His forecast is based on current market trends alone and he is using a very ‘small’ window in the grand scheme of things. The US economy has always had ups and downs throughout its history. This is really no different from the rest aside the fact that it’s effecting us now and we care. **There are too many way smart people in way important places to let the entire US fall to utter shit. No matter how much we may rag on the higher ups in gov’t and finance they are there for a reason. Albeit political bs or whatever, they have a plan to try to get this thing turned around.** As the old saying goes ‘Rome wasn’t built in a day’…nor will the US economy. I’m rambling now…bye If that were true we wouldn’t be in the position we are in now. I do agree with you on the first part of your post though. There will always be ups and downs and since it has been happening since the beg, then you could almost say its the “natural” cycle. It’s when someone starts changing shit drastically that you need to sit back and start wondering. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/respected-world-economist-gerald-celente-total-u-s-economic-collapse-in-9-months/243830)._
