I Thessalonians 5:20, 21

Do not despise expounding of scripture, but scrutinize all things. Hold fast that which is right.

Malo periculosam libertatem quam quietum servitium

- I prefer liberty with danger to peace with slavery.

Rewarding the Unprofitable Servants

_____________________________________
Jesus Christ is undoubtedly, among many other attributes, history's most influential teacher. He is unmatched in the use of parables as a means of instruction. Most educated people today have at least heard of the Parable of the Talents as found in the book of Matthew, Chapter 25:


14 For the kingdom of heaven is as a man traveling into a far country, who called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods.

15 And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took his journey.

16 Then he that had received the five talents went and traded with the same, and made them other five talents.

17 And likewise he that had received two, he also gained other two.

18 But he that had received one went and digged in the earth, and hid his lord's money.

19 After a long time the lord of those servants cometh, and reckoneth with them.

20 And so he that had received five talents came and brought other five talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents: behold, I have gained beside them five talents more.

21 His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.

22 He also that had received two talents came and said, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me two talents: behold, I have gained two other talents beside them.

23 His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.

24 Then he which had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art an hard man, reaping where thou hast not sown, and gathering where thou hast not strawed:

25 And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, there thou hast that is thine.

26 His lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not strawed:

27 Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and then at my coming I should have received mine own with usury.

28 Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him which hath ten talents.

29 For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath.

30 And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.


In short, the lesson is this: the servant who has proven himself faithful over a "few things" should be made ruler over many things. The faithful servant who has used his "talents" wisely, produced and increased, has earned his reward - the right to rule over more.

Contrast that outcome with what we have witnessed with the financial destruction caused by the "too big to fail" Jewish controlled Wall Street financial institutions, Goldman Sachs, JPMorganChase, Bank of America, Citicorp, and AIG, among others. They - through their greed, avarice, recklessness and power - have brought the world's entire financial system to the edge of the cliff. In order to prevent the world's economies from going completely over the edge, these "too big to fail" institutions have had to be "bailed" out, that is, rescued. Plans are in the works to release these "unprofitable" servants from their toxic assets so they don't disappear into the "outer darkness" of bankruptcy, where they rightly belong. Worse, these servants expect to keep their bonuses as a reward for the profits they made their respective financial titans. They want to privatize the profits and communize the losses. In other words, have their cake and eat it too. That, folks, is chutzpah.

Instead of taking away what good assets they have left, through bankruptcy, and giving them to those profitable banks, they are being rescued from their greed and recklessness by mostly faithful servants who did not act foolishly. Who else is going to pay for these bailouts and rescue plans but those who work and make best and wise use of their "talents?"

These trillion dollar bailouts are an outrageous theft from those who should be rewarded for their prudent and frugal ways. Those hundreds of banks that did not practice unwise banking, should not be punished as they are and will be with the Bush and now the Barry Soetoro stimulus packages, as these "too big to fail" banks will be using their billions of free money, meant to prevent the collapse of these Jewish criminals, to buy out their competition. These Rothschild affiliated banksters, through their control of the Federal Reserve Bank, are raping the American taxpayers for trillions of dollars in out right handouts. And they say we have no right to know who is getting the free money or how much! Why? Because revelation of who is getting what might result in stigma, and people might therefore avoid these banks. We want the money, but only secretively.

Further theft will follow through the inflation, even the hyperinflation, that is guaranteed to follow, like night follows day. These thieves are buying hard assets with these billions of other people's money before the hyperinflation sets in, that these financial "wizards" all know is coming. Then they will benefit yet again.

All of this plunder is taking place right before our eyes through the machinations and manipulations of men like ex-Goldman Sachs CEO Henry Paulson, quite likely a crpto-Jew, and now the new Jewish Secretary Treasurer, Tim Geithner, the Jewish Director of the White House's National Economic Council, Larry Summers, the Jewish Federal Reserve Chairmen, Ben Shalom Bernanke, who replaced the Jewish Alan Greenspan, the Jewish Peter Orszag, White House Budget Director. And the list of Jewish involvement in this plunder and theft of historical proportions goes on and on.

