Naturally it had all the major douchbags and even a surprize appearance by John Mack.
I find waterboarding rather puts me in a zen state …lol
Oh, Dan Valley, I only meant I couldn’t be strong through waterboarding: it breaks the spirit.
But one hopefully avoids those unpleasant moments!
@snoots…..exactly…what is held as truth from the establishment changes from day to day yr to yr. etc….and sadly we have to operate in that system depite what each of us hold to be true as individuals….only those that can endure the vasilating public truths with as much of themselves intact will prosper. Waterboarding is what waterboading is to you madame….waterboading cant take anything away from me that I dont allow to be.
@DanValley:
Don’t think I’d survive waterboarding with my soul intact.
Endurance is more important than truth.
Truth is what is true to you, DanValley!
What up again with Gold? Futures chart looking like buyers came in big over in Europe and elsewhere right at open. Anyone have some news or is this just the way its going to be from now on? Who knows?
Please i need ideas on whether to take possession of the precious metal I buy or just have GoldMoney store it in their vault. Some say only take delivery but then the problem of the U.S. government confiscating the bullion. Any comments on this would be most welcome. I do not like paying high premiums on vintage coins and think that a racket. I do not like having to find my own vault since who do you trust in the event of a government confiscation. But without delivery and with all the tungsten out there how do you know if what you are buying is the real deal.
Comments invited, best, bb
@ snoots….what do you see yourself as….tough one right?….I only need the essentials to survive aS we all do,my mantra is:
Endurance is more important than truth.
@ Warburg Sidney
Thanks for the links. Indeed, it is a very odd story. What are we now at, three conflicting tales.
1. A nutty, abusive real estate agent.
2. Someone who threathened to blow up the White House (from LA)
3. A secret Mossad agent spilling the beans.
Things that make you go hmmmm indeed.
I just cannot wait to see what comes up next on the myriad of disinfo sites.
@TBone
Great comment.
DanValley:
Never thought WW2 for you but of you being clever and capable of surviving without essentials.
The federal witness metaphor was toooo funny.
Just stumbled across this blog post examining the economic crisis by the BBC Newsnight Economics editor. Thought it may be of interest to people here.

@tofu cholly
I was a bit tired to appreciate your link last night… I checked it more closely and I saw youri and Mother Earth with xmas hats on eating dinner in the background, remember in 2000 there was some mad shit going down!!!
I like Frances perspective on life,..let it be.
To many control freaks out there IMO.
The thing is though,..”freedom” in a structured society is the antithesis of the system.
Which is why, those who crave it, should just keep quiet and get on with it.Try not to rattle the cage, cause the animals will get restless, and realize they are in a cage. They will claw and fight and spit, to bring you back in. : )
So to all you animals out there (you know who you are) just keep grazing. Baa baaa baaaa

