International marine science organization releases report on radiation in Pacific Ocean

NaturalNews) If you've heard about Fukushima radiation spreading to the Pacific Coast of North America but were "corrected" by sources both official and expert that this was based more on rumor than reality, then consider the information presented at the October 2013 North Pacific Marine Science Organization (PICES) annual meeting.

Researchers from Fisheries and Oceans Canada confirmed that the radioactive plume from Fukushima is indeed reaching the shores of Canada and the United States - and was detected at least six months ago - carried both in the ocean surface water and the atmosphere on similar but slightly different courses.

In a presentation titled "Communicating the forecasts, uncertainty and consequences of ecosystem change," (read here: http://www.pices.int
) the Canadian researchers gave evidence that the bulk of radioactivity from Fukushima is shifting almost entirely from the western portion of the North Pacific (Japan) to the eastern portion (North America) over the course of the next five years. As of 2012, it had already reached the central region of the Pacific Ocean, and a previously unpublished map shows that, as of 2013, it had reached the shores of Alaska and British Columbia, with the most intense area of the plume yet to arrive.

The Fall 2013 discussion centered around competing calculations of the severity of effects from cesium-137, based around two differing models of the radiation's trajectory. The first, published by German researcher Erik Behrens and his colleagues at the Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research in 2012, drastically understates the potential dangers, predicting only modest levels of 2 becquerels per cubic meter (Bq/m^3) by 2015 for the 49th parallel near British Columbia and Washington state - scarcely above the background levels from the continued fallout of Chernobyl.

Meanwhile, the second, published by Vincent Rossi and other colleagues from the Climate Change Research Centre in

EPA News Misleads Readers

Associated Press caught 'restructuring' old EPA news to mislead readers; mainstream media blindly plays along

(NaturalNews) Four days ago, the Associated Press reported that coal-fired power plants are dumping enormous quantities of pollutants into U.S. waterways. According to the Associated Press, the EPA says that coal-fired power plants are dumping nearly 2 million pounds of aluminum, 79,000 pounds of arsenic, 64,000 pounds of lead and even 2,820 pound of mercury each year into U.S. waterways.

Iran's Islamic pipeline a mad man's dream
By Mansour Kashfi

The Islamic Republic of Iran, after encountering frequent disqualification in its efforts to be a reliable partner in the international arena, specifically in oil, gas and pipeline transactions, is now entering a fresh game in delivering natural gas to Europe, in spite of the heavy sanctions imposed by the United Nations, United States, and European Union.

Only this time around it is trying to team up with the Islamic Arab states, bypassing its old trade partner Turkey. However, the ultimate goal still is the same - delivering Iranian natural gas via pipeline to Europe, a dream that has frequent failing records.

A memorandum of understanding was signed between the Iran and Turkey in July 2007 to transfer Iranian and Turkmen gas to Europe via Turkey. At that time the Iranian minister of petroleum, Qolamhosein Nozari, told reporters that "deliberations would be held in the coming weeks on management of the South Pars natural gas region and transportation of Iranian gas to Europe via Turkey."

According to the accord, Turkey would have

Iran urges Pakistan to build its own section of gas pipeline

Iranian Oil Minister Bijan Namdar Zanganeh asked Pakistan on Sunday to build its own section of natural gas pipeline.

"Big volume of gas is (ready for delivery) near the Pakistan border," Zanganeh was quoted as saying by SHANA website affiliated to Iran's Oil Ministry.

Pakistan should build its own section of the pipeline, he said, adding that "In case Pakistan takes action to construct the pipeline on its soil, the project will be completed" and Iran's gas will flow into the neighboring country.

On Oct. 30, Zanganeh said Iran was not hopeful about exporting its natural gas to the neighboring state of Pakistan "because the conditions set by the Pakistani government has made export of Iranian gas to Pakistan unlikely."

By his remarks, the Iranian oil minister was alluding to the earlier reports which said that Iran's southeastern neighbor had asked the Islamic republic to finance on the gas pipeline to be built on Pakistan soil.

The local reports said Pakistan had asked Iran for financing of 2 billion U.S. dollars to construct 780-km gas pipeline on its soil.

On Thursday, Pakistan Minister for Petroleum and Natural Resources, Shahid Khaqan Abbasi, said READ THE REST



Myanmar pipeline to diversify China energy supply

China has started receiving natural gas from Myanmar through an 800 km-long pipeline project. The opening of the pipeline on Sunday was hailed by State media here as a landmark step towards diversifying China’s energy supply routes.

