Many within our financial community are giving fair warning, "The sky is falling, the sky is falling . . . . . . . . . . seriiously."

Ever watched or played in a sports game,  in which the weaker team just never went away; before it was all said and done,  the bottom fell out for the champions and the weaker team won the day?  Well,  there is fear that this is exactly what is happening to our economy.  If recession and fiscal disaster are the “weaker team,”  understand their continued presence --  after five years -  is becoming a serious concern.  The story,  below,  gives us fair warning of what may be in our future,  if we cannot bring commonsense into play with regard to our national finances.  In a word,  the "end" is coming sometime before Obama finishes his second term.    

 From the financial magazine,  Money Morning.com,  we have this assessment: 

A record breaking stock market is distorting a frightening reality:  The U.S. is being eaten alive by a horrific cancer that will ultimately destroy the economy and impoverish the vast majority of its citizens.

That's according to Peter Schiff, the best-selling author and CEO of Euro Pacific Capital, who delivered his harsh warning to investors in a recent interview on Fox Business.

"I think we are heading for a worse economic crisis than we had in 2007," Schiff said.  "You're going to have a collapse in the dollar...a huge spike in interest rates... and our whole economy, which is built on the foundation of cheap money, is going to topple when you pull the rug out from under it."

Schiff says that, despite "phony" signs of an economic recovery, the cancer destroying America stems from a lethal concoction of our $16 trillion federal debt and the Fed's never ending money printing.

Currently, Bernanke and company is buying $1 trillion of Treasury and mortgage bonds a year. That's about $85 billion per month against a budget deficit that is about the same level.

According to Schiff, these numbers are unsustainable. And the Fed has no credible "exit strategy."

Eventually interest rates will rise... and when they do, Schiff says, stocks will tank and bonds dip to nothing. Massive new tax hikes will be imposed and programs and entitlements will be cut to the bone.
