That was a quote I picked up from the recently-posted trailer for a documentary called Collapse, which features the ideas of Michael Ruppert, an independent journalist who predicted the current financial crisis in his newsletter From the Wilderness. The movie opens in theaters Nov. 6, 2009.
From the trailer I picked up an interesting quote from Ruppert in the movie:
It’s not that Bernie Maddof was a pyramid scheme. The whole economy is a pyramid scheme.
The mortal blow to human industrialized civilization will happen when oil prices spike and nobody can afford to buy that oil, and everything will just shut down.
Watch the trailer here:
