With millions of Americans underwater and losing their homes, jobs becoming scarce and consumption on the decline, a new American Dream is evolving. People are downsizing, they want smaller homes, a simpler life and to effectively construct their own bailout. The hangover from the boom years is ending and now people need to find new goals. They are pursuing a simpler life that will perhaps be more fulfilling. It's all about quality of life, which money often cannot buy.

Ranting Andy Hoffman and I connected for our usual Monday discussion. The Fed has adopted a new term for their eventual withdrawal from Quantitative Easing--Tapering. It means absolutely nothing. There's no specifics for when and if they're going to reduce bond purchases and so far they haven't done it yet. Harvey Organ rightly brings up the question, with evey central bank in the world buying back its own debt, who besides the Fed is going to buy US debt? The only one left to buy US debt is the Fed, so they can speak of tapering all they like, but when push comes to shove, they can't possibly do it. And we talked about the real inflation rate, which is best illustrated by the accompanying chart.

Dr. Douglas Johnston has vast experience in defense, diplomacy and how religion fits into the puzzle. Without a historical perspective, it's impossible to understand what is going on now in the world. Rather than a cohesive religious and political force, Islam is a fragmented force that the United States has frequently misunderstood, much to its detriment. Dr. Johnston believes that we also have a major US eductional failing in that few people understand the historic underpinnings of Islam the current issues that confront America.

If you've noticed that food just doesn't taste as good as it used to, you're not alone. Much of the food grown today doesn't contain the required nutrients that it used to. In addition, lack of trace minerals is a potential health hazard waiting to happen. Therefore, we need to apply pressure to the supermarkets to increase their purchases of nutrionally dense produce. They will respond to consumer demand and provide us with healthy foods. It's not a question of organic or locally grown. Therefore, we need to look at the actual minerals in the plant that finds it way on to your table.

Wenonah Hauter grew up on a farm. She experienced the economics of food and says that our current system has been corrupted by big AgriBiz. Her solution is rest on education and ending corporate control of the government. This means ending their ability to make campaign contributions. While she doesn't agree with Mayor Michael Nanny Bloomberg's efforts to regulate portion sizes, she feels that the government has to do something to help people eat healthier. Ending farm subsidies to corporations will go a long way.

Nick Santiago of www.InTheMoneyStocks.com joined us a for a precious metals market review. Looks like the metals are heading lower once again, but Nick sees another buying opportunity ahead. The economy is no better off than it has been over the past 5 years. Government economic policy has become even more injurious and the debt problem isn't being addressed at any level. This means that in the long run, gold and silver will be increasing. Just look at the latest Chinese imports and ask yourself what they know that you don't?

In 2007 Darryl Schoon wrote a book Time of the Vulture: How to Survive the Crisis and Prosper in the Process where he detailed the coming crash and what actions were necessary for you to come through unscathed. Now we know he was uncannily correct. Darryl believes, and I concur, that we are currently going through a planet-wide spiritual transformation. While it's normal to fear the unknown, these changes that will affect human conscious are breathtaking in scope and will leave no man, woman or child untouched. Anything that furthers human consciousness is for the better, but the transition can be extremely volatile and will end the status quo.

Janet is actually living the life that she helps to others to attain.

Ed D'Agostino and Joe Yasinski run a precious metals trading platform that provides buyers with multiple competitive precious metals dealers who bid for their business. They are heavily involved the markets and like so many others have witnessed a worldwide run on physical gold and silver. The disconnect between paper precious metals and physical continues to widen. They're quite adamant that supplies on many products have tightened and that premiums have soared during the recent slam down. In addition, the flow of gold to China is staggering and worthy of note. Over 1,000 tons have found their way to China in 2013 to date! Their opinions are quite illuminating.

Since the beginning of the year, the stock market has been on fire. Much of it is liquidity driven, leading to mal-investment on a grand scale. The MLP (Master Limited Partnership) sector has large dividend distributions and and good cash flow, so yield driven investors have flocked to it. More companies will be converting to this type of ownership, so you need to be very quality conscious. In comparioson, the mining sector isn't looking so well, with precious metals prices falling below the costs of production. Other factors are at work and caution is the by-word.