Eh,
Zero interest only means you don’t need to pay for your money. The fed still requires you to put up some assets for your money, but in an age of derivatives I guess that is not that hard. Inflation is caused but the increase of the money supply, not only by the availability of the money at no cost.
Brzezinski is right, I suspect the appraoch to war in Afganistan has another motive which is to disable the convetional warfare option. But a smart president that does his job right will make a deal to use the nuclear fule for domestic purposes, instead of waging war with it..
Instead of debating youri´s god or godlessnes it is wiser to go over what that Brzezinski guy really is saying!
PS my comments may not have been directly attributed to the show as I only started listening… but also in relation to some of the other comments in other shows in the last few weeks. So apologies if it is a bit off! I’m continuing to listen to the show as we speak now…
Cheers!
Max & Stacey,
You have a great show! Been listening to you guys for 2 years now. One of the only beefs I have with what you guys say is in regards to global warming… you guys are quite influential and I don’t know it’s because you guys just want to focus on finance and markets but your comments on global warming – i believe can be more constructive. The media tries to divide the camps into deniers and believers – but the crux of the scientific debate is in regards to anthroprogenic global warming and CO2 – and not those who believe or don’t believe global warming is happening. It might be… it’s not good to waste! But getting into a draconian CO2 tax – which is essentially a tax on breathing – is not going to help fund research into less poluting sources of energy – it is merely going to line the pockets of the bureacracy that levies the tax at the expense of everyone else in the name of the environment.
It’s very different to the defacating in the room analogy which though hillarious I find misleading. There is incentive for all to have a sewerage system as a means of waste disposal. There is no incentive for all to have a carbon tax as only those who can afford it will survive – a further tax on energy – READ the money powers – with more giant financial industries to support the bureacracy (at the expense of the real economy). It is not designed for the well being of the people – it is designed for the well being of the environment. Actually no – it is made to look like it is designed for the well being of the environment.
Also as you correctly point out that the whilstle is being blown on (to use a phrase you like to use) “rigged” science.
What has happened in the world of “rigged markets” and finance in the last few years and what you have helped deconstruct and explain so eloquently is now happening to the world of rigged science (and politics).
Yes its’ not good to waste. Yes coal isn’t very “clean”. Yes, petrol may be running out. But to condemn the technology and call it a pollutant when it was what has increased standards of living in the world is to bite the hand that feeds you (e.g. coal). Let’s also ask – what is the cost of not using it?
Every human innovation and invention has gone through a phase of failure. I’m sure if we keep thinking in a constructive way we can still solve our energy dilemma. Will there be failure along the way, that I’m sure. But they didn’t build the 747 overnight.
Sometimes people get caught up with good intentions and can then be easily manipulated. Let’s not confuse the environmental movement and the push for cleaner energy with climate change and a rationale for a tax on breathing. We should not scrap technology that has helped power the last century without finding the alternative for this century. More and more, it’s the same type of fear mongering that Paulson and his gang used to extort their 23 trillion from congress. Let’s not let the UN and some political, pseudo-scientific organization use the same fear mongering to extort the last remains of our freedoms and sovereignity.
Just because good feelings accompany an idea does not make it a good idea. The road to hell is paved with good intentions and history is littered with many such examples. Or maybe it was always propaganda? We’ll never trully know.
The devil is ALWAYS in the detail. There’s a financial side to this Max & Stacey – the proposed carbon taxes. I’m sure if you delve deep enough to the financial mechanics you may find the true finance, markets and scandal in this topic.
Keep up the good work nonetheless.
Cheers!

@frances snoot
Glad you apreciate it cause it was a lot of work. These people are realy crazy and the lie is big enough (like Hitler said) to make it very difficult to convince anybody that they are actually acting out these develish plans. The economic chaos is just one part of it unfortunately.
Youri…Fate is Superstition….Superstition is FEAR…Faith is Trust.
@Y’all
IMO the internet is what it is… sometimes an idiot magnet… sometimes quite useful… how much is too much???
So, tryingb to find out who’s trying to kill you also a waste of time? Quess not. Let me be clear hear. The satanist are acting out the self fullfilling provecy of the many 2012 conspiracies.
Not only will millions of people die of hunger starvation but at the same time the evil satanist are spreading weaponized virusses all over the globe. If you don’t believe me now you will later.
So we’ve got a collusion of a global financial melt down together with genocide true the virusses and starvation which later will completed with the start of WOIII in order to conflict maximum chaos and death.

Head of the Barberians Zbigniew Brzezinski
Brzezinski: “Its easier to kill a million people…than it is to control them” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wKzEpQc-yo8
“And these new and old mayor powers face still yet another novel reality in some respects unprecedented.
And it is that while the lethality the lethality of their power is greater than ever.
Their capacity to oppose control over the politically awakened masses of the world is at A historical low.
I once put it rather bundchendly and I was flattered that the British foreign secretary repeated this, as follows;
Namely in earlier times it was easier to control an million people literally it was easier to control an million people than physically, to kill a million people.
Today it is infinitely easier to kill a million people, than to control a million people.
It is easier to kill than to control.
(Brzezinski breaths-sniffs true is nose inside; sniffffff)
And of course that bears directly on the use of force particular by societies that are culturally alien over other societies.”

