I have a problem with the psychology test and its conclusions. Another way of looking at the two motivators is that in the one case something is tangible and real (ie the promised bonus provided they don’t fail which can be seen as mainly showing confidence in the workers in the way of innocent until proven guilty), while the other model dangles a potential carrot that can only be achieved if a number of factors work together (ie other workers, no power failure or other glitches, what an individual worker feels about their job etc).
So it’s not necessarily that the fear of loss is more powerful but “giving” someone a “real” bonus from the start and providing a collective yet individual motivation to work together, the outcome improves. This is opposed to what they are always used to – here’s some carrot that may come if you do so and so.
“We already have the means to travel among the stars, but these technologies are locked up in black projects and it would take an act of God to ever get them out to benefit humanity” -Ben Rich
“Anything you can imagine we already know how to do.” -Ben Rich
“We now have the technology to take ET home” -Ben Rich
Benjamin Robert Rich (June 18, 1925 – January 5, 1995) was the second director of Lockheed’s Skunk Works from 1975 to 1991, succeeding its founder, Kelly Johnson. Regarded as the “father of stealth,” Ben Rich was responsible for leading the development of the F-117, the first production stealth aircraft. He also worked on the F-104, U-2, SR-71, A-12, and F-22 among others, many of which are still classified.
Noted UFO researcher and lecturer Robert Hastings contends that there exists a credible link between the appearance of nuclear weapons in the mid-1940s, and the overall increase in UFO sightings since that time. Moreover, he believes that one of the reasons the U.S. government has attempted to conceal its real but secret assessment of UFOs relates to its unwillingness to admit that unknown observers, piloting enormously superior aerial craft, have been systematically monitoring – and occasionally tampering with – our nuclear weapons.
As incredible as this may seem to UFO skeptics, it is nevertheless based on persuasive, documented data. Hundreds of declassified U.S. government documents, many of them reluctantly released to researchers via the Freedom of Information Act, clearly establish a UFO-Nukes Connection. Moreover, hundreds of ex-military men have now come forward and confirmed to researchers their knowledge of one UFO-related incident or another at U.S. nuclear weapons sites.
Since 1973, Hastings has interviewed more than 120 former and retired U.S. Air Force personnel regarding their involvement in such cases. These individuals – ranging from retired colonels to former airmen – report extraordinary encounters with UFOs which have obvious national security and even planetary implications.

Bootsy – If 6 was 9. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C7RqVHROCdY
The scientist behind the bogus claim in a Nobel Prize-winning UN report that Himalayan glaciers will have melted by 2035 last night admitted it was included purely to put political pressure on world leaders.
Dr Murari Lal also said he was well aware the statement, in the 2007 report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), did not rest on peer-reviewed scientific research.
In an interview with The Mail on Sunday, Dr Lal, the co-ordinating lead author of the report’s chapter on Asia, said: ‘It related to several countries in this region and their water sources. We thought that if we can highlight it, it will impact policy-makers and politicians and encourage them to take some concrete action.
Rectification: “What I find most pitiful is that the normal working class hard working Japanese people can’t profit from the fruits the country produces in the production of many high tech products EXPORTED abroad …”
What I find most pitiful is that the normal working class hard working Japanese people can’t profit from the fruits the country produces in the production of many high tech products abroad because some politicians decided 15 years ago to follow a uncertain economical path.
This economical path mend that the economical politics of the country have become a difficult balancing act in which an everlasting deflation battle became unavoidable and the ordinary Japanese worker pays the price in a lower than strictly necessary living standard. This risky economical path could be sustained for many years because the rest of the world wasn’t in a recession at the same moment which has changed now obviously.
Unfortunately Bernakesan used the Japanese model so now we all are going to be practicing this balancing act for years to come. But since Japan was already in this situation they are even worse off now.
The best Japan can hope for now is that the emerging markets, mainly in China and India, are able to take over the consumer role of the West. But China also has it’s currency pegged lower to the dollar which doesn’t make the China consumer richer.
Well we’ll see what’s gonna happen the coming years but knowing that the way it went in Japan will be the future of the West isn’t a pretty one. Sorry for the grimy future prospects but it is based in reality.
This japanTimes article has more news on Japanese consumers continuing to tighten their belts as wages go down and deflation continues. As Supermarket sales hit 21-year low.
It did seem that the DPJ would allow the yen to float freely against the dollar when they first came to power, in order to spark some internal demand in the Japanese economy and give the hard pressed consumer a break, as the yen increased in value. Sadly more recently they seem to have decided to take the often used LDP technique of talking about government intervention when the yen strengthens in order the support the powerful exporters.
Where will it all end?
When the Japanese people finally run out of savings who will be left to buy the Japanese government bonds (90% of which are now purchased by Japanese people)? Who will support the massive government deficits? Foreign investors? I dont think so, they have their own problems. Eventually the government may get more than it bargained for- A very very weak yen.
@Mep
Obama is a nice piece of manure indeed. The Russians should give nuke to Chavez just to put one in the ass of Obama. I am really starting to hate that piece of scum war monger. Peace my ass. He’s an agressive sun of bitch. What this shit about nuclear missiles. Is he trying to prove that he’s a macho ? Chavez doesn’t need a war to fall. He’s soo dumb that he wil fall by himself. A lot like Obanana to think of it. This country is just about arm’s business. The rest could fall apart like Detroit and these fuckers don’t care. Hope the place implode. I am really tired reading those type of news. That piece of manure wants to create an incident to force on Europeans the purchase of your Rand Corporation shit bag missile shield, a perfect and utter waste of money. What a bastard. You stinking Democrats. Worst than Bush.
That guy disturbed me…
(either he was high on Ecstasy or Coke, or he’s inflicted with some social dysfunction…)
However, he made an interesting point about Golgmung Sucks, in that, they may just wind up crushing their SP and go private, basically flipping everyone the bird…
while running away with their bonuses…
They’ve milked the gov’t cow as much as they can, and the public isn’t going to let them near the teats anymore…
The article he wrote about the S&P chart correlation between 2003 and 2009 is pretty eye-opening as well…
which means we have about 3 more cycles over the rest of the year before the markets level off…
MJ will not help you if you have mercury poisoning. Do not use MJ as a crutch or a pain management tool as it is neither. Use of other compounds would be far more directed and far more responsible.
Mercury poisoning is unlikely to be curable because once the heavy metals get into your brain and past the blood-brain barrier; it is not very likely that you can get the mercury out.
If you are indeed dealing with mercury poisoning, you should have levels drawn by a doctor and the assessment of your neurologic findings should be done quickly.
EPA mercury exposure levels were routinely being exceeded by doctors in California and in many countries due to the presence of a mercury containing preservative called thimerosal which was added to many medications and vaccines.
marc authier, I think folks will wake up someday. But it may be too late. As alot of folks are yelling now. People wake up. Time to elect if possible people that won’t send us all down the river to either facisim or corporate borgs.
People have been asleep for decades now. At least in the west. Given a better life. Food, shelter, protection. So they just went to sleep. Now their freedoms are being taken aware of bit by bit so they won’t get too riled and do something about it. The monsters setting this all up are very smart. They know what they are doing. Killing us slowly. Or gaining control of us slowly so we just go along with it.
@jon
Yeah. Wait, sit back and drinl your beer. Know the prevalent feeling. People are like on something. Programmed paralysis. Sometimes I thinks it’s either too much dope, too much TV, a kind of chemical brain numbness ? A kind of hypnotic trance like a dear paralysed by the head ligths of a car in the night.
I just can understand why. It’s like that it doesn’t concern them.
Have you ever ran into a moose with a car ? Stupid moose completely paralysed. It’s quite terrifying when the moose hits the car and real messy. Collectively people are now like my frozen moose in the windsheild, I don’t know what it will take to dehypnotize them ?
marc authier, My finger to the wind on knowing how folks feel is my own family. They unbelieveably seem aware now that something wrong is being pushed down their throats. But since they’ve never done anything ever to stand up for anything they’ll just sit back and see what happens.
Lord help us. I’m guessing most folks are like this. They know something is wrong. But they won’t do anything about it. Not until it affects them dramatically.
The swindle is 22% real unemployment in the USA and 37 million people on food stamps. That’s the main swindle. No real economic activity. It seems to me sufficient proof. The swindle is that taxes are exploding. Just can’t understand why people don’t get madder or even get it. It’s not working. The same horrors and errors than in Japan. 20 years of economic activity stolen by these peddlers. You already have the results.
marc authier. Its pretty evident the stock market got propped up by the fed handing the big banksters almost 0% interest on trillions of dollars. Gee , surprise their stocks went up and the banksters have been selling into their stock rises. Surprise.
I guess this procedure could go on forever. Almost free money to the banksters. But one has to think theres got to be a catch to this easy swindle someplace.
Nothing like Carl Denniger to resume in a substantific nutshell the All the truth about “Rackets” Invest in the rackets at your risks and perils.
=================================================
In other words, the stock market rally has been about not improving economic prospects but rather utter BS, lies and . Let’s look at some basic statistics:
•15 stocks in the S&P 500 have a P/E over 100. 23 have a P/E over 60. 37 have a P/E over 40. 65 have a P/E over 30 and 152 have a P/E over 20. 220 – nearly half – have a P/E over 13, the historical long-term average. The latter statistic is trotted out from time to time to claim that the market as a whole isn’t overvalued, but 125 stocks in the S&P 500 have a negative P/E – that is one quarter of the S&P 500 has negative earnings.