The gas pipeline, which can transport 12 billion cubic metres annually, runs from Kyaukpyu to Ruili in southwestern Yunnan province, which borders Myanmar. China is also building an oil pipeline that will bring 22 million tons annually to Yunnan when completed.

Strategic map

The official Xinhua news agency said the opening of the gas pipeline had “substantially changed the strategic map of China’s energy supply channels” by alleviating what officials have described as the “Malacca dilemma” of being dependant (sic) on an energy route through the narrow straits.

“At present, as many as 80 per cent of China’s oil imports depend on the supply line going through the Malacca and Singapore straits, while the maritime route is patrolled by fleets headed by the U.S. navy,” the Xinhua commentary said.

Six companies, including India’s GAIL and firms from South Korea and Myanmar, were involved in the construction of the pipeline.

A Ban On Owning Farm Animals? Michigan Is Considering It


Keeping even one “farm animal” in residential neighborhoods could soon be illegal in Michigan. That’s because a proposed change to state regulations could strip property owners of the right to keep and raise small numbers of poultry or livestock.

Michigan’s Right to Farm Act currently extends to all property owners in the state, including those in areas zoned residential or commercial. The state Agricultural Commission is considering a change to the regulations – called Generally Acceptable Agricultural And Management Practices (GAAMPS) — that would strip property owners of that right.

“It would exclude a whole bunch of people who are seeking Right to Farm protection,” Randy Buchler of the Michigan Small Farm Council said of the proposal, “and strip the small farmers of their right to be protected by a state law.”

Did you know about this bank drill???????
Sent: 2/7/2014 10:11 AM



Either the new Federal Reserve Chairman Janet Yellen is a prepper, or there is something afoot in the world of banking. If she is a prepper, I missed any indication of that in her background. Bankers typically talk in terms of contingency plans and liquidation programs, not prepping for disasters.

In January of this year, Supervisory Regulation (SR) 14-01 was issued in regarding the need for bank preparedness particularly for the eight bank holding companies (BHCs) in the United States. According to the memo, there are eight Bank Holding Companies that appear to be at risk and that risk threatens the financial stability of the United States. These eight companies are Bank of America Corporation, Bank of New York Mellon Corporation, PLC, Citigroup Inc., Goldman Sachs Group, Inc., JPMorgan Chase & Co., Morgan Stanley, State Street Corporation, and Wells Fargo & Company.

The memo, dated January 24, was the first one of the year. It was sent from Michael Gibson to the top banks to stress increased supervisory expectations. Gibson stated,

“… the Federal Reserve is issuing this letter to clarify the heightened supervisory expectations for recovery and resolution preparedness for the eight domestic bank holding companies that may pose elevated risk to U.S. financial stability. “


Shortly after the “increased supervision” of the big eight, customers at other “not eight” banks started getting notices of bank drills where services will be limited. One example is READ THE REST

Excuse me? It isn’t safe? Bush-Bernanke-Bimblette all lied? No way? From the article:

Terry Burnham, former Harvard economics professor, author of “Mean Genes” and “Mean provocative poster on this page and long-time critic of the Federal Reserve, argues that the Fed’s efforts to strengthen America’s banks have perversely weakened them. (See our 2005 segment with Burnham below about how “lizard brains” influence our economic decisions.)

In one of the most shocking State of the Union Addresses in recent memory, President Obama announced he will create a new kind of retirement account – the MyRA – which uses your retirement savings to buy U.S. Treasures and pay for U.S. debt.  Obama’s announcement follows a number of startling events which demonstrate how desperate the government is becoming:  with nowhere else to turn, the government is making a last-ditch effort to seize personal savings & retirement to fund the nation’s insurmountable debt.  And there’s only ONE thing you can do to stop it from happening.

The Government Needs A New Source for Funds

The U.S. debt, not including unfunded liabilities, is over $17 trillion dollars.  And the U.S. Treasury estimates our debt to go over $28 trillion by 2018!  In order to finance this debt, the Federal Reserve has been buying 90% of the U.S. Treasury market through money-printing stimulus, to the tune of $80 BILLION per month for the last several years.  And we all know that the Fed has begun tapering its stimulus program because they can no longer afford to fund the national debt.

