Federal Reserve: Solitaire Monetary Policy

This morning the Federal Reserve announced a clearance sale on all fiat money that it has left. It will only be limited to how fast the transaction can be completed. By the looks of it a contra party signature may not be required nor any one to sign for the delivery of money in spite of even Amazon's requirement on some Prime Accounts transactions. The money is coming with sirens and it will go through red lights. Actually that's not new. The Modern Monetary Theory has been ignoring economic red lights for some time.Heard of the Modern Monetary Theory? It's distinction is that deficits don't matter and fiscal discipline is cast aside. The Fed spawned the Modern Monetary Theory by it's quantitive easing after financial meltdown in 2008.The Fed created the bubble that now has collapsed and the Fed is trying to reflate with yet another QE. Simply. We do not have an economy in the traditional meaning. We have an economy based on Federal manipulation using fiat money. Our economy is now tied to a federal reserve game of solitaire that it cheats at. The fed claims to be independent of congress. That's another way of describing the fed as outside legal jurisdiction. That's a convenience enjoyed by congress itself. The fed covers up bad congressional policies by just printing more money.Congress and the fed do the devils work.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: Hillary Clinton's Village Idiot

In 1996 Hillary Clinton wrote a book titled "It Takes A Village".In 1989 Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was born and was reading by 1996.Clinton's book was largely about what adults can learn from children. A.O.C. could have read the book and planned a life around the premise of children instructing adults. So, did Hillary's "village" socialistic-collective philosophy create the village idiot Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez? Or was Hillary already the proto-idiot? Actually the term "village idiot " traces back to Byzantine times-circa 500 A.D.. So we will probably always have idiots. Only thing different is some call themselves politicians.And that's why we will always have constructively a Second Amendment.

Pelosi: Cosmetic Surgery Distraction

Recently Speaker of The House Nancy Pelosi during a press conference exhibited the downside of cosmetic surgery on her face. No doubt the procedure was costly but the face lift tweek gave out conflicting communicative language.That's not supposed to happen. It reminded me of watching a foreign film with subtitles. Explicitly, the lower half of her face spoke words of varying importance and subjects but the upper half of her face seemed disconnected from the emotional content of the lower face.So it presented in total the spector of a foreign language film with subtitles that in total garbled the presentation. Actually it's kind of appropriate. Pelosi who is the quintessential store bought politician gets a store bought character behind a store bought mask.

BLOCKCHAIN TECHNOLOGY & GOVERNMENT TRANSPARENCY

I think it's a given that all politicians lie.They are not unlike all humans who also lie from time to time.But positions of great power should be held to a higher degree of honesty and accuracy. To that goal when any politician speaks, the utterance should be recorded in a blockchain format.A recent example would be "The Mueller Report". Congress spent $40 million and countless hours investigating Trump and possible election tampering collusions with Russia.If all conversations were recorded in blockchain technology there wouldn't have been need for this expensive delay in discovery. A simple stroke of a computer would retrieve archival information about what was said by whom and when and where it was said. Politicians shouldn't have privacy. They lie.Blockchain technology would keep them honest and probably cause extinction of the career politician.

Money And Power Has Its Limits

In 193 A.D. Didius Julianus out bid the former emperors family and bought the position of Caesar from the Praetorian Guard .Pertanix was the former Emperor who wanted a strong fiscal policy and hard currency. The Praetorian Guard killed Pertanix because citizens didn't want belt tightening.Didius Julianus offered more money to every member of the Praetorian guard and so was proclaimed Emperor. He promptly devalued the Roman currency to pre Pertanix values.Fiat currency versus hard currency was the issue. But the Praetorian Guard who were paid in hard currency were insulted by the immediate devaluation by Didius Julianus.So the Praetorian Guard immediately kills Didius Julianus in spite. DJ ruled for three months. So here we all our some two thousand years later still dealing with the outcome of fiat money and debt and the impact on citizens of Rome and for that matter the greater empire.Takeaway? It's always about money. No matter what any one says.Also the military runs the political show.One thing to look forward to is the greed and arrogance eventually consumes the politicians and the military to the point they start killing each other. Now I can't wait for that. P.S. The military will win in the run. As recounted above the armed forces allow the politicians to make policy but the real policy is pay the armed forces and they will let the politicians go through the motions of having power...until the money runs out.

