Next time you’ll be asked to give up another civil right, one might think about – why should I?
since the beginning of this blog. Found today on ZeroHedge: http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2014-11-16/9-biggest-myths-people-believe-about-system
Citation of the 9 myth (unchanged and uncommented)
“
1. The dollar will continue to be the dominant currency.
This is a total farce. Grumblings grow louder around the world to establish a new non-dollar financial system, and China has taken the lead to make this a reality.
2. The US is still the dominant military power in the world.
If you measure by the quality of trained personnel, this is true. But what good is all of that military power if you can’t afford to do anything with it?
3. The police exist to protect the people.
Wrong again. With so much civil asset forfeiture taking place at the point of a gun (federally funded assault rifles), it’s clear they’re far more concerned about protecting those that maintain the status quo than protecting you.
4. Elections make a difference
Completely false. Most Western governments borrow money to pay interest on the money they’ve already borrowed.
In the US, they spend so much on mandatory entitlements and interest they could eliminate almost the entire government and still not run a balanced budget.
At that level of desperation, it matters not who’s in power.
5. Your bank is safe
Your bank might HAVE a safe. But if you look at objective data, many banks in the West have incredibly thin levels of capital and liquidity—the exact opposite of what a safe bank is supposed to have.
Oh yeah, they’re backed by poorly capitalized deposit insurance funds, which are guaranteed by insolvent governments.
And bear in mind that even if your bank is reasonably capitalized, you are still guaranteed to lose money on a tax adjusted, inflation adjusted basis if you you’re holding your savings there.
6. You have to go to college in order to get ahead
Quite the opposite—going to college in many cases can get you behind; just ask any 36-year old still paying down that $100,000 student loan debt.
The world is a big place full of opportunity. Skills and experience matter more than pieces of paper.
Here’s a better option, especially for young people: head overseas, and become an apprentice to a successful, knowledgeable individual that you respect.
Any young person who thinks that going to college is a good idea should just ask any of their unemployed friends saddled with $100,000 of debt if it was worth it.
7. I saw it on TV so it must be true.
Ufff. The mainstream media exist to paint a distorted version of reality so that people are kept placated, docile and largely clueless about what really goes on in the world.
8. Debt doesn’t matter because we owe it to ourselves
Whoever first said this must have a lot of whips and chains in his closet because he seems to enjoy pain.
If we owe the debt to ‘ourselves,’ that means that we will need to default on ourselves.
This means no more Social Security, Medicare, etc. It means causing the US Federal Reserve to become insolvent and spark a currency crisis. It means causing the collapse of every bank in the country.
Sure, no biggie.
9. The United States is the Land of the Free
Draconian surveillance efforts on its citizens. Punitive taxes, fines and regulation. Rising police state. Telling people what they can or can’t put in their bodies, how to grow their food, who to adore, who to hate. Preventing them to collect their own rainwater and live off the grid.
“
Now my comments. I do not agree whith it all at around 100 %. But there is way to much truth in it to fell any kind of comfort. If you know that there is a list of men, having to get murdered, and if there’s no chance to ever know how one might have got on this list. Then you can see there is a death-thread of your own government on yourself. That’s the bottom line of suppression. It’s the center of arbitrariness.
There’s one point I strongly disagree with. That’s the military power of the US. By any means and just be looking around the world this still is true. The trillions are burned world-wide and the US has the highest expenses on earth and ever on it’s military. So they are a threat to EVERYONE world wide. And the more they despair, the most likely they’ll use this military machine to „survive another day.“ Even if it meant to burn the earth….

Just a few remarks… I sympathise to him. I once was young also and did believe I’d do the right thing doing my forced year in the Bundeswehr. Hell after- a few months I recognized how stupid I was. I would have the chance to refuse going to the Bundeswehr and I for my part would never ever do it again, but in one case if we really got attacked.
As- the Soldier wrote, he probably had the same idea. But in the end it’s was his decision to join the forces and to got whereever he was send. This can’t be discussed, it was his fault.
Anyway you can see who big/great the deception really is that people do believe in it. One would expect that those sending soldiers out would be kind of responsible.- – – – But this you simply can forget. I wrote about the role of Police and Military, it’s hardly ever for the citizens it ALWAYS for the „grand“ better of the politicians. This never ever was different. The US-Soldiera in Germany in WW II did not defend USA. They were there because politicians decided that they must go. And enough of them believed those leaders. In the end they are just slaughter men. The veteran of WWI puts as much truth in his words as ever one man did, see the graphic here.
