Thanks for the links. I saw that one of the fans aptly described the official video as an apocalyptic death party. The next single to be released will be “The End of the World”. It looks like they put together a Pink Floyd style concept album. I really liked the Catalyst when I first heard it played but it seems like they are playing a dance remix style version on the local stations now which I don't really like(of course it might have been this version all along). But this does seem to be a departure for LP. Its more mature version with deeper meanings and musical structure. LP was alway more of a saccarine style band. A nice musical style on the surface but lacking anything substantial within. There was an indie station here in SoCal that refused to play Linkin Park because they didn't feel their work was substantial. And I don't believe they wrote the lyrics or even maybe the music. The lyrics are just too advanced with cryptic meanings and the music has developed texture as well. CD sales have completely fallen through the floor the last few years but this album definitely seems to have some substantial muscle advancing and promoting it. LP world-premieres the live version of the song on September 12 (a Sunday) at the Mtv Music Awards. So watch anything from September 12 to 14 and thereafter as a possible ritual date extending probably to 24th premiere of Money Never Sleeps.
From what I understand, this will be phased in. Phase 1 is making it much easier (optional) to buy Tbills or annuities in your 401k/403b/IRA. This will probably get passed after the next crash, so people will WANT to “protect” their savings. (funny… it's being brought up in sept, just about when cycles say there should be a crash). With annuities, you cannot “lose” money (except due to inflation). Phase 2, is when the govt starts to run out of buyers for tbills. Another crisis will hit that cannot be funded, and then 401k/403b/IRAs will be forced to buy tbills/annuities. Somewhere in there, I'm sure there will be a govt mandate to start a 401k/403b/IRA. If foreigners won't buy treasuries, the govt will milk its own citizens for what little we do have saved.
Gecko, thank you very much for the great song you brought up! The music is fantastic but I'm not an expert in sounds to analyze it. The video on the other hand is chuck full of very relevant reference images. The same goes for the text. Red is correct, they might not know what fore-knowledge they are indeed reflecting but reflecting nonetheless. Check their fan page explanation of the song's meaning (http://www.linkinpark.com/forum/topics/what-is-…). Like any explanation it is bland and devoid of life. What they are actually showing and resonating in the video has much more powerful message. So powerful I wouldn't be surprised if they “precog-ged” the actual date.
I know many people probably hate the stock newsletter teasers from Agora Financial, but their newsletters are very thoughtful, and even have contradictory views within the groups of newsletters. They also usually do good fact checking, and put forth thoughtful ideas that are more based on facts than the mainstream who's drinking the kool-aid!

I've heard 'buy fear' – but right now I'm too fearful to buy fear
For your company 401k, will this be optional? Will they try to confiscate our 401K savings – can they.
