The bankless society is growing.
[i]Here is the evidence. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. (FDIC) released a report last week concluding that 7.7 percent of U.S. households, containing at least 17 million adults, are unbanked (i.e. those who do not have bank accounts), and an “estimated 17.9 percent of U.S. households, roughly 21 million, are underbanked” (i.e., those who rely heavily on nonbank institutions, such as check cashing and money transmitting services). As an economy becomes richer and incomes rise, the normal expectation is that the proportion of the unbanked population falls and does not rise as is now happening in the United States. [/i]

Didn’t you ever hear the Ozzie media commentators talking about the great blow jobs Johny was getting Stateside? At Yale, they diidn’t call Dubya “Lips Bush” for nothing.
For Blair, there was always Geoff Gannon. Whenever Tony was in town, Geoff would excuse himself early from the gym, telling the other studs that Tony was in town so his services were required at the Whitehouse.

Obama AGAINST Bankers?? is this a joke?! Or is this the turnaround we’ve been wating for?
Axelrod: Obama to lecture banks on accountability
A top adviser to President Barack Obama says the White House is telling the banking industry it helped create last year’s near economic meltdown and it has to be “part of the solution.”
“I did not run for office to be helping out a bunch of fat cat bankers on Wall Street,” Obama told CBS’s “60 Minutes” in an interview that broadcast Sunday.
“These same banks who benefited from taxpayer assistance … are fighting tooth and nail with their lobbyists up on Capitol Hill, fighting against financial regulatory control,” Obama said in the “60 Minutes” interview.

@ Phil – Yeah, it’s no joke. Thousands of bad teeth have been pulled at the free clinics that have taken place here. Dental work is very expensive, and is out-of-reach for an ever-growing percentage of Americans because so many people have service sector jobs, part-time, or poverty-wage jobs that either don’t offer benefits, or offer plans that people can’t afford. When I had to get my wisdom teeth out, it was around $1,500 out of pocket–not including the pain killers and antibiotics. I had to live with pain for a couple of years b/c I was doing my undergraduate and couldn’t afford to pay for the surgery, even though I had a full-time job. I’m not at all surprised that people are going to Mexico and finding other ways of tending to their teeth.
@ dezza – It’s not a joke; it’s a PR stunt to pacify the masses.
Blair’s sycophancy is very fancy.

Care of Her Majesty The Queen, The Times Online presents: ‘Live debate: predicting house prices’ – when will the pommies learn..
‘In practice, this could be achieved through an international clearing union – an idea of John Maynard Keynes, one of the architects of the Bretton Woods system. The clearing union would mean that national governments would no longer need to maintain their own foreign exchange reserves. Instead, they would rely on a pool of reserves contributed by all the nations of the world and managed by the clearing union. This reserve pool would be denominated in a new international currency, such as the ‘bancor’ – Keynes’ idea for a unit of exchange based on international commodity prices. Persistently large trade surpluses and deficits would be penalised by an interest charge, providing incentives for both surplus and deficit countries to change policy to eliminate the imbalances. National exchange rates would be changed, by mutual consent, at the clearing union, based on trade balances. Keynes’ ideas remain an excellent basis to start a new discussion, but need updating in the context of freer mobility of capital and international financial flows.
This system could help to stabilise international exchange rates, reduce persisent and destabilising global imbalances and promote international economic cooperation, and should also help to stabilise commodity prices and prevent future financial crises. Reforms to the international monetary system should be rules-based but take into account the diverse needs of different countries. The institution that manages the system must be democratic and accountable.”

“Persistently large trade surpluses and deficits would be penalised by an interest charge, providing incentives for both surplus and deficit countries to change policy to eliminate the imbalances.”
Sounds like the sdr system: central banks are systemically at risk with dollar reserves and are switching to sdr. The IMF is the minion that captures that interest.
I’m thinking the ‘gold sale’ to India had to do with their trade imbalance (deficit) and the wish of the imperialists to regroup India’s forex to better position India in the new union (for their personal colonizing benefit)…
Sdr is a way to manouver those trade imbalances for the elite benefit: why now the sudden ‘need’ to allot the 250B?
Has anyone asked that question? Why the need for the global liquidity of the sdr allotment on September 2009?
The question is not academic but pragmatic.

“The financial crisis has taught us a painful lesson that global macroeconomic imbalances can wreak enormous damage on the world economy. Indeed, the centrepiece of the recent G20 Summit in Pittsburgh was agreement on a framework for balanced and sustainable growth to forestall a resurgence of imbalances as the economic recovery gets underway. At the recent IMF-World Bank annual meetings, G20 leaders gave the IMF a mandate to manage this framework by providing hard-nosed evaluations of their countries’ macroeconomic policies.”

