Haha, íhaldið var með hvern sofandi sauðinn af öðrum í dómsmálaráðuneytinu

til að tryggja starfsfrið í réttarkerfi mafíunnar og halda draslinu hæfilega sofandi á meðan mafían hreinsaði innan úr því. Rollur af sama toga voru síðan á ruslveitunum jarmandi sinn svæfingasöng. En núna er þessi svikamylla loksins að springa í loft upp og ekki seinna vænna. Án efa mun komandi uppgjör þýða endalok núverandi einflokks í pólitíkinni eða allavega einhverra mjög skemmdra útlima hans. Það verður alveg lífsnauðsynleg hreinsun og í þágu öryggishagsmuna almennings. Fólk á ekki að þurfa að búa við opinberan terrorisma af því tagi sem við höfum séð og sjáum raunar enn.

Vesturlönd: Búið mikið til að færa ónýtar inneignir bankakerfis yfir á pólitískar eignir þess kerfis

Það þýðir að alveg vonlaust drasl er komið á kostnað skattgreiðenda í viðkomandi sápukúluhagkerfum. Og viðkomandi greiðendur eru að missa vinnuna í hrönnum vegna efnahagslegrar ofmettunar og sápukúluatvinnuvega sem hrynja eins og spilaborgir þegar ekki er lengur hægt að ljúga bóluna áfram.  Núna hefur S&P neyðst til að færa niður lánshæfi Bretlands enda er það löngu fallít og sennilega er ekki langt í að þessi matsfyrirtæki alþjóðlegs fjármálavalds þurfi að viðurkenna að ýldufýlan af bandar. hagkerfinu þýði að það sé í rauninni steindautt.

Olían ætti núna að vera nánast örugglega á leið í þetta $82-83

Það er raunverulega eina tæknilega viðnámið sem máli skiptir (ca. 38% frá fyrra toppi). Það er mjög góður kraftur í þessu og olían gæti vel haldið áfram upp úr því í 100 eða hærra en ekkert fer alveg beint upp eða niður á neinum markaði. Samt held ég að þetta sé mjög bullish næstu 6-12 mánuðina amk.

Hrun krónunnar: Icesave-ruglið hefur þegar hækkað um 50 milljarða

Ég legg til að samningsruglanda þessum verði rift og borið við hinu augljósa; heimsku og/eða heilarýrnun og spillingu undirmálsliðsins sem greinilega algjörlega vanhæft fólk sérvaldi til að klúðra enn frekar þessum ruglanda sem fjármálaeigendur fjórskipta einflokksins bjuggu til.

Það er raunar sérkennilegt að það geti hrunið í verði sem nánast er bannað að selja og vafalaust félli krónan strax um 50-80% ef viðskipti með hana væru frjáls. Kannski væri gæfulegast að láta það bara skella á og reyna þannig að finna botn sem hægt væri að vinna sig upp úr. Sem fyrr mun einflokkurinn stefna að því að teygja þennan lopa og hámarka þannig skaðann með tímanum og fyrst og fremst reyna að halda fólki sofandi á meðan restin er hirt af eigum þess.


Gold Panic Inside The Oval Office

Road to Roota XIV

By Bix Weir

I was watching the NBC special called "Inside the White House" last night and was struck by a meeting with Larry Summers and the President.

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/30892505/#31073805

It was touted as an "all access" day in the life of the President but at 7:15 minutes into Part 1 Larry Summers and a man who I believe is Austan Goolsbee come into the Oval Office for a call with "the Germans".  Summers is obviously on edge and shuts down the cameras when he begins to discuss the problem.

Summers: "Life has changed..ahh..since the briefing…ahh”

Obama: "For the better or for the worse?"

Goolsbee: "Net-net for the better…wouldn’t you say Larry?" (Goolsbee speaks loudly and unconvincingly for the cameras.)
 
Summers: “(nervous laugh)..there’s elements of both. The Germans...actually we should stop (the cameras) here."

The cameras and staff are quickly “ushered out” of the Oval Office.

For those who don’t know,
Austan Goolsbee is on the Presidents Council of Economic Advisers and is touted as Larry Summers’ “Economic Internet Guru”. In that capacity there is no doubt in my mind that he monitors all the gold internet sites as well as being in charge of coordinating all the “gold disinformation” articles. Like Summers, Goolsbee believes in a kind of “Psychological Tendencies Economic Model” touting that it is perception that steers the worlds economic markets not necessarily fact. Having fought the gold manipulation battles for so long we all know perception can be managed and manipulated as I discussed in my articles “Operation Confidence Con” and “Geithner Plan=Sustained Manipulation”.