If we learn anything from this parable, it is that those responsible - these wicked and slothful "Masters of the Universe" - for this yet to be fully realized financial debacle - should be, rather than rescued from their avarice, hanged.

Then, instead of the laughter and mocking we know is taking place privately, we hope there would be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

My Take on the Current Depression

___________________________________________

The economic free fall the United States, and much of the rest of the world is experiencing, was not happenstance, not a mistake that took us by chance. These events were planned by International Jewry, the International Jewish financiers who control most of the world's economy. These people - Hans "Henry" Kissinger, Zbigniew Brzezinski, Alan Greenspan, Hank Paulson, Rahm Emanuel, Robert Rubin, Tim Geithner, Larry Summers, Paul Volcker, Ben Shalom Bernanke, Peter R. Orszag, David Axelrod, the Rothschilds, we rarely if ever hear about, along with those at Goldman Sachs, Lehman Brothers, JPMorgan, Citigroup, Merrill Lynch, and the Bernard Madoffs and Maurice Greenbergs, [AIG] Jews one and all, along with their sock puppets, Poppy Bush and Baby Bush, the Clintons, Tony Blair, and now Gordon Brown, and the usurper Barry Soetoro, all had their hands in the demise of the United States' economy.

Not by mistake, no no, not a chance this greater depression was by mistake. These people are way too intelligent for that. After all - it is the Jews themselves who never miss a chance to tell us how smart they are, the "Masters of the Universe," the over represented Nobel Prize winners among us, "God's Chosen." No, this was all planned out. A conspiracy? Yes. But not a theory, the proof is there for all to discover, going all the way back to the first central banks in Europe some three hundred years ago, controlled by the Rothschild family - right up the central banks today that control our world's financial systems. All the evidence one needs can be found at sites such as I Am the Witness which houses dozens of books containing thousands of pages available for free, documenting the conspiracy for anyone wishing to do the research.

What is happening is that these criminal conspirators are deliberately burying Americans in debt so monumental while providing trillions of borrowed dollars to themselves as they complete the financial rape of the Western world. These financial wizards know full well these trillions they are throwing at the problems they created by way of their banking and insurance schemes, will not solve the problems they created, but will, in fact, exacerbate the problems, which is precisely what they want. Too much spending, too much debt, is the problem, more spending, more debt is not going to solve the problem. When someone drinks too much and has a hangover, the solution is not to drink more alcohol, but to endure the hangover, no matter how painful, vowing to not drink too much next time. Their solution is not a 12 Step Program, but more fuel on the fire.

When they are done with their various "stimulus" packages, there will be no resources left to provide real solutions.

Why are they doing this?

Control. These people are control freaks to the extreme. They desire nothing less than complete control over the rest of us. These sociopaths believe they have the right, due to their supremacy, to control the rest of the world, us goyim, us cattle. They want to tell us what to believe, Christianity is out, holocaustianity is in, for one example, climate change, for another; what to say, "hate crime" laws, for example; what to do, tolerant homosexuality, for one example, abortion for another; what to learn, indoctrination in public schools, for one example; what to eat, raw milk is illegal, for example, organic farming is being made illegal for another, Amygdalin/laetrile for yet another; not defend ourselves, gun control laws, for example; the list goes on. These people want to enslave us, control our speech, our actions, our beliefs, even what we think.

Once we are brought to our knees economically, forced out of our homes, jobless, because they pushed CAFTA and NAFTA, globalism, outsourcing, offshoring, "free trade" and illegal immigration down our throats, in debt up to our eyeballs with usury, unable to defend ourselves due to our fractured families they promoted through their "no-fault" divorce schemes, financially burdened with wars for Israel - which our fully duped Christian Zionist mega-churches - deceived through the Zionist C.I. Scofield Reference Bible, wholeheartedly support - and the countless hours of television programming that brainwash and transform our attention deficient consumers into useful idiots, these criminal Zionists will present "solutions' that most sheople will gladly exchange their birthright for, just like Esau.

