Two interesting
infographics were published recently that make it so easy to see the decline of
the West, even a caveman can do it. Both of these infographics point to the
same conclusion: the west is living far beyond its means and is struggling
with pitifully anemic growth.
This is a long-term trend, and one that is only going to accelerate. Yet as
obvious as the indicators may be, few people will actually do anything about
it.

Just when you thought the seemingly endless rabbit hole of Wall Street-Washington corruption, cronyism, co-option, crime and kickbacks may have finally come to an end, here comes the House Ethic Committee to pronounce that no ethics breaches were found among House members in its investigation involving the scandal surrounding Countrywide "VIP loans" and the "Friends of Angelo." And in just doing so, the House effectively cleared itself of any wrongdoing and that's it, case closed - move along... Move along.

Fiscal cliff

Jamie Dupree | As the Senate returns to
work on Thursday morning and President Obama retuns early from a Christmas
vacation in Hawaii, the latest five day break from Washington, D.C. does not
seem to have produced any way forward on the tax and budget impasse known as
the fiscal cliff.

ran a $47.8 billion deficit in fiscal 2012 as the program brought in $725.429
billion in cash and paid $773.247 for benefits and overhead expenses, according

A
month ago, we showed
something disturbing: the weekly increase in savings deposits held at
Commercial banks soared by a record $132 billion, more than the comparable
surge during the Lehman Failure, the First Debt Ceiling Fiasco (not to be
confused with the upcoming second one), and the First Greek Insolvency. And
while there were certainly macro factors behind the move which usually
indicates a spike in risk-aversion (and at least in the old days was
accompanied by a plunge in stocks), a large reason for the surge was the
unexpected rotation of some $70 billion in savings deposits at Thrift
institutions leading to a combined increase in Savings accounts of some $60
billion. Moments ago the Fed released its weekly H.6 update where we find that
while the relentless increase in savings accounts at commercial banks has
continued, rising by another $70 billion in the past week, this time there was
no offsetting drop in Savings deposits at Thrift Institutions, which also
increased by $10.0 billion. The end result: an increase of $79.3
billion in total saving deposits at both commercial
banks and thrifts, or an amount that is only the third largest weekly jump ever
following the $102 billion surge following Lehman and the $92.4 billion
rotation into savings following the first US debt ceiling debacle and US
downgrade in August 2011.

The
common feature of the transformative technologies of the 20th and 21st
centuries is that they were one-offs that cannot be duplicated. What if
the engines of global growth that worked for 65 years (since 1945) have not
just stalled but broken down? The primary "engines" have
been productivity gains from industrialization, real estate development and
expansion of consumption based on the continual expansion of debt and
leverage--in short-hand, financialization. Doing more of what has
failed will only set up a grander failure as returns on all our
debt-based "investments" become ever more marginal and the return on
increasing complexity drops into negative territory. Once complexity yields
negative returns, the systems that depend on complexity quickly destabilize and
implode.

UPDATE: ES -7
after-hours from closing highs (McConnell-Off)
Equity
markets started the day off slowly but with confidence disappointing and Harry
Reid's name-calling, not even the arrival of the chosen one was enough to juice
anything but a minimal bounce in stocks. It looked like S&P 500 futures
(ES) were going to retest the flash-crash lows from last week but thanks to a
well-timed piece of news that Boehner will be in session on Sunday night (though
no accompanying notes on exactly what magical book of crap they will sign off -
or not - on) was enough to spur Johhny-5 and his friends into
algo-asm action. The initial jerk was perfectly to VWAP and the second
jerk took AAPL up to yesterday's closing VWAP. This strength dragged ES
higher - reconnecting with a less excited risk-asset market that had remained
flat from the day-session open. FX and vol were the main levers to
the upside with Treasuries less enamored - though HYG was lifted to fill
Monday's gap. Mitch McConnell spoiled the party a little into the
unchanged close.

