Note from Dick Eastman:
 
Any man who thinks that by burning the Koran that he will please God is of Satan.  True Christ like Islam opposes sin and Satan.
 
God's sheep hear his voice -- they will turn from evil and follow the Good Shepherd.  If Jesus Christ is the way then invite people to the way  -- but do not get a bulldozer and tear up the path he is currently walking on.  You do not save the world by killing all the "bad people."  You do not save a man by burning his home or burning the Holy Book that is his link to God.  The Christian is to speak the truth in love  -- not with gasoline and a match.
 
Come away from the false Christianity that woud teach a war against Islam.  Come away from the False Christianity that would have you do violence to what belongs to another man and destroy his Holy Book like the Jew bulldozes the Mosques and homes and orchards of the innocent people of Palestine.
 
I am a Mormon - and I know something of the history of the Mormon faith -- how they were burned out from state to state.  How the Book of Mormon was burned exactly as the Holy Koran is being burned today.  This is not a question of which religion is right or wrong -- it is a question of whether religion is put on earth so that men may murder and destroy to force men to submit or whether the Church has been instituted so that mean may fulfill the will of God by having the relationship he intended for us.
 
I ask those of you who have the wrong spirit to listen to these evangelists of the Word of God.

The Usury System is unclean.  Come out of it.
 
We are not bankrupt!  Usury is bankrupt!  Their system failed and we want the righteous system system of love and justice.

The usury system has failed to perform as claimed. It's time for the human population to forclose on the Rothschilds/Rockefellers, the Bank of England, the Fed and Goldman-Sachs  and open up treasures of heaven by surrendering to doing right by one another.

> The "stimulus" was a joke, far too little and now too late.
> This guy's implication that all stimulus' won't work is absurd.
 
 
Eastman Comment:
 
Yes,  It was too little, too late, but also
 
1)  too weighted down with interest and principal payback obligations - it all must be paid back with interest added on that necessarily is an amount (or flow) far greater than that of any profitability of investment from which repayment with  interest has to come and
 
2)  too  misdirected into the hands of the already money-bloated and ever constipated financial sector rather than to the household sector, thus ensuring depressed purchasing power for household demand for American output, thus ensuring no investment can be profitable  and thus that the stimuli in financier pockets will be spent abroad or on new wars or more criminal politicians who in turn will salt it away in Swiss bank accounts.
 
Doug French, in his article, "In Defense of Deflation," also wrote:
 
"But the problem is not that interest rates are so low everyone expects them to rise and therefore hoards cash. Banks refuse to lend because of the overhang of bad debt."
 
 
 
Eastman reply:  French overlooks the important and valid principle of economics that sunk costs are irrelevant to the question, "What should I do next?"  Because loans have gone bad and remain on the books, is not reason to not make good loans if entrepreneurs have found ventures promising sufficient return.  The real reason that banks don't lend is because entrepreneurs have no investment opportunities to show them because household purchasing power has been diminished by deflation.  Yes, deflation.  Bthe Fed is not inflating the purchasing power medium in circulation among households and domestic businesses, rather he is simply taking all government debt-financed stimuli and impounding them in the constipated financial sector -- which is using them for distressed asset aquisition but not for productive ventures that add to the economic pie and give people incomes with which to buy.

Dear Dr. French,
 
Deflation is as much repudiation of contract as is inflation, especially when deflationary policy comes from monetary authorities put in power by the superior legislature-buying power, judiciary-buying power, and academic-chair-buying power of creditor interests.

This article reveals a serious lack of understanding of the nature of the price-system.  It also seems to give credence to the claim that Austrian School policy is primarily to make the world safe for International Banking.  
 
Under the existing financial system the price-system is non- self-liquidating, that is it generates an increasingly larger flow of industrial financial costs and prices than financial incomes distributed and available to liquidate these costs in each same production accountancy cycle.  A widening "gap" is continuously created between financial costs and incomes that presently can only be supported by creation of increasingly un-repayable, accumulating debt, i.e., loans issued by the banking system.  These "bridging" loans are an exponentially increasing debt, which constitutes an increasingly unsupportable mortgage on the future.  All of this debt represents effort expended in the past, the benefits of which are robbed by the inflation of prices caused by this increasing creation of credit (debt) money by the banking system.  
 
Deflation is simply a contraction of lending activity by the banking system, precipitated  either deliberately or by accumulation of unsustainable debt obligations, which collapses prices making impossible the recovery and liquidation of old financial costs (debt) because the flow of money supply is restricted by reduced bank lending.  This leaves unliquidated financial costs  "hanging in mid-air" incapable of liquidation.  Bankruptcy ensues, and as Dr. French admits, a shift of ownership takes places--a shift that seems to concern him not at all.  This "shift" of ownership is a euphemism for foreclosure on the assets of the financially weak by the strong--an entirely unnecessary and contrived theft of previous effort and a centralization of ownership of productive assets.  It supports increasing monopoly of economic ownership and power, i.e., Bolshevism by stealth.  

