Before anybody in America ever cared about AIG, credit markets or bailouts, Karl Denninger had warned that the fuse was burning and had “gone inside the box.” This was in September of 2008, about a month before the bottom fell out of global markets and the giant kaboom was heard ’round the world. He had repeatedly sounded the alarm. A “credit event” was coming, and it couldn’t be stopped. No one listened.

The aftermath of the credit detonation that followed will go down in history as one of the most severe economic crises since the Great Depression.

Now, nearly 5 years on, we’re right back to where we started. In fact, we’re much worse off than ever before and in all likelihood we’re going to experience an event so severe it’ll make the Great Depression look like a picnic.

The time is fast approaching when the US government, the Federal Reserve and private banking conglomerates lose control of the entire system. When that occurs, confidence by the public, as well as our foreign creditors, will be lost.

And according to Karl Denninger, the math says it’s going to happen within two years time.

Employers are cutting full-time employees back to part-time to avoid the requirement of providing health insurance under Obama Care.  Trader Karl Denninger says, “As the Obama Administration runs against the economic reality of what they passed, they are now trying to find ways to dodge it. . . .The Obama Administration’s reaction to this has been to unilaterally, and by the way illegally, put off the imposition of mandate.”  

This is not going to save the teetering economy as Denninger contends, “Bernanke has lost control of the bond market and, in general, his policy. . . . The reality is the Fed is not in charge, and when that confidence level breaks, you are going to see all hell break loose.”

Denninger goes on to predict, We are setting up for a collapse that is going to be worse than 1929, and it’s going to come sometime within the next two years.  It could come as soon as the next couple of months, but it is going to happen, and there’s nothing that is going to stop it.

Karl Denninger with Greg Hunter’s USA Watchdog

Join Greg Hunter as he goes One-on-One with Karl Denninger of Market-Ticker.org:

Denninger and many others who had warned us what was coming were right on target with their forecasts. They’re warning us again.

We can bury our heads in the sand.

We can hope for change.

We can pretend that the people in Washington and Wall Street have our best interests at heart.

None of it will help. The math is clear. The system is broken.

The pain is coming.

You’d better be getting prepared for it, because the end game is 100% guaranteed.

It is a very good interview and Denninger makes some excellent points. That being said, there was one shortcoming in his reasoning that came close to the end of the interview wherein he stated that the Fed has been increasing the credit/money supply by 6 1/2% annually, yet GDP has only been increasing by 2%, meaning that the economy is in fact declining by 4 1/2%. While there is nothing wrong with his math, there is a problem with the underlying assumption that all of the newly created credit/money is remaining within the borders of America. Clearly, that is not the case. The greenback has been going up in value because foreigners have been purchasing it, seeing it as a safe haven. To have a clearer picture of how the economy is actually faring, that unknown number must be plugged into the equation. Though i cannot prove it, my assumption would be that roughly half of all the new credit/money creation winds up in the hands of foreigners, meaning the economy is contracting by some 1.25% annually. That number would seem to be a far better fit for the reality on the ground.

vox, damn good point. Your number might be a bit fuzzy, but it surely exists.

And because these dollars are made out of fairy dust but carry a debt to be paid with them, last moment demand from overseas for tangibles could carry an additional economic threat as these re-enter the country.

Again, wow!

It is always a bit of an ego boost when someone else confirms that the government is in the protection business. You will buy this insurance that is offered or else. The so-called public/private partnership is just subcontracting the protection racket.

Great point about the debt growing by 6% a year, but GDP by less than 2%. As KD pointed out, that 4% is going somewhere or things are falling apart far more than is easily observable. Bridges fail because the deterioration isn't readily observable. Statistics are just opinion. Math is math. 6 + x = 2 || x = -4 Now folks, this is cumulative; year after year for what? 5 years now. If that missing 4% was going somewhere, it would be reflected in tax revenues, lowered debt, GDP, something. So obviously it is a 4% contraction per year. Remember that cumulative thingy? That also means a 4%+ reduction in the tax revenue stream. The plus is due to tax bracketing: falling income means a lower tax bracket.

If this downhill slide lasts until 1 January, will Congress charge Obama for treason by not enforcing the ACPPA. Inquiring minds want to know. I'm betting "No". Congress will not change horses in mid-stream.

Thanks Greg and Karl.
