TRUMP TO BE SET UP OR KNOCKED OFF?
2015 Sep 13 from Scot Srodes
Since Trump will easily be able to blame the economic reset on 8 yrs of Obama, the more likely scenario is they try to knock Trump off. I’ve been predicting a Trump win since Brexit, and I think the establishment knows it too. Since they can never permit Trump to end their rigged game, ANYTHING is on the table.

THE POLITICAL POWER OF TERMITES
2016 Sep 13 from Jerry Day
Hi Ed,
Thank you for your comment, insight and wisdom. Of course, history is no stranger to the type of tyranny you describe, but those oppressive regimes have never prevailed in the long run, and are in fact demonized and hated in the collective memory.

[The only question] appears to be how murderous and oppressive it is possible for a government to be, and for how long, when it has no public support, inadequate funding and impossible scales of debt. Those circumstances brought Rome down, and are very likely to bring down much of our current global establishment. …

You are right, we should never fight overwhelming violence with violence, that is suicide. Fortunately, intelligent resistance usually does the job as well if not better. “Non-participation” does not just refer to off-grid preppers, it is everyone who is disgusted with leadership and who finds some way to react. Termites are not violent or forceful, but enough of them can collapse a house.

CAN THE BANK TRAIN WRECK BE AVERTED?
2016 Sep 13 from Alan Myers, CPA
Good Morning Mr. Griffin
I read your email this morning regarding Trump being set up. … I agree, a massive international banking crisis will come soon. It must. The international financial and banking world is so completely interconnected that, when one big institution fails, it will suck all the others into the vortex. Such as Deutsche Bank with all its exposure to the trillions of derivative bets it is involved in. Then there is the world’s oldest bank in Italy that is on the verge.

My comment is this. Until the moment that the RMS Titanic hit the iceberg, there was an opportunity to change course. We haven’t hit the iceberg yet, but we are steaming towards it at an ever quickening pace.

We can’t cure a disease by applying only symptomatic relief. We must go after the direct cause of the disease. In this case, it is the banking system itself. For our country it is the FED. …

Bernie Madoff is doing 150 years for running his Ponzi. It’s time someone goes to jail for running the [Fed] Ponzi. I don’t think it is too late. We can stop this train wreck. And one way or another, I want to be part of this process.

TESTIMONIALS BETTER THAN DOUBLE-BLIND STUDIES
2016 Sep 12 from Chris
Hi Ed,
Regarding your reader’s comment: POOEY ON ANTI-PAIN TESTIMONIALS? 2016 Sep 7 from Rick Casey:

All my ‘evidence’ of getting well through natural means is “anecdotal” but it beats EVERYTHING the allopathic witchdoctors have tried in their attempt at poisoning and robbing me. I go with a multitude of “anecdotal” evidence IF the testimonies are honorable. In fact, I will take honest testimony ANY DAY over “double-blind studies” b/c of the politics involved in the latter. It’s all about “the take” in “commerce”.