On May 28th, the night before the White House taping, Jim Willie of Goldenjackass.com posted an article called
“The Hitman Cometh” where he claimed the Germans are trying to withdraw all their physical gold from US control and several “hit men” have been hired to take down the COMEX and the LME:

"The Germans have demanded that gold bullion held in US custodial accounts be returned to their owners, with physical gold shipped back to Germany ."

I'll bet my last gold Kruggie that the Oval Office phone call was a desperate plea to buy more time before the Germans destroy the physical gold manipulation scheme.

This together with rumblings of China, Russia, Saudi Arabia and Dubai scrambling to get their hands on physical gold has put the Obama Manipulation Team in major gold panic mode.

It's amazing to see these few people in the White House scrambling to prolong a failed policy of trying to manipulate the gold markets of the world.

What a sad state we find ourselves in.

UKs 300 year reign of resource and wealth extraction terror coming to an end?

Guardian ... For 300 years Britain has outsourced mayhem. Finally it's coming home

Opium, famine and banks all played their part in this country's plundering of the globe. Now it's over, we find it hard to accept

Why now? It's not as if this is the first time Britain's representatives have been caught out. The history of governments in all countries is the history of scandal, as those who rise to the top are generally the most ambitious, ruthless and unscrupulous people politics can produce. Pushing their own interests to the limit, they teeter perennially on the brink of disgrace, except when they fly clean over the edge. So why does the current ballyhoo threaten to destroy not only the government but also our antediluvian political system?

The past 15 years have produced the cash-for-questions racket, the Hinduja and Ecclestone affairs, the lies and fabrications that led to the invasion of Iraq, the forced abandonment of the BAE corruption probe, the cash-for-honours caper and the cash-for-amendments scandal. By comparison to the outright subversion of the functions of government in some of these cases, the is small beer. Any one of them should have prompted the sweeping political reforms we are now debating. But they didn't.

The expenses scandal, by contrast, could kill the Labour party. It might also force politicians of all parties to address our unjust voting system, the unelected Lords, the excessive power of the executive, the legalised blackmail used by the whips, and a score of further anachronisms and injustices. Why is it different?

I believe that the current political crisis has little to do with the expenses scandal, still less with Gordon Brown's leadership. It arises because our economic system can no longer extract wealth from other nations. For the past 300 years, the revolutions and reforms experienced by almost all other developed countries have been averted in Britain by foreign remittances.

The social unrest that might have transformed our politics was instead outsourced to our colonies and unwilling trading partners. The rebellions in Ireland, India, China, the Caribbean, Egypt, South Africa, Malaya, Kenya, Iran and other places we subjugated were the price of political peace in Britain. After decolonisation, our plunder of other nations was sustained by the banks. Now, for the first time in three centuries, they can no longer deliver, and we must at last confront our problems.

There will probably never be a full account of the robbery this country organised, but there are a few snapshots. In his book Capitalism and Colonial Production, Hamza Alavi estimates that the resource flow from India to Britain between 1793 and 1803 was in the order of £2m a year, the equivalent of many billions today. The economic drain from India, he notes, "has not only been a major factor in India's impoverishment … it has also been a very significant factor in the industrial revolution in Britain". As Ralph Davis observes in The Industrial Revolution and British Overseas Trade, from the 1760s onwards India's wealth "bought the national debt back from the Dutch and others … leaving Britain nearly free from overseas indebtedness when it came to face the great French wars from 1793".

In France by contrast, as Eric Hobsbawm notes in The Age of Revolution, "the financial troubles of the monarchy brought matters to a head". In 1788 half of France's national expenditure was used to service its debt: the "American War and its debt broke the back of the monarchy".

Even as the French were overthrowing the ancien regime, Britain's landed classes were able to strengthen their economic power, seizing common property from the country's poor by means of enclosure. Partly as a result of remittances from India and the Caribbean, the economy was booming and the state had the funds to ride out political crises. Later, after smashing India's own industrial capacity, Britain forced that country to become a major export market for our manufactured goods, sustaining industrial employment here (and avoiding social unrest) long after our products and processes became uncompetitive.

Colonial plunder permitted the British state to balance its resource deficits as well. For some 200 years a river of food flowed into this country from such places as Ireland, India and the Caribbean. In The Blood Never Dried, John Newsinger reveals that in 1748 Jamaica alone sent 17,400 tons of sugar to Britain; by 1815 this had risen to 73,800. It was all produced by stolen labour.

