    Gerald Celente
    Celente says that by 2012 America will become an undeveloped nation, that there will be a revolution marked by food riots, squatter rebellions, tax revolts and job marches, and that holidays will be more about obtaining food, not gifts.

    The man who predicted the 1987 stock market crash and the fall of the Soviet Union is now forecasting revolution in America, food riots and tax rebellions - all within four years, while cautioning that putting food on the table will be a more pressing concern than buying Christmas gifts by 2012.
    Gerald Celente, the CEO of Trends Research Institute, is renowned for his accuracy in predicting future world and economic events, which will send a chill down your spine considering what he told Fox News this week.
    Celente says that by 2012 America will become an undeveloped nation, that there will be a revolution marked by food riots, squatter rebellions, tax revolts and job marches, and that holidays will be more about obtaining food, not gifts.
    “We’re going to see the end of the retail Christmas….we’re going to see a fundamental shift take place….putting food on the table is going to be more important that putting gifts under the Christmas tree,” said Celente, adding that the situation would be “worse than the great depression”.
    “America’s going to go through a transition the likes of which no one is prepared for,” said Celente, noting that people’s refusal to acknowledge that America was even in a recession highlights how big a problem denial is in being ready for the true scale of the crisis.​
    Celente, who successfully predicted the 1997 Asian Currency Crisis, the subprime mortgage collapse and the massive devaluation of the U.S. dollar, told UPI in November last year that the following year would be known as “The Panic of 2008,” adding that “giants (would) tumble to their deaths,” which is exactly what we have witnessed with the collapse of Lehman Brothers, Bear Stearns and others. He also said that the dollar would eventually be devalued by as much as 90 per cent.

    The consequence of what we have seen unfold this year would lead to a lowering in living standards, Celente predicted a year ago, which is also being borne out by plummeting retail sales figures.
    The prospect of revolution was a concept echoed by a British Ministry of Defence report last year, which predicted that within 30 years, the growing gap between the super rich and the middle class, along with an urban underclass threatening social order would mean, “The world’s middle classes might unite, using access to knowledge, resources and skills to shape transnational processes in their own class interest,” and that, “The middle classes could become a revolutionary class.”
    In a separate recent interview, Celente went further on the subject of revolution in America.
    “There will be a revolution in this country,” he said. “It’s not going to come yet, but it’s going to come down the line and we’re going to see a third party and this was the catalyst for it: the takeover of Washington, D. C., in broad daylight by Wall Street in this bloodless coup. And it will happen as conditions continue to worsen.”

    “The first thing to do is organize with tax revolts. That’s going to be the big one because people can’t afford to pay more school tax, property tax, any kind of tax. You’re going to start seeing those kinds of protests start to develop.”


    “It’s going to be very bleak. Very sad. And there is going to be a lot of homeless, the likes of which we have never seen before. Tent cities are already sprouting up around the country and we’re going to see many more.”
    “We’re going to start seeing huge areas of vacant real estate and squatters living in them as well. It’s going to be a picture the likes of which Americans are not going to be used to. It’s going to come as a shock and with it, there’s going to be a lot of crime. And the crime is going to be a lot worse than it was before because in the last 1929 Depression, people’s minds weren’t wrecked on all these modern drugs – over-the-counter drugs, or crystal meth or whatever it might be. So, you have a huge underclass of very desperate people with their minds chemically blown beyond anybody’s comprehension.”​




    The George Washington blog has compiled a list of quotes attesting to Celente’s accuracy as a trend forecaster.
    “When CNN wants to know about the Top Trends, we ask Gerald Celente.”
    — CNN Headline News “A network of 25 experts whose range of specialties would rival many university faculties.”
    — The Economist
    “Gerald Celente has a knack for getting the zeitgeist right.”
    — USA Today
    “There’s not a better trend forecaster than Gerald Celente. The man knows what he’s talking about.”
    - CNBC
    “Those who take their predictions seriously … consider the Trends Research Institute.”
    — The Wall Street Journal
    “Gerald Celente is always ahead of the curve on trends and uncannily on the mark … he’s one of the most accurate forecasters around.”
    — The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
    “Mr. Celente tracks the world’s social, economic and business trends for corporate clients.”
    — The New York Times
    “Mr. Celente is a very intelligent guy. We are able to learn about trends from an authority.”
    — 48 Hours, CBS News
    “Gerald Celente has a solid track record. He has predicted everything from the 1987 stock market crash and the demise of the Soviet Union to green marketing and corporate downsizing.”
    — The Detroit News
    “Gerald Celente forecast the 1987 stock market crash, ‘green marketing,’ and the boom in gourmet coffees.”
    — Chicago Tribune
    “The Trends Research Institute is the Standard and Poors of Popular Culture.”
    — The Los Angeles Times
    “If Nostradamus were alive today, he’d have a hard time keeping up with Gerald Celente.”
    — New York Post

    So there you have it - hardly a nutjob conspiracy theorist blowhard now is he? The price of not heeding his warnings will be far greater than the cost of preparing for the future now. Storable food and gold are two good places to make a start.

