Note: I’m here in San Diego County in my new/old
39 foot Chevy Motorhome. I can’t get a signal for my Verizon LG smartphone
(I’ll be taking a spin in my Ford Explorer in search of a signal; my VOIP
phone, magicjack requiring a broadband connection, is currently not up except
for voicemail). The radio reception is also limited which led me to ‘sample’
some limited AM offerings which included shallow sean hannity the hallmark of
insanity, and ‘rush revere’ [limbaugh… he’s totally burnt out (the consequence
of his being ‘tired of carrying the water for the republican party’? - his own
words), relegated now to authoring children’s illustrated books of a simplistic
nature]. Shallow sean’s latest ‘crusade’ (beyond the same note/key obvious
debacle of wobamacare) was defense of the indefensible mobster but friend of
sean’s, donald trump (trump should be in jail). In defense of t_rump, he offers
up the itsy-bitsy, teeny weeny wohlman skating rink project as evidence of
t_rump’s contribution to NYC (too small for high new york priority given the
magnitude of New York substantial problems, some largely the result of trumpish
tastes, ie., solid gold trump tower fixtures, etc., that trump’s ‘pre-packaged
bankrupcies’ seem to fail to touch, and which extravagance must be paid for by
someone, but not him). Shallow sean’s excoriation of new york city never seems
to link the obviousness of t_rump’s grandstanding responsibility for same.
After all, someone ultimately has to pay for trump’s disproportionate
non-value-added livin’ large. No talk of trump’s ingratiating bribe strategy
for protection ( ie., retainer’s to law firms linked to state attorney
generals, viz., {kimmelman} wolf and sampson, chris droney’s brother, his
sister’s protection/corruption and quid pro quo from the federal bench, etc.,
and as well, protection of drug-money laundering through his now nominal only
casinos … See, ie., http://www.albertpeia.com/112208opocoan/ricosummarytoFBIunderpenaltyofperjury.pdf
http://www.albertpeia.com/112208opocoan/PeiavCoanetals.htm http://albertpeia.com/fbimartinezcongallard.htm .
Trump’s a fraud! I won’t be listening to ‘rush revere’ or shallow sean
prospectively. They’re a waste of time and preposterous given their unbridled
support of war criminals bush, cheney, etc., and the failed debacles they
created, etc……

While hardly as spectacular as Hugh Hendry's supernova flameout, or the far more boring, slow
motion conversion of the assorted other famous and less famous bears, a
legendary hedge fund titan has decided he too has no use for excess capital in
this broken market. No surprise then that Institutional Investors' Alpha reports that Baupost's
Seth Klarman is returning $4 billion in capital to investors for only the
second time in its history due to "a lack of investment opportunities."
And watching how the epic farce that Bernanke's wealth effect known as the
Stalingrad & Poorski trades in the last 30 minutes of every day nobody can
blame him. And no, Klarman is not returning cash due to some hidden
underperformance: "Baupost’s many partnerships were up 13 percent, on
average, through the September quarter. Its annualized return since inception
is in the high teens." This happens to push it in the top decile of all
hedge funds in 2013.

HANK’S RESTAURANT
(Arlo Guthrie--Alice’s Restaurant)
Adapted by WilliamBanzai7
This song is called Hank’s Restaurant,
and it’s about Hank,
and the restaurant,
but Hank’s Restaurant is not the name of the restaurant,
that’s just the name of the song,
and that’s why I called the song Hank’s Restaurant.
You can take anything you want from Hank’s Bailout Restaurant
You can take anything you want from Hank’s Bailout Restaurant
Walk right in it’s around the back
Just a half a mile from the Federal Reserve Bank
You can take anything you want from Hank’s Bailout Restaurant
Now it all started Hanksgiving Day 2008
when my friend Fabulous Fab and I went up to visit Hank at the
restaurant,
but Hank doesn’t like sittin in there,
he likes sittin near a fella named Blankfein in Goldman Sachs’
Wall Street office,
in a big glass tower.
And being in a tower like that,
they got a lot of room downstairs.
Havin’ all that room,
they decided that they didn’t have to take out their subprime
garbage for a long time.
We got up there,
we found all the toxic subprime garbage in there,
and we decided it’d be a friendly gesture for us to take the
garbage down to the Federal Reserve shitty deal dump, Maiden Lane.
So my friend and I took the $700 billion tons of subprime
garbage,
put it in the back of a red Humvee stretch limo, including CDSs
and CDOs and other implements of financial
mass destruction and headed on toward the Maiden Lane shitty deal
dump.
Well we got there and there was a big sign and a chain across
across the dump saying,
"By order of Emperor Benron--No Dumping on
Hanksgiving."
And we had never heard of a shitty deal dump closed on
Hanksgiving before,
and with tears in our eyes we drove off into the sunset looking
for another place to put the toxic asset garbage.
We didn’t find one.
Until we came to a side road,
and off the side of the side road there was another financial
black hole hole and at the bottom of the hole there was
a big pile of Wall Street garbage, offering circulars, stress
tests, analyst reports, mortgage notes and such.
And we decided that one big pile is better than two little
piles,
and rather than bring that one up we decided to throw our’s
down.
That’s what we did, and drove back to the restaurant,
had a Thanksgiving dinner that couldn’t be beat,
went to sleep and didn’t get up until the next morning,
when we got a phone call from Porn Commissioner Cox.
He said, "Kid, we found your name on an Abacus offering circular
at the bottom of a half a ton of shitty deals,
and just wanted to know if you had any information about
it."
And I said, "Yes, sir, Mr. Porn Commissioner,
I cannot tell a lie, I put that Abacus offering circular under
that garbage."
After speaking to Porn Commissioner Cox for about fourty-five
minutes on the telephone we finally arrived at
the truth of the matter and said that we had to go down and
pick up the subprime garbage,
and also had to go down and speak to him at the Porn
Commission’s NY Regional office.
So we got in the red Humvee Limo with the CDOs and CDSs and
implements of financial mass destruction and
headed on toward the Porn office upstairs at Score’s.
Now friends, there was only one or two things that the
Commissioner coulda done at the Porn office,
and the first was he could have shown us some hot porn tubes of
Mary Schapiro doin the deed,
which wasn’t very likely, and we didn’t expect it,
and the other thing was he could have bawled us out and told us never
to be seen driving toxic asset backed
garbage around the vicinity of Wall Street again,
which is what we expected,
but when we got to the Porn Commission’s office there was a
third possibility that we hadn’t even counted upon,
and we was both immediately arrested.
Handcuffed.
And I said Mr. Porn Commissioner sir, I don’t think I can pick
up the toxic garbage with these handcuffs on.
He said, "Shut up, kid. Get in the back of the car."
And that’s what we did, sat in the back of the car and drove to
the quote Scene of the Crime unquote.
I want tell you about Wall Street, where this happened here,
they got three Federal regulators, the SEC, the
CFTC and the FBI, but when we got to the Scene of the Crime
there was all kinds of Black Ops people running
around,
this being the biggest financial crime of the last five
consecutive Wall Street trading days,
and everybody wanted to get in the newspaper story about it.
And the TSA, they was using up all kinds of equipment that they
had hanging around the anti-traveler unit.
They was taking plaster tire tracks, finger prints, dog smelling
prints, and they took twenty seven eight-by-ten
glossy back scatter scans with circles and arrows and a
paragraph on the back of each one explaining what each
one was to be used as evidence against us.
Took scans of the approach, the getaway, the northwest corner
the southwest corner and that’s not to
mention the aerial drone photography.
After the ordeal, we went back to the jail.
Porn Commissioner Cox said he was going to put us in the cell.
Said,
"Kid, I’m going to put you in the cell, I want your wallet
and your belt."
And I said, "I can understand you wanting my wallet so I
don’t have any money to spend in the cell,
but what do you want my belt for?"
And he said, "Kid, we don’t want any hangings."
I said, "did you really think I was going to hang myself
for financial intermediation?"
Porn commissioner Cox said he was making sure,
and friends the Porn Commissioner was,
cause he took out the toilet seat so I couldn’t hit myself over
the head and drown,
and he took out the toilet paper so I couldn’t bend the bars
roll out the – roll the toilet paper out the window,
slide down the roll and have an escape.
The PornCommissioner was making sure,
and it was about four or five hours later that Hank (remember
Hank? It’s a song about Hank),
came by and with a few nasty words to Porn Commissioner Cox on
the side,
Bailed us out using Federal taxpayer money,
and we went back to the restaurant,
had a another Hanksgiving dinner that couldn’t be beat!!
You can take anything you want, from Hank’s Bailout Restaurant
You can take anything you want, from Hank’s Bailout Restaurant
Walk right in it’s around the back
Just a half a mile from the Federal Reserve Bank

