Hypocritical Corporate Democrats and Selling You Out While Feeling Your Pain |
"You can fool all the people some of the time, and some of the people all the time, but you cannot fool all the people all the time."
Abraham Lincoln
As always, the GOP does the same thing in the service of Big Money, and much worse and most of the time unabashedly.
But the Democrats keep trying to ride this 'lesser of two evils' gimmick and keep side-skirting badly needed genuine reform. They want their cake and eat it too. The cake is public office, frosted with huge Big Money politicalMonday, March 19, 2018 |

U.S. bank derivatives books larger since rescue of Bear Stearns |
At the end of January 2008, in what would turn out to be its final annual report, Bear Stearns went into some detail about its big book of derivatives. The book had a notional value of $13.4 trillion at the end of November, Bear said, up more than 50 percent from a year earlier. A two-notch downgrade in the firm's credit ratings, it added, would require it to come up with an extra $353m in collateral.

Tim Allen Is Back In Spite Of PC Culture: ‘It’s Like ’30’s Germany’ |
Famous non-liberal Tim Allen is coming back with a vengeance. After months of being out of the spotlight, he’s decided to put the politically correct “safe space” culture under the microscope in a new TV show.
In an interview last year, the comedian likened the liberal atmosphere in Hollywood to that of Nazi Germany. “You’ll get beat up if you don’t believe what everybody believes,” he said, admitting he was afraid to reveal he attended Trump’s inauguration. “It’s like ’30’s Germany.”

Gold and Silver Bullion Are Only “Safe Investments Left” – Stockman |

Top Five Altcoin Cryptocurrency Picks for 2018 |
While bitcoin dominated the headlines of 2017, many altcoins have far surpassed it in terms of gains against the US dollar. Furthermore, fees for transactions on the bitcoin network have increased to three or four dollars’ worth of coin a piece, sometimes more. Add to this the fact that the average person can hardly afford more than a few hundredths of a bitcoin or less, and it’s not difficult to see why altcoins have had the most spectacular year ever.
Not all altcoins are created equal. SomSaturday, December 30, 2017 |

The Connection Between Economic Crisis and Cryptocurrency |
Out of all the mainstream hysteria about crypto that we have heard in 2017, one question of the utmost importance often goes unasked: why now, and what is happening to fiat currency?
Bitcoin has existed since 2009. There have been many ups and downs between then and now. But nothing like what 2017 brought. The total market cap of all coins came in at under ten billion USD for most of that time. Today it is over half a trillion, and will almost definitely exceed the trillion-dollar mark sometSunday, December 24, 2017 |

Cryptocurrencies Correct – Price Targets for Buying the Dip |
Investor psychology is such that everyone wants to wait for a correction and then when it happens, they are too scared to buy. Remember to be greedy when others are fearful.
The following is a portion of a trade alert recently sent to premium members.
The entire cryptocurrency sector has corrected sharply today. I believe prices had become overheated and this correction is healthy for the long-term bull market in cryptocurrencies. I think this will be another routine correction and not the starFriday, December 22, 2017 |

What's Keeping the German Grand Coalition Talks Alive |
After rejecting a Grand Coalition, SPD's Sigmar Gabriel seeks to keep the hopes alive despite little party support. Why?Background
Heading into the last election, SPD failed to distinguish itself. Voters reacted appropriately, abandoning SPD, leading to its worst performance ever.
When SPD initially declined the opportunity to form a government, Merkel attempted a three-way coalition of CDU/CSU, FDP, and the Greens.
Differences were irreconcilable, and FDP broke off discussion.

Venezuela Announces “the Petro” Currency Backed by Gold, Oil and Diamonds - Rory Hall |
I sent this to Chris Powell, GATA, and he asked, what about the “convertibility”?
Apparently, Venezuelan President Madura is following China’s lead, but
instead of a subtle rollout over time as to not cause some kind of
market shake-up, he has decided that now is as good a time as any to
announce the creation of a new digital currency: the Petro, backed by
Venezuela’s gold, oil and diamond reserves.

Why Bitcoin Cash When You Can Dash |
Bitcoin Cash made a resurgence last week, with many people thinking it might overtake Bitcoin (BTC) in market value. Roger Ver, Jihan Wu, Craig Wright (the fake Satoshi) and others were busy promoting and pumping Bitcoin Cash (BCH) last week. Their main argument is that Bitcoin transactions are too expensive and it takes too long to confirm transactions. This assessment is accurate, but I believe it is a temporary condition and that we don’t need a new hard fork of Bitcoin in order to address thSaturday, November 18, 2017 |

Big Picture Perspective:
Consider the 30-year graphs for gold and silver. Both peaked in 1980, corrected for 20 years and bottomed in 2001.
Following 9-11, official U.S. national debt substantially increased, while the actions of the U.S. government, Federal Reserve, and commercial banks continually devalued the dollar. Bond markets extended their multi-decade bull run (yield decline) and stock markets are making all-time highs.

We’ll Look Back At This And Cringe, Part 1: European Junk Bonds Yield Less Than US Treasuries - John Rubino |
Financial bubbles are the office Christmas parties of the investment
world. They start slowly, with a certain amount of anxiety. But they end
wildly, with acts and decisions that in retrospect seem really, really
stupid.
Millions of people out there still bear the psychic scars of buying
gold at $800/oz in 1980 or a tech stock at 1,000 times earnings in 1999
or a Miami condo for $1,000 per square foot in 2006.

SILVER:
Silver has been the money of commerce for several thousand years. In contrast, unbacked debt-based fiat currencies have been a devaluing money substitute for decades.
According to the St. Louis Federal Reserve, total debt securities and official national debt have increased exponentially for decades. Prices for the stock market, silver, gold, food and most other necessities increase similarly.
National debt has risen at 8 – 9% per year since 1913. Since then the value of the dollar hFriday, October 27, 2017 |

Are You Infuriated Yet |
More and more, I'm encountering people who are simply infuriated with how our "leaders" are running (or to put it more accurately, ruining) things right now. And I share that fury.
It’s perfectly normal human response to be infuriated when an outside agent hurts you, especially if the pain seems unnecessary, illogical or random.

What You Know for Sure that Just Ain’t So! |
It ain’t what you don’t know that gets you into trouble. It’s what you know for sure that just ain’t so.
-Mark Twain
We know many things for sure. Examples are:
In 1913 we knew that a European war was unlikely because European countries would not engage in pointless and mutually destructive actions. Later we knew it as “the war to end all wars.”
In 1915 we knew that the war would be over in a matter of weeks.
In 1929 we knew that the stock market had reached a permanently high price plateau.
