  • I smell a war brewing to kick start our economy again....sad!

  • Off the record the interviewer is HOT!

  • corporate capitalism and the federal reserve are crap. We will not have anything approaching civil society until we have the demise of america as we know it. We need to imagine a society that works for everyone and create the ground rules for a just and peaceful nation.

  • NO REALLY WHO FARTED!!!! In the first few seconds of this video something sounds funny!

  • Letting banks collapse and go out of business would not cause tough times for a couple of years. It'd cause problems for a whole generation. Like it or not, President Obama stopped the US from going into a depression.

  • @dgrhm08

    The government didn't interfere with the depression of 1920 (not 1929), and we were out of it in a year. It was caused by the inflationary period of WW1 due to the Federal Reserve, and the bust that inevitably came.

    The only thing Obama-Bush has saved us from is a healthy economy. The same thing happened with the Great Depression: inflationary period in the mid 20's, bust in 1929; the government stepped in to "save" us, it made the Depression "Great" and long lasting.

  • @dgrhm08 That is what they tell you. When these bailouts happen the equivalent of job losses happens to the rest of the private sector. So people get punished instead of the corporations who were messing up. The fact that those Economists who say we were saved from a "Great Depression" by simply bailing out the banks is absurd. A "Great Depression" would be a result of decades of a faulty economy. Even if bailouts worked the notion that we would be saved simply from that is insane.

  • @dgrhm08 essentially, those Economists who claimed we were on the verge of a "great depression", should eat their own words. Admitting we were that close and claiming that a catastrophic domino effect would occur if they did not bailout the banks, I see as propaganda. It may have temporarily sustained our economy, but at what cost? I think the great recession is still there just waiting for out politicians to stop delaying and worsening it.

  • ron paul for honesty!

  • Comment removed

  • Ron Paul 2012

  • Guys, Unions or no unions has nothing to do with our problem. The Government is out of control, spending way too much money on everything like a bunch of incompetent addicts. Democrats and Republicans are both spending us off a cliff. We "borrow" 40% of every dollar the government spends. Any moron knows that system can't last for long but we have a bunch of so called leaders who actually believe we need to borrow MORE to SPEND even MORE! Absolute Insanity.

  • The get rid of the commie unions

  • It's nice to hear someone who knows what he is talking about for a change.

  • Is this the guy that's writting the great republican, hord the money, cover-up lie?

  • American weakness comes from the early 80's. As soon as people forgot why they needed unions in this country. Every last person should be in a union.

    What this guy forgets is - the rich have had record tax cuts - they have made record profits and they have made a record low amounts of jobs. = FAILURE!! So they need to shut up and sit down.

  • Sounds like Right wing propaganda

  • @mantonio121773 Jim Rogers started out as a Liberal Democrat. His purpose in making his first millions was to fund Democrat causes. He woke up as he realized we were on a road to destruction. He is politically neutral.

  • The best bet for America is an insanely large leveraging by the Fed against the Euro. The Fed could take advantage of low interest rates, borrow 5 trillion dollars and short sell European bonds or similar actions, and then use the political power of Obama to worsen the European crisis. The deficit is not going to be decreased anywhere in the near future because even if Ron Paul were elected, he couldn't get anything done. The Fed, one of the worst financial institutions ever, is our only hope.

  • @Thatmakessense356 The best bet is to end the fed, issue a government currency, prosecute the perpetrators of the massive fraud, then kill them in the town square on national television.

  • @Thatmakessense356 Yet the fed got us into this mess.  They were the ones who printed the trillions for all those bailouts out of thin air; making everyone's money worth so much less. The fed is the problem.

  • @jcrowley1985 The fed is the problem, but we're screwed. There is no way our society will handle the massive austerity that must happen, and we will probably need to default.

  • @jcrowley1985 Agreed. If the U.S. government can print and sell it's own government bonds, then it can also print its own currency. Until there's real monetary reform, the debts will continue to increase, so will inflation.

