Ann Barnhardt closed her brokerage firm and submitted a damning letter as to why. She has been interviewed by Jim Puplava and provided a “pull-no-punches interview. Here is an excerpt of what she said:
We are now living in a lawless, Marxist, Communist, usurped, what used to be a representative republic but is no more. This is no longer a nation of laws. This has now transformed into a nation of men. It doesn’t matter what crime you commit. In the case of Jon Corzine, this man has stolen in excess of a billion dollars. I think by the time it is all panned out it is going to be closer to $3 billion of customer funds that he stole. Why did he do it? Is he stupid? Well, of course he’s not stupid. This is a former head of Goldman Sachs. This man doesn’t have a low IQ per se. Why in the world would a man wake up in the morning one day and say you know what, I think I am going to steal all the customer seg funds in this FCM that I’m running, which is the biggest FCM in the country. Yeah, that sounds like a good plan. No. Why would a man like that even engage in a nefarious plot like this? Because he knew going into it he could get away with it. And the reason he could get away with it is he is in tight with the Obama regime. He is one of Obama’s highest fundraisers. Earlier this year Jon Corzine had a fundraiser dinner at his New York City apartment for Barack Obama where it was charged at $35,000 a plate. Okay? He bundled high six figures for Obama in one evening! He is a crony of the regime. This is Marxist Communism. There is no rule of law. And these people, these poor MF customers are just sitting out here helpless to do anything because there is no law enforcement because this is no longer a nation of laws. The rule of law no longer exists. There is no longer justice in this nation. And no nation, no culture, no society can survive if there isn’t a foundation of justice. That is why we are teetering on the precipice of collapse and I foresee civil war coming within the next several years.

Wow. her comments echo mine EXACTLY. Why do you think gun sales are at record levels? Why are food storage facilities running out? People who are paying attention KNOW we are on the brink of tyranny. We are a lawless nation replaced by legal relativism where the law is no longer blind and impartial but biased and unequal. Black Panthers are free to intimidate. Armed foreign invaders are given more protection than citizens. Certain businesses must abide by the law while 2000+ don’t (Obamacare waivers). Hundreds of years of contract law shattered with the illegal take over of GM. The gov’t can now tell us we MUST buy health insurance, Chevy Volts, Progressive car insurance, etc. We are a LAWLESS nation, and truly on the precipice. I have been preparing for three years now. I suggest others do the same.
Wow. A civil war. That is worst case scenario but it may end up being the case. In the meantime, all we can do is cry … or laugh. I suggested on my blog that Corzine gave a Steve Martin response:
