  6. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Odious_debt

    Whole Greece debt is odious debt.
    400 billion!!

  7. Go get ‘em Max Keiser!

    Ron Paul just put the question to Ben Bernake about “the Federal Reserve” (i.e. US tax payers) bailing out Greece (time 4:35).

    Bernake (publicly) says it has no plans for bail-out of Greece (using US taxpayers wealth -to unf**k banksters’ crimes).

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=urkJ2WCQ5R0&feature=player_embedded

    Ron Paul also publicly (probably for the first time ever) accused “the Federal Reserve” of surreptitiously funding Saddam Hussein for $5.5 billion (as well as funding “Watergate scandal of 1970s) and cover-up in general of “Fed” activities.

  8. @Max. exactly. you just agreed with snoot.

  9. Michael Le Couteur MSCD, ret'd

    Another gem Max. I thought the other guests were going to swallow their tongues. “Put down the Ouzo!” LOL. Pick me, pick me Oh great IMF and World bank. I so want to be a slave. Jeez, the creep in the orange sweater made me want to barf.

  10. Take a bow Tim.

    I predict Max will be on the television in the next 6 months saying the exact same thing about my country.

  12. Ah man!

    Epic wipping by Max (go get’em!)

    Moronic greeks are truly wipping themselves to stupidity.

  13. LOLOLOL @ put down the ouzo, Max your too much!!

  14. As usual, everyone agrees with Max. Then promises to do nothing.

  15. @Max

    You managed to stay ‘in rapport’ the whole time. That must have helped convey your message.

  16. YOU GO MAX.. fucking a**hole analysts in greece fucking pre-wound soapbox toys.. GRRR

  17. @MotherEarth – you’re CLEARLY male. How about trying something for a change: when you don’t have something useful to say shut the fuck up

  18. @Dare

    Follow your own advise first. I look at Max in the media for years now (since 2005 I guess) and I just gave some feedback. He can be alienating at times, this time I thought he wasn’t.

  19. @ Max

    Great show…..keep losing the head!

  20. Didn’t they forget Italy in PIIGS?

  21. I agree with the guy who said that the Greeks are partly responsible for the problem. Just like the rest of us.
    It is blinkered to only blame Wall St and the Greek govt.
    polis = politics = the people

  22. @Danny

    Agreed.

    We’re next, This is going to get messy lad..

    Will someone just fuckin shout STOP…

  23. Top form Max!

  24. Video
    This is great, classic, Max.
    Nailed down facts – bing, bang, boom.

    Aside: Euro currency was a screwball idea to begin with, 10 years ago.
    As a chain-link currency, it is only as strong as its weakest link(s), e.g. PIGS.
    And there are other Euro weak sisters that the MSM have failed to examine.

  25. @Mep

    I heard Giuliani say in an interview he did not mind bankers making huge profits and getting bonuses, because that meant several billion in taxes for NY each year..

  26. @ ronron

    just got in from retail hell…came here to get my daily dose of good cheer and the end is coming invective….(promises promises) watched your clip on Mr. TED and was rewarded with both

    “Wells Fargo C*CKS*UCKERS”

    hilarious

    thanks ronron

  27. That was a good show.

    I thought the Greek analysts were reasonably good to.
    They are probably limited in what they can say as they are part of the system. Not sure about them believing that the protesters as a small minority.

    Regarding the economic reforms (getting rid of corruption) this looks like code words for getting rid of the black market in Greece which I think is maybe larger their than other Euro nations. It is just a way of homogenizing the markets into the Anglo-American system. Anglo-American corruption is about 3 orders of magnitude more virulent than the black market and likely resembles a real free market a lot more than anything the UK or America now has.

    It is looking more and more like austerity is coming around the world, the question remains, who bears it? Will it just be the Greeks or will the banks in the other Euro nations take hair cuts also?

  28. I’ve just drawn this satirical cartoon, which has a pop at the controversial ‘Crossrail’ scheme, for a fast train link running west to east across London – basically linking Heathrow to Canary Wharf and the City.

  33. Great rant, Max.

    Economic Recovery is Only for the Rich…
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wbd5RljRARU

    “Glorified weathermen.”

  34. The Underfundedmentalist

    I don’t think the protesters were the minority. In fact, it looked like the cops were the minority. Funny how the ‘minority’ was represented by two fraudpologists, and they still got beat down by one MadMax. Unfortunately if those two imf hitmen can’t get their job done in Greece, the jackals will be sent in to finish up. Once again the west will bloody the birthplace of its democracy as a warning to those who believe fiscal policy should be a democratic process.

