Gloom and doom surrounds us in the political realm and people need to admit it on TV. When they assail the perpetrators of the current politico-economic situation as well, as Celente does, it's quite a luxury.
His ability to predict the future is amazing. We can feel reassured when people do so so usefully. How he does prognosticates in such detail is no less mysterious than the days when Michel de Nostredame was cooking up his smoky quatrains -- actually more so, in view of how vague the latter are!
Celente's organization (zwest@trendsresearch.com) has sent out the following. Celente is ultimately an optimist -- I believe he predicts that (as hinted below) a new wave of technical accomplishment is going to bring a huge advance in people power. This would be in line with another great prophet, Dr. Robert Clarkson, who always asserted that we have the personal computer to thank for the lack of perceived economic depression through the 1990s -- it made life a lot cheaper for many classes of people. He used to assert that legal secretaries were in danger of obsolescence because of easy boilerplating of documents on hard drive.
Nostradamus, “Occupy” This!
KINGSTON, NY, 3 November 2011 — The passage below is not from a recent New York Times or Wall Street Journal reporting on “Occupy Wall Street” – it was written in 1995 by Gerald Celente. In Celente’s best-selling book Trends 2000 (Warner Books,1997), he predicted a watershed event that lay a decade and a half in the future:
“They flooded the streets. Day and night, they marched … As the demonstrations mobilized and gained momentum, the students were joined by their uncollegiate peers – the unemployed, the underemployed, the unemployable…
No one was sure what had turned the protestors into marchers, or what had pointed them in the direction of Wall Street. All that was known for sure was that a mob of adrenaline-pumped young people funneled into the narrow streets of the Financial District …
No one was sure what had turned the protestors into marchers, or what had pointed them in the direction of Wall Street. All that was known for sure was that a mob of adrenaline-pumped young people funneled into the narrow streets of the Financial District …
In his prescient forecast of the march on Wall Street, Celente not only recognized, but analyzed what today’s editorial writers and TV pundits are currently debating.
America was not supposed to be a country where the rich grew richer and everyone else grew poorer. Finally the well-publicized income disparity between the rich and the shrinking middle class and growing underclass served as the predicted flashpoint …”
Also in 1997’s Trends 2000, Celente envisaged a new, Internet-based network he named “Technotribalism,” which was “capable of uniting and galvanizing the world electronically.”
“This time the news was posted on the StudentNet. Sympathy protests simultaneously combusted on college campuses and in cities around the nation.”
Celente’s “StudentNet” forecast would eventually surface as the social networking megatrend we now know as Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube, etc.
FAST FORWARD A DECADE
In the Summer 2010 Trends Journal, Celente forecast a 21st century variant of “Workers of the World Unite.”
“The people are fully aware of the enormous bailouts going to the ‘too big to fails’ that they are being forced to pay for. We will see social unrest growing in all nations which are facing sovereign debt crisis, the most obvious being Spain, Ireland, Portugal, Italy, Ireland, the Ukraine, Hungary, followed by the United Kingdom and the United States.”
And in the December 2010 Trends Journal, he wrote:
“The well publicized news of bank bailouts, billions in executive bonuses, and a spectrum of financial hardships heaped upon those who could least afford them – by those who could easily afford them – had the public seething … especially the young … They’re mad as hell and aren’t going to take it anymore.”
Celente has been so right, so often, about so many trends, it’s no wonder the New York Post said, “If Nostradamus were alive today, he'd have a hard time keeping up with Gerald Celente.”
But since Nostradamus is long dead and since Celente has out-predicted him in unambiguous, quatrain-free language, it’s easy to understand why so many people turn to him for insights into what in world is going to happen next.

Any of you who are or know entrepreneurs, take note and spread the word -- but keep it legal, right? (Gee, I wonder if New York mag has ever called corporate welfarites "freeloaders".)
...........You probably don't have to ask how I feel about this item:
http://www.frontporchpolitics.com/2011/10/tea-party-group-to-bachmann-quit-the-presidential-race/
Trouble in paradise...... local unit of neoconized group bolts from the herd to condemn massive neocon fraudster! Pray that la Bachmann takes them up on it, because as an Israel-firster, she is surely guilty of treason. Anybody who lives for Israel like her, Palin and most of the Presidential appointments of the past 25 years ought to just move there -- wouldn't you say?
YUMMY!!!!:

I do apologize if I seem "controversial." Must try to be more socially proper and adopt the same blind spots as the masses next time.
