 127:1)

Almighty God’s LINEAR timetable, for humanity, that He created (Genesis) beginning, to the END-TIMES ( Revelation) is about to end!

Within His Linear period of time, we have throughout the course of history, numerous cyclical patterns of ‘rising’ and ‘falling’ in ALL civilizations, bar NONE!

We are at the END of these cyclical patterns, and His Judgment is* already been felt throughout the nations of this Evil, world system.

Repent, accept and receive The Lord Jesus Christ, as your personal Saviour and Lord, as we ain’t see nothing yet, in terms of economic hardship and suffering!

@WellWell
Yes interesting.I do agree.
Also a major force is the different ideologies Quasi Commi Quasi Capitalist.
We are actually “at war” altho at the moment it is financial “sparring”.
Money is only a tool the real wealth is Power.
Those with the power control those with the money,if we are talking of the “Commies”,in the West we are ahead ,those with the power have already appropriated the money and have their puppets manipulating events to increase their wealth.
This in itself is an anachronism,but the money provides the veneer of “respectability” instead of just killing ,to get what they need they “BUY” it.
Which of course is acceptable.After all we are “human beings” and subject to “acceptable behaviour”
Circumstances seem to indicate that there is a very big power play that includes the Russians and the Chinese,both of which are Politically controlled
.Wheras the West is “capitalist” and motivated by sheer greed(must be, if you have the power you have the money,so why want MORE money.)Well GREED and FEAR,the fear of losing the power to another power.

It would appear that the demise of the power of the USA is the ulimate ambition or if we are lucky just an Equalling of the “Status quo”.
Whatever,Currency is the weapon at the moment.
Europe and the euro are the current victims.
Russia and China both usurped the $ for large portions of their reserves, and used the Euro,thus eroding the USA $ as the world trading currency.
Now that means a lot of $ were sold and had to be bought back..
We had massive crisis in Europe,making the Euro far lower than the $,at its inception the Euro was 1.17 to the US$ and it sank to.83 cents.
America in serious trouble ,trading wise,competitivly it was a “no contest” .Europe is a massive trading block.
You agree with me and as you will have followed,what has happened up to now.We both see that there have been “instantaneous” popular uprisings all over.
The US $ has sunk and the Euro risen,reinstating partially Americas Trading position.
This defies gravity.
HOW does a currency rise when all the nations making up that currency are in Crisis and supposedly in serious financial problems.
(One of your instances of “when things dont look right) .
America “discovers ” it has huge “unknown” reserves of oil and can be “Self sufiicient”.
Freight rates for shipping containers rise sharply from China to the rest of the World ( Strange ZIM probably the biggest shipping line is Jewish owned).Freight can be as much as 50% of the cost of the landed product.
Cost on landed goods from China rise dramatically also,China experiences a drop in GROWTH.
A container from USA to the Caribean 10 days and 2kUS$ for a 20foot approx.
From China 10 weeks and double that from USA for freight.(it is farther also)But to drive your car from Bridgetown to St james is not necessarily double of that driving it to Fitz village.
So from China as a trader you may need 5 containers on the way from China whereas ONE from USA to maintain your supply chain.
It follows costs for useing China goods needs 5 times the financing.

China now has massive problems.
To maintain growth,the Government instructed that huge sums were to be lent at very low % interest to the local Goverments to promote industry and infrastructure.
Which happened and now need repaying BUT the money is NOT there to repay the debt.
China recently negotiated with Australia about its most major supplier of raw materials to do the deals in Renmimbi (China Money)
Young Son Ill becomes agressive to USA, fires rockets and promotes nuclear weapons.
China backs North Korea.
I am wondering when the shooting will start.
How does all this affect Barbados?
Look around you .making omlettes involves breaking eggs.
Power and money are inextricably linked,in any war the small guys are the losers and the only Good guys are the Winners.
We have the added disadvantage of having the American contagion.
Plus we are run by totally corrupt regimes continuously , we have nothing but ourselves and our island to look to for salvation.
We can surrvive, but we need a good shot of reality.
We are NOT the hub of the Universe,GOD is not a Bajun.
We just need to have humility.Swallow the pill and eat some humble pie ,if we are to surrvive we must become a closed economy or as close to self sufficiency as possible.
Dump Caricom. Let the Trinis pay for what they want to send here,we got very little to sell them anyway.Pick our trade partners as it suits us.
What is the trade Imbalance ?
Anybody know?
Get some Honest Governance.
There is going to be a Hollacaust,we cant “sleep” this one out .