LGBTQ : Double Counting Fantasy

The initiation and gradual expansion of the homosexual community took time. Homosexuality has existed since there were more than one man and one woman. The initiation and expansion of the brand started in the 1980's. The legal roots was implied in the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Activists from New York rolled out the LGBT logo seeing opportunity in the Civil Rights Act.Clever people. I would guess many came from the entertainment industry. Recently "Q" was added as a claim for all present and future homosexuals so to enlarge political clout. Politics is about head count. Ergo the more branded folks the more pols will pick up the phone.In the beginning there were only one man and one woman.The first homosexual was a variation of that nucleus. That is the variation was a form of bisexuality.Everyone else in the LGBTQ brand was just parsing of bisexuality. Therefore the LGBTQ brand should more accurately be reduced to "B" alone. All other letters of the brand is fantasy or deceptive double , triple or more tallies.Naughty, naughty it's not nice to tell lies.P.S. Could delusional LGBTQers demand multiple ballots per individual to leverage their small numbers and get proper legal representations for their confused ideas of sexuality? From the get-go gay rights advocates persuaded our government that their peculiarity was a civil rights issue. Actually their behavior is better suited for regulation through the Food And Drug Administration. The division that regulates Genetically Modified Organisms (GMO). The Civil Rights Act of 1964 was a stupid piece of legislation.Codified inclusion is worse than codified segregation.The tyranny of the progressives as exampled by the fantasy lgbtq crowd proves The Civil Rights Act of 1964 should be repealed. The quicker the repeal the better.Stem cell procedures has the potential to develop an altered human genome that could ultimately produce a new race. The newly configured genome could be patented and provide a bonanza of royalties to modern day replay of the Mary Shelley book Frankenstein. The LGBTQ crowd taking advantage of stem cell transformative powers would be a next step normalizing their existence. And what would be the profile of this new race? Resistant to HIV/AIDS could be one feature. Another could be emasculation or taming of aggressive behavior to facilitate slavery. Any side effects of the transformed? To be determined. I would guess Hollywood homosexual types would be the initial investors and handle the roll-out publicity of new race technology and its cost and benefits.Hollywood films have done quite a lot already in dumbing down their audience already about homosexuality in society. E.G. Gays have made their personal disease, HIV/AIDS pandemic a source of empathy. How stupid is the public?

Check With Gravity For The Correct Answer

Simplify your life. Think more clearly in 2015. Win more arguments.How? Kick political considerations. Don't pay attention to politicians opinions. And study what Isaac Newton had to say about gravity.Gravity is that unseen hand that controls everything on the planet. No matter the time zone. No matter the race or religion.We are all tethered to gravity. Pay respect to gravity and gravity will be a useful ally. For example,smaller buildings, smaller cars, smaller families, more space ,less government weight at the top, etc.Gravity has logic and doesn't lie. Say that about politicians.Happy New Year!

Pimps, Whores & Congress : Oldest Professions

The worlds oldest profession is popularly known as prostitution. But what is the second oldest profession? I suggest politics. The politician combines the availability and dutifulness of a whore with the commercial savvy of a pimp. Morally speaking the whore offers only what he or she owns and controls. Whereas the politician offers and delivers others labors or assets to a third party for a fee. Clearly the whore is sweating to deliver while the pol just collects with no sweat. Interestingly our society deems prostitution a crime and they can be fined or incarcerated. While politics is legal and campaign contributions amount to billions annually on top of the perqs and generous salaries. But wait there's more. Politicians can make laws that make heretofore illegal or immoral acts into mainstream customs and legal paradigms. Some day they will pay for their crimes.

