The biggest financial crash in history will happen in 2019

[GuyGadebois]

Sales.
The good joke of good deals.
Maybe at the merchants who profit by multiplying the prices by 5 or 10.
At discount that I have been from the start, they advertise a so-called recommended retail price as a reference price, what a mess.
It's the same for black friday and cyber monday.
Prices are inflated before.
When a trader charges the right price, there is nothing at all ...

I have to replace my TV (15 years old) which is showing signs of weakness. If I compare the list prices and the offers, there is little chance that I will be had.
The problem with sales, when it comes to clothing, is that brands make specific models of lower quality but with the same appearance as the usual article, which means that in the end we overpaid a dung!

The sales are unsold items from the previous year that cannot be sold below the purchase price.
It is highly regulated.
For tips: http://www.dealabs.com this is noted by the participants. No solar panels or wind turbines and even fewer hydro turbines, but everything else is there

I was going to say it...

Guy, from a certain point of view, they are the ones who invented zero.
And who says crack says zero to the bank. Not cool at all.

I prefer the Incas (no it is the Mayans in fact), count in multiples of 20. But that's another story

it’s American science and catastrophist fiction. It would only make a few thousand, perhaps, victims, and more.

Well let's see ... what are you basing yourself on to say this kind of "thing"?

On the same lack of bases which would affirm the opposite. It is the continuity of the vaccine myth where people are held, by burns, the populations frightened by some flu or H1N1. But it wants to take the effects for causes!
The myth of reinforced viral strains is a fantasy precisely because despite the tinkering that took place in previous decades (the famous biological threat supposed to be worse than the atomic bomb), this has always only caused a few victims, no more than a few thousand and without special treatment otherwise humanity would have already disappeared, according to current beliefs.

Phew you reassure me!

No more, no less, than all causes of death. Death by accident, death by suicide, death by excess of all kinds. Official medical statistics keep track of everything that causes death and there are very few people now who die from wear and tear on the machine which stops working without any real pathological cause.

In 1979, in Sverdlovsk, in the former Soviet Union, accidental leaks of aerosolized coal spores from a military microbiology installation caused 79 cases of infection, 68 of which were fatal, thus demonstrating the lethal power of coal in aerosols. Most of our knowledge of the deadly dangers of anthrax in humans comes from the Sverdlovsk accident.

whose:

No cases of anthrax had been reported in the United States since 1978 until the one recently discovered in Florida; a unique case that was enough to create panic.

68 out of 79 ... "and again" ...

But not hundreds of thousands or millions of deaths. A simple plane crash does the same, if not more, or even natural disasters.
The real problem is not the toxic product itself, but the much more dramatic fear and panic of the crowds.

The use for military purposes of reinforced viral strains simply did not happen that's all ... and fortunately.
The peculiarity of the post-2000 period is that from now on what was reserved for military laboratories of the superpowers can be implemented and for a limited budget by what should be called almost amateurs, as demonstrated by two scientists Canadian with the reconstruction for 100 000 $ of smallpox with 100% legal material.

Extract from the report | An example would be to use CRISPR to create viruses that could cut, modify, turn off, or activate a gene, and thereby affect important cellular function. A well-executed and planned attack may remain invisible for days or weeks.

These hypotheses still require bringing together complex skills. However, this technology is reputed to be simple to implement, and it is already used by more than 3000 laboratories around the world. The risks of malicious use therefore seem high.

In France, the DGSI supervises doctoral students who work in genetics laboratories, explains Olivier Lepick:

"The intelligence services are watching the students because with the techniques of gene editing, their hijacking in the context of a terrorist drift is envisaged in a much more obvious way than what could have existed a few years ago."

Close monitoring which has already motivated refusals of student applications in the research laboratory.

So yes for the moment the official discourse tends to minimize the possibility of a weapon which would eradicate millions of people, but if we put the puzzle together we are forced to come to the conclusion that the accumulation of skills in this area coupled with the generalization of knowledge via information and communication technology will quickly lead us to a very serious risk in the decades to come.

The possibilities in terms of genetic tinkering are cold in the back, in addition to strengthening a strain it would also be possible to make viruses that would only affect a certain part of the population or to integrate neurotoxin strains etc ... etc ..so no this is not a scenario for selling vaccines because if necessary there will be no treatment.

Are you doing it on purpose or what? It was an accident that killed 68 out of 79 people. We are talking about a virus, not an airplane. If this kind of aerosol virus is as effective as a plane crash, there is cause for concern. I also point out that no panic ensued. You are delirious even more than usual ...

Experience clearly shows that the harmfulness sought through any invention is always easier to obtain (sometimes unintentionally!) Than a therapeutic effect ... Destroying has always been easier than repairing!

Yes it is a consequence of entropy, energy dissipation promotes destruction to the organization.

Let us also remember that from a social point of view this contemporary society has created a very large number of antagonisms likely to lead to terrorist groups of all kinds, social entropy in short.
In recent times the terrorist is the fruit of an ideological dichotomy *, it is a safe bet that the policy of the oxymoron based on do what i say but not what i do risk of rapidly emerging violent groups with significant skills who will work for chaos for ecological purposes (the youth of the markets for the climate seems well glued to the ingredient of this kind of future factions).


* Islamic terrorism is a textbook case: on the one hand young individuals from immigrant backgrounds weaned from cultural neo-liberalism (easy money, rap, violence) and on the other an idealized and fundamentalist Islam imported by imams from countries doped with petrodollars ...
Recall that O. Ben Laden was a product of the CIA and that the'' Ayatollah Khomeini wrote his "Islamic revolution" since Neauphle the castle in the ... Yvelines!