@frances – Many thanks for the cream tip. The bruises aren’t bad as far as pain; I do have throbbing & radiating pain alongside the bone just below my right ear . . . it hurts a little just to turn my head. I didn’t know that I got hit there until I tried to go to sleep last night and couldn’t b/c it was throbbing so bad. The worst of it is coming to grips with who did it, and in knowing that she cares not at all that she terminated our relationship forever last night.
@ Phil – Thanks for the link about the grammar/comprehensive schools. I think it’s generally true that at all levels, class divisions are reproduced. To a certain degree, it’s inevitable. One of the biggest concerns that I have now for our education system is the push for more privatization. I think it’s unfortunate that Obama’s Ed. Secretary is a believer in transforming more public schools into charter schools. The guy has a BA in sociology, which leads me to believe that he had a pretty superficial education, himself, because I know very few sociologists or educators who think that further gutting public education is a good thing.
@ Supergeek – Don’t know what I’ve done to deserve being “the heartbeat,” but thanks for being sweet. I hope Don’s okay, too. Last I knew, he was thinking about letting his place go into foreclosure, and then either getting out of the country or trying to live in a mobile home somewhere.
@ all – The EPA found uranium in Nevada’s water wells:

I don’t care about what country you do or don’t live in… though I do feel some places are less tainted by the west and solitude is still available if that is what you seek… I was only trying to make a point about people being in touch with themselves and being able to act on it!!!
Bobby Rubin’s Welt is packed with Full-Moons as WELL…..it’s that Emerson in ‘im me guess.
Methinks you protest too much, Lord Jim. So? You do believe in a literal “hell” don’t you. All those who try to control the beliefs of others through a concensus called truth usually have a place to put those who are, er, difficult.
And if one always has full moons then there would be no descriptive term for full moon seeing as definitions are based on the reliance on the absence of the quantifier. We define day by the absence of night.
You represent the patriarchy which defines life through the death of the feminine. Your moon is always dark.

Humans are Principles; NOT agents. Imago Dei is Purpose; NOT WILL( craving//cunning). Only in moments of Mercy do we RIVAL(not OPPOSE) the Creator.

@Max,
Grand unified inflation/deflation theory. So what you’re saying is that the macro trend is global cooling; and although there was (is? according to anecdotal evidence of shorts in Nov. in Paris) evidence of global warming, it’s just a blip in the overall trend?
So is Gold deflating? Or are prices just deflating in gold prices?
@frances snoot

Stupid questions – Stupid answers.
Frankly I dispise the Dutch cause they are much more ignorant MTF’s than even the Americans. They wouldn’t even notice enetring into the gas chambers they are so fuckin stupid. They havn’t got the slightest idea what is going on now in the States and they will never find out cause by that time they will all die from their freaken vaccins and stuff.
Phil: You made some comment about how great grammar schools are…
… You then went on to explain building pressure in society at that time to create equal opportunities for others, and your resentment of that due to a perceived injustice.
What you experienced is the flip-side to a coin which those excluded from the grammar school system endured far longer. Hence – in the sixties, things boiled over.
Good luck to you…. I am not jealous. And, by the way, I just lurve books too… all learning in fact. Reading is not an exclusive pastime for the noble elite. And yes comprehensives are a bit rough, some kids do not adapt well to the pressures of having to compete for everything at a ‘street’ level.
However, segregation is wrong in all walks of life and grammar schools did not provide a fair or equal method of education. It nurtured flaneurs and factory workers. Officers and squaddies. A corrupt mentality.

