Trend forecaster, renowned for being
accurate in the past, says that America will cease to be a developed
nation within 4 years, crisis will be “worse than the great
depression” |
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.
Celente Predicts Revolution, Food Riots, Tax Rebellions By 2012
“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
-
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
Defense 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.”
