I guess corruption on the left is OK, if this was on the right Stacy would be all over it like a wet t shirt
UK MP sleaze continues
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F-6auGQ2eIc
@WL – I know you like to play that Red Team / Blue Team thing; but we’ve covered Labour sleaze over and over and over again, every week on the Truth About Markets for 5 years now; sorry that I attack the Red Team sometimes, but we also do it to the Blue Team too
@WL. i posted that story yesterday. now a vid. cool.

@stacy
This latest story is huge and I am sure both Teams do it. No doubt, but you tend to mitigate the lefts malfeasance and enhance the right. All I suggest is even exposure. I am not promoting the right in any way. Political corruption by all sides is the fucking cancer and the reason that the people have no representation in the system on either side.
The real problem is that those on the left do not hold their own accountable and those on the right do not hold their own accountable and that has led to as you call it blue team red team BS.
I disagree with almost everyhting this guy is saying. SHEEP leading SHEEP.
@Max. you can learn.
@WL – sorry, but I believe you are selectively reading our headlines that probe the ‘right’ and not looking at the same that probe the ‘left’; I don’t see much if any difference between the two sides on markets or finance; the only real difference in the US right/left paradigm is on social issues and well there I will be for what the left stands for, I’m not for restricting women’s rights and I’m not for bashing immigrants, etc.
This kid sounds like has been doing alot of reading, from shoddy at best economic books and pamplets. He’s a REPEATER. Give me a break Max I respect you and your lovely partner Stacy’s opinions. But this is just pure BULLSHIT , how about something original.
sorry for sounding so arrogant and impolite, but this guy has me steaming. he sounds like a propogandist shill.
@stacy
Do you actually believe that > if these MPs were on the “right” and the right was in power that you would not be all over this story?
I am saying that you should be paying more attention to it, not because they are right or left but because it is an example of systemic political corruption.
@WL – I’m saying that you have obviously NOT listened to one single Truth About Markets story; we have been talking about Labour non-stop for five frigging years; we have already covered this story over and over on our radio show; it’s old news now; I hate the Labour with every ounce of my soul and their continued presence on the daily newspapers contributed greatly to my leaving there because I didn’t have to listen to or read about any more of their lies and at least in France I don’t have to listen to or care about the lies and corruption of this govt; and re: the UK, I am positive Cameron / Tories will be the exact same, I can’t think of much they would have done differently; again, I posit that you are hoping to find an imbalance skewed in the direction that favors your personal position on the right / left scale
What the FED is effectively saying with the “we do not need a reserve requirement” is :
# We control the money
# We decide what it is worth
# We will decide who gets it
# We are Saints… No, we are God .. so you can trust us completely
Their arrogance can only be accepted if they truly were “God” !
short comic/ cartoon strip about family arguments: http://davemiller.org/drawings/people/fa_23_feb.png
I traveled trough Zargeb in 1988 when inflation was 40% per month (or was it 400). Not wise to cash in travelers checks before yo use the cash, no items in the supermarket (very big, but empty. Successive hamburgers would have less garnish (first one comlete, second one no lettuce etc.) But Holland had virtually no inflation.
What do you make of this chart? This guy contends that we are at the point where incomes can’t meet the requirements of debt service.
http://economicedge.blogspot.com/2010/03/most-important-chart-of-century.html
@davem – bravo! good comic strip, captures the debate on this thread
Real US inflation is close to 10% this year and rising not 3 according to shadow stats. What’s with the spin, on inflation Mr.Gregory White. What are you covering up, or why are you circle jerking us in a public spotlight opportunity is my real question.
@Elwood – we had a discussion in a previous thread about that chart; you might want to check it out here: http://maxkeiser.com/2010/03/21/debt-saturation-the-most-important-chart-of-the-century/
@stacy
False, I will criticize all sides. To paint me as a righty because I criticize the left is a strawman. I criticize those in power, it happens to be left mostly right now as they have power globally. I was as critical of the Bush/Cheney cabal as anyone.
The left has completely failed to hold its own accountable enabling corruption and creeping Statism. Just as the right did when they had power.
@Phil
Bernanke will stare out of a window one day and continue to do so for a billion years as he feels his fungal mind collaps in a puff of pollen..
@DepressionAlert – this issue is addressed in the conversation; it depends upon how you define inflation and deflation; is it always a monetary phenomenon then you see in the M3 numbers here: http://www.shadowstats.com/alternate_data/money-supply-charts there is massive deflation; that shows even more dramatically in the velocity of money; but CPI is up but that is measures something different to what M3 and loan velocity will capture: http://www.shadowstats.com/alternate_data/inflation-charts