It
appears that our
expectation for a 3:35 pm rumor was some 45 minutes too late. No sooner
than headlines crossed the wires that:
then
stocks ramped instantly to their VWAPs and beyond... efficient markets?
whocouldanode? This way at least, when nothing happens on Sunday night, as
nothing will (as it comes three days before Boehner's reelection),
the flashbacks to the TARP 1 vote will be front and center, but the good news
is that the downside will be limited by the limit down barrier in ES.

For
those who prefer to trade by looking the rear-view mirror, December was looking
like a bias-confirming 'Santa-Claus-Rally' month until just a few days ago. For
the past 15 years, S&P 500 futures have averaged a rather consistent trend
2% gain in December and in the week leading up to Christmas, the S&P was
holding up that plan at +2.6%; but now, sadly, the S&P is down for
the month (underperforming the average by around 250bps). Oh, well, we
hear there is a January effect to trade soon?

Those
who read our article on
this topic at this time last week should already know the answer to this
rhetorical question. Everyone else may be a little surprised to learn that at a
time when every Primary Dealer's sales desk has been pushing what
little is left of gullible investors into stocks because the "Great
rotation out of bonds and into stocks is our Top trade of 2013"
(source: [every sellside strategist]), just as these seem poised to
tumble in a recreation of the August 2011 debt ceiling fiasco (as we have been
warning for months), their holdings of these same boring old Treasurys once
again rose in the latest week ending December 19, increasing by another
$10 billion, and hit a fresh all time gross high of $146 billion.
Judging by what is increasingly a rotation out of stocks and into bonds,
the smart money - correction the only money remaining - appears positioned
correctly once again.
Remember: always do what
they do, not what they say.

Update: the BLS
disclosed that it had to estimate the data for 19 states due to
holiday office closures. Good enough for Ministry of Truth work.
In
what is a traditional slowdown to the layoffs season in the week leading into
Christmas, initial unemployment claims, dropped from an upward revised 362K
(was 361K) to 350K, below a consensus print of 360K, and the lowest
seasonally-adjusted number in nearly 5 years. The boost, of course, was all in
the ARIMA X-12 seasonal adjustments, as the not seasonally adjusted number rose
by 39K to 441K. Although in a world in which only Case-Shiller says to use its
Non-Seasonally Adjusted print as a far more accurate indicator of concurrent
data, nobody cares about the BLS pre-adjustment data. In fact, judging by the
market response, nobody cares about BLS data anymore, period, with absolutely
no response by the market following the Claims print. Perhaps the only realm,
unfudged notable number was the jump in people claiming claims at the State
level, which soared by 71K in the week ending December 8, to a 3.238MM total.
This happened even the surge of those collecting EUCs finally ended, with just
4K new collectors of EUCs and Extended Benefits. The good news is that at least
nothing is Sandy's fault, at least this week.

Been
a while since we had some amusement out of the Bazooko Circus known as Europe,
which for the past month has gone completely dormant, not because "it
is fixed" but because, just like in Japan where the JPY has plunged
on expectations of an action by the BOJ, so
Europe has continued to benefit from the threat of the latest and greatest
proposed ECB intervention: the OMT, which on one hand keeps the vigilantes in
check, but on the other delays any painful reforms even as the underlying
Spanish economy continues to deteriorate without any real structural reforms:
something which a surge in rates would promptly precipitate (and once expectations
turn to reality, it's all over: just see the recent QE3 and QE4
attempts by the Fed). So speaking of Spain, today's recap sentence of the day
goes to Reuters' Julien Toyer with
the following: "Spanish lender Bankia will wipe out 350,000
shareholders, many of them small savers with little knowledge of financial
markets, after it emerged it had a negative value of 4.2 billion euros."
Now if only the Spanish wipe out ended with Bankia's shareholders...

