Is it another scam, fraud or ponzi scheme? Does it allow the International Financial Cartel to continue giving record bonuses? Could it be the engine of hyper-inflation? Should the debate be about the debt ceiling or should it be about how the American Taxpayer Majority (ATM) will finally pay down the national debt? Could raising the debt ceiling be called another form of taxation? Could raising the debt ceiling be another bail of the International Financial Cartel (IFC)? Can ATM assume that they do not have to pay back the new debts accrued when lifting the national debt ceiling? Will ATM unilaterally default on the national debt by not paying their income tax? If everyone over eighteen in US of A paid taxes would taxes collected be enough to pay down the national debt? &lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;Has the debate shifted from pulling the wool over the ATM’s eyes to the new height for a debt that can never be repaid? &lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;Does ATM finally realize this congressional debate is another false flag operation called “Debt Ceiling Debate”? Can the Federal Reserve continue to inflate its currency and expect ATM to make a choice between food, shelter and energy or paying their fair share of an increasing debt? Could Chairman Benjamin Bernanke be right when he said gold is not money? Does the constitution speak of a Federal Reserve Note or gold and silver?&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Should the Federal Reserve System dictate what money is? After the last depression $1600 would purchased 45 ounces of gold. If gold and silver is not money than does the constitution matter anymore? If the constitution does not matter anymore, do the executive, congressional and judicial branches matter? If the U S Constitution does not matter, do our brave men and women fighting foreign wars have a mission with national interest?

If the amount of dollars in circulation were tied to the quantity of gold at Fort Knox the facility would need a major expansion. Taxpayer may notice the price of food, gas, clothes, shoe and heating fuel skyrocketing as the value of the dollar purchases less. People may notice that a two-bit-ragtag insurgent in Afghanistan has tied up the greatest military power for over eight years. Taxpayers may realize that in 2008 U S of A witnessed the largest bank heist known. It was global in scope and the victimized taxpayer was left holding a bag of toxic assets.

ICC’s new world order has turned capitalism upside down. Profits and losses are irrelevant, accepted accounting procedures have been trashed and truth in lending no longer applies. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thousands of public workers in California, Illinois, Wisconsin and other states face adverse state budget cuts that will strip most public employees of nearly all of their collective negotiated gains. Do the governors of these states dare do the same to the pensions of law enforcement? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yes if they are going to rely on their national guards to protect their bacons. Could public and private IRA’s and 401 K’s be in site of the cross hair? Budget cuts by state governments are only the tip of the iceberg.  Stealthily moving through congress is a bill that will allow states to default and file for bankruptcy.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Currently state governments cannot seek protection under federal bankruptcy laws. Once states are able to go belly up an ICC negotiator will come in and offer government property at a discount to the very institutions receiving bailouts. These decisions are similar to medical decision implemented under the new Health Care law. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Home owners who were current on their mortgages should have been bailed out. International banks would have failed but home owners would realize trillions in home equity credit and simulated the economy. Instead The Taxpaying Majority (TTM) is bracing for QE 3 which will increase inflation around the world, continue to devalue all currencies. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Food, shelter, clothing and fuel will increase exponentially.  Who is going to bail out the bailers?  It’s the public employees; federal, state and local law enforcer including the taxpaying majority that guarantees the ICC bail out. What brought down the USSR were not a nuclear war but a sovereign bond debt crisis and an endless war in Afghanistan. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When it come to saving these TTM there is no one left. The game is up. TTM now owes and guarantees trillions of dollars to the very same ICC they saved from bankruptcy. What happened to the 1917 law which allows the federal government to confiscate the hoarding cash of the bailed out during a national emergency?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2335556695495333629-9057653932245632537?l=opineeconomics.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/feeds/9057653932245632537/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2011/02/bailing-out-bailers.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/9057653932245632537'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/9057653932245632537'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2011/02/bailing-out-bailers.html' title='Bailing Out Bailers'/><author><name>Sold Out Venues</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07560149681449739140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__f8gN0Y8Ocg/St_hE4LFwCI/AAAAAAAAAA8/c8T94CVVenA/S220/virtual+face.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2335556695495333629.post-4268916644745941990</id><published>2010-12-07T10:03:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2010-12-19T17:53:31.848-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Are You Serious?</title><content type='html'>Let’s see if I got this right? An international financial cartel (IFC) developed exotic financial instruments that are not examined, regulated nor understood by government authorities. IFC’s business model begins to implode because of a predictable design flaw. IFC agents in the executive, judicial and congressional branches of government go into action. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Their job is to convince the American taxpaying majority to accept liability for debt created by the IFC. First they create a story of how the global economy would have crashed in 2008 if they had not stopped a run on their banks. To date no one has been identified as the perpetrator of this run. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This bank run could be another J P Morgan fat finger script from the 1920’s. Next they threaten the taxpaying majority (TTM) with martial law if Americans did not guarantee a $23 trillion dollars plus largess. IFC cadres promise to repay TTM and turn the economy around. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;IFC talks about fighting deflation even as they orchestrate an economic downturn. After IFC receives $350 billion it decides to keep the money instead of making loans. A lack of lending only makes the economic environment worst. IFC concocts a new scheme. Remember IFC is broke and the sovereign debt crisis is their way of getting bailed-out. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;IFC an insolvent banking model that borrowed billions of dollars from TTM at 0.25% begins to purchase treasury securities while charging TTM interest at 3.25 %. How is this achieved? Through deficit spending.

Yet Ninja was only the fuse, the wick, the accelerant that started the fire. By acting as the igniter, Ninja has become the Osama Bin Laden of a global MBS industry. In 2005 the FBI raised concern about a massive mortgage fraud rolling down the housing industry path. &lt;br /&gt;Teaser loans, liar loans, interest only loans or no income loans became legitimate lending transaction. Trying to protect Banks form their lack of fiduciary duty and due diligence will not solve a global financial fraud. Does a house foreclosed because of a fraudulent default by Ninja qualify as a clear title instrument held as a bank asset? &lt;br /&gt;Does a bank have a right to sell a sliced and diced mortgage plus assign the new mortgage to another MBS? The great depression generation would say “You can’t have your cake and eat it too”. Bottom line is municipalities, pension fund and global investor were sold bonds that were created, designed and expected to implode.&lt;br /&gt;In fact the chumps, suckers and bamboozled are those that are being penalized for doing the right thing by paying their property taxes. &lt;br /&gt;Why would a lobbied, purchased and paid for congress encourage the housing industry a make loan to someone with no income, no job and no assets? The taxpaying majority (TTM) now realize the serious money is made when the mortgage is in default. &lt;br /&gt;This is why does TTM own AIG.  The big money is being made by those who took out insurance on an inevitable housing crash. Tranches were designed and sold according the length of time it would take Ninja to stop paying the mortgage. Is this another form of fraud, racketeering and theft?   It’s no different from a hot water heater that breaks down one month after it warranty expires.&lt;br /&gt;An appliance malfunction is scientifically and mathematically calculated base on stress, metal fatigue or chip design. Banks are foreclosing on properties that are underwater in value, marking them above market price and exchanging these toxic assets for treasuries. Qualified borrower might end purchasing property at inflated prices with a defected title. &lt;br /&gt;Investment banks, title companies, rating agencies and insurance companies may be liable for breach of warranty representation in an MBS pool but TTM will pay the bill. The MBS debt could be as high as $40 trillion. When it comes to congress doing the biding of it master both political parties have no hesitation. &lt;br /&gt;Congress passed legislation which grandfathers, circumvents and repeals title procedures regarding property. If a notary can sign and stamp a document before a borrower’s signature is penned on the agreement, notary guidelines been repealed. Does the current owner of a repossessed property continue paying down a mortgage on house where an illegal eviction took place?  &lt;br /&gt;Will banks once again become insolvent because MERS owes municipalities hundreds o f billions in deflating dollars. TTM have a clearer picture of a planned multi-decade scams that has left it holding a bag full of caca. The Federal Reserve chairman has not denied systematic weakness lead to improper foreclosures.&lt;br /&gt;In other words some repossessed homes are now occupied by borrowers who legally could be trespassing. When the chairman of the Federal Reserve takes violations of proper procedures seriously it is an admission to deficiencies within a global MBS market. What the chairman did not acknowledge was the currency plunge that took place on 10/22/2010, Friday evening after markets closed.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2335556695495333629-2667030120589072476?l=opineeconomics.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/feeds/2667030120589072476/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2010/10/ninja-and-derivative.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/2667030120589072476'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/2667030120589072476'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2010/10/ninja-and-derivative.html' title='Ninja and derivatives'/><author><name>Sold Out Venues</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07560149681449739140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__f8gN0Y8Ocg/St_hE4LFwCI/AAAAAAAAAA8/c8T94CVVenA/S220/virtual+face.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2335556695495333629.post-3635280785816843185</id><published>2010-10-18T17:05:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-10-18T17:05:09.430-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Rocks and Hard Places</title><content type='html'>The Taxpaying Majority (TTM) has not forgotten about those toxic assets the “To Big To Fail” exchanged for treasury instruments. Those toxic assets such as MBS, CDO, CDS and other forms of derivative were said to be worth pennies on the dollar and backed by the housing market. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Remember pennies are those ancient, barbaric relics that cost more to produce then what they are able to purchase. What can TTM buy with a penny, nothing? Toxic Assets (underwater homes mortgages) were swapped for the full faith and credit of the US Government instruments. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It was the sub-prime implosion that initiated the current financial crisis.  Now that banks are assuming title to their toxic assets, will they be able to meet requirements set by Basel 3? Can municipalities expect property tax payments from TBTF? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If a private banking institution forecloses on a property will congress stop looking further into the racketeering, scams and fraud? It was not only banks that are party to a flawed document process. How can banks proceed with foreclosures when others involved in the document process may have committed fraud?  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Flawed documents were submitted by rating agencies, realtors, mortgage brokers, lawyers, appraisers and other involved in the process. TTM has not forgotten about the traunches. Where a mortgage was chopped into piece, each piece was repackaged into a separate pool and sold as AAA paper. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Which part of the mortgage that was sold to the Fannie and Freddie does the bank own? Does the central bank FRS also need to get these toxic assets of it books in order to comply with Basel 3? Then there is Ninja with no income, no job, no assets or address. Check with FBI field agents who raised a red flag back in 2005.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is only through a conquered, captured and controlled government such a massive treasury heist continues to take place. TTM realizes that all three branches of government have abandon their fiduciary duty and capitulated, compromised and cede to an International Financial Cartel (IFC).&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2335556695495333629-3635280785816843185?l=opineeconomics.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/feeds/3635280785816843185/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2010/10/rocks-and-hard-places.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/3635280785816843185'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/3635280785816843185'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2010/10/rocks-and-hard-places.html' title='Rocks and Hard Places'/><author><name>Sold Out Venues</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07560149681449739140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__f8gN0Y8Ocg/St_hE4LFwCI/AAAAAAAAAA8/c8T94CVVenA/S220/virtual+face.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2335556695495333629.post-8427747507354848879</id><published>2010-10-10T10:49:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-10-10T10:49:11.874-07:00</updated><title type='text'>The Greatest Threat</title><content type='html'>US military might is watched globally with shock and awe.

God bless the US bravest and finest for their sacrifices. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Al Qaeda, Taliban, Terrorism or Islamic extremist have no military equivalent to US weaponry. So what is the DDW supporting a ragtag battlefield opponent? Who is the power behind terrorism? Who is laundering money for the enemy? How is the enemy able to keep the deception, distraction and delusion going? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; First they must capture, control and compromise western governments into doing their bid.  Western Governments that have been infiltrated by treasonous, unpatriotic agents involved in a global ponzi scheme. This is probably how an International Financial Cartel (IFC) reinvented the ultimate weapon that has bought down many western powers. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The IFC profits from the illusion of fiat deficit spending and perpetuates the myth of the necessity of all forms of income tax confiscation. Dropping fiat currencies from black helicopter (QE2) is not the same as the taxpaying majority (TTM) depositing money into banks that make loans to entrepreneurs. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Deficit spending is proving to be the Greatest Threat and ultimate DDW to the U S of A, the taxpaying majority and its military service personnel&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2335556695495333629-8427747507354848879?l=opineeconomics.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/feeds/8427747507354848879/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2010/10/greatest-threat.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/8427747507354848879'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/8427747507354848879'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2010/10/greatest-threat.html' title='The Greatest Threat'/><author><name>Sold Out Venues</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07560149681449739140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__f8gN0Y8Ocg/St_hE4LFwCI/AAAAAAAAAA8/c8T94CVVenA/S220/virtual+face.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2335556695495333629.post-8503571665033603964</id><published>2010-09-18T17:56:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-09-18T17:56:06.406-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Deflation Begets Hyperinflation</title><content type='html'>The taxpaying majority (TTM) are about to experience the endgame of a deflationary fiat currency. In the future a shopping cart of fiat dollars used to purchase a grocery bag of food is not only deflationary but exemplifies hyperinflation. TTM may ask how a thousand fold increases in the amount of dollars needed to make such a purchase be deflationary and hyper inflationary. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Because TTM’s currency is tied to lobbying and purchasing a capitulated, captured and controlled government it is easy to become conned by this deflationary sleight of hand. TTM must remember that the purchasing power of their currency is being exterminated with extreme prejudice every time government deficit spends, prints dollars and abuses its credit line beyond what is needed to continue governance. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Deficit printing and borrowing dollars only acerbates and delays a day of reckoning when hyperinflation will come roaring to life.  As the purchasing power of the dollar deflates prices will have to decrease to fight of hyperinflation. One way of keeping prices down is by lying off more employees. At the same time the equities stock market experiences inflation by computerized front running deep pool HFT as synthetic profits yield obscene commissions and bonuses in a 21% unemployment environment. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TTM is no longer able to borrow a half a million dollars to purchase a price depreciating, deflating housing asset through undisciplined, unregulated and abusive debt financing because of a collapsing credit market. Therefore the price of housing will continue to fall until an acceptable universal accounting, rating and leveraging system is reestablished. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Meanwhile inside the Euro zone Greek interest rates inflate as global investors prepare to pour monies into a illusionary secure deflating interest rate in US Treasuries. The bottom of a deflating credit market must include an unwinding of a $1.5 quadrillion derivatives market.  The credit market collapse continues to fuel the current deflationary recession.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; As banks hoard monies acquired through a false flag financial operation they prohibit the expansion of credit which is one essential ingredient required to inflate the economy out of the current recession.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2335556695495333629-8503571665033603964?l=opineeconomics.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/feeds/8503571665033603964/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2010/09/deflation-begets-hyperinflation.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/8503571665033603964'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/8503571665033603964'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2010/09/deflation-begets-hyperinflation.html' title='Deflation Begets Hyperinflation'/><author><name>Sold Out Venues</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07560149681449739140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__f8gN0Y8Ocg/St_hE4LFwCI/AAAAAAAAAA8/c8T94CVVenA/S220/virtual+face.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2335556695495333629.post-587480691272539931</id><published>2010-09-13T17:16:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-09-13T17:16:40.866-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Can The Fed meet Basel benchmarks?</title><content type='html'>The Taxpaying Majority has not read the two thousand plus page financial reform bill that was recently passed by a congress that also didn’t read the bill.

Based on the Fed’s balance sheet can it meet capital requirements set under Basel 3? Can the Fed successfully lobby the Senate and President to translate into law and regulation requirements set under the Basel 3 rules? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Will passage of Basel 3 financial requirements prevent another trillion-dollar financial stimulus package as due date approach? Can the Federal Reserve System (FRS) meet a minimum common equity requirement of 4.5% plus a capital conservation buffer of 2.5%? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How much in dollars is 10% of Fed total capital?

A beautiful angel was cast out of Heaven because she betrayed God. According to the Garden of Eden story the Serpent betrayed Eve and Eve betrayed Adam. Treason has never been a positive act. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Treason has never been subject to the authority of any political philosophy, government or body of laws. The US Constitution can only highlight the negativity of treason. Treason and the consequence of being found guilty of the act have survived the rise and fall of many nations. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The US congress has tried to repealed Treason by changing laws, ignoring others laws, to outright redefining an Act of Treason. Congress currently indulges in these acts in order to accumulating a debased currency that is slowly becoming worthless. The taxpaying majority (TTM) has accepted the fact that congress can be bought. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Recent history has shown that people can lie to congress, government agencies and expect no retribution for the act of lying. Is it treasonous to inflate the bond market through deficit spending? If the US Bond market should collapse could United States of America continue to wage war in Iran, Yemen or Pakistan? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;An international financial cartel (IFC), which is America’s number one enemy is well aware of this Achilles’ heel.

The Federal Reserve note is not created out of thin air, electronically or by a printing press it is debt. It is no longer backed by the full faith and credit of the US government as its credit rating spirals down the food chain. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Government’s inability to rein in spending, Afghanistan war, Iraq govern less, North Korea aggression and lost of AAA rating is self evident.The taxpaying majority live in a physical conscious realm although there other dimension in flux. It is commonly exposed that the dollar is a fiat currency back by nothing. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The dollar decoupled from a Brettonwood gold system which was the nail in the coffin for the victor’s agreement. The dollar also decouples from its petrol agreement when Saddam Hussein and other States accepts payments in other currency.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If the Chinese’s demand gold for payment of treasury redemption the taxpaying majority (TTM) will find itself back at the precipice. The irony of the situation is the dollar is now backed by debt as United States escalates its position as the largest debtor. Yet the very same debt is also the demise of the dollars hegemony.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The strength of the dollar is its ability by government to produce quantities through deficit spending. It is alleged that every citizen of U S of A owes somewhere in the neighborhood of $100,000 on a growing national debt. The national debt is in reality an uncollected tax. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The tax with interest growing exponentially by the second will double in shorter increments even if the FRS does not QE 2. An exponentially expending tax will take less time to double as long as there is an increasing outstanding balance. Deficit spending could not, is not and will not stop the national debt from doubling. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It has become a scam, a ponzi scheme and a rip off.  The Federal Reserve System has to pursue, promote and prolong government debt financing in order to stable its business model and make an obscene pornographic profit (OPP). &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A controlled Congress must perpetuate spending more dollars then it is taking in through all forms of taxes. How does a bankrupt, bailed-out and broken banking system earn trillions of dollars which it loans to an unwilling taxpaying majority? Should the federal government create money it cannot repay? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Understand the FRS is a private international financial cartel (IFC) with ownership from around the globe. How this private IFC is able to amass trillions in OPP. Money is not produced out of thin air. This concept is the stuff of fairy tales, magic and an illusion. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Every dollar that is created by deficit spending is an uncollected tax that must be paid in full by TTM. Someday TTM will pull back the curtain after withdrawing from its debt addiction. TTM will find that the IFC was, is and will continue to be the ultimate tax collector. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Deficit spending is a mechanism used to purchase power by controlling government. The end game could be the impoverishment of TTM, the collapse of the dollar and the demise of the shining city on the hill.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2335556695495333629-8108295117516056192?l=opineeconomics.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/feeds/8108295117516056192/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2010/08/dollar-backed-by-debt.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/8108295117516056192'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/8108295117516056192'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2010/08/dollar-backed-by-debt.html' title='Dollar backed by Debt'/><author><name>Sold Out Venues</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07560149681449739140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__f8gN0Y8Ocg/St_hE4LFwCI/AAAAAAAAAA8/c8T94CVVenA/S220/virtual+face.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2335556695495333629.post-7708052733630042951</id><published>2010-08-08T14:31:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-08-08T14:33:54.577-07:00</updated><title type='text'>We are there</title><content type='html'>Social Security benefits will exceed revenues in 2010.

The answer is 450,000,000 gallons. Yes, oil dissolves in water naturally over time. Question is how time is “naturally over time”. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If 152 million gallons is three-quarters where is the 53 million gallons of oil?

In the meantime access cash is being used to prop a synthetic stock market, which is churning volume through HFT.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Both political parties are participating in this treasonous, obscene fraud, which incrementally dissolves the constitution, US sovernity and purchasing power of the US dollar. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When the federal government barrows more money then it needs to cover deficit spending, it exposes the folly, pillage, plunder and obscenity of federal, state and local income taxes. Congress could borrow for example $3 quadrillion dollars from the foreign owners of the Federal Reserve System. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Congress could pay off the US national debt, and balances the global derivatives market. This action would be inflationary and deflationary at an accelerated pace instead of the boiling frog method currently utilized. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If all those that hold US government debt conducted a run on treasuries at fire sale prices global printing presses do not have the capacity to produce enough $100 bills to satisfy demand. Maybe oil interest is buying US treasuries out of London similar to how they bought gold around $800 per ounce before it crashed to $260.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2335556695495333629-3415504205472103124?l=opineeconomics.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/feeds/3415504205472103124/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2010/08/why-are-ttm-paying-taxes.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/3415504205472103124'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/3415504205472103124'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2010/08/why-are-ttm-paying-taxes.html' title='Why are TTM paying taxes?'/><author><name>Sold Out Venues</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07560149681449739140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__f8gN0Y8Ocg/St_hE4LFwCI/AAAAAAAAAA8/c8T94CVVenA/S220/virtual+face.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2335556695495333629.post-2289702903803952879</id><published>2010-07-27T18:52:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-07-27T18:52:33.270-07:00</updated><title type='text'>GDP breaks Taxpayers</title><content type='html'>Deficit spending is a clear sign the taxpaying majority (TTM) is up side down when it come to national fiscal prudence.