@WL&Stacy. there are no teams. people are fooled to take sides on meaningless drivel while the criminals laugh at them.
According to this article: http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601087&sid=a1BR_Tl.zPAo&pos=6
“JPMorgan, Bank of America Corp., Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley and Citigroup Inc. executed 96 percent of the $293 trillion in over-the-counter derivatives trades made by the top 25 U.S. bank-holding companies and their customers as of Sept. 30, according to the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency.”
This suggests that a one percent tax on derivative trading could finance the entire US budget.
What do you make of this?
@stacy thanks!
@Elwood Anderson
My two Krona..Aren’t you falling into the trap of thinking there is a there there? These are contracts for low fees without reseves but with a high payout. The do not represent anything other than a potential obligation to pony up money (which we know is not in store). Levying a 1% would (I think) completely wipe out the market as it may be so little or even less real cash is going around (but there I may exagerate).
@Mother Earth
In that case it sounds like a good way to stop speculation in derivatives.
@ronron
Yes, that is the point I am trying to make with Stacy but she keeps smearing me as a rightty whenever I criticize corruption on the left. I am criticizing corruption period, it happens to be left only because they have power now.
It is clearly the elite banskter political control of the State right and left vs its people.
There is no doubt that if the right was in power and these politicians were on the right, Stacy would be all over this story. No doubt.
I say give this story the importance it deserves independent of the right left paradigm.
good show as always….the comments as always run the same well trodden path
@WL.this story is all over the MSM so it’s not something Stacy should drone about. outrage stated. move on.
i should have worn a puffy shirt.
off topic. same shit different team. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EJz_xZZOnE8&feature=player_embedded

Jim I can listen to, he says move to Asia and he leads by example by moving his whole family there. but this guys says go to Asia but can’t even go down the street to get a hair cut.
@ronron
The MP story is not the issue. It is incumbent upon everyone to point out conformational bias. WE all have it, We all deny it. Challenging that bias makes us better critical thinkers and human beings, whether we know it or not.
I challenged Stacy to make her think about her own bias. I would expect the same.
@Stacy et al on Inflation / Deflation
Both can happen at the same time. In a serious economic crisis overpriced speculative asset bubbles decrease, whereas day-to-day neccessities (which have been excessively cheap), e.g. food, energy etc. increase:
“Important is to UNDERSTAND a hyperinflationary depression sees simultaneously and FALLING prices (HOCG) and rising prices (LOCG). [HOCG = High order capital goods (ex. Real Estate) – LOCG = Low Order Consumer Goods (ex. energy and food) ”
See:
http://www.goldonomic.com/(hyper)inflation_&_locg.htm
“False, I will criticize all sides. To paint me as a righty because I criticize the left is a strawman. I criticize those in power, it happens to be left mostly right now as they have power globally. I was as critical of the Bush/Cheney cabal as anyone.”
That statement demonstrates what you are, the right dominates every aspect of every thing. Top to bottom.
More likely though probably just realizing that the right has fucked everything up so much that you are using the usual RW tactic of deflecting all blame onto the left as that is the only cover the right has “LEFT”?
You have not been smeared you are warped.
I just voted for Max as President for Greece on http://omadeon.wordpress.com/#pd_a_2913594

They are all corrupt. They are all Statists
Maybe check your own bias…
@ronron
right on, it is always easier to be critical of those in power at the time, therefore it my appear to be political survivorship bias

He is not a Statist and that is why the right and its cohorts hate him and marginalize him.

Can anyone here put on a market fundamentalist hat for a few minutes and explain how allowing banks to keep no reserves would benefit the economy?
Serious question. I would love to see Bernacke explain his rationale to the public at large.

Did people ever consider the option of pushing health reform individually and collectively state-by-state, to find ways to (1) protect the uninsured, (2) protect against pre-existing conditioned applicants, (3) catastrophic care, (4) controlling costs through market reforms, tort reform?
Why are we always looking for an all-powerful “daddy” to fill the gap? Why don’t constituents within a state demand what is best for those residents in that state?
If only the competition among states was heightened more than it is and not obscured by a “federal overlord”, perhaps we would be in a better condition, economically and socially.
I will the rue the day of my chains. Because in this direction, we are going to allow the Federal Government to get larger, more bureaucratic, more hostile, more intrusive…and more evil.

@ Mep truthfully I see it as more of a way for the FED to dodge accountability when the future crash happens, but I guess the argument would be that removing this restriction on capitol would increase activity or the amount that could be lent therefore stimulating growth
@doomed – yes, a handful of states tried pushing for single payer … Knowing that it is the most humane, fiscally conservative, freedom-enhancing Intelligent thing to do.
@ WL
I know as well as you do that my point is do not throw around loaded terms…its asinine and destructive to reasonable debate…my side crippled Debate in the 1800′s by throwing around those terms and locked my side of the debate out and isolated us to the indefensible position of “guns and dynamite” of individual action
I believe all forms of hierarchical structures must be challenged, but those that are democratic in nature are less repulsive than the arbitrariness of those in the market driven world…several of my interlocutors here seems to have no qualms with surrendering rights to economics
@ Charles – re: increasing the amount that could be lent out, I can see how that argument could be made… just don’t see how someone like bernacke could make it given that a)overleveraging coupled with both accounting fraud and low reserves played such a large role in the collapse, and b) total household debt on the US is already = to the annual GDP. So sho in the heck would borrow? Speculators? How long can that illusion sustain an economy?
@William of the North
I agree. Dr. Paul is a true gentleman, a man with integrity is hard to find these day.

PARALLELS OF WEIMAR HYPER-INFLATION
Hyper-inflation remains a threat, as parallels are strong with 1922 in the Weimar Republic of Germany. Ben Bernanke has been set in contrast to Rudolf von Havenstein, the central banker responsible for Germany’s hyper-inflationary period. The parallels are absolutely shocking between the US climate of 2010 and that of the infamous Weimar Republic. Despite 1922 being such a long time ago, the more advanced and sophisticated financial framework and government actions bear frightening parallels to the Weimar Republic. Grasp the parallels. They are as lengthy as they are ominous in foretelling price problems dead ahead.

Being cowards, Congress and the President naturally decided that the tax increases would not begin until January 1, 2013, instead of January 1, 2011 when all other tax rates will revert to what they had been in the final years of President Bill Clinton’s administration. There is a silver lining in this postponement, since anything which is postponed may perhaps be repealed.
@ Mep
I agree…I just believe they have no other answers…I’ve been joking for a couple years that “America patiently awaits the next bubble, the only thing that can save the Nation” America is absolutely clueless about what to do next, how to regroup/remake its economic house and the parasite (FIRE economy) control is absolute just look at the recent Health Care debate

@chArles
Strip it down to the bare bones. There is a role for the State. The issue is who decides that role. I would contend that elites have control and have expanded the State and defacto their own power. Society should make that decision but they are incapable under this corrupted system of false choice. So, left or right statism grows until it collapses, unfortunately that’ll be very ugly.