On
this lackluster Boxing Day dominated by illiquid moves in every asset class, we
thought a few succinct minutes spent comprehending the US and European
government policies of social welfare and their outcomes was time well spent.
Canadian MP Pierre Poilievre delivers a rather epic speech destroying the myths
of US and European 'wealth' noting that "Once the US citizen is in debt,
the US government encourages them to stay in debt,"
noting that "the US government encouraged millions of Americans to spend
money they did not have on homes they could not afford using loans they could
never repay and then gave them a tax incentive never to repay it." His
message, delivered seamlessly, notes the inordinate rise in the cost of all
this borrowing, adding that "through debt interest alone, soon the US
taxpayer will be funding 100% of the Chinese Military complex." From
Dependence to Debt to the Welfare State and back to Dependence, this
presentation puts incredible context on the false hope so many believe in the
US and Europe. Everyone takes, nobody makes, work doesn't pay,
indulgence doesn't cost, money is free, and money is worthless. Must
watch.

Minutes
before Michigan Governor Snyder signed the 'Right-To-Work' bill into law,
Teamster leader Jimmy Hoffa appeared on CNN,as seen in the clip below,
warning that: "This is just the first round of a battle that's going
to divide this state. We're going to have a civil war,"
as the bill to weaken unions' power is passed.
{ There is an exception
to the hearsay rule known as a dying declaration; the rationale being that a
person would not ‘go to his maker’ with a false statement/declaration to ‘taint
his soul’. Interestingly, I had occasion to know a very intelligent, learned
man who was indeed dying, in a death spiral if you will. A lawyer by
profession, he had taken an interest in another lawyer’s history; none other
than Abraham Lincoln himself. Curiously I thought at the time, though even
then, some decades ago (long before the internet), I realized that you were
never getting the whole, correct, true story from american media, history as
written, etc.. ( I was fortunate in sixth grade to have had a great teacher,
James Bresnahan, who allowed for ‘expansive’/accelerated learning in what he
took the time and trouble to provide as an advanced reading group. Among the
subjects was that knowledge/thinking tainting phenomena known more commonly as
propaganda). After all, a long dead president; and, one who famously suffered
from recurring bouts of severe depression could hardly be the object of, from
my view, intense intellectual interest and scrutiny. Yet, he was fixated on
what he deemed a somewhat surprising revelation; viz., from his intense study,
Abe was not ‘Honest Abe’ but rather, was a thief. I was aware that in fact,
Lincoln found niggers somewhat appalling and initially opposed ending slavery
as well as those who favored same, viz., the abolitionists, etc. (niggers are a
same old old story of lazy, unproductive, inherently very uncivilized criminal
people who are fun-luvin’ for games, partying, and getting high only. Even the incisive Shakespeare
euphemistically referred to the ‘typicality’ of the inherently untrustworthy
and without sense of honor, ‘noir’ [french for black]). The ultimate consummate
politician (as a lawyer, Lincoln famously took a contrary position not long
before saying he thought he then was right but now taking the opposite position
now knew he was right … riiiiight! ‘Honest Abe’), Lincoln ultimately did, in rallying
his ‘stalwarts’, back the abolitionist cause. I personally feel the people of
the south were foolish in bringing vanquished niggers, sold into slavery by
other niggers who vanquished them, to this already now recently blemished land.
Moreover, as today, the niggers (and the abolitionist cause) had provided
fodder for politics of all sorts,
including that of Lincoln. Indeed, even today, spielberg who is famous for his
pro-jewish ‘politicking’/propaganda (even the first Indiana Jones movie was
heavy on the Arab/Nazi transference propaganda) has found a way to make
film-making pay for him and the democratic party by way of the misguided,
inaccurate view of Lincoln as the anti-slavery icon he is speciously depicted
as. Civil war? Hoffa, like his mob-connected, then disconnected (permanently)
father is old news. The truth is that their own done them in (as was so of
hoffa’s father) with NAFTA, etc., as they themselves foolishly laughed at their
real would-be saviors, ie., Ross Perot, etc.. The reality is, there is
literally nothing that can’t be produced better and cheaper and without paying
the shake-down bribe from the teamsters et als for doing absolutely nothing (as
is true with the other niggers, et als, entitlements, etc.), elsewhere.