  • what a nice lady!!!!!

  • Theirs one point, that's key, that's never mentioned; JAPAN ISN'T A SOVEREIGN COUNTRY! Japan is a neo-colonial outpost to the American Empire. point being economically Japan is the 51st state. ALL the economic resources of Japan BELONG TO THE AMERICAN RULING CLASS. Japan's "democratic government" is a COLONIAL ADMINISTRATOR for America.

  • My opinion:

    1.Let incompetent companies fail= will make better companies

    2.Invest more and more efficiently on education = people will know if they can pay a mortage Lol...will be better professionals

    3.Rise taxes on rich people= it will close the gap between rich and poor people

  • More disaster piling upon more disaster - exactly Mr. Rogers. The crooks in WA have merged with Corp Banks which by definition is FASCISM!

  • On every video on the economy there's some dumb bitch talking nonsense. Why can't she shut up and let JIm Rogers speak.

  • @DarklingX yeah, right :))

  • it's all part of the plan. i don' t believe for a minute that our so called leaders are this stupid. there has to be an agenda behind this systematic destruction of America. time will tell...

  • Dr David Duke predicted this long before rogerswhen he wrote My Awakening

  • Follow Jim to buy commodities and real assets

  • My God, this video was made 3 years. Now all Jim said became a reality

  • Now 14 trillions Jim. You are right.

  • @shanesekiller actually,"now" 16 trillion, but when you wrote this, yes.

  • jim rogers is a genius

    I love his predictions

  • This isn't socialist or capitalist! It's just stupid

  • @looolz26 it's called fascist, and yeah its stupid.

  • Visited Fitchburg Ma. last night.

    Beautiful , elegant buildings in the downtown area telling me the story of a past of freedom and prosperity.

    The story told : America collapsed a long time ago. "Walmart" didn't kill America it's just the product of a dead America.

    The Canadian dollar is worth 3 cents more than the American dollar.

    Our currency is at an all time low and getting lower. The town I live in has a foreclosure rate of over 50% indicative of how little control we have over our market

  • Definition of Capitalism = Jim Rogers, we have been run by Socialists for too long give us back our open free market!!

  • Why is it that brilliant guys like Rogers sit on the sidelines and we have an idiot for President running the world into the ground? This enigma simply underscores the fact that a Democratric Republic only works with an educated, entrepeneurial populace -- who have read and believe in the Preamble to the Declaration -- as envisined by the founders.. In contrast, we have a "dumb and dumber" populace.

  • @smartgirl11100 - I'm no supporter of Obama, never was, but you and I know he is not running anything, nor were those who came before him, he is taking orders, so clean up the corruption, because voting for another will not change anything, vote all you want, the flight plan does not change!

  • Jim is right America is indeed collapsing, its not certain when the total collapse will happen. America is only floating because of bailout and the Fed printing money but the fundamentals of the American economy are weak.

  • as long as i have food

  • man i wished they had such interesting financial tv channels in germany.. you must be really happy americans

  • @vwnclubb

    You have your money at the fed?? You must have alot of cash. ;)

    Joke aside-- FDIC insurance can't bail out everyone when the shit hits the fan.

    Why aren't you buying gold if you're worried about bank failures?

  • From a Singaporean, HELL YEA! Jim Rogers ideals work here. Competition and conflict forever! Such theories keep a country alive. Short term pain, for long term progress. Kick out the incompetent, and replace them with fresh, new competent people. The system will suffer in the short term, sure, but one must be willing to bear some pain, for the sake of future progress.

  • @TaintedFaith88 - it's time the ass holes on Wall street & their bedfellows, Con-gress, bare some pain!

  • I don't know Jim Rogers, but from all the videos I have seen, i truly believe this guy is speaking from the heart. I don't think he's just out to make money by inciting fear amongst viewers to spur the market in his favor. I loved it when he said politicians are led by academics and lawyers who don't know how business works... So god dammed true. The speed of regulation and control can never match the speed of how the market's mood changes. Only a true businessman will understand that.