    Some of us are already prepared :) But yes I have a few more things I would like(such as a solar/wind hybrid system).
    When the dollar loses 10% of its value in a week you have to know something is going on.So far the worst week was 6.9%,but it is going to get worse.You can not print more money that your entire country earns in 5 years and expect your money to be worth the same. So far between the federal reserve,treasury,and congressional bailouts in the last 5 months we have printed 11 trillion dollars.And the Treasury and Fed are still giving billions out a week(just look at treasury auctions,or the Feds balance sheet). Now they are saying banks could need another TRILLION dollars to cover JUST bad home loans.And the idea that tax payers will get a single dime back is almost a joke.The only one who is getting any money back from the Chrysler bail out are the shareholders,and UAW...taxpayers are getting 0.The same will be the case when GM files.Stop thinking of preppers as people in tin hats and become one so you can provide for yourself and your family.It does not hurt to be prepared and self reliant.

    Even if I may agree, I think Celente himself is BS. There's no ready, verifiable documentation he made any accurate predictions and media references, such as they are, don't go back before 1999. I think he's self-hype.

    I believe it for the most part. I hope that's not the case, but either way I'm doing what I can to prepare. Hopefully I can get all my debt paid down and get things stocked up even more.

    Come on how smart do you have to be to know things are bad and are going to get much worse? Does anyone really think Obama devaluing the dollar (digging us even deeper in debt) is going to have some kind of positive effect? Many predictions are that 2012 will be the end of the world.

    The return of Planet X.
    One World Government becoming a reality.
    Nostradamus predictions.
    The
    Mayan, Inca, Aztec, Egyptian Prophecies very specific - December 2012.

    Seems like this guy is jumping on the band wagon.

    The bible says no one knows the exact time.
    So live each day as if that time is now. :twocents:

    I have always said total chaos in 15-20 years. Given the huge nationalization push we have seen with the TARP and auto industry, it is like less than 10 years away. The only thing saving us right now is that the entire world did the same thing we did, they printed more of their own money. As such, everyone's currency is devalued. It will take years for things to even out. The problem we really have is total market manipulation. The Saudis, and those up in Canada, are sick of oil not being $100 barrel anymore, so they are doing whatever they can to push it back up. The problem is that hundreds of thousands of people are cutting back. All I hear is that oil containers around the Earth of packed full of oil, but the oil producers and refiners are just standing firm on a certain price for gas and oil in general. The future doesn't look too good right now.

    Hopefully it was not a member here that shoved a WalMart employee at the ammo case Friday night.

    I witnessed a shoving match over "first in line" at the ammo case in WalMart on 96th street in Fishers.
    A middle aged man shoved the employee while reaching through the case.

    Going physical over .45, in a prosperous area, is a fine example of what the greater population will do when common items become difficult to acquire due to inflated dollars in a culture built on immediate gratification.

    Ugly.

    Not to jack this thread but, I was at the Walmart on Maysville Rd. in Fort Wayne waiting on the sporting goods attendant that is never ever there! When this guy comes practically running up to the ammo case with an empty cart and starts pawing the case trying to see what all is in there. I told him I had been waiting for a while on the worker and he looked at me like we were going to fight over this ammo. The attendant showed up and I said I want 4 of the 5 boxes of 00 the other guy jumped in and said he wanted all the value packs of federal .22s then proceeded to argue with the worker when he told him he was only allowed 2 boxes. THey argued the entire time the worker was checking me out. WTF! Get over it! Do you really need 1100 rounds of .22s that bad? ANd the fact that you brought an empty shopping cart back there tells me you were after way more than that! What a tool.....:twocents:

    +1 on hope, debt and food stocking.

    No ****? The Maysville place is usually peaceful. I thought they had a six box limit? I've never been able to pick mpore than 2 pr 3 boxes of 9mm.
    I thought the ammo crunch was easing. Hell I almost stopped in there today at 4:30pm. Any 9mm there?

    Back on topic:
    Wow I'd hate to see these people who fight over ammo if they needed food.

    Even if it deos happen, the average consumer is too stupid to see it. Many of them will still be giving Christmas gifts and clinging to commercialism until the day they die.

    FYI, the Government wont LET such a scenario happen. They will declare martial law to keep the peace, and 95% of the population will be on THEIR side.