Eleven
states made Forbes'
list of danger spots for investors including California, New York,
Illinois, and Ohio. They warned (and with the cliff it is even more
critical), if you have muni bonds in these states - clean up your
portfolio; if your career takes you there - rent, don't buy! Two factors determine
their list of 'fiscal hellholes'. The first is whether there are more
takers (someone who draws money from the government) than makers (the gainfully
employed). The second is a state
credit-worthiness score (via Conning) based on large debts, uncompetitive
business climates, weak home prices, and bad trends in employment. Conning
rates North Dakota the safest state to lend money to, Connecticut the most
hazardous. A state qualifies for the Forbes' death spiral list if its
taker/maker ratio exceeds 1.0 and it resides in the bottom half of Conning’s ranking. See below for the 11 states to avoid...no matter
what Bob Toll, Larry Yun, Bob Pisani, or Alexandra Lebenthal tells you..
Between 2010 and 2011, New Jersey’s GDP contracted by 0.5% — more than all but three states. The state’s median household income and poverty rate both ranked third in the nation. On the other hand, the state’s tax burden on its residents was second highest in the U.S. in 2010. Residents paid 12.4% of their income in state and local taxes — higher than any other state except neighboring New York. The state has budget problems, as well, according to the 24/7 Wall St. analysis. New Jersey’s debt as a percentage of revenue was 91.6%, the fifth-highest of all states.

Just
a few months back we noted the
FBI's arrest of Tony Mack, the Mayor of New Jersey's salubrious capital
Trenton. Today, via AP, the mayor and his brother have been indicted on eight
counts of extortion, bribery, and mail and wire fraud. The Mayor has continued
in his position - even since the September arrest - but the federal
indictment relates to an alleged scheme to accept $119,000 in bribes in
exchange for his influence in the development of a garage on city-owned land.
Shocked? not so much; but it seems maybe "Trenton Makes, The Mayor
Takes" is more appropriate.

line was a ‘political advantage’, that’s certainly no longer the case. In fact,
for all Romney’s contra-indicated pro-israel babble, wobama’s jewish vote from
the prior election was unchanged while Romney was hurt among other
constituencies fearing a return to the moron bush neo-con/pro-israeli war

reality is that while rome burns, the ne(r)o cons fiddle with unreasonable
israeli obsessive preoccupations born of paranoia and irrational quest for
control of people who america and clinton herself warrant a separate state by way of the 2 state solution. The fact
is, america’s problems are too large and grave for attention to israeli

