Het cliché luidt: een beeld zegt meer dan 1000 woorden. Zoals in alle clichés, volksgezegden, zit er altijd wel waarheid in. Daarom hebben ze ook de tijd overleefd, weet u. Visueel dus, en snel, direct, want dat is wat de kijker, lezer vandaag ook wil. In tien minuten en liefst nog vlugger op de hoogte zijn. Kort, krachtig, en meteen te behappen. Omdat wij u altijd brengen wat u wilt (?!) een financieel-economisch overzichtje van de dag, ook over de brandende kwestie Corona natuurlijk. We doen dit aan de hand van het beste medium in deze context, Twitter. De kalender toont maandag 21 december 2020. Watskeburt?

In 2011 I interviewed Adam Fergusson, author of “When Money Dies”. His timeless wisdom in this 35 minute video is invaluable and relevant in view of the growing #inflation threat. No surprise that physical #gold is one way to help get ready.https://t.co/roXc3GZw9J

Speculation, gambling (NASDAQ, Bitcoin) in Wall Street going bananas on nothing while cash, real assets stagnate. Corporate profits exponentially down or no profits, losses, bankruptcies but financial prices exponentially up. Bubble will end up very badly and very soon. pic.twitter.com/v8i8sC7ibj

In historical terms, the agreement is not small: it’s the second-largest economic relief package in US history after $2.2tn stimulus agreed in March & exceeds the $787bn fiscal stimulus enacted by Barack Obama in early 2009 during the financial crisis.

As long as the general population is passive, apathetic, diverted to consumerism or hatred of the vulnerable, then the powerful can do as they please, and those who survive will be left to contemplate the outcome.
