The GOOD INTENTIONS may Deliver Mal-Intent Outcomes

Here is a quote from the article "Mad as hell- taxpayers lash out":

---------

And Surfta from Brooklyn, N.Y., says the government action is really not a bailout at all.

"It's NOT a bailout. The government is not handing out cash, they actually stand to make a great deal of money out of this, which will trickle down to YOU. First priority should be to try to control and fix the problem, then regulate sufficiently to make sure this NEVER happens again."

---------

The problem with this thinking that I quoted above is that America has no conscience. It would be wonderful if everyone played by the same rules. The reality is that people by nature are greedy, self-interest, I'll cheat if I cannot get caught.

I recall the Katrina incident when the US government gave away $2000.00 via an ATM card to the disaster victims. There were people who fed off the government and "FREE" loaded on the money and many received this aid that did not deserve it. Money was being stolen and no one knew where it had gone? Yup! No one knew where the money had gone...

This is the problem with "bailouts"; it may have good intentions but it may deliver mal-intent outcomes. There are many affected by this government "bailout" - I believe it can create a problem with the "I don't care mentality" which leads to civil unrest, more dishonesty in the financial markets, and the masses having the "I'll cheat the government, if they are going to have the welfare mentality for the rich" There is one thing to attempt to help the poor and needy with entitlements, but when you help the rich, the unfair advantage is disastrous to the economy mentality of the whole.

All I can say about this is, watch out for lawlessness among certain segments of society as the rise in the commodities and retail sectors begin to surface. The entire problem with this whole system is that the money is no longer backed by gold NOR is the inscription "In God We Trust" have any meaning. I cannot believe that a good name such as God would allow his name to be dishonored!

Like any honest businessman, when the risk is too high and fraud is part of the equation, the honest businessman will hold back the lending. Well, I believe that God will begin, if he hasn't done it already, to correct the right of the wrong from the misuse of the inscription "In God We Trust".

It is all well and good but a just God cannot stand to see his good name be dishonored! So, once again, the good intentions of the US government may deliever mal-intent outcomes yet to be seen on the surface but will already begin to poison the financial and social foundation of this nation we call, "America the Beautiful"!!!

Protect Your HARD EARNED Money - Buy SILVER!

My last blog post was discussing the Death of the Dollar. Now, I want to give you my own personal view on how to protect yourself from the coming collapse of the US economy.

Those who do NOT do their research will be the causalities of the coming slaughter that will divide and conquer the Rich, Middle-class, Poor, and the stubborn of heart!

Just last week we (those who paid attention to the news) witnessed one of the greatest signs of the fracture and cracks of our financial system here in the US. Bear Stearns being purchased by JP Morgan for $2 a share....WHAT! That's right $2 a share. Almost a year ago Bear Stearns was reported selling per share around $170. How could this be? How does this happen? Well, although I am not an expert economist, I have come to some conclusions why these things have occurred.

Here are some reasons for buying Silver instead of Gold!

1. 1971, President Nixon took the US off the Gold standard.
2. 1980, Gold and Silver hit an all-time high.
3. Mismanagement of the Federal Reserve - Fed rate cuts and the unconstrained printing of the US Dollar.
4. The heavily leveraged financial markets using derivatives (see this article of what could possibly happen: http://news.goldseek.com/GoldSeek/1206030368.php).
5. There are less than 1 billion ounces of Silver above ground to Gold's 5 billion ounces.
6. Silver is an industrial commodity more so now than considered as real money such as Gold.
7. Silver is more affordable than Gold where the highs currently are $1000 and Silver $21.
8. Within 5 to 10 years Silver will be well over $200 an ounce where some experts think it may reach $3000 to $4000 an ounce....Why? Silver is more rare than Gold.

Here are some resources to review aside from the link on my title from Rich Dad, Poor Dad, author Robert Kiyosaki (video).

Just as there was a frenzy in the Real Estate market between 2004 to 2005; there will come a time that the silver market will EXPLODE and it will become a bubble such as the Real Estate market where people will jump in because of greed and the possibilities of making huge profits.