Most Americans, given a roof over their head, three squares a day and "security," and perhaps a green related "job" or community service in an Obama jobs corp, to do their part, will be eating out of the Zionist's hands, willingly.

Which was their plan all along.

For those who don't take the bait, among those solutions offered will be the means by which the ruling elite will destroy all dissent, prevent all debate, squelch all disagreement, physically or verbally, and imprison all those who dare object, as "anti-Semites," hatemongers, domestic terrorists, all under the guise of the un-Americanism and anti-terrorism laws they have already enacted to make what they will soon do, perfectly legal. Those taking the porridge will condemn those who don't and "democracy" - rule by the majority - will triumph.

Right now, these Zionists are avoiding the word depression. Once they start using the term depression openly and frequently, you'll know they are moving into the next phase, providing the "solutions" they've been intending for us all along.

Those solutions will involve complete control over our lives. We will no longer be a nation of freemen. The United States as we knew it will no longer exist.

The Jews Behind the "Swindle" Scheme

___________________________________________

The Jewish controlled media had no problem alleging it was a conspiracy of "19 Arabs with box cutters" behind 9/11. So, why are they not telling us the facts about the conspiracy of Jews behind the financial bailout that has cost close to $12 trillion dollars thus far?

Here are the names of the Jews behind the latest stimulus deal, also known as the "swindle," courtesy of Real Jew News

Timothy Geithner: Treasury Secretary - Jewish.

Steven Rattner: Treasury Advisor For Auto Sector - Jewish.

Larry Summers: Economic Advisor to the President - Jewish.

Robert Rubin: Economic Advisor to the President - Jewish.

Alan Blinder: Economic Advisor to the President - Jewish.

Jason Furman: Director Of Economic Policy - Jewish.

Peter Orszag: Head of Budget - Jewish.

Jon Leibowitz: Chairman Of FTC - Jewish.


Adding to this list of Jewish-Zionists on Obama’s economic advisors team, is his administrative staff of Zionist Jews:

Rahm Emanuel: Chief of Staff - Jewish.

David Axelrod: Senior Advisor to the President - Jewish.

Ronald Klain: Chief of Staff to the Vice President - Jewish.

________________________________

And there is Bernard Bernanke - Federal Reserve chairman - Jewish.

And let's not forget a big player in all of this mess, Alan "Maestro" Greenspan - Jewish.

These Jews are robbing the American taxpayers blind, after having caused the problems in the first place.

Stocks to Fall 90% Before This Depression is Over

____________________________________________________
stock_chart_45
________________________
Click on image to enlarge. Graph from StockCharts
____________
I want to go on record stating that the DJIA will fall to at or below 3000 before this Greater Depression reaches bottom. And likely below 2000. Most people invested in paper assets, such as stocks, will lose most or all of what they invested. Bye bye retirement plans and pensions for the hardworking. The Greater Depression will last upwards of 10 years because of all the wrong things the government is doing - trillion dollar bailouts for the greedy Jewish bankers who caused most if not all the problems, trillion dollar stimulus packages instead of allowing the correction that is needed to compensate for the excessive spending during the years of cheap anyone-who-can-hold-a-pen-can-get credit. Along with this doozy depression, starting in about 9-12 months, the winds of hyperinflation are going to blow through the economy like a hurricane - Hurricane Zim - after Zimbabwe.

As a result of 30% or greater un-employment, bank runs, food scarcity, the collapse of the dollar, there will be massive civil unrest, and hopefully, revolution. Then maybe people will be interested in getting back to the Ten Commandment Model of free market economics - just weights and measures, gold and silver coin as money to restrain government spending and bank lending, no private central bank charging usury and a high personal savings rate. I doubt that will happen but when the Ten Commandment Model was used, the nation was prosperous.