11-5-11 Dear Congresswoman Roybal-Allard:
The Keynesian (economic) approach, if ever a wise prescription for ‘economic doldrums’, euphemistically speaking (there are articles/studies/data that dispute the purported effectiveness of the widely hailed ‘Keynesian remedy’ during the prior great depression), the ‘Keynesian way’ is certainly no longer a prudent approach today in light of the insurmountable debt levels of nations worldwide and in america particularly along with the concomitant over-printed, debased ‘paper currencies’ to finance same. Quite simply, there simply is not enough real value being created for redistribution, a situation exacerbated by the parasitic lightening fast, computerized churn and earn high frequency trading programs on fraudulent wall street (they should be prosecuted, jailed, fined, and disgorgement imposed for extant frauds in the trillions now marked to anything as per misguided legislated FASB rule change). [ America’s debt woe is worse than Greece’s News (CNN) — ‘Our government is utterly broke …The government’s total indebtedness is $211 trillion’. 43,454,601,693,238 Reasons Why The World Is Broke – Presenting The Interactive Global Debt Clock Zero Hedge October 17, 2011 http://www.economist.com/content/global_debt_clock ] .This is the consequence of a structural shift fed by greed and misguided policy and cannot be undone (transfer of productive capacity to ie., China, etc., ‘the bell cannot be unrung’). That said which militates against such an extension, this is an election year which probabilities suggest makes highly likely the passage of the extension. I favor your co-sponsored legislation and before the holidays simply in the name and spirit of Christmas and for no other reason whatsoever. Below is a recent comment to Opinion Writer Krauthammer’s ‘more war spending (Keynesian) position’ and an article regarding the folly of same. Immediately following is from my prior post to you concerning something of such manageable proportion and well within the government’s ability to resolve (if the government can’t accomplish this consistent with law and long overdue, then there isn’t anything the government can accomplish), along with other comments to you for ease of reference:
‘…As previously noted in a prior message to you, I had previously spoken to FBI Agent Bill Lewis in Washington who was recently promoted to the FBI Headquarters Office (D.C.) from the FBI office here in LA, and who was to be out of the office for the two weeks past. I’ll be contacting him given a reasonable time for him to ‘catch up’, from being out of the office. While independent contractor richard coan is ultimately the one to bear the burden of damages (there’s insurance and a surety covering same), coan might allude to the prior default of the u.s. government (assist. u.s. atty. robert i. lester miscounted / miscalculated the time for filing an answer / response to the complaint upon service thereof, also misstating the rule in open court before corrupt judge matz who ‘schmoozed’ things over (they both have the same employer), however incorrectly according to the ‘law’. I ordered / bought a copy of the transcript of that rather pathetic proceeding (posted in part on my website). In any event, regardless who pays me, the amounts so paid would ultimately be recovered from coan, his insurer/surety which amounts might even exceed the amount I’m willing to settle at. [There is also a judgment (referenced in the correspondence to FBI ADIC Martinez infra) that had been entered in my favor in the case, United States District Court Case #3:93cv02065(AWT)(USDCJ Alvin Thompson), worth approximately now in excess of $300,000 remains unaccounted for and which would benefit Los Angeles, etc.; and then, of course as well, the substantial damages. ] I’ve waited far too long for this matter to resolve, what should have been resolved in accordance with clear law long ago; and, which would have been resolved if not for typical u.s. corruption in the process; and, which is well within the government’s ability to resolve.

America also leads in the illegal drug trade. In fact, many researchers reveal that the war on drugs is only utilized to control and monopolize the illicit drug trade.

In fact, Global Research points out that in 2001, “according to UN figures, opium production had fallen to 185 tons. Immediately following the October 2001 US led invasion, production increased dramatically, regaining its historical levels.” This month, the U.N. announced that Afghanistan now provides 93% of the world’s opium production [ http://www.nytimes.com/2011/10/12/world/asia/un-reports-sharp-rise-in-opium-production-in-afghanistan.html?_r=2&ref=world ] ; up 61% compared to 2010 to a whopping 5800 tons. Although the empire tries to keep it secret, they can’t hide the hypocrisy forever. [ website archived links http://albertpeia.com/uscocainedistributionfiles.htm