Sorry “Money brain” there I go rambling again. 🙂

Dr. Love………….the US always knew they had a vast amounts of oil in Alaska that could last the country well over 100 years, wanting oil from other sources is tantamount to greed………………a case of holding on to mine and using up all of yours so when yours is done, i will be the only one to have any.

We also understand China’s strategy of being allowed by African leaders to move into Africa, with that countries limitless resources, China has it made.

Between Dr Love and Zoe, Bushie could as well close shop. 🙂

Just one point Dr. love, ……God may not be a Bajan, but it does not follow that a Bajan may not be God…

@Well Well.
You know when I read all this ,I ask my self JUST HOW dangerous are the AMERICANS.
I was just watching a Sat TV programe and on it was a retired “Bigup” from a major American Secret service.
I cant beleive my ears,this guy is saying America has plans that we all will have money chips inserted in us someplace and they can be/will be monitored by the appropriate authority .
The chips can be wiped clean if required ,.
Imagine Financial Excomunication like the Catholics did in the middle ages and if you were “Excomunicated ” you were dead.
“New order” I hope I dead before that comes.

David…………..Loblaws Canada has agreed to compensate the families in Bangladesh, have not heard what H & M, Walmart, Gap in the US will do yet, it’s unconscionable.

Dr. Love………………….look at the bright side, the US does not pretend to be a saint, they let the devil in themselves show at full blast.

It’s all about control…….the pay by fingerprint created by students at one of the universities in the Dakotas is now being used in England, they started last month……….control.

@WW
Your points about printing money are correct BUt the velocity of money in the actual economy is at a record low. It is entirely probable that we will first encounter Deflation before inflation. The next War ie the money War has already started with the desire of several countries to stop using the US$ for international trade in commodities.

Moneybrain……………..i heard China was trying to convince Australia and other countries to drop the US $ when it comes to commodities trading, let’s see how successful they are with that little scheme.

@Moneybrain.
Like your “sweet piece” and your “excellent advice” .We only have your word for it.
Whats “ironic” about you humping?
Ironic means ” a situation where the result is a complete reverse of what was expected”.
So really what you are saying is you didnt expect be humping but you got lucky.
She probably “just tripped over your wallet” and you took it as a “come on”.

Congratulations.
Took your mind off finance for a few moments.

Moneybrain, Moneybrain, Moneybrain … stupse

@Observer

It is a global economy, does it matter where capitalism takes root?

Dr. Love and MoneyBrain………….what are your thoughts on hyperinflation?

@WW
The gargantuan quantities of money created are not sloshing around in the real economy as many think. The velocity of money is at new lows so most of the money is sitting, propping up Bank Balance sheets. If the economy starts to grow at decent rates and the Velocity increases then serious inflation would ensue, unless the Fed is able to vacuum excess money out of the system. Could be a very slow process as many people have been worrying about the Bond market for 4 yrs+ and yet Bonds have not crashed or started a long decline. BTW we are 33yrs into the secular bull and the record is 37 yrs so we could still have time left.

BT, man, you dun say dat U expect to be God! Da is one Bajan BT, who foolishly believes such utter folly! 🙂

“Just one point Dr. love, ……God may not be a Bajan, but it does not follow that a Bajan may not be God…”

@ Zoe
Wait skippa…..you still bout here…? Everyone thought that since the last edification that you received here on BU you had gone into retreat – to reevaluate your ‘Trinity’ fairy tale nonsense, …and to try to understand why Jesus deliberately misled his audiences by using parables.