  35. @ Mother Earth – Hopefully, we’ve learned our lesson about relying on Wall Street pay for tax revenue. NY state leaders should start looking elsewhere for those billions: in places like overseas tax shelters, in higher tax rates for the most wealthy, in health insurance reform, and maybe even in closing corporate welfare tax loopholes and subsidies.

  36. I wish Max was on national TV here in the USA. The sheeple could use a heavy dose of reality. Max would bring it and become a star.

  37. @ Underfunded – Yeah, it didn’t sound very credible when that one analyst called the protesters the minority, and then said that the majority understands that “structural adjustment” (nice IMF terminology there) is necessary. He didn’t say what he meant by S. A., but after Max called them both on “selling out their countrymen”, the one who made the structural adjustment comment seemed to backpeddle a bit by remarking that a segment of the population pays no taxes at all. (Don’t know if he was referring to people at the lowest rungs of the socioeconomic ladder or those at the very top, though.)

  38. @ Charles – All of the righties would call him a socialist, and they’d trash Stacy even more, because wingnuts detest intelligent women.

  39. Godamn! That was good Max!!!!!

  40. Good sh*t Max.

  41. I guess the only point of diversion is that Greeks and other debtor nations will need to go through a painful period of restructuring and re-establishing good governance. The only issues is; will the profits of restructuring end up in the hands of the banksters or in the hands of the people. Our supine, greedy, Machiavellian, arrogant, inept, debased, debauched, brainless, sycophantic, useless, covetous, grasping, avaricious, sans testicles political class are unable to stand up for the people that they represent.

  42. Max Keiser – Goldman Sachs Helped Greece Mask Real Debt

    Am waiting for the “Collaspe”, like am getting Old here, its been 3 years!…….is anything going to happen?
    Mike

  44. Hmm. At the end of the interview, Max agrees with the two assholes and their neo-liberal (actually neo-feudalist) horseshit: ‘oh yeah, the Greek people got to take the hit, take it on the chin, it’s gonna be painful, but in the end, oh boy oh boy, you gots that magical thing capitalism! TA DA!” Bullshit. They take it up the ass, and thats all they fucken get. Period. Anything else is just baloney. There’s no fucking reason the Greek people.. or any people.. got take anything from anybody. Guess where Marx got his much maligned labour theory of value? From the Neo-liberals’ god, Adam Smith!

    Max is WAY better chewing these bastards out than agreeing with them. Should the Icelanders bite the bullet and take it up the ass too? Why? Fuck that noise. Iceland, Greece, Spain, Ireland, everything.. tell the greedy liars to shove it up their collective ass! Arrest the bankers. Confiscate everything they’ve stolen. If they flee, send the secret police after them to snatch ‘em back. KGB ‘em into absolute submission. Grrrrr!

  45. …and straight away MAX IS PROVED RIGHT by Hans-Werner Sinn, head of Germany’s IFO economic institute who says

    “Europe should call Greece’s bluff. If the euro falls, so much the better. “The euro is overvalued anyway. It is way out of line, and a weaker euro would be quite useful for Europe to stimulate exports.”

    of course the Greek Deputy PM hasnt helped Greece’s situation by announcing that Germany

    “had no right to reproach Greece for anything after it devastated the country under the Nazi occupation, which left 300,000 dead. “They took away the gold that was in the Bank of Greece, and they never gave it back. They shouldn’t complain so much about stealing and not being very specific about economic dealings,”

    http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/financetopics/financialcrisis/7309861/Greek-rescue-in-danger-as-deputy-prime-minister-attacks-Nazi-Germany.html

    …looks like they didnt put down the Ouzo, Max n Stacey

  46. Its like the financial collapse that never happened.

  53. My big fat greek wedding with Satan Goldman. Serves them right to fuck wiht the devil. The more I read about Greece the more I think they desserve to burn in hell. The country should simply declare bankruptcy, kick out Goldman Sach. It’s really to nice indeed to just kick them out. Only that ? Use your imagination. Stupid Greeks.

  57. You cannot really compare Iceland with Greece. In Iceland, Greece ran huge deficits whereas Iceland is being asked to bail out private debt which is a nonsense

  58. oops one Iceland too many

  59. @GGees. goldman sachs can take out a country in many ways. they got to the banks in iceland and the government in greece. same scam.

  60. Ron thats true just pointing out to Casper that Iceland has a more “moral” case to tell Goldman, UK and Holland to go fck themselves

  61. @Bonn

    Now you into it, here some highres echolon damage pics http://tinyurl.com/y9ftnp7

    Yeah , sure Joe did that with his little plain …(Not).

  62. The Greece government can’t kick out Wall Street bankers, that would be the same as kicking themselves out of the office. As it seems to me that it was a cooperation between wall street and the government rather than purely exploitation by the wall street bankers. Greece did ask Goldman Sachs for help to hide deficits and who knows what else they have done to hide debt the last decade.

There are those who compete who is going to get the biggest boat-house etc, and all the others, who pay for the biggest boats-houses etc. It would be nice if as with the athletes who have on them the names of their sponcors, there would be tags on those mega yachts with the greek, the australian, the french flags, to commemorate the succers who paid for them.

    Not good …. !

    …The incendiary comments came as some 50,000 Greeks took to the streets of Athens to protest over austerity plans aimed at wrenching the country out of a debt crisis that has shaken the eurozone….

    Did a politician say this ?
    …. or was is “planted” agitators ?

    Maybe covert operation to destabilize the Euro (zone)

    I posted months ago that there is a PR war going on to make the US$ look good ( buy “our” debt / TBonds ) … and thus means a propaganda to kill the euro !

  100. @ronron

    I have switched to accumulating silver, but I am not selling gold, buy and sell the PM stocks though.

    Found this,, I guess it depends where you order from. And purity

    A Goods and Services Tax (GST) of 5% (effective January 1, 2008) is imposed by the federal government on all gold coins of less than 99.5% purity, including the pre-1933 European and U.S. gold coins. Gold coins, bars, ingots or wafers refined to a purity level of 99.5% or greater (including the Maple Leaf, Austrian Philharmonic and Australian Nugget gold coins) are exempted from federal GST.

    Additionally, a Provincial Sales Tax (PST) or a combined Harmonized Sales Tax (HST) may be collected on gold coins of less than 99.5% purity. Gold coins refined to a purity level of 99.5% or greater have been exempted from PST in the following provinces: Alberta, British Columbia, Quebec, Northwest Territory and Yukon. PST ranges from 6% to 8% in the remaining provinces.

  129. I think there should be a movie a la Forrest Gump starring Maxx Keiser and he is inserted at critical moments in our financial history in news shows cutting through the BS all the way through the lead up to this disaster (will someone please make this movie). There is some thing surreal about seeing you on Tee vee Max and it makes it so clear how much BS we have listened to and how it is so unexpected to hear someone cut through the BS on the tube.

    Good show.

    Marc Carney the bank of Canada governor comes from the “MAFIA”. The “firm” has a name. GOLDMAN SACHS. Yeah I know Ronron. A Goldman Sachs gangster at the head of Bank of Canada. Just proves that Canada has ceased to exist. We passed from french colonialism, to british colonialism. And now we are stuck with american imperialism. Canada has never existed. NEVER. Might as well go live in log cabin, a tipi in the north or in a cave. In reality Goldman Sachs is THE GOVERNMENT. Democracy has been abolished.

    And with the “AID” (these bastards call it aid) they will ask a reduction of 30% benefits for people on unemployment !!!!!!!! So it’s the braket of 500 to 600 euros per month.

    A unemployed will soon be receiving in Gree 350 to 420 euros ! Try to pay your rent and your food with this in Europe. Fuckin hell. They are asking the biggest sacrifices to the poorests. You could understand for government workers.

    But -30% for the unemployed in one monstruous shot. This crisis is just beginning. It’s looking more and more like a structural IMF plan indeed.

    Which one is the Greek guy?
    Looks like the problem with Greece has been ‘apathy’ if the other two guests are any indication.
    Anyway, as Max says, its not just Greece. Governments all around the world are happy for someone to step in and ‘help’ them with debt, even if they are dodgy bankers. In Australia we have announced that we are gong to import beef from the US. Here the farmers are killing excess cattle and our government announces that we will import beef from the US.
    Governments are bad, government is bad. They don’t represent anyone. They just bow to pressure from the powerful.
    This needs to happen peeps. But as usual it will be those least aware and least involved in the whole mess that suffer.
    Thanks for making us aware of this shite M and S, I wouldn’t have known either. I’d be thinking the Greek guys were nice fellas who like the status quo :)

    Great comments way to go ! I hope Greece is no canary and you will not have to make a forced trip in a gulfstream, but a sharp AG like Alberto “Mack” G would construe what you said as an attack on an agent of the Fed , GS and their business with Greece is a mater of national security.

  157. Most economists are parsites. The biggest employers are governments and banks. It says it all. Highly paid whores to say what the boss wants. Smile. Good work indeed. Don’t forget. All these central banks are filled with economists. Astrologers and magicians would do a better job. Economic science is like modern banking and finance. A big fat demonic joke.

  158. Bush probably helped Germany. Germany (and austria, swiss, hungary, italy, etc, etc.) were very anti-Communist and very pro Christian (ie pro Vatican). Bush was pro Germany and Christianity and anti-Communist. They feared Stalin and a possible communist invasion of europe. Bush and most of America shared this viewpoint.

  159. Hey Fellow Canadians out there!
    I didnt no Mark Carney was a Goldman Sachs stooge. Even more cannon fodder to add to the Conservatives whom are pulling the US/UK/Israel/North American Union line. I love it!

    Canada’s debt is 500 Billion, thanks to the Cons once again. If that is what is happening in Greece with cutbacks then it will be as explosive here in Canada when the sh*t hits the fan.

    @Max could address the economy situation in one of your shows please. We know we are screwed. Our media has moments of truth but only barely. We are still being kept in the dark about a great many things. I believe I know more what is happening in the US than Canada at times. However it is changing.

    Our government bailed out GM so technically every Canadian should get a deal on a GM car either free or hell of a discount. Nothing like soft fascism up here in Canada.

    Kark Denninger February 2010.

    But if the EU knew about it and played “bubblenomics” then they have a bigger problem because there’s Spain, and Portugal, and perhaps Italy involved in this mess too.

    There’s roughly EUR $3 trillion in PIIGS debt involved here all-in, and I don’t think the ECB or the EU is up to trying to stomach that, never mind that the Eastern European states aren’t exactly stable from a fiscal perspective either.

    I don’t see how they get out of this, to be honest, but we should pay close attention to the reaction of those who are being told that the government tit is drying up – because that day is coming to America, and when it does, the reaction here is likely to be rather interesting as well.

  172. Dear Mr. Keiser & Ms. Herbert:

    Please find below my comment to former Astronaut Edwin “Buzz” Aldrin, the second man to step on the moon, (immediately after Neil Armstrong on that same mission in 1969), to his commentary yesterday on HuffingtonPost.com

    I explain to Dr. Aldrin that FOR THE PAST 2 DECADES the Big Finance Neo-Cons HAVE REVERTED to their HISTORICAL roots: ROYALIST ELITISTS, who CARE NOT if AMERICANS ARE FIRED, denied health care, or denied their shredded, overstretched, and KILLED BY DEFICITS social safety net;
    ….just as, during the era of “Dickensian England,” the ROYALISTS & BANKERS CARED NOT that ONE MILLION IRISH souls DIED OF FAMINE & famine related diseases, as the Nobles, land-lords, British Army, AND LONDON BANKERS, FORCED MILLIONS of families OFF the so-called “estates” – entire towns & villages – where their families had lived for centuries, indeed, England’s landlords, army, and bankers were SHIPPING GRAIN, FROM Irish estates, AT THE VERY HEIGHT of the famine !!

    Sincerely -
    L.

    ================================================
    Spaceships Worthy of the Name

    Dear Dr. Aldrin:

    Welcome to the NeoCon hijacking of America.

    Unlike your PhD thesis on space rendezvous by sight guidance, this is not rocket science: In the words of Professor Michael Hudson, today’s “financial parasitism” http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article24612.htm

    has made financial fraud the Alpha & Omega of the American economy.

    Just as British lords & landlords concentrated great fortunes, at the expense of English, Scots, Welsh, Irish, & others they forcibly removed from towns, villages, & estates during “the enclosures,” leading not only to the grim images of Dickensian England, but leading directly to the Great Famine, (1845-1852) killing over one million souls of famine & famine related diseases in Ireland.

    At least the British INDUSTRIALISTS had INDUSTRY to show for their RUTHLESS “PEOPLE BE DAMNED!” economic policies. Today in America, America’s bankers are DESTROYING America’s industry, with NOTHING to show for their damn bailouts, but CHARGING _us_ Americans INTEREST, for THEIR damn bailouts!

    This is not exaggeration or hyperbole on my part, the proof is simplicity itself:

    The nation that powered the Allies to victory in WWII as “THE ARSENAL OF DEMOCRACY” today… has NO INDUSTRIAL POLICY!

    For several decades we’ve been told what “FINANCIAL GENIUSES” our economic “leaders” (below) are… but America is TWO DECADES BEHIND SPAIN, in making High Speed rail a viable alternative to hazardously overcrowded air corridors… in the NY-Boston-DC-Richmond corridor, only the center of gravity of the ENTIRE United States economy!

    I could go on & on & on, but for the TWENTY+ TRILLION dollars we have handed the banksters, with NOTHING to show for it but artificially inflated (government “pumped”) Wall Street stock prices, we could have had just about every big-ticket item on America’s wish list (besides expanding wars) punched.

  173. Hello Max & Stacy,

    Regarding the bond market in the context of the ongoing Toyota story,
    am I the only one having this thought ?

    Whatever may be the case with the flaws around Tpyota cars and the recalls,
    all hyped up beyond the limit in msm, one must ask WHY so loud this time ?

    The only reason that makes sense to me is this:

    Demand for US treasuries is weakening already,
    China begun dumping since November and the trend continues.

    With Japan being the newest top holder of UST,
    Mr Geithner now depends on Japan to fill the demand gap in the upcoming auctions.

    And this must happen NOW before the next data points confirm the trend.

    I wish and hope you make this possibility a topic in your coming episodes on RT.

    Thanks for all your efforts & be safe all !

    Kind Regards,

  174. Hi Max,

    You were talking some time ago about the casino-gulag and about how people are going to slave whole day long growing stuff on FarmVille to be able to buy a can of beans. Well I’ll up the ante and send you this link:

    http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2010/02/24/this-hunger-for-reality/

    It’s from a game developers’ conference Feb 17 and Feb 19 in Las Vegas (the irony of that is not lost on me…). The first 10 minutes or so are more about games and game development… but after that the horror begins in earnest. I suppose you know about people that are terrified that the govts will have us tagged with RFID chips like chattel. That’s nothing compared to what this guy is fantasizing about. I never even imagined that I would ever witness such a terrifying speech coming from anyone not connected to a govt. Check it out for yourself if you have the time.

    Also, to put things into perspective, I’m not some kind of luddite, scared of technology or anything like that. As a matter of fact, I’m quite the opposite, being a PhD student and working on location estimation and location estimation privacy technologies. That being said, I can say for certain that at least half of what that’s guy is talking about is pure SciFi at the present moment and most of the rest wouldn’t gain much acceptance (at least at first). Nevertheless, the glee with which the guy was talking about all that was absolutely terrifying.

