Chronicles Of Depression 2.0: #408: Celente

First, you need to read this:
Note that this is no fringer veering into conspiracist phantasm: Celente consults for hundreds of large and small corporations, addresses government bodies worldwide. Norway flew him to Europe in 2006 to address a conference on innovation, while the International Council of Shopping Centers hosted him as the key-note speaker at its 2007 convention – the mall builders hoped to glean from Celente “what people want from malls.” It’s notable, in the wake of the prognoses of his 2008 reports, that he is no longer invited onto the TV and cable networks – “the first year in decades,” he says, “that they did not have me on and that USA Today did not cover the Trends Report.” When Celente sent out an e-mail alert to his mailing list in mid-January, Jack Marks, the publisher and CEO of The Wall Street Reporter, one of the oldest investment organs in New York, wrote him back to say “You are a fucking retard motherfucker” and “Remove me from this list, you fucking moron.”

Interesting, isn't it, that email from the esteemed Wall Street Reporter?

What would elicit such a fierce reaction?

This:

Celente Predicts Revolution, Food Riots, Tax Rebellions By 2012
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.

Emphasis added by me.

Hmmm ... who has been saying something similar?

Celente is no crackpot (even though this article link is to one of the conspiracy favorites, Prison Planet). He's written books. He's been on TV and radio programs. He's been quoted in mainstream articles.

How many people have to tell you what's ahead?