Guest Post: The West Has Just
Become A Giant Banana Republic
ZeroHedge.com by Tyler Durden { Yeah! This really is too true for words!
It’s been my direct experience for
quite some time now and is quite a pathetic scenario! } Legal precedent means nothing. Rule of law means
nothing. Free speech means nothing. Their own treaties mean nothing. It’s
unbelievable. Anyone in the west who honestly thinks he’s still living in a
free society is either a fool or completely out of touch. If that seems
too radical an idea, consider that ECUADOR is now the only nation which
stands to defend freedom and human rights against an assault from the
United States, the United Kingdom, and their spineless allies. The west
has just become a giant banana republic. Have you hit your breaking point
yet? If not now… when? { { I’m really constrained to
interject my own direct experience with the FBI here; and, I must say I do so
lamentably. If you want no real results vis-à-vis organized crime which now
extends to the upper reaches, highest levels of the corrupt u.s. government, go
to the FBI. I discounted the new jersey FBI as just typical corrupt, mob
infested jersey which thinks in terms of discos/casinos. But, truth be told,
they never ask the ‘tough’ questions of the biggest criminals; ie., the biggest
wall street frauds, cia connected illegal ‘drug ops’ (ops…riiiiight), federal judges ie., trump barry, shiff,
alito, etc.; but, they did go after Martha Stewart in a very big way over a
$45,000 transaction. Wow! You can’t make this stuff up. I also don’t believe their
(understated) crime stats for even a second. I’m beginning to feel
foolish for having even put my full faith and trust in them, much less the ‘federal (judicial) system’ who share the ‘same employer’; and, despite my
antipathy for the mob, probably would have fared ‘more fairly’ with the mobsters
directly who seem to have at least some sense of the magnitude of the fraud
involved and the pervasive corruption of the system and government and maybe a
semblance of honor in this nation of protracted decline. It never would have
occurred to me back when for me, such a choice/decision was clear-cut and
simple. Such a course as mine I no longer could recommend inasmuch as there is
little difference between state/government sponsored crime/corruption and that
perpetrated by other criminal elements, from my direct experience with both,

of Lindsay Lohan and Snooki, some federal workers reflect our culture all too
well. (Washington Post) [ Lindsay Lohan? Come on Mr. Milbank, hands off the low
hanging fruit. She’s totally harmless. Jersey ‘italian’ snooki? In mob infested
new jersey, who knows (one of the properties in my proceedings for which
surplus funds are unaccounted for was a top floor balconied 2 bedroom 1 and 1/2

