Economy Trends & Forecast

World Economy 2003-2005

with Saturn in Cancer

Economics is all about shared resources. An economy is the interaction between human beings and the sharing of resources. If humanity does not interact, there is no economy. In understanding economics, it is important to have a realistic understanding of the future as it relates to the present.

Our actions within the economy are continuously creating a specific future for ourselves. It is this oversight that a good strategist needs in order to meet and overcome any sudden changes that may destabilize a society's economy. Short-term economics might answer the strategists' needs and desires for today, but it will certainly not meet the long-term needs. The mistakes that are made in the short-term have a very long arm and memory. Like an elephant, the economy never forgets.

To run a good business, economy, or a society, it is important to pay attention to long term needs through the manipulation or guidance of current economic behavior. This is a concept every modern economist shuns. Economics are merely the observation of human behavior and they will always be so. There is no economy without people.

Perhaps we cannot meet every need on this planet, but we can make a new beginning by understanding how to deal with real human interactions in a way that not only increases, but also enhances our projects, wishes, and needs. A true economy grows like a tree. In fact, nature itself is a perfect example of true economics at work and should be studied by every economist.

To find a true balance between development and profit, the economist has to consider all aspects involved in human interactions. Money, as the only value of profit, creates an imbalance in how society functions and it has no real long-term value. Today's high profits can just as easily be tomorrows high losses and society's downfall.

In any economic evaluation, there must be an appraisal of, and consideration for, social values. Geographical social conditions have to be met and dealt with as part of an overall economic growth if the interactions of human beings is to survive. It is our concern that any gains or benefits, resulting from a new project, need to reflect their success within the entire community. Growth economics is all about creating healthy people in a healthy environment. How else will we meet our needs as a society?

As in nature, a growth situation benefits many creatures. The strong and healthy growth of a young oak tree will later bring food and nourishment to many. It will bring shelter to animals, humans, and birds as it manifests its beauty. It is also important for a healthy economy as it is a future source of wood. It has to be in a growing financial environment to accomplish its goal.

Any economic project is like a young oak tree in the sense of following earth rules of economics. It must stimulate many areas of growth, bringing with it balance, protection, and wealth. Without social awareness, an economy becomes a self-contained tower of acquisition that benefits no one in the end.

When economic development benefits more people than just those creating new opportunities, society will grow for the good of all. Development is merely the organization of balanced human interaction. There is no such thing as isolated growth. When economists become aware of this truth, they will be able to correct the imbalances by bringing the downfall when the tower of isolated profits falls.

As a society, we have now reached the entry of Saturn in Cancer, from June 2003  until July 2005, where the housing market, food chain, and world economy might well go through a structural meltdown.

During his 2001 radio show, St.Clair predicted that the economy would be transformed into a war-game monopoly, and that business practices and ethics would come under scrutiny as the greed-based abuse of the corporate economy was exposed. Vice President Cheney will now be investigated, as St.Clair predicted in 2002 within his treatise Passage11 (the core of his book), and it will also become evident who financed the Bush campaign and how it was done.

Eventually, links will be established to the corporations and secret investigations will be made regarding the documents that were buried with the World Trade Center. The economy has, in effect, dropped by two digit percentage points in less than one year, and the trend is further spiraling downwards as the Wall Street house of cards unravels.

In an effort to spin the truth, the financial media would have us believe the reasons are not what they truly are. The psychological warfare motivations and intentions of large media owners will become evident.

Investors will now truly start to ask the fundamental and uncomfortable questions that should have been asked ten years ago. More regulations and police state measures will be the consequence. Ultimately, the business climate in the U.S. will be miserable enough to drive away foreign investors for a long time. The war effort is being mounted in order to artificially resuscitate a non-existing shadow economy.

Accounting firms and publicly held companies will now be investigated frequently as the chain reaction of malpractice comes to light. Real estate and precious metals will be the winners in a new economic system that has yet to be fully defined. After Bush leaves office, a new worldwide economy will have to be implemented based on the realities of what corporations and national gross products are actually worth. The economy will collapse, as we know it, by the spring of 2003.

From Spring 2003 throughout 2004, we will see an entirely new game plan for an economy that will critically have to be re-invented. It will also become evident that everything affects everything and that isolationism or protectionism will no longer work. The global village will now have to come together to address the motive of having an economy in the first place.
