Potential Future Hyperinflation
Potential Future Hyperinflation
Walter “John” Williams thinks out of the box. He makes disquieting reading, but you won’t find him in the mainstream. At least not often. He runs a “Shadow Government Statistics” site with an electronic by-subscription newsletter. Anyone can access some of his data and occasional special reports. They can also assess his reasoning. In his judgment, government data are manipulated, corrupted and unreliable. He’s not alone thinking that.

Spiegel: How speculators are causing the cost of living to skyrocket
In late 2003, they invested only $13 billion (€8.4 billion) in the food commodities business. By March 2008, that number had jumped to $260 billion (€168 billion), an increase of 1,900 percent.
How much of it is in our own heads?
Our view of the world and its future is highly influented by our personal experience.
reddit.com: Energy, food and economic fears looming, new survivalists prepare for the worst
Here’s an interesting anecdote for you. I used to follow a conspiracy site that had a survivalist bent, and for awhile gave serious consideration to the author’s views. (I still read the blog because the author collects interesting news, though I no longer agree with his extreme interpretations.) I remember reading the comments to one post, where three of the comments in a short thread, authored by separate readers, made reference to a significant other (spouse or similar) who had struggled or was struggling with cancer; the article itself had little or nothing to do with cancer. It hit home because that was the exact same situation I was going through. It made me realize that my attraction to the doom-and-gloom had much more to do with my own personal catastrophe than with any looming end-of-the-world.

Secrecy is good. Particularly if you are a banker
Bank bail-outs to be kept secret | This is Money
And what, may I humbly ask, is so special about banks that they are to benefit from this immense generosity. They neither feed us nor water us: they neither clothe us nor house us: they neither educate us nor entertain us: they neither keep us in health nor cure us when we are ill. They are totally parasitic and should be left to die a natural death. They are the authors of their own misfortune and do not deserve our sympathy. The Government is doing the country a disservice by pandering to them.- Alan, Amersham
Hoarding deepens food shortages
Food Rationing Confronts Breadbasket of the World - April 21, 2008 - The New York Sun
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. — Many parts of America, long considered the breadbasket of the world, are now confronting a once unthinkable phenomenon: food rationing. Major retailers in New York, in areas of New England, and on the West Coast are limiting purchases of flour, rice, and cooking oil as demand outstrips supply. There are also anecdotal reports that some consumers are hoarding grain stocks.
Alternative energy: the next economic boom?
Solar Power From Africa: The Best Investment the EU Can Make | SolveClimate.com
Its architects claim they can build a supergrid of concentrating solar thermal plants (CSP) that can meet most of Europe’s current electricity needs by using just 0.3 percent of the deserts of the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) – and at a cost less than oil.The long-term prospects look even sunnier.
For an investment of $400 billion over 30 years, Desertec could eventually power Europe plus two-thirds of the MENA countries by 2050, while dramatically cutting C02 emissions and phasing out nuclear power at the same time.
That’s a sizeable chunk of the whole world’s energy needs. And for only $13 billion per year.
What a bargain, if you consider that building a single nuclear power plant in Europe carries a price tag of around $2.5 to $3.5 billion these days.
