Economics is alleged to be a “science,” but if it is, it’s a very obscure science. Much of whatever knowledge economics provides is almost incomprehensible. Much of what can be understood is government propaganda (lies).
Nevertheless, if we can’t learn “the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth” from economics, we can still learn some truth.
One means of discerning truth is by observing “coincidences”. Some people deny the existence of innocent “coincidences”. I don’t. Sometimes one person or group just happens to do something that another group or person also does at virtually the same time. There might seem to be a correlation or even a conspiracy between the two groups–but, in fact, there’s merely an innocent “coincidence”.
However, I also don’t deny that sometimes two seemingly disparate persons or groups perform virtually identical acts at virtually the same time based on a mutual agreement to do so. Their similar acts might seem “coincidental,” but they are actually evidence of the two persons/groups working in concert.
When we see two powerful but seemingly separate groups or entities performing the same act simultaneously, we can suspect that something major is about to happen.