“The G30, a group of prominent bankers, policymakers and economists, called on Monday for sweeping reforms to the International Monetary Fund (IMF), warning that the impetus for change would wane as pain from the financial crisis fades…. “The group proposed a new IMF governing council that could parallel membership in the newly empowered G20 emerging and rich nations and it recommended more use of flexible credit lines that emerging economies can draw on in times of need….” [Reuters/Factiva] Dow Jones adds that “…in a report on IMF reform, the G30 said no individual country should be able to veto decisions by the body, and supported the idea of the IMF acting as a global reserve, using its various lending facilities”

Scott from Oregon -
After watching the banal statements from US Senators and the hypocritical solioquy of the Congress, this posting of Mr. Nigel Farage’s statement at the European “Parliament” is most telling. It was also rather telling regarding who rose in opposition to direct election (socialists).
However, I would also point out that Mr. Farage is the party leader of the UKIP, (see: http://www.ukip.org/ ) It appears that this speech is targetted at the populist message of his party (of which he was the leader).
I appreciate Mr. Farage’s message. The same behavior pattern which he is railing on in the EU is clearly occurring in the US and in California in particular.
Another post here yesterday pointed the browswer to a website that discussed economic crimes. The author appeared to be an anonymous blogger who correlated the behavior of the markets to meetings of a group called Legatus
http://gawker.com/5050016/how-legatus-brought-down-wall-street
The next meeting of Legatus is in Dana Point, California in about 8 weeks.
If “Reinhardt” is correct, then the impact leading up to and after the meeting should be clear in California.
The meeting also seems to coincide with the State of Calfiornia’s budgetary problems (in 2009 and 2008 there were fiscal crises in early February). It also coincides with the peak of the influenza season (H1N1).
In other news, Bloomberg is reporting that fog has “enshrouded” Reagan Airport. Mr. Pandit from Citigroup was not able to attend the meeting at the White House. John Stump from Wells Fargo is at the White House. Jamie Dimon from JPMChase is present. But, Citigroup’s Dick Parson’s is “stuck in New York City” because Pandit was “busy with the TARP pay back”.
Outrageous behavior when these banksters are PAID with our tax dollars and then refuse to show up for the meeting with the people who OWN THEM.
“Mr. Volcker testified on behalf of the Group of 30, which includes financial experts from private and public sectors around the world.
Citing a recent G30 report, Mr. Volcker called for greater transparency and the registration of large hedge funds with a national regulator, which should have authority to establish standards for capital, liquidity and risk management.”

“Persistently large trade surpluses and deficits would be penalised by an interest charge, providing incentives for both surplus and deficit countries to change policy to eliminate the imbalances.”
This is clearly aimed at China.
Frenkel, chairman of the g30, hired by JPMorgan Chase:
http://business.timesonline.co.uk/tol/business/industry_sectors/banking_and_finance/article6949412.ece
“JPMorgan Chase appointed a veteran economist and banker to advise on the expansion of the bank’s international business, including operations in London.
Jacob Frenkel, a former Governor of the Bank of Israel and former research director of the International Monetary Fund (IMF), has joined the bank as chairman of JPMorgan Chase International.
Dr Frenkel stepped down as vice-chairman of American International Group (AIG) last month. Before joining AIG in 2004, he was chairman of Merrill Lynch International for four years.
The 66-year-old will represent the JPMorgan Chase at the IMF and the Group of 30, the economic think-tank that he chairs, as well as working on the bank’s relationships with central banks, big financial institutions and sovereign wealth funds.”
So, guess those guys are privy to the IMF sdr denominated financial instruments.

@ronron – link please? I believe any bull market naturally attracts con artists and scamsters, so I don’t doubt that there may be hucksters out there trying to sell people some tungsten gold; Do I believe tungsten gold could pass through London Bullion Market? No. I don’t believe that. I do believe, however, it can be stored there. There are storage units that anyone can rent, but it doesn’t mean that they have checked the gold for quality.
@Stacyherbert. i don’t do links as my computer skills are lacking. it’s all over utube. i don’t believe everything i here so i ask someone i trust.
@purr – tungsten & gold

Hopey McChange in classic bait and switch on the public now attempting shamelessly to cover his ass by meeting with some bankster criminals and ‘lecturing’ them. This is just like Goldman throwing 500 mill at a charity the other week.
Assist the criminal into the store, when the robbery is complete then feign outrage and once again hoodwink the idiot Sheeple that are your ‘base’.
His base was always the Banksters.
Would Blair have been so hot on attacking Iraq if he had to lead the charge?
What a pansy Brit.