Just reading – Adam Hamilton is usually very good reading .
@SG .. if I’m supposed to take your remarks seriously, well, I suppose I’d better continue…
a) I have known a lot of snobs and I am not one of them
b) I have “earned” every penny and have never been privileged except by the people that trusted my work and paid me for it
c) I have lived in rough areas and prefer not to go back there
In the 60′s in the UK, there was a lot of “anti snobbery” around , propagated especially by the Labor Party. Anyone who wanted to get on was considered a snob and was mobbed or beaten up if he was in the wrong school. It was very much a case of everyone preferring their neighbour to be one of the “have nots” or else he was suspicious and disliked because he/she tried to get on. Pseudo-communism if you like.
This was not just the case in schools, but also in British companies where there was “them” and “us” segregation.
A little story…
I worked on an assembly line at IBM in South England for a while on a 6 month contract. Some of the guys were on heavy drugs, and I remember always giving a particular druggie called “Tom” some of my “assemblies” so that he didn’t get sacked … he introduced me to Joni Mitchell for which I am eternally grateful. Our particular line-manager was very narrow mined and got a lot of contra from me , because I always stuck up for the workers on the line that were IMO treated with a lack of respect. One day, that manager called me into his office 1 month before my contract was due to end, and started off with “Phil, you’re a very intelligent guy, so …..” — the rest I knew before he said it. I told him what I thought about his management style, and got sacked with 4 weeks free pay , i.e. he wanted me off the site before there was a revolution caused by my presence.
By coincidence, at the same time while I was working there, I used to play squash with the managing director, a very nice guy … he told me a few months later that the assembly line guys had gone on strike and as a result , the manager had been “re-deployed” elsewhere.
I also applied for a programming job there afterwards. The interview that the personell department gave me was like a police interrogation. It put me off completely , and thought “What a bunch of w*nkers”.
Their pathetic aptitude test, I passed with 100% BTW .. it was I that said no to them .
Glad I didn’t take the job, because I would othersie missed a very inetresting career path afterwards.
If you want to be one of the “have nots” , best of luck.
If you want to get on in life, it doesn’t make you a snob does it !

Supergeek! The horrid metallic conduit has delivered you from jinx!!!
my thoughts about what Super said
It’s true that there is a system of importance everywhere and that education plays into that system. But that doesn’t make education bad. A gun is not the murder weapon: it is a man pulling the trigger. As long as one is free to better oneself then one should take advantage to do so: be it reading, or sports, or art, or music, or just nature loving. That’s easy.
What’s hard is allowing the bitterness to go away for wanting to be important. Important is nothing really except a chance to stand uptop a dirt mound for a bit and shout. No one is going to care when the stander is just as much dust as the mound.
And being thankful is more important than having a lot of nice stuff. Being free is most important of all: more important than living even.
@frances

@Supergeek:
Books are nice. The nice part about books is they don’t hurt you. They are friends in fair and foul.
If I have put myself over anyone due to liking to read, then forgive me. But I think it is a good thing to go to college to learn other people’s perspectives. If college is a free environment to speak, that is.
I don’t believe that education is an indicator of intelligence. Education is a tool.
If you want to learn things, Supergeek, then do it. You don’t have to go to school to read books. And saying books are bad is really a sad choice.

All politicans are the same. If they begin their careers with good intentions, they are bought out of their moralistic ventures with cold hard cash , if this does not work, they are killed or inlfected with a well known deadly disease.
The system as a whole must be destroyed, not one part of it is viable.
True capitalism, socialism, communism no longer exits. All that exists is corporatism , corruption, false statistics , and twisted markets. This is all sprinkled in with media propoganda barrages, mass ugenics programs and greed.

“Is it realistic to expect a bunch of 18 year old people just entering college to assemble in protest of a war?”
The Iraq war began in 2003. That would mean the 18-year-olds were 12 at the time the war started. But maybe those 12-yr-olds were born to Americans who might have protested: perhaps they did. But even if the 18-year-olds did not have an opportunity to protest they would be called into guilt under a system of collective scapegoating run by the Eurocrats.
It makes you wonder why Stacy and Max refuse to address the UN mandates which have prolonged the Iraq war. That would mean all of Europe lies in collective guilt seeing as the Security Council is represented by:
“There are 15 members of the Security Council, consisting of five veto-wielding permanent members (China, France, Russia, United Kingdom, United States) and ten elected non-permanent members with two-year terms. This basic structure is set out in Chapter V of the UN Charter.”