The first every population should do in case of war, if going to their government, and hand them out the guns and let them go first.- All the „elites“ know surely why they do not want to enter the line of fire. How does the died soldier told them:
„Your cowardice and selfishness were established decades ago. You were not willing to risk yourselves for our nation but you sent hundreds of thousands of young men and women to be sacrificed in a senseless war with no more thought than it takes to put out the garbage. “
I will not mourn a second if they will die, even if premature trough whatever circumstance. I just wish them, selfish as I am that it’ll hurt terrible. Thy should dread death for a few month/years and justice would require that short before the war ended they will get killed.
Anyway the died soldier has know it better:
„You may evade justice but in our eyes you are each guilty of egregious war crimes, of plunder and, finally, of murder, including the murder of thousands of young Americans—my fellow veterans—whose future you stole.“
It’s as given as amen in church that they will get unharmed. They will be cheered as „great“ man, from there after-followers.- – If they would be socialist pure they would be even cheered for mass murdering. Just see the unbelievable ideas of having murdered on your T-Shirt (like Che Guevara) How they are feasting Stalin, Lenin and how the Germans still vote for the Linke. The old party which has oppressed millions of peoples and have stolen them everything. If there’s a hell I really wish it upon them.
to imagine that there might exist a problem. But reality bites: http://reason.com/archives/2014/10/21/the-lefts-creeping-totalitarianism-on-af
I’m very much against stupdiness and recklessness and insanity, but there’s no escape. Politician and bureaucrats to overrun any limit on everything.
How can one think that just one woman will have any adavantage from this?
Well I should not be puzzleed any more. Those who have established central banking to not stop after one madness, they just try harder and harde to drive stupidity to the max. Here’s an example on how to do that….
from http://www.lewrockwell.com/2014/10/gary-north/so-many-liberals-so-few-lifeboats/
The liberal WaPo got bought last year by Jeff Bezos, who runs Amazon.
It has just announced a freeze on pension benefits.
The sinking ship of print media is doomed. It is a delight to see. All those liberals; so few lifeboats!
They had hoped. They had dreamed. They had trusted management. Now they are getting a taste of economic reality. Oh, woe!
They had no major competition for decades. Now there is Craigslist. Free.
Now there is Drudge for all the wire service news. Free.
Free for all. That’s what it is out there: a free for all.
WaPo cannot compete.The strategy of buying up major city newspapers was central to liberalism. That strategy has failed. Technology did an end run around it.
The chickens have come home to roost. The chicken coop’s floor is old copies of WaPo.
Print media are where you get day-old news. This is great for lining the floors of chicken coops, but not much else.
Votes are undemocratic.
http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2014-09-29/real-crisis-europe-will-be-political-spain-ground-zero
Or be it anti-democratic. Well I guess I’m a bit surprised I was always thinking voting is the „hallmark“ for democracy now I have to learn it’s the tombstone of democracy.
To live means to learn. And sometimes you learn profound imbecility.
Dollar steigt -> Abrechnung in € wird teurer
Ölpreis steigt ebenfalls (siehe http://www.rottmeyer.de/der-goldpreis-und-der-spuk-steigender-zinsen/2/)
und trotzdem bezahle ich weniger als das Ganze Jahr an der Tankstelle?
Passt doch nicht zusammen….
Passt auch nicht aber der Ölpreis ist eben in den letzten Monaten nicht gestiegen sondern um run 15 % gefalllen, der Eurokurs gegenüber dem USD um 9 % ergo wurde der Sprit minimal billiger. Das ist alles schon so in Ordnung, die oben aufgeführte Grafik geht endet eben irgendwann am Anfang des Jahres….
if the answer on everything is: Let’s go to war.

The P/E is as high as nearly ever.
So if the the head of the most influential central bank world word, does not get that right. Then we’re sure in tales land.
I still can’t believe what she is saying about it. It’s denying in it’s most cruel- form.- And that will fire back, one can be sure about it.
Auf dem neuen – Blog, vom alten Blog wurden alle Einträge und Kommentare importiet. Ich hoffe es wurde nichts vergessen. Ich habe schon mehrmals versucht den Blog zu migrieren, das hat bisher nciht so gut geklappt. Ich hoffe mit dem WordPress auf dem eigenen Server wird es besser werden.