WB7: This is my favorite Thanksgiving song. It is also the only
one I know.
Arlo Authrie, if you don’t know him, is the son of Woody
Guthrie, a famous folk singer who was no friend of Wall Street.
I originally did this version of Alice’s Restaurant in September
2008. This is my updated version, which is really an excuse for me to play this
song for you and to once again say…
HAPPY HANKSGIVING ALL!!

“TO BIT OR NOT
TO BIT”
WilliamBanzaiShakespeare
To Bit, or not to Bit: that is the question:
Whether ’tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fiat distortions,
Or to take arms against a sea of endless bubbles,
And by opposing end them? To die: to sweep;
No more; and by a sweep to say we end
The heart-ache and the thousand Wall Street schtupps
That insolvent flesh is heir to, ’tis a con-flagellation
Devoutly to be dish’d. To die, to sweep;
To sweep: perchance to scream: ay, there’s the hubub;
For aft that sweep of bankster dregs what new reams may come?
When we have shuffled off the immoral coinage,
Must give us pause: there’s the hazard of moral neglect
That makes calamity of sound money life;
For who would bear the whips and scorns of fiat debasement ,
The oppressor’s wrong, the borrowing idiot's contumely,
The pangs of despised austerity, the law of gravity's delay,
The insolence of central banking office and the spurns
That impatient murmur of money changing snakes,
When he himself might his quietus make
With a Benjamin Bernankin? who would QE fardels bear,
To grunt and sweat under a weary life of indebtured servitude,
But that the dread of something after redemption prior to maturity,
The undiscovered monetary wasteland from whose bourn
Are no asset returns, puzzles the will
And makes us rather bear those monetary ills we have
Than fly to others that we know not much of?
Thus risk avoidance does make cowards of us all;
And thus the creative hue of fiscal revolution
Is sicklied o’er with the pale cast of doubt,
And genius enterprises of great pith and moment
With this regard alternative currencies turn awry,
And lose the name of action.–Soft you now!
And now the Bitcoin hysteria…
While Banksta pimps 'r in thy orfices
Be all our financial sins and cowardices priced in.
According to a whistleblower that has recently
come forward, Census employees have been faking and manipulating U.S.
employment numbers for years. In fact, it is being alleged that this
manipulation was a significant reason for why the official unemployment rate
dipped sharply just before the last presidential election. What you are
about to read is incredibly disturbing. The numbers that the American
people depend upon to make important decisions are being faked. But
should we be surprised by this? After all, Barack Obama has been caught telling dozens of major
lies over the past five years. At this point it is incredible that
there are any Americans that still trust anything that comes out of his
mouth. And of course it is not just Obama that has been lying to
us. Corruption and deception are rampant throughout the entire federal
government, and this has been the case for years. Now that some light is
being shed on this, hopefully the American people will respond with
overwhelming outrage and disgust. (Read More....)

Puke Fine Art Print Editions just in time for the Christmas Holidays…
.

Dear Friends,
Here before you is a truly historic series of
images that I have painstakingly adapted to the current state of sordidly
odiferous political/financial affairs.
Years from now, there will be little doubt over
what the artist was seeing and thinking contemporaneously in the year 2013.
I am not going to oversell these pictures. They speak
for themselves.
They also demonstrate how history truly rhymes on
Wall Street.
I have all of these in very large high resolution
files. So every print will match the highest standards of fine art print
production.
As you can see, I have departed from normal
practice by offering these prints in an assortment of sizes. I have done this
solely to maximize your
participation by spreading price points. Bear in
mind that the amount of personal time and effort involved is the same
irrespective of print size.
Each print will be signed, numbered and dated
December 25, 2013.
I know that many of you are suffering various
levels of economic hardship in these trying times. As is always the case, you
are free to print these off for your own personal use.
I truly appreciate all the the moral and
financial support that I receive from all of you.
As you know, the primary reason that I am doing
these prints is to signify my gratitude in return for your generous support for
my endeavors.
It is my sincerest wish that the situation will
turn sooner than later so that each and everyone of us can return to
personal prosperity.
Best wishes to you all,
And Fuck You Ben Bernanke!