After two year of negotiations, posturing and smoke filled back rooms TTM is handed financial legislation that has accomplished, restored and protected nothing. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TTM is still caught up in the same decaying financial predicament, precipice and paradigm it found itself in during September 2008. In 2008 there was no Iceland, Ireland, Latvia, Greek sovereign debt crises. The global derivatives market was less then $650 trillion dollars. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A $23 trillion taxpayer commitment was supposed to solve a global financial pandemic. Yet, the stock market is still eroding quantitatively. TTM is clear as to who has their finger on the trigger that could implode the US and Global economy. With China in that position TTM should ask those running for congress in November, how did we get here? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Was it a treacherous, treasonous, terrorist plot implemented by congress’s new masters? Well, here is the subliminal messages congress sent TTM. Congress has abandoned their fiduciary duty to protect, preserve and promote the US constitution. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Congress has embraced a new master an international financial cartel (IFC) and no longer serves its constituents. Congress has sold out the country with an inflating, debasing, deflationary fiat currency. Judgment day is coming when congress can no longer pretend they did not know. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Even though congress continues to slowly boil TTM like a frog, the collapse of the U S of A will not be considered an accident? A clear sign of an eminent collapse would be when congress and their new masters IFC go silent after slipping into their secret survival bunkers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.opineeconomics.blogspot.com&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2335556695495333629-2925349256031373575?l=opineeconomics.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/feeds/2925349256031373575/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2010/06/what-are-we-doing-here.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/2925349256031373575'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/2925349256031373575'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2010/06/what-are-we-doing-here.html' title='What are we doing here?'/><author><name>Sold Out Venues</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07560149681449739140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__f8gN0Y8Ocg/St_hE4LFwCI/AAAAAAAAAA8/c8T94CVVenA/S220/virtual+face.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2335556695495333629.post-2717694939606710245</id><published>2010-06-28T17:16:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-06-28T17:16:28.212-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Abiotic Oil Wars</title><content type='html'>Truths rising from below the Gulf floor in the form of toxic gases has the potential to destroy life in and above water. BP has tapped into a mother lode of abiotic oil, which is being manufactured naturally through an automatic cycle. This volatile eruption of deadly gasses should have a sobering effect on the oil wars being fought in the Middle East.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; If the concept of Abiotic Oil is accurate there is no need to send our bravest and finest into harms way to guarantee the free flow of oil. Abiotic Oil like “Peak Oil” highlights the rate of consumption at which humans are depleting our natural resources. The volume of oil coming out of the floor at best is steady. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pressure has not dropped since April. BP has tapped into more oil then US of A will ever use. General McCrystal’s staff is probably also aware of the massive reserves of oil within the territories of US of A. Congress would rather taxpayers pay more at the pump then tap into domestic reserves. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is only through high gas prices that federal, state and local governments can collect more tax revenue to compensate for a debased currency. This gulf event maybe yet another false flag attempt to break the back of America in terms of logistics, defense and tactics. Using oil booms is not thinking out side of the box. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bails of hay will absorb oil and so will human hair. If depleted oil wells are beginning to refill with oil then Peak Oil is not a major concern. What is surprising is no one has the stones to force a bailed-out   International Financial Cartel into releasing suppressed technology that could end this catastrophe. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;United States should seriously consider allowing the Russian’s to set of a precise nuclear devise based on their experience and expertise. History has documented nuclear fallout from a failed Russian reactor in the milk of cows in Wisconsin USA. Why, because all water, air and lands are connected. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A methane explosion in the Gulf of Mexico will affect multiple nations. While each high tide bring in another layer of oil that will preserve some of the vegetation it cover for hundreds of years.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2335556695495333629-2717694939606710245?l=opineeconomics.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/feeds/2717694939606710245/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2010/06/abiotic-oil-wars.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/2717694939606710245'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/2717694939606710245'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2010/06/abiotic-oil-wars.html' title='Abiotic Oil Wars'/><author><name>Sold Out Venues</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07560149681449739140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__f8gN0Y8Ocg/St_hE4LFwCI/AAAAAAAAAA8/c8T94CVVenA/S220/virtual+face.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2335556695495333629.post-4238513763366094319</id><published>2010-05-25T17:12:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2010-05-25T17:12:37.968-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Trading with their own currency</title><content type='html'>Alexander the Great knew the power behind Greece’s only nemesis was a massive reserve of gold. Exactly where this fortune was stored and taking the booty was Alexander’s only obstacle. Alexander unified the Greeks by vilifying their common enemy who just happened to pocess the middle world’s largest known cache of gold. An obvious Condon drum was the Greek emissaries and advisors caught inside enemy camps after each victory. In addition to engaging elite Greek forces on the battlefield Alexander pursued his goal of financial independence of Greek largess. Once Alexander secured his sought after fortune he no longer needed the support of the Greek states. Alexander’s military might was no longer Greek on his last birthday. Like Alexander the great an International Financial Cartel (IFC) the “to big to fail” has coined their own currency. Through modern technology the IFC commandeered the derivatives market, captured the treasuries of taxpayers around the globe and attacked NATO allies through naked shorts CDS. The income is unregulated, not reported, and tax-free. Since the “ fat finger accident “ every major market index has revisited the bottom of the May 6 plunge. As long as the boiling taxpayer does not jump out of the tax system IFC will continue to confiscate revenue feeding politicians appetite for deficit spending.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2335556695495333629-4238513763366094319?l=opineeconomics.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/feeds/4238513763366094319/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2010/05/trading-with-their-own-currency.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/4238513763366094319'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/4238513763366094319'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2010/05/trading-with-their-own-currency.html' title='Trading with their own currency'/><author><name>Sold Out Venues</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07560149681449739140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__f8gN0Y8Ocg/St_hE4LFwCI/AAAAAAAAAA8/c8T94CVVenA/S220/virtual+face.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2335556695495333629.post-406557816913836546</id><published>2010-05-24T17:17:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2010-05-24T17:17:19.380-07:00</updated><title type='text'>How could they have known?</title><content type='html'>It is hard to discover answers to a criminal cyber invent when investigators are surfing porn sites.

A sound banking system, which enables small borrowers to finance business ventures, creates jobs and provides consumer loans. Government saved TTM from working jobs out sourced to foreign countries and in factories moved off shore.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Government saved TTM from a strong currency, a housing price steadily increasing, a global financial melt down and a flawed health care system. Government saved the American citizen from walking through airports not searched, not photographed or monitored. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Government saved TTM from irresponsible lending and borrowing practices by banks. &lt;br /&gt;Government saved TTM from paying down the national debt, as well as personal and private financial obligations. Government saved TTM from spending a strong currency at home and abroad, to purchasing affordable food, gas and electricity. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Government has saved TTM from the low cost of a decent education. Government saved TTM from toxic assets weighing down financial institutions and threatening the world economy. Government saved TTM from the like of Iceland, Greece, Portugal and a dozen other nations. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Government saved TTM from economic financial collapse, more stimulus package, excessive money printing, to big to fail, escalating interest payment on national debt, hyperinflation and excess liquidity.

Lone wolf terrorist attack on Muslims, Jews and Christians highlights government’s inability to guarantee freedom of religion.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Government’s use of appropriate force to save the lives of patriots fighting in a Middle East theater deteriorates daily. Government has failed to regulate the value of currency by spending money from future taxes. Government devalues the dollar by decreasing its buying power when spent in supermarkets, gas stations and shopping centers. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Who will congress punish when the currency becomes as worthless as counterfeit notes.

It’s the only game in town. A floating dollar has morphed into an international confidence scheme. The entire globe has been bamboozled into a giant DCT game of musical chair. Last entity standing will end up holding a majority of worthless US toxic debt. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It looks like the winner will be the taxpaying majority (TTM) in U S of A. Sad part about this matter is TTM was not invited to participate in the game. Fed remains the only major player left enabling a congressional addiction to debt. Chinese are bailing because there is no assurance congress will control debt. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Congress barrows money from Fed then Fed turns around and purchases congressional induced debt. It’s the ying and yang of a perpetual cycle of indenture servitude, economic feudalism and financial slavery. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;An international financial cartel (IFC) needs to swap up to $1.5 Quadrillion of fraudulent induced derivatives for legitimate official paper such as US treasuries. Raising the debt ceiling, continuous deficit spending and abandoning the value of the dollar goes a long way in fostering the swap. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Preserving a fiat currency system that is backed by confidence in a superior military and the huge economy of a nation in debt is the path of lease resistance. TTM have accepted the fact Wall Street is the epic center of a financial earthquake with aftershocks and tremors yet to be felt. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is not surprising to find a common IFC connection between Spain, Portugal, Iceland, Greece, UK and other collapsing nations. Why do these three words Fraud, IFC and Government appear as triplets whenever derivatives are involved?

The taxpaying majority (TTM) through officials in congress has leveraged the US dollar 14 to 1 because of the national debt. This does not include the derivatives market, which may have leveraged the dollar as high as1500 to 1. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Private debt may have leveraged the dollar at a guesstimate of 60 to 1. To what level will the Fed raise interest rate in order to drain the global financial system of excess dollar reserves? The financial crisis of 2008 highlighted a massive shortage of dollars, which forced TTM to leverage currency up to 23 to 1. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This run on the dollar should have triggered a sharp rise in US interest rates. Alternatively the dollar was devalued through printing extraordinary sums of cash. Holders of the US dollar paper are potentially facing a tax by inflation that could render notes worthless. The Fed is caught in a catch 22 as it fills the gap left by foreign investors. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Being the major purchaser and possibly holder of US treasuries the Fed faces its own inflation tax. Speculating the Federal Reserve System may be using an unofficial inflation tax by devaluing the dollar. Monetary easing could be another means of draining the dark pool of debt. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TTM are bankrolling the banking system by accumulating debt while paying the banks interest on treasuries as well as money barrowed to bailout a global financial system.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please make a Donation here&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post"&gt;&lt;input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_s-xclick"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;input type="hidden" name="hosted_button_id" value="8913286"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;input type="image" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/btn_donateCC_LG.gif" border="0" name="submit" alt="PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online!"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/scr/pixel.gif" width="1" height="1"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/form&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thank you&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2335556695495333629-857367075550291267?l=opineeconomics.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/feeds/857367075550291267/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2010/02/fed-buying-debt.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/857367075550291267'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/857367075550291267'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2010/02/fed-buying-debt.html' title='The Fed buying Debt'/><author><name>Sold Out Venues</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07560149681449739140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__f8gN0Y8Ocg/St_hE4LFwCI/AAAAAAAAAA8/c8T94CVVenA/S220/virtual+face.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2335556695495333629.post-3113249915017951195</id><published>2010-02-07T20:00:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-02-07T20:00:53.221-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Looking in the Mirror</title><content type='html'>Should the taxpaying majority (TTM) accept international financial cartel (IFC) propaganda or should TTM believe its lying eyes?

Can international bankers prevent a new round of financial collapse by nations or will all global currencies reset at parity? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Does the physical quantity of silver match the paper traded on commodity exchanges or is the price caught in a deflationary manipulation?

