GOLD !! GOLD !! GOLD!!
@DanValley:
Goodonya, Dan! Hope it works for ya! That’s a good story of valor alright, and me buzzing about ain’t a makin honey nor hay.
sorry I dabbled in your listy….some things to tempt one
@Dedo:
Just call me Mrs. Carter. go on. I dare you.
@ snoots….ahh as you see and know all during your buzzing around then you know that my view on gold is one of an easy way to double ones cash to then turn around and grab-up some all ready selected farm land on the cheap and hunker down for the apocalypse.
@DanValley:
Frank’s a rambling kind of man.
@Dedo:
I’m like a bee buzzing around the site telling them to eat the honey, but like men they think gold equals storable wealth and have not read the old stories of gold/wars/famine/decay/death and prefer to write new stories based on valor, exploits, balls, and brawn. Sdrs? That’s not HAPPENING, Dedo! It is not spoken of, not thought about, and only considered if one is ‘within the fence’ so to say.
I listened daily to Patriot News Hour for a year, because they had a good commentary. Last night the broadcaster said, ‘lies,lies, all lies’ and ‘sovereign wealth fund’. But unfortunately not in the same sentence: cue words for pool.
And it’s not just Americans who are obsessed with currency. Good Lordy, I’ve noticed a bit of an obsession about currency here as well and about gain.
Bloody stupid scapegoating the only hide to cover one’s ass through the long winter. Send it out of the camp, and you might not get another one.

@Frances,…..So,..what do you think about the persistent ignorance of sdr’s on this site, just thought I’d ask! ; )
“dollar or china for granted?”
No, not really here, Dan. What people do is ignore the entire G20 political structure with the finance ministers sitting as governors on the IMF board voting for their bank and the BIS currency cartel: in sync.
China is not operating independently of the G20. The Chinese are delighted that Obama ignores their human rights violations and encourages the castration of Afghanistan through the UN security council.

@DanValley:
I can’t understand why all and sundry rely on rumours circulating the blogosphere or msm regarding China and the dollar when Zhou had written that essay which explicitly details China’s thrust for the sdr:
http://www.bis.org/review/r090402c.pdf
The central bank deals have been in compliance with Zhou’s vision: this is the impetus behind the ‘gold’ sales.
It is almost as though there is a ‘conspiracy’ to ignore the obvious.
And the power to obfuscate is derived from a multiplicity of ridiculous stories masquerading as news: like the Fisk rumour of a gold-inclusion or backing ot the gulf regional currency.
Men want to believe what men want to believe irregardless of events.
Even here, the ‘let’s glean the truth’ site, the obvious is chastised and relegated to a tea-room somewhere where it is called “mysdrs” or “gossip lady chat”.
Quite pathetic if you ask me.

CIA pulls SWIFT one to get peak at your bank records
European Union governments have given in to the pressure and appear set to make a last-minute agreement with the United States to allow its intelligence agencies to monitor bank accounts and transactions across the bloc.
Actually, the EU has been clandestinely allowing US intelligence agencies to have access to these financial records since 2001, allegedly to fight terrorism.
However, EU citizens were outraged when this invasion of privacy was revealed in 2006.
Now, however, interior ministers and security officials of the 27-member bloc are going to meet on November 30 to make a decision on legally allowing the United States to have access to bank data across the EU.
According to Spiegel Online, the EU interior ministers gradually succumbed to the “massive” pressure exerted by US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and US ambassadors in Europe, who pressed governments like door-to-door salespeople.

SEC official aided in Ponzi scheme, agency’s watchdog finds
Employee received full benefits and buyout despite rules violations
Washington Post Staff Writer
Tuesday, December 1, 2009
A Securities and Exchange Commission official received full retirement benefits and a $25,000 buyout package from the agency despite assisting a Ponzi scheme operator in Arizona who later was fined for defrauding investors, according to a new report by the agency’s watchdog.
The report by the SEC’s inspector general says there was no evidence to suggest that the employee in the SEC’s Office of Administrative Services knew she was abetting a fraud. But the report claims that the employee, who wasn’t named, violated agency rules by allegedly using government equipment and her government e-mail account to help an outsider carry out his private-investment business.

This has got to me favourite paragraph from it.
36. How clear is the undeveloped power of thought of the purely brute brains of the GOYIM, as expressed in the fact that they have been borrowing from us with payment of interest without ever thinking that all the same these very moneys plus an addition for payment of interest must be got by them from their own State pockets in order to settle up with us. What could have been simpler than to take the money they wanted from their own people?