@P/G. good article but he’s wrong about the can and aus dollars. quantitive easing has taken place everywhere to hide the dollar pound problem.
I don’t buy into the Left Right dichotomy…that there is a equal level of repulsiveness…one side wants to take your money and property by force to pay off the lower cast to prevent an open revolt….the other side wants to take your money and property by force to pay for prisons an sticks to beat the lower cast to stave off revolt
both sides are not morally equally there…to suggest there is is laughable
@Phil
Maybe this analogy works: Hyperinflation is like a fever. It risks the lives of the cells for the benefit of the body..Wiemar hyperinflation was a solution just like the current monetary policy is, at the expense of the people today. The alternative is amputation.
Like, Dudes, Dudettes-
You are missing a point… the more people there are in a country, the larger the government and amount of government rules. More population = more rules. The quaint notion of individual liberty only works when there are very few people around. The West has closed (circa 1905) and the last Earth frontiers have been conquered (or at least mapped by satellite).
Never in history has there been a empire that trod lightly upon its subjects. And the US is an empire, like it or not. It is also a failing empire. The left-right arguments are merely like rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic. The ship will go down anyway.
In the Big Picture, the health care bill is just for show. Within five years, the country will be so broke that it will cease to function. That is my prediction.

This volcano in Iceland may have a very serious impact..
Iceland volcano could have world consequences
1783 eruption changed weather patterns, sent poisoned air to British Isles
Iceland’s Laki volcano erupted in 1783, freeing gases that turned into smog. The smog floated across the Jet Stream, changing weather patterns. Many died from gas poisoning in the British Isles. Crop production fell in western Europe. Famine spread. Some even linked the eruption, which helped fuel famine, to the French Revolution. Painters in the 18th century illustrated fiery sunsets in their works.
The winter of 1784 was also one of the longest and coldest on record in North America. New England reported a record stretch of below-zero temperatures and New Jersey reported record snow accumulation. The Mississippi River also reportedly froze in New Orleans.

bernake is finally admitting to the fact that the entire global fiat/debt currency system is nothing more than a private bank run ponzi scheme,
having a system based on zero reserves is the definition of fraud, this rather stark admission should come as no suprise to this audience. Big ben has admitted he has a problem, and that he is powerless under the influence of free-money, will this lead him to seek help from a higher power, apparently he is in close contact with his sponser, goldman sachs.
@ norcalkid – The quaint notion of individual liberty only works when there are very few people around. The West has closed (circa 1905) and the last Earth frontiers have been conquered (or at least mapped by satellite).
Yep. That’s why “expanding the frontier” now means doing things like privatizing social security, privatizing wars, privatizing natural disaster relief efforts, “creating markets” in national security/surveillance, privatizing water and other resources, privatizing prisons and schools, forcing people to buy for-profit “health insurance,” etc. It will be interesting to see what happens globally when “frontier expansion” meets its natural end–either because there are no new frontiers left, or there is open revolt a la Max’s “global insurrection against corporate occupation.”

I’m here to keep my sanity…kids at home all week ’cause of spring break
The U.S. House of Representatives passed legislation known euphemistically as “health care reform”. They also passed a bill to increase the tax on investment income by 3.8% for those couples earning $250,000 or more per year, and to increase the tax on earned income by 0.45% (0.9% for self-employed individuals). While the tax increase is allegedly to pay for the health-care provisions, the reality is that it will not be targeted for that purpose, but will go into the general fund. Therefore, the 3.8% investment tax increase is really going to pay for the massive stimulus program, “cash for clunkers”, and similar clunky legislation that had no beneficial impact whatsoever except to increase the federal deficit. In the future, there could well be additional programs to bail out homeowners who bought houses they knew they couldn’t afford, to subsidize banks which should have been allowed to go bankrupt, and probably additional future stimulus plans and other wasteful government programs. It would not be surprising to see additional tax increases. Since it is politically much easier to raise taxes on investment than to impose gasoline or value-added consumption taxes, Congress and the President may well continue to behave in this manner especially if they believe it will not noticeably impact their chances of re-election.
@ WL
I will be as kind as I can here…STFU….I am sorry have little patience with HACK debating styles….do not throw Mao at an anarchist that is idiocy…Mao’s Cultural Revolution was an impotent man desperately trying to assert control over the political situation that was slipping from his grasp…it had NADA to do with anything resembling reforms my side of the argument purposed ever in history, Same with Stalin, Same with Lenin, Same with Hitler…grow up….to suggest this is just laughable and a cry of desperation

@Max
Hey, cool. Thanks for taking my question (@ 25:07). And though I think the intepretation was a little bizarre, I found Greg’s answer pretty interesting. He obviously is aware that some symptoms of inflation have begun to manifest in the US economy (enough if he still believes in the powers that be to manage the situation) But even this small recognition is a point that few other analysts are willing to admit or show awareness.
I personally think the sand is slowly slipping from Bernanke’s ever tightening grip.

