Reaching September-October


Armstrong Economics Blog/Forecasts Re-Posted Sep 14, 2021 by Martin Armstrong

QUESTION: Marty, we have reached the next target on your model from September to October. This indeed seems to be getting very dark. Any comments?

ANSWER: When we look behind the curtain, the resistance is forming. Brazil has told Pfizer they will not mandate vaccines unless Pfizer takes responsibility for all claims, which they refuse. In Britain, they had to back off of the COVID Passport. When people looked, their COVID Passport had nothing to do with getting the vaccine. Everything about you was to be recorded. The resistance was building, and the government had to back off.

Canadians threw rocks at Trudeau, and due to the lack of support, he could not even get off the bus. I have been warning the dark side of what has been behind the curtain. But I have also been warning that their window of opportunity was closing as we enter 2022. They will not succeed and indeed the resistance is building.

They are trying once again to crash the economy as they did in March 2020 but it failed. They have attempted to create a Great Depression in order to eliminate all resistance and people will then agree to surrender all their rights just to get safety. They are trying to crash the markets once more all for political purposes. Government debt is worthless and they are unable to continue borrowing endlessly. This is about ending the financial system as we have known it to create the Great Reset. As one reader commented, “Sorry to hear what they did to you, but it proves that you forced HSBC to return the money to your clients and to plead guilty criminally as they always do. Now we know you are not one of them.”

When I did the 2011 WEC in Philadelphia, I was shocked at how many people flew in from around the world. When I asked, “Why did you come?” The answer I was getting was “I wanted to see it was really you!” Apparently, people were concerned the government could just publish using my name, so they wanted to make sure it was really me. That showed how much people no longer trust the government. They are especially suspicious of the mainstream press and the wonderland of New York City.

Democrats Go Insane on Taxes NYC 61.5% is Your Tax Rate!


Armstrong Economics Blog/The Hunt for Taxes Re-Posted Sep 13, 2021 by Martin Armstrong

The Democrats are simply insane. Every study on taxation has shown that the lower the tax rates, the greater the economic growth. The Reagan tax cuts resulted in people paying more in taxes because they earned more. The new tax hiked will push NYC to 61.5%. Anyone who lives there has got to be insane to stay. The Super-Rich set up trusts, foundations, and every sort of vehicle that skirts the high taxes. The Democrats always allow those because they themselves use the same tricks. Obama had little when he entered the office and now has a multimillion beach house when he was claiming the oceans were rising.

The one thing everybody better do is call your accountant. The Democrats CANNOT be this stupid. Raising taxes of this magnitude, going after businesses, and trying to end inheritance which is what they REALLY want to do – make it all now normal income, can set in motion the worse liquidation in modern history.

This is AOC wearing a dress to celebrate the occasion of trying to destroy society. She fails to understand that it takes money to start a business and to hire people. Under their plans from reliable sources, they really want to tear the country apart. They see nothing but hatred in capitalism for everything to them is just money. If you love what you do, you will be successful in life. If it’s just a job, then that is all it will ever be.

Twenty years ago if you bought a house you could just put your kid’s names on it as well – no big deal. Today, if you try that, they have to declare it as income and pay taxes on it which is not even cash. This is the new world order. You may have to sell assets this year and buy them back for selling next year of an accumulated profit may be devastating.

Is South America Turning Anti-Marxist?


Armstrong Economics Blog/South America Re-Posted Sep 13, 2021 by Martin Armstrong

It seems like we are in a period where everyone just moves in the opposite direction of what they have been. Where Klaus Schwab says you will own nothing and be happy,  those in the former communist states of China and Russia never saw it that way. Ironically, the land that is becoming more free compared to this attempt to redesign the world in the image of Schwab’s dreams, are the very places that Marxism was embraced.

The fake news was predicting that Brazil’s September 7th Independence Day, was going to be marked by widespread violence and even a January-6-style assault on federal buildings. This was all going to be led by Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro and his followers who are against the Great Reset. There were protests throughout Brazil, but they were generally peaceful, with few to no reports of violence. The Great Reset crowd was not successful in overthrowing Bolsonaro, which by the way he has rejected Pfizer telling them he will not mandate any vaccine or even encourage them when Pfizer refuses any responsibility for any harm it causes people.

