Isn't this a curious phrase to be in the Bible? Is it speaking to the Jews of finally gaining the West Bank, or control of Gaza, and that entire region of the Middle East? I think it means more. Let's take a look.
7 Rest in the LORD and wait patiently for Him;
Do not fret because of him who prospers in his way,
Because of the man who carries out wicked schemes. 8 Cease from anger and forsake wrath;
Do not fret; it leads only to evildoing. 9 For evildoers will be cut off,
But those who wait for the LORD, they will inherit the land. 10 Yet a little while and the wicked man will be no more;
And you will look carefully for his place and he will not be there. 11 But the humble will inherit the land
And will delight themselves in abundant prosperity.
Psalms 37:7-11 (NASB95)
27 Depart from evil and do good,
So you will abide forever. 28 For the LORD loves justice
And does not forsake His godly ones;
They are preserved forever,
But the descendants of the wicked will be cut off. 29 The righteous will inherit the land
And dwell in it forever. 30 The mouth of the righteous utters wisdom,
And his tongue speaks justice. 31 The law of his God is in his heart;
His steps do not slip. 32 The wicked spies upon the righteous
And seeks to kill him. 33 The LORD will not leave him in his hand
Or let him be condemned when he is judged. 34 Wait for the LORD and keep His way,
And He will exalt you to inherit the land;
When the wicked are cut off, you will see it.
Psalms 37:27-34 (NASB95)
* One thing I love about the Hebrew word for land (aretz), it can also signify ‘earth.’ And I think that is a valid meaning in Ps. 37, as in v. 34: ‘Wait for YHWH and keep His way, and He will exalt you to inherit the earth.’ Amen! For that is how it is going to be during the Millenial reign of Messiah, and after the great judgment, the saints will dwell on the earth with YHWH, the Lord Jesus Himself, for all eternity!” (Zech 14:9; Rev. 21:1-2, 22:1-7)
9 And the LORD will be king over all the earth; in that day the LORD will be the only one, and His name the only one.
Zech 14:9 (NASB95)
1 Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth; for the first heaven and the first earth passed away, and there is no longer any sea. 2 And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, made ready as a bride adorned for her husband.
Rev 21:1-2 (NASB95)
1 Then he showed me a river of the water of life, clear as crystal, coming from the throne of God and of the Lamb, 2 in the middle of its street. On either side of the river was the tree of life, bearing twelve kinds of fruit, yielding its fruit every month; and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations. 3 There will no longer be any curse; and the throne of God and of the Lamb will be in it, and His bond-servants will serve Him; 4 they will see His face, and His name will be on their foreheads. 5 And there will no longer be any night; and they will not have need of the light of a lamp nor the light of the sun, because the Lord God will illumine them; and they will reign forever and ever.
6 And he said to me, "These words are faithful and true"; and the Lord, the God of the spirits of the prophets, sent His angel to show to His bond-servants the things which must soon take place.
7 "And behold, I am coming quickly. Blessed is he who heeds the words of the prophecy of this book."
Rev 22:1-7 (NASB95)
We can see from these passages that the LORD, Yahweh, Jesus Himself is returning to rule on earth for a thousand years, in accordance with the words of the prophets. After the thousand years are up, and the great judgment has taken place, then the New Jerusalem comes down out of heaven to the earth, and the tri-une LORD God will dwell on earth together with redeemed, perfected man forevermore.
Truly, the quickly approaching second advent of Messiah will be the dawning of a new age the world has never known or seen, in which the world will be rule by complete righteousness and holiness (Isaiah 9:7).

Common Plants cure Gout
9 Out of the ground the LORD God caused to grow every tree that is pleasing to the sight and good for food;
Gen 2:9 (NASB95)
I know that this seems out of place in a blog like this, but my wife and I over the past year have been discovering the wonders of the plants around us that the LORD has given us, and the many uses they have that we previously thought couldn't be helped without the use of band-aids or medical visits. We have been so industrialized, and forgotten the wonder of created nature, with so many herbal remedies and food supplies.
