Mitchell’s laws:
●The more federal budgets are cut and taxes increased, the weaker an economy becomes.
●Austerity is the government’s method for widening the gap between rich and poor, which ultimately leads to civil disorder.
●Until the 99% understand the need for federal deficits, the upper 1% will rule.
●To survive long term, a monetarily non-sovereign government must have a positive balance of payments.
●Those, who do not understand the differences between Monetary Sovereignty and monetary non-sovereignty, do not understand economics.
●The penalty for ignorance is slavery.
●Everything in economics devolves to motive.

Last December we published Your handy recession predictors, which included a variety of recession predictors.

Here are simple graphs that seem to be the best predictors of all:

The FRED series, Total Credit Market Debt Owed by Domestic Nonfinancial Sectors – Federal Government, is now known as Federal Government; Credit Market Instruments; Liability.

Based on these graphs, let us ask ourselves four questions:

1. What does the federal government do in the years leading up to recessions?

2. What does the government do that cures recessions?

3. What is the government doing now?

4. Why?

You might show this to your federal government representatives, and ask them those questions.