@SG .. I was expelled at the age of ten I think… and I never went back or looked back.
Impressive … age of 10 “I think” ? … so you hadn’t learned to count by then ?
PS: I’m not “stuck up” BTW !
@BF skinner
Probably relvant to your question: I wonder why the young are so disenfranchised in society. Why can’t 12 year olds vote? Why could they not object to the war? They function as an exploitation tool to get to the income of the parents, and are used as cannon fodder in unprovoked wars, then (if they are smart) made hostage of ant university system, to start working out of debt. It seems virtually every avanu of exploitation of the young is covered..
Is it realistic to expect a bunch of 18 year old people just entering college to assemble in protest of a war?
Those that debate within a system, about the system, are bound by it’s rules, and are lost forever in its absurdity.
Only a few dare walk on the grass! : )
@spellchecker
I could smell hypocrites and liars by the time I was seven… and another advantage of taking care of yourself at that age was after two years of school at most… I was expelled at the age of ten I think… and I never went back or looked back… yeah even then… I would fuck with anything that moved if it bullshitted me!!!

Bonn, real estate and land are leveraged assets that could see their prices fall regardless of sentiment due to an erosion of banks’ deposit bases forcing further credit contraction. There is no motive to keep fiat currency in bank accounts at no interest.
Less than a quarter percent of Americans owning gold is even worse than I suspected. Sounds like extremely easy pickings for the government to me. Considering what they did after their little Sept 11th slight of hand, in the rubble of busted banks, unions, pensions, and safety nets, Americans should be expecting another New Deal type theft. Except in this age, hiding gold ownership will be far more difficult and dangerous. If a digital currency is brought in, good luck getting fair value for criminally owned gold.

@ frances snoot – Yes I was totally against Iraq and the Banker Bailout. I called my representatives in Congress and would have been happy to have participated in protests, but none happened.
I also agree with Bill Moyers that a draft should be reinstated. That would keep the US out of these foreign wars. In addition there should be a ban on the use of contractors by the military. This is another way that the human cost of war is kept from impacting US society, which serves to make it more palatable. The result is the War Profiteers can continue to pilfer the US taxpayer.

I cannot believe that the argument persists big-upping segregated education.
The failure of the comprehensive system was due to many ex grammer school types wanting to keep the great unwashed in the dirt.
The notion that grammer schools were open to all is also untrue. Despite my folks passing 11+, they had to forego that ‘elite’ pathway due to family poverty and enter the workplace early. A comprehensive system would have ensured they got good qualifications prior to entering the workplace.

There was a huge outpouring against the banker bailout in America. The switchboards at the Congressional offices were brought DOWN by the number of calls nine to one against. The House voted no first, then the Senate took the bill and added it as an amendment to another bill. So the bailout was not constitutional when it passed because it did not clear the House.

Stacey, I have left comments for Max on Facebook but I do not know if he has seen them. This is an unrelated story but it could be something he can discuss on the show.
http://www.marketoracle.co.uk/Article14996.html (“Gold Finger – A New Take on Operation Grand Slam with a Tungsten Twist” by Rob Kirby). The atricle tells how China took physical delivery of gold bars from a US bank. The Chinese had some the bars drilled and found tungsten inside. Note that tungsten has approximately the same density as gold. More fraud by the banksters? Maybe. See if Max can take a look at this and possibly discuss this on the show.
@Mep .. found a link / Grammer versus Comprehensive Schools
Page 131 :
…
The grammar school, which had no class barriers and provided equal opportunity for all who were capable of profiting from it, was one of the most potent democratic influences in society … A neighbourhood comprehensive school which abandoned intellectual segregation would put social segregation in it’s place .

