The colossal V-shaped recovery of the global stock markets in 2009 was indeed, the most remarkable feat, ever engineered by the “Plunge Protection Team,” (PPT). Step by step, the Federal Reserve, the US Treasury, and its key allies in the “Group-of-20” nations, rescued the world’s top financiers from their own greedy mistakes. The staggering size of the G-20’s rescue package, totaling about $12-trillion, was equal to a fifth of the entire world’s annual economic output.
The G-20 bailout included capital injections pumped into banks in order to rescue them from collapse, the cost of soaking up so-called toxic assets, guarantees over debt, and liquidity support from central banks. Tossing aside all arguments of “moral hazard,” the PPT utilized all the weapons in its arsenal, to prevent another “Great Depression,” including accounting gimmickry, and the “nuclear option” of central banking – “Quantitative Easing,” (QE), to rescue the global economy.
History will show that the US stock markets reached bottom on March 10th, when Fed chief Ben “Bubbles” Bernanke and influential members of Congress, exerted heavy pressure on FASB to water-down rule #157, thus, allowing American bankers to once again, value their toxic mortgages, at their own discretionary judgment. The switch-back to “mark-to-make-believe” accounting was the most expedient tool allowing the banking elite to essentially cook their books, - concealing losses, and using discredited models to inflate their balance sheets.

Ben "Bubbles" Bernanke. Great stuff.
ReplyDeleteThe only "Bubbles" Bernanke should be making are ones he makes while wearing concrete shoes!
ReplyDeleteYeah no shit the idot said just last week if the gov't had complete control back when the housing market started this whole fiasco none of this would have ever happened. This from the people whom cannot deliver mail and turn a profit.
ReplyDeleteI don't believe that March 10th will be the low.
ReplyDelete@ 6:25 you better believe it, I've been saying this to many here that we won't see the March lows again but a lot of idiots here were saying a collapse imminent in June 09 then Nov 09 and now they say its mid Feb 2010 and as usual nothing will happen Mid Feb. Just a reminder we are sill waiting for ( which should have happened last year):
ReplyDeleteEconomic Collapse
Stock Market collapse
Us $$ collapse
Commercial real estate collapse
Derivatives collapse
California collapse
Arizona collapse
International trade collapse
Pension collapse
Hyperinflation
Martial Law
etc etc
Don't waste your time waiting for the above...
7:12, what you don't seem to grasp is that a collapse just doesn't happen overnight and come with a bang, it is a gradual descent. The fall of other empire(s) was a gradual process.
ReplyDeleteAs far as I am concerned, with the high unemployment in CA, it has already collapsed. It's all just hanging by a string, so to speak.
No, nothing will occur as dramatically as you insist, as what you envision would best be compared to a Hollywood movie, and everyone knows such things are not real.
The real damage being done at this moment is to individuals and families, not the "general economy." The end result will be in the long run, lower tax revenues, which is already starting in some states (has been in CA for a whlle now). You just cannot conceivably hope that the government can run forever if more unemployed people are not paying taxes.
Come on man, GET REAL!
@8:36 Things may not as you say happen in a bang, but the gradual fall seems to have halted. the Future will show that the current situation was just a minor bump in the US empire. Other empires you mentioned had ups and down and they rules the world for thousands of years....its just the begging for the US of A.
ReplyDeleteAnon 7:12 PM,
ReplyDeleteDon't waste your time waiting for the above
Then why are you wasting your time at this site?
All those things may not happen, but risk is high all around.
Hey 8:49, I cannot correlate emotions with the words typed over the internet, but it sounds like you're in denial.
ReplyDeleteYou really think, using logic and reason, that this is just the beginning of the USA? Where do you get your proof from? Where do you get your research from?
Is this false belief arising from your ego? Your ego would like to believe this is true, but reality sings a different tune.