The Fabian Socialists with whom Keynes was associated considered that the British were too stupid to make a revolution for themselves and it would have to be made for them by subterfuge.  That is what Keynesian "economics" does and obviously was designed to do.   The pump-priming was supposed to be periodic during recessionary times and reversed during inflationary times.  
 
What Keynes did not tell us is that without constant and increasing pump-priming by bank-issued debt the economy will always slip into a recession wherein former accumulated unliquidated costs can no longer be liquidated.  I think from the joint submissions to parliamentary financial enquiries, etc. made by both Keynes and Clifford Hugh Douglas (representing the Social Credit position), Keynes was well aware of this feature of the economic system. 

By providing extraneous consumer credits not as traditionally done by increasing consumer debt (which merely passes financial costs on as an inflationary charge to future cycles of production) Social Credit provides the means of liquidating the financial costs of production dynamically as goods emerge from the production line.  Under these circumstances the true physical efficiencies of modern physical capital (tools and methods) will result as they should in a continuous fall of prices which will be a general benefit to all citizens.  Unlike under orthodox "economics"  (more appropriately, "black magic") this fall of prices will be realized in a manner that allows the full liquidation of production costs and continued prosperity with increased leisure.  Inflation and deflation under the existing financial regime are part of a confiscatory policy that robs the consumer of the benefits of lower prices which should naturally follow increased productive technology and of a prosperity wherein increasing leisure is a natural benefit of a properly functioning economic-financial system.    Social Credit wants to make the world safe for ordinary citizens.  Incidentally, the purpose of production is consumption--not to create more jobs, i.e., "work" as communists and fascists advocate.  The more efficient is production (that is the elimination of the need for human input into the production process) the better.  Relying solely on earned income to distribute the products of modern automating production is irrational and immoral, not to mention mathematically impossible, and can only lead to increasingly insoluble financial, economic and social problems.

Subject: About that absurd article by Dr French....


Don't even waste your time responding to these  [Austrian school economists]    .

Just as the Federal Reserve Bank is neither Federal, has no reserves, and is not a bank, so does the Austrian bunch parallel it: it is not in Austria, it is without a proper academy, and it has nothing to do w/economics as such, only the pursuit of the ideology of its first  preacher.

Stephen Zarlenga, whose magisterial work "The Lost Science of Money" absolutely flattens these know-nothings, offered to meet them in public debate, but no one will accept his invitation to a beheading. On the other hand, if you read the same magnum opus --which, by the way, has hundreds of amazing illustrations and references that will delight you!-- you will quickly find that Stephen's decades of research supports all your thinking and insights. I have the First Edition; a Second has been published and can be ordered from any bookstore. Look at his website:
www.monetary.org, and don't miss his essay, "Why AMI considers the Austrian School as monetarily illiterate and not having done their homework: A Refutation of Menger's Theory of the Origin of Money".

Lest you fear that I've succumbed to argumentum ad homineum, let me assure you I have not. Rather, I detest ignorance when it assumes authoritas neither conferred upon it nor earned.  For, as Goethe so wonderfully remarked, "There is nothing more frightening than ignorance in action!"

But, as I wrote above, these [Austrians] cannot admit their ignorance, so they distract us by their noisy antics. Ignore them.

Jim Willie is a gold dealer and speculator.  While never offering a solution other than "buy gold," he is an observer who can spot and expose financial scams, bluffs, sweepings under the rug and impending doom.  Willie's only shortcoming is that he blames fiat money instead of blaming usury.
 
For example, see how wonderfully Willie makes his diagnosis -- almost perfect --  until he, at the every end, pins the blame for everything on fiat currency rather than the usury system, rather than on the Money Power monopoly of credit and of Fed open market operations (buying and selling securities in a closed market with the market-making international banking houses.)  He puts forth gold as a solution to fiat money, when the real solution is Social Credit and no-debt-treasury fiat replacing debt-slavery.  The dirty secret, Willie may or may not realize,  is that the gold standard is the ultimate engine of deflation, the ultimate possession of intrinsic interest due to the deflation it forces, a debt which grows and  for which others must slave without every buying their freedom.   (People miss this because gold doesn't earn interest.  However, it does, when the money supply is tied to gold and credit to gold reserves, lead to continuing deflation -- which in the end is exactly the same thing.  The debtor owes more over time  -- regardless of interest on the loan.  Just own gold -- and you don't have to be a lender to make money over time.   Deflation slavery of debtors is the same as interest slavery of debtors -- a constant defrauding of the entrepreneur, the engineer, the skilled workman and the families they support.
 
