    Renowned investor George Soros said on Friday the world financial system has effectively disintegrated, adding that there is yet no prospect of a near-term resolution to the crisis.

    Soros said the turbulence is actually more severe than during the Great Depression, comparing the current situation to the demise of the Soviet Union.

    He said the bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers in September marked a turning point in the functioning of the market system.

    “We witnessed the collapse of the financial system,” Soros said at a Columbia University dinner. “It was placed on life support, and it’s still on life support. There’s no sign that we are anywhere near a bottom.”

    His comments echoed those made earlier at the same conference by Paul Volcker, a former Federal Reserve chairman who is now a top adviser to President Barack Obama.

      This is very frightening. How soon will the collapse? It will be global and synchronised.

      this is what will happen with the NEW WORLD ORDER
      and one world government

      they will get all they want and then it will all collapse again
      that will be the time of the great tribulation
      and the mark of the beast

      when they attack all forms of religions and say OK FOLLOW THE BEAST NOW

      when JESUS COMES BACK they will attack HIM BECAUSE

      THE GOVERNMENT WILL BE UPON HIS SHOULDERS AND OF HIS RULE AND KINGDOM

      THERE IS NO END HE WILL DESTOY HIS ATTACKING ENEMIES WITH FIRE

      for what purpose THE BIBLE SAYS SO THAT THEY WILL KNOW

      THAT I AM THE LORD

      JESUS IS GOD wake up and read your own bible and tell your lying pastors in your lying churches to screw off

      THE HOLY SPIRIT WILL LEAD YOU INTO ALL TRUTH AS YOU TRUST HIM
      and read the LORDS WORD YOU WILL GROW

      YOU WILL BE LOVED

      Less stock = higher price. I have no idea why the US government don’t protect consumers by renting some buffer tanks to help avoid too much pull during demand surge. And during crisis, when many people don’t have job, and fixed income, how can those people afford vary oil and other commodities prices ? This is very simple logic why the government has to intervene oil price and we cannot afford free market when many people have fixed income who still have to pay for sub-prime mortgage. If one nation has only wealthy powerful individuals, yes, they can afford free market.

      Soros and his fellow super-rich elitist, robber barons created the crisis in the first place and they will be presenting their solution soon, that being a New International Economic Order. In the meantime, I’m sure his money is safe. I wish I could say the same for you and I.

      Don’t you see? Does anyone have eyes? This is the BEAST!!!!! The Banks that rule the world and have taken control of the monetary system of all nations. This country was immune or resistant to it until 1913!!!! This is when the Federal Reserve was born. It was a group of greedy world banks that sucked us dry and convinced Woodrow Wilson in allowing our money to be issued by banks!!! This is directly against the Constitution that states that Congress alone should issue currency. This debt of nations is ridiculous! For the love of money is the root of all evil! This is the Beast of the Sea that came out of Dr. Jeckyl island and from out of the sea. The U.S. was supposed to have escaped the debt of the King by declaring its independance. The second beast of the earth is the OIL companies. These huge companies that control the world by its energy and they really do have us all over a barrel. That Oil that is made up of mostly Carbon. Carbon which makes up mortal creatures and the build up of Carbon is the kiss of death in all living organisims. Carbon that carries 6 electrons, 6 protons, and 6 neutrons.