Im Augenblick lasse ich beide Blogs bestehen. Werde aber erst mal nur hier posten
Die Themen werden die gleichen bleiben und auch meine politische Einstellung hat sich nicht geändert
Herzlich willkommen auf dem „tollen“ alten/neuen Blog.
in the endless runs of lies:
Well fractional reserve, is another word for guaranteed theft, and guess what the EU does?
Exactly the send money down the road:

Who is surprised?
http://www.zerohedge.com/contributed/2014-05-16/spying-meant-crush-citizens%E2%80%99-dissent-not-catch-terrorists
It’s a way to keep themselves in power, because those in power do not have to server they just steal, rob and blackmail.
I don’t know why the US cititzens gave up on their civil rights. AFAIKT there’s better around, au contraire, it seems the terrorist stuff is worse then before. Well if you do terrorize others, you can not expect they will be very kind to you. Every child killed, every man killed and every woman killed leave someone who things about revenge. And so the terror just bears new terror, and so it seems the terror on the own citizenship has risen dramatically..
if it’s given.

I told the same me German readers on http://fdominicus.blogspot.com
und das im ÖR:
Ach nee? Wie kann das passieren?
NSA = National Shame Agency
It’s shame for the US, and every one working there is also a shame for the USA. You are the terrorists, not the population. And you deserve to be fighted. All the bad for you. Everyone volunatarily working for this „Agency“ is a fascist… So say welcome to the new fourth Reich. Who had imagined that it would be the USA?
Be assured even your times are counted. Maybe I will not survive your end, but I hope my children will. Anyway I prefer to see your ende before mine. You are among the dirties men ever. I guess you can name yourself SSA ( I guess you will be able to figure out that meaning for yourself)
If you see you boss, say hello asshole to him from me.
„There is a lesson to be learned from all of this, and I think it is a very important one. When it comes right down to it, any government – not just the Argentine government, but the US government as well – will simply do whatever it thinks it needs to do to keep the status quo intact, with no moral or ethical considerations.“
From http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2013-06-05/argentina-textbook-case-government-gone-mad
Really isn’t that the state of government world-wide? Isn’t that nearly always the state. The states are the biggest thieves and wrong-doers world-wide. All the past wars were about one state against one or more others. And the biggest defraud ever established is the world wide dominance of fiat-money currencies. Nothing does more harm to every men on this planet. Just a few are a bit more in the abyss but the others try really hard to follow straight….
Well governemt to the rescue.
http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2013-06-02/obamacare-double-cost-insurance-average-californian
So don’t bother just settle over and pay more and let them take away all your money. You do not just have to pay for yourself but all the freeriders which are eligible for „support“. Who could be suprised about the height fo your payments then?
Obamacare – just means this Obama cares for himself and his gang.
You did not know that? Well then you are even more stupid then I thought….
it contains „there’s something strange in the neighborhood“…
I know have stumbled upon a few things I’ve not seen in the papers since ages. Crtitical- comments about the indebted French and a critique- about the easy money policy from the ECB.
Add to this mix a letter to the public in the FAZ (I think one of the highest regarded newspapers here in Germany where they criticize the latest EU meetings. This is very very unusual in the main-stream press of Germany.
I’m puzzling what’s going one. I’ll lean back and watch interested what the next few days and weeks will bring.
Obama said „everything is fine, just all is running a bit slow!“, no suprise, It’s also no suprise that he likes to go on as in the past, no suprise. His „Playground-friend“ Bernanke, stays, no suprise, the interests rate are as low as never, no suprise, good-dooers are gain after our pockets, no suprise…
So be assured, everything is fine, no suprise…..
The question
The answer
Geithner has known ans asked for this bonus stuff.
Again the cuteness of our political „elite“….
another clear pinpointed comment on the madness of throwing good money after bad money.
http://www.fivethirtyeight.com/2009/03/best-argument-youll-read-for-bank.html
AIG from 80 Billions to at least 150 Billions, with no end in sight. Now
bottomless pit gets a scary meaning.
Too big too fail?
Well it seems the manipulation was within bounds, so the forecasts were right and Obama has won clearly. A clear victoriy is what was needed, one can not imagine what would have happened in tight race. Now what can we expect from the new president? At least it seems unlikely he will beat His Insanity on the worse side. What I expect is very clear. Closing of all Guantanamos all over the world, more support for international cooperation and better sooner than later ending this terrible war in Iraq, then put back thos fanatics about terrorism.
But hey that are just my wishes, we’ll see how the new president will fare soon.
I’ve an ungut feeling about this elections in the US. I’m quite sure that the last elections were manipulated, maybe just slightly but what will happen this time? Will they try again to manipulate the elections? What if they succeed? Currently it seems the next President will be Obama, but what if this will turn out to be untrue today? Martial law?