Use a Train, Forget the Bus

So the flamers on the right win then the flamers on the left win. The hapless independents in the middle wait for Godot. The time for talk and voting is over. Independents should alternatively take one flamer from the conservative right and take one flamer from the liberal left and lay them down on railroad tracks. Let's start with 20.

Throwing pols under buses takes too long and is not as efficient as slicing metal train wheels. It would be kind o' like a conveyor belt of guillotine blades. Works for me. Trust me. The pols will understand.

Open Carry In Congress Would Help Image

Wouldn't it be refreshing if members of Congress adopted Open Carry in the Halls of Congress? Mere politics would be raised from the store- bought variety to real convictions with lethal back-up. Bring back duels and dry-gulching. The citizens would cheer no matter who won because the winners would be deserving of credibility.

Jack Murtha: Nickel-Novel Life

What stopped Rep. Jack Murtha? Death done him in. The House ethics commettee never found anything wrong inspite of the hundreds of violations that they examined- amazing. Jack died quietly and successfully after years of stealing. His life reads like a nickel novel.

Can the U.S. wait for natural causes to end the tenure of unnaturally greedy members of Congress? Return power and money to the states and limit the amount of stealing by representatives in government.

Bonus In The Headlines-Again

In 1932 at the nadir of the depression many WW I vets formed the "bonus marchers" movement . The goal was to get immediate payment from the U.S. government for their military service which ws due in 1945. President Hoover answered "no" . Then Generals Mac Arthur and Patton calvary- charged, bayonetted and tank- prodded the vets back into one of the Hoovervilles across from the nations capitol.

Today the outrage against bonus is for paying a bonus for bad and/or undeserved performance at the financial derivative branches at major banks, brokerage and insurance companies.

One mans bonus is anothers obligation. But one thing is for certain. Don't get in between a politician and his or hers reelection plans.

"Too Big To Fail ": Not True

When a politician says ," It's too big to fail", what he means is ," My part in the scheme of central planning has turned up another losing result that if allowed to fail will cost me and my fellow politicians our jobs. ". Like the communists, socialists and aristocracies of ancient history the U.S. has become a costly central planning nightmare.

" It's too big to fail" also means we are too lazy or too dumb to change. " Too big too fail" also means that money is the ultimate goal. And so today the Federal Reserve announced an additional $800 billion bailout and government guarentees . This is targeted to backing credit cards, student loans and toxic mortgage purchases. And how will the government pay for all this? The printing press will be smoking.

It's not that easy. The outcome will be a falling dollar and at some point hyperinflation will come around. The foreign buyers of our debt are already looking elsewhere.

"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"?

Prostitute Heidi Fleiss & Politician Hillary Clinton

Today well-known D.C. prostitute-madam Heidi Fleiss endorsed politician Hillary Clinton's presidential run.

Here's a rep from the world's oldest profession endorsing a rep from the world's second oldest profession. Where's Fleiss' moral authority ? Well prostitutes actually own what they sell. Whereas politicians sell to the highest bidders things which really belong to others. And to make it worse, politicians sign papers of indebtedness that those others have to repay!

I ask you. Who is the more moral?

Iraqi Parliament: Unsustainable Bribery

Iraqi members of Parliament draw a salary and benefits equal to $ 120,000 per year. In relative GDP figures, it is like our members of Congress earning $ 3,000,000 per year.This is the Middle East model for democracy as per George Bush.

Historically, democracy has always grown organically from the people who were to be governed. I.E. it started at the bottom and worked up. But the Bush model relies on bribes to militia heads to go through the motions of democratic governence.

Who's being made a fool, Bush et al, Iraqi members of parliament or American soldiers and taxpayers ? Bush and Iraqi parliamentarians collect salaries for their time. American soldiers and taxpayers pay the bills.
