Yesterday, I covered some of the big picture of the economy and where I think it’s going. Today, I will cover another lens on that, specifically surrounding precious metals. But first some new updates:

California is in state-wide shut down. I’m figuring out if my business can remain open. https://covid19.ca.gov/img/N-33-20.pdf

The USA has passed the H.R.6201 – Families First Coronavirus Response Act. I plan to read through all that and will report on my findings later. If you’re interested, here’s the full thing: https://www.congress.gov/bill/116th-congress/house-bill/6201

Also want to share one reply from yesterday regarding the bank run possibility. James sent this, “I live in East Kentucky, I was told that First National had to call the Fed Twice today for cash. I believe your correct.”

A business owner and CPA I know told me in Michigan, cash withdrawals are being limited to $500 per day.

This is tough work to know what to cover and what order. There is so much going on! Today is more on economics to show you one lens of how money is rigged far more than most people realize. From here I’ll be bouncing around to some other topics.

Banks control just about everything economic. This includes the banks behind The Federal Reserve, the IMF (International Monetary Fund), the World Bank and others. These are best thought of as associations…or cartels.

Remember the LIBOR Scandal? Here’s a quick synopsis. https://www.theguardian.com/business/2017/jan/18/libor-scandal-the-bankers-who-fixed-the-worlds-most-important-number

The following quotes come from The New Confessions of an Economic Hitman by John Perkins as he’s put it well. https://amzn.to/2UpJPhO

“The 2012 revelations around the London Interbank Offered Rate, or the Libor, demonstrated that Barclays, UBS, Rabobank, the Royal Bank of Scotland, and other international banks were capable of ruthlessly betraying the public trust. The Libor is used to calculate payments on hundreds of trillions of dollars’ worth of loans and other investments. It had been accepted as an objectively and mathematically derived benchmark for establishing interest rates. However, it now was revealed that the Libor had been illegally manipulated by the banks from 1991 until 2012. As a result, the bankers accumulated immeasurable sums of illicit profits. Once found guilty, the banks were fined more than $9 billion. As of this writing, only one UBS trader, and not a single bank officer, has been indicted.”

This is not the only grand conspiracy for crimes banks have engaged in. Perkins later writes:

“The financial world was shaken by another major scandal in 2014…Barclays, Citigroup, JPMorgan Chase, and the Royal Bank of Scotland pleaded guilty to rigging the price of foreign currencies and were fined more than $2.5 billion. Within a year these four banks, plus one other, UBS, would be fined an additional $1.6 billion, along with another $1.3 billion in the case of Barclays, to settle related claims. Since 2007, the banks had operated what some of their members referred to as ‘the Cartel.’ Among the emails and chat room conversations of individuals involved were found their own name for their group: the Bandits’ Club and the Mafia. US Attorney General Loretta Lynch described the banks’ foreign currency scheme as ‘a brazen display of collusion and foreign exchange rate market manipulation.’ She went on to call it a ‘breathtaking conspiracy.’”

They called themselves the cartel, so why shouldn’t we?

They engaged in conspiracy, yet we should dismiss anything else they might do as a crazy conspiracy theory?

Understand, when an organization is corrupted, people do not get to the top of such an organization without being corrupt themselves. The corrupt people keep good people out.

So now onto precious metals…

I’ve been bullish on silver for a long time. And I’ve had to be very patient in being so. Let us travel back in time to tell this story.

Back in 2010 or so I started converting some of my money from success in business into silver. In 2011 it topped out at $48. It fell from there and has traded around $14 to $20 since 2015.

Actually, the highest price of silver ever was $49.45 back in 1980. Tell me, what else had its highest price ever back in the 80’s?

Well it turns out that there was strong evidence of price suppression on silver by bankers. Here’s a synopsis and few articles covering that.

Several traders at J.P. Morgan chase were being tried and convicted of securities fraud in this field. https://sdbullion.com/blog/another-jpmorgan-silver-spoofing-ex-employee-pleads-guilty

They consistently say they were trained and told to do so by higher up people.

In fact, “In their indictment, the US Department of Justice labelled JP Morgan Chase’s ‘Metals Desk’ as a ‘criminal enterprise’.” https://www.adamseconomics.com/post/the-undeniable-manipulation-of-the-silver-market

Criminal enterprise. A cartel. A racket.

