Can the USA Be Saved?
Will the people change their ways?
I do not think so, nothing will really change.
People are not smart enough to change.
Only when things go really wrong, only then will people change, not because the choose to but becasue they have to.

Gold - Short term lows
Gold is now deep in the timing band for a daily cycle low. Best guess is gold should tag the 38% Fibonacci retracement before bouncing out of that short term bottom. Gold could tag the 50% retracement at $1,292

Anonymous Web Surfing
There is less anonymity on the internet than many people realize. When people surf the web they also leave behind bread crumbs, well their IP address is left behind. And, unfortunately, those crumbs are awfully tasty to many little creatures like search engines, snoopers, and cookie monsters. The wrong creatures getting a hold of those crumbs can leave you much more than lost and hungry if you are not careful. You may even incur tax liability of you do not properly guard your IP address. From building a user profile to viewing sensitive data, there are many opportunities for others to benefit from knowing your IP address. Fortunately there are ways of keeping your web surfing anonymous.

The year America dissolved

Simon Chair of Political Economy in the Center for Strategic and International Studies.