Will America really follow the pathes outlined in so many movies?
Could it be that
If you give money no worth it’ll get no worth, is at the ground of all financial problems currently.
Just see that the Fed has flooded the market with money in good times and flooded it more extensivly in bad times. So the whole money supply has left „real“ ground. Just guess how easy it is:
Let the be an inflation rate of 2 %, but let there be a part of the economy where one has 10% inflation. So now the Fed was oriented at the low bound, so they make money cheap (let’s say around 3-4 %. People not dumb, have seen this discrepancy and collected debt as hell. From the individuals point of view this was clever. But seen in the large it was a catastropy to happen.
So it has come. Now money was definitly too cheap and indeed there was way too much money. So how could even more money help. Where will all the new „generated“ money end. Currently we are heading for a world-wide recession. But if there will be even more money, shouldn’t the result be stagflation?
I can not help but I fear stagflation quite much more than recession. It means you can not print even more money so the money suply must be reduced. Well with the Trillions spend in this year and maybe up to the half of the next year. What spares are left?
If I just see the current debt numbers, the answer is none. So we’re heading towards a bigger problem as ever. Money can not be printed any more, because it’s not worth anything then. So how will they break this cycle.
I’m really getting very pessimistic.
How can anyone trust His Insanity? Who can trust Mr Paulson?
Who can trust any of the current politicians? They always right about trust but they have done everything to underpin any trust one might have had.
How can anyone trust politicians not even able to run a balanced budget?
How can anyone trust politicians which allow killing of their people?
How can anyone trust politicians after their lies about mass destruction weapons in Iraque?
Just name one action which would qualify for giving trust?
Civil rights? Down the drain.
Earned money? Forget it, wo in Monopoly….
Trust in justice? Come on let’s be serious….
Have you heard of any banker recently? Have you heard? I take responsibility?
Yes you got it I’m mad for anger….
Could it be?
The most speacking is IMHO this:
„One of the least attractive elements is a section designed to curb executive pay at banks that participate in the bail-out package. These include limiting stock-related pay and banning ‚golden parachutes‘ for executives.“
So enjoy….
Anything unclear about bailout?
It’s a shame especially for all our economy „leaders“. There „leadership“ obviously is those of the captain on the Titanic, just move faster to win the blue band. I’m a bit proud on our (Germany) politicians, first time in ages. After they have got the promises of the private sector, the private sector does not want to stick to that plan. I guess they were thinking, let’s do like the Americans, let the tax payer pay dearly. Well at least this was denied. The danish governement and the private sector have an agreement with which I could live (although I think the private part gains more from it (danish solution)
So I’d take the private bank in responsibilty. If it’s true that in Amercica Bankers are liable with the private property, then I wonder why nothing has happened in that regard. IMHO it’s very easy they’ve gained most and this was not by work but by chance. The sold as many credits as they could and have initiated the failure of them. Then those having gained from immoral contracts, have to bear the consequences.
Let’s see what’ll happen….
The Failout plan can not expected to work with a acceptable certainty. In fact I’d bet 1:10 it’ll fail.
But if you throw out the money now , you have nothing else if this failout plan fails. It’s high time to prepare for a recession phase. The prices for home equity will fall, maybe crumble. At least down a third IMHO. That will distroy a few Trillions of value, this fall can not be held with 700 Billions.
So keep the money, now and see how to spend it one something which will work with higher probability. Building of houses will dry out, however the US infrastructure needs some overhaul.
You have to face the fact that Oil is sparse, and you have to face the fact that Water is sparse also in many regions. In the forseeable future California and especially Las Vegas will suffer under water shortage. You’ve to come back an invest in your own country in the producing industries. The cars are build sloppy, the houses often also, this sloppyness will cost you dearly.
You can not help, but the chinese have over a trillion US-$ to spend, you must be prepared that they will buy cheaply if not now than just a bit later. Use the money for an „american“ solution. Tha means give the people the means to help themselves. That means „fair paid“ jobs, „fair prices“, you need as every developed country craftmanns which can build, repair and maintain the ideas engineers invent. So spend money wisely on education for your children and grown-ups also.
It’s not worth hanging to just one plan, (which in fact is none). Search for alternatives, discuss them and then make an educated choice. Currently you give yourself none but one choice and that’s exactly as useful as none plan at all. If in doubt, do nothing, that’s at least an alternative….
