The Japanese government's recent actions have helped further destabilize the world economy. Japan's rapidly aging population now needs their savings to live on. Therefore, they have no choice but to print the difference. This is spreading across the world to newly developing countries. Stocks markets around the world, with the exception of the US, are in trouble. The limitations of money printing will shortly become apparent. Therefore, prices are going to go way higher and so will interest rates. Therefore, a new phase of the crisis is sure to emerge shortly. Governments need to admit once and for all that Keynesianism has outlived its usefulness.

In the strange Kafkaesque ways of federal employment, it turns out that many federal employees are more likely to die than to be terminated. While some agencies are proud of their ability to retain competent employees, it makes hard working taxpayers wonder if the inmates are running the asylum. Less than 1/2 of one percent of all federal employees are fired each year. Around 11k in a 2.1 million person work force. Unlike the private sector where 3 percent at minimum get the ax yearly. And don't worry, those NSA workers who are busy breaching your privacy have the ultimate in job security, they know where all the bodies are buried.

Constitutional Scholar Carl Jarvis is extremely alarmed about the latest disclosures of massive electronic surveillance covering virtually every person in the United States and perhaps the world. At the same time that it was being disclosed that Verizon and the other cellular carriers are transmitting all of your bililng information and call logs to Uncle Sam, another disclosure showed that numerous internet companies, such as Google, Yahoo, Facebook were feeding your information directly to the NSA. Edward Snowden, the person who made these disclosures and finally confirmed our suspicions should be applauded, not persecuted.

Greece is failing and needs another bailout. Interest rates are going up and no one knows why; they could be increasing pressure on the global economic system and may result in JP Morgan sized losses for many banks. S&P thinks the US credit outlook is peachy. What could go wrong? Besides the fact that all your data is being kept on a shelf by the NSA, ready to be used against you in a court of "law," everything is fine and you have nothing to worry about. The government has it all under control, you hope!

Anyone who's ever done a home improvement project understands the perils of dealing with contractors. You enter into an agreement in good faith and pretty soon you find out that your contractor isn't living up to your expectations. Sometimes it's because they're unethical and others it's because they're incompetent. But once you've hired them, it's too late. Therefore, the key is to avoid problems in the first place. You can't simply rely upon referrals and recommendations. You've got to do more due diligence and research. Martin explains how's all done.

Bob Hoye has been doing economic research for nearly 40 years. During this time he's uncovered a number of interesting patterns. The after-math of the credit expansion bust that we're experiencing now is following the same pattern as it always does, gold and silver purchasing power increases. Finally, intervention by the central banks cannot change the economic cycle, although it may cover-up and obscure what's happening in the present. Central banker intervention is evil and it goes hand-in-hand with authoritarian government. Eventually, the subjugated masses rise up and refuse to allow this group to govern. Perhaps we're getting to this point now.

Peter Grandich joined us today for the latest analysis of what's going on on Wall Street and the Precious Metals Markets. The manipulation continues on unabated. The job numbers, as contrived as they were, weren't really that positive. The economy needs 250,000 additional jobs per month, just to stay even. So the economy remains quite bleak and Quantitative Easy remains unabated. The world is waking up to these facts and will react shortly. When it does, the Comex will be treated as the crime scene it is.

Nick has been enjoying the increased volatility and profiting from it. If the Yen starts to strengthen, it's going to be a disaster for the stock market. It will result in a reversal of the Yen "carry trade." Stocks will go down and a sell-off will result. Gold probably made its bottom recently and Nick is bullish on the yellow metal. Nick isn't selling any physical metal and he's certainly not alone in that regard. He is however selling off some of his paper bullion. The history of fiat currency insures that physical bullion is needed to protect everyone's wealth.

Mickey's been on the road, cruising in his 1993 Lincoln Continental. And while he's been floating down the highways and bi-ways of California, the markets have been doing their thing too. In May, stocks were up, metals were down (except palladium), energy was down (including natural gas) and the dollar was up. There was also an orchestrated flash crash in silver and a whole lot more. Listen in as Mickey provides his unique market perspective.

