OIL AND RUBLE VERSUS DOLLAR AND IDENTITY POLICTICS
RUSSIA HAS THROWN DOWN THE GAUNTLET. "YOU WANT OUR OIL? FINE. BUT PAY IN RUBLES". THE WEST ANSWERS, " WE HAVE THE DOLLAR BACKED BY IDENTITY POLITICS". RUSSIA ANSWERS, " ASK your MAINSTREAM MEDIA HOW CAN A CAR TANK BE FILLED USING THOSE NON STRTERS?".ONE DAY IN THE FUTURE RUSSIA MAY OFFER AN ALTERNATIVE. " DO YOU HAVE ANYTHING TO BARTER FOR OUR OIL? PLEASE DON'T OFFER YOUR ALLEDGED "VICTIMS OF RACISM OR XENOPHOBIA OR HOMOPHOBIA OR OTHER MEMBERS OF CENTRAL CASTING COVERED UNDER THE CIVIL RIGHTS ACT OF 1964 BECAUSE THEY WOULDN'T LIKE IT HERE AND WE DON'T WANT THEM".

Federal Reserve Fiat Money And Tissue Shortage.
The Fed announced this morning trillions of new money being printed to support the economy.We really don't have an "economy" we have a game of fiat money distorting reality. Economies live on skills and work. Fiat money nurtures fianciers. Rather nurture an economy . Rather give rodenticide to Wall Streeters. The fed printing presses have increased output to the point of exacerbating shortages in paper products which includes tissue paper.Finally filthy lucre works in a bartered society and a financial society. Truly fungible.This proves that paper is a better store of value than fiat money.

Barter Is Valuable Way Of Life
Oil is down. Ruble is down. Bitcoin is down. Aluminum is down. Coal is down. Copper is down. Junk bonds are down. Wages are stagnant. Healthcare costs are higher. Cost of living in dollars is higher.Regulations are higher. Politicians are not worth their salaries. War is more expensive and growing in use. You get the message. But barter is stable. Barter still returns on investment. No one shoots people who barter. BARTER AND LIVE FREE.

Eliminate Debt, Eliminate Politicians, Eliminate Unnecessary Wars, Eliminate Welfare And Political Correctness: Embrace Virtual Money Or Barter
Finally a way out of the mistakes of the past.How does one know mistakes have been made? Add up the personal , local ,state and federal debt. If the actions of the past were correct then there would be no debt to be burdened with. Both virtual money or barter would mitigate or eliminate legacy debt that we didn't sign up for. But our politicians assigned us.We can break this cycle by starting fresh. Let people with money pay off debt. People like Warren Buffett who is loathe at the mere mention of Bitcoin. Why? Because all the companies he has invested in have trillions of debt on the books. But the debt is denominated and payable in Central Bank currency. If the economy switches to barter or virtual money those debts become not payable. Same goes for debt from our government. People like Bush and Cheney ran up bills to finance illegal wars. Let them and others of the military-industrial complex pay off the government debt.Declare independence from legacy debt. Barter or use virtual currency in whatever form it morphs to.

Malaysia 370 And Bitcoins: Is There A Connection? Hijacking And Ransom Demand In Bitcoins
Malaysia Air Flight 370 has been missing for nine days. No trace. The more forensic facts come out the more they point to a well planned event. Particularly the fact about position-relaying electronic gear aboard the plane being turned off by hand. Could this be a kidnapping? How will the hijackers be paid? Bitcoins? Is there a connection between the Mt Gox bankruptcy because of a hacker or hackers looting the firm of nearly 500 million in stored Bitcoins and the planes disappearance and possible ransom demand of Bitcoins in payment? The kidnappers would benefit two ways. First their stash of one half billion in Bitcoins would appreciate because of this credible act of monetizing Bitcoins on a grand scale and also getting paid in an untraceable method.

Source of Chaos? :Technology & Fiat Money !
Ever wonder why life is getting more and more challenging? Maybe it's because new challenges come faster and are more complex then heretofore. Why is that? Well, technology has afforded more options of experimentation and implimentation. Many things are done because they can be done not because they should be done. And fiat money has made those options affordable. Any negative or unexpected results from these brave new world experiments is addressed by more fiat money and more evolutionary technology and so forth and so on....
Technology that is squared by fiat money equals chaos. Or , Technology multiplied by fiat money equals constant change which defines chaos. Simplify. Use less tools less and barter.
USE A TOOL ,LOSE YOUR PLACE.

Deflation: No More Price To Earnings Ratio
In the future there will be no equity markets as we know them today. Corporations will trade at book value or less.That's because money will be scarce. Consequently barter will be more efficient . Price to earnings ratio will vaporize. But it will be a much better enviornment to live ONCE we get there.