  • 600 million people in the world? more like 6 thousand million aka 6 billion humans. we are a rampant bacteria, and our petri dish is about to run out of nutrients

  • Now Geitner is talking about raising the debt limit or else the U.S. will default and the economy will completely collapse. By March, we are going to hear whether or not congress will raise it - you know they will.

  • Jim Rogers is a sharp financial mind.

  • I really want to prove these smug doomsday prognosticators wrong. Let's wipe that certainty off their faces by turning the economy around somehow. Here's a hint -- stop packing up our economy and moving it wholesale to China, but smug doomsday prognosticators like it when we do that, because they profit, and they care nothing for the United States of America.

  • Clear insights - clearly formulated - very good

  • I like Jim Rogers but the bow tie just keeps me picturing him as Droopy Dog...

  • let people fail is right...its called freedom of the individual to not be forced to take care of other people...thats including educating your stupid kids...or i should say public brainwashing...i want out of the beast

  • He forgot to add to that 29 yr old wall streeter is more often than not a jew!

  • NWO...we want NWO now...yahoo,we want NWO..

    I feel 90% of dont deserve anything in this world...NWO must take over

  • @xanaduisfaraway OMG your such a populist , you mean you actually want 10 percent of the population to exist ! call yourself an elitist !

  • @xanaduisfaraway WHAT A DICKHEAD

  • good i hope it crashes and burns...serves americans right..they're all ignorant and stuck up anyways.DON"T GO UP NORTH TO LOOK FOR WORK AFTER YOUR SHITS OVER.WE VIEW AMERICANS LIKE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE VIEW MEXICANS...FUCK AMERICA

  • @1988scottcarey I can see your ignorant........

  • @1988scottcarey  lol

  • @1988scottcarey yeah....but.....We aren't hiding behind Mexico...Canada always has and always will be hiding behind America's power? what do you think would happen if a country invaded Canada? America would come beat their ass for you...who's the Mexican now?

  • @dancingforrain2012 wrong asshole..most canadians think your a bunch of warmongering POS's..other countries dont invade canada because we are a peaceful nation ...keep your wars and riots south of the canadian border...we dont need you americunts

  • @creedstat no....they don't invade you because you have big brother right next door, its that simple...Canada is no more ready for war than Britney Spears.

  • @1988scottcarey We go down your coming down with us.

  • yawn

    

  • @TheMLGStudios Ignorance is bliss huh?

  • just one correction: power is shifting west, not east.  california-->asia = westward

  • I cannot disagree with anything that Jim Rogers has stated in this video.

  • @mrblujet Me too, I just have to say the man is a genius!

  • WELL DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT

  • @Choppa3rd no i want your fucking country to collapse to make way for the PRC...go fuck yourself america is broke and i will make sure it wil go down forever bitchessss...hahahahahahaha

  • @1UFAkEfe684 If it were just so simple as you vs us. That's the shell game they want you to believe. That way you don't get angry at the Feudal lords who rule your life.

    Welcome to the world.

  • the only ones making money is the same wall st crooks that started this mess

  • It is time to stop letting big business, politicians and global institutions fuck you in the ass. Pull your pants up, turn round and knock them out and get your pride and self respect back.

  • @sinwow33 i want america to fail forever...i hate this fucking country and people...make way for the PRC bitch

  • @1UFAkEfe684 GO FUCK YOURSELF DUMBASS 

  • Have you taken a look at what has been going on in the PRC lately?

    Think you post. Have a nice day : )

  • guys the system is fucked and your government don't give a shit about you.the little guy takes it in the ass everyday and the fucking scum at the top get richer but these motherfuckers will get it one day.

  • This mess comes from Marxist destroyers who are now in charge of our nation.

  • Nothing has changed in the last since this video was posted over a year ago. They haven't even passed legislation to stop what got us into this. Is nobody else frightened by this? The people with money and power aren't trying fix the system, they're frantically trying to save their own asses.

