June 17, 2009 By Douglas McIntosh If I had to describe myself in this moment of economic chaos, I would say I am the grizzled sergeant, war weary, caught in the zone of instinctive awareness that combat veterans have. In order to survive you become a detached, cynical professional. In the sense of college degrees I am a rank amateur. However, over the last decade I have called the economic sphere pretty well. Perhaps the timing has been off, but I have nailed the trends perfectly. It takes a while for a two inch garden hose to fill a swimming pool, but it will fill it. Likewise, the endless debt, credit and bubbles of the last 25 years are finally reaching critical mass. It is no longer a matter of whether we have an economic collapse. No it is a matter of the scope, the intensity and the social chaos that economic collapse causes. My moniker over at Tree of Liberty is Doomer Doug, so I know what I am talking about. In a phrase, it is not coming: it is here.