How
many lies can one president tell and still retain any credibility? What
you are about to see is absolutely astounding. It is a long list of important
promises that Barack Obama has broken since he has been president. If he
had only told a few lies, perhaps the American people would be willing to
overlook that. After all, pretty much all of our politicians our
liars. Unfortunately, many of the lies that Obama has told appear to have
been quite cold-hearted in nature. For example, Barack Obama repeatedly
made the promise that “you
will be able to keep your health care plan” under Obamacare. But now
we are learning that he knew that this was a lie all along. Not only
that, the Democrats in Congress knew that this was a lie all along too.
In fact, U.S. Senator Kirsten Gillibrand, a Democrat, said
the following when she was asked about Obama’s promise to the American
people recently: “He should’ve just been specific. No, we all knew.” You
can see video of her making this statement right
here. The truth is that they all knew that millions upon millions of
Americans would lose their current health care policies under Obamacare.
They deliberately lied just so that they could get the law passed.
And
of course this is far from the only major lie that Obama has told in recent
years. The following is a list of 23 famous Obama quotes that turned out
to be broken promises or cold-hearted lies…
#1 “If you like your
doctor, you will be able to keep your doctor. Period. If you like your health
care plan, you will be able to keep your health care plan. Period. No one will
take it away. No matter what.”
#2 “My
administration is committed to creating an unprecedented level of openness in
government.”
#3 “We agree on
reforms that will finally reduce the costs of health care. Families will save
on their premiums…”
#4 “I don’t want
to pit Red America against Blue America. I want to be the president
of
the United States of America.”
#5 “We’ve
got shovel-ready projects all across the country that governors and
mayors are pleading to fund. And the minute we can get those investments
to the state level, jobs are going to be created.”
#6 “And we will
pursue the housing plan I’m outlining today. And through this plan, we will
help between 7 and 9 million families restructure or refinance their mortgages
so they can afford—avoid foreclosure.”
#7 “I will sign a
universal health-care bill into law by the end of my first term as president
that will cover every American and cut the cost of a typical family’s premium
by up to $2,500 a year.”
#8 “We reject the
use of national security letters to spy on citizens who are not suspected of a
crime.”
#9 “For people
with insurance, the only impact of the health-care law is that their insurance
is stronger, better, and more secure than it was before. Full stop. That’s it.
They don’t have to worry about anything else.”
#10 “We will close
the detention camp in Guantanamo Bay, the location of so many of the worst
constitutional abuses in recent years.”
#11 “Allow
Americans to buy their medicines from other developed countries if the drugs
are safe and prices are lower outside the U.S.”
#12 “We will
revisit the Patriot Act and overturn unconstitutional executive decisions
issued during the past eight years.”
#13 “Will ensure
that federal contracts over $25,000 are competitively bid.”
#14 “We reject
sweeping claims of ‘inherent’ presidential power.”
#15 “Will eliminate
all income taxation of seniors making less than $50,000 per year. This will
eliminate taxes for 7 million seniors — saving them an average of $1,400 a
year– and will also mean that 27 million seniors will not need to file an
income tax return at all.”
#16 “We support
constitutional protections and judicial oversight on any surveillance program
involving Americans.”
#17 “If we have
not gotten our troops out by the time I am president, it is the first thing I
will do. I will get our troops home, we will end this war. You can
take that to the bank.”
#18 “Will not sign
any non-emergency bill without giving the American public an opportunity to
review and comment on the White House website for five days.”
#19 “The President
does not have power under the Constitution to unilaterally authorize a military
attack in a situation that does not involve stopping an actual or imminent
threat to the nation.”
#20 “We have a
choice in this country. We can accept a politics that breeds division and
conflict and cynicism…. That is one option. Or, at this moment, in this
election, we can come together and say, ‘Not this time….’”
#21 “We’ve got to
spend some money now to pull us out of this recession. But as soon as we’re out
of this recession, we’ve got to get serious about starting to live within
our means, instead of leaving debt for our children and our grandchildren and
our great-grandchildren.”
#22 “[T]oday I’m
pledging to cut the deficit we inherited in half by the end of my first term in
office. This will not be easy. It will require us to make difficult decisions
and face challenges we’ve long neglected. But I refuse to leave our children
with a debt that they cannot repay – and that means taking responsibility right
now, in this administration, for getting our spending under control.”
#23 “I, Barack
Hussein Obama, do solemnly swear that I will execute the office of president of
the United States faithfully, and will to the best of my ability, preserve,
protect, and defend the constitution of the United States.”
About
the author: Michael
T. Snyder is a former Washington D.C. attorney who now publishes The Truth. His new thriller entitled “The
Beginning Of The End” is now available on Amazon.com.
Since when can a president change a law all by
himself? By unilaterally declaring that certain provisions of Obamacare
will not be enforced, Barack Obama is making a mockery of the U.S.
Constitution. For those that have not read it, the U.S. Constitution says
that the president “shall
take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed“. So when Obama
declares that he will not enforce certain provisions of Obamacare for a year,
he is directly violating the Constitution. And as Stanford Law School
Professor Michael McConnell wrote back in July, the Office of Legal
Counsel for the Justice Department “has always insisted that the president has
no authority, as one such memo put it in 1990, to ‘refuse to enforce a statute
he opposes for policy reasons.’” This is an open and shut case. If
the U.S. Congress still had a shred of respect for the Constitution, they would
immediately demand that Obama enforce the law as written. If Obama
refused, they should immediately impeach him. We are a country that is
run by the rule of law, and just because Obama’s new law completely screws up one-sixth
of the economy does not mean that he can unilaterally change it. In our
system, Congress makes the laws and the president enforces them. If we
allow any president to unilaterally change laws whenever he does not like them,
then that puts us dangerously close to having a dictator in the White House. (Read More.....)