See what I am talking about.   Willie writes:
 

The leverage and the makeup of the structured finance schemes devised by Wall Street and the Big US Banks is unraveling. As it does so, the deep fraud is exposed. As it does so, the ruinous construction of finance engineers is exposed. As it does, the vulnerable heart & soul of fiat currency systems is exposed. As it does, the uncontrollable growth of debt originating from the Untied States is exposed. As it does, the path to the USTreasury default is exposed. As it does, the only legitimate financial asset in a paper-driven world is exposed, GOLD. As the Wall Street and Big US Banks are recognized as dead defunct charred ruins of financial firms, whose main source of liquidity funds is naked shorting, the blatant unprosecuted counterfeit of both USTreasurys and USAgency Mortgage Bonds, the ruined condition of bonds is exposed. They are the primary instruments for the fiat currency system. As it does, the only legitimate financial asset is exposed, GOLD. Money today is no different from denominated debt coupons. GOLD IS MONEY AND ALWAYS HAS BEEN MONEY, AS JOHN PIERPOINT MORGAN ONCE SAID.

 
Yes, Jim Willie is obviously smarter than all of us -- but so is Lawrance Summers.  Willie's business is gold and obviously he tells us what we want to hear -- up to a point -- and then baits and switches when it comes to the solution.
 
Now that we understand where he wants to lead us astray -- that his golden calf does not lead us to the promised land -- let's take in what knowledge we can from Jim Willies dazzling discernment with respect to the current incredibly bad situation. 
 

 

 
Excerpts from Willie's  most recent letter to gold investors: http://news.goldseek.com/GoldenJackass/1281556800.php
 
 
Wall Street and the Big US Banks are dead. No amount of Financial Accounting Standards Board rule changes can overrule the fact that they are grossly insolvent, and worsening by the month. The housing bust and mortgage debacle killed them. Many new profit or basic elite welfare programs are channeled into executive bonuses and excess cash reserves held at the US Federal Reserve, which is also insolvent, yet another major iconic zombie. Check their balance sheet for mortgage bonds worth half their value listed on the books. The lead dogs in the financial sector cannot have access to their cash, desperately needed and absconded by the USFed. They must lean heavily on devices that provide cash. Their bond issuance business has dried up, amidst deep fraud allegations. Their stock initial public offering business has dried up, in collateral damage to integrity. Their credit derivative business is thriving, not coincidentally since it is unregulated. Even their hedge fund business is shriveling up, a strange byproduct of Wall Street targeting and leverage backlash. Their flash trading business is intriguing, hardly a sign of free market efficiency, with bizarre outcome of a grand incestuous poker game limited to those holding Wall Street business cards. So Wall Street and the Big US Banks are dead. Do not count them out just yet! They have found a clever way to provide vast sums of liquidity, aided by the blind eye of USFed Chairman Bernanke. They sell that which they do not own, relying upon collusion at the top.

 

NAKED SHORTING WITH FAILURE TO DELIVER

In the Smoking Gun article, the main accusation was cited as widespread counterfeit and hiding vast funds. The sale of USTreasury Bonds in the last two years has exceeded the USGovt debt issuance by $1.5 trillion. It was asked "Where did the money go?" But the more important questions are:

Ø       What telltale evidence exists to shed light on the counterfeit?  (Failures to Deliver)

Ø       Where else is excessive sale of USGovt sponsored securities?  (USAgency Bonds)

 

The answers are easy. The implications are great. The impunity is disturbing. The signs of systemic breakdown are diverse. The road to perdition is clear. The path to a USTreasury default is far more obvious with each passing month. The denial is thick. The mortgage bond fraud, whose climax failure in 2008 was quite visible, went unprosecuted. So Wall Street and the Big US Banks are dead. The kings are dead, but the theft has not ended. A new blatant form of fraud has entered the room. Silence is deafening from the entire cast of enforcers, who have one element in common, a Goldman Sachs pedigree. The impish clowns sitting on the helm at the USFed oversee the fraud. They have often stated their primary objective to aid in the promotion of liquidity to the big banks. Naked short sales of USTreasurys and USAgency Mortgage Bonds accomplishes the mission. Yet another Mission Accomplished on a sordid trail in recent US financial snakepit and cesspool run by a den of thieves.

 

---

 The grand fraud in progress using USGovt debt securities.

 

The glaring actions continue without any hint of legal prosecution but deep foreign resentment among creditors as publicity mounts. Nobody appreciates counterfeit of the instruments held in great volume as supposed savings. The only counterfeit of honorable origin is of Microsoft products, since mostly stolen and surely not the output of in-house innovation. The problem is more diverse than just a JPMorgan bond fraud issue. Sure, the venerable colossus and syndicate titan sold more than $2 trillion in USTreasurys than were issued in the 1990 decade. Records used to be found in the penthouse business offices at Cantor Fitzgerald in South Manhattan. A database migration to New Jersey surely involves a great deal of deletions. The problem goes far beyond the giant bank, which gobbled numerous other banks in the course of its cancerous reign, to become an appendage of the USGovt today. See Chase Manhattan, Chemical Bank, Manufacturers Hanover, and Bank One. Any competent student of financial economics can see that such merger is part & parcel of the Fascist Business Model, with climax merged union with the state, and side effect of criminal impunity that permits deep fraud in numerous markets like silver. JPMorgan cannot be fixed by the process any more realistically than an angry man with a vengeful heart can carve out his own cardiac pump in order to enjoy a better day. Thus no solution exists.

