They are a product of 'agora', which makes me a little suspicious
They want a lot of $$ for what looks like a lot of info, but I would reather hear some reviews before paying or even ripping from a torrent site......[not available yet that I have found]

Would appreciate what anyone out there has to say about this latest attempt to seperate me from my $$ for info that I already know or can access on the internet for free.

Probably.

Promotional article
The guest lineup for “The Fall of America and the Western World” is impressive:
David Icke -- Doug Casey -- Dr. Paul Craig Roberts -- Professor Mark Crispin Miller -- Joseph Farah
Naomi Wolf -- Alex Jones -- Mickey Z -- David McAlvany -- Doug McIntyre -- G. Edward Griffin -- Ken Klein
===============================================================
They seem to believe that if they say "Bakken, Brazil, offshore, tar sands, technology" enough times in a row, it will make $100-a-barrel oil go away.

Based on Doug Casey (standard long term uber-doomer gold bug fare) being in the list of contributors, I'd suggest getting books like "Atlas Shrugged" by Ayn Rand for political insight, "The Rise and Fall of the Roman Empire" for historical / parallels insight, and keeping up with news flow from various sources and using your brain.

If this costs lots of money, I would only invest in it if it got consistently worthy reviews.

Who would want more of this deranged and cockeyed drivel after the last 3 decades of their triumphalism including presiding over the rise of "red in tooth and claw" "Western" free markets and wide spread rigging of the books? The quicker we can get to real socialism which acts to free the common man from servitude and bondage, the better.

Don't waste a cent on this crap. Arm yourself with clear and consistent knowledge, available for free here:

The communist world view is precisely that...the WORLD. You no more own any part of this planet than do I, and only enforce your position by force, and only for the duration of your mortal tenure, both as an individual and a system. Time is not on your side and you must vacate this planet for the new order in due course. This must happen as surely as feudalism collapsed despite vigorous efforts to delay said outcome.

And you are occupying a part of this planet subject to these forces of change notwithstanding your sense of entitlement.
