(1) Is the western economic collapse a real problem for the masses of humanity or is it just regional in nature and therefore not a problem for the majority of people?
(2) Will this collapse only affect the lower classes?
(3) Will the economic collapse eventually have a profound effect on your life and the lives of your children, or is this mostly happening to other people and their families?
(4) True or False: Wealth can just “disappear.”
(5) Is there a special ethnic group behind the purposeful draining of wealth from America and the other western countries, or is this just the result of a bunch of greedy white businessmen doing business as usual?
(6) True or False: Goldman-Sachs is typical of businesses owned and operated by greedy white men.
(7) True or False: It was a combination of luck and pluck that allowed Goldman Sachs to come out on top, it really could have been any company had the circumstances been different.
(8) Was the massive movement of wealth planned or was it simply a big accident?
(9) True or False: The type of person typically involved with these financial operations is of a caliber of genius so far above the normal IQ that the common man could never hope to understand the vast and intricate world of finance.
(10) True or False: The reason for the Byzantine complexity of the world of finance is that it must be this way for it to function effectively.
(11) True or False: The complexity of the financial world makes it considerably more difficult for those not directly involved with it to understand it.

(13) What might be the eventual outcome for white western culture if the collapse continues?
(14) True or False: The economy will eventually self-correct, allowing everything to return to the norm of the late twentieth century.
