I have been reading Gerald Celente's forcasts, The Trends Journal, for quite a long time. At first I was a bit sceptical about the events he said were coming. Not anymore. The past couple years have convinced me there is no one better at analizing current events and seeing how things will unfold.

Here is a link to a recent interview with Gerald Celente and what he see's in our future in 2009 http://www.earthfiles.com/news.php?ID=1485&category=Environment

Great article. Thanks for the link.

"There will be a revolution in this country. It’s not going to come yet, but it’s going to come down the line and we’re going to see a third party and this was the catalyst for it: the takeover of Washington, D. C., in broad daylight by Wall Street in this bloodless coup. And it will happen as conditions continue to worsen.

We’re very confident of that because as we look through history – tracking trends is a way of understanding where we are, how we got here and where we’re going. Throughout the entire 19th Century, and even into the early 20th Century, the major issue was the central banks taking over the country. That’s why you had people like Andrew Jackson. It’s been a major issue since our founding fathers and will continue to be. This is only a temporary take over.

BUT HOW DO THE VAST MAJORITY OF THE NON-WALL STREET PEOPLE GET ENOUGH LEVERAGE TO HAVE A REVOLUTION AGAINST A CORRUPT WALL STREET AND GOVERNMENT IN TERMS OF THEIR PRIORITIES?

The first thing to do is organize with tax revolts. That’s going to be the big one because people can’t afford to pay more school tax, property tax, any kind of tax. You’re going to start seeing those kinds of protests start to develop.

From that taxation issue because that’s what’s going on right now – this Wall Street bailout is really taxation without representation. It worked before; it will work again. That’s what we see as being the glue that brings this third party movement together because now it’s not a question of becoming involved because it’s a political or ideological belief. It’s in your pocketbook. It’s staring you in the face. People cannot make ends meet. What are they doing? They’re going around begging to bailout disenfranchised Wall Street executives?!?

No, you’re going to start seeing the revolution and it’s going to take the form of tax revolts."

I hope this guy is right...
