I think most people here would enjoy the website zerohedge.com. I wanted to give them a plug. It focuses mostly on economic matters, but presents it in a way that everyone can understand. Make sure to read the comments after the article. There are some super sharp (and funny) people visiting the website.

I visit several times a day. Its one of my favorite websites. Here's a good starter article: http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2013-03-15/orwellian-america

Just skip to the comments. They give a guy with 5-6 beers in him everything he needs to know.

Great site. Heavy ready though sometimes though. You really need to be on your game to understand some of the topics they write about.

It just makes me wonder what the government knows and isn't telling us. Over two trillion dollars for the Iraq War? Is this why my credit accounts interest was suddenly doubled? Pay the doubled rate or no more credit! I'm talking just the last six years too. I think our national resources are being squandered by the large corporations and the central government. I may start hoarding water next.

The government and their lackey's in the media are working together to keep the citizen in the dark.

One of the reasons your credit card interest went up is because your credit card company gives cards to people who don't pay the bill, they have to collect their money from someone and that someone is you.

The only smart thing I did was buy silver coins, started buying at $6 an oz and presently at $28. All the other investments besides firearms lost value...

Been reading ZeroHedge for about 6 months - great stuff
I'd like to plug another great financial - and other stuff - website that is a little easier for me to understand:
http://market-ticker.org/
This is a site by Karl Denninger - highly intelligent financial type who is able to explain topics in layman's terms.
While I'm at it - if you really want to get your blood boiling, try to keep up with Ann Barnhardt over at:
http://barnhardt.biz/
She is a no-holds-barred outspoken defender of the 1st American Republic. You may have seen her video where she burned pages of the koran after bookmarking them with raw bacon. She is an excellent public speaker and I think she may be Catholic.

For years I've been telling everyone that will listen to just buy guns and ammo. How can you lose? A) Things aren't going to get better. But even if they did, people will find themselves with more money to spend = good for you. B) Things get bad, people want more guns = good for you. C)Things get really bad, and guns are priceless = good for you. D) Guns are inflation proof = good for you. E) They invent cold fusion and we don't have to worry about shit because energy is free, and nobody needs guns (or anything) but robots will wipe your butt = good for you.

Is she the one who dared muslims to come to her house and try to pull some shit? Looks like they didn't take her up on it.

Anne Barnhardt is great - I tell people about defensible assets, a term I learned from Anne.

One and the same!
Not sure if she is still living there though, as she is refusing to pay taxes and the IRS is after her.

Interesting: She does everything she can to piss off/on terrorists, yet her own gov comes after her first. Hmm