 

The problem in very recent history traces back to the September and October months of 2008, when Wall Street investment banks and the US banking system died. These banks have not and will not recover, since they died. Some deaths were obvious, but others remain well hidden. The big banks do not lend money since they are dead, the dirty little secret. Their insolvency is easy to prove, but obscured by altered accounting rules put in place on April 1st 2009. They include generous rules that permit a dead entity to declare itself alive by filing a false accounting report, valuing their own assets at whatever suits their needs. Generally, insolvency plus illiquidity will force bankruptcy. But Wall Street and the Big US Banks use naked shorting of USGovt-backed bonds to produce urgently needed liquidity. All the extreme efforts to revive the US banks are futile. Imagine numerous transfusions of a dead man in the Emergency Room of a hospital, as more blood does not guarantee a resuscitation. More wires and tubes don't mean squat, since the guy has croaked and his corpse is rotting with a stench spreading into the corridors. The dirty secret, protected from the US public, is that the man died. So Wall Street and the Big US Banks are dead. By withholding the reality, a storm of funding programs has been approved by the USGovt, mostly directed at Wall Street and the Big US Banks. They urgently need liquidity, and are creative how they obtain it.

 

A near total shun of the crooked investment banks Main Street and the states has taken place. The private sector investment community does not float new bonds when lawsuits cases are in progress! Sure, the last Stimulus Plan sent many billion$ to the states to plug budget shortfalls. And sure, another $26 billion pittance was approved today for states in a second plug. Somehow the thought of tossing a $1 bill into a tin cup for a street beggar comes to mind, except the beggar is a former well-placed skilled industry employee, now painfully displaced. The states need several hundred billion$, or better yet, they need to redirect the vast funds sent to WashingtonDC and keep them at home, where they would not be wasted or pilfered or sent to battle overseas.

 

Failures to Deliver on both types of USGovt-backed bonds are staggering. When a trade takes place, usually two to three days are permitted before the stock or bond must be delivered, so as to complete the trade, and to settle the funds transfer among parties. A year ago, vast sums of USTreasury Bonds were the subject of debate and dispute as the volume of Failures to Deliver was staggering in the months following the autumn 2008. Blame was given to the disorder that ensued from the Lehman Brothers failure, the AIG breakdown, and the Fannie Mae nationalization. No such convenient event can be blamed on the present-day Failures to Deliver. They continue for USTreasurys, and explain well the superfluous $1.5 trillion. They precede the return launch of the QE2, the Quantitative Easing. Suddenly, delivery of bonds might be made easier as the USGovt floods the bond market with new issuance covered in cost by the Printing Pre$$, which USFed Chairman Bernanke claims can be operated at zero cost. The actual cost is the ruin of the USDollar image and the ruin of the USTreasury prestige.

 

. . . 

 

What would be the motive for naked short selling of USTreasurys in such volume? Sure, simple greed is always in the mix. Worse, Wall Street lacks legitimate business volume from which to earn profits. So Wall Street and the Big US Banks are dead. Imagine a dark storefront that used to have a bustle of business and constant flow of customers. Not Wall Street, no more. The dark storefront conceals a vast counterfeit operation inside. They sell debt securities under the cover of darkness, out the back door, and rake in great sums of money. When demanded to produce the USTreasurys, they refuse, they delay, or they defy, since they cannot deliver. Thus, the Failures to Deliver. This explains the ready cash flow of liquidity to the Wall Street banks without much investment banking business. This explains the 90 consecutive days without trading loss for the lead dogs in the corrupt sled. This explains how dead zombie banks continue to operate. So Wall Street and the Big US Banks are dead.

 

DEBT MATURITY & RESALE, NOT THE EXPLANATION

Word is getting out. The excess is NOT explained by USTreasury maturity, expiration, and re-sale, as some analysts claim without doing proper research. Many people offer this simplistic explanation, but it is not correct. Mature rollover of debt is clearly labeled as such, not to be confused with utter counterfeit from naked short sales. The excess USTreasury sale (over and above USGovt deficits) is largely from naked shorting, marked by known Failure to Deliver. This explains how Wall Street and Big US Banks keep their liquidity flowing. These big banks are dead zombies bereft of income, so they counterfeit a source of income. The big banks (including investment banks) have seen a huge decline in IPOs, Bond issuance, and their lending business is way down also, seen in the credit data. They have a big source of income in the USTreasury Carry Trade, buying long, selling short. They have been parking those profits in the USFed, earning interest as Excess Reserves. These points require repeating so as to sink in. Legitimate income is not available.

 

A Failure to Deliver occurs when the selling party cannot locate the bond, cannot find the bond, or it does not exist. More USTreasurys have been sold than float in existence. Worse, more USAgency Mortgage Bonds have been sold than float in existence. The Wall Street and Big US Banks are engaged in basic counterfeit, sale of that which they do not own, much like selling the Brooklyn Bridge. Some prefer to think the best, that debt is maturing and re-sold. No so! That is naive! The same goes on with the USAgency Mortgage Bonds.