We Americans are basically a very simple people.
Our formula for past successes has essentially
been distilled as follows: maintain a "can-do" attitude, believe in
the "American way", honest hard work will be rewarded, abundant opportunity
and upward mobility for all.
Those who play the prosperity game correctly may
look forward to retirement in a spleniferous life of leisure and
Obamacare.
Once upon a time, this is is what American
Thanksgiving was supposed to look like...
Most Americans desperately cling to the foolish
Ponzi pipe dream of a notion that this Thanksgiving dream is still possible.
And for some PhD morons who evidently borrow
subprime QE money to purchase shitty American vehicles made principally of
plastic components sourced in Shenzen, the dream has been fullfilled.
Unfortunately, for reasons far to numerous to enumerate
in this post, this is all just a Ponzi Pilgrim's delusion.
There is one big kahuna of a fucking reason so
very plainly obvious.
When it comes to ridding our fucking system of
finance, the "fucking system" if you will, of all the learned fucking
thieves sitting the top of the fucking Ponzi pyramid, we are hopelessly screwed
up each and every one of our Holland and Lincoln Tunnels.
The same cheap fucking QE paper that buys those
shitty vehicles will also pay the much ballyhooed $13 Billion JPM shyster fine.
Half of JPM's profits in 2013.
Gobble fucking Goebbels.
I won't insult anyone's fringe low brow
intelligence by asking who has been convicted.
In any event, such a scenario is far to fetched
to even consider.
Instead I will pose the following question:
The biggest most egregious case of financial
fraud and chicanery by a US banking institution measured by the fiat of the
fine.
The biggest fine ever!
"Hoooly Cow!"--Phil Rizutto
Have the regulators who are in charge of the
whole JP Clusterfuck (you know the ones who keep getting reappointed, promoted
or hired by private equity firms) applied their very substantial leverage to
force the Shyster in Chief of JP Cesspool to cede his shysterly position by
resigning?
Is this something that could have happened? Of
course it is.
Don't believe me?
Go and ask our distinguished colleague Bill
Black, Esq what he thinks.
Does the fact that the same schlemiel will remain
in charge of the old JP Cesspit send the rest of us a message?
You better believe it does...
Whatcha are you gonna do sisters and brothers?
Sadly, for most of the rest of America it all
boils down to this...

( like packs of the rabid dogs they are pre-disposed to be). (Parenthetically,
my grandparents, both of whom I loved and respected – Elsie/Nanny, Bari, Italy

but rather, thoroughly modern in all respects relative to time and extremely

You may find what is happening at
one Wal-Mart in Ohio very hard to believe. At the Wal-mart on Atlantic
Boulevard in Canton, Ohio employees are being asked to donate food items so
that other employees that cannot afford to buy Thanksgiving dinner will be able
to enjoy one too. You can see a photo of the donation bins that has been
posted on Twitter right
here. On the one hand, it is commendable that someone at that
Wal-Mart is deeply concerned about the employees that are so poor that they
cannot afford to buy the food that they need for Thanksgiving. On the
other hand, this is a perfect example that shows how the quality of the jobs in
this country has gone down the toilet. Wal-Mart is the largest employer
in the United States and it had operating income of 26.5
billion dollars last year. Wal-Mart is not required to pay their
employees a decent wage, and it is very unlikely that anyone will force them
to. But they should. Because Wal-Mart does not pay
decent wages to their employees, the rest of us end up with the bill. As
you will see below, huge numbers of Wal-Mart employees end up on Medicaid and
other government assistance programs. Meanwhile, those that control
Wal-Mart continue to enjoy absolutely massive profits. (Read More....)
If
there were any shreds of hope left that the stunning decline of the middle
class could be turned around, Obamacare has absolutely destroyed them.
Over the past decade or so, the middle class in the United States has been absolutely eviscerated. The number of
working age Americans without a job has increased by 27 million since the year 2000, median household
income in the U.S. has fallen for five years in a row, and the poverty
numbers in this country are spiraling out of control. And now
here comes Obamacare. As you will see below, Obamacare is causing
millions of Americans to lose their current health insurance policies, it is
causing health insurance premiums to explode to absolutely ridiculous levels,
and it is systematically killing jobs even though the employer mandate has been
delayed for a while. All of this is creating a tremendous amount of
stress for millions of middle class families that are already stretched
extremely thin financially. According to CNN, a survey that was conducted earlier this year found that 76
percent of all Americans are living paycheck to paycheck. Most of those
families simply cannot afford to pay much higher health insurance premiums for
new policies that also come with much larger deductibles and significantly
increased out-of-pocket costs. Millions of those families will ultimately
end up choosing to do without health insurance altogether, and that will create
a whole host of new problems. This is a disaster that is so enormous that
it is really hard to put into words. If the U.S. health care system was a
separate country, it would be the 6th largest economy on the entire globe all
by itself. And now Obamacare is going to bring the entire U.S. health
care system to its knees. (Read More....)
The
Federal Reserve is creating hundreds of billions of dollars out of thin air and
using that money to buy U.S. government debt and mortgage-backed securities and
take them out of circulation. Since the middle of 2008, these purchases
have caused the Fed's balance sheet to balloon from under a trillion dollars to
nearly four trillion dollars. This represents the greatest central bank
intervention in the history of the planet, and Janet Yellen says that she does
not anticipate that it will end any time soon because "the recovery is
still fragile". Of course, as I showed the other day, the truth is
that quantitative easing has done essentially nothing for the average person on
the street. But what QE has done is that it has sent stocks soaring to
record highs. Unfortunately, this stock market bubble is completely and
totally divorced from economic reality, and when the easy money is taken away
the bubble will collapse. Just look at what happened a few months ago
when Ben Bernanke suggested that the Fed may begin to "taper" the
amount of quantitative easing that it was doing. The mere suggestion that
the flow of easy money would start to slow down a little bit was enough to send
the market into deep convulsions. This is why the Federal Reserve cannot
stop monetizing debt. The moment the Fed stops, it could throw our
financial markets into a crisis even worse than what we saw back in 2008. (Read More....)
Americans
Are Disgusted By BOTH Republicans and Democrats Posted by : George Washington Post date: 10/11/2013 - 60% of Americans Want a Third Party Candidate

