The headlines and news reports talk about a burgeoning economy with more jobs added all the time and increasing incomes to boot. But under the surface there are many problems, such as geometrically increasing debt, increasing population, scarce resources and increasing global tensions. While the death of a supposed Muslim Brotherhood Washington Post reporter at the hands of the Saudis is reason for concern, many other more important issues are getting the cold shoulder. Count upon the news media to never give you the true story. Chris Martenson has the talent to get to the story beyond the headlines.