  • @Redbaron011 It's mass humanity which ultimately must contain crazed power elites, and corrupt government. When the people no longer have the strength of character to do so, they will become serfs slaves and even be eliminated by evil eites. It's the destiny of sheeple to be ruled.

  • yo Jim u wanna do something useful to ur society ?

    team up with Zeitgeist! we could build the first resource-based city before it's too late

  • I want El Salvador to collapse.....wait a minute.......your a third world piece of shit country anyway.......nobody wants to live there in the first place.....El Salvador has been collapsed for 100 years

  • I can't wait for china/asia to become rulers of the world. It is time for the European hedgemony to end so EU/america keep doing what you are doing.

    Have a good day;-)

  • @rogueposter China ......rulers of the world ?......they have 1.3 billion people of which 1 billion of them are classified as poor....China cant take care of themselves let alone the rest of the world.....you live in a fantasy land

  • @rogueposter The Zionist already own them too. So it makes no difference.

  • Dear Americans, please do some research on `Paul Keeting, the recession we had to have`. If you overspend, you will go broke. The only way for America not to go broke is for the US government to annually achieve a surplus on expenditure. You need to elect Ron Paul in 2012. Then in 2020 elect another person with his views. You may be able to save yourself as Obama is now selling America to china on the cheap.

  • The Federal Reserve Must End! All the politicians that voted for the bailout and the Health Care bill must be tried for treason and arrested.

  • lol.

  • your dad

  • One of the top 4 investors in the world. He has an impeccable reputation among security traders for foresight and candidness.

    Learn b4 you burn so you do not embarrass yourself again.

  • well said man!

  • A man with a billion more dollars than you.

  • gahhh!! How the fuck do I get out of this country?! LOL Can I hitch a ride to the netherlands with anyone? jk...kinda lol

  • @ChronoVassal Come live here in Amsterdam! It's nice..

  • I am a proud WASP. It is all my fault.

  • Comment removed

  • At this point, Jim Rogers became my idol.

  • YES

  • @rexdeodium Wise man

  • I want America to collapse. Cant wait until it does.

  • well fuck you too!!

  • @ridhwanah

    It's collapsing soon.

    the WASPs (white anglo saxon protestants) running this country has caused enough problems to many countries around the world

  • An awful lot of those WASPs are Jewish.

  • i dont want it too i live here but if it does im moving to britain for sure

  • @ridhwanah if US collapses the whole world collapses

    the world banks is essentially is a US bank

  • When America collapses what will become of El Salvador?

    I think that when America sneezes El Salvador catches a cold.

    If America collapses, then El Salvador will fall into the abyss.

    Be careful of what you wish for, because you might get your wish.

  • @ridhwanah yeah... it has to. Americans, including me, need a big slap in the face...

  • @ridhwanah What a dickhead.

  • Its about time America's economy is collapsing, maybe after america's collapse the world could breath in peace.

  • World Bankers control American Credit and Currency Valuation -- "World Bankers"

    America (production and consumption) is not limited to the Continental U.S.

    Japan is in no position nor are many African Nations to protect themselves from their enemies.

    The collapse of America will mean the collapse to far worse levels of many nations. America has two huge oceans and more than enough guns and food to survive the genocide that will ensue.

  • Interesting how americans think how the world is centred at them for their very existence. Why don't you collapse and find out how much the world misses you.

  • You "hatred" prevented you from "getting" my point about "World Banking"

    It's funny a Pakistani talking about human-rights violations, hahahaha.

    Do you practice your Namaj and the Red Mosque?

    My point Mr. Emotional was that American Foreign Policy is controlled by "World Bankers" -- You gov't collaborates with them.

    American Gov't gave Pakistan $10B in aid/welfarism last year alone, smile.

  • Explain how this works for us

  • What, how World Bankers control American Foreign Policy?

