@Stacy … Jibber Jabber
Just an idea that might help you keep the website clean :
Let people start Jibber-Jabber posts with say “#JJ” as a flag .
At say 6:00 AM GMT, you could run a filter to sort the Jibber-Jabber from the meat.
The “filtered” article could then have a “ComboBox” with the options “On Topic only” and “All” …. the default being “On Topic Only” ; “All” would include the Jibber-Jabber .
Just an idea and easy to do.
@Mike2liverpool .. good man , well done !
Hey! Max said internet and virtual property is inherently deflationary, can u guys expand on that sometime? Maybe thats part of the FEDS plan to remove money. First they print unlimited moneys, then print unlimited virtual assets that you are then required to buy to soak it back up. Maybe the FED is like gold farmers now and can go into the digital asset business like world of warcraft later.
Hey! Since people without children have no stake in the future, should they be barred from positions of power since they have a conflict of interest with long term planning? Afterall, why bother to invest in a future they won’t see, they have a clear interest in burning the future for the here and now. Only people with children have a clear interest in the tommorow. Your thoughts.
Stacy…thanks for agregating news. This is my first stop whenever I want to know whats goin on now. The LATOC doom forums are still an invaluable news resource though. Alot of noise, but you can be days or even weeks ahead of the regular news if you visit them. Kinda like Alex Jones I think.

Dutch DSB bank possible bankrupt; http://www.dutchnews.nl/news/archives/2009/10/dsb_bank_on_verge_of_collapse.php
Guess they didnt have enough invested in weapons like ING or just totally fuck up by being too greedy like ABN Amro/Fortis. So will the dutch government nationalise it and let one of their cronies run the bank? like abn or do they let their cronies at DSB cook in their own juice? (DSB bank has over the years employed quite some politicians). Facinating to see the propaganda blaming the banksters for their bonusses, people for taking their money away, lending too much or too important system bank too fail “too connected” but never a word about derivatives about speculators anything like that.
Something else; now here in Holland there is talk about working 2 years longer slowly implemented over decades (because the younger generation is too busy/doesn’t pay attention; and not to piss off the “older” generations). The reason is the demographic changes/more elderly, rising health costs and ofcourse the recent bail out. Yet in 2010 100 million euro a day is added to the state debt. One of the biggest labour unions FNV had a slogan in the beginning; something like together we shall solve the crisis. They had to come up with a plan to save a couple billion, they failed because they couldnt get to an agreement with employers. So now the politics will raise the retirement age; atleast now proposed (like lisbon treaty will sail trough eventually). The people are being sold out by politicians and their unions. Even worse right wing extremists like the PVV are gaining ground; who totally have no solutions at all only criticise current policy. My point is; The speculators, bankers have created this crisis then got tax money to bail their bad bets and inflated assets out; then the governments have to pay more debt interest/have bigger deficits. The politicians cut social programs/don’t use the taxmoney of the people for the people; blame the unions for not reaching agreement. Yet not 1 politician says; don’t we need to deal with the private central banking system to be able to repay our debt or shouldn’t we really start regulating the derivatives better. I bet no one has to work 1 day more than the current retirement age, health care can be paid for and pensions don’t have to be slashed if those problems were dealt with properly and bad banks just fail. I just can’t believe that there’s no outrage; if i would tell my boss, gee i spend too much now you have to work 2 years longer, would he accept that? Or slashing pensions monthly pay raising premiums, because the pension funds always get suckered in the ponzi schemes of market manipulation. Not even beginning about the rest of the corruption and cronyism. But thats the “benefit” of democracy as long as 51% is braindead and accepts it, who’s going to stop them? with the “new” EU even easier to dictate.
Which way will the cookie crumble ?
Excerpt from John Mauldin’s newsletter (Killing the Goose http://www.frontlinethoughts.com/gateway.asp)
What Were We Thinking?
As a culture, the current mix of generations, especially in the US, has made some choices. Choices which, in hindsight, leave the adult in us asking, “What were we thinking?”
We made a series of bad choices and suffered the credit crisis because of it. Now, as a nation, we are in the middle of making an even worse choice, one that will leave us with no good choices – only choices of pretty bad to awful. Let’s begin with a quote from a recent client letter by my friends at Hayman Advisors (in Dallas).
“Western democracies, communistic capitalists, and Japanese deflationists are concurrently engaging in what may be the largest, global financial experiment in history. Everywhere you turn, governments are running enormous fiscal deficits financed by printing money. The greatest risk of these policies is that the quantitative easing will persist until the value of the currency equals the actual cost of printing the currency (which is just slightly above zero).
“There have been 28 episodes of hyperinflation of national economies in the 20th century, with 20 occurring after 1980. Peter Bernholz (Professor Emeritus of Economics in the Center for Economics and Business (WWZ) at the University of Basel, Switzerland) has spent his career examining the intertwined worlds of politics and economics with special attention given to money. In his most recent book, Monetary Regimes and Inflation: History, Economic and Political Relationships, Bernholz analyzes the 12 largest episodes of hyperinflations – all of which were caused by financing huge public budget deficits through money creation. His conclusion: the tipping point for hyperinflation occurs when the government’s deficit exceed 40% of its expenditures.
“According to the current Office of Management and Budget (OMB) projections, US federal expenditures are projected to be $3.653 trillion in FY 2009 and $3.766 trillion in FY 2010, with unified deficits of $1.580 trillion and $1.502 trillion, respectively. These projections imply that the US will run deficits equal to 43.3% and 39.9% of expenditures in 2009 and 2010, respectively. To put it simply, roughly 40% of what our government is spending has to be borrowed. [Emphasis mine]
“One has to ask whether the US reached the critical tipping point. Beyond the quantitative measurements associated with government deficits and money creation, there exists a qualitative aspect to such a scenario that may be far more important. The qualitative perceptions of fiscal and monetary policies are impossible to control once confidence is lost. In fact, recent price action in metals, the dollar and commodities suggests that the market is already anticipating the future.”
Let me point out that the deficits for 2010 assume a rather robust recovery, and so they could turn out to be much worse, especially if unemployment continues to rise and Congress decides (rightly) to extend unemployment benefits.
The interest on the national debt in fiscal 2008 was $451 billion. Even though the debt has exploded, the interest for fiscal 2009 is down to “only” $383 billion. My back-of-the-napkin estimate says that is over 20% of total 2009 tax receipts. I guess when you take interest rates to zero and really load up on short-term debt, it helps lower interest costs. (More on that future problem later.) http://www.savingsbonds.gov/govt/reports/ir/ir_expense.htm
The fiscal deficits are projected to be about 11% of nominal GDP, which is now roughly $14.3 trillion. The Congressional Budget Office currently projects that deficits will still be $1 trillion in ten years.”