Party Candidate’ since there seems to be a morphed one party which could be
aptly called the repdemolicansocrats which has supported failure, obama’s
failure, ultimately at every turn, though contraindicated, favoring that 1%

failure in terms of selling the sizzle ( like Zimbabwee, soaring inflation/asset

China
just dropped an absolute bombshell, but it was almost entirely ignored by the
mainstream media in the United States. The central bank of China has
decided that it is "no longer in China’s favor to accumulate
foreign-exchange reserves". During the third quarter of 2013,
China's foreign-exchange reserves were valued at approximately $3.66 trillion. And of course
the biggest chunk of that was made up of U.S. dollars. For years, China
has been accumulating dollars and working hard to keep the value of the dollar
up and the value of the yuan down. One of the goals has been to make
Chinese products less expensive in the international marketplace. But now
China has announced that the time has come for it to stop stockpiling U.S.
dollars. And if that does indeed turn out to be the case, than many U.S.
analysts are suggesting that China could also soon stop buying any more U.S.
debt. Needless to say, all of this would be very bad for the United
States. (Read More....)
Can
the U.S. government afford to pay for the health care of 38 million more
people? As you will see below, Obamacare is going to be the biggest
expansion of the welfare state in U.S. history. It is being projected
that a decade from now 17 million Americans will be receiving Obamacare
subsidies and an additional 21 million Americans will have been added to the
Medicaid rolls. At a time when we are already running trillion dollar
deficits, is this really something that the government should be taking on?
In addition, it is being projected that bringing millions upon millions of new
people into the Medicaid program will also cause enrollment in many other
federal welfare programs such as food stamps to surge. Right now, the
percentage of Americans that are financially dependent on the U.S. government
is already at an all-time high, and Obamacare is going to cause the level of
government dependence to go much, much higher. But how much weight can
the “safety net” actually carry before it breaks entirely? (Read More.....)
The
more Americans learn about Obamacare, the less they like it. They were
promised that under Obamacare they would be able to keep their current health
insurance plans, that health insurance premiums would be lower, and that
millions more Americans would be able to get coverage. But none of those
promises are turning out to be true. Right now, millions of Americans are
receiving cancellation notices from their health insurance companies –
including many Americans that are in a life or death battle with cancer.
By the end of next year, it is being projected that up
to 100 million more Americans could have their health insurance policies
canceled. Meanwhile, large numbers of Americans are discovering that
their “new plans” are going to cost them two, three, four or even five times as
much as their old plans cost them. You are about to see some shocking
examples of this. And now that the reality of Obamacare is really
starting to sink in for the American people, the popularity of the law is
starting to drop like a rock. According to a brand new
CBS News poll that was just released, only 31 percent of all Americans
still approve of Obamacare while an astounding 61 percent of all Americans now
disapprove of it. Perhaps if we get that number to 70 or 80 percent, the
politicians in Washington D.C. will cave in and we can get this law
repealed. So please share this article with as many people as you
possibly can. The following are 10 Obamacare horror stories that are
almost too crazy to believe… (Read More.....)
Edie Littlefield Sundby: “My grievance
is not political; all my energies are directed to enjoying life and staying
alive, and I have no time for politics. For almost seven years I have fought
and survived stage-4 gallbladder cancer, with a five-year survival rate of less
than 2% after diagnosis. I am a determined fighter and extremely lucky. But
this luck may have just run out: My affordable, lifesaving medical insurance
policy has been canceled effective Dec. 31.
My
choice is to get coverage through the government health exchange and lose
access to my cancer doctors, or pay much more for insurance outside the
exchange (the quotes average 40% to 50% more) for the privilege of starting
over with an unfamiliar insurance company and impaired benefits.”
Patricia in North Carolina:”I am a 62
year old woman who has an individual policy with BCBS of North Carolina.
My premiums are $249.50 per month. I bought the policy when I retired and
moved to NC to be closer to my aging parents. The policy is a high
deductible one with a $2700 deductible, $5000 out of pocket maximum. BCBS
has told me my plan is no longer offered due to Obamacare and that my new plan
will cost $600.55 per month and has a required an out of pocket maximum of
$6350.”
Jacqueline Proctor: Take, for
example, Jacqueline Proctor of San Francisco. She and her husband are in their
early 60s. They have been paying $7,200 a year for a bare-bones Kaiser
Permanente health plan with a $5,000 per person annual deductible. “Kaiser told
us the plan does not comply with Obamacare and the substitute will cost more
than twice as much,” about $15,000 per year, she says.
This
new plan, Kaiser’s cheapest offering for 2014, would consume about 25 percent
of their after-tax income. The new plan still has a $5,000 deductible but
provides coverage for things her current policy does not, such as maternity
care, healthy child visits and coverage for dependents up to age 26. Proctor
has no use for such coverage, since her son is 30.
Gloria Cantor: Gloria Cantor
of Florida has cancer — five brain tumors and tumors in her bones — but she
won’t have the health insurance she has relied on for her treatment for much
longer.
Mrs.
Cantor and her husband, Jay, told WFTV in Orlando that their insurance is being
dropped in order to comply with Obamacare regulations.
“The
Cantors received [a] letter in the mail [that] explains Gloria’s health
insurance will end next summer due to the Affordable Care Act,” reporter Lori
Brown says. “But after promises by President Obama … the Cantors now feel
betrayed. After the insurance company drops them, it will offer them a
different plan that it admits will be more expensive. The Cantors are
especially worried because their doctors cannot assure them that [the MD
Anderson Cancer Center] will still accept the new plan.”
A Zero Hedge Reader: My company,
based in California, employs 600. We used to insure about 250 of our employees.
The rest opted out. The company paid 50% of their premiums for about
$750,000/yr.
Under
obamacare, none can opt out without penalty, and the rates are double or
triple, depending upon the plan. Our 750k for 250 employees is going to $2
million per year for 600 employees.
By
mandate, we have to pay 91.5% of the premium or more up from the 50% we used to
pay.
Our
employees share of the premium goes from $7/week for the cheapest plan to
$30/week. 95% of my employees were on that plan. Remember, we used to pay
50% now we pay 91.5% and the premiums still go up that much!!
The
cheapest plan now has a deductible of $6350! Before it was $150. Employees
making $9 to $10/hr, have to pay $30/wk and have a $6350 deductible!!! What!!!!
They
can’t afford that to be sure. Obamacare will kill their propensity to seek
medical care. More money for less care? How does that help them?
Ashley Dionne: I graduated
from The University of Michigan in 2009. In my state, this used to mean
something, but even with a bachelor’s I was told I was too educated and
wouldn’t stay. I watched as kids with GEDs and high school diploma’s took the
low-paying jobs for which I applied.
I
went back to school and got a second degree and finally found work at a gym. I
work nights and only get 32 hours a week for eight dollars an hour. I’m unable
to find a second job at this time.
I
have asthma, ulcers, and mild cerebral palsy. Obamacare takes my monthly rate
from $75 a month for full coverage on my “Young Adult Plan,” to $319 a month.
After $6,000 in deductibles, of course.
Liberals
claimed this law would help the poor. I am the poor, the working poor, and I
can’t afford to support myself, let alone older generations and people not
willing to work at all.
This law has raped my future.
It
will keep me and kids my age from having a future at all.
This
is the real face of Obamacare and it isn’t pretty.
George Schwab: George
Schwab, 62, of North Carolina, said he was “perfectly happy” with his plan from
Blue Cross Blue Shield, which also insured his wife for a $228 monthly premium.
But this past September, he was surprised to receive a letter saying his policy
was no longer available. The “comparable” plan the insurance company offered
him carried a $1,208 monthly premium and a $5,500 deductible.
A Middle Class Texas Family: Obamacare is
named the “Affordable Care Act,” after all, and the President promised the
rates would be “as low as a phone bill.” But I just received a confirmed letter
from a friend in Texas showing a 539% rate increase on an existing policy
that’s been in good standing for years.
As
the letter reveals (see below), the cost for this couple’s policy under Humana
is increasing from $212.10 per month to $1,356.60 per month. This is for a
couple in good health whose combined income is less than $70K — a middle-class
family, in other words.
Michael Cerpok: “I’ve worked
hard because I’ve had to, and I’ve had to, because cancer runs in my family,”
says Cerpok, who picked his current health insurance based on that family
history. His monthly premium is just about half of his monthly take-home pay.
Back
in 2006, he found out he had an incurable form of leukemia that requires
ongoing treatment until he dies.
In
2012, his treatment bill was more than $350,000. But because of his insurance,
his out-of-pocket was only $4,500.
That’s
about to change because Michael just got a letter from his insurance carrier
saying as of January 1, he would be dropped from coverage because of new
regulations under Obamacare.
Bill
Elliot: Fox News host Megyn Kelly shared a heart
rendering story Thursday night of a South Carolina man with cancer who is being
forced to make what he sees as a life or death decision after his health
insurance plan was cancelled because of Obamacare.
Bill
Elliot, who voted for President Obama, contacted “The Kelly File” via Facebook
and said he can no longer afford to pay his medical bills and does not want to
take on the new costs because he does not want to put a “burden” on his family,
according to Fox News.
Saying
he feels “misled,” Elliott told Kelly his new insurance will cost him $1,500 per
month with a $13,000 deductible, adding that he will opt to pay the minimal
fine for not having health insurance and “will just let nature take its
course.”

