KW: Casey Research is a place I source a lot of financial commentary from. Doug Casey is globally renowned for insightful commentary. That they have sent out this discussion about the growing power of the police state in the U.S. shows just how serious the issue is. You get the feeling that something is brewing that is going to affect us all. Symptoms are as follows amongst many others…. We are witnessing the explosion of crypto-currencies like Bitcoin going up thousands of %, sometimes 100,000’s%, (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-08-31/bitcoin-surges-record-high-overtakes-paypal-netflix-nears-morgan-stanleys-market-cap) as people speculate that crypto’s are a safer place than cash to invest your money,  gold is also rising in value, and ‘conventional’ markets are increasingly difficult to understand because the trading in derivatives is what drives market valuations not fundamental research and analysis. If you’re not into derivative trading your not into the market. Add to this the revolution boiling away (ignited since Trump came to the Presidency and intolerance exploded), in the U.S. as history is being re-written with liberal left extremism confronting the neo nazi far right with the destruction of monuments of famous American leaders all over the country plus the increasing risk of military confrontation on the Korean peninsula led by the U.S. , possibly being nuclear and the fear factor is being openly displayed. And that is on top of the other 7 or more countries in which the U.S. is fighting illegal wars and killing the citizens of those countries en’masse. Something is brewing for sure