Safe guards, barriers and rules which protected, promoted and provided a common defense against economic turmoil and financial meltdown were consciously dissolved and dismantled. These rules helped guide and direct the nation out of a great depression. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Weak and fluffed legislation continues to be substituted instead of meaningful corrective measures. A $1.5 quadrillion global derivative markets which is 80% fraudulently induced has yet been recognized, re-worked or resolved. Thousands of financiers have not been investigated, indicted or jailed for bribery, fraudulent inducement or treason. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Treason against the U.S. of A. should also consist of levying economic and financial war against the nation. Treason should also include assisting domestic and foreign enemies who infiltrate, disrupt and disable the national economy, financial infrastructure and federal government. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Treason should consist of giving aid and comfort to private cabalist enterprises which push the country to the brink of economic failure and financial collapse. How can congress address the issue of treason when it is deeply involved in the planning, execution and cover-up? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fraudulent inducement should encompass lying to a bribed and captured congress. In return congress assured the taxpaying majority the financial crisis of 2008 was not a domestic attack on the U.S. of A. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bribery should consist of accepting millions of dollars which allows non elected lobbyist the opportunity to write legislation and finance the election of Manchurian candidates to congress. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Treason should consist of entering into service of the federal government with the intent of inducing the taxpaying majority into financing actions which are harmful to the States.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please make a Donation here&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post"&gt;&lt;input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_s-xclick"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;input type="hidden" name="hosted_button_id" value="8913286"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;input type="image" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/btn_donateCC_LG.gif" border="0" name="submit" alt="PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online!"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/scr/pixel.gif" width="1" height="1"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/form&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thank you&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2335556695495333629-8493231122523660523?l=opineeconomics.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/feeds/8493231122523660523/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2010/02/treason-against-states.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/8493231122523660523'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/8493231122523660523'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2010/02/treason-against-states.html' title='Treason against the States'/><author><name>Sold Out Venues</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07560149681449739140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__f8gN0Y8Ocg/St_hE4LFwCI/AAAAAAAAAA8/c8T94CVVenA/S220/virtual+face.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2335556695495333629.post-4060967428591026531</id><published>2010-01-02T10:09:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-01-02T10:12:56.823-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Corruption is Repetitive, Addictive and Habitual</title><content type='html'>Taxpayers have welcomed the beginning of the second decade of the twenty-first century with an ancient, barbaric immoral pandemic infesting the federal government. It appears corruption has become a systemic, endemic ritualistic way of life that permeates local, state and federal government. &lt;br /&gt;Taxpayers should not judge reps by the image they project but by the contents of their works. Laws, rules and regulations were enacted to arrest this practice, yet corruption reigns supreme in Washington DC. The environment on Capitol Hill is giddy with excitement and expectation of bribes to come in 2010.&lt;br /&gt;Its possible elected official cannot enter the inner sanctums of power unless they part-take of the corruption ritual. Taxpayers should expect government officials to find a way to embrace the addiction as the New Year begins. The habit has become the accepted works of the same Wall Street Gods of deception, greed and fraud.  &lt;br /&gt;Those that have mastered the art of robbing countries will return in 2010 like patty thieves to the scene of a successful heist. Taxpayers should expect constants raids on tax revenues because addictive politicians are hooked on the cracks in bogus legislation. &lt;br /&gt;Elected officials have no problem spending other people’s money to feed their habit. The addiction to deficit spending metamorphoses into a repetitive rise in taxes to pay for raising the debt ceiling. Corruption has rotted the head of government to the point where trade wars during a recession seem logical.&lt;br /&gt;Political corruption increasing exponentially will distract, disable and disrupt a nation from capturing the financiers of financial terrorism.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please make a Donation here&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post"&gt;&lt;input name="cmd" type="hidden" value="_s-xclick" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;input name="hosted_button_id" type="hidden" value="8913286" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;input alt="PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online!" border="0" name="submit" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/btn_donateCC_LG.gif" type="image" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" height="1" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/scr/pixel.gif" width="1" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/form&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thank you&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2335556695495333629-4060967428591026531?l=opineeconomics.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/feeds/4060967428591026531/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2010/01/corruption-is-repetitive-addictive-and.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/4060967428591026531'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/4060967428591026531'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2010/01/corruption-is-repetitive-addictive-and.html' title='Corruption is Repetitive, Addictive and Habitual'/><author><name>Sold Out Venues</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07560149681449739140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__f8gN0Y8Ocg/St_hE4LFwCI/AAAAAAAAAA8/c8T94CVVenA/S220/virtual+face.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2335556695495333629.post-5406862952171609294</id><published>2009-12-29T21:46:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-12-29T21:46:09.801-08:00</updated><title type='text'>The beast SEG</title><content type='html'>A mysterious, magical and mesmerizing beast has paralyzed the federal government. This financial beast Seg spreads its venom through confiscated largess of taxpayer’s bailout. Its lobbyist have invaded, captured and flipped government officials working on Capitol Hill. Seg appears in different forms according to the perception of each elected official.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Many see a black swan; some see an elephant and other see a gorilla. No one in government will agree as to what they are observing. They all however agree it is huge, harmful and a havoc. Seg is the $600 trillion plus and growing derivative industry. Its epic center can be found on Wall Street.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Those that created the beast were sure they had invented a formula that eliminated risk and guan teed eternal profitability. Today the creators have abandon the concept and gone into retirement or are crying fraud with 80% of the derivatives industry. Taxpayers are experiencing the results of a financial neutron implosion detonated by Seg.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Taxpayers have survived the blast but their finances are rapidly disintegrating. Government will not create a framework which will regulate an expanding industry which is about to release carbon credit default swaps. CDO derivatives have been dressed up by PhD’s of mathematic from prestigious institution of higher learning.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Promoted by the “to big to fail” on Wall Street. Next derivatives were pedaled around the world by guru within financial institution. Elected representative deny that derivatives have become another illegal street craps shoot. If there is fraud there is unpaid taxes owed to tax collection agencies. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Unpaid taxes on 80% of $600 trillion plus will pay of the national debt. Taxpayers have finally realized the root of the financial crises, are government guanteed bailout. Increasing taxpayer’s debt through deficit spending has become habitual, addictive and repetitive. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Until capitalist principles are restored the capitalist system will continue to deteriorate. The supply of money will increase exponentially as purchasing power of the dollar will deflate in an inflationary economy. This maybe why an ancient, barbaric, relic as gold appreciates in an atmosphere of lack of confidence, trust and faith in government?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please make a Donation here&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post"&gt;&lt;input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_s-xclick"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;input type="hidden" name="hosted_button_id" value="8913286"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;input type="image" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/btn_donateCC_LG.gif" border="0" name="submit" alt="PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online!"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/scr/pixel.gif" width="1" height="1"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/form&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thank you&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2335556695495333629-5406862952171609294?l=opineeconomics.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/feeds/5406862952171609294/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2009/12/beast-seg.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/5406862952171609294'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/5406862952171609294'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2009/12/beast-seg.html' title='The beast SEG'/><author><name>Sold Out Venues</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07560149681449739140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__f8gN0Y8Ocg/St_hE4LFwCI/AAAAAAAAAA8/c8T94CVVenA/S220/virtual+face.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2335556695495333629.post-3328137519344158783</id><published>2009-12-09T22:41:00.003-08:00</published><updated>2009-12-09T22:41:56.430-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Doing Gog’s work</title><content type='html'>&lt;meta content="text/html; charset=utf-8" http-equiv="Content-Type"&gt;&lt;/meta&gt;&lt;meta content="Word.Document" name="ProgId"&gt;&lt;/meta&gt;&lt;meta content="Microsoft Word 10" name="Generator"&gt;&lt;/meta&gt;&lt;meta content="Microsoft Word 10" name="Originator"&gt;&lt;/meta&gt;&lt;link href="file:///C:%5CDOCUME%7E1%5CFoster%5CLOCALS%7E1%5CTemp%5Cmsohtml1%5C01%5Cclip_filelist.xml" rel="File-List"&gt;&lt;/link&gt;&lt;o:smarttagtype name="Street" namespaceuri="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags"&gt;&lt;/o:smarttagtype&gt;&lt;o:smarttagtype name="address" namespaceuri="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags"&gt;&lt;/o:smarttagtype&gt;&lt;o:smarttagtype name="country-region" namespaceuri="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags"&gt;&lt;/o:smarttagtype&gt;&lt;o:smarttagtype name="place" namespaceuri="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags"&gt;&lt;/o:smarttagtype&gt;&lt;style&gt;&lt;!-- /* Style Definitions */ p.MsoNormal, li.MsoNormal, div.MsoNormal	{mso-style-parent:"";	margin:0in;	margin-bottom:.0001pt;	mso-pagination:widow-orphan;	font-size:12.0pt;	font-family:"Times New Roman";	mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";}@page Section1	{size:8.5in 11.0in;	margin:1.0in 1.25in 1.0in 1.25in;	mso-header-margin:.5in;	mso-footer-margin:.5in;	mso-paper-source:0;}div.Section1	{page:Section1;}--&gt;&lt;/style&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;The International Financial Cartel has decided to milk a male horse by inferring they are “Doing God’s Work”.

Conformation illustrates another example of a non violent capture of the US Government. Taxpayers are constantly told that the bailout saved the world from another Great Depression.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Truth told the bailout only covered the losses of speculator who were caught exposed to global defaults. Confidence was disabled, disrupted and destroyed when counterparties involved in a counterfeit shadow monetary system stopped payments. Taxpayers were convinced by government to fall on the debt sword and save a global financial system.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This mantra will persist at a lowering volume until the last financial institution is out of the TARP system. Fed, SEC, CFTC and other agencies failed to perform their fiduciary duty. A failure to monitor the capitalization requirements of financial institutions under agency jurisdiction also provided cover to justify a bailout &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It was default of debt that caused the current recession. As long as the powers that be ignore defaulting debt this recession will get worse. There are defaults coming from the top of Wall Street to the bottom of Main Street. These defaults are the moral hazard of fraud and complacency. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Taxpayers have been exposed to an unsustainable repayment structure.  A retailer and staff abandoned a liquor store which is opposite a senior high school. All doors were unlocked and left wide open.

Taxpayers may have over medicated into a legal comatose state of mind with residue now detected in the sewer, water and air. Fed’s exit strategy is similar to Alice trapped in wonderland. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As long as taxpayer Alice is experiencing a hallucinary global financial crisis time is running out on defusing the mother of all hyperinflationary explosions. A Hyperinflation explosion will probably crush the dollar making Weimar Republic and Zimbabwe seem like the pageantry of the King of Heart’s court. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The banking industry continues to deflate through conscript consolidation by forcing good banks to cover the losses of bad banks. FDIC has access to $500 billion of taxpayer’s debt to cover $4.5 trillion in taxpayer’s deposits. A watch list of 500 banks and $8.5 billion in the red FDIC is requesting good banks to cough up $23 billion.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Alice was extricated from the wonderland system by falling into a bottomless hole. When will US taxpayers wake up to the Fed’s newest wonderland scheme called “Reverse Repo”? Fed has pumped trillions of borrowed dollars into the banking system. Congress continues to lead taxpayers deeper into debt with interest bequeath to the FRS.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Congress was told that a $700 billion bailout would be used by banks to unfreeze an illiquid system. Banks have no intention on injecting liquidity into the economy because it would only bring about hyperinflation. The problem is excess credit produced outside of the FRS by a $600 trillion plus fraudulent, unregulated derivatives industry.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How does FRS drain the global economy of excess derivative dollars before they are released into a global economy thereby producing hyperinflation? Fed has allowed a recession to establish roots and swapped toxic assets at inflated prices for taxpayer debt. The Fed in return repurchases taxpayers debt from primary bank dealers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fed will now reverse repo the very same taxpayer debt recently purchased by primary bank dealers for cash raised through leveraged taxpayer debt to third parties. The deeper Alice the taxpayer ventures into financial wonderland the more “curiouser and curiouser” the Fed becomes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fed will conduct another reverse repo in the future and buy back taxpayer debt at an even higher price. This will create more excess liquidity then before and shorten the time for a hyperinflationary explosion. At this point taxpayers will have slipped deeper into a wonderland of financial debt.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fed will once again rearrange the chairs around a circular table. Banks will end up with larger excess reserves in the system. Fed will have taxpayer debt on its balance sheet. Fed will claim should banks start lending excess reserves into the economy hyperinflation will surge. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Any exit strategy by the Fed represents a change in policy and should be interpreted as a sign the situation has changed on the ground. Eventually a door will lead back to a hallway of financial crisis with many doors. The key is to find the door that allows taxpayers to break perpetual deficit spending.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please make a Donation here&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post"&gt;&lt;input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_s-xclick"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;input type="hidden" name="hosted_button_id" value="8913286"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;input type="image" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/btn_donateCC_LG.gif" border="0" name="submit" alt="PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online!"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/scr/pixel.gif" width="1" height="1"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/form&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thank you&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2335556695495333629-8079216560924503190?l=opineeconomics.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/feeds/8079216560924503190/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2009/12/high-of-pharmaceuticals-in-financial.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/8079216560924503190'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/8079216560924503190'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2009/12/high-of-pharmaceuticals-in-financial.html' title='High of pharmaceuticals in financial wonderland'/><author><name>Sold Out Venues</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07560149681449739140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__f8gN0Y8Ocg/St_hE4LFwCI/AAAAAAAAAA8/c8T94CVVenA/S220/virtual+face.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2335556695495333629.post-8301654687755292846</id><published>2009-11-27T09:03:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-11-27T09:04:29.891-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Deficit spending is fraudulent inducement</title><content type='html'>&lt;meta equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"&gt;&lt;meta name="ProgId" content="Word.Document"&gt;&lt;meta name="Generator" content="Microsoft Word 10"&gt;&lt;meta name="Originator" content="Microsoft Word 10"&gt;&lt;link rel="File-List" href="file:///C:%5CDOCUME%7E1%5CFoster%5CLOCALS%7E1%5CTemp%5Cmsohtml1%5C03%5Cclip_filelist.xml"&gt;&lt;o:smarttagtype namespaceuri="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" name="country-region"&gt;&lt;/o:smarttagtype&gt;&lt;o:smarttagtype namespaceuri="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" name="place"&gt;&lt;/o:smarttagtype&gt;&lt;!--[if gte mso 9]&gt;&lt;xml&gt;  &lt;w:worddocument&gt;   &lt;w:view&gt;Normal&lt;/w:View&gt;   &lt;w:zoom&gt;0&lt;/w:Zoom&gt;   &lt;w:compatibility&gt;    &lt;w:breakwrappedtables/&gt;    &lt;w:snaptogridincell/&gt;    &lt;w:wraptextwithpunct/&gt;    &lt;w:useasianbreakrules/&gt;   &lt;/w:Compatibility&gt;   &lt;w:browserlevel&gt;MicrosoftInternetExplorer4&lt;/w:BrowserLevel&gt;  &lt;/w:WordDocument&gt; &lt;/xml&gt;&lt;![endif]--&gt;&lt;!--[if !mso]&gt;&lt;object classid="clsid:38481807-CA0E-42D2-BF39-B33AF135CC4D" id="ieooui"&gt;&lt;/object&gt; &lt;style&gt; st1\:*{behavior:url(#ieooui) } &lt;/style&gt; &lt;![endif]--&gt;&lt;style&gt; &lt;!--  /* Style Definitions */  p.MsoNormal, li.MsoNormal, div.MsoNormal 	{mso-style-parent:""; 	margin:0in; 	margin-bottom:.0001pt; 	mso-pagination:widow-orphan; 	font-size:12.0pt; 	font-family:"Times New Roman"; 	mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";} @page Section1 	{size:8.5in 11.0in; 	margin:1.0in 1.25in 1.0in 1.25in; 	mso-header-margin:.5in; 	mso-footer-margin:.5in; 	mso-paper-source:0;} div.Section1 	{page:Section1;} --&gt; &lt;/style&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;Every time congress submits a budget that requires deficit spending government commits fraudulent inducement.