My mother in law has problems with gout, and as my wife is reading through one of her gardening books, she discovers that Cucumber juice is good for dissolving Uric acid which causes gout! And the next entry, Currants, the leaves taken from the Currant plant, and made into tea is also good for dissolving the Uric acid as well as having carminative effects.
Another good thing about Currants is that they never get old... they're always currant! haha...

Israel- How Can You Defend Her?
David Harris wrote a most interesting little article no the Huffington Post. No, I don't read the blog, not regularly. I read this in the observatins column of Daily Alert, prepared for the presidents of Jewish organizatins and corprations within the U.S. to keep them abreast of the world-situation. I think he makes a very good point!
"How Can You Defend Israel?" - David Harris (Huffington Post)
After a lecture at a British university, an old acquaintance said to me: "I read the things you write about Israel. I hate them. How can you defend that country? What happened to the good liberal boy I knew 30 years ago?" I replied: "That good liberal boy hasn't changed his view. Israel is a liberal cause, and I am proud to speak up for it."
Sometimes it's the small things, the driving lesson in Jerusalem, with the student behind the wheel a devout Muslim woman, and the teacher an Israeli with a skullcap. It's the two gay men walking hand-in-hand along the Tel Aviv beachfront and no one looked at them. It's the Friday crowd at a mosque in Jaffa.
It's the central bus station in Tel Aviv where a free health clinic was set up for the thousands of Africans who have entered Israel, some illegally. While tiny Israel wonders how many such refugees it can absorb, Israeli medical professionals volunteer their time in the clinic.
It's Save a Child's Heart, an Israeli institution providing children from Iraq, the West Bank, Gaza, and other Arab places with world-class cardiac care for free.
It's the Israelis who, with quiet resolve and courage, are determined to defend their small sliver of land against every conceivable threat - the growing Hamas arsenal in Gaza; the dangerous build-up of missiles by Hizbullah in Lebanon; nuclear-aspiring Iran's calls for a world without Israel; Syria's hospitality to Hamas leaders and transshipment of weapons to Hizbullah; and enemies that shamelessly use civilians as human shields.

Celebration of Advent
Advent Prophecies:
Yesterday we just got to celebrate our Lord’s first coming to the earth, which is known as the first advent. We had just checked out a movie from the library called Messianic Prophecy Fulfilled. It was a really good Christian movie, and a real clear presentation of the gospel. It was about a Jewish family one year after Christ had been crucified, raised and ascended to the Father. This family, one year later, was celebrating the next Passover meal, and the eldest brother of this family, Yuda, was a rabbinic priest by training, but had believed Yeshusa is the Messiah, the fulfillment of scriptures. And in the movie, he leads his family and relatives through the Passover Seder, and describes how Jesus is the fulfillment of the Seder.
This was a very encouraging movie, only 50 minutes, but an excellent explanation of the gospel and how Jesus is God’s predicted Messiah.
Today many people talk about Jesus and seem to like the example of his life. In fact, heretical emerging church leaders, Dan Kimball wrote a book called They like Jesus but they Don’t like the Church. But the person these people are talking about is not a Jesus described in the Bible, but a new age Jesus who is a teacher only. Many new-agers, including Oprah Winfrey, tell us that Jesus came to show us how to reach the spark of divinity that is within all of us. He came to teach us that we are all God, they say.
But He didn’t come for that. He did come to open a way to be rightly restored in our relationships to God, but He did it in accordance with God’s Law given under the Old Covenant, or Testament, and in accord with the prophecies given by the Jewish prophets of old, who gave us the Old Testament. Romans 3:21 says 21 But now apart from the Law the righteousness of God has been manifested, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets.
When Jesus came the first time, he fulfilled many of the prophecies of Messiah, but not all of them. This is the reason why so many of the Jews did not believe Jesus was the true Messiah. He was not the political deliverer that they expected to deliver them from the Roman empire.
Let’s look at some of the prophecies that he did fulfill. Turn to Isaiah 7:14.
Virgin Birth
14 "Therefore the Lord Himself will give you a sign: Behold, a virgin will be with child and bear a son, and she will call His name Immanuel . Isaiah 7:14 (NASB95)
- Jesus is described in the Gospels as being born of the young, virgin girl Mary, and being the Son of God. So it can literally be understood that He is “God with Us.”