There is a price to be paid for ignoring God's biblical laws of economics. But what will be offered instead, by the same criminals that brought calamity upon the rest of us, will One World Order - a new global financial system run by the Jewish financial "Masters of the Universe" i.e., the Rothschilds, their progeny and the rest of the Jews so-called. The Volkers, the Kissinger, the Zionist boot licking Clintons, the Summers, the Geithers, the usurper Soetoro and all the rest of the government pimps and prostitutes will use the Jewish controlled media to sell the gullible lemmings their lies and profitable propaganda. And the people, who reject God and all that He stands for, will gladly accept the proposed solution for the crust of bread that is offered.

Jefferson Warned Americans - 1802

____________________________________________________

"If the American people ever allow private banks
to control the issue of their money,
first by inflation and then by deflation,
the banks and corporations that will
grow up around them (around the banks),
will deprive the people of their property
until their children will wake up homeless
on the continent their fathers conquered."

Thomas Jefferson 1802

____________________________________
jefferson
____________________________

A private bank, the Federal Reserve System, controls the issuance of the money - the dollar - of the United States. Through this control of credit, the Federal Reserve creates booms - inflation - and busts - deflation. By controlling access to this credit, favored corporations "grow up around" the banks, e.g. AIG is favored, Ford Motor is not, Bank of America is favored, Republican Windows is not, JPMorgan, [Rothschild controlled] is favored, non-Jewish corporations are not.

Once a worker takes on a mortgage and the central bank creates a deflation and depression, the worker loses his house to the bank, and finds himself out on the street, ie, "homeless."

Jefferson predicted exactly what we are experiencing today - American people homeless on the continent their fathers conquered for their "posterity."

A Sign of Things Soon to Come

______________________________

As brought out back in July here: Time to Buy the Farm the time to own a farm has come. Events transpiring in the US [and elsewhere] not only could, but most likely will, lead to a demand for food that Americans have not witnessed before.

"An estimated 40,000 people came to a Weld County farm Saturday - [November 22] - to collect free potatoes, carrots and leeks."

The Miller family of Colorado expected about 5,000 - 10,000 people to show up for the free "gleanings," but an estimated 40,000 people arrived - starting in the dark at 6 a.m. - for the free vegetables. Down on the Farm

But also, another sign of things to come was evident the previous week in nearby Denver:

........ thieves broke into freezers owned by the Park Hill Grandparents Organization and stole Thanksgiving trimmings — including more than a dozen frozen turkeys — set to be donated.


Fortunately, no one was in the Park Hill Grandparents Organization building when the turkey thieves broke in. Had there been, perhaps some grandparents may have have been hurt. When people are hungry, there is no telling what they will do.

Americans haven't seen hunger - real hunger - yet. Methinks that inexperience will soon change and when it does, not only will the hungry not wait for nice people like the Millers to invite them for the gleanings, but bad people like those who stole those soon to be donated turkeys won't wait for an invitation to steal food from those who have and won't necessarily wait until the home is empty.

The fact that crime will rise in the lean years ahead has not been lost on the hundreds of thousands who have been stocking up on weapons and ammunition.
Gun sale boom follows Obama's win
I think people have some fear of the unknown.

Gun sales soaring

Another reason sales are up is that some fear a sour economy will increase crime.

Gun sales booming big time

Two stories that have been getting lots of post-presidential election play are the bad economy and, despite the bad economy, skyrocketing gun sales.


Two things you might want to make sure you have access to - food for your family and the means to protect not only your food, but yourself as well. There is no telling what hungry people will do.

Gold Shortage

__________________________________________________
As the following links show, there now exists a shortage of physical gold in the real world market place. This shortage is in contradistinction to the falling price of price of paper gold in the Comex world of digital traders. Once some of these paper gold traders start demanding the delivery of their contracts, the fact of the physical gold shortage will become apparent and there will be a rush to acquire gold as a hard asset that can be held in investor's hands. Paper gold may turn out to be fool's gold.

Gold Market Dis-Information Specialists Ply Their Trade


"Well, here's a dose of reality folks: In a conversation I [Rob Kirby] had with one of Canada 's largest physical, retail bullion dealers last Friday – here's a summary of what he told me: As a long time and valued customer of the Royal Canadian Mint, he has been told that the Mint is not accepting ANY orders for gold or silver coin for at least 3 months – and no guarantees then either."