International financial creditors might in turn forgive the &lt;st1:country-region&gt;&lt;st1:place&gt;US&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt; of some debt. Deficit spending is equivalent to a thief threatening to rob the US Treasury if taxpayers do not hand over $700 billion. Blackmail is a covert form of fraudulent inducement. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Deficit spending also transfers money to financial institution in the form of interest payments on funds loaned to government. Government in return pumps this money into schemes such as bailout, stimulus, cash for clunker and TARP. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;The most insidious form of financial indentured servitude is exponential growth in interest payments on an inflating national debt. The US Treasury and the Federal Reserve System may have lost control of money creation because of an unchecked derivatives industry. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Over $600 trillion in derivative transactions has dwarf the total monetary worth of the entire globe. The central bank system possibly allowed the extension of too much credit into a global carry trade currency. Barrowing money and swapping currencies for dollars at zero percent interest rates is shoring up an inflationary foundation.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;As of 2008 the entire global central bank system held less than $1.2 trillion in gold reserves. Global central bank system does not have enough gold reserve to unwind a growing $12 trillion US national debt. Central banks are purchasing gold which is appreciating in value at exponential rates.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Central banks have reverted to net buyers of gold as price escalates towards the stratosphere thereby creating a self perpetuating increase in cost. An inflationary cycle by carry trade dollars buying less gold at higher prices has begun.&lt;span style=""&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;Price will also increase partly because of a drop in production and a limit on sources for retail consumption.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Would the total collapse of the US dollar bring the price of gold back from the stratosphere? If the dollar is no longer the carry trade currency how high will interest rate rises. What will American use as a form of currency, the AMERO?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2335556695495333629-8301654687755292846?l=opineeconomics.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/feeds/8301654687755292846/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2009/11/deficit-spending-is-fraudulent.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/8301654687755292846'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/8301654687755292846'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2009/11/deficit-spending-is-fraudulent.html' title='Deficit spending is fraudulent inducement'/><author><name>Sold Out Venues</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07560149681449739140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__f8gN0Y8Ocg/St_hE4LFwCI/AAAAAAAAAA8/c8T94CVVenA/S220/virtual+face.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2335556695495333629.post-6641676451911315933</id><published>2009-11-23T08:46:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-11-23T08:49:58.234-08:00</updated><title type='text'>It’s not about the bling bling.</title><content type='html'>Why is an ounce of gold more valuable then a barrel of oil? Although gold’s density is unique, its value per ounce is less then platinum. An ounce of tungsten plated with 24K gold is a painful rip from the upper hip. There maybe tones of tungsten inside Fort Knox, Fed vaults or central bank storage disguised as pure gold.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Will congress enact the authority to audit the Fed’s gold reserve in New York? Whose gold was found underneath the rubble at ground zero? Oil is the energy that runs a global economy. Gold has technological and industrial applications but energy from oils is needed to bring those applications on line.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Gold does not dominate the global manufacturing economy where as production will grind to a holt with out oil. There are other efficient substitutes that can replace most gold application. Gold is a symbol of confidence, security and wealth. It is the global currency of last resort. Gold knows no political, religious or economical boundaries.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Gold has been manipulated by governments but never eliminated from currency. It has past peak even though swap has been created based on future production. Could there be a shortage of gold? Have promises been made that cannot be? With gold linked to the derivatives market price may spike to inconceivable heights.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A possible audit of gold reserve may reveal secret with global implications. The strength of gold exposes the weakness of a carry trade dollar. Central banks have lost the authority and ability to suppress gold resilience and price. Government can only play a catch-up game when it comes to creating paper currency.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If government were a private corporation it would have filed for bankruptcy. Credit creation is another form of increasing money supply coming prior to the government’s printing press. A $600 trillion plus derivatives market is proof point how money is created through the extension of credit into the private sector.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Stimulus and bailout has justified the extension of credit from the FRS to the US government when covering the losses of a private banking system. An undisciplined, unregulated and unmonitored financial sector expanded the money supply beyond global GDP thereby devaluing all world currencies. Hence the exponential rise of gold.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Government is not able to stop an accelerating money supply unless counterparties are willing to take a hair cut.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Donate here please&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_s-xclick"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;input type="hidden" name="hosted_button_id" value="8913286"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;input type="image" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/btn_donateCC_LG.gif" border="0" name="submit" alt="PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online!"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/scr/pixel.gif" width="1" height="1"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/form&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thank you&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2335556695495333629-6641676451911315933?l=opineeconomics.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/feeds/6641676451911315933/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2009/11/its-not-about-bling-bling.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/6641676451911315933'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/6641676451911315933'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2009/11/its-not-about-bling-bling.html' title='It’s not about the bling bling.'/><author><name>Sold Out Venues</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07560149681449739140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__f8gN0Y8Ocg/St_hE4LFwCI/AAAAAAAAAA8/c8T94CVVenA/S220/virtual+face.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2335556695495333629.post-871957033170499224</id><published>2009-11-21T20:49:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-11-21T20:52:48.016-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Mystical Currency</title><content type='html'>U S of A is already in the midst of hyperinflation. Based on the traditional definition of inflation, an exponential spike up in the supply of money back in September 2008, is a great example of hyperinflation. Any more bailouts or stimulus continue to add to money supply and devalue global fiat currencies.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Total amount of currency circulating the globe is around $65 trillion. How could the current notational value of derivatives around the world exceed $600 trillion? There is either a shadow currency in use or ninety percent of derivatives are the product of fraudulent inducement.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A $600 trillion plus derivative market exposes a massive shortage of carry trade dollars. Taxpayers are being bombarded with propaganda which denies what they see, hear and smell. A hyperinflationary virus has already spread globally. Central banks and sovereign nations are dumping their dollars for gold.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;National currencies are being debased and taxed by a weak carry trade US currency. This is another reason why central banks have reverted to net buyers of gold. Gold has an inverse effect when fiat currency goes rouge on stable economies. U S of A maybe broke and bankrupt.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Federal Reserve System continues to loan the federal government more money. This money ends up in the tax haven coffers of corporations that pay no taxes on offshore gains. Treasuries sold increase the amount of dollars in circulation because they are issued to cover debt.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The 2010 election cycle maybe a pivotal point regarding the sovereignty of U S of A. A path at the proverbial fork in the road will be determined by taxpaying voters. Taxpayers are at the precipice of losing their country. Taxpayers realize they are in the midst of an economic war.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Only by throwing the incumbents out of office and recapturing government will the nation be saved from disintegration. A patriotic congress person will understand that taxpayers must perform a radical, delicate and dangerous surgery of removing the cancer from congress.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are good congress people that are leading the charge but they are out numbered. Now is the time to be bold, innovated, creative and unpredictable. Government is also caught up in this deadly economic war. Trillion dollar financial bombs are exploding all over the country. Taxpayers are short of supplies, man power, money and access.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A defeat will reduce the U S of A to a divided third world nation. Now is the time to be bold, courageous and forge a new paradigm when voting in 2010.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Donate here please&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;input name="cmd" value="_s-xclick" type="hidden"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;input name="hosted_button_id" value="8913286" type="hidden"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;input src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/btn_donateCC_LG.gif" name="submit" alt="PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online!" border="0" type="image"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img alt="" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/scr/pixel.gif" width="1" border="0" height="1" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/form&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thank you&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2335556695495333629-871957033170499224?l=opineeconomics.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/feeds/871957033170499224/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2009/11/mystical-currency.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/871957033170499224'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/871957033170499224'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2009/11/mystical-currency.html' title='Mystical Currency'/><author><name>Sold Out Venues</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07560149681449739140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__f8gN0Y8Ocg/St_hE4LFwCI/AAAAAAAAAA8/c8T94CVVenA/S220/virtual+face.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2335556695495333629.post-2343797071954663043</id><published>2009-11-16T06:46:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-11-16T06:48:47.646-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Taxpayers got punked</title><content type='html'>US taxpayers have been punked. Taxpayers assume elected official will use the constitution as a guide when deliberating national business. The constitution is being dismantled, disabled, and disrupted. The dollar, personal savings and national economy are also being destroyed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Congress plunged taxpayers into debt by $2.5 trillion to protect a private banking system. Taxpayers were denied an audit of the Federal Reserve System they protected from plunging into the abyss. Bankrupt banks exchanged toxic paper for treasuries which the Fed purchased from taxpayers after granting government a loan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The loan in turn increases national debt to the Fed through deficit spending. Fed buys back access treasuries from primary dealer banks that are unable to sell treasuries in global markets. Taxpayers get punked owing the Fed additional money with interest for treasuries repurchased from primary dealer recipients of taxpayer’s bailout.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Paying the Fed principle and interest for treasuries issued to protect and preserve the banking reserve system through deficit spending is maximum ponzi. Taxpayers have been punked into believing printing US dollars can continue forever. At some point purchasing power of all fiat currencies peaks and becomes worthless.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It’s no mystery why the US stock market continues to rise in the midst of a global recession. A weak dollar carry trade invested in foreign markets creates the illusion domestic banking industry has recovered.

An unofficial international currency has no alliance to any nation, political philosophy or economic system. Gold as a storage of wealth had no significant application in economy until the industrial revolution.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Gold has always been currency of last resort. Fiat and debased currencies have vanished when decoupled from gold by undisciplined governments. Gold is sought out during inflationary and deflationary environments. Government cannot create or print gold so it must accept currency pegged to a value of commodity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Increasing price and shortage of gold highlights weakness in fiat currency buying power and value. Gold has peaked. This does not to imply there is no more gold to find, mine and produce. Peak gold serves notice of decline in amount, production and supply of gold.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Decline illustrates diminishing quality of ore grade, deeper depth to mining shafts and an increasing cost of energy. Demands on supply of gold from population will also push price to higher levels. Ore grade has declined from 12 grams per tonne in 1970 to 3 grams from leading producing countries.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Central banks and international monetary institutions acted as quasi mine producers when gold was coupled to paper money. Recently China and India became net buyers. Industrialized countries with detached currencies from gold still have huge reserves.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Natural minerals or resources on Earth do not replenish at the pace of consumption by an expanding population. Global gold production declining at 1% per year will hit zero long before everyone alive today expires. This does not take into account demand from ETF’s,&lt;br /&gt;to population growth. Could gold drop to zero in monetary value?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yes if replaced by another commodity other then fiat currency as history has proven. Replacement commodity would still experience an increase in value as quality and quantity diminishes. One reason price of quality diamonds remain high is because of control. Control of gold at the mine level only elevates price of commodity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Will the price of gold rise for ever. No, not even a super currency can defy gravity. Production cost under a global cap and trade will influence price to the up side. Potential productive mines will be discovered in developed, underdeveloped and emerging market nations. Political stability, infrastructure and labor will influence production and price.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Economic turmoil in developed countries encourage hoarding of gold there by pushing price upward. As income level around the world approach discretionary access gold price will exponentially accelerate to the up side. Miners will dig deeper as price rise and so will raw materials, production and labor cost.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why do human continuously return to this ancient relic currency? It grows out of a basic lack of confidence in monetary authorities. When government and central banks exhibit financial discipline, trust is regained from the populous. Citizen will return to a well regulated, monitored and restrained currency bringing price of Gold to acceptable levels.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Donate here please&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;form method="post" action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;input value="_s-xclick" type="hidden" name="cmd"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;input value="8913286" type="hidden" name="hosted_button_id"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;input border="0" alt="PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online!" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/btn_donateCC_LG.gif" type="image" name="submit"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img border="0" alt="" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/scr/pixel.gif" width="1" height="1" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/form&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thank you&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2335556695495333629-2804699723614742546?l=opineeconomics.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/feeds/2804699723614742546/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2009/11/gold-gone-rouge.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/2804699723614742546'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/2804699723614742546'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2009/11/gold-gone-rouge.html' title='Gold gone rouge'/><author><name>Sold Out Venues</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07560149681449739140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__f8gN0Y8Ocg/St_hE4LFwCI/AAAAAAAAAA8/c8T94CVVenA/S220/virtual+face.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2335556695495333629.post-4264938942225541691</id><published>2009-11-13T07:18:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-11-13T07:22:13.516-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Rouge Financial Jihadists</title><content type='html'>It’s like a neighborhood dog gone rabid.