So if the Fed is going insolvent, who do you think the government will lean on to pick up the slack?  The answer is YOU.  10,000 Baby Boomers will turn 65 years-old every day until 2030.  And while the government has a debt problem of $17 trillion, not so coincidentally, our country's IRAs, 401Ks and other retirement accounts amount to right around $19 Trillion.  What a convenient resource for the Federal Government!


So the federal government is licking its chops staring at READ THE REST

Since early 2009, the Fed’s QE programs have dumped over $4 trillion into toxic assets and U.S. Treasuries in a desperate attempt to bail out the banking industry.  The Fed’s extreme actions have only served to pump up banking reserves by $2.2 trillion and increase the money supply in circulation by a jaw-dropping $400 billion!  So, where has all this money gone?  The answer:  since the exact moment the Fed began its QE programs, the DOW exploded by a staggering 9,000 points!  So now that the Fed has begun tapering its QE programs, what does this mean for the DOW and other paper markets that have been artificially inflated by the Fed?  Many experts now predict a 7,000-point collapse in the DOW by the time the Fed finishes tapering.  That’s why the smart money is flocking away from the stock market and into the ONE asset that protects savings & retirement when the paper markets collapse.

The Stock Market Before Fed Stimulus

After the collapse of the stock market in 2008, the Fed and the U.S. government were desperate to bail out the banking industry.  No bankers went to jail, nor did the powers-that-be change how the banks do business in order to prevent this disaster from ever happening again.  Instead, the Fed concocted a master plan to READ THE REST



For the last 600 years, there have been six different global reserve currencies controlled by world superpowers.  The latest – the U.S. dollar – has dominated world currency for over 80 years.  The alarming fact is, global reserve currencies have collapsed every 80-90 years for the last six centuries!  What does this mean for America and the dominance of the U.S. dollar?  Based on recent evidence and long-standing historical trends, experts predict the imminent collapse of the U.S. dollar!  What’s more alarming?  Many Americans aren’t yet doing the one thing that will save their savings & retirement from U.S. dollar collapse.

In the absence of the gold standard, there is no way to protect savings from confiscation through inflation. There is no safe store of value [with paper currency].

The Crisis Generation

600 years of human history has shown that the average lifespan of a global reserve currency is equal to a “saeculum” – or “human lifetime” – of about 80-90 years, broken down into four 20-year generations.  The best-selling book, “The Fourth Turning,” goes through history and demonstrates this 4-phase evolution:

1)     First generation: High This is an era when institutions are strong and society is confident about where it wants to go.  America’s most recent First Turning was the post-World War II American High, beginning in 1946 and ending with the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.

2)     Second generation:  Awakening This is an era when institutions are attacked in the name of personal and spiritual autonomy. People suddenly tire of social discipline and want to recapture a sense of personal authenticity. America’s most recent Awakening was the “Consciousness Revolution,” which spanned from the campus and inner-city revolts of the mid-1960s to the reelection of Ronald Reagan.

3)     Third generation:  Unraveling This is an era when institutions are weak and distrusted, while individualism is strong and flourishing. America’s most recent Unraveling was the Long Boom and Culture War, beginning in the mid-1980s and ending in the late 2000s.

4)     Fourth generation: Crisis This is an era in which institutional life is destroyed and rebuilt in response to a perceived threat to the nation’s survival.  America’s most recent Fourth Turning began with the stock market crash of 1929 and climaxed with the end of World War II.

America is now in this fourth “crisis” phase, about 80-90 years from the beginning of the first phase.  It is in this “fourth turning” crisis that institutional life will be torn down and rebuilt from the ground up.  This rebuilding is READ THE REST

This Syrian War is a Pipeline Dance among the Global Elites!!!!!!!
Sent: 9/10/2013 1:51 PM

Russia wants to be the Supplier to Europe but Needs the energy from the Middle East regions that they are Associated with to make this happen:


Pipeline Politics; Is Putin Running Out of Gas?

The Cold War is now so over that it might as well be grouped with the ancient ice ages, but there is one echo rolling across Europe from East to West: the Russian attempt to dominate the natural gas market on the European continent. As the energy sector accounts for 25 percent of Russia's economy, any large changes in energy markets present major challenges for Vladimir Putin. Those old enough to recall the Soviet gas pipeline controversy of the early 1980s a high-profile fight of the Reagan administration to deprive Moscow of hard currency are right to have a feeling of déjà vu, as Putin's motives transcend honest commerce.