Sounds like this Bernholz character could be an interesting guy to get ahold of?
Hey! Can you guys recommend a good chart website? I want to be able to do operations in the chart field though.

Is there a chart site that lets you get crazy with operations? I cant find any. Thanks in advance for any answers.

“BANK customers are losing out on $10 million a day in interest because of the mistaken fear smaller banks could collapse because of the global financial crisis.
Money has poured into the Big Four banks – which offer lower interest rates compared to many smaller banks, credit unions and building societies – because investors feel their savings are safer there, The Daily Telegraph reports. “
How do you think the internet will die?
Heres my 3 ideas…
1 Taxation from money hungry governments begins in earnest and goes overboard.
2 With energy costs increasing, ISPs switch to a pay per hour system that destroys the casual 6 hour surfing that has shifted so many away from watching TV to watching a computer. Parents won’t tolerate hourly rates since they use it to babysit, they will go back to using the TV instead. Online gaming will become prohibitively expensive and the rush for gaming companies to make every idea an online game will die.
3 Privacy and control issues will sanitize and ‘gulag state’ the internet to the point of being more a hassle than a usefull tool. Peer to peer internet factions may spring up to compete with the public internet as well as private high speed backbones just for corporations and government. The public realm (common wealth) , like in the meat world will suffer and become 3rd world.
@Chenjeshu … “How do you think the internet will die?”
All 3 … already i progress !

FYI: this bank must be considered the sub-prime money lender of the Netherlands.
The CEO (Scheringa) is highly connected with our VVD-party and several VVD ex politicians are on his paylist. (is there such a thing as an EX-politician??)
Last year Scheringa paid himself a hefty 11million euros worth of divident. 75million went into a fund that sponsors a soccerclub and manages Scheringa’s art collection…

Auferre trucidare rapere falsis nominibus imperium, atque ubi solitudinem faciunt, pacem appellant. (To ravage, to slaughter, to usurp under false titles, they call empire; and where they make a desert, they call it peace. — Oxford Revised Translation). the preceding was a wiki quote from Tacitus ‘Agricola’ used to indoctrinate generations of english school boy types before going out to spread their disease to the rest of the world , how to do your job even under a bad imperial ruler of the day Tacitus knew a thing or two about this kind of thing his lines are worth remembering as not much has changed since then it’s a good couple of lines and worth reflecting upon.
Internet control will relatively simple. When broadband is available globally, non-military/intelligence/finance operating systems will become thin clients accessing applications and databases stored at central government-run locations. I.E. you will not be able to install anything on your own computer – and if you can manage to, they’ll shut it down remotely.
They will control the medium and the message. If the message needs to change from one day to the next – “we have always been at war with Eurasia” – then they will just do it. There will be no evidence of yesterday’s contradiction left and you can’t say shit about it. They might even use Orwell’s name for the governing body: MiniTruth.
It’s already happening under the guise of integrating your TV as an “connected appliance” that will inevitably dumb down the internet and turn it into an “entertainment” vehicle, and the only “news” you get will be the corporate party line.
Of course it’s going to take a pretty major false flag event to push this through…maybe something like “terrorists” infiltrating a nuclear plant’s network and killing a few million people in the process. I put nothing past these vermin.
Jay Rockefeller is already on the record: “the internet should never have happened.”
On the bright side, we will probably have a global nuclear war before we become 100% mindless spoon-fed drooling loons. We’ll be able to start over. A few of us anyway.