Born in Bethlehem
2 "But as for you, Bethlehem Ephrathah, Too little to be among the clans of Judah, From you One will go forth for Me to be ruler in Israel. His goings forth are from long ago, From the days of eternity." Micah 5:2 (NASB95)
- Matt. 2:5-6 credit Christ’s birth in Bethlehem as a fulfillment of Micah’s prediction.
Born of the tribe of Judah:
10 "The scepter shall not depart from Judah, Nor the ruler's staff from between his feet, Until Shiloh comes, And to him shall be the obedience of the peoples. Gen 49:10
- Being born of the tribe of Judah is shown fulfilled in Luke 3:23-24 and in Matt. 1:1-16.
Messiah a Descendent of King David
"The days are coming," declares the LORD, "when I will raise up to David a righteous Branch, a King who will reign wisely and do what is just and right in the land. Jer. 23:5
- We see this fulfilled in the genealogies in Matthew in Luke. Some scholars think Matt. is Jesus’ legal line through his adoptive father Joseph, while Luke is through his mother Mary.
It was prophesied that He would work many Miracles: 5 Then the eyes of the blind will be opened and the ears of the deaf will be unstopped. 6 Then the lame will leap like a deer, And the tongue of the mute will shout for joy. Isaiah 35:5-6 (NASB95)
Fulfillments:
John 4:46-54 – Healing of Royal Officals son
Mark 1:21-28; Luke 4:33-37 – Healing of a Demon Possessed Man
Matt. 8:1-3; Mk. 1:40-42 – Healing a Leper
Matt. 9:1-8; Mk. 2:1-2; Lk. 5:18-26 – Healing of a Paralytic
So we see some of the predictions that Christ fulfilled with his birth and life. There are more fulfilled by his death on the cross, such as Ps. 22 that speaks of his crucifixion and the gambling for his clothes, Ps. 16:10 that speaks of his resurrection, and probably one of the greatest that is not completely fulfilled yet, is Isaiah 52:13 through the end of 53, which foretells in some detail of his substitutionary death on the cross, and the justification of many sinners through this act on the cross. This is probably the greatest prophesy of the Messiah as what is known as a “suffering servant.” The Jews could not reconcile how their Messiah could be a king and political ruler, ruling with such impressive majesty and justice over the entire world, and yet be a suffering servant, suffering affliction at the hands of sinful men. And when the Jewish rulers of his day looked at Jesus, they did not see a king who was earnest to establish Jewish rule.
But we are blessed, who live at the end of the ages. We look around us, and see all the prophecies being fulfilled leading to the Messiah’s second coming. If you remember the time-line I made for you, showing the events leading up to the Messiah’s final return according to the Bible. Scripture indicates a war that will set Israel above the enemy nations around her, give Israel security, and expand her borders. This is Psalm 83. It could be the same as the famed “battle of Magog,” which scholars down through the centuries have believed will be Russia coming out of the north, allied with Muslim countries to rule Israel. The groundwork for Ezek. 38 is quickly falling into place as well. So it could turn out to be one Ginormous battle of the ages, to usher in a brief time of peace unknown to the Jews for centuries, ruled by one man we know as Antichrist.