This isn't a game you know. It's not a game to try to prove people wrong or to have "won" some sort of contest. This is reality. Welcome to reality, where real people suffer and real people go hungry, get hounded by creditors and other entities, and cannot afford to buy the same things you may be able to afford because you're simply not being affected to the same degree.
Oh and as for 9:43, I think the reason why 7:12 keeps coming to this site is to prove us all "wrong." He thinks this is a game to see who can win and prove us all wrong.
In the end though, he will eat his own damn words.
If you think this all could have been averted only a couple of years ago by government you are not only delusional about the economy but the way government operates. There were far too many forces at work here. This pyramid scheme has lasted far longer than it shoudl have. It is ripe for the fall. And oil is just one more precipitator of this event that, considering our world leaders and political systems, there is not much we could do about it, other than wake up and smell the coffee.
ReplyDeleteATTENTION ALL.......
ReplyDeleteLEAKED OFFICAL UNEMPLOYMENT RATE FOR ANNOUNCEMENT
UNEMPLOYMENT RATE 9.1%.............yes people 9.1% its all turning arround now.
The Oligarchs that rule the USA do their bidding via fear.
ReplyDeleteThe laundry list of events posted above by our blog troll can happen literally overnight if that is what our owners decide they want to happen.
We are living inside a failed corporate state. Our invasions and occupations around the globe are to do our handler's bidding in the hopes that they won't pull the plug on us. Eventually when we have outlived our usefulness they will. Our only real asset anymore is the death and destruction we can dispense on brown people around the globe.
While I believe it is their intent to bleed the US dry slowly it is an easy matter for them to pull the trigger on another false flag anytime they want to expedite matters. They are a sick group of psychopaths so I believe they adhere more to the pulling wings off a fly scenario for now.
If they do pull the trigger on a fear operation like 9/11 or Jr with the underwear, the sheeple will be too scared to leave their homes, the US will be in Martial Law, etc.
Frightened and deceived lemmings will be begging the puppet president for help from the evildoer stooges at any cost. Everything you think you know is false. There is no terrorism against the USA that is not self inflicted. No Muslim ever attacked the US. If you don't know that by now you are a deceived tool. Find a rattle and go sit in the corner.
We are living in a giant prison cell. The warden is fear. The drum beating, the politics, are just there to give the false impression of freedom. Our leaders are mis-leaders and they don't give a damn about you. They care about doing the bidding of their masters.
Whatever they can do to gain more power by taking freedoms and resources from you is what they will be feverishly working on the next couple years.
What will be left is an empty shell and starving people. We were not defeated by any foreign power but deceptions, manipulations and lies.
All this because the sheeple could not think for themselves and believe all the BS the Oligarchs are pimping via the greatest weapon ever built, your TV.
It is too late to correct things. The Oligarchs have already made it clear what they want, central control via a world fascist/communist state. We are most of the way there already.
The minor league puppets like Ben Bernanke add insult to injury as the minority of informed people watch the sheeple throw roses and compliments to the liars and cheaters placed in power to do the bidding of the Oligarchs.
Kiss the good life goodbye. It is over. Your children will be non-thinking drones and slaves. There is no other outcome possible.
There are a lot of comments on this blog about how we are a Welfare state and how illegal aliens and single moms have dragged American into the sewer. Of course this is just a minor part of our massive problems and a scapegoat.
ReplyDeleteIn the future this will not be an issue. Non productive people or those that disagree with the state will be rounded up for orderly disposal. Or just starved out. Research how tyrants in the past got the job done. Like Stalin. That is the future for those that somehow think they are going to glide by. When people are scared to death and hurting the first thing that flies out the window is charity.
If you haven't read the final chapter of Martin Armstrong's free book, "The Greatest Bull Market in History", have a look there.
ReplyDeleteIt puts in perspective how every empire even back to the romans has asked too much for it's labor when it's at the top of it's game, and has eventually been undermined by cheap labor elsewhere. No empire has escaped the decay that sets in when work flees to where employees are cheapest.
Where do all you f*ckers come from? We're all going to be rounded up and destroyd like Stalin? How do you know? And if so, why aren't you getting the fudge out of dodge? Seriously. Move to tropical island in the middle of nowhere and start your planning THERE.
ReplyDeleteAll empires fail and fail badly.
ReplyDeleteAgreed.
ReplyDeleteIt is nothing new.
12:57 that sounds good. Please define in detail how that can be done. Of course with a global dictatorship it cannot. By 2012, or 2014 at the latest, DARPA will be done with their database of every person on the planet and all will be tracked via the Global Information Grid (GIG). Nanotech, the next evolution or de-evolution of the human species depending on how you look at it. Fun times ahead!

Ha ha, okay, whatever.
ReplyDeleteIf you are really interested try this:
Sell all of your non-essential crap, including any car, boat, RV, or skateboards, books, CD's, guns and gold.
Buy a plane ticket it the f*ck out of here.
There, it's settled. If you have a mate and/or some friends bring them along. Settle somewhere where the "new world order" is not brewing.
I guarantee you that even if "the global grid" could track you to some enchanted island, which it cant, they would not waste the time or resources to bring you back to a supposed fema camp. Come on, get real.
Alternative: build your own sail boat. Live on it. Fish for food. Sail around the world, and or settle into a uninhabited or lowly inhabited place. Move to the outback. Live in the rainforest. Disappear off the grid.
Or: sit and whine about how you are controlled and there is nothing you can do about.
Offer up a plan to escape before our boarders are closed then. Talk is cheap. Who has the skill or resources to buy a fancy sailboat/yacht and do a Tiger? Get real. Pick someplace specific. You are owned property, owned by the bank of England. You can't just trot away. Slaves can't do that. No matter where you go the US wants its cut.
ReplyDeleteSell all commodities for fiat funds/accounts that will be tracable right to your front door? Hmm.
I will say that probably the dumbest thing I have ever done is stay here knowing what is coming. I admit I am ignorant about escape options. Google searchs and the like don't offer a whole lot of advice. Sure, if you have millions, or foreign contacts, experience traveling globally, then you are a great advantage.
Luckily I am old enough that I already have had a great life for 3/4ths of it.
Live in the rainforest LOL. OK Tarzan I'll get right on that! (no offense, meant in friendly humor)
The government twitter blog was hilarious!
ReplyDeleteLet's not forget the lessons learned about the G20 Stormtroopers in Pittsburg last year:
ReplyDeleteWitness the video and remember you WILL see these same atrocities on your own street in the near future: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=etv8YEqaWgA
This was the first casual use of a Long Range Acoustic Device (LRAD) against a general, NON-protesting public. The lack of outrage is their mandate to do it again. What new devices will they bring to your neighborhood? What kinds of agents will they be gassing YOUR sons and daughters with? And precisely WHO are these masked and armored men in uniform, and to what dark lord have they sworn their alligence??
3:22 you just have to use your imagination. Do some research. As you said, you have no one to blame but yourself for staying put in the worst police state in the world. There are better countries to be in right now. But, if you really want to be off the grid and/or avoid the global collapse and all its effects, you will want to be away from any urban areas. So that means being in the countryside, in the rain forest, in the outback, on an island, in the mountains, and so on. The more remote the better towards the end, obviously. For the time being places like Costa Rica and Belize aren't bad, and you can still be only a drive away from civilization. You could even live in a small village or town. Chile is relatively peaceful as well. Those are just a few suggestions.
ReplyDelete"Sell all commodities for fiat funds/accounts that will be tracable right to your front door? Hmm."
That doesn't make sense, really. What you are doing basically is selling what you have in order to relocate/re-establish, buy a sailboat, obtain materials in order to build a new place elsewhere, etc.
This idea that you can be traced anywhere anytime therefore you mine as well stay put is silly. The choice is yours if you are serious enough.