After the last crash, JPMorgan Chase essentially took over the silvers market from Bear Sterns. While they were manipulating the market being profitable in short selling, they were hoarding the biggest stash of physical silver ever seen. https://www.jmbullion.com/investing-guide/pricing-payments/who-owns-most-silver-bullion-today/

I caught wind of this and thought “do what the bankers do.” I had no power to stop them, but if they were doing that, I might as well do it too so that I could gain.

Just today it come out that senators were offloading stock based on January coronavirus briefings. Insider trading.

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8132245/GOP-senator-gave-dire-coronavirus-warning-heeled-constituents-Capitol-Hill-social-club.html

Clear cut case of insider trading. They’ll pay for it more than likely. (And who did they leak that information to as well…)

But think bigger for a second. Imagine you have power over a big portion of the market. Instead of insider trading a couple months before the catastrophe, you’re preparing a decade in advance. And you’re willing to commit crimes to do it, especially because you have lots of power and money to cover up the crimes.

So what is going on now in gold and silver?

Right now silver has crashed (along with everything else) down to around $12 per ounce.

That’s in the paper markets. Understand most trading of precious metals isn’t lugging heavy metals around but done by ETF’s (exchange traded funds), derivatives and more.

https://www.bullionstar.com/blogs/bullionstar/gold-shortages-price-of-physical-gold-decouples-from-paper-gold/

But go to any place selling actual physical silver. What do you see? 50% premiums give or take. An ounce of silver will cost you at least $20.

Physical silver is being snapped up at these prices that there are shortages and delays.

https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2020-03-18/gold-and-silver-prices-fall-despite-bullion-shortages-and-rising-premiums

That’s because the house of cards that is so much of our financial system is coming down.

It’s probably too late to get in on silver. But if you can, I’d be willing to bet its still worth it (no paper silver, physical only!).

The sad fact is that JPMorgan Chase, the people that seemed to be behind this crime, stand to benefit from it the most. Look at their history and you can find this is far from the only time they’ve engineered such things.

Making money during the good times and bad. That means they have the capability to seize even more control.

One theory. This means there is incentive to crash the economy further. To use your full weight and power to make things worse, in order to gain more money, power and control.

Another theory. The economy had to crash at some point. That is how our system works. Boom and bust. But here the blame goes on the coronavirus, not on the bankers.

Blood in the streets…

Misdirection.

In magic this is the deception of drawing attention to one thing in order to distract from another.

I do not know what is going on with the virus itself. I see compelling evidence on both sides. That this is not dangerous at all, little more than a flu that is being pumped up hysterically. On the other side is that this is a pandemic about to explode, even a weaponized virus, sure to kill many. (If I must pick, I’d say I’m leaning towards the former.)

In our information economy, the amount of noise generated is insane. Separating the noise from the true signal, is damn near impossible.

But what if the virus is really not the important part? What if that is all misdirection? The result of the virus, whatever the truth is behind that, is complete economic chaos. And here is where I think we should be looking more.

I’m not an economist. So take everything I say with a grain of salt. Look at the links I’m providing. Do your own research.

As everyone is aware of the stock market has crashed hard. Now the stock market is not the economy but one aspect of it.

Let’s think about the real economy. In quarantine, businesses are shutting down left and right. It’s only just begun. People are spending less. Unemployment is skyrocketing. Secretary of the Treasury Mnuchin said unemployment as high as 20%, but later walked back his comments saying we’re not going to let that happen. https://www.forbes.com/sites/sergeiklebnikov/2020/03/18/mnuchin-walks-back-comments-about-20-unemployment-were-not-going-to-let-that-happen/#7969b4667368

Meanwhile, the unemployment website crashed from all the applications. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/coronavirus-state-unemployment-websites-crash-applications-surge-n1162731

A neighbor told me they’re not even vetting the applications now. They’re simply letting them go through unchecked.

This means the very real economy is being impacted too.

I’m in ecommerce. I know a lot of ecommerce people many of whom are solely on Amazon. Amazon said they’re not taking shipments from vendors of non-essential goods. Think ripples of impact. (Or think viral economic spread outside the virus itself.) We still haven’t even seen the full impact from the earlier shut down of China. https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/markets/stocks/news/coronavirus-impact-a-long-shutdown-in-china-will-leave-a-mark-on-key-sectors/articleshow/74218270.cms

The government is promising to take care of everyone. (I’m not making an argument for or against socialism at this time. I’m saying that the result is that we’re much more there than ever before real soon.)

