This article comes from what I believe is the best financial site on the internet. Its a list of predictions for what the worst case scenario will look like in 2012.

I think that the author’s timeline is probably off by a few years, but if we do not change our course, every single prediction in this article will come true within the next 10-15, and possibly sooner.

The Federal Reserve was established in 1913 and has never been subjected to a government or independent audit. The Federal Reserve controls the Nation’s money supply and has the power to print new money as it sees fit. It also controls interest rates, and therefore has a great deal of influence (to say the least) on our economy....