If the word ‘enough’ was changed to ‘even’ my last statement might actually have made sense…
well actually I am still sick…some form of upper respiratory ailment just hope I have drugged myself free of bronchitis
as to shying away from debate..nope I’m Scot Irish there is only one thing we like to do more than to engage in a good fight
but if one side of the argument is to just yell obscenities (Mao is an obscenity) what is the come back?
to rationally point out that in actuality what Mao purposed during the cultural revolution had little to anything to do with maximizing equality or personal freedom but instead was just a power grab by an aging leader who believed he was being put out to pasture?
my comment concerned that Liberal democratic governments engage in confiscation of wealth and liberty in the pursuit of minimizing social instability by paying off the lower strata of the economic system…while conservative democratic governments engage in confiscation of wealth and liberty in order to increase the amount of control they have over the lower casts
now the debate is if I’m gonna be in a cage I take the one that is at least better maintained….so I stick to the point there is a difference…to argue otherwise is laziness…and to go nuclear with tossing out a man who is responsible fro 50+ million deaths is childish

@The Keiser Report – zero reserve system
Trying to get my head around this, reading reserve requirement on wiki and surprisingly discover that United Kingdom has zero reserve requirements but operates under voluntary reserve ratio system. Where it states that 12 years ago UK average cash reserve ratio were at 3.1%, that surly must have scrunched since then. The Eurozone has a Required reserve ratio of 2% (2003) – that is low. Is that really true?
I assume the banks stand to gain from a zero reserve system.

The inflation deflation debate is one which is difficult to assess. At a household level over the past 2 years we have seen prices of food and household necessities increase anything from 15 – 20%. In addition property tax rates have been rising. On the other hand property rentals, property prices, electronics, travel have seen declines which in some cases have been over 20%. People who own homes feel poorer because of deflation but pay more at the grocery store—feels like a double whammy to me

NEW YORK (AP) — Stocks have punched higher to extend their streak of gains after sales of existing homes fell less than expected.
The National Association of Realtors says Tuesday that sales of previously occupied homes fell 0.6 percent last month to an annual rate of 5.02 million. The drop wasn’t as steep as expected.
Analysts say many investors, after seeing the Dow Jones industrials rise 15 out of the past 18 days, are afraid of missing further gains.

Housing has rebounded to an all time high or close, listings are selling fast in my neighbouthood, the taxes, fees and utilities are creeping up. Condo projects that went dormant in 2008 are back up and going, it is game on. New autos were heavily discounted for a while, now less so. Food has been rising, timbits up 40% in two years among other staples.
No signs of general price deflation, cost of living is rising. All this with a rising Canadian Dollar, would have expected more “deflationary pressures”
@ ronron – here’s another goodie: 1st corporate campaign ads appear 1 week after Supreme Court’s Citizen’s United decision
The newspaper ads ran in Jacksonville and Tyler on the Sunday before the election and a week earlier in Panola, and they urged voters to choose anyone but Hopson. They were paid for by KDR Development Inc., a real estate company whose president, Republican Larry Durrett, lost to Hopson in 2006, when Hopson was still a Democrat. Durrett is also the president of Southern Multifoods, a Jacksonville-based company with dozens of franchised Taco Bell, KFC, Pizza Hut, A&W and Long John Silvers restaurants. The two companies are closely related, sharing addresses, officers and directors.

Rest of the clip pretty interesting especially with the falling magnet poles glued together opposite and vice versa. Donnow if this effect (falling faster or slower that earths pull on a object (9,8 ms2 acceleration per second) has to do with anti gravity or with the earth’s magnetic field?