Employees of IFC are paid more for racketeering, bait and switch, embezzlement and deception. The fix is in when law enforcer repeat the same mistakes involving criminal prosecution surrounding financial crisis.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bear Stearns was part of a global ponzi scheme. Government demonstrated it is not willing to water board those who financially threaten taxpayers of current US military operations.

Financial institution continue to hoard billions of dollars instead of making qualified loans&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Inaction by the Administration, Congress and FRS has given the green light to fast trading, primary dealer treasury buyers and shadow exchanges. Inactivation of regulatory and monitoring agencies may slowly deep six the dollar, rule of law and maybe the constitution.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Government’s constitutional mandate to protect, preserve and promote the national interest of the U S of A is inert. It was the IFC that conducted a run on institutional money market funds. Allowing a rouge IFC to capture the national banking system, surrender the capital and robbed the treasury demonstrates the fallacy of government being “to big to fail”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Taxpayers have experienced an exponential explosion of M3 money supply. This is a classic case of “out of site out of mind”. With more than a conservative $600 trillion unwound derivative market drowning the global economy, a massive supply of dollars are needed to resolve the currency shortage.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Where will this type of money come from? The burden will ultimately rest on the backs of the US taxpayers. How will government justify plunging taxpayers deeper into debt through deficit spending? Possibly another financial crisis caused by a “to big to fail” institution like BOA. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;BOA could end up receiving trillions of dollars in toxic assets rendering it insolvent. Solvency of another failed bank, maybe BOA, will force smaller solvent regional and local banks to finance winding down a bailed out institution. Unable to finance the unwinding of a mega bank, smaller banks might end under the control of bailed out institution.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;FRS should finance dissolving private member banks when insolvency becomes an issue not government or taxpayers. Potentially bankrupt FRS may not have the financial resources to intervene when member banks become insolvent. Leading the next bailout charge on Capital Hill FRS, Treasury and FDIC will exploit congress’s ineptitude.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another forced rescue plan with very few strings attached is in the making. Immediately FRS will begin printing trillions of debauched promissory notes at an unknown interest rate. Monetary easement by FRS will cover the auction of treasuries authorized by government.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A continuous devaluation of dollars will enable repayment of foreign creditor at discount prices. Instead foreign creditors have decided to revert to a partial gold standard as a hedge against a debauched dollar carry trade. At zero percent interest rate, a borrowed dollar carry trade is being used to profit from the spread between foreign bond rates.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;India’s 200 ton purchase of gold pushed price up to $1100. Under normal circumstances an increase in the supply of gold should pull price down. There could be a shortage of gold in storage preventing a decline in price. US stock exchanges appreciated since March 2009 despite millions of job losses.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Who is investing in these markets? It’s the taxpayer’s increasing debt that is propping up markets through deficit spending, bailouts and stimulus.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Donate here please&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_s-xclick"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;input type="hidden" name="hosted_button_id" value="8913286"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;input type="image" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/btn_donateCC_LG.gif" border="0" name="submit" alt="PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online!"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/scr/pixel.gif" width="1" height="1"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/form&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thank you&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2335556695495333629-1660272049298865762?l=opineeconomics.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/feeds/1660272049298865762/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2009/11/dollar-shortage-alleviated-by-deficit.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/1660272049298865762'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/1660272049298865762'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2009/11/dollar-shortage-alleviated-by-deficit.html' title='Dollar shortage alleviated by deficit spending'/><author><name>Sold Out Venues</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07560149681449739140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__f8gN0Y8Ocg/St_hE4LFwCI/AAAAAAAAAA8/c8T94CVVenA/S220/virtual+face.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2335556695495333629.post-2315085320341683813</id><published>2009-11-04T22:27:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-11-04T22:28:02.064-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Tweaking Confidence</title><content type='html'>Rockets bursting in air mark another celebration for the close of a two year recession. Third quarter GDP of 2009 hitting 3.5 % indicates government logically will pass a second stimulus bill. Stimulus and bailout will lead as policy through the present economic recovery. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Without government fixing root causes of current turn down. Taxpayers must focus on the collapse of the next growing bubble. Bubble contenders are commercial real estate (CRE) and the mother of all safe havens, the go to of last resort, US Treasuries. Federal government continues to enforce a policy of committing taxpayers to private liabilities.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Perpetuating a cycle of endless spending, taxpayer’s participation in purchasing treasuries to finance deficit spending is no longer required, as the value of surplus dollars deteriorate. Central banks systems were filling the gap by purchasing treasuries, possibly slicing them into traunches, repackaging and marketing them as triple AAA paper.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Collateral swaps of toxic assets may be used to borrow money to purchase securities. Taxpayers observed a drop in the Dow Jones of about 250 points on the news of 2009 Q3 GDP. America is stuck between a rock and a hard place because it is the only country that cannot purchase gold using US dollars.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Any market decline exposes dissipating confidence, declining trust in numbers and dependence on government injections. A jobless recovery will be the norm for government policy and those that no longer have a job may apply for unemployment extension. Will nine percent unemployment become the new normal as full employment?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Somewhere within a dark pool larks a $600 trillion plus derivative market. What volume of money supply is needed to resolve counterparties claims? A shortage of US dollars can only be reverse by increasing supply of money in circulation. Resolution must unwind and flush out financial systems before true economic recovery earnestly begins. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Government lacks grasp, control and motivation to tackle CRE loan workouts. The national psychosis of increasing the national debt through deficit spending in order to grow the economy, which expands money supply, may lead to deflating values of CRE. CRE are picked up by financial institutions that receive taxpayer assurances of loses.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Assurances are guaranteed when price falls below purchase price. Assurances are also financed by stimulus and bailout monies marked to grow the economy. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;  Donate here please&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_s-xclick"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;input type="hidden" name="hosted_button_id" value="8913286"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;input type="image" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/btn_donateCC_LG.gif" border="0" name="submit" alt="PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online!"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/scr/pixel.gif" width="1" height="1"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/form&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thank you&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2335556695495333629-2315085320341683813?l=opineeconomics.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/feeds/2315085320341683813/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2009/11/tweaking-confidence.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/2315085320341683813'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/2315085320341683813'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2009/11/tweaking-confidence.html' title='Tweaking Confidence'/><author><name>Sold Out Venues</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07560149681449739140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__f8gN0Y8Ocg/St_hE4LFwCI/AAAAAAAAAA8/c8T94CVVenA/S220/virtual+face.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2335556695495333629.post-7399603241756967426</id><published>2009-11-03T14:58:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-11-03T15:00:07.490-08:00</updated><title type='text'>America's Financial War</title><content type='html'>America's Financial War&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Americans taxpayers are in the midst of a financial war.

It no longer processes the skill or fiduciary duty to manage and protect the nation’s wealth. Instead government is fixated on expending the money supply to new and greater volumes. Congress has been seduced by its ability to finance any impulse that gratifies their delusion of self importance.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Recent events of bailing out bankrupt corporations have proven at best congress members have no idea who pushing their buttons. Congress has corrupted their office given to them by taxpaying constituents. They have squandered the honor and respect due the national legislative body. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Congress is no longer on, or has forgotten and redirected the mission of conducting the peoples business. Congress has failed at keeping America safe, strong and prosperous. The ambitions and desires of congress no longer reflect the goals and aspirations of the taxpaying electorate. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Government has decided to lead the nation down a path that will accelerate destruction of process, dissention amongst electorate and deterioration of congressional authority. Taxpayers have reached a point where reliance on right action from government has proven futile and unwise. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Taxpayers must send those in Washington DC a clear, definite and finale message. Any congressional member who continues to vote for deficit spending need not run for reelection. Expansion of the money supply continues to deteriorate the purchasing power of taxpayer’s income.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; History has documented the results of debauch national currencies. Government has created a new accolade while managing the increase and demise of a fiat dollar. It has authorized the printing of more fiat money the world has ever known. Problem with congress is its inability to kick its addiction to deficit spending. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Government psychosis of expanding the money supply and expecting a different result loops back to the only resolve of removing reps from office. Congress is failing as directors on the board of America Inc. Government has disregarded constitutional principles, abandoned capitalist rules and promote a hybrid economy. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The world is littered with examples of nations that overextended themselves. Congress pretends it has designed an innovated solution to managing government. Government repeats the same scripts and runs identical plays all other government must run when spending fiat currency. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Taxpayers are not confused by complexities with rules of order. The smoke screen mantra “the solutions are not that simple” hides graft, incompetence and treason. Taxpayers are marching on Washington DC demanding a return to fiscal discipline and responsibility. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why would an international financial cartel (IFC), which calculated failure at financial prudence offer guidance and solutions to a crisis orchestrated by their agents inside the Federal Government. IFC lobbyist block resolutions, write bills containing thousands of pages and hides key legislation which enables their cause. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lobbyist from IFC offers contributions and promises of employment through loopholes passed by congress. Taxpayers must lead a mission back from financial ruin towards balanced budgets by electing fiscally patriotic representatives. If Q3 GDP was so great why did Dow Jones tank by over 250 points.

