Hurricane Janet!
I've really been dropping the ball lately. Between business travel, moving, and starting kindergarten, the Kennedy family has been overwhelmed.
I recently returned home from Tampa where everything appeared to be fine. Despite the blue skies and sunny temperatures though, people were suddenly in a panic. That's because on Tuesday, September 5th, the citizens of Florida received information that Hurricane Irma would arrive in their state.
I knew things were different as soon as I pulled into a grocery store parking lot. It was packed, and the inside of the store revealed the same. A water shelf had been cleaned out (see above), and no one was sure of when it be replenished.
The analogy of the U.S. fiscal and monetary system to a hurricane has too many examples to count. If you ask the typical American if there's a problem with the dollar and the government's books, they'll probably tell you everything is fine. That is, of course, until someone from officialdom finally tells them otherwise.
The fact is that America has a financial hurricane bearing down on it, and far too few people have made any preparations. As I write, places like Tampa, Naples and Fort Myers seem perfectly fine. But by the end of this weekend, they will have been permanently changed.
Hurricane Janet (Yellen) is not too far of shore at this point. Even Vice Chair Stanley Fisher knows that Hurricane Janet will be slamming into U.S. shores pretty soon, and there's nothing to stop her.
Get prepared now. Don't wait for some loser from the Fed or Treasury Department to tell you there's a serious problem. Get Goldmoney, learn about cryptocurrency and start to build a life based on liberty.
In upcoming weeks, be on the lookout for interviews with Chris Casey and Chris Coney!
Until next week,