held close to vest
EXCLUSIVE | Documents and interviews show FBI and Justice Department officials
took steps to control information uncovered by a task force designed to examine
cases involving discredited agents. Many defendants were never notified of
flaws in cases. ‘Simply unconscionable’ (Washington Post) [ Well, I really have to say this.
I’m
awaiting word from the FBI as to resolution, one way or the other, concerning
the RICO matters which have been systematically and corruptly covered up by the
government (executive, legislative, and judicial branches of the pervasively
corrupt, defacto bankrupt u.s. government http://www.albertpeia.com/112208opocoan/ricosummarytoFBIunderpenaltyofperjury.pdf http://www.albertpeia.com/112208opocoan/PeiavCoanetals.htm
) . Never in my wildest dreams would I have believed
the level and extent of corruption and criminality within the ranks of the u.s.
government before embarking upon this costly quest for justice and simple
fairness consistent with clear law (infra, regarding the u.s. government’s direct involvement in
the illegal drug trade). In this civil RICO matter, there are no innocent
bystanders; but rather, perpetrators, accomplices, and co-conspirators. When
the fbi agent initially assigned to this matter (Connecticut) abruptly
resigned/retired shortly after a conversation, though not central to my case,
wherein I had said that rudy giuliani’s father had been an (convicted) enforcer for the mob
(served 12 years? in prison, aggravated assault/manslaughter?) and then sent
him documentation owing to his disbelief. Though ultimately ineffectual
vis-à-vis my case, he was a likeable guy for whom I had and still have regard.
I then spoke with FBI Agent Jeff Rasey upon the aforesaid agent’s departure who somewhat
plaintively (‘my
call being a burden’) told me that ‘he was a Ford, and I was a Ferrari’, which he didn’t explain further. Could
anyone tell me what that means? Initially, at new jersey’s FBI office, I was ‘greeted’ by an FBI Agent who
sarcastically asked me whether I was ‘going to the disco that night’ (the documents including
sworn statements delivered to then u.s. attorney sam alito’s office in the same
building disappeared twice along with the initial assistant u.s. attorney
Jonathan Lacey with whom I had reviewed the documentary evidence, documents and
their probative value http://www.albertpeia.com/112208opocoan/ricosummarytoFBIunderpenaltyofperjury.pdf . We all can infer sam alito’s reward / quid pro quo
for his cover-up by his current position on the u.s. supreme
court. There was never a question as to maryanne trump barry’s interest in corrupting
the judicial process as related to her brother’s (trump) casinos. Jersey
city boy louis freeh, labeled by former Prosecutor Larry Klayman as the most
corrupt FBI director ever (see infra, mueller seems no different, and certainly
holder’s
impeachable actions and corrupt behavior/cover-ups fit the mold, ie., fast and
furious, race bias favoring blacks, etc.) apparently covered up the RICO
violations as sent to him, and, with italian citizenship and lucrative insider
deals fits the bill. The FBI Agent Jeff Hayes of the Long Beach Office with
whom I reviewed the RICO documents and confirmed same as indicative of (drug)
money laundering was transferred shortly after meeting with him, as has been so
of FBI Agent Bill Lewis (promoted to Washington FBI headquarters) with whom I
discussed the RICO matter and case disks/dvd’s sent to the LA FBI
office (they printed the documents thereon, as per Agent Lewis), Steven
Martinez, ADIC, here in Los Angeles (see infra). So, as regards FBI flaws,
coverup, etc., I have to believe it based on my own experience and reasonable
inference. I’m
currently being ‘stonewalled’ by the LA FBI office since the departure of FBI
Agent Bill Lewis.
[ .. (the following incident is my personal experience: black perps, white
victims)' ... while walking through Military Park (a sliver of a 'park' - more
a pedestrian thoroughfare/cement walks) in newark, new jersey on the way to the
bank during lunch hour, I heard the clearly audible screams/cries of what
turned out to be an old lady on the ground with blood streaming from her mouth.
I ran toward the sound of the cries, the source of which I could not see
because there were so many people in and about this thoroughfare so as to block
any vision of the source of the cries. When I came to the woman, on the ground,
blood streaming from her mouth, I asked what happened, to which she responded
she had been hit in the mouth and knocked to the ground, her purse stolen/put
inside her shopping bag, and she pointed out the criminal casually now walking
across the main street. Nobody stopped to help her, many having passed her by.
I slammed the thug to the ground so hard that, in light of all the blood and
confusion (limbic system / adrenalin flow) I thought I had been stabbed (the
blood was from his elbows hitting the pavement so hard - no one helped / a
crowd gathered / an undercover cop happened along). When I testified at the
Grand Jury Proceeding I made sure his threat on my life was set forth in prima
facie fashion so as to maximize the DA's position with both felonies ( he went
to prison - pled out ). The other case I wrote about here ( This was included
on my website in the Psychology forum discussion of 'bystander effect' /
diffusion of responsibility. ) - Having had occasion to have run down a mugger
in newark, n.j. who apparently had followed a girl from the bank on her way to
the bursar to pay tuition, though in pretty good shape, I was astounded by how
totally exhausting such a pursuit was, how much like rubber my arms were when I
traded punches with the perpetrator, and truth be told, if I had a flashlight
on my belt, I have little doubt that I would have probably used it to subdue
the perp (a police officer here in California was the object of intense
criticism for having used a flashlight to subdue a criminal after a long chase
so I included that here) . The girl was not that seriously injured, did get her
pocketbook and tuition back, and the criminal went to jail (where they belong).
The other thing about such a pursuit that amazed me was that no one else
assisted the girl or me despite being in a position to do so. I was also mugged
by 4 blacks and 2 hispanics in an incident here in Los Angeles, CA. But, to be
fair and balanced, the RICO litigation involves those uncivilized who consider
themselves 'whites' http://albertpeia.com/ricosummarytoFBIunderpenaltyofperjury.pdf

