Memphis Here!
I am seeing a lot of signs it much worse than any one is saying. Things are starting to dry up here.
No jobs, no money, states and cities broke, so.
What is my out?
I am in cash, house, gold but these will not be good for 10/20 year long repeat of the 1930 Great Depression.
What do I do? How do invest now?
The market is more like a casion gamble operation, where the house always wins.
What is a safe Bet?

There was no Election for Monti. This was a coup !
The bankers have taken over Italy. Monti was Federal Reserve Analyst, and Harvard grad.

With 3 mafias (Ndrangheta, Cosa Nostra et Camorra) in the Italian government, Italy economy can only collapse!
Except if the NATO would declare war to all 3 mafias, and kill all mafiosis, with real ammunition!
Then, the remaining half Italian government would inherit trillions EUR, once all italian mafiosis would be dead.
All not military methods of fighting the 3 mafia have failed, since centuries!
Declaring war is a legal final solution, for saving Italy!

Europe's financial crisis has now reached a point where many economists worry the continent's economy could collapse in weeks! if not days, unless political leaders can agree on a bailout package for economies groaning under unmanageable debt loads.