    Best regards,
    M

  177. hello,

    Fine presentations of all shows recently, but i got some comments: You
    say “free market capitalism” the government has to stay out of the
    markets at all time and this part is where i do agree savers/producers
    have to be rewarded and speculators ‘demotivated’ by high interest
    rates for borrowing. On the inside story on al jazeera yesterday (24 -
    2 -2010) you owned the propagandists/other economic analysts that were
    selling out the greece people/ But now it comes; you said that
    government acts after the market fails according to me it goes
    differently; First of all why government some times need to step in
    the market; Poverty (no money to be made problems will remain), more
    important: slavery (Yes it still exists and the (western) media can
    ignore it all it want but there are millions working in slavery, not
    even counting the debt slaves else it would be billions; walmart, gap,
    nike, levi etc.) There are some more situations where governments have
    to step in; like infrastructure, social security etc. now that leads
    to my next problem: corruption. Where there’s power there’s
    corruption, so transparency and accountability are very important to
    have a functioning society which is largely a role of the media. Then
    we come to the point i was wanting to make; the corporations first get
    power/big (although there’s a list of global giants that have ‘ruled’
    the world last decades/centuries) then use the profits to lobby for
    the regulation beneficial to their industry The banks already were in
    government to set low interest rates, ‘deregulate’ etc. Then used the
    government to switch the blame: Yes government had a large share in
    what has happened but it all has been premeditated, i could easily
    proof this was in the pipeline for the last 15 years at least. If
    banks need more capital because the requirements or higher interest
    rates for savers: any idea what banks already did to get more money?
    fund 2 sides of war, drug policies, beside program trading,
    derivatives, synthetic cdo’s, tax evasion fraud etc. etc. So to sum
    up; if corporations are allowed to run completely free which they
    would in a ‘free market’ it would lead to even greater
    exploitation/(environmental) destruction etc. There is a very thin
    line to be balanced on between government and free markets. I
    personally see corporatism as consequence of failure by socialism and
    capitalism combined. As extra perspective on my opinion on free market
    capitalism; someone can argue that if a person works for slave wage
    (india/china and more places) that this is the person’s own choice and
    people buying products of that company is a choice as well. While if
    you look at the situation; decrease of purchasing power/low incomes
    have no choice but to buy cheap products because that’s all those
    families can afford. If a person doesn’t work for 20 ct a day his/her
    family has nothing; that’s how the IMF keeps fooling people with
    ‘increase’ of wealth. Anyways I don’t know all answers, i just analyse
    situations; more minds usual can figure out more than 1. My personal
    view is that by taking back the money supply in hands of the
    government/elected regulator etc. (make sure there are limitations to
    creation of money by gold standard or other regulations, maybe
    separated interest rates for speculators, mortgageholders and savers;
    also making sure the poorest countries aren’t paying highest interest
    rates etc.) ending war (new international treaty that says; any
    politician suggesting to go to war has to go himself, first to be on
    the battle field last to leave and no profits may ever be made over
    war whether that is ‘production’ or interest over borrowed money etc.
    yet the UN treaty of human rights doesn’t work either because
    governments in the last article states; may take away all
    rights/temporary privileges if they want) and a new global minimum
    wage based on living standards (so a person may never work for less
    than would provide him/her and his/her family with
    shelter/food/water/health care/pension etc.) will lead to a much more
    prosperous society. If i write all my thoughts on what should
    happen/could be done with unintended consequences and so on this e
    mail would become almost a book, so i’m going to stop with the couple
    options above.

    On the failure and intentions of the EU; you might want to interview
    nigel farage (uk independence party in the EU parliament) he has an
    very sharp view on what’s happening there.

    Keep up the excellent work; Tell the people as it is!

  189. The sovereign debt crisis was not created by the banks, which want to make profit. It was created by governments’ irresponsible policies and regulations aimed at buying votes (including those of bankers) by manipulating the financial system through constant money printing and spending ineffectively. If you think at the Ponzi scheme built, where governments saved banks (which manipulated the system) and then issue bonds to be sold to banks which also bet on sovereign defaults of country they helped to spend more and keep manipulating the system….

  195. @Max n Stacy: I hope you check out the VidCall offer above.

  196. The One, The Only, MAX KEISER rooaaaaaaaaar, I almost had a tinge of pity for your fellow guests, but seening as they’re just apolgist mouthpieces fuck’em. Max a modern day Themistocles, if only.

  197. Yeah Max, you are the only reporter who has the testicles and gumption to use names with his commentary on this ‘crisis’. As in Goldman Sacks and the names of the thieves & thugs in Goldman’s front office.

  198. Awesome, Max repeatably bitch slaps the self hating Greek commentators untill they discover a backbone and start standing up for their own country. Bravo Max.

  199. Good to see the Greeks kicking up about the proposal to move the retirement age up to 63, retiring at 60 fuckin’ bliss.

  200. “The issue which has swept down the centuries and which will have to be fought sooner or later is the people versus the banks.”
    - Lord Acton

    The bankers have employed the same play for centuries

    Here is how it works

    First they flood the market with easy money; then they retract the money supply, (which was done this time via the rules of TARP & Basel II, etc).

    When the money supply is retracted, corporations cannot fund their manufacturing. Thus, they have to lay off

    Once everyone is in bankruptcy, these same bankers come in and swoop up all the assets for pennies on the dollar!

    Even according to the White House’s new budget projections, the gross federal debt will exceed 100 per cent of GDP in just two years’ time. This year, like last year, the federal deficit will be around 10 per cent of GDP. The long-run projections of the Congressional Budget Office suggest that the US will never again run a balanced budget. That’s right, never.

    Oddly, the Greeks, who only suffer (I believe) 27% of GDP loss to bankers have the balls to stand up to their masters – Yet the Americans do nothing at all!

    America has the government they deserve!

  201. I love max keizer hes upfront & he means business i support max keizer…….