In Argentina, the youth are finally waking up and voting conservative abandoning Marxism that has burned the nation and has never worked. The youth are not crying for Argentina. They are starting to rebel against the socialistic government that has never really helped the people and has suppressed the nation that was once an economic jewel. Last year, a reader from Argentina wrote: “Our government here in Argentina has told us we should expect more poverty and there is no hope for the future. ”

What is clearly very interesting is how our computer is pointing to October and February which is showing up on so many economies around the world. It appears that the world is being confronted by this COVID issue and it is coming to important events that will impact the entire world.

San Diego Could Lose Half Their Police Force From Vaccine Mandate, 45 Percent Are a Hard NO and Willing to Be Fired


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on September 13, 2021 | Sundance | 225 Comments

A rather remarkable situation in San Diego that we could see play out in the rest of the nation.  The police union, The San Diego Police Officers Association (SDPOA), asked their members about the vaccination mandate.

65 percent of the respondents said they would consider quitting the force if the city were to impose a requirement.  However, an alarming 45 percent said they would rather be fired than comply with the mandate.

The SDPOA has 1,971 members.  According to the San Diego Union Tribune, half of those officers are not vaccinated.  If that half of the entire police department were to be fired for non-compliance with the vaccine mandate, the city of San Diego would be in a really sketchy place.  The city has a deadline for compliance on November 2nd.

SAN DIEGO  —  About 90 percent of San Diego police officers who responded to a recent survey said they oppose COVID-19 vaccine mandates, and 65 percent of them said they would consider quitting the force if the city were to impose a requirement.

About 45 percent said they would rather be fired than comply with a mandate, according to the survey, which was conducted in the past week by the San Diego Police Officers Association. (read more)

We can imagine this same type of conversation is likely taking place in several cities and counties at the same time.  The police officers union was not present for the discussions with the Biden White House.  The US Postal Workers Union was present, and they were granted an exemption from the forced vaccine requirement.

PS….  what are they doing while everyone is overwhelmed and distracted by this?

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis Vows to Fine Any Entity, Including Government Offices, $5,000 Per Incident For Vaccine Discrimination in Workplace


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on September 13, 2021 | Sundance | 194 Comments

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is putting himself in a direct confrontation with the federal government in order to protect workers in his state.

Earlier today Florida Governor Ron DeSantis repeated his threat to fine any entity, business, county, city or federal offices with a $5,000 fine -per incident- if they attempt to discriminate against unvaccinated employees, or threaten the employment status of non-vaccinated workers.

Appearing together with Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody, DeSantis stated:  “If a government agency in the state of Florida forces a vaccine as a condition to employment, that violates Florida law and you will pay”…

Another Study Shows Hospitalization Numbers of COVID Patients in U.S. are Overinflated, Not Drawing Distinction Between COVID Incidental To Admission or Treatment Thereof


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on September 13, 2021 | Sundance | 115 Comments

Interesting data on SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) being released and discussed today.  The first is the release of a study [DATA HERE] indicating that half of all recorded hospitalization cases for COVID-19 are incorrectly being interpreted.

The study of 50,000 VA patients recorded as hospitalized and testing positive for COVID-19, reflects that roughly half of the patients recorded on the dashboard were admitted to the hospital for some other, unrelated, reason and incidentally tested positive for the virus upon admission.  They arrived for treatment for something else, were tested and recorded for COVID, but the treatment was not for any COVID-19 related issue.

An earlier study in May, using the charts of hospitalized pediatric patients found roughly the same thing; 40 to 45 percent of the patients recorded as COVID hospitalizations, when in reality they were in the hospital for something unrelated to COVID.   As noted in the Atlantic “For two separate studies published in May, doctors in California read through several hundred charts of pediatric patients, one by one, to figure out why, exactly, each COVID-positive child had been admitted to the hospital. Did they need treatment for COVID, or was there some other reason for admission, like cancer treatment or a psychiatric episode, and the COVID diagnosis was merely incidental? According to the researchers, 40 to 45 percent of the hospitalizations that they examined were for patients in the latter group.”

