ZOMBIES, ECONOMIC TURMOIL AND OTHER SIGNS OF THE UPCOMING APOCALYPSE

While not as vicious as the naked man eating the face of another man in Miami, there have been at least two other cases involving cannibalism this past week. Mind you, the other cases are more in line with Jeffrey Dahmer, but still what the hell is wrong with people that would make them want to eat another human being with starvation not being one of the reasons?  One was a sicko in Maryland who ate his roommate and another was a Canadian who ate an Asian gay prostitute. Yuck.

When zombies roam the earth, you know the end is near. I'm sure some of you out there are wondering whether the radiation from Fukishima has anything to do with it which I can say with some certainty no it isn't. However, if more cases like this surface, then we should start look into alternate theories. Reports of the Miami zombie say his behavior was unlike him, say people who knew him, and that he never did anything stronger than pot. Maybe he was dosed, maybe he took something he shouldn't have, maybe it was something else completely. Until we see more cases like this one, and not the serial killer type seen in the latest attacks, we needn't worry too much about this.

The state of the economy is another matter. As of this writing, the Dow is down over 200 points, the job reports sucked even with their inflated stats and unemployment ticked back up to 8.2% (in reality the number is still hovering around 23% using pre-1980's statistics), and the collapse of the Euro looks to be imminent. Spain is experiencing a full blown bank run as 50 billion Euro have been moved out of banks to ones abroad, much like what is happening in Greece. Contrary to what some say, there is no orderly exit from the Euro. If Greece leaves and stiffs the rest of Europe on money owed, what's to stop failing economies like Spain, Italy, Ireland and Portugal from doing the same? At that point the Euro goes under and, for the first time in memory, a world currency will cease to be. The damage to the economy with this cannot be underestimated, with a stock market crash all but certain in such a outcome.

Republicans must be high fiving each other with this awful economic news which helps them immensely come November. Mind you, voting for the GOP in any way guarantees things to get far worse as their plan is the exact same as Europe which is floundering hard. France has made a wise move to cap CEO pay at twenty times the lowest paid employee, a right I have been championing for years. Try that here and the GOP and the Teatards will cry socialism at the top of their lungs, nevermind the fact that such a rule is exactly the kind of thing we need to get out of the hole we've dug.

Unless the 99% get a big raise soon, the economy is doomed. We have been screwed by big business for over thirty years now with no recourse as they have all the power and we are left unionless and unrepresented in Congress. Soon, very soon I suspect, the whole house of cards is going to come down and then we will have either anarchy or a police state, perhaps both. Neither sound appealing. Stop voting for someone because they are a republican or a democrat and start voting because they are a good person with good ideas.

The conservative media has been trying to make hay over Elizabeth Warren's possible Native American heritage. I don't care. She would be good for this country and will stand up for those who can't. There are very few like her right now and we desperately need someone like her in Congress. The rest of this is just mudslinging.

With the secret Bilderberg meeting in Virginia right now, decisions about Iran, the Euro, and even Syria will be huge topics. What the Masters of the Universe decide there will affect us all. Will they use war as a way to save the economy like WW2? Will they let the Euro fail? Only time will tell, and that is a commodity we are running out of.
