it seems all is going to plan as far as the illuminate are concerned
(all the apparent nonsense videos on you tube don't seem like nonsense anymore, apart from the ones that said buy Gold)
how long before the illuminate are rumbled and the Brits and likely most of the western world just shop less and live within their means
it won't help top line growth figures, but then again "they" can just cut more workers, wages and increase productively for the lucky few still with a job
but are they sure that a lot folks are n't just withdrawing money and hiding it under the mattress?
most know by now whats likely going to happen in the next market bust and when interest rates eventually rise...
and then rise far too much
so best to prepare now (or could leave our heads in the sand)
its also reported a 1/3 of UK households don't even have more than £250 in savings, which is quite sad, although good for the payday lenders
where did it all go wrong... ?
Seems that it is the same all over the world.
Middle class is hit and it is hit hard. If you do not own a critical amount of money you only can go downwards today. The whole system is built this way and the whole system is depending on squeezing the money out of the middle class. The only "problem" in the system as it is now is that the greed is over the critical amount too and that middle class is going to be sacrificed in order to fulfill that greed.
All that was predictable but none of the majority (middle class) did not believe it and did not do anything to avoid it. Hence the world as it is now ...

In the most dramatic evidence yet that Britons are paying for the rising cost of living by raiding savings, Yahoo UK reports that households are pulling money out of their savings accounts at the fastest rate in modern record, according to Bank of England figures. Since the recent recession began, millions of workers have suffered repeated effective pay cuts as inflation has outstripped pay rises, and while consumer spending was one of the main contributors to the sharp rise in gross domestic product in the third quarter, "consumer strength usually reflects increased borrowing but this hasn't been the key factor recently."
In the year to October, the amount of cash in time deposits and cash ISAs fell by 4.7%, while the amount families have in their instant access current accounts or in their pockets rose by 11.2%. This inflationary shift of cash is the biggest since comparable records began in the 1970s.

So the UK economy is surging and being lauded as evidence of QE's efficacy but the reality is inflation is eating away at people's wealth and hot money flows have caused the cost of living to rise dragging out the mainstay of future growth - savings - to meet consumption needs today. How long before government inflation data reflects this?