Gold: There are zero one ounce gold bars in North America at wholesale – period.
Same thing for 10 oz gold bars.
Some kilo gold bars are available at wholesale but in highly limited at prices starting at 5 % over spot [COMEX price].

Asim Jang said due to the international volatility in the gold market, there was shortage of physical gold bars but NCEL has already made arrangements from the refinery in Switzerland. “The refinery has been supplying commodity to NCEL in collaboration with its gold bars sector.”

Gold trading at NCEL Increasing
The gold and silver shortage has not abated, and if you can find gold or silver at the retail level, consider yourself fortunate.

1. We must report that there are no Gold or Silver Coins in dealer vaults or at the mints. Demand has simply overwhelmed the physical supply-every dealer has sold everything!

2. To complicate the shortage, the U.S. Mint halted minting 2008 American Eagles for the year.

istockanalyst.com
________________________

One of the reasons I continue to believe that gold is on the verge of a substantial jump in price has to do with the divergence between paper and physical gold. The other day I had a client call the Denver mint in search of gold and silver coins and was advised that gold eagles cost US $1,195.00/ounce, while silver eagles are at US $25.95/ounce; take it or leave it. Also, coin shops in Florida simply do not have any gold and silver coins to sell. I know that the paper markets are subject to manipulation, but the reality can be found in the physical market. Gold may have turned around on Friday with its almost upside reversal, or it may fall down to 642.80 before we finally see a bottom, but gold is the only protection an investor can find in the deflationary world. Therefore everybody should be accumulating it on a regular basis according to their respective pocket books.


Gold Eagle.com
______________________________

The current dichotomy between paper [Comex] and physical precious metals markets is being caused by an intentional bottleneck at the wholesale level. Wholesale gold and silver is being hoarded to fund precious metal suppression schemes, such as sales and leasing, and to maintain dominance of the commercials in the paper markets by preventing a failure to deliver. In essence, this bottleneck between the wholesale and retail levels of the market in precious metals amounts to a de facto confiscation of gold and silver from the masses.

Argentina's Economic Collapse

_______________________________________________
Must see video [59 mins] on the economic collapse in Argentina in 2001. It all started with a loan from the British Barings Bank in 1824.
______________________________________

_________________________________

And ended with the collapse of the Argentina economy in 2001. Watching this video I had a feeling of reverse deja vu. What happened in Argentina is what I believe is coming to the United States soon after the derivatives time bomb goes off.

Documentary on the events that led to the economic collapse of Argentina in 2001 which wiped out the middle class and raised the level of poverty to 57.5%. Central to the collapse was the implementation of neo-liberal policies which enabled the swindle of billions of dollars by foreign banks and corporations. Many of Argentina's assets and resources were shamefully plundered. Its financial system was even used for money laundering by Citibank, Credit Suisse, and JP Morgan. The net result was massive wealth transfers and the impoverishment of society which culminated in many deaths due to oppression and malnutrition. The same thing from happening in the United States right now.

Dead Cat Bounce

________________________________
U.S. Stocks Rally Most Since 1930s on Bank Plan; Dow Gains 936


Oct. 13 (Bloomberg) -- U.S. stocks staged the biggest rally in seven decades on a government plan to buy stakes in banks and a Federal Reserve-led push to flood the global financial system with dollars.

U.S. Stocks Rally

The US government is going to "buy stakes in banks" - the healthy banks mind you. Unhealthy banks, [which were the target - Target Asset Rescue Plan - of the bailout plan, remember?] are going to be ignored while Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan, [now retail banks] Citicorp and other Jewish controlled selected banks get ex-Goldman [read Rothschild] Paulson [Jewish] and now Neel Kashkare [Jewish] to fund them billions of taxpayer borrowed funds to keep them from failing. These titans will be left standing after the economic collapse which is surely coming and the rest of the smaller non-Jewish banks can implode for all they care. In fact, that was the plan from the beginning.