Blaine Stimac runs a network of physical therapy clinics in Montana. He's concerned about the impending Obamacare implementation. He sees majr problems ahead. Increased demand for service, lack of clear direction, increased red tape and major cost overruns to name just a few. All things considered, there's plenty of trouble ahead and no doubt the act will be repealed or dramatically altered. 

Jamie Wolf had a problem. Her corporate career ended and she had a daughter with chronic health problems. This led her to start a business helping similarly situated parents deal with their children's special needs. Now Jamie helps people start their lives over as entrepreneurs. She believes that starting your own business doesn't need to be risky, but you've got to get the necessary skills to make it all work. First and foremost, you need to make sure that there's a market for your product or service.  This especially applies to returning GI's that the administration would like to turn into small businessmen. 

Jeff Kass was one of the first reporters on the scene of the Columbine mass shooting. What he saw there set him on a journey in an effort to understand how something like this could occur. While he doesn't claim to totally understand the incident, he did discover that there were definite warning signs that were largely ignored by the school administrators and law enforcement. Perhaps today those signs would be taken seriously and an effort would be made to prevent another tragedy. We can only hope. 

Bix Weir was back talking about the machinations behind the world's rigged markets. Every day the paper price of gold and silver becomes less and less relevant. Soon the only thing that will matter is how much physical you've got in your pocket or in safekeeping. The market prices that you see plastered all over your tv screen and your computer monitor exist simply to make people believe that objective economic law and reality don't exist. Which means that you cannot afford to be fooled by the algorithms. Physical metal equals truth!

According to Jim Willie we're suffering from treachery, which means deep criminality lodged and laced within the USGovt financial ministry it means the embodiment of the Fascist Business Model tied into the entire system it means big bank crimes continue with impunity and protectionbond fraud, rigged markets, naked gold shorts, flash crashes, narco money laundering criminal element behind the entire housing & mortgage bubble & bustEast organizing, developing platforms, building new support systems, designing protocol East ready to displace and isolate the USDollar system, the ticket to devaluation and 3WEast reacts to predatory banker actions and hegemony, with war to support the system. So you need to have a plan.

The economy is horrible and getting more horrible by the day. The Fed said they'll keep buying $85 billion in bonds per month unless they need to buy more or if they need to buy less. The odds are that they'll be buying more not less, you can be sure. Bernanke keeps spewing Fed gobbledygook and no one seems to notice. However, the break between the paper and physical precious metals markets continues to widen, so someone, somewhere gets it. But certainly no one in a policy making position in the Western World could care less. So keep stacking!

Aaron Clarey a/k/a Captain Capitalism believes that things are bad and they're getting worse.

In other words, you need to learn how to be happy whether your country is prospering or going down the economic drain. Aaron has a number of strategies to help you achieve this goal. First is the art of minimalism, which means learning to expend as little of your resources as possible. Don't buy a home, don't incur debt and live as freely as you can. Keep your possessions to an absolute minimum as well. His book is well worth the read!

We got taken on the Nanny Bloomberg Pizza scandal. Forgive us, but we can't be faulted for believing a story where the Nanny behaved exactly as we've come to expect. Nonetheless, even with little more than 6 months to go, Bloomberg hasn't missed an opportunity to force his twisted view of middle class life upon New Yorkers. The City is joining the ranks of other bike-share municipalities, businesses and the citizenry be damned. You can always count upon him to do the wrong thing.

The mother of all government screw-ups is coming your way. Medical coverage will be reduced and the costs you pay are going to rapidly escalate. The "Death Panels" are coming and who knows what treatment they're going to allow you to receive. What happens to restaurant chains who can't afford to cover their employees, will their prices double? The affect on part time employees is even worse. More and more people will be involuntarily converted into part-timers to reduce employer insurance costs. Doctors will no longer be able to afford to be in business for themselves and they will become hospital employees. Just be prepared and understand what's about to occur.
