EU Deposit Insurance, a Bank Crisis in Italy and Greece, and the Coming Ban on Cash
Last week we investigated nonperforming EU loans and an EU proposal to freeze accounts if a run on a bank starts. Today let’s investigate the EU’s deposit insurance scheme with the likely result being a ban on cash. On July 19, with little media publicity, the EU Single Resolution Board issued a statement with this exact title: Press Release – Banking Union – Single Resolution Board collects €6.6 billion in annual contributions to the Single Resolution Fund, now reaching €17 billion in total.

The 200 Week Moving Average War-And Why The Cartel Will Lose It
Yesterday, my MUST LISTEN Audioblog started with a discussion of this clip of soon-to-be French President Marine LePen humiliating soon-to-be ex German Chancellor Angela Merkel and soon-to-be ex French President Francois Hollande in front of the European Parliament.  As when she wins, it will be blindingly apparent that Europeans want their sovereignty back, no matter what the cost.  And believe me, the “cost” will be high.  As in, the collapse of the Euro; mass default of hundreds of billions o

As Europe’s Financial System Fails, Gold Will Rise
“The Die is Cast” for Europe and the EU. This is what Caesar said when he crossed the Rubicon in 49 BC marching towards Rome, leading to a major change in Europe’s history. The Italian referendum which took place on December 4 had a similar significance. The Brexit vote in which Britain decided to divorce from the EU started the breakup of the artificial construction of 500 million people being ruled by an unelected and unaccountable elite in Brussels.

The Debtors and the Savers 2016 
This being the anniversary of the new Freegold Speakeasy, I wanted to write a post for both sites. And after taking stock of the current state of affairs, as well as the changes over the past year that led us to where we are today, an updated Debtors v. Savers post was the obvious choice. What I'm talking about, well… there are a lot of things that happened over the past year, but I think the main ones are the European migrant crisis which is tearing Europe apart, at least on ideological grou

Chaos Volatility On The Rise
No, that’s not a ‘click bait’ sensationalist title. Things are getting ‘weird’ out there if you’re trying to be polite, and downright 'chaotic' if you're being blunt.  Everywhere we look, we see signs that the systems that support us are breaking down.  The economy no longer spins off enough surplus for the elites to take what they consider their share with enough left over for everyone else.  So the wealth gap grows unchecked into politically and socially destabilizing levels. The oceans are ra

EU Plans $290,000 Per Person Fine on Countries Refusing “Fair Share” of Refugees; Case For Brexit Crystallized
The European Commission plans fines of $290,000 per person on countries refusing to take in their fair share of refugees. This plan is aimed straight at Poland, Slovokia, Hungary, the Czech Republic, and Austria. The UK, Ireland, and Denmark all have opt-out policies, but the UK  cannot expect that to last forever unless the vote goes for Brexit. Punitive Fines Today the EC fired a warning shot across the bow of countries who believe they have a right to control their foreign policies. The anno

Merkel Warns of Chaos as 30,000 Refugees Bottled Up in Greece
Chaos Coming Now that Balkan countries and Austria have closed the border to the North, 30,000 refugees are bottled up in Greece. More arrive daily. In response, German Chancellor Angela Merkel wars of chaos. As to who is to blame for the chaos, the Chancellor ought to look in the mirror. Merkel welcomed the refugees with open arms, and come they did, by the millions. It’s time for plan “B” but Merkel does not have one. This led Austria and Nine Balkan Countries Effectively Tell Merkel Go to Hel

EU Pledged to Relocate 160,000 Refugees in One Year - Results So Far, 147 in Three Months
More Refugee Math Up to 6,000 refugees pour into Greece every day. Merkel offered to help countries like Greece with pledge to relocate 160,000 refugees. Since September, the EU's relocation effort has moved precisely 147 refugees. By the way, 6,000 a day is 2,190,000 a year I said Merkel's relocation plan was idiotic the moment she hatched it, but I have to admit the results are far worse than even I expected.

Parks and Squares 4: Smaller Squares
I've been describing the basic elements of Traditional City design. They are: Streets (mostly Narrow Streets for People), Parks, and Squares. Parks and Squares should have names, which include the words "park" or "square." There isn't very much that doesn't fit into one of these categories. If you are designing something, shouldn't it really be one of these things? And if it isn't, why not? A lot of new design these days has a very large amount of somewhat aimless, disorganized space.
