Predictions for 2014

Every year-end a group of friends make five predictions for the ensuing year.  Last year the only prediction of mine that came true was that China would annex territory ... which it has ... laying claim to many islands that were previously part of Japan. Needless to say, I didn't win. This year I will not preview my five primary predictions as this would spoil our New Year's Eve game. But here are my secondary predictions that don't count toward winning this contest:

-        U.S. stock market will NOT advance by year end

-        Massive student loan meltdown … taxpayer bailout

-        Massive healthcare meltdown … taxpayer bailout

-        More big government by Obama fiat

-        Russia effectively annexes Ukraine … goes for others

-        Impeachment process begins for Obama

-        Inflation up more than 4%
