Germany backs bailout of Greece: yields plummet on Greek & Club Med bonds, euro rallies; Merkel denies the report [UPDATED]

Posted on February 10, 2010 by stacyherbert| 179 Comments

Stacy Summary: Of course, all the hedge funds and Goldman Sachs’ of the world knew they could count on the German government ultimately capitulating and paying off these debts to them; I am sure they had fun playing yet another game of chicken. (@Phil/Germany and others from Germany, I’d like to know how this story has been playing out in your country; I believe the German population had to be promised that joining the euro would not leave them vulnerable to precisely this sort of event of bailing out other nations? Thanks for your opinion in comments). Merkel is denying the report, but it looks like the speculators have written the story for her.

Max Keiser blog: Germany bans Monsanto GM corn

Posted on April 14, 2009 by maxkeiser| 12 Comments

Headline: Germany bans cultivation of GM corn

My comments: Monsanto is as much of copyright abuser as Disney. Monsanto, as I’ve written many times before, uses abusive copyright and patent laws to monopolize seeds; introducing ‘terminator seeds’ that are eunuchs incapable of reproduction along with other equally destructive products. This means prices for food go up. Way up. Are they helping farmers and poor people? About as much as Visa and Master Card and predatory pay check lenders. Monsanto treats seeds like a currency that can be manipulated. Do you really want Monsanto and Goldman sachs running seed banks? The last time I wrote about Monsanto, their PR machine smeared me within 24 hours.. I’ll keep you posted.