Did you get the significance of the statement: "Federal Reserve-led push to flood the global financial system with dollars?"


That flooding the global financial system with more fiat currency - currency backed only by the good faith and credit of the United States, which for all intents and purposes is now non-existent, is not going to fix any problems, but instead create another greater intractable problem, inflation in the global economy and hyperinflation in the US.

Once the global economy stops denying reality, that is, that the United States is bankrupt and can not repay it's debts and is going to default on it's debt obligations through a force majeure, and all those left holding dollars will suffer a complete loss in relation to the amount of Old Maid dollar currency they hold, there will be a mass exodus of the dollar. With that exit will come the complete collapse of the dollar and the US economy will dive into a depression that history will say was the final gasp of the United States.

What we are seeing this week in the exuberant rise in the US stock markets is what is referred to as a "dead cat bounce."
_____________________________
dead cat bounce
_____________________________
Even a cat, after a fall from high places, will bounce once after it hits the pavement. The Masters of the Universe are creating a run up in the stock market, to sucker retail and other non-insider investors into the market so as to allow the Masters - Goldman, JP Morgan, et al, to exit with the last bit of profit before the final crash.

Don't be suckered in. If you are, you deserve to lose your wool.

Japan's Nikkei Falls Nearly 10%
"I think people are trying to liquidate positions, but there just aren't any buyers there. It's the nature of the markets that there are very few people willing to buy stocks," said Andrew Sullivan, a sales trader at Main First Securities. "A lot of people sitting on cash are happy to be sitting on cash at the moment." He added the selling was likely intensified because of a holiday in Japan on Monday.


European Union tested by world economic crisis


"Europe is in the midst of a once-in-a-lifetime crisis," 256 of the continent's leading economists said Tuesday in an open letter to EU leaders.

"Unless European leaders immediately unite to address this crisis before it spirals out of control, they may find themselves fighting over how best to salvage the aftermath," the economists said. They evoked "the dark years of the 1930s," adding: "It is not an exaggeration to say that it could happen again if governments fail to act."


United States Dragging the World into a Great Depression

“Big discounts fail to lure shoppers,” reports the Wall Street Journal . Restaurants are empty. Shopping malls are not even attracting strollers and gawkers – let alone people with money to spend. Auto lots are so quiet the salesmen take turns pretending to be customers – just to keep their skills at-the-ready. Even the private jet business is in a tailspin."

9 out of 10 Americans now believe the country is headed in the "wrong direction" economically, while, according to CNN/Opinion Research Corp. poll, which surveyed more than 1,000 Americans over the weekend, a majority of people now "believe another economic depression is likely" and that we will experience "25% unemployment rate, widespread bank failures and millions of Americans homeless and unable to feed their families."

Are Korean banks next in line for government rescue?
SEOUL (Reuters) - As the global financial crisis picks off victims among U.S. and European financial institutions, analysts fear South Korea's banks could be the next casualties.

European markets plunge again; Nikkei plummets
LONDON - European stock markets slumped in early trading Friday following massive sell-offs on Wall Street and Asia as lending rates between banks continue to rise despite this week's efforts by central banks to break the logjam in credit markets.

"Overall it's the fact that despite the huge fire-fighting efforts of central banks worldwide we still haven't seen any thawing of interbank lending that is going to be causing the most concern now," said Matt Buckland, a dealer at CMC Markets in London.

"Investors were gripped by fear," said Yutaka Miura, senior strategist at Shinko Securities in Tokyo.

"I don't know what they can do. The actions of governments and central banks have had no effects, they haven't freed up credit markets and not inspired confidence in stock markets," said David Jones, chief markets strategist at IG Index.

Few places escaped the deepening gloom. In Australia, where the S&P/ASX200 plummeted a record 8.3 percent, market watchers were calling it "Black Friday." Key indices in Hong Kong, Singapore, the Philippines and India were all down about 8 percent. South Korea's Kospi closed down 4.1 percent, while the Shanghai Composite Index posted a more moderate decline of 2.8 percent.