So
much of what we have been taught about ancient history is simply not
true. According to Mexico’s National Institute of Anthropology and
History, a team of archaeologists working close to the Mexican village of
Onavas has made an amazing discovery. They reportedly found 13 ancient
human specimens that had grossly elongated skulls. You can find original
photographs of this discovery right here, but the descriptions of the
photos are in Spanish. The Mexican scientists are telling us that these skulls
are approximately 1,000 years old, and that no skulls of this nature have ever
been found in this region of Mexico before. So exactly what is going on
here? Are these elongated skulls simply the product of an ancient
technique known as “cradle-boarding”, or is there another explanation?
Could these actually be Nephilim skulls that prove that an ancient race of
hybrids once roamed the planet? You might want to hold on to your hat –

even blacks / negroes) in referring to the culprits in the following two
incidents (those tender sensibilities) but I’m sure you’ve guessed that they
were niggers and I include same here in light of the foregoing incident (and
yes, the victims were white), which is typical. ‘.. 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
/ nigger 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 / nigger 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 niggers 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

‘Dead or Alive – all niggers’ … whatever the outcome in the investigative
process, the stark reality is that at least, unlike the niggers committing many
more ‘black on white’ violent crimes,
Zimmerman (and this is no endorsement – I won’t be looking at this one
incident all that closely) was at least trying to do a good thing made
necessary by the ever increasing number of brutal crimes committed by the black
thugs in neighborhoods across the nation; then there’s somalian pirates, etc..
People domestically and internationally are suffering from nigger-fatigue and
are totally niggered out. Oh, yeah, there are some Hollywood types who feel good
about themselves having niggers around and helping niggers to help them feel
better than they really are, insecure as they are, by being better than at
least someone beyond fantasy. Loony george clooney is one. Dreadfully boring
and with that monotone, monotonous voice and not that bright, he’s not even
able to fake it on screen as an action hero (ie., batman, what a horrific
miscast) wimpy pussy in reality that he is; then there’s the ‘black (sean)
penn’ who cried like a baby while incarcerated for a couple of days not that
long ago. The atheist jolie, so fatherly troubled as she is, has let the
equally mentally troubled pitt (she so nutty she makes him feel somewhat sane
though still not too bright) and pendulum ‘backwoods bob’ be the closest she’s gotten
to her black projects. Let them live anonomously (in disguise) with the niggers
for some time for a real close look and then see what’s left of their
predisposed love for the nigger. Then there’s the italian scallion, booby
deniro; drug addled as his black wife high-tower, what a total embarrassment to
Italians everywhere; even as he tried to ingratiate himself recently with

People
have become weary of making up excuses for blacks (like obama, holder, etc.).
At some point, as now, people should not be timid about relating the cold,
unvarnished truth statistically / factually about blacks and, ie., black on white violent crime, etc..
From
Pat Buchanan: As for racism, its ugliest manifestation is in
interracial crime, and especially interracial crimes of violence. Is Barack
Obama aware that while white criminals choose black victims 3 percent of the
time, black criminals choose white victims 45 percent of the time? Is Barack aware
that black-on-white rapes are 100 times more common than the reverse, that
black-on-white robberies were 139 times as common in the first three years of
this decade as the reverse? We have all heard ad nauseam from the Rev. Al about
Tawana Brawley, the Duke rape case and Jena. And all turned out to be hoaxes.
But about the epidemic of black assaults on whites that are real, we hear
nothing.
http://www.albertpeia.com/whitesvictimizedbyblacks.htm
The
reality is that blacks are an insoluble problem wherever they are. That’s not
going to ever change; not make-shift/make-work jobs; not programs; not anything
tried or to be tried; hence, they must be treated as exactly that – problems –
before a solution can be derived and fashioned. ] [ Send the niggers, including