    Well 10 - 15 year wars tend to destroy a currency -- All of our long wars were followed by full-on and mini Depressions.

    American Politicians know this -- So entering a protracted War on Terror does not benefit America at all -- Not her businesses, infrastructure, health care, education, self-defense, nor purchasing power.

    So, why go to war like this?

    Only if those leading us in were shielded.

    Money Masters!

  • what do you mean by "the genocide"?

  • The genocide that will take place when the U.S stops "policing" the world, stops welfarising, and stops running a military colonial empire.

    I agree with what Jim is saying here, but those Asian creditors he names have the U.S as 60% of their debt-dolling -- the countries that get debt-dolling are seeking American consumer markets; maybe not in predominace but quite a bit (like 40%).

    You can't have America fall off without short-run failures around the world; thus "genocide" will result.

  • The difference between FDR and Obama is that FDR directed government taxpayers money to Main Street as opposed to Obama who directed Government taxpayers money to Wall Street! FDR gave money to be invested in the real economy called the physical-economy whereas Obama gave money to be invested in speculative-economy. Physical-economy is REAL PRODUCTION AND MANUFACTURING as opposed to Speculative-economy which is PAPER-BASED SPECULATION- VALUATION DEPENDENT. FDR is a realists, Obama is a dreamer.

  • join the revolution!!! start a movement in your community, network. and inform!

  • Obama wants to be bigger than FDR. Hopefully, more of us are better informed now than people were in the 1930s...hopefully. Now we have easy access to good information such as this video. We must vote these numbskulls out as fast as possible, and end the Fed.

  • I'm afraid that America will just turn to different bums, but we will see. I'm learning Mandarin and trying to get a job there before it's too late.

  • @hurryingfred How's the Mandarin going?

  • @Bluudclaat Hey man. It's going slow because I'm not taking any classes and I just study alone. That may change though. You studying it?

  • @hurryingfred thestudymachine com might help you with the Mandarin

  • Bernake, Greenspan, Barney Frank, Greenberg, Axelrod, Emanuel, etc (ad naseum) Have no fear Americunts, Gods "chosen people" are at work making this a nightmare for the goyim. It was so nice of you middle class buffoons to build yourselves such a politically correct gulag run by the new Stalinist Bolsheviks True history accounts that multitudes of Christians (MANY TIMES MORE THAN JEWS) were killed by Stalins "chosen" Judeo murderers. Wake up America-- the new gulag you're building is for you

  • Well said.

  • We need to dismantle the Fed... End the Fed!

  • iran north korea is not usa biggest enermies but WALL STREET IS

  • @PatriotsRepublic The fed creates bubbles by artificially lowering interest rates, then when they bring the rates back up, people cant pay and are forced to default, many defaulting own businesses, this causes them to fire employees, etc. Then this lowers the national GDP, and foreign investors demand more interest on their loans, then the government is forced to increase taxes to pay the loans, over 40% of taxes will go to pay foreign debt.

  • @PatriotsRepublic

    Too late I'm afraid.

    just my 2 c

  • @PatriotsRepublic if we end the fed, what bank should i put my money in? i ask the question because if my bank ever failed where would the insurance come from to replace my savings? before the fed when the market crashed in 1929, many banks failed and many people lost all their money without any recourse of recooperation.

  • @vwnclubb Private insurance would be a far better protection for your savings than some government monstrosity.... and the FDIC is not the same body as the Fed... the FDIC is a public government body while the Fed is a cabal of private banks. If you want to protect your savings, get gold, silver, platinum and palladium. These metals hold their value very well and whats more, they appreciate in value more than any savings account will appreciate.

  • When Jim Rogers speaks, Obama and the Bolsheviks should listen.

  • Of course AmeriKKKa is collapsing. And by design...

  • I think it's now safe to say Jim's favorite car is the Maserati.