…anyway that retreat would have been a waste of time. The only thing that can help you has been labeled by you to be a “person” as opposed to the powerful spirit (the very DNA characteristics) of BBE.. 🙂

So you have a problem with Bushie’s expectation of joining the BBE clan? ….ah wonder why bozie? You may not have noticed, but throughout your bible this recruitment is proclaimed over and over….
LOL…of course you know that is one of the reasons that Jesus was crucified…. This ‘nonsense’ of him walking around claiming that he was the son of God…. Even worse, he claimed to be the FIRST BORN among MANY sons of God….whom he referred to as his brethren. …No doubt you know the many bible references better than a lowly bushman, but a few that comes to mind are:
——-
And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
——-
“The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God; and if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint heirs with Christ;
——-
For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren
——–
I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High….Psalms 82:6
———
And because we are his children, God has sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, prompting us to call out, “Abba, Father
———
Jesus himself (whom God certainly foreknew) surrendered his Godliness, became a man and provided the role model, (as firstborn or ‘begotten’ ) to be followed by many brethren….and bushmen…. 😉
His has been a role-model of humility, love, forgiveness, faith and righteousness.

Perhaps you can see it in your heart to forgive Bushie for not conforming to your church’s trinity-driven reluctance to believe the simple message that Jesus brought.
But most of all, …ah beg yuh…don’t crucify muh…Bushie can’t tek that kinda bashment (otherwise the bushman would be by Islandgal all like now so…)

@WellWell.
Hyperinflation:
At the moment as long as USA is the “prime mover” interest rates will stay at 0%approx.They dare not let them rise as that would be the last “nail” in the USA coffin,they owe too much.(Among other reasons)
Hyperinflation Yes ,but further down the line.If the financial system holds together.
Not a worry as yet.
I think more about what happens when the financial systems collapses,and the following total anarchy.
Law and order disappears and if you are bigger and stonger than Moneybrain,you just kick his door in and take what he has .:)
Inflation, Stagflation,Deflation Hyperinflation are all part of a system.
What happens when we have NO System?

“Gargantuan quantities of Money” someone mentioned.
Its all relative.
You can have one Billion notes vaued 1 $ or ONE note valued 1 Billion $’s
Then you only have ONE note “sloshing around”
Its all part of the illusion.
Why you just DUMP your old NATION when you have read it.
It has a thousand times more paper in it that a Grantley .Which you HOLD onto careful.
Implicit faith in an Illusion.
Think about it.

@Dr Loveless
“Kick down MB’s door” and take the massive risk of being blown back through that door having been transformed into a strainer! Why? MB is not materialistic, like many so called Socialist/ Commie types who really have the objective of taking control with their BS promises in order to enrich themselves ( excellent example Forbes in Guy!).

“if U are bigger and stronger than MB…” Firstly, I am in the top 1% in size so dont cry for me! Secondly, DR L that was a stupid ass comment even for U!
If U had the minimal number of brain cells U would know that size is irrelevant in a criminal world riddled with automatic weapons. I appreciate that U may only had the opportunity to digest a few Polisci Textbooks, written by academics with no commonsense or appreciation of human psychology and therefore your disadvantages in life are hardly your fault.

MoneyBrain= very heavy wallet, brains and commonsense.

@ Moneybrain
A word to the wise is sufficient….
….leave Dr Love alone.

@WW
No doubt we are in illussionary and extreme economic/ financial times which could easily lead to total collapse. Hyperinflation is the likely eventual outcome as Govts create gargantuan quantities of $$$$. I carry a Zimbabwe 100 Trillion $ Note as a reminder of what can transpire! Have not obtained the crisp Quadrillion $ Note as yet though.

Welcome back to you too Miller…..Like you had intentions of joining the Euro syndicate…affa all who could blame you…..as soon as all the pilchards and jacks up and gone from bout hay…I gine and sojourn wid Hants….gine pay my $1000 US per deim to retain citizenship doa…by den all the Froons like Carson gine be forkin eddoes…and bowin down to onions..a now Honary black expat whn I come thru d airport……whaloss !

MoneyBrain………………Isn’t that something………..wow!!

@moneybrain,
I wish I can meet a woman as sensative as you.
You must be in permanent orgasm.
Lighten up man .Get a Bigger cage ,you are “stir crazy”
PS. be carefull of your knuckles on the door step when you go in the house.
PPS Dump some of those business cards and your wallet will be very light.

I dont get upset if you disagree with me.
I cant force you to be right.

AND
Stick to your diet you soon get all that weight off.

Capitalism’s Last Gasp! ….. is all relative depending on if you were included or excluded before and after it’s last gasp and long or short on exposure and very dependent on future projections of profit whether to cry or smoke a fat cigar according to the best top notch analysts in the business
