The BP oil spill continues to decimate the economy of the Gulf States.  Add a potentially active hurricane season and you have a recipe for disaster.  NOAA projects an 85% probability of an above normal hurricane season.  See: http://www.cpc.noaa.gov/products/outlooks/figure1.gif  If we have one major hurricane entering the Gulf of Mexico ...

Stages to Economic Destruction

Our current economic model is faulty and will lead us into the “Stagflation Trap” Stage 1:  Negative real interest rates.  When the interest rate is adjusted for inflation, the resulting rate is negative.  For instance, the bank pays you 1% and the inflation rate is 3% then the real ...

Economic Minefield: The Final Stages toward default

Tuesday, May 18th, 2010

The Euro is in deep “doo doo”.  The U.S. unfunded liabilities and deficits cannot be paid, the math just doesn’t add up.  Peak oil is here but traders look at immediate demand to determine price.  You cannot get the truth from Economic Officials because they want to manage “perception” for ...

At the Fringe

Wednesday, May 12th, 2010

I consider this blog category of Biblical Economics as the fringe versus the “Establishment”.  The Establishment wants to be in control and maintain that status of control over its citizenry.  At the center of this control is self-interest.  On the other hand, “fringe” thinking results from Love being at the ...

In a blog on March 13th, I mentioned several stocks that I personally believe would benefit from the coming inflation.  If one took these stocks and invested approximately $1,000 in each on March 15th and sold yesterday you would have made over 10%+ in 50 days: ...

The Quiet Bailout: Bank Closures

Monday, May 3rd, 2010

I am always amazed at the cavalier attitude of regulators who are public servants.  when Penn Square Bank was closed in the 1980’s, I knew a lady who had a Certificate of Deposit (CD) in the amount of $240,000 with the bank.  The bank was seized by the FDIC on ...

Sunday, May 2nd, 2010

On April 19th, Oklahoma City honored the victims of the Murrah Bombing which occurred fifteen years ago.  This tragedy rallied the people of America and brought forth a unifying affect across the country.  Pearl Harbor and the World Trade Center disasters had the same effect.  In those cases, the country ...