  • We weren't collapsing then we were rectifying through the pure free market forces a flase eocnomy. Corrections were being made and still yet the "pain and suffering" was exagerrated and the "buyout" gov takeover through forced purchase of stock of American companies was plot to detroy this country by Bernkae, Paulson, and the people behind them Soros, the left, the enemies of this country and now their boy is in office that little snide tyrannical bitch Obama, whose screwed us even more..

  • interesting comment. can you elaborate?

  • China has been world nr1 for a very long time. In history, China has arguably been nr1 for give or take a thousand years. TWICE.

    They are going for the 3rd time. Everytime I see people gamble on when China is collapsing (usually basing their argument on emotion or hatred), I laugh. Do you even know anything about China?

    For starters, the Chinese government has the highest approval rating in the world.

  • Adolf Hitler had a high approval rating as well?

    I wonder why?

  • Yes and Nazi Germany didnt collapse from within as a consequence. High approval rates kind has that effect. OWNED.

    I sense a deliberate comparison between Nazi Germany and present day China. If you think China, is akin to Nazi Germany, than you are a complete and utter retard. Case closed.

  • When did I ever say Germany collapsed from inside?

    But Germany did collapse from external forces.OWNED.

    See I can talk about something you never said too?

    I was merely stating the high approval is from the fact that it is a totalitarian state with absolute control over the people.

  • The only comparison between china and Germany is you either do what they say or become a slave laborer.

  • there are way to many very dumb people

    just let them fall who cares

  • roggers is awesome. hot commodities is a great book!

  • Gee Jim, as Soros's right-hand man at the quantum fund, you were right in the middle of pumping the Wall St. bubble, including his pump-and-dump investment books hyping his own investments.

    Now you say it was the REGULATORS fault?!? That's like a mobster saying his activities are really the police's fault for not sending out enough patrols!

    Jim has already abandoned his country to live in authoritarian China.

    Forgive me if I am skeptical of this guy's libertarian motives.

  • jim rogers knows exactly who should be able to be involved in serious financial decisions - not money hungry sharks, but long term serious investers, who appreciate hard working, honest people.

  • PRAYER FOR AMERICA....by Catman Cohen

    This is the controversial video from mysterious shadow musician, Catman Cohen, that so accurately predicted the current eco-socio-politico crisis in which America finds itself today. "Prayer for America" is an unflinching depiction of the American Dream turned nightmare.

  • This was all pre-planned in order to take the next step toward the NWO! Look for food prices ski rocketing, micro chip implants to be mandatory, some new catastrophy(sp)like another bomb killing 500k or more people! Look, either prepare for the worse or leave the county! Australia or Africa are good alternatives!

  • No where to run,no where to hide.Plant a BIG garden,get a BIG gun,get an OLD car and maybe a horse Start fishing,raise some chickens.Get a cow and a goat.Read the Bible and pray.

  • I was agreeing with you until you mentioned the bible! No thanks!!!!!!!! The bible has some good in it but FAR too much evil!! I want nothing to do with it! You also said pray! What for? I prayed for 31 years but it did NOTHING! No thanks! I believe in a supreme being(creator)but stop short of the creator having personal relation ships with people-RELIGION is man made and it's on the verge of being the CAUSE of the end of man kind!

  • okay.prayer has psychological effects that may help you make better choices the bible is a big book of adventure with lots of survival information.

  • If you want to depend on that stuff fine so long as you don't run around trying to sell that CRAP to other people who aren't interested!

  • Not selling,dont care about religion. what books would you choose?

  • Not much of a reader myself!

  • LOL!!!

  • No Jim, the money has shifted west.

    Oh wait that's the east...

  • The level of absurdity now is so unbelievable that people cannot wrap their brains around it. Denial is the natural first reaction to outrageous behavior. Good Germans all of us.

    Why don't we just SAY it. Financial oligarchs have captured American government. They are now herding us like cattle. The blatant nature of the CONgress rollover and submission to these criminals' threats and demands tells me we will continue to get it in both holes until there is public action.

  • Which is why we never should have let the government get this big and powerful.