Despite huge gas reserves waiting to be tapped, most of Europe lags the United States in the shale gas boom for several reasons: a lack of mineral rights on private land, bureaucratic obstacles, the usual intransigent opposition from Europe's potent green lobby, and, perhaps most important, the lack of adequate pipelines to connect new gas fields to the market. Hence, natural gas prices in Europe are several times higher than U.S. prices. Since natural gas and oil are Russia's principal export commodities, the prospect of newly abundant oil and cheaper gas outside of Russia is a grave threat to Russia's economic and political might in the region. Russia can't do much about global oil trends, but Putin and the state-controlled Gazprom are doing everything they can to throttle new gas development in Eastern Europe, rerunning the same kind of behind-the-scenes propaganda against shale gas that the KGB ran against new NATO missiles back in the Cold War. Propagandists in Russia are promoting every translation possible for the message fracking=bad. The second prong of Putin's strategy is to control pipeline development as far as possible. But things are not going well for him.

Gazprom is the linchpin of Putin's political and economic strength. The state-controlled natural gas conglomerate is a huge source of revenues for the Russian budget, but also a slush fund for Putin's clan the corrupt network of power-political and economic relationships that rules Russia today. Immediately after coming to power in 2000, Putin moved to put the company under his direct control. In short order, he made his protégé and current prime minister, Dmitry Medvedev, chairman of Gazprom's board and appointed another protégé, Alexey Miller, as CEO. According to a book by two prominent former Russian politicians, 11 of the 18 executive positions in Gazprom were quickly filled with Putin cronies. He then moved to make the company a national champion, giving it an exclusive license for the export of the country's gigantic gas wealth. It is widely believed that Putin makes all of the key Gazprom decisions himself.


Putin's energy cronyism is vertically integrated, as he ensures that infrastructure projects such as pipeline construction go to his friends' firms at lucrative prices. Gazprom pipelines typically cost two to three times more than those built by Western companies, despite the much lower wages paid to Russian labor. While the German portion of the Nord Stream pipeline, for instance, cost $2.8 million per kilometer, the Russian portion built by one of Putin's handpicked companies cost $6.5 million/km. This is one reason Putin likes pipelines, even if he can't guarantee they will be fully utilized.

Sitting on 18 percent of the world's current proven gas reserves (a percentage that shrinks with each new discovery elsewhere), Gazprom became one of the largest companies in the world. At the 2008 peak of the bubble in oil prices, to which Russian gas prices were indexed, Gazprom's hubris overflowed. With a market valuation of $365 billion at the time, Alexey Miller confidently predicted that his company would become the largest in the world, with a market cap of up to $1 trillion by 2015, and that it would dominate the huge Chinese market as well as 10 percent of the American market with shipments of liquefied natural gas (LNG). Gazprom's optimists thought it could command 30 percent of the world market.


Two other threats to Gazprom's fortunes must also be mentioned. For years Gazprom and Kremlin propaganda have done their level best to scare the Europeans away from shale gas exploration. Alternatively dismissing it as a Hollywood invention or conjuring up an ecological apocalypse, the Kremlin seemingly believed that it can wish this threat away, despite evidence of the massive impact of the shale gas revolution in America. Early on, things seemed to go their way, with France and Bulgaria imposing a moratorium on shale gas exploration. No longer. With Great Britain now allowing fracking and Germany's government submitting a draft law to do the same, the genie is out of the bottle. It's only a matter of time before European countries begin exploiting their domestic shale gas fields, posing yet another challenge to the Russian monopolist.

Vladimir Putin may have dreamed of becoming the J.R. Ewing of Europe, but his recent moves are more in the mold of the hapless Cliff Barnes. His signature initiative at the moment is the proposed South Stream pipeline, which would run under the Black Sea and through Bulgaria to points west. Putin was hoping Gazprom could retain monopoly control of the pipeline, but because it runs through European Union territory, it is subject to the EU's market regulations (known as the Third Energy Package ), which require that all pipelines be available for use by competing suppliers and overseen by an independent EU regulator. These conditions are unacceptable to Putin and make it unlikely that South Stream will be built.


That strategy envisaged South Stream as achieving two key political objectives. In bypassing Ukraine, heretofore the key transit country for Russian gas to Europe, it would provide the Kremlin with a powerful weapon for continued economic and political blackmail of Kiev. And, just as important, it would preempt the realization of the competing Nabucco pipeline project, designed to bring non-Russian gas from the Middle East and Central Asia into Europe. The Nabucco pipeline will run to Europe either by way of Greece and Albania into southern Italy, or through Bulgaria, Romania, and Hungary to a hub at Baumgarten, Austria. A decision on the final route is expected in June. The defeat of South Stream holds dire implications for Russia's standing as the indispensable gas supplier to Europe and for the political fortunes of Putin. [Bold Emphasis Blog Editor – It is my impression Tony Newbill is drawing attention to the fact that the control of the proposed Nabucco Pipeline from Syria by Putin would make up for his ongoing apparent natural gas designs gone awry.]


Putin's grand scheme of strong-arming Ukraine, Poland, and others and making Europe ever more dependent on Russian gas has not only failed but seriously endangers the gas monopoly's very existence. Well-known experts such as Mikhail Korchemkin, head of East European Gas Analysis, believe that Gazprom has only a few years before bankruptcy. With Russia's future oil exports looking soft the Russian Academy of Sciences' Energy Research Institute in early April forecast that oil exports could drop by 20 percent over the next 30 years weakness in gas exports will deliver a double-whammy to Putin's power base. The financial flop of the Soviet gas pipeline in the 1980s contributed significantly to the eventual collapse of the evil empire a few years later; the prospective collapse of Putin's energy strategy may similarly hasten the demise of his evil empire lite.

The Competition to this is described here in this link:


It's not about the chemical weapons, it's about the Syrian pipeline (Photos)

Obama is going after Syria to secure gas pipelines for Sunni Muslims.

America’s quest to bomb Syria is not about chemical weapons being used against the Syrians. Chemical weapons are basically a smoke screen, and Obama desperately wants to remove Assad from power for other reasons.

The players in this continuing world drama are Turkey, the United States, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Iran and Russia. There is a good reason why Turkey and Saudi Arabia both have their backs against the wall and are desperate to take out Assad.


Two years ago, Syria announced it found a promising gas field in its country, and Oil Minister Sufian Allawai said “The first wells were drilled at Qara in Homs governorate, and the flow rate is 400,000 cubic meters per day.” This is great news for Syria’s energy revenues. Besides the prospect of its own gas field, Syria is also one of the most strategic locations for natural gas pipelines to flow to Europe.

Qatar, home to the world’s largest gas field along with Iran, has proposed a gas pipeline from the Gulf to Turkey that would traverse Syria to the Mediterranean, with the gas then being shipped to Europe. Assad in 2009 refused to go along with the Qatar plan, instead inking deals with Russia and Iran.

Called the Islamic pipeline, it is set to open in 2016; in fact, Iran, Iraq and Syria signed deals in 2011 to construct the 3,480 mile natural gas pipeline that runs from Iran’s South Pars to Europe. This Iran-Iraq-Syria pipeline is set to be the largest gas pipeline in the Middle East. It will snake through Iran, Iraq, Syria, South Lebanon and through the Mediterranean; in addition, the best refinery and infrastructure is in Damascus. Further talks between Iran, Syria, and Iraq for construction of the Islamic Pipeline kicked off in Baghdad today.

The Islamic pipeline through Syria could cut energy power of Qatar and Turkey. To make matters worse, most Arabs view the Islamic Pipeline as a Shi’ite pipeline serving Shi’ite interests. After all, it originates in Shi’ite Iran, passes through Shi’ite Iraq, and flows into Shi’ite controlled Syria. Therefore, the Sunni-dominated Gulf nations have both an economic and to a lesser extent, a religious reason, for stopping the Islamic Pipeline from becoming a reality. So far, the Gulf nations have violently opposed Syria’s adoption of the Islamic Pipeline by arming opposition fighters within Syria in order to destabilize the nation.

This is certainly one reason why President Obama helped run weapons from Benghazi, Libya, through Turkey into the hands of the Syrian rebels. Al Qaeda strongly opposes the Assad government and has joined other rebel factions in an effort to overthrow Assad and to install a more Sunni-friendly government.

Russia has built up naval presence in the ports of Latakia and Tartus to protect the pipeline.