Just as grain was sucked out of Ireland at the height of its great famine, so Britain continued to drain India of food during its catastrophic hungers. In Late Victorian Holocausts, Mike Davis shows that between 1876 and 1877 wheat exports to the UK from India doubled as subsistence there collapsed, and several million died of starvation. In the North-Western provinces famine was wholly engineered by British policy, as good harvests were exported to offset poor English production in 1876 and 1877.

Britain, in other words, outsourced famine as well as social unrest. There was terrible poverty in this country in the second half of the 19th century, but not mass starvation. The bad harvest of 1788 helped precipitate the French revolution, but the British state avoided such hazards. Others died on our behalf. 

In the late 19th century, Davis shows, Britain's vast deficits with the United States, Germany and its white dominions were balanced by huge annual surpluses with India and (as a result of the opium trade) China. For a generation "the starving Indian and Chinese peasantries … braced the entire system of international settlements, allowing England's continued financial supremacy to temporarily co-exist with its relative industrial decline". Britain's trade surpluses with India allowed the City to become the world's financial capital.

Its role in British colonisation was not a passive one. The bankruptcy, and subsequent British takeover, of Egypt in 1882 was hastened by a loan from Roths­child's bank whose execution, Newsinger records, amounted to "fraud on a massive scale". ­Jardine Matheson, once the biggest narco-trafficking outfit in history (it dominated the Chinese opium trade), later formed a major investment bank, Jardine Fleming. It was taken over by JP Morgan Chase in 2000.

We lost our colonies, but the plunder has continued by other means. As Joseph Stiglitz shows in Globalisation and its Discontents, the capital liberalisation forced on Asian economies by the IMF permitted northern traders to loot hundreds of billions of dollars, precipitating the Asian financial crisis of 1997-98. Poorer nations have also been strong-armed into a series of amazingly one-sided treaties and commitments, such as trade-related investment measures, bilateral investment agreements and the EU's economic partnership agreements. If you have ever wondered how a small, densely populated country which produces very little supports itself, I would urge you to study these asymmetric arrangements.

But now, as John Lanchester demonstrates in a fascinating essay in the London Review of Books, the City could be fatally wounded. The nation that relied on financial services may take generations to recover from their collapse. The great British adventure – three centuries spent pillaging the labour, wealth and resources of other countries – is over. We cannot accept this, and seek gleeful revenge on a government that can no longer insulate us from reality.

Olían trúlega á leið í $80-90 amk.

Braskarar eru á hröðum flótta úr ofurverðbólgnum og yfirprentuðum gjaldmiðlum fallít hagkerfa vesturlanda og fjárstreymið er skiljanlega í hrávöru og málma. S&P neyddist um daginn loks til að lækka gjaldhæfi Bretlands, enda sú efnahagslega martröð gjörsamlega gjaldþrota fyrir löngu, og sennilega er ekki langt í að lánshæfismatsarmur alþjóðlegrar fjármálamafíu neyðist til að skrifa niður ónýta pappíra annarra væntanlegra risagjaldþrota í Evrópu að ekki sé talað um sjálfan fílinn í dagstofunni, brandaravitleysuna í Bandaríkjunum. Þar hefur verstu bankaskrípum alheimsins verið haldið á floti með ótrúlegri peningaframleiðslu úr alls engu en samt eru þessi skrípi jafn gjaldþrota og ekki langt í að þau láti pólitískar eignir sínar moka í sig trilljónum dollara til viðbótar. Þannig að þarna er massíf óðaverðbólga í pípunum samfara efnahagslegri stöðnun í ofurmettuðu hagkerfi og trylltur flótti fjármagns úr einu í annað undan óumflýjanlegu tapi.

Hrein staða við útlönd neikvæð um 4.580 ma.kr. í lok fyrsta ársfjórðungs - Seðlabankinn

1. ársfjórðungur 2009

Hrein staða við útlönd var neikvæð um 4.580 ma.kr. í lok fyrsta ársfjórðungs og réttist af um rúma 131 ma.kr. frá síðasta fjórðungi. Erlendar eignir námu 8.479 ma.kr. í lok ársfjórðungsins en skuldir 13.059 ma.kr. Vert er að geta þess að inni í tölum um erlendar skuldir eru ennþá eignir og skuldir viðskiptabankanna þriggja sem nú eru í greiðslustöðvun. Fjármögnun vanskila hefur líka haft áhrif til hækkunar á skammtímaskuldum. sedlabanki.is
