In response to Steven Fries comments on rising gas prices, I have bad news for you all. The supply of petroleum is stable and reasonably good, and supply problems are not what is driving up the cost of gas and petroleum prices.

The world price of a barrel of oil has been pegged to the American dollar, and the dollar is being catastrophically devalued, right now. Inflation is going to go through the roof in all sectors of society, and this is going to hit everyone in their pocketbook.

Other countries (like Canada) with suddenly comparatively stronger currencies are making short term hay by buying up now cheaper US goods and products, but this will taper off as US prices rise dramatically in the next few years.

If you have all your assets paid off right now, you may be in shape to weather the spiralling inflation, especially if banks start to fail and call in loans. Otherwise there may be serious financial pain for many, including those working in our profession. The result will be the siphoning off of the wealth of the middle class in America to ever increasing living expenses, taxes, and fees, while reimbursement levels and consequently salaries remain stagnant.

There is a plan to fundamentally merge the economies, governments, and regulatory bodies of Canada, the US and Mexico under an umbrella agreement called the Security and Prosperity Partnership, or North American Free Trade Agreement. A common currency called the 'Amero' is being planned. The militaries of all three countries are already being merged under CentCom. A NAFTA superhighway system is being constructed linking Mexico with Canada.

See what your elected officials can tell you about all these activities and plans, and you might be closer to the truth about what the future holds. Good luck, and remember, we are all in this together!