Warren Buffet and Bank of America as well as all the Big Banks have this helping them profit.... It’s the greatest group of insiders ever in the history of the world!!!!!  This will take you right to page 144 and show you the insider information …….


Here is how they are controlling inflation…. and it shows how the insider's club is not helping the debt investment market that feeds a consumer supply-side demand. So this means the market is overpriced.


The Federal Reserve Is Paying Banks NOT To Lend 1.8 Trillion Dollars To The American People

Did you know that U.S. banks have more than 1.8 trillion dollars parked at the Federal Reserve and that the Fed is actually paying them not to lend that money to us?  We were always told that the goal of quantitative easing was to "help the economy", but the truth is that the vast majority of the money that the Fed has created through quantitative easing has not even gotten into the system.  Instead, most of it is sitting at the Fed slowly earning interest for the bankers.  Back in October 2008, just as the last financial crisis was starting, Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke announced that the Federal Reserve would start paying interest on the reserves that banks keep at the Fed.  This caused an absolute explosion in the size of these reserves.  Back in 2008, U.S. banks had less than 2 billion dollars of excess reserves parked at the Fed.  Today, they have more than 1.8 trillion.  In less than five years, the pile of excess reserves has gotten nearly 1,000 times larger.  This is utter insanity, and it will have very serious consequences down the road.

Posted below is a chart that shows the explosive growth of these excess reserves in recent years...

This explains why all of the crazy money printing that the Fed has been doing has not caused tremendous inflation yet.  Most of the money has not even gotten into the economy.  The Fed has been paying banks not to lend it out.

But now that big pile of money is sitting out there, and at some point it is going to come pouring in to the U.S. economy.  When that happens, we could very well see an absolutely massive tsunami of inflation.

Wall Street Week Ahead: Fed may taper without causing market tantrum

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Months of anticipation will come to an end next week when the Federal Reserve finally says whether it will start to rein in its massive stimulus of the economy, which has flooded financial markets with some $2.75 trillion over the past five years, supercharging returns on everything from stocks to junk bonds.

But for all the concerns that the reduced presence of such a giant asset buyer would be calamitous for investors, it appears equity and bond markets are poised to take next week's Fed decision largely in stride - provided the central bank doesn't surprise with the size of its move or shock in some other way.

The Fed has telegraphed its intentions to (READ THE REST - Wall Street Week Ahead: Fed may taper without causing market tantrum; By Ryan Vlastelica; Yahoo Finance; 9/13/13 5:50 PM EDT)

Big Government Rationed Economic System

Obamacare is a Result of this Trend because they have not the will to try and continue to allow the free market economic concept to feed demand because of Peak Earth Ideology!!!!!!

This 15 year chart shows why the Governments around the world are setting up the free market consumer driven international economy to become a Big Government rationed economic system.

The rate of this inflation is an unsustainable signal that demand is out pacing any kind of supply-side growth potential in the key areas of resource production and development that sustains life growing at the rate it has been.

This is why we see a dysfunctional Government not willing to up hold the values of the Constitution in their entirety.

This is a 15 Year chart of key resource price inflation and interest rates


                                                      1998           2013         % Change
Dow Jones Industrial Ave.     7,908        14,840         4.29%/year
Federal Funds Rate                 5.50%        -.25%           -100%
Prime Rate                                 8.5%             3.25%        -62%
10-Year Treasury Bills            5.54%          2.73%         -49%
Gold (lb.)                                    $290             $1,470        +11.43%/year
Copper (lb.)                               66¢               $3.23          +11.17%/year
Oil (barrel)                                 $8.74            $101            +17.72%/year
Lean Hogs (cwt.)                     $38               $96                 6.37%/year
Live Cattle (cwt.)                     $58                $128              5.42%/year
Land (per acre)                       $1,801           $8,296          10.72%/year
Corn (bu.)                                 $1.99             $7.27             9.02%/year
Soybeans (bu.)                       $5.85             $15.36           6.65%/year
Wheat (bu.)                              $3.17              $7.52            5.93%/year  

This will end in nation Isolating from the International free market Scheme because as these supply demand struggles increase without any future growth expanding the supply and population continuing to expand incomes in the free market will not be able to manage the continued inflation in the key vital resource categories and nations will have to respond to their society outcry with intervention in free market profitability.