The US faces an equally large scale Sovereign Debt Default Risk as the UK does — and these coupled crises will completely wind down both the US and UK empires (well fragments of empire).
I am totally shocked that large numbers of US states are not heading into default as a matter of course.

What does GS fear? the peasants are to fat and dumb to know GS should be a target. They’ll just shoot up a workplace, cops or a politician.
Do you know what the government does? do ya!
it goes to its computer and creates a guilt, bond, treasury, whatever it types in to its computer whatever sum it requires with the “promise” <keyword of the Tax payer to pay it back without going into too much detail it then essential has this bought off it via the fractional reserve system, but new ceedit can only be created when theres a promise behind it, otherwise its called quantiaive easing.
Now this is what should happen!!
The government goes to its computer it rights up some debt with the promise of the Tax payer to pay it back "IT" creates the credit "IT" needs why? because the people are the only source or real wealth and the government is the people so it always has this ability. This new credit is interest free its impossible for sovereign governments to be in debt because there should be nothing for them to be in debt too because they are the end of the line.
If you look at the whole world the vast majority of it is in debt right? why? it must be in debt to another planet I assume? Mars maybe? If not then I can only assume that someone or a group of people have devised a scheme where by the create an infinite amount of somthing that they can proceed to loan out as long as there is a demand and promise to pay back and thus put all the individuals, business and governments of the world in debt to it when the whole time they could of created their own credit debt free.
And thats it in a nutshell the government can create the money is need to pay its expenses debt free because it has tax payers to pay it back interest free, namely it can act as its own bank.
Instead the owners of the fractional reserve system are like the drug dealer and the government is like a crackwhore selling everything is has for its next fix of credit.
great choice for the show this week.

@Hawkeye .. Steve Keen’s article
The report was excellent … and although I’d like to cut/paste all of it here, I think the last paragraph is right on the nail :
…
There is nothing more dangerous than a bad theory
The simple reason is: because they are neoclassical economists. You don’t get to be a Central Banker without a degree in economics, and the school of thought that dominates economics today is known as neoclassical economics. Though a lot of what it says appears to be superficially intelligent, almost all of it is intellectual drivel, as I outlined in my book Debunking Economics (which summarised a century of profound critiques of this theory which its practitioners have studiously ignored).
Since critiques by economists and mathematicians of this theory have literally filled books, I won’t try to go into all of them here. Just three key neoclassical myths suffice to explain why they do not understand the dynamics of our credit driven society. They believe that:
(1) The nominal money supply doesn’t affect real economic output;
(2) The private sector is rational while the government sector is not; and
(3) That they can model the economy as if it is in equilibrium.
The first myth means that they ignore money and debt in their mathematical models: most neoclassical models are in “real” terms and completely omit both money and debt. So since debt doesn’t even turn up in their models, they are unaware of its influence (even though their statistical units do a very good job of recording the actual level of debt).
The second myth means that they are quite willing to obsess about government debt, but they implicitly believe that private debt has been incurred for sensible reasons so that it can’t cause any problems.
The third myth means that they ignore evidence that indicates that the economy is very far removed from equilibrium, and they misunderstand the effect of crucial variables in the disequilibrium environment in which we actually live.
I can give two instances of how this has affected attempts to get Central Bankers to realise that the debt to GDP ratio matters: Ben Bernanke’s discussion of Irving Fisher’s “Debt Deflation Theory of Great Depressions”, and a discussion I had with a Assistant Governor of Australia’s Reserve Bank on the topic.

@Hawkeye – Steve Keen is guest on next week’s episode of the Keiser Report; (Matt Taibbi is on this week’s episode)
@Hawkeye some cuts and pasts that captured my eye, very good article by Steve Keen.
The second decade of the 21st century promises to be a dramatic one, politically and economically.requiring the breaking of the hegemony of neoclassical economics over economic thinking, but I doubt that the academic profession, or economists in Central Banks and Treasuries, are up to the task of changing their spots
As Michael Hudson argues, a simple dynamic is now being played out: debts that cannot be repaid, won’t be repaid. The only thing we have to do is work out how that should happen
There are actually two ways to reduce your debt burden–by paying it down yourself, or by letting inflation do it for you.
