Budget Deficit Exploding Out of Control - John Williams

By Greg Hunter: Economist John Williams says don’t be fooled by the new highs on the Dow.  Williams contends, “The economy is still in serious trouble.  The banking system is still in serious trouble.  The budget deficit is exploding out of control.”  Williams thinks the ongoing banking crisis in Cyprus has global implications.  Williams says, “You have a precedence set in Cyprus that they can seize the funds.  They will not guarantee all deposits.  If that’s the case, you may have a much worse crisis than you had back in 2008.”  Williams adds, “The big problem is the government is insolvent in the long term.”  Williams says the U.S. dollar could start selling off in May because of a deadlock in Congress on the budget.  Williams predicts, “The global markets are looking for the U.S. to address its long term sovereign solvency issues.  That’s not going to happen. . . .  In response, it’s going to be off to the races with a dollar sell-off.  That could be the trigger for the early stages of hyperinflation.”  Join Greg Hunter as he goes One-on-One with John Williams of Shadowstats.com.   Source