The Japanese yen and gold remain in demand as safe-haven assets.

Venezuelan president blames U.S., IMF for world financial crisis
The U.S. crisis revealed that the imperialism bases are falling down and U.S. President George W. Bush and the IMF should be responsible for the world financial crisis, Chavez said.

All signs pointing to panic
Even Feds seem impotent to calm markets; Dow has now lost 39% of value in past year
"I think this is all-out panic," said Jim Paulsen, chief investment strategist for Wells Capital Management in Minneapolis. "It's gone from economic problems creating fear to fear creating economic problems."

Global auto market may "collapse" in 2009: J.D.Power

All the King's Men

Dow Drops


Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall,
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall,
All the king's men,
All the king's horses
Could not put Humpty Dumpty
Back together again.


Repeated that Alice in Wonderland saying over and over ad infinitum ad nauseum when I was a child. But I never thought I'd ever see it happen in my lifetime, but we are.

The money system the Jewish bankers have built up in their quest for global dominance of the world's financial system is collapsing in real time and they - the Masters of the Universe - can't fix it. What greed has done their alleged intelligence can't undo. So much for how intelligent they are.

Their greed is causing the dominoes to clack clack clack together. One by one the banks - even those "too big to fail" - and now countries - Iceland - and states - California - are going down.

All these falling down when it wasn't but a few weeks ago that President Bush said,
"the economy is fundamentally sound." "When I use a word, it means just what I choose it to mean - neither more nor less," Humpty Dumpty said in a rather scornful tone. What exactly did you choose "fundamentally" to mean?

Yes, indeed Mr. President, you do live in a Alice and Wonderland world. For the rest of us, Humpty Dumpty is having a great fall. It looks as if your men, Paulson, even with TARP and carte blanc power or Bernanke, with his helicopters of money - [now nowhere to be seen] - can not put him back together again.

Fear and Greed

______________________________
For the most part, people, including businessman and investors, make economic decisions, invest or spend their money based on a continuum between fear on the one end and greed on the other. To make prudent economic decisions, one must strike a proper balance between fear and greed. With too much fear, inaction results, too much greed and the risk of ruin is greatly increased.


Just as prices in a free market are set by supply and demand, financial and real estate markets are governed by the opposing tension between greed and fear. Everyone wants to make money, but everyone is also afraid of losing what he has. Although few would ascribe their desire for prosperity to greed, it is simply a rose by another name. Greed is the elemental motivation for the economic risk-taking and hard work that are essential to a vibrant economy.
Peter Schiff, found here: Don't Blame Capitalism added to this missive on October 16th

Wall Street bankers for the last several years have been basically gambling without fear. They have traded their mortgage backed paper away by bundling them all together the good and the bad, had them rated by their gambling buddies at Fitch, Moodys or Standard and Poors and then sold them off to the unsupecting saps in Japan and China, and others around the world, who thought they were buying Triple AAA rated material when in fact, they were purchasing nothing more than doogie poo painted gold. These saps had no fear in buying this doggie pooh, as they were rated by the best of the best to be the best of the best. Stamped Triple AAA by Moodys or S&P - how much better does it get?

Not content with just mortgages to bilk billions, these Masters of the Universe fearlessly started selling collateralized debt obligations - CDOs - composed of mortgage backed securities, commercial real estate debt and high yield corporate loans. The Masters gave these gold plated dog turds a fancy name - special purpose vehicles - [the special purpose was, of course to bilk the buyers of such toxic waste, but that was just an insider's secret to be shared around a high prized cocktail at an after work dinner club near Wall Street.] These CDOS couldn't fail because the firm's hot shot MBAs said the trances' algorithms showed that the rate of failure was next to zero. If a M.I.T hotshot gave the green light, it was petal to the metal without fear.