So let’s look at some of the prophecies containing the Messiah’s second advent, or coming. Turn with me if you will to Micah chapter 4:1-4:
Micah 4:1-4
Isaiah 9:6-7
Zechariah 8:1-8, 20-23
Zech. 14:9-11
We can see in these passages why the Jews had such trouble believing that Yeshua was Messiah, or why his disciples were confused why He didn’t restore the kingdom from Roman rule. These passages speak of a glorious reign of Messiah over the nations in peace and righteousness, and for the most part, most of the world will follow Messiah’s rule. Isaiah 11 also describes the conditions living under the rule of Messiah, and verse 10 tells us:
10 Then in that day The nations will resort to the root of Jesse, Who will stand as a signal for the peoples; And His resting place will be glorious. Isaiah 11:10 (NASB95)
Under the rule of Messiah Yeshua, we see that the effects of the curse are largely going to be reversed. We are told in Isaiah 65:20-22
20 "No longer will there be in it an infant who lives but a few days, Or an old man who does not live out his days; For the youth will die at the age of one hundred And the one who does not reach the age of one hundred Will be thought accursed. 21 "They will build houses and inhabit them; They will also plant vineyards and eat their fruit. 22 "They will not build and another inhabit, They will not plant and another eat; For as the lifetime of a tree, so will be the days of My people, And My chosen ones will wear out the work of their hands. Isaiah 65:20-22 (NASB95)
But earlier in the chapter, He speaks of those who forsake His ways, and do not regard His word:
11 "But you who forsake the LORD,
Who forget My holy mountain,
Who set a table for Fortune ,
And who fill cups with mixed wine for Destiny , 12 I will destine you for the sword,
And all of you will bow down to the slaughter.
Because I called, but you did not answer;
I spoke, but you did not hear.
And you did evil in My sight
And chose that in which I did not delight."
Isaiah 65:11-12 (NASB95)
And as is fitting, the last chapter of Isaiah closes with a summary picture of the Messiah’s rule, and the dreadful fate that awaits those who have not been born-again by the Lord’s grace. There is a picture of Hell unparalleled in the scriptures:
23 "And it shall be from new moon to new moon
And from sabbath to sabbath,
All mankind will come to bow down before Me," says the LORD. 24 "Then they will go forth and look
On the corpses of the men
Who have transgressed against Me.
For their worm will not die
And their fire will not be quenched;
And they will be an abhorrence to all mankind ."
Isaiah 66:22-24 (NASB95)
The LORD’s return is near, though none of us are promised tomorrow. Last weekend Tara and I almost lost little Elijah!
If you have never been born again, you need to seek the LORD in His word, and pray that He might save you from the eternal terrors of hell. Jesus Himself said that “unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God!” The wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. And God demonstrates His love for us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us! “Every man who is in Christ is a new creation; the old has gone, behold, all things have become new!” (2 Cor. 5:17) One who is born again can say, “I have been crucified with Christ, and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God who loved me nad gave Himself for me!” Gal. 2:20.

Reiki energy: Coming to a Hospital near you!
Lighthuse Trails published this article updating us of the permeation of a demonic/spiritual phenomenon which connects people to the spiritual world through contact with the demonic who disguise themselves as forces of good, universal healing based n Eastern views of an impersonal pantheistic god that underlines all things.
******
from http://www.lighthousetrailsresearch.com/
According to an article written by the "guru" of Reiki, William Lee Rand, the popularity of Reiki (and other energy healing techniques) is growing by leaps and bounds and is becoming common in many US hospitals. "At hospitals and clinics across America, Reiki is beginning to gain acceptance as a meaningful and cost-effective way to improve patient care," Rand explains. "Personal interviews conducted with medical professionals corroborate this view," (1) he adds.
Rand says that the general public is "turning with ever-increasing interest to complementary health care, including Reiki," and according to one study, one in every three Americans has used this type of "care." Another survey showed that "1.2 million adults and 161,000 children in the U.S. received one or more energy healing sessions such as Reiki."
For those who understand the nature of Reiki and other energy healing methods (e.g: therapeutic touch, healing touch, quantum touch, Pranic healing, and Brennan Healing Science), these figures are alarming.
Researcher Ray Yungen explains that energy healing "is a force or energy pouring out of the practitioner's hands into the client or subject. This energy always has a spiritual component and is supposed to alleviate a variety of ills and problems" (For Many Shall Come in My Name, p. 53). Yungen describes the nature of energy healing:
Occultists [i.e., New Agers] believe that man has more than one body, that there are other invisible bodies superimposed on the physical body. They refer to one of these as the etheric body and believe there lies within it energy centers called chakras (pronounced shock-ras). The term chakra means whirling wheel in Sanskrit, the ancient Hindu language. They were seen by those with clairvoyant powers as spinning balls of psychic energy. It is taught that there are seven chakras, which start at the base of the spine and end at the crown chakra at the top of the head.