In the VA study released today approximately half of the COVID-19 recorded hospital cases had nothing to do with COVID-19. “[T]he study suggests that roughly half of all the hospitalized patients showing up on COVID-data dashboards in 2021 may have been admitted for another reason entirely, or had only a mild presentation of disease.” (link)

Meanwhile a group of scientists and researchers have published an article in The Lancet Medical Journal today recommending that any effort to introduce “booster shots” to supplement the experimental COVID-19 mRNA gene therapy, aka “the vaccine”, be stopped because the approach by the medical system ‘writ large’ is undermining confidence in the healthcare profession. [Lancet Article Here]

The scientists write: “The effectiveness of boosting against the main variants now circulating and against even newer variants could be greater and longer lived if the booster vaccine antigen is devised to match the main circulating variants,” following the same protocol as the annual flu vaccine (which is not based on gene modification).

As you can see directly in the wording of the medical scientists and researchers the underlying message is that if the mRNA genetic modification approach is to be continued, they will need modifications of the ‘vaccine‘ to match each specific strain of the virus.  This is exactly what critics of the vaccine approach have been saying openly for quite a while; however, it is the first admission by the scientific community of that reality.

Their scientific admission proves the point….. If you take the genetic modification approach (vaccines) to create artificial antibodies; thereby destroying the natural immunity antibodies; you are creating a scenario where the genetic modification of the immune system will need to continue (more boosters) in perpetuity for every variant.

The authors of the paper worry the aggregate world population will look at their dependency on boosters as a negative outcome.  As a result those who would consider getting the vaccine, which is really artificial genetic manipulation (hence mRNA), would have one more very substantive reason not to take the first dose.

Healthy people infected with both common sense and a generally reasonable distrust of government, who are not at high risk due to age or pre-existing conditions, can see that once you get locked into this type of vaccine ride you cannot get off until the ride or variants are over.  Ergo that political framework forms the basis for scientists to request the global/medical governing bodies to downplay the need for boosters right now.  [Lancet pdf here]

American Medical Bureaucracy, Including AMA, Increase Threats Against Doctors Who Do Not Comply With Forced Vaccination Position


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on September 13, 2021 | Sundance | 505 Comments

“Nice license you’ve got there Doc, it’d be a shame if something happened to it”…

That is the overwhelming threat message coming from the regulatory boards of the American medical establishment to all doctors operating in the U.S.   The professional threats have increased in direct proportion to the tone of threat from the White House.    The threats are intended to maintain the fear narrative behind COVID-19, and push all medical healthcare providers to carry only one acceptable opinion.

Before getting to the American Medical Association (AMA) statements and guidance, let’s first look at some of the threats from the specialty fields in the system.  Look at the last paragraph of this notification letter from the American Board of Emergency Medicine (ABEM): (Source)

The ABEM specialty portal contains a link for people within the emergency room healthcare field to “report a violation” of the approved messaging.  Should an emergency room physician or healthcare provider (ie. nurse) make any statement that contradicts the governing authority, they will have their certification revoked.   Think about that.

Also, keep in mind, these are threats that only pertain to the delivery of healthcare in the United States, and the position of forced vaccination in America.  This is happening at the same time that other countries are abandoning the ‘exclusive vaccination approach‘, and are instead focusing on using their healthcare systems to keep people alive and healthy.

The U.K. appears to be following the advice of Sir Andrew Pollard, the Senior U.K. Vaccinologist in Great Britain, and will drop vaccine requirements and demands for a vaccine passport.  Pollard previously said the vaccine only approach was not working – the system needed to shift to protecting the population through therapeutics. [VIDEO HERE]  Pollard’s position is supported by the variants, and the fact that vaccinated people are now at greater risk for negative outcomes as their vaccine antibodies seem increasingly variant specific.

Denmark has also abandoned their previous closed approach which was predicated on masks, social distancing and vaccinations.  Denmark is reopening their society and shifting toward the model already taking place in Sweden.

Sweden has tackled COVID-19 through common sense, treatment and therapeutics, while focusing vaccination on those with pre-existing conditions that make them more vulnerable.  Sweden has been open and successful all year.  Their population has a healthy lifestyle, and high natural immunity.