Mnuchin has promised “unlimited liquidity” from the Fed in order to accomplish this. https://www.fxstreet.com/news/us-treasury-sec-mnuchin-fed-and-treasury-working-to-provide-unlimited-liquidity-202003131316

Money is being pumped into the market at a blurring speed. Trillions already.  

https://moneymaven.io/mishtalk/economics/how-big-is-that-fed-liquidity-pump-1-5-trillion-or-5-trillion-rh-x70bQykeBf4mYdiaCrw

Again, remember 2008. We had billions going to banks that caused the problem in the first place.

Most people are not aware that for about half a year now, the Federal Reserve has been pumping money into the market with what are known as repo loans. As one person put it bailouts were occurring…just on the sly.

What’s Behind the Fed’s Bailout of the Repo Market?

The bubble was being inflated higher and higher, meaning that when it bursts it’s going to be magnitudes bigger than before.

Big companies have been spending all their money on stock buybacks to the tune of $4.5 trillion since 2012. This further enriched them at the time. Now, with no cash left they’re calling for the government to bail them out. After all they’re too big to fail. https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/after-blowing-45-trillion-buybacks-us-execs-demand-taxpayer-funded-bailouts-shareholders

This is not 2008. This is 1929.

(Or as James Corbett put it 1929 + 1984 + 9/11 which I’d admit is better and easier to understand than my equation.)

I have not seen the following in the news at all. But one of my alternative sources covered it. The Federal Reserve cut bank reserve requirements to zero! “As announced on March 15, 2020, the Board reduced reserve requirement ratios to zero percent effective March 26, 2020.  This action eliminated reserve requirements for all depository institutions.” https://www.federalreserve.gov/monetarypolicy/reservereq.htm

What does that mean? Please do correct me if I’m wrong, but I don’t believe this has ever been done before.

Our money is fiat, meaning fake. Created out of thin air. Banks essentially needed to keep some cash in reserves in a ratio around 1 to 10 for their loans outstanding. That reserve ratio is gone as of the 26^th.

What are the impacts of this? Again, I’m not sure. But I don’t think it is good!

People that I follow and have been predicting things correctly up to this point are saying a run on the banks is coming. We’ve even seen the first tell-tale signs that that may be occurring.

A New York bank ran out of $100’s as customers withdrew money. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8113389/NYC-bank-temporarily-runs-100-bills-customers-withdraw-cash-amid-Wall-Street-crash.html

This article discussing more withdrawals also points out that cash could carry the virus. This is important for what seems to be part of this agenda, the transition to digital currency which I’ll talk about later.

https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/stocks/americans-withdrawing-cash-atms-coronavirus-pandemic-bad-idea-germs-fdic-2020-3-1029013808

I’m sure you remember the panic of buying toilet paper? It’s been meme-central for weeks now on social media.

Were you caught unawares? Did you go to the store and you needed a normal amount of toilet paper only to find the shelves were bare and you wondered what the hell is going on?

That was then. This article even talks about how the run on toilet paper is like a run on banks. https://theconversation.com/a-toilet-paper-run-is-like-a-bank-run-the-economic-fixes-are-about-the-same-133065

I feel conflicted in writing this. Telling you a bank run is possibly coming is to cause you to want to get money out, which in turn is exacerbating or causative of the very problem that would best be avoided.

But you’ve chosen to read these emails. I’m telling you what I’m seeing.

I personally went to the bank yesterday to take out a few extra thousand dollars. I did not drain my accounts completely. I asked the teller how things were going. He told me it wasn’t busy. No one else was doing the same.

…At least not yet. Our economy is mostly digital. There are far too few actual dollars for all that money. If it happens it will happen fast.

The FDIC (Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation) appears to be saying that this is so that banks can loan out more money to people and businesses that need it without needing reserves in place. https://www.forbes.com/sites/antoinegara/2020/03/19/fdic-seeks-new-breathing-room-for-banks-to-help-small-businesses-survive-the-coronavirus/#661a167c5f45

In this video, MSNBC tried to answer the question “Is there any possibility that the FDIC won’t be able to deliver on insurance if the banks fail? What is the best way to keep the money safe?” The answer is basically we’re in uncharted territory so who knows?

https://www.msnbc.com/msnbc/watch/could-fdic-not-deliver-on-insurance-if-banks-fail-80717381617

I think I see two possible scenarios playing out.

