The world has over a thousand multibillionaires. These people conspire with each other to expand free trade, increase government debts and eliminate capital from banking systems. All reforms must pass their inspection and anything curbing their astronomical accumulation of wealth is nixed whereas anything that increases it is shoved forwards. The result is an international banking collapse, a government debt crisis in nearly all first world countries and increasing violence at the bottom of society.
Very few of those living in the old paradigm of consumption, debt, and 40-hour work weeks will be able to maintain this lifestyle over the coming decade.
Nearly four years after the financial collapse of 2008 the majority of global economic indicators in America, Europe and China are suggesting that the situation has worsened, not moved into a recovery phase. What we’ve seen so far in terms of the vaporization of wealth, the destruction of jobs and the impoverishment of millions of once middle-class families is but the opening salvo in a world-wide depression that is sure to change the presumptions we have about global economic and geo-political stability.
You said it was going to be evacuated and millions would die.
But then I found out that the USSA does not do evacs.
According to the website Marine Traffic, the Holiday, flying under the American flag, departed out of Port Fourchon and arrived at a destination listed as “MC 252" (the abbreviation for the location of the Macondo Prospect) on Nov. 5 at 9:00 a.m. (see file photo below).

My guess is the cost per day of operating a fleet of nine vessels like this has to be in the seven-figure range. You have to wonder what kind of alarming subsea scenario would demand that kind of expenditure.
Here is a map of Schumaker’s flight path. You can see the Deepwater Horizon site, marked by the black square labeled DWH. The other black squares signify the vessels in the area (see link to Bonny Schumaker’s On Wings of Care website below for full report, photos and video).
About 4 million visitors came to the city last year, still down from the more than 8 million that visited pre-Katrina but significantly higher than the years immediately after the storm, according to city figures. Last year, the city scored $20 million from casino revenue, a sign that the casinos – which make up nearly half of the city’s budget – are rebounding.
It’s all relative, isn’t it? First of all, it’s barely a 50 percent comeback, and the story notes — as is fairly common with all these gambling-powered comebacks — the poorest neighborhoods have been left behind. The more powerful issue, though, is that Biloxi’s tourism used to rooted in the natural splendor of its beaches. No more. Today, Gulf Coast tourism centers on folks spending their money indoors, in smoke-filled windowless gambling emporiums. Maybe that’s because we’ve already rolled the dice on the Gulf’s environment, and it came up snake eyes.
First of all, evidence is mounting that shrimping in the Gulf — once a lynchpin of the economy — has been decimated since the BP spill. Here’s the latest:
DELCAMBRE, LA (KTRK) — Two years after the BP oil spill, shrimpers in the Gulf of Mexico say things have changed for the worse. Some say they’re hesitant to take settlement money from BP because the catch has been so bad the last two years, and they’re not sure when it will get better.
From the docks of Chalmette to the quiet waters of Delcambre in Louisiana, business is slow.
