If there is NO Rapture in 2012..... we're in for a horribly bumpy economic ride in 2013 and 2014.
 
WHY....you ask?
 
First:
NOTHING has been fixed in the US or Europe financially.  ALL the same problems from last year and the year before.....are STILL out there.....waiting to be resolved..IF that is even possible. (And I don't think it is possible!) 
 
Second:
As the article indicates.......markets and economies go in cycles...and every 4-6 years, a DOWN TURN hits us....and that time is near.
 
Third: 
Markets and economies tend to "hold up" in an election year.....and cause problems in the 1st and 2nd year AFTER the Elections.
 
Fourth:
In Europe......NO ONE wants to be the FIRST to take LESS from their Governement, than they are currently ENTITLED to. (ie, Greece.....and soon, Spain, Italy....etc.)  thus, the new elections brought Socialists into leadership in France, Greece.
 
So, as for me...... I'm tired of dealing with all of this.... (lol...)  And....I just want this
 
WAITING FOR THE RAPTURE....TO BE OVER!!  Im' READY TO GO!!
 
TICK TOCK,
Let's hope..
YFIC,

PS:  Quote from a Founding Father of the United States....
(from memory)
"the Republic will be fine....until the people realize they get EVERYTHING they WANT if they elect the right people....who will give it to them."
 
Here is the whole quote:
A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship. The average age of the world's greatest civilizations has been 200 years.”
Alexis de Tocqueville
 
OUCH........ Hmmmmmmm....... I believe the people have finally figured that out.  In the United States, in Greece.....and watch for more countries in Europe to fight back against all the austerity requirements now being ofrced upon them!! 
 
In the United States.....Bill Clinton / Obama / Democrats.....all of them believe the Government MUST continue to spend more money....even if they don't have it....in order keep this economy from a bigger crash. 
 
the 2 sides of the camp are:
 
1)  Democrats - SPEND AND allow BIGGER deficits....and bigger government...and raise taxes (which is certainly needed......but not without getting a handle on the spending side)
and
2) Republicans - Lower Spending.....(at all costs) and smaller governement......but they must look at raising taxes, too......probably.....
 
Two different philosophies about how to solve the current Government Debt Crisis...... and they both CANNOT be right.
 
My Favorite Bumper Sticker:
 
I'M SPENDING MY CHILDREN'S INHERITANCE"    This is meant for the retirees, about their OWN children..
 
But.....
 
THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT THE UNITED STATES IS DOING....AND EVERYONE KNOWS IT.
 
YOU CAN'T KEEP "BETTING ON THE COME"  AND HOPE THAT one day.....the economiy of the United States.......or of Europe....will sufficiently recover that you can 1) stop the flow of red ink and 2) pay back the debts of the country...and...what faith do any of have that the leadership of the congress of the United States would do the RIGHT THING AT THAT TIME, and use the money to actually pay off debt, instead of spend that added revenue!!
 
We are so LOST.......  TICK TOCK...
 
Without the Rapture...this year, or some year soon..... I see NO solution to the National Debt Problems...NONE!!