One is that the government steps in big, big, big time. It makes the 2008-2009 bailouts look like small fries. Big companies that were part of the problem get tons of money of course. But maybe even average folks get money too. Understand that there are massive implications from this alone (hyperinflation?) and this seems to be the better of the two scenarios!

The other option is that everything they do is not enough. This bubble bursts hard. I shudder to think of the impacts.

I think that the chances this virus blows by us, and the economy bounces back are very, very slim. Again, I hope I am wrong, but I fear I am not.

“What do you mean a conspiracy theorist? So when I hear nightly on the news that maybe Russia is controlling the American elections and trying to prop Donald Trump up, are those conspiracy theories? When I hear that the corona virus is in fact under control and the market falls apart, is that a conspiracy theory? I mean where are we in history that conspiracy theorizing is a privilege of the people inside the institutional class. No. That’s incompetent. We have discovered conspiracies previously in the United States. COINTELPRO is probably the most disturbing conspiracy that we’ve found within the last 50 years. In fact, conspiracies happen, and you need to be able to go after them. So I think we should make a new rule. The next person who tries to use the epithet conspiracy theorist, we try to figure out what conspiracy theory they’ve been pushing, because frankly everybody inside the gated institutional narrative is hawking one conspiracy theory or the other. It’s time for this technique of trying to intimidate people by using that epithet to die.””

This was Eric Weinstein in this interview. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MpGxOR50sn4

He was talking specifically about the Jeffrey Epstein case, which I’d taken a huge interest in since before he was last arrested, and definitely before he “committed suicide”.

You know what could have been the most watched criminal case…period! The questions unanswered about royalty connections, presidential connections, intelligence connections that all of our media scarcely talked about.

Last year I read Conspiracy Theory in America by Lance deHaven-Smith. Here’s a few short excerpts from that:

“Officials in the Nixon administration did conspire to steal the 1972 presidential election. Officials in the Reagan White House did participate in a criminal scheme to sell arms to Iran and channel profits to the Contrast, a rebel arm in Nicaragua. The Bush-Cheney administration did collude to mislead Congress and the public about the strength of its evidence for Iraqi weapons of mass destruction. If some conspiracy theories are true, then it is nonsensical to dismiss all unsubstantiated suspicions of elite intrigue as false by definition.”

“A common mistake made by conspiracy deniers is to lump together a hodgepodge of speculations about government intrigue, declare them all “conspiracy theories,” and then, on the basis of the most improbable claims among them, argue that any and all unsubstantiated suspicions of elite political crimes are far-fetched fantastic destructive of public trust.”

“The Founders considered political power a corrupting influence that makes political conspiracies against the people’s interests and liberties almost inevitable…they also thought representative democracy was vulnerable to, in their language, ‘conspiracies against the people’s liberties’ by ‘perfidious public officials,’ and the ‘tyrannical designs’ by ‘oppressive factions.’”

It is PUBLICLY accepted now that the CIA overthrew the democratically elected leader in Iran back in the 50’s. Same with Arbenz in Guatemala. Massive propaganda in the news to help make it happen way back then. Why? Corporate powers. Oil. Land. Money. (And of course stopping communism.)

Yet, public acceptance of other coups isn’t there, even if there is lots of evidence. But that does it mean it didn’t happen? To talk about these things, does that automatically make me a crack-pot conspiracy theorist.

One more quote from Lance deHaven-Smith.

“The term ‘conspiracy theory’ did not exist as a phrase in everyday American conversation before 1964. The conspiracy-theory label entered the American lexicon of political speech as a catchall for criticism of the Warren Commission’s conclusion that President Kennedy was assassinated by a lone gunman with no assistance from, or foreknowledge by, any element of the United States government.”

You can find the document here. https://steemit.com/history/@thelastheretik/cia-coined-and-weaponized-the-label-conspiracy-theory

As the virus unfolds, this is a very difficult conversation to have without giving you lots of back story to understand that patterns exist.