Consumer spending will always stimulate growth. Somehow consumers were not invited to the economic recovery party. Consumer are not spending because banks are not lending their bailout and stimulus monies. This money is being used to prop up banks balance sheets. Consumer confidence has not returned to a point where taxpayers are comfortable about their financial future. Plus there is no equity left in their homes that can be used to burrow money. Institutions that supply credit cards have jacked up interest rates. It is the tax paying consumer who is the engine to any economic recovery. Yet consumer credit is spiraling down into negative territory.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now here is where real magic is performed. Taxpayers through the magic of Federal Reserve and Federal Government have become the growth engine of last resort. Government is barrowing money from the Fed. Federal Reserve is buying debt from the government. Neither institution has the reserves, capital or collateral to make such loans but by the income taxes of taxpayers. The Fed simply performs an accounting trick and loans money that it does not have. Paper stenciled Federal Reserve Note rolls of the printing press. In other words they promise to give the taxpayer more paper promissory notes when taxpayers try to collect a dollar&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now is the time for taxpayers to liberate their captured Federal Government from psychological shackles of an International Financial Cartel (IFC). Taxpayers must sacrifice their congressional representatives for the preservation of the political structure of the country. It is time to throw all captured incumbent politician out of congress. Congress has become infected with a corrupting virus. Taxpayers do not have an antidote or vaccine to immunized members of congress from this contagious pandemic. The only cure is an emergency quarantine of all political representatives. This is done by voting the infected out of political office.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Loaning into existence must exercise fiduciary guide lines, rules and barriers. Taxpayers must prevent congress from spending quadrillions of dollars trying to jump start the economy. Compounding interest on a growing debt will eventually lead to a quadrillion dollar debt. Exponential growth of the supply of money will debauch all fiat currency. Debauch US dollars is one reason why nations talk of a new global currency. By the way, stacking $23 trillion dollars on top of each other will reach a height of around 1,380 miles into space.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When the Federal Reserve loans money into existence it should only accept physical assets such as commodities as collateral in exchange for credit. Accepting toxic assets which are over valued, fraudulent and non existent in exchange for treasuries only promotes the ponzie scheme.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Legislation has been dismantled, reversed and repelled by orders given to a captured federal government. These political prisoners of the financial crisis are at the mercy of the IFC. Regulated and monitored institutions should not be allowed to utilize non-approved alternative trading systems. Passing laws are useless if enforcement of rules is prohibited. Unless there are investigations, hefty fines and jail time for those who violate the rule of law, it is a useless act of hyperbole.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please give what you can.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thank You&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;form method="post" action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;input value="_s-xclick" type="hidden" name="cmd"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;input value="8913286" type="hidden" name="hosted_button_id"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;input border="0" alt="PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online!" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/btn_donateCC_LG.gif" type="image" name="submit"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img border="0" alt="" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/scr/pixel.gif" width="1" height="1" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/form&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2335556695495333629-4335106859427743655?l=opineeconomics.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/feeds/4335106859427743655/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2009/10/magic-of-loaning-into-existence.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/4335106859427743655'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/4335106859427743655'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2009/10/magic-of-loaning-into-existence.html' title='The magic of loaning into existence'/><author><name>Sold Out Venues</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07560149681449739140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__f8gN0Y8Ocg/St_hE4LFwCI/AAAAAAAAAA8/c8T94CVVenA/S220/virtual+face.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2335556695495333629.post-4591086322052303102</id><published>2009-10-28T21:36:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-10-28T21:42:09.349-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Monetary Supply on financial steroid</title><content type='html'>It is observed the minute a baseball player takes steroids his body mass and stats begin to blowup. The same is true for all athletes no matter what the sport. The issue is how officials keep up with an ever expanding supply of new products constantly introduced to sport figures.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It maybe time taxpayers took the red pill. The Federal Government and the Federal Reserve System have screwed up the monetary system. The screw up is not by accident. It is not the first time this dynamic duo has bought the US taxpayers to the brink of monetary disaster. Once again the dynamic duo has squandered their fiduciary duty in protecting the value of the national currency. As long as an unregulated, uncontrolled central bank prints the nation’s currency taxpayers will accumulate imposed debt.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These raiders of the money supply are easing taxpayers, who have saved for retirement, into a life of indentured servitude and poverty. Debauch of fiat currency is hundreds of years old and was elevated to a true global level when the US dollar was taken of the gold system. At that moment all fiat currencies were put on financial steroids.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What has happened to US M3 money supply in general and paper currency in particular is a modern day wonder of the world. Forty eight trillion dollars circulating the globe is inflationary because oil is oil and an orange is still an orange. Electronically adding zeros to the money supply which is stimulated by the deficit spending inflates the supply of money and deflates the value of currency at the same time. In other words it takes more savings to purchase property because the value of saving has depreciated.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Taxpayers are now born with an $180,000 debt. This debt has the ultimate steroid attached to it in the form of interest compounding at varying rates. As long as congress continues deficit spending the national debt escalates. Whether treasury pays zero percent interest taxpayers are obligated to repay the FRS which creates more money because of deficit spending by the Federal Government.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Central bank systems create money by loaning it into existence which has produced global GDP around $60 trillion dollars. Where did 90% of the credit used to consummate $666 trillion in fraudulent derivative transactions come from? Who else has been loaning money illegally into existence?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Taxpayers will pay down the national debt by allowing congress to increase debt which only raises the national debt.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please give what you can.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thank You&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_s-xclick"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;input type="hidden" name="hosted_button_id" value="8913286"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;input type="image" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/btn_donateCC_LG.gif" border="0" name="submit" alt="PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online!"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/scr/pixel.gif" width="1" height="1"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/form&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2335556695495333629-4591086322052303102?l=opineeconomics.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/feeds/4591086322052303102/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2009/10/monetary-supply-on-financial-steroid.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/4591086322052303102'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/4591086322052303102'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2009/10/monetary-supply-on-financial-steroid.html' title='Monetary Supply on financial steroid'/><author><name>Sold Out Venues</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07560149681449739140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__f8gN0Y8Ocg/St_hE4LFwCI/AAAAAAAAAA8/c8T94CVVenA/S220/virtual+face.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2335556695495333629.post-7058088887415869818</id><published>2009-10-25T18:30:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-10-25T18:33:17.414-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Exploding implosion of dollars</title><content type='html'>Exploding implosion of dollars&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;During 1970 there was about $50 billion in circulation. It took only 37 years to create an additional $700 billion dollars. Roughly between 2005 to 2007 another $50 billion was added to the money supply. As of January 2007 around $750 billion dollars was floating around the globe in one form or the other.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At this rate, a day is coming when the Congress and Federal Reserve System (FRS) might pump $50 billion dollars a day into the economy. There is a powerful reason why the FRS stopped publishing the M3 component of the money supply. It may have something to do with institutional money market mutual funds and the derivative market. When M2 hits ten trillion dollars the FRS might stop making this information public.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Growth of the American dollars in circulation has exploded at an exponential rate. The combination of national debt, deficit spending, stimulus and bailouts are contributing factors. What finite debt number which is so large, payoff becomes useless and impossible? At zero percent interest, safe haven treasuries may be savaged by the inflation rate. Printing more promissory notes deflates the value of dollars already in flow.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Creating dollars via computer program that electronically adds zeros to exploding deficit spending is also inflationary. Taxpayers are caught between the two headed inflation deflation dollar. When the amount of dollars is greater then the total amount of foreign currency held by the rest of the globe, what will happen? How high will interest rates climb to ward off hyperinflation?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Has the taxpayer reached the point where the quantity of debt in global circulation can no longer sustain the purchasing power of U S dollars? What of the estimated $666 trillion derivative market which are ninety percent fraud, larceny, embezzlement and racketeering? How could there be an industry ten times GDP of all global economies trading on legitimate exchanges? The derivative industry epic center is the United States of America’s financial system.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What is the average yearly rate of change in the total U S dollar money supply? How many years will it take to double the current supply of U S dollars? What is the time line for the current national debt to double from to date? With a jobless recovery there is no way taxpayers can continue payment on the national debt.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Taxpayers may probably default on debt owed to recently bailout FRS. Something is broken in the US but it is not the income tax system.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.opineeconomics.blogspot.com&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;input name="cmd" value="_s-xclick" type="hidden"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;input name="hosted_button_id" value="8913286" type="hidden"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;input src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/btn_donateCC_LG.gif" name="submit" alt="PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online!" border="0" type="image"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img alt="" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/scr/pixel.gif" width="1" border="0" height="1" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/form&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2335556695495333629-7058088887415869818?l=opineeconomics.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/feeds/7058088887415869818/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2009/10/exploding-implosion-of-dollars.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/7058088887415869818'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/7058088887415869818'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2009/10/exploding-implosion-of-dollars.html' title='Exploding implosion of dollars'/><author><name>Sold Out Venues</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07560149681449739140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__f8gN0Y8Ocg/St_hE4LFwCI/AAAAAAAAAA8/c8T94CVVenA/S220/virtual+face.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2335556695495333629.post-190663435312349382</id><published>2009-10-23T17:38:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-10-23T17:44:40.131-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Pauli Exclusion Economics</title><content type='html'>&lt;meta equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"&gt;&lt;meta name="ProgId" content="Word.Document"&gt;&lt;meta name="Generator" content="Microsoft Word 10"&gt;&lt;meta name="Originator" content="Microsoft Word 10"&gt;&lt;link rel="File-List" href="file:///C:%5CDOCUME%7E1%5CFoster%5CLOCALS%7E1%5CTemp%5Cmsohtml1%5C01%5Cclip_filelist.xml"&gt;&lt;o:smarttagtype namespaceuri="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" name="country-region"&gt;&lt;/o:smarttagtype&gt;&lt;o:smarttagtype namespaceuri="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" name="place"&gt;&lt;/o:smarttagtype&gt;&lt;!--[if gte mso 9]&gt;&lt;xml&gt;  &lt;w:worddocument&gt;   &lt;w:view&gt;Normal&lt;/w:View&gt;   &lt;w:zoom&gt;0&lt;/w:Zoom&gt;   &lt;w:compatibility&gt;    &lt;w:breakwrappedtables/&gt;    &lt;w:snaptogridincell/&gt;    &lt;w:wraptextwithpunct/&gt;    &lt;w:useasianbreakrules/&gt;   &lt;/w:Compatibility&gt;   &lt;w:browserlevel&gt;MicrosoftInternetExplorer4&lt;/w:BrowserLevel&gt;  &lt;/w:WordDocument&gt; &lt;/xml&gt;&lt;![endif]--&gt;&lt;!--[if !mso]&gt;&lt;object classid="clsid:38481807-CA0E-42D2-BF39-B33AF135CC4D" id="ieooui"&gt;&lt;/object&gt; &lt;style&gt; st1\:*{behavior:url(#ieooui) } &lt;/style&gt; &lt;![endif]--&gt;&lt;style&gt; &lt;!--  /* Style Definitions */  p.MsoNormal, li.MsoNormal, div.MsoNormal 	{mso-style-parent:""; 	margin:0in; 	margin-bottom:.0001pt; 	mso-pagination:widow-orphan; 	font-size:12.0pt; 	font-family:"Times New Roman"; 	mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";} @page Section1 	{size:8.5in 11.0in; 	margin:1.0in 1.25in 1.0in 1.25in; 	mso-header-margin:.5in; 	mso-footer-margin:.5in; 	mso-paper-source:0;} div.Section1 	{page:Section1;} --&gt; &lt;/style&gt;&lt;!--[if gte mso 10]&gt; &lt;style&gt;  /* Style Definitions */  table.MsoNormalTable 	{mso-style-name:"Table Normal"; 	mso-tstyle-rowband-size:0; 	mso-tstyle-colband-size:0; 	mso-style-noshow:yes; 	mso-style-parent:""; 	mso-padding-alt:0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt; 	mso-para-margin:0in; 	mso-para-margin-bottom:.0001pt; 	mso-pagination:widow-orphan; 	font-size:10.0pt; 	font-family:"Times New Roman";} &lt;/style&gt; &lt;![endif]--&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;A New World Order and the U S of A are incompatible entities that cannot dominate the same global economy.

