Turning Hard Times Into Good Times

Gerald Celente and Lewis Lehrman are featured guests. Celente says we are entering a “Greater Depression.” The poor and middle class will suffer most while bankers continue to enjoy million-dollar bonuses. In the meantime, we are hearing predictions of a return to a gold monetary standard from credible folks like Lewis Lehrman who, along with Ron Paul, were the only members of President Reagan’s Gold Commission to advocate a return to a gold-backed dollar. Recently he reiterated his pro-gold standard views in a CNBC interview. Where is the American economy headed and where is America headed as a super power with or without a gold standard? Does the U.S. still possess the gold it claims to own, or has it been secretly discarded in a price manipulation scheme used to con world citizens into holding worthless paper money? How could a gold standard be implemented? Also, Gregory Isenor of Merrex Gold will update us on his company's gold exploration progress in West Africa.

Jeffrey Rogers Hummel joins our show this week to tell us the U.S. government will likely default on its Treasury debt. While most inflationists believe a virtual default resulting from hyper inflation is likely, Hummel suggests an outright U.S. failure to repay principal is likely. Third World countries can efficiently inflate their debt away, but it is highly inefficient for an advanced nation like the U.S. with its sophisticated credit and banking system. What would a U.S. Treasury default mean for the life expectancy of the U.S. dollar? What would it mean for gold? Would it lead to massive deflation or inflation or a combination of the two? As always we provide some practical investment ideas to fit our macro economic views. Helping us find some profitable safe havens for our money in this troubled world will be geologist and newsletter writer, Lawrence Roulston. A competitor of your host, Lawrence is one of the most astute analysts in the mining sector.

James Turk's patented Goldmoney now hosts some $1.8 billion worth of gold. For reasons outlined in Alan Greenspan’s 1966 article, “Gold and Economic Freedom,” bankers and their fascist colleagues in government hate gold. But ultimately market forces overcome government intervention. Turk's understanding of Austrian economics and his prior experiences as a mainstream banker provided him with a vision for a modern day gold-based monetary system. It was scoffed at when first created, but now as developing countries gain wealth and power and lose confidence in an increasingly fraudulent global paper money system, Turk’s vision of a return to a gold standard using IT is gaining viability. Go to http://goldmoney.com/?gmrefcode=jtgts for more. From her experience as a former citizen of Romania, Carmen Alexe will explain how economic policy is destroying freedom and prosperity. Adrian Fleming of Smash Minerals and Greg Romain of Gowest Gold will offer more wealth building ideas.

Existing-home sales fell 3.8%. And with so many homes on the market begging someone to buy them, new housing starts are mired at deep depression levels. The housing depression has created a catch-22 situation. With rapid declining prices in the housing market, Americans are less inclined to sell their houses in order to find jobs in growing areas, therefore unemployment stays at very high levels. Americans have used up their privilege of borrowing from their homes to take expensive trips, buy new cars and create a pool of debt. As the market has been saturated with foreclosures, banks are requiring larger down payments and enforcing stricter lending rules. David McAlvany outlines how individual households can preserve their wealth and assets while debt and inflation consume the value of the dollar and US economy. Also, executives from Crocodile Gold & Pele Mountain will be interviewed.

Doug Casey & Rick Rule not only understand how socialist/fascist policies destroy lives and usher in poverty. They have employed their understanding of global markets to turn negative policies into wealth generating for their followers. They will share some of their original insights about the debt, equity, commodity and precious metals markets with you. Rule recently sold some of his assets to Sprott Asset Management for whom he is now an adviser. Why did he do so and is that a reflection of his view on the markets? We will ask him. Best selling author Doug Casey, who has built a very successful newsletter empire, is in the process of developing a very attractive luxury resort/hideaway in Argentina’s Andes. If you want clear thinking, original ideas that contradict all the ill advice of a self-serving mainstream media, you won’t want to miss Casey & Rule. Robert McAllister of Enertopia Corp, a sponsor to this show, will also be a guest this week along with other regular guests.