They’re not isolated incidents, but in many cases, criminal organizations that do the same thing over and over again.

If you’ve read my Medical Monopoly Musings series you can see that with medicine. But that is just one cartel in action.

Just today my first episode with former Economic Hitman, John Perkins came out on my podcast. Good timing! https://healthsovereign.com/corporatocracy-conspiracies-with-economic-hit-man-john-perkins/

In that interview I pose a question that is important for today.

Can we trust the World Health Organization when we see the revolving door in operation there? Can we trust the United Nations? Can we trust the Red Cross when we see that with the catastrophe in Haiti that they raised half a billion dollars and built six homes?

I asked that in early February.

So the question I pose, was this an economic hit on us all?

Even if the epidemic is completely real and action needs to be taken will criminal agendas not be pushed further on.

Congress is working to pass a big bill. This looks like it includes money going to every American adult. But what else will be included in there?

Remember 2008? We gave billions to banks who caused the problem in the first place. I expect some big payouts to occur here too.

It is time to look into and discuss the conspiracies. I do not want to be talking about this stuff.

BUT I CAN’T STAY SILENT!

Stay safe,

Logan Christopher

I’ll start with a personal update. We are now under a “shelter” order here in Santa Cruz county, California, with at least six other nearby counties as well. If it’s not already where you are chances are this coming to you too.

https://apnews.com/a342998638cdccb56172a1663e8d6edf

https://patch.com/california/santacruz/coronavirus-shelter-place-issued-santa-cruz-county

A black swan is an event or occurrence that deviates beyond what is normally expected of a situation and is extremely difficult to predict. While current events may be a black swan for many people, it wasn’t for all.

Today I want to ask a big question…Why were we so unprepared for this? How could this crisis have been foreseen?

But it WAS. Specifically so, and thus far, almost exactly as it’s playing out.

Have you heard of Event 201 which occurred on October 18^th, 2019? http://www.centerforhealthsecurity.org/event201/scenario.html

“Event 201 simulates an outbreak of a novel zoonotic coronavirus transmitted from bats to pigs to people that eventually becomes efficiently transmissible from person to person, leading to a severe pandemic. The pathogen and the disease it causes are modeled largely on SARS, but it is more transmissible in the community setting by people with mild symptoms.”

They had the start from pigs in Brazil, rather than bats in China, but otherwise it’s almost exactly the same as what is occurring today. I recommend at the very least you watch the Highlight Reel on this page. http://www.centerforhealthsecurity.org/event201/videos.html

(I’m planning to watch through all the other videos on that page too but have not yet.)

Look, I do believe in coincidence. And definitely in synchronicity. But this leaves me with some questions…

The CDC was there. Specifically, Stephen Redd, MD, director of the CDC’s Office of Public Health Preparedness and Response. https://www.cdc.gov/media/spokesperson/redd/redd-P.pdf

I know a lot of people are blaming Trump for this situation. I agree he hasn’t handled it well. But to put all the focus on the orange man (as our media and people love to do) is to skip over the fact the one man does not make up the entire government.

An argument could certainly be made that this happened so close to events that we weren’t prepared for it. But this isn’t the first time exercises or “war games” such as this have been done. Dr. Redd was the “incident commander for the 2009 H1N1 pandemic response.” He’s been in this role for a while.

Where is the head of our preparedness and response now? Why has our response in the USA so horrible, when we foresaw almost this exact event occurring?

The CDC didn’t just seem inept, but actually looks like they’ve been striving to bumble up testing by trying to setup their own testing protocol which failed. https://www.propublica.org/article/cdc-coronavirus-covid-19-test

Why was the CDC sending out flawed test kits? https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/us-coronavirus-some-test-kits-shipped-to-states-are-flawed-cdc-says/ar-BBZWV1C

Caught unawares or striving to dampen our response?

Looking at history is always useful in circumstances such as this. Understand that the CDC does not have a good track record on testing. Remember the Swine Flu? We saw the CDC stop testing and counting cases, while reporting huge numbers. Investigative reporter Sharyl Attkisson found this out before she left CBS because of their clamp down on real journalism. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/swine-flu-cases-overestimated/

Meanwhile, our government is classifying top-level meetings regarding the virus. Why? What are they trying to hide?