Why can’t people reconcile deflation happening with inflation? Why is the single cause not completely obvious. I feel like I’m living on another planet probably inhabited with maybe a few thousand others who actually get it.
Money represents a claim on energy. Nothing more.
http://www.zerohedge.com/forum/what-money
How can inflation happen alongside deflation? Its simple, both cause the purchasing power of each monetary unit to fall and both stem from the one root cause. Damn, I feel like I’m living on another planet thats maybe inhabited by possibly a few thousand others who can see the blatantly obvious cause for why a nations energy consumption determines its currencies value. Money represents a claim on energy. F**king get a clue already.

yes, the cost of living is inflating, while the standard of living is deflating,

Thank you so much for talking about fractional reserve banking. People need to know about these things. I think most people would be overwhelmingly in favor of a full reserve banking system if they knew.
I was wondering if you guys could do some more shows about really the things that cause the fundamental problems with the economy and finance markets. What about the ratings agency cartel? How they have a legal monopoly? Maybe the history and present of the Fed? Maybe Keynesianism and how it doesn’t work?

Bear in mind that a change in the wind is occurring should the discount rate decline again. Possibly the new moves by the Fed reflect a necessary modification to allow first to stave off negative interest rates, and then clear a path should negative interest rate policy become necessary.
1.3 on the following chart really means .13%, which is half the policy rate.

Todays Telegraph runs some squib article about the latest threat to western society: exploding breasts.

They are however remaining silent on exploding penises or exploding assholes. This article probably says more about the telegraph editorial team’s relationship to their mothers than any threat to western civilisation (sic).

Obama is the perfect puppet for the Oligarchs because of the controversy surrounding the many alleged secrets he has to hide. Dangled from a string, and then the big pay off after the damage is done. Job done.
Whether or not the health care robbery survives legal challenges, I believe that the Oligarchs have pushed the country nearly to the breaking point, politically, economically and in spirit. It’s in chaos. Last night I was thinking about the military. How long will it be before food and pay is interrupted? This is the end game of all empires.
Meanwhile the bankers will continue their relentless robbery of the country, now unseen.
Prominent Democrat, activist, lawyer, staunch H.Clinton supporter during presidential campaign, former deputy attorney general of Pennsylvania, one-time Democrat candidate for Penn governor, one-time top Democrat op for Penn was one of the first (if not the first – as he had some very heavy-duty backers in the shadows promoting his work) to launch investigations into Barry Soetoro’s (a.k.a. Barack Obama) citizenship. Based on Berg’s findings, he was one of the first to file several legal challenges regarding candidate Obama’s eligibility. The goal was to “october-surprise” Obama and cause him lose the election -on behalf of Clintons (who foresaw that Obama would most likely remain POTUS for 2 terms – thereby most likely making chances for another team-Clinton White House win very difficult if not impossible until 2016 (by which time H.R. Clinton will likely not be able to continue 4-8 more years of political life).
Berg continues to pursue this matter and has a website detailing his ongoing activities regarding Obama’s citizenship and eligibility:

What percentage of Americans still believe there is any difference between a “democrat” and “republican” politician, still are entangled in the created, controlled and false “left” vs “right” dialectic paradigm (in other words -what % are still thoroughly duped and brainwashed fools).
I feel sorry for the Americans. First warred upon by their corporations, then foreign interests and now by their own government. Death by a thousand cuts, each cut slicing that little bit deeper.
Max for Greek president, why stop there Max for No:1 Supreme Leader, your my kind of meglomaniac.
Good story about Bernanke, wishing to eliminate Fed reserves, I’m sure it all makes sense in his head.
Interesting guest, but have I heard him correctly, the banks were worth bailing out, that going forward they’ll be profitable. If that is the case I think the question could have been asked ‘what fucking planet are you living on’. Hyper-inflation a mere tail wind… the smugness or the naivety, I’m not sure which I found the most amusing.
well, i’m not sure about the antichrist…

Max, if Krugman was manipulating the intrade healthcare contract, why did it go down?
More likely it was republicans/insurance companies not supporting the legislation who manipulated the market.