Its mission has been compromised pertaining to the $700 billion bailout and there is no support from front line taxpayers. The administration and congress could sacrifice their political careers by stopping IFC agents from infiltrating regulatory agencies and government employees from defecting to the IFC. Congress should allow capitalist principles to function instead of guessing how much stimulus is needed to prevent the next false flag economic meltdown.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Congressional button pushing and reacting to the consequences or impulsively cutting wires is national suicide. To fix the financial crisis congress has to admit and correct the opening of financial gates and pulling in the IFC horse was a fatal economic calculation. Correcting this financial crisis may require reinstating the Glass-Steagall act plus breaking up IFC units that are “To big to fail”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once government institutions are occupied, IFC will never voluntarily abandon the regulatory agency. A captured federal government has allowed 685 bailed out IFC units an opportunity to rejoin the federal banking system and finance more taxpayer’s debt. Congress has probably given away around $200 billion of taxpayers TARP money which will never be recovered. Congress should finance and deploy a legion of new law enforcement agents, substituting for those hundreds of agent occupied by terrorist plots since 9/11.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By cleaning up fraud, embezzlement and racketeering associated with the global meltdown of September 2008, government will create a way out of a tunnel with no light at the end. Government liberation will remove psychological shackles put in place to control taxpayers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The march back to fiscal responsible lines will be difficult and treacherous. Many congressional careers will not survive. The choice of trusting the IFC or embracing the Constitution is a decision each member has to make. The IFC has no quorums about taking down the U S Constitution, economy and dollar in the name of control.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Should congress stand and legislate? A lot of dirty tricks salvoes will be used to demoralize the congress. Only a cohesive, bipartisan congress will survive a standoff on the journey back from the abyss. The environment is not conducive on the path back to stewardship of taxpayer’s money. Cooperating, covering and concealing IFC agents will only lead to exposure of a complicit congress.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;form method="post" action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;input value="_s-xclick" type="hidden" name="cmd"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;input value="8913286" type="hidden" name="hosted_button_id"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;input border="0" alt="PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online!" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/btn_donateCC_LG.gif" type="image" name="submit"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img border="0" alt="" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/scr/pixel.gif" width="1" height="1" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/form&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2335556695495333629-7961782017543854067?l=opineeconomics.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/feeds/7961782017543854067/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2009/10/no-way-out.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/7961782017543854067'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/7961782017543854067'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2009/10/no-way-out.html' title='No way out'/><author><name>Sold Out Venues</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07560149681449739140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__f8gN0Y8Ocg/St_hE4LFwCI/AAAAAAAAAA8/c8T94CVVenA/S220/virtual+face.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2335556695495333629.post-6835787217039716477</id><published>2009-10-15T21:40:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-10-15T21:45:43.921-07:00</updated><title type='text'>The Verdict is Guilty</title><content type='html'>The Federal Government of United States of America has been captured.  Government can no longer promote, protect and preserve the constitution, its citizenry or the nation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;An international cabal which includes finance, media, academia, science and government is pillaging, plundering and plucking the treasury, taxpayers and the U S economy. The U S government has surrendered but continues covering up this take over through its operatives in the administration and congress.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;President George W. Bush summed it up when he stated “I abandoned capitalist principles to save the capitalist system”. The question is whose capitalist system did he save? The administration certainly did not save America’s capitalist system which has been turned up side down.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A free market capitalist system has a mechanism for dismantling failed business models in an orderly manner. It is called bankruptcy court. Free market capitalism allows willing and able institutions, fill gaps left open by broken business models.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Assurance, trust and confidence are important words to taxpayers as well as observers outside of U S borders. Creditors watching the U S of A’s unfolding financial crisis will determine whether they continue to finance American debt.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Major economies continue to move towards a new monetary carry trade. Oil is no longer trading primarily in U S dollars. The U S dollar is deflating in purchasing ability and inflating in quantities circulating the globe.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The verdict is the U S government is guilty of a massive cover up.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;input name="cmd" value="_s-xclick" type="hidden"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;input name="hosted_button_id" value="8913286" type="hidden"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;input src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/btn_donateCC_LG.gif" name="submit" alt="PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online!" border="0" type="image"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img alt="" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/scr/pixel.gif" border="0" width="1" height="1" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/form&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2335556695495333629-6835787217039716477?l=opineeconomics.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/feeds/6835787217039716477/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2009/10/verdict-is-guilty.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/6835787217039716477'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/6835787217039716477'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2009/10/verdict-is-guilty.html' title='The Verdict is Guilty'/><author><name>Sold Out Venues</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07560149681449739140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__f8gN0Y8Ocg/St_hE4LFwCI/AAAAAAAAAA8/c8T94CVVenA/S220/virtual+face.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2335556695495333629.post-7138253119094094445</id><published>2009-10-14T22:38:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-10-14T22:43:17.181-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Reparations for Taxpayers</title><content type='html'>&lt;meta equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"&gt;&lt;meta name="ProgId" content="Word.Document"&gt;&lt;meta name="Generator" content="Microsoft Word 10"&gt;&lt;meta name="Originator" content="Microsoft Word 10"&gt;&lt;link rel="File-List" href="file:///C:%5CDOCUME%7E1%5CFoster%5CLOCALS%7E1%5CTemp%5Cmsohtml1%5C04%5Cclip_filelist.xml"&gt;&lt;!--[if gte mso 9]&gt;&lt;xml&gt;  &lt;w:worddocument&gt;   &lt;w:view&gt;Normal&lt;/w:View&gt;   &lt;w:zoom&gt;0&lt;/w:Zoom&gt;   &lt;w:compatibility&gt;    &lt;w:breakwrappedtables/&gt;    &lt;w:snaptogridincell/&gt;    &lt;w:wraptextwithpunct/&gt;    &lt;w:useasianbreakrules/&gt;   &lt;/w:Compatibility&gt;   &lt;w:browserlevel&gt;MicrosoftInternetExplorer4&lt;/w:BrowserLevel&gt;  &lt;/w:WordDocument&gt; &lt;/xml&gt;&lt;![endif]--&gt;&lt;style&gt; &lt;!--  /* Style Definitions */  p.MsoNormal, li.MsoNormal, div.MsoNormal 	{mso-style-parent:""; 	margin:0in; 	margin-bottom:.0001pt; 	mso-pagination:widow-orphan; 	font-size:12.0pt; 	font-family:"Times New Roman"; 	mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";} @page Section1 	{size:8.5in 11.0in; 	margin:1.0in 1.25in 1.0in 1.25in; 	mso-header-margin:.5in; 	mso-footer-margin:.5in; 	mso-paper-source:0;} div.Section1 	{page:Section1;} --&gt; &lt;/style&gt;&lt;!--[if gte mso 10]&gt; &lt;style&gt;  /* Style Definitions */  table.MsoNormalTable 	{mso-style-name:"Table Normal"; 	mso-tstyle-rowband-size:0; 	mso-tstyle-colband-size:0; 	mso-style-noshow:yes; 	mso-style-parent:""; 	mso-padding-alt:0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt; 	mso-para-margin:0in; 	mso-para-margin-bottom:.0001pt; 	mso-pagination:widow-orphan; 	font-size:10.0pt; 	font-family:"Times New Roman";} &lt;/style&gt; &lt;![endif]--&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Wall Street will give out bonuses in the area of 140 billion dollars by the end of 2009.

The Latvian government will send a message to the IMF, EU, Switzerland and Swedish banks and the rest of the world. Will the government continue to penalize Latvian taxpayers because of an orchestrated financial crisis or default on its debt? Latvia is technically broke and will allocate 61% of GDP by 2011. All parties recognize payments at this level are unsustainable. Latvian will decide whether they will continue to participate in a global RMBS derivative ponzi scheme or let chip fall where they may.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Back in state side, it has been acknowledged by financial agents elected to congress; defaults on RMBS are good and help to maintain the value of real estate. As long as banks can keep none paying mortgages on their books without foreclosing or restricted by the liability, banks will retain all stimulus or bailout money to cover all financial requirements&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Since the first stimulus and bailout package did not give much of a bang for the buck. Government has decided to keep stimulating until there is some measurable growth in the economy. Yes, taxpayers will have to allow a little congressional pork for having unwilling skin in the game.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A two front financial crisis, deflation and inflation, will lower wages and salaries while increasing unemployment, enlarge the supply of money and devalue the dollar, keep interest rates low, expand the budget and national debt. A two front financial crisis is dismantling the U S dollar carry trade and infusing a gold market with none filling demand.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The U S economy has been attacked by both deflation and inflation. Although the credit industry in general has raised interest rates on credit cards, less people have a large enough credit line to stimulate the last quarter of this year. Cash for clunkers deflated the number of insured, older and working automobiles but inflated the number of foreign cars on U S roads. What price is the taxpayer willing to pay for another stimulus?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;form method="post" action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;input value="_s-xclick" type="hidden" name="cmd"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;input value="8913286" type="hidden" name="hosted_button_id"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;input border="0" alt="PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online!" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/btn_donateCC_LG.gif" type="image" name="submit"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img border="0" alt="" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/scr/pixel.gif" width="1" height="1" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/form&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2335556695495333629-2303791106204717732?l=opineeconomics.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/feeds/2303791106204717732/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2009/10/stimulus-is-not-free.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/2303791106204717732'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/2303791106204717732'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2009/10/stimulus-is-not-free.html' title='Stimulus is not FREE'/><author><name>Sold Out Venues</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07560149681449739140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__f8gN0Y8Ocg/St_hE4LFwCI/AAAAAAAAAA8/c8T94CVVenA/S220/virtual+face.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2335556695495333629.post-6865668275387111585</id><published>2009-10-11T14:47:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-10-11T14:47:43.509-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Nov 29, 2005 Spot Gold $500, grrrrrr 321gold</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.321gold.com/mustread/spotgold500_grrrrrr.html"&gt;Nov 29, 2005 Spot Gold $500, grrrrrr 321gold&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2335556695495333629-6865668275387111585?l=opineeconomics.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='related' href='http://www.321gold.com/mustread/spotgold500_grrrrrr.html' title='Nov 29, 2005 Spot Gold $500, grrrrrr 321gold'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/feeds/6865668275387111585/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2009/10/nov-29-2005-spot-gold-500-grrrrrr.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/6865668275387111585'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/6865668275387111585'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2009/10/nov-29-2005-spot-gold-500-grrrrrr.html' title='Nov 29, 2005 Spot Gold $500, grrrrrr 321gold'/><author><name>Sold Out Venues</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07560149681449739140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__f8gN0Y8Ocg/St_hE4LFwCI/AAAAAAAAAA8/c8T94CVVenA/S220/virtual+face.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2335556695495333629.post-9007762493804762359</id><published>2009-10-10T10:19:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-10-14T10:53:23.533-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Exporting Manufactured Bubbles around the Globe</title><content type='html'>Exporting Manufactured Bubbles around the Globe&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;President Obama nomination for the Nobel Peace Prize within eleven days of his presidency represents the most recent US bubble exported around the world. The bubble is based on confidence in a peaceful global future orchestrated by a world wide popular American president.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Winning the prize has given President Obama the opportunity to both redeploy the U S military out of Afghanistan and allow the so call moderate Taliban governance over that country. Another possibility is global support for a preempted strike on Iran. Iran is currently accepting euro payment for its oil and amassing huge quantities of gold instead of American dollars.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A bubble creates an illusion of reality. Bubble manufactures mask their intention to manipulate the economy and deceive common folk. By the time this popular presidential bubble breaks the Obama regime along with its handlers should have accomplished their goals.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What happens when the last bastion of hope dissipates because of an implosion of the mother of all bubbles? Do not be surprised to find within the dark pool of unregulated derivatives a massive fraud of U S government treasuries.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A global exodus from the dollar as the carry trade currency will also undermine the safe haven of U S treasuries. Taxpayers may have reached a point of no return concerning deficit spending by congress. What will happen the day congress can no longer spend money that it does not take in through taxes, fees and fines? Will the Feds raise interest rates?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How high would income taxes rise to pay the interest on the national debt? The administration, congress and the judicial will pretend they had no idea, were surprised and could not have seen what is coming.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;History has documented the fallacy of a fiat currency. As in 1775 when a fiat bubble broke around a U S colonial currency and within a year American patriots were at war promoting the concept of independence.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The question is whether the power that is poses the ability and tenacity to inflate another bubble, siphon of commissions, transaction fees, sell their positions and transfer all losses to taxpayers. Deficit spending is a threat to all children.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;form method="post" action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;input value="_s-xclick" type="hidden" name="cmd"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;input value="8913286" type="hidden" name="hosted_button_id"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;input border="0" alt="PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online!" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/btn_donateCC_LG.gif" type="image" name="submit"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img border="0" alt="" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/scr/pixel.gif" width="1" height="1" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/form&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2335556695495333629-9007762493804762359?l=opineeconomics.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/feeds/9007762493804762359/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2009/10/exporting-manufactured-bubbles-around.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/9007762493804762359'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2335556695495333629/posts/default/9007762493804762359'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://opineeconomics.blogspot.com/2009/10/exporting-manufactured-bubbles-around.html' title='Exporting Manufactured Bubbles around the Globe'/><author><name>Sold Out Venues</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07560149681449739140</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__f8gN0Y8Ocg/St_hE4LFwCI/AAAAAAAAAA8/c8T94CVVenA/S220/virtual+face.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