Each chakra is supposed to have a different function corresponding to certain levels of awareness. The chakras act as conduits or conductors for what is called kundalini or serpent energy. They say this force lies coiled but dormant at the base of the spine like a snake. When awakened during meditation, it is supposed to travel up the spine activating each chakra as it surges upward. When the kundalini force hits the crown chakra, the person experiences enlightenment or Self-realization. This mystical current results in the person knowing himself to be God. That is why kundalini is sometimes referred to as the divine energy. According to New Age proponents, all meditative methods involve energy and power, and the greater the power, the greater the experience.
Basically, what all energy healing entails is opening up the chakras through meditation or transferring the kundalini power from someone already attuned to it. (FMSC, pp. 76-77).
While Reiki is clearly a "spiritual" practice, one involving New Age components, efforts to convince Christians, along with mainstream society, that Reiki is legitimate, religiously neutral (a person from any religion can practice it) and safe are being made. In an article titled "Explaining Reiki to Christians," William Lee Rand tells readers to visit a website called Reiki for Christians. The website says that even Jesus practiced this kind of energy healing and suggests that we can become more compassionate if we practice Reiki.
Ray Yungen explains the "power" that is behind Reiki and how even children are being introduced to it:
"One practitioner describes the [Reiki] experience in the following way:
When doing it, I become a channel through which this force, this juice of the universe, comes pouring from my palms into the body of the person I am touching, sometimes lightly, almost imperceptibly, sometimes in famished sucking drafts. I get it even as I'm giving it. It surrounds the two of us, patient and practitioner.2
"One obtains this power to perform Reiki by being attuned by a Reiki master. This is done in four sessions in which the master activates the chakras, creating an open channel for the energy. The attunement process is not made known for general information, but is held in secrecy for only those being initiated. . . .
"New Age teaching is that once someone is attuned he or she can never lose the power; it is for life. Even distance is not a barrier for the Reiki energy, for the channeler may engage in something called absentee healing, in which the energy is sent over long distances, even thousands of miles. One master relates:
Just by having the name or an object of the person or perhaps even a picture in your hand, you can send Reiki to them to wherever they are in the world.3
"What Reiki is really about is using this power to transform others into New Age consciousness. As one Reiki leader states:
[I]t also makes a level of spiritual transformation available to non-meditators, that is usually reserved for those with a meditative path.4
"Statements like this reveal that Reiki is in line with all the other New Age transformation efforts. It changes the way people perceive reality. Most practitioners acknowledge the truth of this. A German Reiki channeler makes this comment:
It frequently happens that patients will come into contact with new ideas after a few Reiki treatments. Some will start doing yoga or autogenous training or start to meditate or practise [sic] some other kind of spiritual method. . . .
Fundamental changes will set in and new things will start to develop. You will find it easier to cast off old, outlived structures and you will notice that you are being led and guided more and more.5
"What concerns me is that Reiki apparently can be combined with regular massage techniques without the recipient even knowing it. A letter in the Reiki Journal reveals:
Reiki is a whole new experience when used in my massage therapy practice. Massage, I thought, would be an excellent tool to spread the radiance of this universal energy and a client would benefit and really not realize what a wonderful growth was happening in his or her being .6
"Of all the New Age practices and modalities, Reiki holds the title to being the most intriguing and perhaps eerie one. This is brought out in the following observations made by one of the leading Reiki masters in the country. He reveals:
When I looked psychically at the energy, I could often see it as thousands of small particles of light, like "corpuscles" filled with radiant Reiki energy flowing through me and out of my hands. It was as though these Reiki "corpuscles" of light had a purpose and intelligence.7
"Since Reiki is not something taught intellectually even children can be brought into it. In one Reiki magazine, I found an ad that was offering aChildren's Reiki Handbook: A Guide to Energy Healing for Kids. The book is described as a 'guide that provides kids with what they need to prepare for their first Reiki Attunement.'"8 (from FMSC, Ray Yungen, chapter 6)
If you or someone you know will be staying in a hospital anytime soon, it would be a good idea to tell your doctor and nurses that you do not want Reiki performed on you during your stay.