When silver begins its upward trajection to $100 an ounce...people will begin to raise an eyebrow and begin to consider this mental seriously. If there is a panic in the industrial sector, silver will begin to reach huge spikes that will have those skeptics blind sighted.

Just like medical insurance or life insurance is a protection to catastrophic events; likewise, silver should be one of the things an investor should consider. For the skeptic, I you urge to purchase at least 100 ounces of Silver Eagles equivalent to about $2000.00. Hold on to this amount so you can see this grow much faster than if you had this money in the bank at less than 2% (percent) APR on a Certificate of Deposits (CDs).

Death of a Child and About Families are Forever

My wife was discussing a sad story of this woman with her daughter (I believe) who has a tumor in her head and at one time they removed it, but has since then returned and spread throughout the young child's body. My wife told me that the mother would lie next her young child to remember her as much as she can before this child dies from the tumor in her daughters head.

I asked my wife if this woman was married and she told me yes. Here is a woman, who attends church with her family to obtain solace in the midst of such a difficult trial - the lose of her daughter. She can attend her church and pray and ask God for comfort. But, what comfort can any of these churches offer her. The same result will come to her daughter, a separation from this mortal life. Would there be some information or knowledge that could help this family to bridge the knowledge that her daughter will go from this life on earth to some after life? I know the naysayers and people with skepticism may mock or even disregard my post for today, but God knows that it is written with truth and sincerity.

Of course, being a member of The Church of JESUS CHRIST of Latter-day Saints, we have the beautiful and comforting answer. I have not known of any answer that is more beautiful and most exquisite for a mother/parent who will lose her young child because of a terminal illness, but the message of the "Restoration of the Gospel of Jesus Christ". Yes, this would be the most comforting news for her to embrace, so that her life would not be filled with many questions and weighed down with deep sorrow.

Members of the LDS Church, who have studied, practiced the faith, and have made sacred ordinances, know that "Families are Forever". I believe this is the message that would give her much peace in this life and comfort and knowing that life, as a family does not have to end with the loss of life, or the end of mortality.

As Latter-day Saints, we know that if we have made covenants in the Temple of our God, keep them (which is living the teachings of Jesus Christ - Love thy neighbor as thyself), we will be resurrected one day, to live as "Families Forever". Yes, this woman who can only experience sorry presently, can have comfort to know that if she seeks the "Restored Gospel of Jesus Christ" through the teachings and doctrines found with a temple worthy and in good standing member of The Church of JESUS CHRIST of Latter-day Saints, her family can be forever, through the love, life, teaching, and sacrifice of the Only Begotten of the Father, who is Jesus the Christ.

Children who are born in this world and die before the age of eight (8), the year of accountability, before having the opportunity to be baptized in the Lord's Church, will automatically become a Celestial Being, ever to live in the presence of God the Eternal Father and Jesus Christ, who is on the right hand of the Father.

So, if I was in this situation and my child would die before the age of eight (8), I would experience the same sorry and heaviness of the heart, but I would find comfort to know for myself that my child would be "reunited" once again with me as a "Family Forever", after this life, because of the gift and power of the Atonement and the promises of the covenants that the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob has made to the children of men, which have been completely "restored" with all the rights, privileges, and authority done through Joseph Smith, the great Prophet of the final dispensation before the Second Coming of Our Lord, even Jesus Christ. Amen!

May our joy be in learning of the truth, having God tell us by the Holy Ghost, and by having faith in Jesus Christ, and NOT men, nor the doctrines and commandments and interpretation of men with only worldly scholarly study. It is good to trust people we know and love, but it is important and essential to verify our information; have our most serious questions or concerns answered by God, our Father in heaven who speaks to us by the gift and power of the Holy Ghost (reference: http://scriptures.lds.org/en/moro/10/5#5).

I know what I wrote is true, and I am thankful in the comfort of this knowledge given me by the gift and power of the Holy Ghost, my study, faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, and making and keeping covenants with my God. Now it is up to you as you soul search if what I wrote is true or if it is not?