@Mep … Today’s universities have become just another part of the plantation landscape
How true .. and that’s without even considering whether the UCLA students were protesting the protesters .
The education system has had some serious ” dumbing down ” it seems … from primary school onwards.
Sad !
PS:
I went to 3 senior schools in total in the 60′s.
I passed my 11+ exam and would have normally gone to a grammar school, but there wasn’t one in the area where I lived at the time .
The order was :
a) a comprehensive school
b) a grammar school
c) a grammar school that turned comprehensive while I was still there
I discovered that the segregation of pupils worked best.
The academics who all wanted to learn got on well together.
The secondary school pupils were more or less more interested in handy-work professions – mechanic, plumber etc. and they all got on very well together.
Mixing the two together was a disaster, such that the almost class warfare developed — the academic class versus the practical class.
I discovered recently via an Internet article , that a member of the Labor Government of the time had had such a hatred of the “academic class” that he vowed to destroy every grammar school in England …and he won it seems !
Maybe I’ll go and look for that article .. it was pretty shocking !
The Fed’s balance sheet swelled to its largest point since December as its holdings in agency and mortgage-backed securities increased, data released.
Balance sheet liabilities had expanded to $2.19T as of Nov. 19, the highest point recorded since liabilities hit $2.25T on Dec. 31, 2008. The Fed’s holdings of mortgage-backed securities increased to $847B, from $776B a week earlier, while its agency debt ownership rose to $153B from $150B.
The Fed has said it will continue its support for markets with ongoing purchases of securities, buying $1.25T worth of mortgage-backed securities and $175B in bonds issued by Fannie Mae ( FNM), Freddie Mac (FRE) and the Federal Home Loan Bank System.
Mortgage backed securities are OTC derivatives. Wonder who will get banged here???
Trichet also spoke out over bankers bonuses.
“Profits earned should be used, as a priority, to build capital and reserves rather than to be paid out as dividends or undue compensation,” he urged.
“The financial sector must not forget that it is to serve the economy and not the other way round,” he concluded.
“Compensation and bonuses must remain contained.”

@ Phil – I wondered the same thing when I heard Max say that. At any rate, he’s right about universities needing to be changed. Today’s universities have become just another part of the plantation landscape. (See The Neoliberal University”: http://www.globalresearch.ca/index.php?context=va&aid=11223 )
@ Stacy & Max – Sound quality was tops . . . must’ve been that chocolate syrup and honey that did the trick.
Max, according to my sister-turned-belligerent monster (thanks, US military!), the kids with their faces in the dirt over in Bangladesh are happy to have their faces there, and people such as yourself have no right to speak of it because you are not directly affected in any way. I was naked during you guys’ show, too–listening to part of it in the bath; I’m still finding bruises on my legs, neck, behind my ears–in places where I don’t recall being hit. She’ll likely be among the crowds gathered early on Black Friday outside Wall-mart. Peeps better hope that they don’t grab the last of whatever piece of plastic is in this year from her. Giving cheap plastic shit to her kids is the only way she knows of to show love, and she needs to buy a whole lot of it to try to make up for being an abusive tool.

Another enjoyable and edifying hour spent in the company of Stacy and Max.
I have to agree with Max with his lack of sympathy for the students in California who have been hit with a large tuition increase. The time to protest and take over buildings was as Max says when the war in Iraq was launched. It was also when the Banker Bailout was proposed. The students need to make the connection between the current government crisis and the transfer of funds to the Banksters and the War Profiteers. This is not Capitalism – this is Welfare for the Rich.
As Stacy says, this is the new Feudalism. Or as I stated back in October 2008:
Another way of looking at this is that America will become a colony of the International Bankers. And we will be forced to pay tribute in the form of taxes and inflation and usage fees for the highways and airports that we used to own. The thing that makes this such a diabolical scheme is that the average American will never realize that he or she has become a slave and especially won’t realize who his or her master really is. We will blame the government, but the government will be powerless to make any changes or to defend us.

I do not know what has happened but it would seem I have fallen onto some sort of “Moderation list.” I have heard of this happening before to another regular/multi poster. Any thoughts/explanation. My post are not offensive IMHO but who knows. Thin skinners abound. I will continue to read as alot of the posters links are invaluable. Good luck in the future.
