Why were millions of people concerned about their future after watching the movie 2012? Could dramatic events in 2010 lead to a future shown in the movie? Many people never planned to fail but they failed to plan. There are five key "social problems," caused by the U.S. economy, that could cause a dramatic change to our civilization. Here are the problems facing us and how they may impact your life.
Unemployment
	WASHINGTON (Reuters) - For the first time in history, more than  40 million Americans received Food Stamps, which help poor people buy groceries, at a cost of $58 billion for fiscal year 2010. Enrollment has set a record each month since reaching 31.78 million in December 2008. USDA estimates an average enrollment of 43.3 million people for fiscal 2011. A sign of the longest and deepest recessions since the Great Depression. Enrollment jumped by 4.707 million during 2009 to reach a record 36.5 million people. That's one in eight Americans! In the latest data, the average person received $140 in August, 2010. China and Japan, the second and third largest economies in the world can expect to see unemployment rates rise as American demand for goods, drops. The Greek unemployment rate has hit a five year high of 10.6 Percent and the Dubai debt crisis has caused thousands of unpaid foreign workers to flee the country or face prison for not paying their bills.
Local Bank Failures
	The private real estate bailout is over and now a new crisis looms in Commercial real estate! The cracks in the foundation of the commercial real estate market are simply too deep for anyone to prevent a total  disaster. A lethal combination of soaring vacancies, declining  property values and an inability to refinance commercial properties place owners and banks in deep, deep trouble Vacancies are up - expected by year's end to reach 13.5% for retail and 17% for office buildings - cutting potential income that commercial properties need to make their mortgage payments. " The country's 10 biggest banks have $327.6 billion in commercial mortgages, which face a wave of defaults as office vacancies grow and retailers and casinos go bankrupt." Regulators shut down Ravenswood Bank in Chicago making it the 109th US bank failure this year. The number of bank failures is expected to peak this year and be slightly higher than the 140 that fell in 2009, which cost the insurance fund more than $30 billion. That was the highest annual tally since 1992, at the height of the savings and loan crisis. - AP, 8/06/10 With roughly $530 billion in commercial mortgages coming due for refinancing in 2010-2011, some estimates showing that as many as 68% of loans maturing during that time will FAIL TO QUALIFY for refinancing.
The Money Market
	Fed Looks to Spur Growth by Buying Government Debt - Treasury Department is preparing to auction $16 billion in new 30-year bonds this month at the lowest yield since March 2009, when 30-year bonds sold at 3.64% Reuters 8/10/2010 In fact, the government has exhausted nearly every trick they know just to push the Dow back toward 10,000 in search of a solution for an imminent market collapse that could have a devastating effect on the U.S. economy. Furthermore, the dollar is collapsing at ever increasing rates of decline.  What that means to you is ever higher prices on everything you buy. The government has exhausted all means of raising more money to pay its debts. The Federal Reserve is now in the process of paying all government debt by simply creating trillions of dollars un-backed by bonds or any other form of credit. As all this phony money filters into commerce, inflation and possibly hyperinflation could occur. Once started down that road, the dollar would increase its rate of decline compared to other currencies. Interest rates will become so high it would shut down the debt based commerce. That's why most multi-millionaires are investing in Gold, LEAPs and Foreign Commodities. It's the American IRA and 401K retirement funds that has helped prop up the market. The market will become unsustainable as more people lose there jobs. The forward estimates of the U.S. Government’s borrowing needs are expected to fall but those estimates are largely predicated on record low short-term interest rates. In fact, it is nearing the crossover point where it starts to accelerate as interest rates rise. One good example of how things can go terribly wrong is Zimbabwe. What decision did the government make that got the Zimbabwean economy, rolling off that cliff? The U.S. Dollars Index (DXY) has dropped 10 weeks in a row from a high over $80 in July to under $77 in September. There is one thing for sure. Today, if you are not well informed, here is what you can do to your money... Good Bye
Energy Costs
	In an effort to raise more money, the U.S. Government is passing new laws called "Cap and Trade." At first look, this Green program focuses on controlling CO2 emissions by setting a limit on how much carbon dioxide a business can emit into the atmosphere before they get charged higher taxes. The Trade part of the new laws allow high volume CO2 emitters to purchase unused credits from businesses that emit less CO2 then there are allowed. In theory, this will force the largest of the CO2 polluters to either pay higher taxes or build large non-polluting businesses, like wind farms, where they can borrow credits from. In reality, businesses like electric, oil, trucking, steel and paper mills will simply raise their prices to offset the new taxes. It's the consumer of goods and services who will be paying the tax bill, not the businesses because they are either monopolies or all share the same costs. For example, the trucking and paper mill companies can't afford to spend millions of dollars to reduce emissions and the electric, oil and steel companies are free to charge what ever they want. The bottom line is, everyone will be paying more for products and services because of these new taxes, while no noticeable reduction in carbon dioxide emissions will be realized. Electric bills in the U.S. have risen almost 7% this year over last year due to new taxes. Many Electric Generation Rate Caps have expired with nearly all expiring by 2011.
It's Your Neighborhood
	Sales of existing homes dropped to a record 27 percent according to figures released this week by the National Association of Realtors. (Source: Bloomberg) That's only 3.83 million homes sold in the U.S. this July, the lowest in a decade of record keeping. Look around your neighborhood and see how many "For Sale" signs you see. With so many homes for sale, prices will continue to drop causing Families to loose thousands of dollars of equity and forcing them to rent rather than buy, IF their home sells. Are You Prepared for a declining Neighborhood? Banks and ATMs were forced to close denying you access to your money? Grocery store shelves suddenly go empty? There's a gasoline shortage and your car is out of gas? Armed mobs roamed neighborhoods looking for anything of value? You can not get needed medications?

Why are THESE Publications SO unique? These reports were not created by any U.S. Government agency or News Media organization and here is why: The U.S. Government and News Media are run by Lawyers. Lawyers are Arbitrators, Mediators and Law Makers. Arbitrators solve disputes between organizations and people. Mediators bring parties in a dispute closer together toward agreement. Apparently their Motto is: If it's not broken then let's fix it. When you Google visionary lawyer, you may not find any references claiming a practicing lawyer to be a visionary, free sprite or free thinker. They live for the fight. Therefore it would seem unlikely that The American Government is either. It has developed into a fair and easy-to-get-along-with system that respects the rights of it's citizens. A system that has taken years of trial and error to develop. Our reports are created by people with an engineering and security background. Unlike Lawyers, Engineers are trained to see potential problems before they happen. They are willing to shut something down before it breaks and service it, even if it's inconvenient. A Lawyer would never respond to a situation by yelling "Just Deal with it!" because they want to fix it. (see above) I'm sure it must be difficult to be in-charge of something, when your only source of inspiration is history and your only thought is "I've never heard of THAT HAPPENING BEFORE!" You can be assured that we take these situations seriously but sometimes a little satire can make pointing out the problem a little more palatably. Example
