Tonight: The Biggest Speech of His Life; What Investors Can Expect Author: profitconfidential Most Americans will be glued to the television tonight to see what the leader of the most powerful country in the world has to stay about his plan to get the economy going; in specific, to create jobs. There is no doubt in my mind: President Barack Obama will be a one-term president unless he delivers on the promises he will make tonight. The economic situation in the U.S. continues to deteriorate rapidly: The “underemployment rate,” which includes part-time workers who want full-time work and people who have given up looking for work, sits at 16.2% in the U.S. right now. Last week, the U.S. Conference of Mayors (which includes the mayors of 1,191 U.S. cities with a population of 30,000 or more each) called upon Obama and Congress to create major road and bridge improvement through some form of transportation bill. More than 6.3 million households are past due by 30 days or more on their mortgages. My bet is that Obama will push for huge job creation in the form of huge, multi-billion-dollar programs…infrastructure improvement and help with payroll tax. The Republican-controlled Congress will balk at raising personal taxes to fund these initiatives, so we are eventually talking more debt. Many analysts are now expecting the Fed to unleash a new form of QE3. This will pump more money into the system as more dollars are printed. Let’s face the facts. The only way our politicians and the Fed know how to stimulate the economy is to spend more and print more money. Both actions will continue to place immense pressure on the U.S. dollar. Is it any wonder that gold prices have been going through the roof? Does $3,000-an-ounce gold really sound unreasonable now? Michael’s Personal Notes: Talk about big numbers… In a study for the Dallas-based National Center for Policy Analysis, a Boston University economics professor claims that the true debt of the federal government is $211 trillion. According to Professor Laurence Kotlikoff, the government has been “incurring enormous unofficial debt and using fraudulent deficit accounting to keep these huge bills facing our children off the books.” Social Security and Medicare are two huge government liabilities not on the books of the government. If Kotlikoff is right, with the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of the U.S. at $14.0 trillion a year, it would take 15 years of all the GDP the U.S. creates to erase the $211 trillion in U.S. debt.