With all fear gone, greed kicked in. And boy are these Jewish Wall Street firms greedy. Investors, underwriters, asset managers, trustees and collateral administrators, accountants and attorneys were all were part of the scam. After Phil Gramm successfully undid the Glass-Steagul Act, removing the very restrictions imposed during the Great Depression to prevent greed from taking over in an incestuous and now unregulated market, they started trading these unregulated "insured" dog turds among themselves sometimes acting as both insurer and broker - to pay for their Lamborghinis. Things were never better.

Until Bear Stearns.

Then the party was over. All hell broke loose. Fear now entered where no fear existed previously - Wall Street. One by one, the 'too big to fail' firms were failing and needed to be bailed out by the American sheople. Following Bear Stearns we had the nationalization of Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae; then we had Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc filing for bankruptcy protection; next an $85 billion loan to American International Group Inc; U.S. Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson calls for the government to spend billions of dollars to take toxic mortgage assets off financial companies to restore financial stability; Goldman Sachs Group Inc and Morgan Stanley become bank holding companies regulated by the Fed; The FBI says it is expanding its probe of possible corporate fraud related to the U.S. mortgage market collapse; [maybe that struck some fear in the Masters of the Universe]; Washington Mutual is closed by the U.S. government in the largest failure of a U.S. bank.

Henry Paulson and Ben Bernanke then create the fear of catastrophe in Americans and push for Paulson's Plan, which is seen by the American sheople for what it is, the biggest power grab by the Banksters in American history and a scam to pay those who created the fiasco in the first place; the U.S. House of Representatives rejects the $700 billion rescue plan and rightly so. Dow Jones posts its largest point decline ever while the S&P 500 has its worst day since 1987 with an 8.8 percent drop, which creates more fear among both the Congress and the sheople. Those in the know know that the Plunge Protection Team caused this worst day drop to create an atmosphere of fear.

Amid this state of panic and fear, along with bribes and backroom kick backs, the President and Henry Paulson used fearmongering to get the U.S. Senate passes the bailout plan which was soon followed by House approval and signature by George W. Bush.

In short, those who had no fear, Wall Street, used fear to push through the biggest financial scam in American history. But they aren't through yet. An evern bigger scam and more fearmongering is coming our way. The dollar is going to be purposely collapsed to bring economic chaos to the United States. During this crisis, solution will be offered by the very same people who brought us the TARP - the Jewish Wall Street Masters of the Universe through their agent ex-CEO of Goldman Sachs, Henry Paulson.

They will once again use fear to push Americans into accepting the new currency for the new North American Union which will be tauted as the cure for what ails America. Those still unfortunate to be holding US Federal Reserve Notes will be offered a choice - trade in their now worthless dollars for the Amero, at a few cents on the dollar or accept total loss.

This modus operandi - creation of a problem, ensuring panic and fear, offering of a solution by the same people who caused the problem and, because of the conditioning of the sheople, the solution is accepted, because the sheople like to be led to safety.

This is the same m.o. used during the Great Depression caused by the Federal Reserve restricting credit, then offering the solution through their Jewish president, Franklin Rossenvelt, and the results were the New Deal, or communism disguised as social welfare programs with the resulting alphabet soup bureaucracies.

This is the same m.o. that was used seven years ago during 9/11. International Jewry, through their Zionist agents - the Mossad - and the Bush Administration, plan and carry out the attacks of 9/11, blame, through the Jewish controlled media - "19 Arabs with box cutters" - a conspiracy theory, but an acceptable conspiracy theory, and the result is a 'war on terror is launched that will not end in our lifetime, accepted by the sheople because of the fear of smoking gun in the form of a 'mushroom cloud' over an American city.

Americans, wake the heck up, you're being scammed through fearmongering. In fact, I think a coup occurred with the passage by the House of Representatives on October 3, 2008 of the TARP.

"The fear of man bringeth a snare." Proverbs 29:25

What is a snare?

a noose (for catching animals), (literally or figuratively); by implication a hook (for the nose) Strong's Concordance of the Bible

Through fear, an animal as strong as a bull can be led around by the nose. If only Americans realized that they have the power of a bull, if they would simply let go of their fear.
