I admit that I have no head for finances and can fit what I understand of our monetary system in a thimble with enough room to rattle it around.

Can you digest this for me, and explain what the charts mean? I can see some sharp differences beginning around the time of the economic meltdown, but I don't know enough to understand what it means.

It means a giant economic collapse is on the horizon. And if you ask some of the posters on here, anyone who warns against it is a traitor. Go figure.
