Another EU member on the brink (Economics) 11 Months, 3 Weeks ago

Spaniards alarmed by the dire state of their banks are squirreling money abroad at the fastest rate since records began, figures showed on Thursday, and the credit ratings of eight regions were cut.

Spain is the next country in the firing line of the euro zone's debt crisis, with spendthrift regions and shaky banks threatening to blow a hole in state finances and pushing funding costs towards levels that signal the need for a bailout.

Dang it Ricohoc ,

I look at this stuff all day and all I want to do is sit back at night and peruse the "Clinic" for ideas, conversation and fun and you have to go putting this out there...

We have some real problems coming, look at the broad indicators; income, output, employment, revision of GDP growth rate, that's just the US.

May need to turn into a prepper!

A good "prepper" knows how to find another one that he can out-smart. Let the other guy prep, and when the baloon goes up, take his stuff!

I actually rolled that on a shooting buddy during the whole Y2K thing. He was always blowing about this and that he had bought and squirreled away. One day, he asked me what I was doing to prepare. I told him I had a map of his house floor plan, and I could out-shoot him! (he knew it was true). Ralph did nt converse much with me again until the whole thing blew over without a hitch. Then he asked if I was serious. I gave him a grin, and nothing more! I STILL know where he lives, and a couple more, and I can out-shoot and out-wit any of them.

It appears that bad things may be around the corner. Maybe the Mayans really knew their stuff! If it does get real ugly, the preppers are going to be the ones to suffer the most. They will only prolong their own misery. I'd rather live for today and die a quick death if things go real south.

South ain't far from where we are my friend! Kill the power grid, and it's anarchy. No power, no comms, no water, It don't take much.

I guess now is the time to shamelessly put in a plug for folks to read one of my short books titled 'The Day Time Ran Out' a yarn about 2 bikers and another couple who try to make their way out of the L.A. basin to a planned strong hold on the edge of the mountains after society has gone to pot.
The book is free and you can download it in almost any format. The only thing is they are not riding Roadies, they are riding hogs.
