America for Sale- Petrodollars Snatch up Foreclosures as More Americans Move into Tent Cities

Homeless encampments dubbed "tent cities" are springing up across the US, partly in response to soaring numbers of home repossessions, the credit crunch and rising unemployment, according to a report.

Today I spoke with a Real Estate broker friend in central Florida whose name I will keep confidential, I asked how he was doing during the real estate slump. He replied "What slump I am busier than a one arm paper hanger!"

"How so" I asked to which he replied.

"I got a group of investors from the middle east awash with petrodollars that are buying up the foreclosures as fast as I can get them."

Apparently the time has come for the public to begin to give more than idle thought to this crisis that threatens to literally remake the entire structure of this nation and the world

Who will speak for us?

The short answer is "no one" because we have chosen to abstain from speaking for ourselves. As a result; the government no longer fears the people; so the people having chosen not to have a voice, are increasingly used and abused to further the takeover that has now become impossible to escape.

Yeah, tent cities are something that are real, but are being largely swept under the rug by the silly politics of the oil/war/corpgov/anti-human parties. But, since tent cities are real and since a lot of people do live in them
