There appears to be a lot of political pressure on the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics to show improvement in the economy. Shadowstats.com reports:
Employment and Unemployment Data Were Nonsense:
The Economy Remains in Serious Trouble
April Unemployment: 7.5% (U.3), 13.9% (U.6), 23.0% (ShadowStats)
Our goal is to express the truth, not only facts that can be misinterpreted. Politicians use “plausible deniability” to be elected and reelected to office. With misleading winks and nods they continue a charade. 23% unemployment is more believable to me than 7.5%. Why? Look at how many people are on government assistance. Many of these people are discouraged workers and thus are no longer counted as unemployed in the 7.5% number. Why doesn’t our economy look like it did back in the 1930’s? Several decades of infrastructure building along with astronomical Federal & State deficits have changed the landscape but the reality remains the same. The largest economy in the world is extremely fragile. The banking system is technically insolvent. The fiat currency system has ballooned to epic proportions. In fact, Cyprus depositors in the failed bank should expect to lose 75% or more of their money. Notice that Cyprus is no longer part of the national news in other countries. The template for “bail-in” of banks has been implemented and observed by the central planners and it appears that the fallout was minimal. Who’s next?
Mankind’s idols are about ready to be toppled. The groves will be cut down in a “Gideon style” manner. The remnant is being raised up to bring forth fruit around the globe. The Census has been called to count those who are committed to bringing forth the Kingdom. This 2nd census is not only about Spiritual warfare but inheritance as well. “Blessed [are] they which are persecuted for righteousness’ sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.”