 

New Issuance of USTreasurys, as the label implies, is new and not old. Many people have some confusion over what New means, which means fresh new securitizations. Rollover of old expiring maturing debt is totally different. The USGovt finance ministry calls it Rollover of Mature Debt Securities, or some such. Anyone who follows the auctions can easily comprehend the names of auctioned securities. In a typical auction, the USDept Treasury might say "$12 billion in New Issuance plus $4 billion in Rollover of Mature Debt securities." There are dozens of examples to detect with a minimum of research. These types of USTreasury products are utterly basic and the names are plain so that common folk can comprehend.

 

My friend and colleague, and partner in comic relief via telephone, is Rob Kirby. He is a former professional bond broker and credit derivative trader in Toronto. He knows that which he speaks. His opinion was sought, which appears liberally on his website (www.KirbyAnalytics.com). His analysis is thorough and highly reliable. Mr Kirby agreed with me and my claims of naked bond shorting, as he provided a thorough response that should settle any dispute. He wrote:

"When bond issues are announced they are all referred to as New Issuance in that they immediately (before they are auctioned) begin trading on a WI (when issued basis). But when the Government / Treasury states they issued $1.25 Trillion in New Debt securities, they are talking about an increase to aggregate outstanding, which would not include a boatload of expired debt that Rolled or replaced newly issued bonds or T-Bills. To perhaps make that a bit clearer. When the government announces they are going to issue $1.25 billion in new 5-year bonds, even if they are reopening an existing 5-year issue with a known coupon, they immediately begin trading on yield as opposed to existing bonds which trade on PRICE, as in discount or premium to par. / Rob"

 

SECOND SMOKING GUN WITH FANNIE MAE BONDS

They are known by many names. They are called Govt Sponsored Enterprise Bonds (GSE Bonds), or Fannie Mae Bonds, or Agency Bonds. My preference is to call them USAgency Mortgage Bonds, since they are backed by the full deceit, dishonesty, corruption, collusion, and cloud cover of the United States Government. My claim has been consistent, that Fannie Mae is the crime scene for trillion$ in past theft, with probable dirty hands on past presidents, and that Fannie Mae is the principal clearinghouse for numerous fraud schemes in progress under the USGovt roof. Naked shorting has gone out of control with Mortgage Bonds. A fresh Bloomberg article has brought the counterfeit events to the fore, maybe even painted on a billboard. But the billboard has few lights, and might have been pushed onto a backstreet instead of a main avenue.

 

Naked shorting explains well the extremely high volume of mortgage bonds, including the Failures to Deliver. Wall Street and the Big US Banks are staying afloat from naked shorting, a form of counterfeit, in order to survive. They lack liquidity. The must sell something. Corporations, municipalities, and other entities observe the Wall Street criminal behavior, their conflict of interest, their trades positioned in opposition to clients, and have lost trust. The Wall Street community activity centered upon naked short sales of USAgency Mortgage Bonds complements their naked shorting of USTreasurys. So Wall Street and the Big US Banks are dead. The USTreasurys are the prima facie in the case to be brought for large scale fraud, sufficient for indictment. The USAgency Mortgage Bonds are the second part to the story, worthy of important support toward conviction. The difficulty of executing transactions tarnishes, pollutes, and contaminates the image of the $5.2 trillion mortgage bond securities market, which is the most liquid behind USTreasurys. That is precisely why the Fannie Mae bonds can be counterfeited so easily. With heavy volume comes heavy cover for fraud. The same is true of $100 bills counterfeited by the Central Intelligence Agency, to keep America strong.

 

In the aftermath of the USFed's $1.25 trillion of mortgage bond purchases over the last 18 months, they have exposed the market as broken. After acquiring about one quarter of home loan bonds with USGovt-backed guarantees to buttress the housing prices against the threat of freefall, to save the mortgage bond market from outright freefall, and to build a vast queer safety net for the USEconomy, the USFed made some securities too hard to find. In essence, the USFed exposed the vast fraud by Wall Street and the Big US Banks by scooping up the objects of their counterfeit.

 

Caroline Salas and Jody Shenn started off in their Bloomberg article with a powerful salvo. They wrote, "For all the good the Federal Reserve's $1.25 trillion of mortgage bond purchases have done, they have also left part of the market broken. By acquiring about a quarter of home loan bonds with government backed guarantees to bolster housing prices and the US economy, the Fed helped make some securities so hard to find that Wall Street has been unable to complete an unprecedented amount of trades. Failures to deliver or receive mortgage debt totaled $1.34 trillion in the week ended July 21, compared with a weekly average of $150 billion in the five years through 2009." The last sentence should be read two or three times. It is a smoking gun of USAgency Mortgage Bond fraud, not so much of monetization. In fact, the fraud is the obverse side of the coin whose face features blatant bond monetization. The US financial coin has monetization on its face and bond fraud on the obverse, the rotten output of a fiat currency system in its final phase.