James Goodale, attorney, was involved in the Pentagon Papers lawsuit and the press freedom battles that took place 40 years ago. He thinks that we're going through it all again. He believes that the current WhiteHouse is as bad as the Nixon WhiteHouse of yesteryear. While it's easy to debate their relative evils, there's no question that freedom of the press is under assault. If this trend isn't turned around soon, freedom is truly at risk in the United States and the rest of the world. But, if you've been listening to FSN, you know that already.

Famed Economics Professor Laurence Kotlikoff joined us for a discussion of the Housing and Economic Recoveries. It's amazing what the government can do when it sets its mind and its printing press to it. The housing recovery is as real as the artificially low interest rates that are supporting it and enabling increased sales. But if you look beyond the propaganda, you'll see an entirely different story. A nation that is adrift, that has lost its way in the world. Decreased savings, unsustainable economic policies and its leaders and populace in total denial. It won't end pretty, that's for certain.

We finally caught up with Tyler Gallagher, CEO of Regal Assets yesterday. In the past couple of months, he hasn't had a moment to spare.Seems that even though the price of precious metals has been slammed down, demand has dramatically increased. Premiums have have too, but not  Regal's famous 1 week turn around time. Tyler sees another up cycle wave taking place in the precious metals markets very shortly.. If you remember our last interview, Tyler has personally gone very heavily into the silver market, and he's not losing any sleep over it. Nor should you.

Breaking news from Bill Murphy of Gata.org. While reviewing the Comex Gold Inventory Warehouse Report, he came across a newly minted disclaimer. Basically they are telling you that the numbers are for informational purposes only and they effectively are making no warranties or representations as to their accuracy or truth. Bill's been saying this about every Comex issued report for years, from the Committment of Traders Report, to the Inventory Report to the Open Interest Report. Bills believes this sham is getting close to the end game and perhaps this latest legal step is an indication.

Economic numbers, corporate profits and government statistics are no longer worth the paper they aren't printed on. There's no real investment taking place. Rather it's all financial alchemy and chicanery. None of the numbers match reality. Employment in the US is supposedly stable, yet the workforce participation rate is headed down. Company revenue goes down, but due to share buybacks, earnings per share goes up. Lay-off a few thousand workers and profits take off to the moon. Why worry about working and building wealth when you can go flip a house. We're living in the Flip-This economy.

The Dow is up over 2,000 points since the beginning of the year. What's going on here? We've gone over 5 months without a correction, which may be cause for concern. If you're going back into the market, you'll probably want to spread your investment out over a period of time to avoid a major corrections. In addition, the market leaders will probably rotate from high dividend yielding stocks back into cyclicals. GM once again rejoined the major markets indexes which could well be an indication of this trend. Be careful!

Gregg Fettig, noted Tea Party activist, believes that the Party has become re-energized after the recent disclosure of IRS targeting of the group. Their enthusiasm level is high and there is renewed interest in their cause of smaller government and reduced taxes. Gregg doesn't believe that the scandal will lead to removal of the president, but it could impact his ability to govern and force through his radical agenda. Also, there's much more to this story to be disclosed. The scandal has legs and large numbers of supporters could start turning on the administration.

Nick Barisheff still remembers the last gold bull market. He's one of the few people on the bullion scene that's been around that long. His newly released book is intended to be a wake-up call to all those who don't currently own precious metals. He believes that the end result of all the global money printing binge will be hyperinflation. It has always worked this way throughout history. Nick has done a phenomenal job making the case that unfettered money printing will bankrupt every country in the world. There's nothing happening now to suggest a different outcome.

We caught up with Gary Gibson today. Gary feels that big changes are in the offing. While the US is the center of the collapsing empire, most people will elect to stay here. Therefore, it's important to have your priorities straight and to give up illusions of property ownership. Even if you don't have a mortgage, you're still renting. You've got to pay your taxes to the state or else they'll sell your home to the highest bidder. Real estate used for a residence is just another form of consumption. So you need plan it all out now, get ready for the big changes ahead and get ready before it's too late.

Ranting Andy Hoffman stopped by today for a discussion of the latest economic realities. The situation ain't pretty. The entire world economy is sinking into a black hole. In their effort to keep the system going just a little bit longer, the elites have ensured its destruction. Now it appears that gold and silver may have hit their cycle lows and it's up from here. Interest rates are starting to increase, which will lead to dire results for the United States and the rest of the world. The situation is starting to spiral and the newly blown real estate bubble will pop shortly.