William Lee Rand says that there are over 1 million people in the US alone now practicing Reiki.9 This is not something that should be taken lightly. Sooner or later, you or family members will come across Reiki. And the results could be detrimental.

from http://www.lighthousetrailsresearch.com/
According to an article written by the "guru" of Reiki, William Lee Rand, the popularity of Reiki (and other energy healing techniques) is growing by leaps and bounds and is becoming common in many US hospitals. "At hospitals and clinics across America, Reiki is beginning to gain acceptance as a meaningful and cost-effective way to improve patient care," Rand explains. "Personal interviews conducted with medical professionals corroborate this view," (1) he adds.
Rand says that the general public is "turning with ever-increasing interest to complementary health care, including Reiki," and according to one study, one in every three Americans has used this type of "care." Another survey showed that "1.2 million adults and 161,000 children in the U.S. received one or more energy healing sessions such as Reiki."
For those who understand the nature of Reiki and other energy healing methods (e.g: therapeutic touch, healing touch, quantum touch, Pranic healing, and Brennan Healing Science), these figures are alarming.
Researcher Ray Yungen explains that energy healing "is a force or energy pouring out of the practitioner's hands into the client or subject. This energy always has a spiritual component and is supposed to alleviate a variety of ills and problems" (For Many Shall Come in My Name, p. 53). Yungen describes the nature of energy healing:
Occultists [i.e., New Agers] believe that man has more than one body, that there are other invisible bodies superimposed on the physical body. They refer to one of these as the etheric body and believe there lies within it energy centers called chakras (pronounced shock-ras). The term chakra means whirling wheel in Sanskrit, the ancient Hindu language. They were seen by those with clairvoyant powers as spinning balls of psychic energy. It is taught that there are seven chakras, which start at the base of the spine and end at the crown chakra at the top of the head.
Each chakra is supposed to have a different function corresponding to certain levels of awareness. The chakras act as conduits or conductors for what is called kundalini or serpent energy. They say this force lies coiled but dormant at the base of the spine like a snake. When awakened during meditation, it is supposed to travel up the spine activating each chakra as it surges upward. When the kundalini force hits the crown chakra, the person experiences enlightenment or Self-realization. This mystical current results in the person knowing himself to be God. That is why kundalini is sometimes referred to as the divine energy. According to New Age proponents, all meditative methods involve energy and power, and the greater the power, the greater the experience.
Basically, what all energy healing entails is opening up the chakras through meditation or transferring the kundalini power from someone already attuned to it. (FMSC, pp. 76-77).

Economic Collapse Near?
The Economic Collapse Blog (http://www.theeconomiccollapseblog.com/) had a great post detailing many of the disturbing signs that America's, and the world's econom[ies] is very near collapse. This post is free for sharing, so I thought I'd re-post it here.
********
Tipping Point: 25 Signs That The Coming Financial Collapse Is Now Closer Than Ever
The financial collapse that so many of us have been anticipating is seemingly closer then ever. Over the past several weeks, there have been a host of ominous signs for the U.S. economy. Yields on U.S. Treasuries have moved up rapidly and Moody's is publicly warning that it may have to cut the rating on U.S. government debt soon. Mortgage rates are also moving up aggressively. The euro and the U.S. dollar both look incredibly shaky. Jobs continue to be shipped out of the United States at a blistering pace as our politicians stand by and do nothing. Confidence in U.S. government debt around the globe continues to decline. State and local governments that are drowning in debt across the United States are savagely cutting back on even essential social services and are coming up with increasingly "creative" ways of getting more money out of all of us. Meanwhile, tremor after tremor continues to strike the world financial system. So does this mean that we have almost reached a tipping point? Is the world on the verge of a major financial collapse?
Let's hope not, but with each passing week the financial news just seems to get eve worse. Not only is U.S. government debt spinning wildly toward a breaking point, but many U.S. states (such as California) are in such horrific financial condition that they are beginning to resemble banana republics.
But it is not just the United States that is in trouble. Nightmarish debt problems in Greece, Spain, Portugal, Ireland, Italy, Belgium and several other European nations threaten to crash the euro at any time. In fact, many economists are now openly debating which will collapse first - the euro or the U.S. dollar.
