So, 2010. What can we expect? My 2 cents...

Back a bit earlier than thought, folks, so here we are, looking 2010 in the face. The only thing we can be sure of is that it will NOT be dull. Are there any clues as to what we might expect? "Doom and gloom?" That depends on how you react to the situation. Far better to have a clue of reality than drift along unconscious and unaware. "Truth" is anything but absolute, though some circumstantial patterns seem quite clear in their implications. What you believe you alone must decide. These are my subjective impressions of coming events, based on all the information I've been able to access and understand. Your opinion may be very different. I, of course, could be totally wrong. Time will tell the tale.

The economy is going to continue to wreak havoc on the average persons life. All this flak about "improving" economic indicators is nonsense, folks. The stock market is a big phony, artificially propped up by massive government intervention and handouts to the largest, "too big to fail" banksters, who've gotten outrageous "bonuses" at your expense. The government has effectively nationalized a number of industries, like the auto manufacturers, and continues merrily printing fiat money at an unprecedented pace. True unemployment is at 22%, according to John Williams at ShadowStats. Believe him. It will NOT get better any time soon. The Federal deficit is over $14 trillion, and there's no sign that's slowing down, quite the contrary. The massive second wave of adjustable rate mortgage resets is starting- ALL of the banks face failure. The FDIC, armed with $52 billion and the "full faith and credit of the United States Government" is "insuring" over $12 trillion dollars of customer bank accounts. How do you think that might work out? The dollar may be dropped as the world's "reserve currency," replaced by the Chinese yuan. A hyperinflationary depression looms on the horizon. Under enormous public pressure the administration may begin real investigations, and prosecutions, of the Wall Street thieves.

Look for national crime rates to sky rocket, as desperate people do what they must to survive. Civil unrest will probably break out in certain urban areas this year, expect it to be crushed violently, further inflaming the situation. The over 800 "FEMA Camps" nationwide may begin filling up as the government rounds up suspected "terrorists" and dissidents. Another false flag "terrorist" attack cannot be ruled out. The H1N1 "swine flu" pandemic may be the precursor of something far more ominous.

The wars will continue. Afghanistan is a powder keg, waiting to explode, and it will. Don't think for a second we're through with Iraq, either. Yemen, Somalia and other countries may see active US intervention. N. Korea will continue with their silly "nuclear" policies, trying to blackmail the West into granting it the aid it desperately needs. A world-wide crop failure of soybeans threatens famine in many areas, with accompanying social unrest and possible governmental change.

On the positive side, science and medicine will continue to make breakthroughs, offering new cures and amazing discoveries. The arts and literature will continue offering us new entertainment and insights. Under pressure, we may form closer bonds with others, making our communities stronger. Humanity seems to produce it's finest results while under duress; 2010 will certainly give us that, and perhaps a lot more. Let's hope for the best, while preparing for the worst. Like the Chinese blessing/curse says, these will certainly be "interesting" times.
