That’s not my impression of ICN.
Do you know if someone sponsors them ?

As to climate change … to put it simply, the “economic growth mantra” is geared to never-ending short-term profits which inevitably will destroy the planet’s “natural inhabitants” . You only need to look around to see it happening.
The arrogance of the human race in thinking they will one day have enough (scientific) power to (successfully) control nature is just ludicrous. We are a “subset of nature”, nothing more, despite what all the religious freaks want to believe.
JMHO FWIW

Those guys at AIG should get a bonus like in the olden days.
They should lose a finger every time they dip into company funds.
Imagine the accountants trying to add up without any fingers?!
In fact, by now they would be down to the elbow.

The oldest stories always tell about the devil wispering truths until he can tell a lie and steal your soul. Not that I’m a believer, but the method is univerally adapted in the media.

The main lie told is that climate change and all action against it is nonsense. It think that issue is a good litmus test of any media channel, because if a channel doesn’t tell you climate action should be priority nr. one and the real tax we pay is called pollution and environmental devestation, it’s chills at work.

ZH: Denninger Goes On Air, One Minute Twenty Seconds Of Airtime Ensues

.. ” Karl – do what I did, and invite Dennis or whoever else to Market Ticker. I am still waiting for a response to my personal invitation. Maybe then you will have the opportunity to discuss the issues that truly concern you, and not have CNBC redirect to totally irrelevant concepts such as blogger anonymity, which the host subsequently spends another segment tryingto pin the issue on. ” …

Nice !

Kohn tries a con…

Very simple.

If the dollar were still linked to gold at $35 an ounce, as it was from the 1930′s to 1971, you could just stick money into a mattress, and the buying power 20 years later would be identical. That is antipodal to the desire to create incentive to investment in the stock market.

Inflation requires that EVERYBODY take risk just to stay even. The entire population needs to become risk-takers just to preserve buying power. This is especially evil when one considers that the money in question has already been taxed, both hidden and overtly, to an effective 60 to 70% level, leaving only about 30% after paying all the hidden and stated taxes. Then, that 30% needs to be risked in sketchy and questionable enterprises like the stock market, if one isn’t to lose all one’s buying power over time. That opens the door for the professional thieves to steal the remaining 30%, be it from naked shorting, or commissions, or an outright rigged game. Nobody would play that game, AS THEY DIDN’T from 1930 to 1971. Once the population had to risk in order to just stay even, the markets took off.

It really is pretty straightforward. We’ve been getting screwed for a long time. This is just the most obvious and overtly usurious example.