Dr. Jim Garrow is a former Nobel Peace Prize nominee. He was
responsible for bringing the military
litmus tests (whether soldiers will fire on American citizens) to light
early in 2013. I believed that story because there have been other sources to
report similar occurrences, including the infamous 29 Palms survey.
About a month ago Dr.
Garrow reported that Tom Clancy and Andrew Breitbart were basically
assassinated by operatives from The Obama Administration. I can actually
believe that could be true. However, the part I had a hard time swallowing was
that Garrow claimed to have this knowledge only because he is a former CIA
Agent. I printed that article, written by Dr. Eowyn but I must admit that the
CIA Agent scenario seemed a bit odd to me.
I have two thoughts on this:
Well those stories seem like back page news compared to the
potential bombshell that Garrow just dropped. I don’t like Barack Obama one
bit. I think he is hell bent on destroying America. But would he nuke America?
Like I said, you will have to decide.
Liberty Digest reprinted two Facebook statuses of Dr. Jim
Garrow from November 18th and 19th that have since been removed by Facebook:
Mr. Obama’s intention was to set
off the three nukes to devastate all computer related systems on the continent
thus taking America back 200 years and guaranteeing a total breakdown in society
and with in one year the death of 300 million Americans. To see how this would
be possible read, “One Second After”. You can get it on Amazon.
We peered over the edge of the
precipice of the death of our civilization and have lived to tell the tale. 3
heroes stood tall for America and the mad man in the white house was stopped
for the first time in his life. He is unsure of what to do just now and he does
not possess the keys to the nuclear submarines nor the two nukes that are now
hidden. For the first time in his life someone said no, meant it, and stopped
him from murder and devastation. The next few days are critical. Be afraid and
go to prepper sites to find out how to save your family, if you can. – Dr. Jim
Garrow, Nov. 18, 2013
In the condominium complex in
Casa Grande, Arizona, where I have a unit, a visit was made yesterday by a
group of 4 men in a black Suburban with lots of antenna’s on the roof. The
management of our large group of condo’s was asked to open the door of my unit.
The badges were a combination of many different alphabet agencies including my
former one. Interesting because after I posted about EMP’s and missing nukes my
phone rang late in the evening and I was requested to cease and desist. My
posts have been removed. I am not however repentant, nor cowed. If anything
like this happens again I have instructed people to begin the release of
documents and information as per prepared plans in the hands of these people.
Obama is known for overplaying his hand, and now should be known far and wide
as a dangerous amateur. He may have gotten Breitbart, Hastings and Clancy, but
they were just writers. I hope that he enjoys the protests today in DC. – Dr.

There
is a hot new game being played in cities all over America, and it is very
simple. You pick out a defenseless person on the street and you try to
knock them out. In most areas, it is known as “the knockout game”.
In some communities it is called by other names such as “point-em-out,
knock-em-out” and “polar bear hunting”. In many instances, the
perpetrators don’t even try to steal anything from the people that they knock
out. The goal is just to “have fun” by brutally attacking an innocent
victim. Well, if this is what young thugs in America will do for fun when
times are still good, what will they be willing to do when our economy really
starts falling apart? Yes, the U.S. economy has
definitely been steadily declining, but the truth is that what we are
experiencing right now is rip-roaring prosperity compared to what is coming in
the years ahead. So what will the streets of America look like when
things get really bad? (Read More.....)
Are you deeply concerned about the
future of America? Is something in your gut telling you that our system
is fundamentally broken and that the mainstream media is not telling you the
truth about what is happening? If so, you are definitely not alone.
Right now, there are millions upon millions of Americans that are absolutely
horrified as they watch this nation deteriorate. In fact, according to an
analysis of recent polling data conducted by Real Clear Politics,
approximately 68 percent of all Americans believe that the country is on the
wrong track and only 23.5 percent of all Americans believe that the country is
on the right track. And of course our problems did not appear just
recently. In fact, many of them are the result of decades of very foolish
decisions and they are not going to be fixed easily. Unfortunately, there
is very little consensus among Americans about how to fix any of our
problems. There is more anger, frustration, hatred and division in the
United States today than there has been in decades, and there is very little
hope that the great storms that are looming on the horizon will be averted.
Those that are wise are preparing for what is coming. Those that are not
are going to be absolutely blindsided by what is rapidly approaching. (Read More....)
The
too big to fail banks have a larger share of the U.S. banking industry than
they have ever had before. So if having banks that were too big to fail
was a "problem" back in 2008, what is it today? As you will
read about below, the total number of banks in the United States has fallen to
a brand new all-time record low and that means that the health of the too big
to fail banks is now more critical to our economy than ever. In 1985,
there were more than 18,000 banks in
the United States. Today, there are only 6,891 left, and that number continues to
drop every single year. That means that more than 10,000 U.S. banks have
gone out of existence since 1985. Meanwhile, the too big to fail banks
just keep on getting even bigger. In fact, the six largest banks in the
United States (JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America, Citigroup, Wells Fargo, Goldman
Sachs and Morgan Stanley) have collectively gotten 37 percent larger
over the past five years. If even one of those banks collapses, it would
be absolutely crippling to the U.S. economy. If several of them were to
collapse at the same time, it could potentially plunge us into an economic
depression unlike anything that this nation has ever seen before. (Read More....)
Have you noticed that this
December is unusually cold so far? Could the fact that we have had a
record number of volcanoes erupt in 2013 be responsible? Certainly an unusually calm solar cycle is playing a
significant role in producing all of this cold weather, but as you will see
below the truth is that throughout human history volcanic eruptions have
produced some of the coldest winters ever recorded. In fact, there have
been some major eruptions that have actually substantially reduced global
temperatures for two to three years. So should we be alarmed that the
number of volcano eruptions this year was the highest ever recorded?
Could it be possible that we are heading for a period of global cooling as a
result? And if the planet does cool significantly, could that lead to
widespread crop failures and mass famine? Don’t think that it can’t
happen. In fact, it has happened before and it is only a matter of time
until it happens again.
I knew that we were seeing an
unusual amount of volcanic activity around the planet so far (Read More...)
When
QE1 ended there was a substantial stock market correction, and when QE2 ended
there was a substantial stock market correction. And if you will
remember, the financial markets threw a massive hissy fit a few months ago when
Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke suggested that the Fed may soon start
tapering QE3. Clearly Wall Street does not like it when their supply of
monetary heroin is interrupted. The Federal Reserve has tricked the
American people into supporting quantitative easing by insisting that it is
about "stimulating the economy", but that has turned out to be a
massive hoax. In fact, I just wrote an article that contained 37 statistics that prove that things just keep
getting even worse for ordinary Americans. But quantitative easing has
been exceptionally good for Wall Street. During
QE1, the S&P 500 rose by about 300 points. During QE2, the S&P
500 rose by about 200 points. And during QE3, the S&P 500 has risen
by about 400 points. The S&P 500 is now in unprecedented territory,
and stock prices have become completely and totally divorced from
reality. In essence, we are in the midst of the largest financial bubble this
nation has ever seen. So what is going to happen when the Fed starts
pulling back the monetary crack and the bubble bursts? (Read More....)
The
“coming persecution of Christians” has already begun. It is already
here. So why is the mainstream media in the United States almost totally
silent about this phenomenon? When some politician somewhere around the
globe inadvertently offends homosexuals or Muslims, it instantly makes headline
news. But very few Americans are even aware that it has been estimated
that 100
million Christians are currently facing persecution and that approximately
100,000 Christians die for their faith each year. As you are about to
see, Christians all over the world are being burned alive, beheaded, crucified,
tortured to death and imprisoned in metal shipping containers just because of
what they believe. This persecution goes on year after year and it is
steadily intensifying. But the governments of the western world and the
mainstream media are almost entirely ignoring what is happening. (Read More.....)
Why are huge numbers of dead birds

mass death events among various populations of fish as well. In addition,
it has been reported that large numbers of polar bears, seals and walruses in

Back in 2009, Al Gore boldly declared that “the entire

peddling. The truth is that the polar ice cap is actually growing.
It is about 50 percent larger than it was at this time last year. And as
you will read about below, a shocking UN report that was recently leaked shows
that the planet has actually not been warming for the past 15 years. So
if you are breathlessly anticipating that “global warming” will soon bring on
the apocalypse, you can stop waiting. On the other hand, there is rising

capita income in the entire country. But now it has become a rotting,
decaying hellhole that the rest of the planet laughs at. And of course
Detroit is far from alone. There are hundreds of other U.S. cities that
are suffering a similar fate. In this article, the focus is going to be
on Camden, New Jersey, but the truth is that there are lots of other
"Detroits" and "Camdens" all over the nation. Jobs

America has been seized by an executive dictatorship.
On this
bombshell Tuesday, December 17 edition of the Alex Jones Show, Alex completely
exposes the accelerated destruction on property rights, privacy rights and
national sovereignty. In New York, police
harassed a man for washing his car in his own private driveway. In national
news, a federal judge in Washington ruled that the NSA's
domestic spying likely violates the Fourth Amendment and is "almost
Orwellian" in scope. He also said that James Madison, the architect of
the Constitution, would be aghast at the agency's dragnet. American lawyer and
activist Larry Klayman

F. Jasper, senior
editor of The New American, also joins the show to explain in detail how the
Trans-Pacific Partnership will erode U.S. sovereignty.
The
unelected central planners at the Federal Reserve have decided that the time
has come to slightly taper the amount of quantitative easing that it has been
doing. On Wednesday, the Fed announced that monthly purchases of U.S.
Treasury bonds will be reduced from $45 billion to $40 billion, and monthly
purchases of mortgage-backed securities will be reduced from $35 billion to $30
billion. When this news came out, it sent shockwaves through financial
markets all over the planet. But the truth is that not that much has
really changed. The Federal Reserve will still be recklessly creating
gigantic mountains of new money out of thin air and massively intervening in
the financial marketplace. It will just be slightly less than
before. However, this very well could represent a very important
psychological turning point for investors. It is a signal that "the
party is starting to end" and that the great bull market of the past four

During
2013, America continued to steadily march down a self-destructive path toward
oblivion. As a society, our debt levels are completely and totally out of
control. Our financial system has been transformed into the largest
casino on the entire planet and our big banks are behaving even more recklessly
than they did just before the last financial crisis. We continue to see
thousands of businesses and millions of jobs get shipped out of the United
States, and the middle class is being absolutely eviscerated. Due to the
lack of decent jobs, poverty is absolutely exploding. Government
dependence is at an all-time high and crime is rising. Evidence of social
and moral decay is seemingly everywhere, and our government appears to be going
insane. If we are going to have any hope of solving these problems, the
American people need to take a long, hard look in the mirror and finally admit
how bad things have actually become. If we all just blindly have faith
that "everything is going to be okay", the consequences of decades of
incredibly foolish decisions are going to absolutely blindside us and we will
be absolutely devastated by the great crisis that is rapidly approaching.

point. The
financialization of America; where Wall Street con artists,shysters and
swindlers rake in billions for shuffling paper and making risky casino bets;
mega-corporations ship blue collar middle class jobs to Asia in an all out
effort to increase quarterly profits; politicians spend future generations into
the poor house in order to get re-elected; and the Federal Reserve purposefully
creates monetary inflation to prop up the corrupt system; has systematically
destroyed the working middle class and created generations of debt slaves. The

The effects of the massive monetary
inflation of recent years are so far mainly reflected in asset prices. Modern art has become a major magnet for
investors, whereby one gets the impression that this is truly a gargantuan
bubble by now. Works of art are unique, so there is really no yardstick by
which one could make sensible comparisons regarding their valuations, except to
note that prices today are at multiples of the prices paid in the
not-too-distant past. When a Japanese insurance company bought van Gogh's
'Vase with Fifteen Sunflowers' for $39.7 million in 1987, the world was shocked
that anyone would shell out so much money for a single painting. It was rightly
seen as an outgrowth of Japan's bubble excesses of the 1980s at the time. Today
it actually looks like they made a great investment. No-one bats an eyebrow
anymore at anything that is not sold for more than $100 million. So
if you ever wonder whether there is really an inflationary bubble underway, the
answer is clearly, yes, there is.

There is a rising belief that when the Federal Reserve begins
to taper that interest rates are set to rise. It is believed that as
rates rise due to stronger economic strength that the stock market will act as
a hedge against falling bond prices. However, historically speaking rotating

Establishment
Attacks Vitamins With Hoax Study
Infowars.com | Alex Jones and
Anthony Gucciardi counter the establishments attack on vitamins and health
suppliments.
On this
Wednesday, December 18 edition of the Alex Jones Show, Alex covers the latest
effort by corporate medicine and the establishment media to discredit and
disparage the efficacy of vitamin supplements as the war on the health of the
American people continues. Alex takes a look at comments by a former top NSA
official who recently declared the United States is now effectively a police
state and said the Stasi surveillance grid is not only for political crimes of
those opposed to the bankster regime in control of government, but is also
designed to facilitate the wholesale prosecution of petty crimes related to
drugs and taxes. Guests today include anarcho-capitalist author and editor, Lew
Rockwell, who is the founder and chairman of the Ludwig von Mises
Institute. Alex also talks with Pennsylvania resident Ricardo Nieves,
who went before the Reading city council to complain about the constitutional
abuse conducted by local cops in collaboration with a private firm financed by a
number of federal agencies stopping motorists and attempting to intimidate them
into surrendering a DNA swab.