@California Doctor
Thanks for the link. I will put it on me blog. i seem to have most of the symptoms already. I hope the cure is some good old california grass. What do you say doc?
thats what I’m guessing. deflation big time. The banksters have done nothing but steal huge amounts of money. I don’t think they want to see it all go for naught.
Next step 2000 years copyright on Mickey Mouse. Intellectual property should be respected, but only for a limited time. This in not what is going on. Next step will indeed be eternal copyrights. Has somebody bought the copyrights on God ? I am sure that s,o,b. Lloyd Blankfien is working on the concept.
forgot:
In October 2007 the United States, the European Community, Switzerland and Japan simultaneously announced that they would negotiate a new intellectual property enforcement treaty, the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement, or ACTA. Australia, the Republic of Korea, New Zealand, Mexico, Jordan, Morocco, Singapore, the United Arab Emirates and Canada have joined the negotiations
Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement (ACTA) in fact has little to do with counterfeiting, or even with trade for that matter. It is instead a copyright treaty that would fundamentally ratchet up legal protections for rights-holders. If a deal is reached, it could have serious implications for heavy users of copyrighted material, including students, teachers and researchers.
ACTA has been inexplicably shrouded in secrecy since talks were launched two years ago. The lack of transparency is perplexing because, after all, we’re talking about a copyright treaty, not state secrets. Or so it would seem. In fact, the U.S. government refused a request from two public interest groups – the Electronic Frontier Foundation and Knowledge Ecology International — to release information on the treaty for reasons of “national security”.

I already posted this a while back… I was reminded of it recently when Max was talking about the government building the roads and whatnot in the USA… greta little jazzy tune IMO!!!

think of the NWO order as the Ancient Regime gone Technocratic….what Alexander the Great would have done with a little electricity & a little Atomic energy…oh my….the sky’s the limit.
the left-right paradigm as AJ calls it…is really the Hegelian Left-Right….both STATISTS(welfare-warfare inspired by Napolean & perfected by Bismark// ….obviously intended for WAR/ODIN…the STATE does not wither away…just we that wither away…any who the NWO is quite ANCIENT.
the most influential German political economists were Lasalle & Feuerbach…both Hegelian imitations…..which is why Marx said he wanted to turn Hegel on his head…..nobody, at the time thought much of Marx…..even Marx abandoned his “economics” for traight politics….like so many other pied-pipers…he was intended to lead the proletarian to their death….and he succeeded.
there are only two organic classes gender & generation…..had Marx discussed the political non-productive class vs the non-political productive class as STRUGGLE…he would have been somebody…but, alas, that is not what he did….when you think of Marx; think of Samuelson…both empty suits…..we adore vacuous vessels.
Marx was nothing more than a Smith-Ricardo review….absolutely nothin’ that hadn’t already been said a million times already & much more clearly & concisely.
The real GENIUS ofEuropean Economics were the Scholastics at Salamanca. in the 1400-1600′s. Remember, it was Spanish Gold that generated what you call the Modern State-Political Economy…..the most critical modern event development was the bankruptcy of Philip II.,…set the world on fire…and it has stayed on fire ever since.
@Mep
Yeah. A genius with words and on paper. But never mind for concrete solutions. It ended up in a goulag. Like I said good intellectual dope. Haschich is better.
Gordo…I have never been to China…..nor do I work in the “manufacturing field”. Nevertheless, I know many that have & do. From their reports & descriptions; I can only conclude that most “manufacturing” is merely JV US, European, & Japan ASSEMBLY. Obviously there is some manufacturing….but not anywhere near the size & significance advertised & mostly low-end(apparels, toys).
I cannot imagine anyone investing very valuable “abilities” in China…only those things they can afford to lose….or, are already out-dated….throw-aways.
The assembly is usually done in an industrial park where five plants each add a different component; often with the most valuable part held off in the mother country.
Overall, all the Chinese production I’ve used is poor & cheap…as intended. Finally, in MANUFACTURING labour is the smallest cost…only about 3%. Thus the story of Chinese price advantage is BULLSHIT…Machines(robotics//try & find a human being at a car plant) make things NOT PEOPLE…that is the biggest part of the overall employment problem. Even China has lost many job in Manufacturing…that is why everyone went into the FINANCIAL SERVICES//Servicing field in the last 25 yrs….that is why they created these bubbles…to disguise the loss of human production//income.
Yes, I guess it depends on your definition of assembly.
He seemed to be drawing some fine distinction between assembly and manufacturing (importing parts for). Thought
there was more too it than I already knew.
@ doomandbloom – You completely misread, friend. The US is appealing the dismissal of the charges against Blackwater.
“While we fully respect the independence and integrity of the U.S. judicial system, we were disappointed by the judge’s decision to dismiss the indictment, which was based on the way in which some evidence had been acquired,” Biden said.
@crippledick
just noticed your stupid comment… here ya go you fuckfuck… I had decided to post this hours ago for Y’ALL… but it aint on YT… ENJOY you sad little tongue merchant!!!
Ok my english is not very good.
The question is: Whould only the Bond-holders lose there receivables or all people whith money in accounts.
This would be an massive deflationary aspect, cause the remain Dollaramount would increase in value, so the stockmarket and gold would crash, like prechter has in his wildest dreams.
i think the bildrbergr are more likly to let inflation to happen then deflation, but who knows, maybe they are willing to reduce massivly the worlds population?
@jim
And with computers it’s really easy. Much more easier and less messy than deleting people like in Irak and Afghanistan. When will the American people delete zeeee FED ? Remember how all of this was not supposed to happen with Mister Keynes ?
Lots of reference to residential property mortgages in this show provide excuse to post link to a blog I recently stumbled across which makes for v. entertaining reading!
By the time this is over…EVERYONE will have Defaulted to the FED…..houses, cars, credit cards, student loans, companies; you name it. Then, one day the Fed will announce a Grand Jubilee….like so many times throughout Histoouy….and hit the DELETE BUTTON…and it will all disappear….the next day; they will start the scam all over again…and so it goes.
Ok Max and Stacy, what will happen when Obama would declare Bancrupcy of the USA? Who will paid the debt, would only the Treasury-holders lose money or everybody who has Cash in the bankaccount?
The STATE is RELIGION. THE STATE IS GOD. THE STATE IS THE OPIATE OF THE MASSES…..BUT WHO IS THE STATE????
Just read another Yuan rally story. Prediction: if the Yuan is allowed to float(have big doubts)….then possibly the initial reaction will be UP…..that bid will be generated by the boyzs for EXIT Purposes ONLY. Most of the Hot Money going into China the last 15 yrs was a Real Estate Spec….not Manufacturing….Manufacturing(assembling) was a very convenient cover for creating a dominant position with the Warlords for dominating the upcoming Domestic Market…..any future bid in the Yuan will signal the END of the Property Bubble in China.
The Credit Bubble of the last 30yrs was primarily a Property Bubble(much bigger market than Equities)…..Japan, US, Europe, China et al. The Equity Rallies were simply derivatives(tag-alongs) to the PROPERTY BUBBLE….of course, the Worldwide Debt Bubble both dwarfs & symbolizes all of it. Finally, these bubbles are strongly assigned to dealing with the BOOMER PROBLEM…all of that is winding down.
In this 3 minute excerpt from Michael Levy’s 30 Minute Presentation, Levy details the overall trend of the US Dollar losing Value and Why Gold Silver and other Commodities are Ready For Blastoff!
Communism is the opium of intellecluals. Marx is real bad dope. LSD is better than Marx. Manure is better than Marx. Tried to read “Das Kapital”. Horribly boring stuff. I leave you your worker’s paradise and your opium. You must mean Groucho Marx snootie chérie ? Hope for you. Class war is a nice concept and true. But the solutions are an utter failure. Personnalle I prefer George Orwell. We know what marxism gave. Animal Farm.
Here’s a piece on the economic terrorism imposed on Hait that has helped to drag them down to this state of food dependency so common as well as so ironic in a tropical fertile country:
Gordo…there are no investors. Investing requires much time & much hard work. All are just gamblers-betting….. buying their puts & calls on Reality….it is truly a gross inversion….very much indicating…denouement.
An investor makes a shovel so he can dig good holes for the rest of his life…..a better is someone who stands over him trying to figure out when he will have a heart-attack or quit>

@frances snoot: “Dutch Admiralty law”…well yes that is the basis for usurping most common law as we have known it…as you are most likely aware Admiralty Law has to do with pirating…so as long as the Navy was in place to protect the Crown ( either Dutch of British )…then we are all victims to a cunning slight of hand…thus in America the Hobbs ruling and inter state commerce has become the catch all for any and all “crimes” agains the stater and federalized…thus the War on Drugs ( or most respectfully: the War Against America’s Citizens ) has increased the penal system from 200,000 to 2.2 million and making it the most incarcerated nation in the world ( 25% with 5% of the world’s population ) and reducing the school system to the lower eschellons (sp??) on the world scale…thus the greatest nation on earth is being systematically reduced to a banana republic before our eyes while the PTB keep repeating the mantra that the worst is over and the light is at the end of the tunnel…when in reality the heist is still going strong and the coup d’etat is a continuing criminal enterprise…adding injury to this madness is it is now “OUR” responsibility to bail out the criminals/fraudsters…by both increased fees, fines and taxes and rising prices leading us to a hyperinflationary depression..an animal we a s a people have never seen..so Yes the Admiralty Acts of old give foundation to the belief among the elite that they have due right to the wealth of nations and the avoidance of taxes for their cunning operations..thus we have GS’s Blankfein who ironically truly believes he is doing “g-d’s work”…and is rightly placed to accumulate the massive wealth in fewer and fewer hands…of course he is nor representative of the masses who he wishes to keep his ponzi scheme alive and well. in the end the jacobin’s will prevail…got your rakes and pitchforks yet????
@snoot
I am a believer but I have a real problem with the organized form of religion. Nothing is perfect. I suppose you have the horrible imperfections of life. The Vatican is still preferable to Marx and Stalin or Goldman Sachs.
I think not. It’s more close might we say to another type of chuch.
Mammon. You know the one Mosse got real mad about ? And Jesus too in the temple. Did you know Jerusalemen temple in the of Jesus had two functions ? At the top of the temple it was the business of God and underneath a bank ! No kidding. I am seious.
The rabbis were also bankers like the Templars. The Templars probably adopted their banking model based on the Middle Eastern rabbis. Money and God don’t mix. Very dangerous.
Banking and religion have a lot in common, Both are great con games.
That’s idiotic. The baby boomers are the ones who paid dearly into the system and are now to receive zilcho in reward. And a society that has no respect and only contempt for an entire generation is a sad one at best. The X’ers need to care for their parents with love.
Frances….your’e getting warmer & warmer…keep a goin’ Girl!!
Overall, the Norman broke out of the Mediterranean in the 1500′s with the Venetian-Genoese——Latifundia Model(Byzantine based) in hand. Please remember the Sephardics kept both the Arabs & Ottomans goin’(with Aristotle’s help). The Sephardics moved into the Hapsburg Netherlands around the time of Ferdinand & Isabella….and that’s where the Anglo-Dutch movement started. Maybe of the early credits belong to the Portuguese & Henry the Navigator.
But your baby boomers will need health care, and health care is BUSTED. The Gen X have ONE advantage. They can cut the plug on the respirator at the hospital. Watch out you dirty little selfish baby boomers. Ain’t a baby boomer. Don’t intend retiring. Intend fighting till the end. Mind you. To create fighting between generations, like between ethnic groups, or between men and women, is part of their plan. Divide and conquer.
I think Mish and Faber are smart enough.
They are not concerned (as much) with the issues we talk about here.They are investors first where as the people here? Not so much.
@ Ronron. LOL. I like Ponies. Plus, they maybe one of the only affordable modes of transportation if things get as bad as I think they will. Also in case of a shortage of good quality meat, the ponies, maybe suitable for the occasional barbecue.
Here’s a YouTube quote from the Sven Hassel adaptation of Wheels Of Terror called ‘The Misfit Brigade.’ The strange effect of having American actors with accents as if they came from L.A. posing as Tank crews of the Third Reich comes as a curious anti-war statement. I went down to the movie rental outlet to see if they have this one in DVD, but unfortunately only came out on VHS:
What is even more disgusting Jim is that these same Baby Boomers, having consumed more than any generation in world history, are now stealing productivity from the Gen X and Baby Busters behind them.
So, instead of the Busters and Gen X being able to go about life normally, they must support the welfare of the Boomers while the same people are killing their futures.
If you ask me, the Boomers are lucky to still have social security and medicare. The Gen Xers had every right to kill those programs immediately.
Hey. A want a “final solution” against Godamn Sachs. We know all well how to diagnose what is going on and how disgusting these plantation owners from Wall Street are. I bought gold and silver, closed a good part of my bank accounts. I live like a REAl greenie monk. But I want a SOLUTION to let them have it on the chin. OK. Let’s rephrase it. What is the best solution to bankrupt the USA and Goldman Sachs and the UK banksters ?
Remembering that deposits(money) are loans not savings(Steve Keen)….in order for Money to grow…..something has to be collateralized to generate the loan(money). ….it is near impossible,under current circumstances, to imagine who or what will be collateralized going forward….especially if asset prices stay even of go lower in the future. In the meanwhile, baby boomers are massive natural sellers of real estate, stocks & bonds going forward…further reducing loans//dollars(and roughly half of it will disappear via estate taxes—VAPORIZED, once again.. Thus, where will the loans(dollars) come from going forward????
Max if the Anglo Saxon triad goes into the clinker, than the world for the most part will follow, with the biggest and loudest crash coming in South East Asia ie (China). We have some nasty times coming our way.
Gordo…Mish, Faber & others may agree…but they have no clue as to why(other than being “contrary)….if they do…I haven’t heard it yet.
The what never matters; the WHY always does.
We are trading “public” policy…not markets, economy or finances. Revolt against the masses. The Political Class against the Productive Class…same story for thousands of yrs. These SOB’s are not smart enough or courageous enough to go any other way…why should they??
@Max
Soo the only conclusion is ? To solve the problem you need one big meteorite from space crashing on 85 broad street or the whole of Wall Street ? Ok two. One on the City and one on Wall Street. It’s the only solution. A real big big big meteorite. Can you really call it a market ? Not really. OK. Now what would be the solution for the 6 billion humans against these bloodsuckers. A part from buying gold and guns, and livinf in France, have you a solution to get rid Goldman Satan ?

As De-leveraging advances; Debt==Money… Debt will DISAPPEAR….that Money is Dollars…and will remain so until somebody wants to A) spend a Trillion “dollars) a yr. challenging the US Military and B) run huge account deficits for the benefit of their despised neighbors…..ain’t goin’ to HAPPEN.
addenda: the real reason for the gold rally was to Enforce the dollar offer to cover massive dollar shorts(liabilities)…..the real reason for the dollar offer was to assist the Chinese preserve the little bit left of their export business(re:assemblage, not manufacturing)….while transitioning to a domestic economy….much has been “covered” the last 9 mths….time to go the other way…..the Public, like good Generals, will fight the last was the whole way.
I think this was the trigger for the deflationary crash.
Why they dont make the cds null and void, close all banks, do there homework, open again without this derivatesmonster, Fed has to garant the deposits. And then completly monetize this Fiat$$$ with Gold, this would bring 50000$ per ounce.
Max…under Volcker: from 1978 to 1985; the dollar rallied from 80 to 165…a double.
Recommendation: stop believing the Headlines…..most markets go the OPPOSITE of the “preparing” spin. The headlines are necessary to generate the gigantic bid or offer Required to get the position both covered & reversed…think of the Japanese Housewives; for example.
The dollar is going to Scream….re-enforcing Dollar Hegemony. Just look at all the Foreign dollar-denominated bond issuance the last 9 mths. Their shorts(liabilities) are in dollars…..being covered. Their longs(assets) are in non-dollars(emerging markets) are be liquidated.
The Gold market is the classic example. The Gold offer from scrap is off the charts. The gold selling from producers is off the charts. The Collapse of Jewelry demand(roughly 80% of the market) is over 50%. Central Banks are trying to offset set this massive fundamental offer// imbalance via purchases(taxpayers problem once again).
Looking back: Volcker sold massive amounts of Bonds at the lows. Clinton bought them back at the Highs. Companies bought massive amounts of Stock(stock option offsets; which is where all the corporate debt came from) at the highs….and now is selling stock at the lows(banks & others). Gold is the same phenomena.
Besides: what “trader” would want to be short a market that has broken 98%….[dollar purchasing power]…..and no, the Reichsmark was not the reserve currency…big difference.
Dollars continue to be destroyed, retired….not renewed; at warp speed. There is a massive dollar should which will only continue…while their is a massive dollar bid…due to prior dollar claims, obligations(DEBT) moving forward.As you know assets are variable; liabilities are fixed. In other words; dollar production is falling…while relative dollar demand// is skyrocketing.

It goes really well with the Nazis working at NASA promoting the extermination of a good part of humanity in the name of ecology naturally.
Adolf Hitler was a fanatic vegetarian and an ecologist. He wanted to exterminate not just the Jews, the homos, the Communists, the Gipsies, but also all the “interior” races. (Poles, Russians, Ukrainians, Blacks) Corporate USA nazis are about the same when I think about Al Gore.
These people hate humanity. They hate USA. They hate democracy and they hate the middle class. But they love China and their way of governing and exploiting the masses.
towards the 14th Amendment: Only Persons have moral awareness//recognition. Corporations have no moral awareness//recognition….thus, they CANNOT be PERSONS.
Corporations have no personality; they are an amorphous, mechanical function.
The solution…..turn the table. Regulate the Regulators. Make Persons….INCORPORATIONS.
I would start with all the NAZI-NASA greenies. Hey you fascist Al Gore USA greenies start by killing yourself. These green nazi bastards never consider by starting by themselves. Write the book and go kill yourself. Naturally thi neo-nazi pig from the Nasa probably takes the plane 500 times a year, flies an helicopter, eats 500 big macs, and live in 50 room manshon like their Al Gore satanic green pig. Yeah it really what I think about certain greenies, Some greens are soo naive about their leaders. Like I said. Adolf Hitler i back and he is an Amercan. Sorry. It’s true.

NO ONE is more RESPONSIBLE for the fiction & farce of the last 40 yrs than Paul Volcker. He totally assisted the the horror that was the Economy(markets) during the 1970′s leading to his formal arrival in 1978.
The De-Industrilization of the US & the horrific BUBBLE that was Japan in the 1980′s was Volcker’s doing.
There is nothing to be saved anyways. Destroy the middle class.Fundementally all this stuff is a lot like Margaret’s Poll Tax. Ruin the middle class by hook or by crook.

Bust and ruin the people that still have an intellectual and cultural capacity to know what’s going on and then use the police and MI5 nazis to drone, to taser, to scan, to inject, to CO2 tax them to death.

I promised Stacy that I would not argue/debate anymore. From now on, I’ll just post info as I come across it.
Re: The Bet. The ball is in your court. But if you wish to pursue it, lets pick another venue and not take up space here.
I have a problem with the psychology test and its conclusions. Another way of looking at the two motivators is that in the one case something is tangible and real (ie the promised bonus provided they don’t fail which can be seen as mainly showing confidence in the workers in the way of innocent until proven guilty), while the other model dangles a potential carrot that can only be achieved if a number of factors work together (ie other workers, no power failure or other glitches, what an individual worker feels about their job etc).
So it’s not necessarily that the fear of loss is more powerful but “giving” someone a “real” bonus from the start and providing a collective yet individual motivation to work together, the outcome improves. This is opposed to what they are always used to – here’s some carrot that may come if you do so and so.
i expect all these UFO sightings are just black ops from HMS rothchild and USS Rockerfella, where you too can be a citizen.

UFO Hastings
http://ufohastings.com/index.html
Noted UFO researcher and lecturer Robert Hastings contends that there exists a credible link between the appearance of nuclear weapons in the mid-1940s, and the overall increase in UFO sightings since that time. Moreover, he believes that one of the reasons the U.S. government has attempted to conceal its real but secret assessment of UFOs relates to its unwillingness to admit that unknown observers, piloting enormously superior aerial craft, have been systematically monitoring – and occasionally tampering with – our nuclear weapons.
As incredible as this may seem to UFO skeptics, it is nevertheless based on persuasive, documented data. Hundreds of declassified U.S. government documents, many of them reluctantly released to researchers via the Freedom of Information Act, clearly establish a UFO-Nukes Connection. Moreover, hundreds of ex-military men have now come forward and confirmed to researchers their knowledge of one UFO-related incident or another at U.S. nuclear weapons sites.
Since 1973, Hastings has interviewed more than 120 former and retired U.S. Air Force personnel regarding their involvement in such cases. These individuals – ranging from retired colonels to former airmen – report extraordinary encounters with UFOs which have obvious national security and even planetary implications.

Rectification: “What I find most pitiful is that the normal working class hard working Japanese people can’t profit from the fruits the country produces in the production of many high tech products EXPORTED abroad …”
@stokyo jake
What I find most pitiful is that the normal working class hard working Japanese people can’t profit from the fruits the country produces in the production of many high tech products abroad because some politicians decided 15 years ago to follow a uncertain economical path.
This economical path mend that the economical politics of the country have become a difficult balancing act in which an everlasting deflation battle became unavoidable and the ordinary Japanese worker pays the price in a lower than strictly necessary living standard. This risky economical path could be sustained for many years because the rest of the world wasn’t in a recession at the same moment which has changed now obviously.
Unfortunately Bernakesan used the Japanese model so now we all are going to be practicing this balancing act for years to come. But since Japan was already in this situation they are even worse off now.
The best Japan can hope for now is that the emerging markets, mainly in China and India, are able to take over the consumer role of the West. But China also has it’s currency pegged lower to the dollar which doesn’t make the China consumer richer.
Well we’ll see what’s gonna happen the coming years but knowing that the way it went in Japan will be the future of the West isn’t a pretty one. Sorry for the grimy future prospects but it is based in reality.

This japanTimes article has more news on Japanese consumers continuing to tighten their belts as wages go down and deflation continues. As Supermarket sales hit 21-year low.
It did seem that the DPJ would allow the yen to float freely against the dollar when they first came to power, in order to spark some internal demand in the Japanese economy and give the hard pressed consumer a break, as the yen increased in value. Sadly more recently they seem to have decided to take the often used LDP technique of talking about government intervention when the yen strengthens in order the support the powerful exporters.
Where will it all end?
When the Japanese people finally run out of savings who will be left to buy the Japanese government bonds (90% of which are now purchased by Japanese people)? Who will support the massive government deficits? Foreign investors? I dont think so, they have their own problems. Eventually the government may get more than it bargained for- A very very weak yen.

@stokyo jake – You are welcome.
MJ will not help you if you have mercury poisoning. Do not use MJ as a crutch or a pain management tool as it is neither. Use of other compounds would be far more directed and far more responsible.
Mercury poisoning is unlikely to be curable because once the heavy metals get into your brain and past the blood-brain barrier; it is not very likely that you can get the mercury out.
If you are indeed dealing with mercury poisoning, you should have levels drawn by a doctor and the assessment of your neurologic findings should be done quickly.
EPA mercury exposure levels were routinely being exceeded by doctors in California and in many countries due to the presence of a mercury containing preservative called thimerosal which was added to many medications and vaccines.

People have been asleep for decades now. At least in the west. Given a better life. Food, shelter, protection. So they just went to sleep. Now their freedoms are being taken aware of bit by bit so they won’t get too riled and do something about it. The monsters setting this all up are very smart. They know what they are doing. Killing us slowly. Or gaining control of us slowly so we just go along with it.

marc authier, My finger to the wind on knowing how folks feel is my own family. They unbelieveably seem aware now that something wrong is being pushed down their throats. But since they’ve never done anything ever to stand up for anything they’ll just sit back and see what happens.
Lord help us. I’m guessing most folks are like this. They know something is wrong. But they won’t do anything about it. Not until it affects them dramatically.
The swindle is 22% real unemployment in the USA and 37 million people on food stamps. That’s the main swindle. No real economic activity. It seems to me sufficient proof. The swindle is that taxes are exploding. Just can’t understand why people don’t get madder or even get it. It’s not working. The same horrors and errors than in Japan. 20 years of economic activity stolen by these peddlers. You already have the results.
marc authier. Its pretty evident the stock market got propped up by the fed handing the big banksters almost 0% interest on trillions of dollars. Gee , surprise their stocks went up and the banksters have been selling into their stock rises. Surprise.
I guess this procedure could go on forever. Almost free money to the banksters. But one has to think theres got to be a catch to this easy swindle someplace.

In other words, the stock market rally has been about not improving economic prospects but rather utter BS, lies and . Let’s look at some basic statistics:
•15 stocks in the S&P 500 have a P/E over 100. 23 have a P/E over 60. 37 have a P/E over 40. 65 have a P/E over 30 and 152 have a P/E over 20. 220 – nearly half – have a P/E over 13, the historical long-term average. The latter statistic is trotted out from time to time to claim that the market as a whole isn’t overvalued, but 125 stocks in the S&P 500 have a negative P/E – that is one quarter of the S&P 500 has negative earnings.

Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement (ACTA) in fact has little to do with counterfeiting, or even with trade for that matter. It is instead a copyright treaty that would fundamentally ratchet up legal protections for rights-holders. If a deal is reached, it could have serious implications for heavy users of copyrighted material, including students, teachers and researchers.
ACTA has been inexplicably shrouded in secrecy since talks were launched two years ago. The lack of transparency is perplexing because, after all, we’re talking about a copyright treaty, not state secrets. Or so it would seem. In fact, the U.S. government refused a request from two public interest groups – the Electronic Frontier Foundation and Knowledge Ecology International — to release information on the treaty for reasons of “national security”.

the most influential German political economists were Lasalle & Feuerbach…both Hegelian imitations…..which is why Marx said he wanted to turn Hegel on his head…..nobody, at the time thought much of Marx…..even Marx abandoned his “economics” for traight politics….like so many other pied-pipers…he was intended to lead the proletarian to their death….and he succeeded.
there are only two organic classes gender & generation…..had Marx discussed the political non-productive class vs the non-political productive class as STRUGGLE…he would have been somebody…but, alas, that is not what he did….when you think of Marx; think of Samuelson…both empty suits…..we adore vacuous vessels.
@Jim. anything coming from the snidley wiplash family is spooks.
that chine woman velly velly smart.
Marx was nothing more than a Smith-Ricardo review….absolutely nothin’ that hadn’t already been said a million times already & much more clearly & concisely.
The real GENIUS ofEuropean Economics were the Scholastics at Salamanca. in the 1400-1600′s. Remember, it was Spanish Gold that generated what you call the Modern State-Political Economy…..the most critical modern event development was the bankruptcy of Philip II.,…set the world on fire…and it has stayed on fire ever since.
@Jim. you saying china got your money for magic beans? cause your right. climb the fucking stalk.

Yeah. A genius with words and on paper. But never mind for concrete solutions. It ended up in a goulag. Like I said good intellectual dope. Haschich is better.

Bank Fraud in Dubai.
$14 billion bank fraud foiled
http://www.stuff.co.nz/world/middle-east/3257596/14-billion-bank-fraud-foiled
@SG. it’s not our birthday.
Gordo…I have never been to China…..nor do I work in the “manufacturing field”. Nevertheless, I know many that have & do. From their reports & descriptions; I can only conclude that most “manufacturing” is merely JV US, European, & Japan ASSEMBLY. Obviously there is some manufacturing….but not anywhere near the size & significance advertised & mostly low-end(apparels, toys).
I cannot imagine anyone investing very valuable “abilities” in China…only those things they can afford to lose….or, are already out-dated….throw-aways.
The assembly is usually done in an industrial park where five plants each add a different component; often with the most valuable part held off in the mother country.
Overall, all the Chinese production I’ve used is poor & cheap…as intended. Finally, in MANUFACTURING labour is the smallest cost…only about 3%. Thus the story of Chinese price advantage is BULLSHIT…Machines(robotics//try & find a human being at a car plant) make things NOT PEOPLE…that is the biggest part of the overall employment problem. Even China has lost many job in Manufacturing…that is why everyone went into the FINANCIAL SERVICES//Servicing field in the last 25 yrs….that is why they created these bubbles…to disguise the loss of human production//income.
@ronron
I was not trying to offend.
SOS not fuck off
@SG. liked you better with thick skin. for me. thanks.
@ronron
Yes, I guess it depends on your definition of assembly.
He seemed to be drawing some fine distinction between assembly and manufacturing (importing parts for). Thought
there was more too it than I already knew.
@Gordo. the secret hand shake?wink wink. fuck off.
@ doomandbloom – You completely misread, friend. The US is appealing the dismissal of the charges against Blackwater.
“While we fully respect the independence and integrity of the U.S. judicial system, we were disappointed by the judge’s decision to dismiss the indictment, which was based on the way in which some evidence had been acquired,” Biden said.

Ok my english is not very good.
The question is: Whould only the Bond-holders lose there receivables or all people whith money in accounts.
This would be an massive deflationary aspect, cause the remain Dollaramount would increase in value, so the stockmarket and gold would crash, like prechter has in his wildest dreams.
i think the bildrbergr are more likly to let inflation to happen then deflation, but who knows, maybe they are willing to reduce massivly the worlds population?

The STATE is RELIGION. THE STATE IS GOD. THE STATE IS THE OPIATE OF THE MASSES…..BUT WHO IS THE STATE????
Just read another Yuan rally story. Prediction: if the Yuan is allowed to float(have big doubts)….then possibly the initial reaction will be UP…..that bid will be generated by the boyzs for EXIT Purposes ONLY. Most of the Hot Money going into China the last 15 yrs was a Real Estate Spec….not Manufacturing….Manufacturing(assembling) was a very convenient cover for creating a dominant position with the Warlords for dominating the upcoming Domestic Market…..any future bid in the Yuan will signal the END of the Property Bubble in China.
The Credit Bubble of the last 30yrs was primarily a Property Bubble(much bigger market than Equities)…..Japan, US, Europe, China et al. The Equity Rallies were simply derivatives(tag-alongs) to the PROPERTY BUBBLE….of course, the Worldwide Debt Bubble both dwarfs & symbolizes all of it. Finally, these bubbles are strongly assigned to dealing with the BOOMER PROBLEM…all of that is winding down.

Gordo…there are no investors. Investing requires much time & much hard work. All are just gamblers-betting….. buying their puts & calls on Reality….it is truly a gross inversion….very much indicating…denouement.

@frances snoot: “Dutch Admiralty law”…well yes that is the basis for usurping most common law as we have known it…as you are most likely aware Admiralty Law has to do with pirating…so as long as the Navy was in place to protect the Crown ( either Dutch of British )…then we are all victims to a cunning slight of hand…thus in America the Hobbs ruling and inter state commerce has become the catch all for any and all “crimes” agains the stater and federalized…thus the War on Drugs ( or most respectfully: the War Against America’s Citizens ) has increased the penal system from 200,000 to 2.2 million and making it the most incarcerated nation in the world ( 25% with 5% of the world’s population ) and reducing the school system to the lower eschellons (sp??) on the world scale…thus the greatest nation on earth is being systematically reduced to a banana republic before our eyes while the PTB keep repeating the mantra that the worst is over and the light is at the end of the tunnel…when in reality the heist is still going strong and the coup d’etat is a continuing criminal enterprise…adding injury to this madness is it is now “OUR” responsibility to bail out the criminals/fraudsters…by both increased fees, fines and taxes and rising prices leading us to a hyperinflationary depression..an animal we a s a people have never seen..so Yes the Admiralty Acts of old give foundation to the belief among the elite that they have due right to the wealth of nations and the avoidance of taxes for their cunning operations..thus we have GS’s Blankfein who ironically truly believes he is doing “g-d’s work”…and is rightly placed to accumulate the massive wealth in fewer and fewer hands…of course he is nor representative of the masses who he wishes to keep his ponzi scheme alive and well. in the end the jacobin’s will prevail…got your rakes and pitchforks yet????

Mammon. You know the one Mosse got real mad about ? And Jesus too in the temple. Did you know Jerusalemen temple in the of Jesus had two functions ? At the top of the temple it was the business of God and underneath a bank ! No kidding. I am seious.
The rabbis were also bankers like the Templars. The Templars probably adopted their banking model based on the Middle Eastern rabbis. Money and God don’t mix. Very dangerous.
Banking and religion have a lot in common, Both are great con games.

Overall, the Norman broke out of the Mediterranean in the 1500′s with the Venetian-Genoese——Latifundia Model(Byzantine based) in hand. Please remember the Sephardics kept both the Arabs & Ottomans goin’(with Aristotle’s help). The Sephardics moved into the Hapsburg Netherlands around the time of Ferdinand & Isabella….and that’s where the Anglo-Dutch movement started. Maybe of the early credits belong to the Portuguese & Henry the Navigator.

To create fighting between generations, like between ethnic groups, or between men and women, is part of their plan. Divide and conquer.

Here’s a YouTube quote from the Sven Hassel adaptation of Wheels Of Terror called ‘The Misfit Brigade.’ The strange effect of having American actors with accents as if they came from L.A. posing as Tank crews of the Third Reich comes as a curious anti-war statement.

@Jim – On Baby Boomers in America -
What is even more disgusting Jim is that these same Baby Boomers, having consumed more than any generation in world history, are now stealing productivity from the Gen X and Baby Busters behind them.
So, instead of the Busters and Gen X being able to go about life normally, they must support the welfare of the Boomers while the same people are killing their futures.
If you ask me, the Boomers are lucky to still have social security and medicare. The Gen Xers had every right to kill those programs immediately.

Hey. A want a “final solution” against Godamn Sachs. We know all well how to diagnose what is going on and how disgusting these plantation owners from Wall Street are. I bought gold and silver, closed a good part of my bank accounts. I live like a REAl greenie monk. But I want a SOLUTION to let them have it on the chin. OK. Let’s rephrase it. What is the best solution to bankrupt the USA and Goldman Sachs and the UK banksters ?
@Jim:
Doesn’t corporate personhood have something to do with Dutch Admiralty Law?
@DepressionAlert. what about a pony farm?
BTW…baby-boomer liquidation is WORLDWIDE…yes, including China.
The two guys who have the best handle on these historical “problems” are Antal Fekete & Michael Hudson….lend them your ear.
Best Investments going forward. Long-term
Farm Land \ Gold/Silver / Commodities/Short all Fiat currencies / Go long ETFs( Wheat /Potash)
Very short term: US Dollars ( 3 ot 6 months out)
Short Gold and Silver /Short China/Japan/Australia/NZ
Remembering that deposits(money) are loans not savings(Steve Keen)….in order for Money to grow…..something has to be collateralized to generate the loan(money). ….it is near impossible,under current circumstances, to imagine who or what will be collateralized going forward….especially if asset prices stay even of go lower in the future. In the meanwhile, baby boomers are massive natural sellers of real estate, stocks & bonds going forward…further reducing loans//dollars(and roughly half of it will disappear via estate taxes—VAPORIZED, once again.. Thus, where will the loans(dollars) come from going forward????
look what the cat dragged in.

@MarkAuthier. i believe max would start with paulsens head rolling down the stairs at the fed. not sure. what the fuck can he do.
Max if the Anglo Saxon triad goes into the clinker, than the world for the most part will follow, with the biggest and loudest crash coming in South East Asia ie (China). We have some nasty times coming our way.
Gordo…Mish, Faber & others may agree…but they have no clue as to why(other than being “contrary)….if they do…I haven’t heard it yet.
The what never matters; the WHY always does.
We are trading “public” policy…not markets, economy or finances. Revolt against the masses. The Political Class against the Productive Class…same story for thousands of yrs. These SOB’s are not smart enough or courageous enough to go any other way…why should they??
@Max
Soo the only conclusion is ? To solve the problem you need one big meteorite from space crashing on 85 broad street or the whole of Wall Street ? Ok two. One on the City and one on Wall Street. It’s the only solution. A real big big big meteorite. Can you really call it a market ? Not really. OK. Now what would be the solution for the 6 billion humans against these bloodsuckers. A part from buying gold and guns, and livinf in France, have you a solution to get rid Goldman Satan ?
addenda: Debt is Money & has been since Robert Walpole.

addenda: the real reason for the gold rally was to Enforce the dollar offer to cover massive dollar shorts(liabilities)…..the real reason for the dollar offer was to assist the Chinese preserve the little bit left of their export business(re:assemblage, not manufacturing)….while transitioning to a domestic economy….much has been “covered” the last 9 mths….time to go the other way…..the Public, like good Generals, will fight the last was the whole way.
@ jim
agreed Gold is going to get killed at some point.
USD should rise strongly
Mish agrees, even Faber agrees in the short term.
I think this was the trigger for the deflationary crash.
Why they dont make the cds null and void, close all banks, do there homework, open again without this derivatesmonster, Fed has to garant the deposits. And then completly monetize this Fiat$$$ with Gold, this would bring 50000$ per ounce.
Bahen chode madho chute Jon filliy buster idiot
gues’n its a wanna be fucker
Max…under Volcker: from 1978 to 1985; the dollar rallied from 80 to 165…a double.
Recommendation: stop believing the Headlines…..most markets go the OPPOSITE of the “preparing” spin. The headlines are necessary to generate the gigantic bid or offer Required to get the position both covered & reversed…think of the Japanese Housewives; for example.
The dollar is going to Scream….re-enforcing Dollar Hegemony. Just look at all the Foreign dollar-denominated bond issuance the last 9 mths. Their shorts(liabilities) are in dollars…..being covered. Their longs(assets) are in non-dollars(emerging markets) are be liquidated.
The Gold market is the classic example. The Gold offer from scrap is off the charts. The gold selling from producers is off the charts. The Collapse of Jewelry demand(roughly 80% of the market) is over 50%. Central Banks are trying to offset set this massive fundamental offer// imbalance via purchases(taxpayers problem once again).
Looking back: Volcker sold massive amounts of Bonds at the lows. Clinton bought them back at the Highs. Companies bought massive amounts of Stock(stock option offsets; which is where all the corporate debt came from) at the highs….and now is selling stock at the lows(banks & others). Gold is the same phenomena.
Besides: what “trader” would want to be short a market that has broken 98%….[dollar purchasing power]…..and no, the Reichsmark was not the reserve currency…big difference.
Dollars continue to be destroyed, retired….not renewed; at warp speed. There is a massive dollar should which will only continue…while their is a massive dollar bid…due to prior dollar claims, obligations(DEBT) moving forward.As you know assets are variable; liabilities are fixed. In other words; dollar production is falling…while relative dollar demand// is skyrocketing.

It goes really well with the Nazis working at NASA promoting the extermination of a good part of humanity in the name of ecology naturally.
Adolf Hitler was a fanatic vegetarian and an ecologist. He wanted to exterminate not just the Jews, the homos, the Communists, the Gipsies, but also all the “interior” races. (Poles, Russians, Ukrainians, Blacks) Corporate USA nazis are about the same when I think about Al Gore.
These people hate humanity. They hate USA. They hate democracy and they hate the middle class. But they love China and their way of governing and exploiting the masses.
Corporate USA is going chineese.

Are you sure you did not read that article incorrectly?
I read it and it seems like Biden wants the prosecution to move forward.

Corporations have no personality; they are an amorphous, mechanical function.
The solution…..turn the table. Regulate the Regulators. Make Persons….INCORPORATIONS.
I would start with all the NAZI-NASA greenies. Hey you fascist Al Gore USA greenies start by killing yourself. These green nazi bastards never consider by starting by themselves. Write the book and go kill yourself. Naturally thi neo-nazi pig from the Nasa probably takes the plane 500 times a year, flies an helicopter, eats 500 big macs, and live in 50 room manshon like their Al Gore satanic green pig.

this Volcker fawning is priceless…..there is no more Inside Charlie than Paul Volcker. He is & has always been……David Rockefeller’s boy.
Paul Volcker was John Connally’s Under Secretary Treasury in Aug,1971 when Nixon took the World off the Gold Standard for good. “It’s our Dollar; but it’s their Problem” was uttered at the time by Connally but was undoubtedly generated by Volcker as Connally was too stupid to understand any of it.
NO ONE is more RESPONSIBLE for the fiction & farce of the last 40 yrs than Paul Volcker. He totally assisted the the horror that was the Economy(markets) during the 1970′s leading to his formal arrival in 1978.
The De-Industrilization of the US & the horrific BUBBLE that was Japan in the 1980′s was Volcker’s doing.

looks like business as usual in the Obama camp…i was about to become hopeful…
There is nothing to be saved anyways. Destroy the middle class.Fundementally all this stuff is a lot like Margaret’s Poll Tax. Ruin the middle class by hook or by crook. United Krook is really the best example of what is to be expected across the G7. Once the middle class is exterminated and destitute, the establishment of a fascist dictatorship is piece of cake. Bust and ruin the people that still have an intellectual and cultural capacity to know what’s going on and then use the police and MI5 nazis to drone, to taser, to scan, to inject, to CO2 tax them to death.
NYU, that dominant, perennial Eastern hockey power; where all good Larchmont lads go to extend their very promising careers….didn’t know NYU had a rink….maybe they practice at Rockefeller Center??

OK, it’s easy and regular money, but is not IMO the worst part of WS.
The blatant (naked) shorting , price manipulation and scaring investors out of stocks goes on and on …. daily.
Check out GNVC which used to be 50 cents a few weeks ago and hit 3.10$ on Friday.
See the article @Max linked to on Twitter for a visualization of the next wave of the mortgage meltdown.

= Flipping assets from bank to bank before the auditors come .
Exactly what they did during the pre 1900 US Gold standard days … they moved their physical Gold from bank to bank, just in time for the auditors arrival.
( the auditors were always counting the “same gold” )
Good show .. great insights.
Listening to the show . . . . Max & Stacy, wondering if you’ve seen this story?: Geithner’s treasury may help banks avoid Obama’s proposed bank limits.
