interesting new article from libertarian author Nelson Hultberg:

The Four New Horsemen of the Apocalypse are:

1) Keynesian monetary policy,
2) Demopublican political control,
3) the Pax Americana mindset, and
4) the Kondratieff Cycle.

The cycle is getting longer (70+ years instead of 60+) due to inflation, people living longer,
and other factors. According to current Kondratieff Cycle scholars, the down-trend of
the cycle (winter) is just starting and could last until 2010 to 2015.

I don't agree with everything in the article but the guy brings up some good points. He
is bullish on gold and believes some kind of PPT is affecting the markets, both of which
I don't agree with.

The Kondratieff Cycle. So this is what astrologers do during the day time.

I thought it was 54-60 years.

Either way, it is a static measurement of a dynamic phenomenon. There is much more to cycles than that.

Must be. My hair is standing on end ;-) ;-)

And I get criticized because I read Marx ... :rolleyes:
