Behold a Black Horse: Economic Upheaval and Famine

by Chuck Missler

The third of the “Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse” brings inflation and famine on an unprecedented scale. What is the real cause of inflation? What are the real causes of famine? Most famines are the direct results of government’s deliberate decisions. Germany sank into the most severe hyperinflationary period in recorded history after printing 1.3 trillion marks: that translates to about 4 trillion in today’s dollars. Ironically, that is almost exactly the same amount of money the United States government has printed since 2008. What are the implications for us today? How can one use Bayes’ Theorem in “reverse probability”? (Can you form a hypothesis based on experience, common sense and whatever data are available; then test the hypothesis not by what has happened before, but by what comes after?) The theorem has proved its worth, such as in 2012 when it was used to successfully predict the outcome of the U.S. presidential election in all 50 states before the final vote counts were available.

Eye opening account

In this short but pivotal book, Chuck Missler tells us about the signs of the times. The black horse brings global poverty. Chuck masterfully shows how the stage is set for global economic collapse without making future predictions (a line too many writers take, but that exact time can only be known by God).

This little book is good for all to read. Even if you're not a Christian, this book summarizes world finance so well in an hours reading that it's worth your while.

Education in a nutshell

This book explains why education in this country is really indoctrination. It should be required reading in every college economics class because it explains reality in a simple language that the faux-educated can understand.

If you're wondering about the facts mentioned in this book, I was aware of them, having been educated in Catholic schools which were independent of the political nuances of public centers of "learning".

Well done, Mr. Missler!

excellent explanations of basic financial facts and history that should be obvious

The book reviews basic information and history that are immediately available in general for those who do even casual searches. The author draws wise conclusions by defining inflation as the deliberate overprinting of fiat money and revealing the flim flam that accompanies the hype. We are admonished to be aware of the devilish devices and tactics.

The Black Horseman

A very good and educational book. A lot about our government and the banking practices. Didn't have a clue. The four Horsemen shows themselves in our physical reality, not just supernatural.

Great book a must read

I absolutely love reading books written by Chuck Missler he sheds light on so many areas we know about but provides an in depth view on subjects. Truly he has done his homework.