 

Thomas Wipf chairs an industry group that is trying to address the problem, which is hardly a secret. The fraud is in the open, but not discussed EVER in the financial press or on the air of financial networks. Wipf is chairman of the Treasury Market Practices Group and the head of a bond group at Morgan Stanley. He is concerned about exacerbated damage caused by the collapse of a bank or fund. Translate that concern, as Wipf is worried about exposure of massive bond fraud by Wall Street and Big US Banks during a routine bank failure. Wipf said, "You are adding systemic risk into the market. Investors are taking on counter-party risk in trades they did not intend to take on." In other words, investors are being defrauded and could retaliate if powerful enough. Numerous other bank and bond analysts are hot on this story, but they either refuse to state the obvious or they are not permitted to state the obvious. Maybe after years of operating within the snake pit, they cannot perceive the obvious. Wall Street and the Big US Banks are dead, and are using magnificent naked shorting of USGovt-backed bond securities to remain alive. They know well that the USDept Treasury, the Securities & Exchange Commission, and the Office of the Comptroller of Currency will do nothing. They are dominated and controlled by Goldman Sachs, each head holding a GSax pedigree, and thus no prosecution for grand bond fraud will ever happen. In fact, some research might expose that Goldman Sachs could be the greatest offender of them all in this grotesque naked shorting game. They were a primary player in the last bond fraud scheme, the packaging and sale of mortgage backed securities. This is a natural extension within their field of expertise, their realm of dominance.

 

The Bloomberg authors Salas and Shenn point out the ripple effect, the daisy chain of unsettled trades that occurs when a broker dealer acting as a buyer in one transaction fails to deliver those bonds as a seller in another. Even Moodys Investors Service is on the crime scene, but not likely to speak truthfully, accurately, or boldly. Senior analyst Alexander Yavorsky at Moodys is concerned about the drag on the mortgage bond business, when he should be more concerned about massive fraud within the business. Obviously, if reduced liquidity in the mortgage bond market persists and causes investors to seek other assets, the consequent effect would run counter to the USFed's goal of buoying demand for the securities. The official program (dubbed QE1) began in January 2009 and officially ended in March. Fraud usually undermines, hinders, and ruins securities markets. But in the Untied States of America, such bond fraud is sanctioned and protected by the regulators, by the central bankers, and by the finance ministries. If truth be known, Wall Street and the Big US Banks are dead. Authors Salas and Shenn had better be careful, or they will lose their jobs for the horrible exposure. Their editorial managers probably have told them to shut the hell up already, after receiving a phone call from the Wall Street control tower. See the Bloomberg article before it is pulled by order of the USGovt (CLICK HERE). It is entitled "Fed Finding No Good Deed Goes Unpunished With Mortgage Bond Trades Failing" and is an eye-popper.

 

Friend and colleague Aaron Krowne is the owner and editor of the Mortgage Lender Implode website (CLICK HERE). He is an astute bank analyst with a keen alternative viewpoint. He wrote in an email, "Looks like a side effect of the USFed's massive mortgage buying is causing the 'tide to go out' on this market, revealing massive manipulation, or at least, incredibly unsound synthetic derivatives trading on these major fixed income bonds." Wall Street built countless leveraged and artificial bonded securities, mostly atop shifting sands. A great unraveling is in progress, and so is a great awakening in progress.

 

. . .

 

The leverage and the makeup of the structured finance schemes devised by Wall Street and the Big US Banks is unraveling. As it does so, the deep fraud is exposed. As it does so, the ruinous construction of finance engineers is exposed. As it does, the vulnerable heart & soul of . . .  systems is exposed. As it does, the uncontrollable growth of debt originating from the Untied States is exposed. As it does, the path to the USTreasury default is exposed.  . . . . As the Wall Street and Big US Banks are recognized as dead defunct charred ruins of financial firms, whose main source of liquidity funds is naked shorting, the blatant unprosecuted counterfeit of both USTreasurys and USAgency Mortgage Bonds, the ruined condition of bonds is exposed.

In Defense of Deflation

 
by Doug French

Mises Daily: Tuesday, August 10, 2010 by  , president of The Mises Institute

 
 
The Obama stimulus and bailouts haven't decreased unemployment rates or bankruptcy filings while home prices and home sales have fallen and can't get up. PIMCO's Bill Gross told Bloomberg this can all be fixed with nearly zero interest rates and additional debt to stimulate the animal spirits of investors and entrepreneurs. The federal-funds rate has been pegged at 0 to .25% since December 16, 2008, and Uncle Sam's debt is $13.3 trillion and counting. If this hasn't goosed the animal spirits, what will?

The failure of central bankers to make things all better again by creating some money and lowering some interest rates has the financial press fretting about deflation and thinking the US economy is turning Japanese. James Bullard, who heads the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis, came out with a paper entitled "Seven Faces of 'The Peril'." He concludes that the Federal Open Market Committee's (FOMC's) "extended period language may be increasing the probability of a Japanese-style outcome for the U.S." To avoid that outcome, Bullard argues that the Fed's most important tool is quantitative easing — printing money to buy government debt.