Reuters reported this was “an unusual step that has restricted information and hampered the U.S. government’s response to the contagion.” https://www.reuters.com/article/us-health-coronavirus-secrecy-exclusive/exclusive-white-house-told-federal-health-agency-to-classify-coronavirus-deliberations-sources-idUSKBN20Y2LM

I highly, highly recommend reading this article by investigative journalist Whitney Webb. I started following her work surrounding the Jeffrey Epstein case a few months back as it goes deep. She’s good!

US Intel Agencies Played Unsettling Role in Classified and “9/11-like” Coronavirus Response Plan

(Remember it’s the same government handling this response as said Epstein killed himself because of the perfect storm of screw-ups. They’ll say the same thing about this pandemic soon enough.)

What Webb says is that our intelligence communities are playing a huge role in directing the emergency response.

Again, I ask why? Is this a health epidemic? Or is it an intelligence operation?

Look at these facts. Then you can more clearly see that they want this virus (whatever it’s true origin) to impact us in a big way. This was foreseen. We could have responded like South Korea did with great testing early on but instead we got caught with our pants down. It serves their agenda. We will see that unfold in real-time now.

Webb sums up, “The coming government response, the agencies largely responsible for crafting it and its classified nature deserve public scrutiny now, particularly given the federal government’s tendency to not let “a serious crisis to go to waste,” as former President Obama’s then-chief of staff Rahm Emanuel infamously said during the 2008 financial crisis. Indeed, during a time of panic — over a pandemic and over a simultaneous major economic downturn — concern over government overreach is warranted, particularly now given the involvement of intelligence agencies and the classification of planning for an explosion of domestic cases that the government believes is only weeks away.”

Once you see that possibility, you can then to ask where is this headed? You can make predictions with better accuracy.

You can see this playing out almost exactly as described in Event 201…as if according to plan. They talk about steps that are still to come in their videos though that will be dependent on how many deaths we start seeing. Watch. Be prepared.

P.S. Checkout this video about coronavirus from JP Sears. Very funny to help lighten the mood a bit! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XPpzHYKpndk

People are still underestimating this thing…

There is the virus itself. Understandably, some people believe this is all hype. After all, see past records as for media panic regarding ebola, swine flu, measles, SARS, etc, which amounted to nothing.

But understand that is just one layer of what is going on.

Regardless of whether or not things are overblown regarding the virus, the governments are taking this very, very, very, very seriously.

Apparently, even ISIS is cautioning their people. (I can’t tell if that is real or not…)

We’ve already entered into a zone of never-done-before-in-the-history-of-the-world things happening.

Full countries on quarantine.

A shakier stock market than the great depression.

And as of right now lock down across all the USA.

The virus is only one layer. To get a grasp of what is really going on you have to be looking at the economy and the government as well.

The equation of (9/11 + 2008)^X popped into my mind. That X is the exponential. I originally thought squared but recognized that the impact could be bigger even than that.

These were both USA based events, mostly, though they did have worldwide impacts. The USA is where I’m based. That’s what I’m familiar with. But obviously this is already a world-wide event that is far bigger.

Wrap your head around that.

This is insane and it is going to get far more so.

Remember how things for most people were normal at the start of March? By the end of this week, it likely will have escalated at least as much.

It’s already a world changing event, but it’s only just begun…

I’m making predictions. I hope I am wrong.

But I would say it is better to overestimate things and act based on that than to underestimate things and be caught unawares.

If you have not yet got a few weeks minimum of food then you’re in the latter group.

Again, the virus is one thing. The other layers are even more so. And these are going to compound on each other.

This isn’t to say you should panic. Panic won’t help. But fear is not necessarily a bad thing. It can be a motivating force. So use it to motivate you…but then let go of the fear so that you can think clearly.

Those preppers are sitting pretty right now, having thought that something like this was coming for however long of a time.

Our food systems are fragile. This could break things at least in certain areas. 

In upcoming updates I’m going to be pointing you at various news items, articles and more to help you understand what is going on.

Some of these will focus more of the virus and your health.

Some will focus on the economic impacts.

Some will focus on the government actions and inactions.

Some will be a bit of everything.

I think I’ll cover the big picture of each of those in order of what I see so far over the coming days.

If you have specific questions, concerns, or anything you’d like to share with me reply to the email and let me know.
