Straight Talk From Ross Perot
Jun 18th, 2008 by Don Ray
If you are a US citizen, then there is information I think you should digest, especially with the coming election not that far off. I was lucky enough to spend my last 31 year of employment working for companies that were created by Ross Perot.
One of the things I always felt about Ross was that he was one of the most patriotic people I ever knew. Ross made a couple runs at the office of Presidency. I can still remember his charts and words of warning about NAFTA creating a large sucking sound.
Ross is not in the race this year, but I am glad to see that he is still providing some good old “straight talk”. The issues that he is raising are the issues that should be on everyone’s minds. He has started a website called Perot Charts.
There is an introductory video and an automated presentation. The presentation has an audio tract explaining each of the 35 charts. This is not some flowery, cutesy presentation. This is a hard hitting presentation that should enlighten you as well as send chills down your spine. I encourage you to take a seat and spend a little time absorbing the information on Perot Charts.
Hi Don:
Even though I’m not a U.S. citizen I can see the value of Perot Charts. Panama’s economy is very closely tied with with that of the U.S. There is a saying here that says more or less: “When the the United States coughs Panama suffers from pneumonia.”
We’re already experiencing the weakening of the U.S. dollar against the euro, and the U.S. national debt has gone through the ceiling. Since Panama has no currency of its own, a weak dollar will also affect our economic performance.
I’ll take a close look at Mr. Ross’ information.

Hi Omar. It is a sobering presentation. Thanks for dropping in.
Don,
Google the David Walker, the former Comptroller General in charge of the GAO. He has been warning the Gov. for years of the pending financial crisis.

It does no good to warn the government. The government is the problem. You have to educate the masses. Only if they understand and believe, will they put pressure to change.
Don,
Sorry for not telling you, David Walker also went across the county giving interviews and public speaking engagements.
Kevin
Well sorry I never heard of him. Maybe Perot’s name will get more attention. Let’s hope so.
Don,
A little must read pdf put out by the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis.
It’s about countries going broke.

Hola Don Ray,
Good work, good reading. Ross Perot is a true Patriot. I suggest you also go to the Panama-Guide article of June 16 entitled “Important Changes to US Tax Laaw will Affect Expats(Must Read)”
We are all going to need lawyers and accountants to deal with these issues.
Keep up the good work.

Hi Shrader. I have seen the article in Panama Guide and I think it is misleading. SGG has made comments, related to that article, on some of the Yahoo groups, and I tend to believe her more than DW’s article.