The Wall Street Journal's James B. Stewart claims deflation is bad because "deflation erodes profits and asset values," in his "Smartmoney" column.

People wait to buy expecting lower prices, reducing demand. Lower profits cause companies to cut expenses, including employees. It is a downward spiral that, if Japan's experience is any indication, is difficult to arrest.

Mr. Stewart is wrong on all counts. Profits are the difference between the price we sell a good for and the price it costs to produce that good. As Jörg Guido Hülsmann makes clear in his book Deflation & Liberty, "In a deflation, both sets of prices drop, and as a consequence for-profit production can go on."

And while asset values may drop, the assets don't go away. The real wealth of the nation — assets used for production — are still available to produce. However, it may be that because the debt is liquidated on those assets as prices fall, new owners will own and operate the assets, but commerce and production will certainly carry on.

Lower prices increase demand; they do not reduce or delay it. That's why more and more people own flat-screen TVs, cellular telephones, and laptop computers: the prices of these goods have fallen, and people with lower incomes can afford them. And there are more low-income people than high-income people.

Lower prices don't mean lower profits; nor do they mean that employees will be laid off. More demand for a good or service means more employees needed to produce those goods and services. "There is no reason why inflation should ever reduce rather than increase unemployment," Hülsmann writes.

People become unemployed or remain unemployed when they do not wish to work, or if they are forcibly prevented from working for the wage rate an employer is willing to pay. Inflation does not change this fact.

Hülsmann goes on to point out that only if workers underestimate the amount of money created by the central bank and therefore reduce their real wage-rate demands will unemployment be reduced. "All plans to reduce unemployment through inflation therefore boil down to fooling the workers — a childish strategy, to say the least."

Of course, Mr. Bullard over at the St. Louis Fed doesn't mention anything in his paper about individuals attaining their goals through subjective knowledge and pricing decisions. Instead he draws lots of lines on graphs and talks about Taylor-type policy rule, zero bound, the Fisher relation, "targeted" steady states, and lots of stuff that has nothing to do with economics.

So while the bond-buying Mr. Gross says zero rates will arouse the animal spirits in all of us, Mr. Bullard worries that "promising to remain at zero for a long time is a double-edged sword." Bullard writes that zero rates are "consistent with the idea that inflation and inflation expectations should rise in response to [that] promise." But in the same paragraph he continues,

But the policy is also consistent with the idea that inflation and inflation expectations will instead fall, and that the economy will settle in the neighborhood of the unintended steady state, as Japan has in recent years.

Wow, no wonder Keynesian central banking is so hard. You're damned if you cut rates and damned if you don't. "I moved the line on the graph. Let's see some animal spirits for crying out loud!"

In the real world, banks aren't lending because, as Murray Rothbard points out in America's Great Depression, if rates are too low, bankers have no incentive to lend, especially in a risky economic environment. Also, as Professor Jeffrey Herbener wrote in the Asian Wall Street Journal, "with distressed banks, reflation fails to induce another bank credit expansion."

Keynesians have mistaken the impotency of the Bank of Japan to restart credit expansion in the 1990s as a liquidity trap. But the problem is not that interest rates are so low everyone expects them to rise and therefore hoards cash. Banks refuse to lend because of the overhang of bad debt. Any cash infusion is held as reserve against it. Businesses refuse to borrow because of their debt burden, built up to expand capacity during the boom, and their over-capacity resulting from their malinvestments.

Japan has tried every stimulus trick in the book — in addition to holding rates at zero — and still its economy has been in a funk for two decades. But firing a worker in Japan is virtually forbidden and don't get the idea that consumer prices have fallen through the floor. According to the International Monetary Fund (IMF), last year saw the biggest drop in consumer prices at 1.13%, after prices rose 1.4% the year before. The chart of Japan's inflation rate is essentially flat. Not exactly the deadly deflationary spiral it's made out to be.

Hülsmann explains that the Japanese government hasn't allowed deflation to heal their economy, with "the only result of this policy [being] to give a zombie life to the hopelessly bureaucratic and bankrupt conglomerates that control Japanese industry, banking and politics."

As for Bullard's quantitative-easing (QE) idea, the Bank of Japan has done plenty of it, buying not only government bonds but corporate debt and stocks as well. Bullard's colleagues over at the San Francisco Fed have studied whether it worked. In a 2006 report, Vice President Mark M. Spiegel wrote that QE lowered long-term interest rates and "there appears to be evidence that the program aided weaker Japanese banks and generally encouraged greater risk-tolerance in the Japanese financial system."

Spiegel concluded, "In strengthening the performance of the weakest Japanese banks, quantitative easing may have had the undesired impact of delaying structural reform."

"Deflation is one of the great scarecrows of present day economic policy and monetary policy in particular," Hülsmann told his Economics of Deflation class at this year's Mises University. It seems a nation will destroy its finances battling the nonthreat. The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) says the Bank of Japan "needs to keep interest rates close to zero and continue its asset-purchase program until there is a 'definitive' end to deflation," Bloomberg reports. But in the same report the OECD worried that the Bank of Japan's ability to stimulate would be curtailed by Japan's public-debt-to-GDP ratio approaching 200%.