interesting stuff about the anarchists…maybe a little simplistic and to just blame… j.edga…nevermind..something that has always stuck in my mind… is that before the wars the world was in this state of political flux.. and… yeah round here…and in the east end was the place in the UK where lots and lots of poor immigrants from around the world, mixed and swapped ideas…also there was a lot of jewish anarchists before the second world war,here in the UK who migrated to the fascist party, when they became too radical… same in italy and other countries… this was before hitler changed the agenda…so that people like mussolini had to play catch up and get rid of all the high ranking jews in italian government and the fascist party…which was just another political party before the introduction of hitlers brand of anti-semitism… and had been around for at least 15 years…sorry if this don’t make sense…but after you eat breakfast you really don’t expect to see it again…oohh gotta go!!!

Is the UK Pound a leading indicator?
Recently we have heard a lot about the US Dollar etc., but clearly the focus of MSM (much like the Eye of Sauron) has become a bit too fixated on the US … With this in mind, I find it alarming that amidst all this US Dollar doom and gloom of late, the British Pound is actually falling relative to the most despised currency on the planet! So, while everyone is worried about the US Dollar hyper-inflating, what is the capacity of the UK to inject further liquidity into its banking system, without risking a run on the Pound?
the romans were right ,they should have put every practicing judeau christain to the sword ,the advent of christianity and its wholesale adoption by the west has set us back 1000 years, science ,art , learning everything went backwards skills were lost it was the christains who were intolerant of others religions and beliefs and refused and persecuted others for doing so . the romans must be judged not by the standards of today but by the standards of the ancient world and by the standards of the ancient world they were very tolerant and inclusive that is the real secret to how they ruled such a vast empire for as long as they did it is not possible to do this by military means alone. i hope all christains burn in hell . three cheers for judas !

I started going off on a tangent making elaborate comparisons to being
reincarnated into a cat or the like, but having no awareness of it,…
After about 10 seconds of rambling,..I noticed her eyes were glazed over
you know,..bit like when you catch a rabbit in your headlights,…
So I think a get what Stacy means,….hmm sort of,…you crazy fk!! : )
@ SG…..I think Murray Rothbard coined anarcho-capitalsim because like he said, “Anarchy is the fullest expression of capitalism, and capitalism is the fullest expression of anarchy.” Anarchy and capitalism defined everything he lived and stood for: abolition of the state, and the absolute liberty to exchange capital on a voluntary basis.
@Dan valley,…..yeah, I think the latest chick to win the Nobel prize for economics will concur with that,….can’t remember her name,….hmm,…from some Nordic country

However, finding this text in Wikipedia is quite hard.

@ DEDO….Thomas Jefferson stated that governments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed, and that whenever governments become destructive of liberty it is the duty of citizens to abolish that government and replace it with a new one. (I might add: Or replace it with no government!) Are we there yet?
@Phil:
Yes, assuming it isn’t a hoax. That’s why I included the ?.
But it’s no hoax that the sdr is being quickly phased in and the dollar is being thrown out. And why is the price of oil stable?

Thoughts about selling off the Royal Mint??
The darkness is upon us, and the camel of hope holds no water. Our thirst shall be quenched with nickles, pennies, and dimes, and even then we will be short on change.
I am so deep
in this hole of darkness, and wish to go the way of the camel, in a sand storm, with no rubber ducky to save me from th land of nickles, pennies, and dimes.
How is that for jobber jabber?

@Stacy .. Thoughts about selling off the Royal Mint??

Well, I suppose he owns all the Gold anyway !
The mint is just the coinage machinery for selling coins to the public isn’t it !

golds moving again folks 1058
Don’t know if anyone has noticed or not, but on the commodeties front, especially oil, american companies like “Excon” are losing major oil fields. Recently, Excon had to quit exploration in Hungary while the Chinese have been gaining in Iraq with BP. Also, BP just struck an oil field in the Gulf of Mexico… It seems that the Chinese are now beating us on this front also…