Sadly, this is the inevitable result of constructing a global financial system on debt. All debt bubbles eventually collapse. Currently we are living in the biggest debt bubble in the history of the world, and when this one bursts it is going to be a disaster of truly historic proportions.
So will we reach a tipping point soon? Well, the following are 25 signs that the financial collapse is rapidly getting closer....
#1 The official U.S. unemployment rate has not been beneath 9 percent since April 2009.
#2 According to the U.S. Census Bureau, there are currently 6.3 million vacant homes in the United States that are either for sale or for rent.
#3 It is being projected that the U.S. trade deficit with China could hit 270 billion dollars for the entire year of 2010.
#4 Back in 2000, 7.2 percent of blue collar workers were either unemployed or underemployed. Today that figure is up to 19.5 percent.
#5 The Chinese government has accumulated approximately $2.65 trillion in total foreign exchange reserves. They have drained this wealth from the economies of other nations (such as the United States) and instead of reinvesting all of it they are just sitting on much of it. This is creating tremendous imbalances in the global economy.
#6 Since the year 2000, we have lost 10% of our middle class jobs. In the year 2000 there were approximately 72 million middle class jobs in the United States but today there are only about 65 million middle class jobs.
#7 The United States now employs about the same number of people in manufacturing as it did back in 1940. Considering the fact that we had 132 million people living in this country in 1940 and that we have well over 300 million people living in this country today, that is a very sobering statistic.
#8 According to CoreLogic, U.S. housing prices have now declined for three months in a row.
#9 The average rate on a 30 year fixed rate mortgage soared 11 basis points just this past week. As mortgage rates continue to push higher it is going to make it even more difficult for American families to afford homes.
#10 22.5 percent of all residential mortgages in the United States were in negative equity as of the end of the third quarter of 2010.
#11 The U.S. monetary base has more than doubled since the beginning of the most recent recession.
#12 U.S. Treasury yields have been rising steadily during the 4th quarter of 2010 and recently hit a six-month high.
#13 Incoming governor Jerry Brown is scrambling to find $29 billion more to cut from the California state budget. The following quote from Brown about the desperate condition of California state finances is not going to do much to inspire confidence in California's financial situation around the globe....
"We've been living in fantasy land. It is much worse than I thought. I'm shocked."
#14 24.3 percent of the residents of El Centro, California are currently unemployed.
#15 The average home in Merced, California has declined in value by 63 percent over the past four years.
#16 Detroit Mayor Dave Bing has come up with a new way to save money. He wants to cut 20 percent of Detroit off from essential social services such as road repairs, police patrols, functioning street lights and garbage collection.
#17 The second most dangerous city in the United States - Camden, New Jersey - is about to lay off about half its police in a desperate attempt to save money.
#18 In 2010, 55 percent of Americans between the ages of 60 and 64 were in the labor market. Ten years ago, that number was just 47 percent. More older Americans than ever find that they have to keep working just to survive.
#19 Back in 1998, the United States had 25 percent of the world’s high-tech export market and China had just 10 percent. Ten years later, the United States had less than 15 percent and China's share had soared to 20 percent.
#20 The U.S. government budget deficit increased to a whopping $150.4 billion last month, which represented the biggest November budget deficit on record.
#21 The U.S. government is somehow going to have to roll over existing debt and finance new debt that is equivalent to 27.8 percent of GDP in 2011.
#22 The United States had been the leading consumer of energy on the globe for about 100 years, but this past summer China took over the number one spot.
#23 According to an absolutely stunning new poll, 40 percent of all U.S. doctors plan to bail out of the profession over the next three years.
#24 As 2007 began, there were just over 1 million Americans that had been unemployed for half a year or longer. Today, there are over 6 million Americans that have been unemployed for half a year or longer.
#25 All over the United States, local governments have begun instituting "police response fees". For example, New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg has come up with a plan under which a fee of $365 would be charged if police are called to respond to an automobile accident where no injuries are involved. If there are injuries as a result of the crash that is going to cost extra.