First
Ohio; Next 'The Moon'? Submitted by Tyler
Durden on 11/08/2012 While
markets are digesting the probabilities of a dramatic rise in taxes and cut in
spending as we approach the fiscal cliff, it appears that behind-the-scenes
there has been a secret plan that we can only imagine is designed to
rocket-boost us over the cliff - new manned missions to the moon. As Space.com
reports, NASA is serious about sending astronauts back to the moon's
neighborhood and will likely unveil its ambitious plans soon now that President
Barack Obama has been re-elected, experts say. They go on to comment that
"The space agency has apparently been thinking about
setting up a manned outpost beyond the moon's far side, both to establish a human presence in deep space and
to build momentum toward a planned visit to an asteroid in 2025. The new plans have
probably already been cleared with the Obama Administration but have been kept
under wraps in case Republican candidate Mitt Romney won Tuesday night's (Nov. 6) presidential
election." While the claims are that this will not increase the budget, we
suspect out-of-this-world manned outposts cost a little more than the $17.7bn
budgeted for NASA in 2013... someone is clearly eating space-cakes.
Ironic
really given our earlier post... {
Riiiiight! Sounds like a plan! After all, the new mooney gold and mooney
diamond mines on the mooney moon will pay for themselves and the mission … The reality though is a
new boondoggle to fleece the treasury/taxpayers…
Astronauts' tracks, trash seen in new moon photos
[ The easiest thing in the world to contrive (don’t forget they can with some
precision today send robotics to ie., mars, etc.) and doctor so don’t be taken
in by their fraudulent b***s***! They’re probably desperately looking for some
money / budgetary consideration for their continued boondoggles. No man has
ever set foot on the moon to date. As NASA transitions, U.S.
space politics in a state of flux
(Washington Post) [ U.S. space politics? I didn’t know there was such a
thing. But I, and I’m sure all know that ‘u.s. politics are spaced’. Flux? One
could only hope. I’d say, ‘fleeced’; as in we’ve all been fleeced. Sterner: 5 myths about NASA (Washington Post) [ If you can’t get past
the first myth; viz., that they actually set foot on the moon, the other 5
so-called myths become irrelevant. Indeed, post-Eisenhower, and certainly
post-Kennedy-assassination / coup d’etat, NASA was all military / military
industrial complex (moreover, someone knowledgeable about such matters said
essentially that in explaining to my surprise the transition to the shuttle
program it was said there was greater military application in same). In any
event, Russia’s been doing quite a bit of ‘heavy lifting’ vis-à-vis the space
station, but not inordinately so. All I can say with certainty is that the
universe beyond this solar system is forever protected / insulated. The fact
is, they never set foot on the moon; and, in light of the pervasive corruption
in and defacto bankruptcy of the nation, their perpetual wars toward making a
hell on earth militate against anything but trying to do even just a little bit
better (for a start), terrestrially. NASA wants mission to bring Martian rocks to Earth

FLASHBACK: Obama's Sordid High School Past...
By Ben Shapiro ‘While the Washington Post has been diligently
digging into relatively innocent high school pranks
by Mitt Romney, they’ve spent the last few years diligently ignoring President
Obama’s far more controversial high school days.Obama, by all accounts, was a
habitual drug user in high school. He tried cocaine, he admits in Dreams
From My Father; he “tried drugs enthusiastically.” The Chicago Tribune
reported back in 2007 that Obama thanked the “Choom Gang” in his high school
yearbook; “chooming” was Hawaiian slang for smoking pot. The Honolulu
Advertiser reported that Obama’s senior portrait “prominently displayed …
A package of ‘Zig-Zag’ rolling papers and a matchbook.” One of Obama’s close
friends was arrested for drug possession during high school.In his memoir,
Obama talked about routinely getting high. “Junkie. Pothead,” he wrote. “That’s
where I’d been headed: the final, fatal role of the young would-be black man.”
But, according to Obama, he only got high because he was contemplating deep
matters: drugs could “push questions of who I was out of my mind.” Obama told
students in 2007 that this activity constituted “goofing off” and “wasting
time”:"I will confess to you that I was kind of a goof off in high school
as my mom reminded me," Obama said. "I went to high school in