Sounds like the folks at the OECD, like Mr. Bullard, can't make up their minds. What Austrians know for sure is that, as Professor Hülsmann makes clear, "the dangers of deflation are chimerical, but its charms are very real." Inflation, on the other hand, only helps those who are massively indebted and inefficient — governments.

Obama's father was born in 1936.  But hear Obama say his father served in World War II which ended in 1946. Note how easily he lies.  No tells of stress.  He is completely desensitized to lying. Such desensitization only comes from a life of deception.  Watch:      http://the-raw-deal.com/?p=2968

Aug 16, 2010)   mothers lament that their daughters now see "empowerment"  in terms of prostitution skills
 
by Henry Makow Ph.D.


While the feminist
mothers saw power as financial independence and rejected female "objectification," their daughters accept the pornographic message of pop music and advertising. In the words of one mom, they "believe their purpose in life is to be sexual beings who please men."

"A blow job is like shaking hands," said another mom.  "Their attitude is: 'We're emancipated, we're liberated, we're in control. They see [it] as power; I see it as giving their power away."

Yes but: 
Who taught girls they could have sex outside of courtship, love and marriage?

Feminists did.
Feminism brainwashed young women to see husbands as oppressors and family as bondage. There was no longer any reason to restrict sex to love and marriage. 

Understandably, feminists don't want to admit their teachers have betrayed them. Feminism was created by elite social engineers to reduce population and undermine marriage and family.

Even while they wring their hands, feminists are blinded by their ideology. (The article veers off into a discussion of how feminism is still relevant.) 

The words "love," "marriage," "husband" and "family" do not appear  in the article. No wonder they can't understand the problem and what to do about it.

Both mothers and daughters are victims of deliberate social subversion. A woman's career used to be wife and mother. She consecrated her sexuality for the man she loved, the father of her children, her protector and provider.

Young women today are up a creek. They don't know how to be women and men don't know how to be men. But one thing that hasn't changed is - men don't marry sluts.  These girls are going to be left high and dry once their sex appeal has faded.

They obsess on looking beautiful but don't know that true beauty comes from within, from a spiritual purity. This means rejecting all coarse influences and behavior. It means focusing on what is good, true, human and inspiring. 

In the past, men had to prove their love and commitment before they could have sex.  As a result, women were cherished and given a lifelong role (mother, wife) that satisfied their deepest emotional needs.

Now they have been reduced to amateur prostitutes and corporate widgets.

"I don't meet many girls who feel good about themselves, even though they are totally gorgeous," one social worker says.

How could they ... giving their bodies to strangers who dump them? 

Girls figure they must give away sex or boys will get it from other girls. That's like saying, "if I don't let muggers rob and beat me, other girls will."

The other word totally absent from this article is "father."  Girls could get love,
self respect and guidance from their fathers. But I'm guessing their feminist mothers drove their fathers away. 

It's not too late for girls to learn to be women again. There can be no sex without courtship and love. If other girls want to give it away, let them suffer the consequences. 

Girls can become feminine again by making marriage and family their first priority. If they refocus, they can regain the path to fulfillment and happiness.

The Mormon prophet David O. McKay (1873–1970) quoted Charles Jefferson, who wrote: "The only thing which places a man above the beasts of the field is his possession of the spiritual gifts. … Man's earthly existence is but a test as to whether he will concentrate his efforts, his mind, and his soul upon the things which contribute to the comfort and gratification of his physical instincts and passions, or whether he will make as his life's end and purpose the acquisition of spiritual qualities."
 
 President George Q. Cannon (1827–1901) stated: "If any of us are imperfect, it is our duty to pray for the gift that will make us perfect. … No man ought to say, 'Oh, I cannot help this; it is my nature.' He is not justified in it, for the reason that God has promised to give strength to correct these things, and to give gifts that will eradicate them."
 

In Matthew 25 [Matt. 25] He states:

"For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in:

"Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me. …

"… Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me" (Matt. 25:35–36, 40).

The Savior taught that in the last days there would be many unholy and unrighteous people who would seek to deceive, using false gifts. He warned, "Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves" (3 Ne. 14:15; see also Matt. 7:15). He taught us how to know which gifts are of God and which are of the adversary: "Ye shall know them by their fruits" (3 Ne. 14:16; see also Matt. 7:16). "The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance" (Gal. 5:22–23).

President Gordon B. Hinckley taught: "You recognize the promptings of the Spirit by the fruits of the Spirit—that which enlighteneth, that which buildeth up, that which is positive and affirmative and uplifting and leads us to better thoughts and better words and better deeds is of the Spirit of God. That which tears us down, which leads us into forbidden paths—that is of the adversary. … How do we recognize the promptings of the Spirit? You put it to that test. If it invites to do good, it is of God. If it inviteth to do evil, it is of the devil. … If you are doing the right thing and if you are living the right way, you will know in your heart what the Spirit is saying to you." 4 How comforting it is to have a living prophet.