Peter Grandich has been around Wall Street wars for many years. Your host knows of few people who have a better sense of which way markets are turning than Peter Grandich. So at this time when your host shares the concerns of other highly esteemed analysts like Robert Prechter, Ian McAvity, Ian Gordon, and others that we are nearing the next leg down in the secular bear market that began in 2000, we will ask Peter which way he thinks we are headed and how soon. Also we will seek Peter’s views on the direction of America from a moral and spiritual point of view and we will ask him how he thinks those conditions may affect our material well being. In the opening minutes of the show, I will be interviewing Greg Romain, the President & CEO of Gowest Gold about that company’s development and mining of its 100% owned Frankfield East gold deposit, in the prolific Timmins, Ontario gold camp.

A firestorm of controversy has erupted over Dr. Fichtner’s new book Cannabinomics that proves, beyond a shadow of a doubt, what happens behind the iron medical curtain when Americans are shown how to take ownership of this homegrown commodity and facilitate system-learning that could help solve larger global drug war problems. Marijuana use is illegal throughout many countries of the world for reasons that are not clear. This book is important because it provides a scientific critique of the medical benefits of marijuana in light of the social, political and legal hysteria that have been attached to it. Also, George Pirie, the new Pres & CEO, of San Gold will talk about the extraordinary potential of San Gold and how the company’s operations are finally coming together. Your host believes San Gold can become “The Next Gold Corp.” So you don’t want to miss Mr. Pirie.

Ian McAvity states in his May 2011 newsletter: “Global equity markets topping out, European banks about to drag US banks with them, and US housing ‘recovery’ still years away…The second half of the 2007/09 bear may be getting underway.” We will ask Ian about his double dip concerns and what he thinks that will mean for precious metals and the mining shares near term and longer term. Does Ian think the 2009 lows will be taken out? With housing prices falling in spite of massive stimulus and with all of the past debt still remaining on the books, what are the prospects for a hyper inflation? When does Ian think the 30-year bull market in the long bond will end? We will also ask Ian about a speculative junior exploration stock located in Canada's prolific gold-bearing Red Lake region as that company hunts for a high-grade underground gold deposit. Dr. Mark Cruise of Trevali Mining and Mike Hoffman of Crocodile Gold will also provide updates on the progress of their companies.

Arch Crawford returns and Vince Bugliosi joins us for the first time to discuss a question of such grave importance that it renders Dr. Robert McHugh’s vision of a cataclysmic nation changing stock market crash into a non event. Our Founding Fathers believed in God. Thus their willingness to let natural market forces operate. Now, policy “gods” increasingly dictate our every act. That begs the question. Is there or is there not a God who controls events on earth? Don’t expect an answer from legendary attorney and thinker Vince Bugliosi. His book, “Divinity of Doubt,” provides a well-reasoned case for agnosticism. Scientifically orientated but more opinionated, astrologer Arch Crawford will combine his knowledge with more traditional tools of technical analysis to tell us what he believes the heavenly constellations are telling us about the markets and other events. Most applicable for investors, Ingrid Hibbard of Pelangio will report progress on her new discovery in Ghana.

Jim Marrs, author of “The Rise of the Fourth Reich,” is our special guest. Throw out everything you think you know about history. Close the approved text books, turn off the corporate mass media, and whatever you do, don't believe anything you hear from the government. Jim Marrs will explain how the U.S. is becoming an extension of an ideology thought to have been defeated in WW II. But while the U.S. helped defeat the Germans in World War II, as John Loftus told our listeners last year, ranking Nazis came to America where they set up corporate fronts. By using their combined wealth and ideology they have, over time, turned America into the Fourth Reich. From mainstream media accounts, this is an absurd notion but once you realize the media is largely owned by the very same interests that supported the Nazis before WW II, this is not so far fetched. Once understood, it’s no mystery why rich bankers are being bailed out by a disappearing American middle class.

Prof. Robert Auerbach and commodities trader Jim Liles are our main guests. Auerbach says $1.5 trillion representing 57% of QE2, was pumped into banks that are being paid around $10 billion per year to hold as reserves. That's why, he says, the real economy has not been stimulated. And with cash flow to banks growing to $60 billion with a normalization of interest rates, there is no incentive for bankers to risk making loans. But that policy is no mystery as 2/3 of the Fed directors are elected by the banks. The Fed continues to reward bankers, rob average Americans and keep them in the dark by destroying documents that would otherwise become public. If 57% of QE2 is held by banks, most of the remaining 43% has been pumped into a commodities bubble. Where do commodity and precious metals prices go from here? We'll ask the very successful commodity trader, Jim Liles. We will also talk to the CEO of Smash Minerals, with highly prospective gold targets in the Yukon.