The Winning Society Will Be Tribal Based
America's society of a central government is expensive. From its never ending legislation comes endless litigation based on the lie that all are equal. That expensive and corrosive paradigm will fade away because its self defeating. It rewards politicians and attorneys more than the general population. But out of the heap of unnecessary politicians and lawyers will come a fragmented tribal based society that will prosper. The low cost producer of cohesion among members will be based on race or religion or some symbiotic common ground. Barter will take the place of money and further obviate any need for formal government. Money, together with its interest bearing feature, is non competitive compared to a barter system.

Greece, Democracy & Standard & Poors
Standard & Poors reduced the credit rating of Greece's debt. Greece came up with the idea of democracy. They have never lived within their budget since that ancient time. They only deferred the bills. Now S&P is calling them out on their failed social scheme. Look for more riots but only during the work week. The sons and daughters of democracies cherish their weekends.
We need a return to a work standard not a political standard.

Is Normal An Obsolete Word?
Things change so quickly that the word " normal" loses its meaning except when used to describe those same quick, never ending changes. Money contributes to the cause of our new "normal". There has never been more in circulation yet there is more poverty and more uncertainity. Money is too expensive. The strings attached to its use by the issuing governments are counterproductive and tend to enslave. Some of the strings include interest and taxes . Our government has never spent more yet it has never been held in lower regard.Barter is more efficient and puts the individual back in control.

Why Do We Need Banks?
Today Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke was pleading for more money. He said banks need more capital if the economy is to recover.
Why do we need banks? What's their value-added? Let them fail. They use other peoples assets and skim more than their fair share for themselves. So why not eliminate these bad managers and their stockholders who can't be trusted and let people be responsible for their own assets? I'm sure people can more carefully protect their assets than the over-paid predators that run our banks. Individuals can loan people money and collect interest just as easily as a bank can. And if they can't, then that's their own problem.
There is way too much financial linkage between people. By definition that linkage grows till it fails because of it's unwieldly size. Time for a new paradigm. I suggest a barter system. Let's get rid of the parasites like the greasers in government and Wall Street that script Bernanke's message.

"Driver Carries No Money"
A very few delivery trucks still carry the warning, " Driver Carries No Money". Maybe it's because the illegal immigrant criminals can't read or speak English. Or maybe the hoodlums went through the public school system and didn't bother to learn to read. But because there was no money available there were no losses.
Can we learn a lesson that applies to our politicians and their Congress? It's their Congress because they as a group get more out of government than we outside of government do. The latest legal crime that our politicians are facilitating is the Wall Street bailout. Here we have Wall Street jackals making money on the way up and keeping what they made as their broken schemes and maipulations are transferred to the tax payers on the way down.
The lesson is this. First character is fate. And since our politicians start with little or no admirable character traits we are facing certain disappointment. But add the bad character to the oppotunities presented for self advancement by handling and being part of a $ 3 trillion budget process and one can see how we keep digging deeper holes as government gets larger. There is a direct ratio. And so the app. $ 1 trillion bailout will be handled by printing more money. Money represents the collective character of the issuing nation. Our falling dollar signals what our trading partners think of our character.
What's to be done? How about printing this sign on the halls of Congress, " Politician Carries No Money Only Opinions. All Money Matters Are Left To Individuals"?

How To Build Personal Worth And Avoid Disappointment
Looks like Lehman Brothers will follow Bear Stearns into a shotgun merger. The buzz on Wall Street sounds like Merrill Lynch is next and then AIG and then Goldman Sachs and then.....
The effective tactic that turns these once blue chip stocks of the financial sector into a powdered form is the classic "bear raid". It's nothing new. It was around before the Crash of '29. It was used by Joe Kennedy and the very successful but suicide Jesse Livermore. Simply a group of speculators target a stock and then relentlessly sell it thus creating a panic in the financial markets till it spills over into the real world. And then it either goes bankrupt or is forced into an arranged merger. And members of the bear raid group profit from the collapse of the stock price . The "effective tactic" was the bear raid. But the fundamental reason that enabled the bear raid tactic to work was the questionable value of the underlying business of the targeted stock in the first place. It begs the question, "If these companies are so valuable, then how come they can be sold down so far?".
I.E. could a bear raid be successful if Wall Street operators tried to sell a $50.00 bag of groceries for $10.00? Or how successful could a manipulator be selling a gallon of gasoline for $1.50? Not successful because groceries and gasoline have intrinsic and recognizable value with a large market. Shares of Bear Stearns, Lehman, Merrill or whoever really when, push comes to shove, don't have intrinsic value. They operate on the "greater fool" theory. That's why the machinations of Wall Street bear raids acn be pulled off. Everyone kind of knows or suspects that Wall Street can't last .
If one is interested in building self worth and avoiding future disruptions then one should join with other like-minded, value-added individuals for a barter system . Then the group can freeze out grifters, politicians, Wall Street operators and all the other usual suspects.