However, the U.S. approach is exactly the opposite.   Our healthcare system is now threatening anyone who does not support the mandated vaccines.  It is creepy to the extreme.  Here’s another example:

(Source)

If the direct threats against U.S. doctors were not enough, a COVID watchdog group recently noted: “It appears that the Prep Act had been amended such that private hospitals and entities were covered in their actions taken with Covid-19  patients and relieved of all liability as long as they were prescribing ‘Covered Countermeasures’. ie. NIH approved medications. This may be why hospitals are refusing to use effective COVID treatments like vitamin D, ivermectin, hydroxychloroquine, etc” (link)

Under the HHS Notification, the PREP Act has been modified: “The amended Section VII adds that PREP Act liability protections also extend to Covered Persons for Recommended Activities that are related to any Covered Countermeasure that is:

  1. licensed, approved, cleared, or authorized by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) (or that is permitted to be used under an Investigational New Drug Application or an Investigational Device Exemption) under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic (FD&C) Act or Public Health Service (PHS) Act to treat, diagnose, cure, prevent, mitigate or limit the harm from COVID–19, or the transmission of SARS–CoV–2 or a virus mutating therefrom; (link)

The attachment of a liability or tort waiver to only cover FDA approved therapeutics is more pressure upon the doctors to stop any non approved patient treatment protocol due to coverage restrictions on their malpractice insurance.    These types of coercive pressures are evidence to support the claims of a nurse whistle-blower inside the system [VIDEO HERE]

Rounding out the latest examples of pressure to only comply with the vaccine protocol, the American Medical Association (AMA) has now produced updated guidance directly threatening all healthcare providers that do not force the vaccination into their patients.  [AMA Winter “Guidance”]

The level of propaganda is now beyond creepy: “Exemptions based on religious or philosophic grounds, or personal belief, endanger the health of the unvaccinated individual and the health of those in his or her group and the community at large.” (page 6)

The AMA, the largest medical governing body, is now taking the political position that the unvaccinated are a risk to the vaccinated?

(Full Guidance pdf)

Healthy people who have recovered from COVID-19 and carry natural immunity are being forced to have their immune system compromised by an mRNA “vaccine” (really gene therapy) that forever makes the recipient more vulnerable than they were with their own antibodies.    This makes absolutely no sense.

And all of this pressure to promote, force and mandate the gene therapy is wildly disproportionate to the threat the COVID-19 virus presents.

A significant percentage of those who originally took the vaccine shots are no longer comfortable with the new mantra that booster shots will be needed to deal with virus variants.   I consistently fall back on the single truest statement I have ever known in life: “The need for control is a reaction to fear!”

That control truism is most certainly evident amid those who have taken the vaccine.  The vaccinated crowd are severely angry with those who refuse to get in their cattle-car.   Control is a reaction to fear, and I cannot help but see the fear visible in those who have taken the vaccine.  Not all, but many of the vaccinated people need everyone in the same boat, because, God forbid, it comes out that vaccinated people have just unwittingly locked themselves into an irreversible state of perpetual health compromise.

If my healthy immune system is now a threat to your controlled and manipulated immune system – that ain’t my problem.

The need for control is a reaction to fear.  Think in terms or politics and society – the fear behind the eyes of Democrats is the fear that someone might withhold things (opportunities, money, whatever) from me, fear that if you live your life in a way I dislike, that it might affect my life.  They fear that if you get that job, there will be nothing left for them.  They fear that if you make tons of money, it’s means there’s less money out there for them.   So, people who believe in the world of leftist thought seek control as a means of trying to create guarantees and safeguards against those circumstances they fear.

Modern Democrats, leftists and Marxists, try to control the world and people to enable their comfort and happiness. Which, as we know, is an endless quest. Trying to control others does nothing in the way of making oneself happy. By extension, voting in this mindset so that government can try to control others will also – shocking – not lead to a happier, more comfortable life.

Ultimately the COVID-19 virus is not something to fear, it is something to treat.  Lose weight, get healthy, drink water, eat good foods, laugh often and keep active.

A healthy, happy, low stress life is one of the best immune systems you can build.  Not only against the threat of viruses, but also against the mindset of the perpetually aggrieved – ie. modern Democrats.
