The Slippery Slope: How Big Multinationals Destroy Entrepreneurs, Unions & Turn Free Market Capitalism Into Crony Capitalism (Fascism)

Its not just Monsanto's decision to put farmers and bees out of business when they decided that the globalization of agriculture would not be about feeding the world but instead about controlling the worlds food supply, right down to the very genes themselves!

Neither is it Walmarts globalized network of franchised disenfranchisement.

The entire system is structured this way, and the complex network of shareholders that own the banks and media have their clutches in most of the global retail scene nowadays.

When political leaders posture about creating entrepreneurs, its a type of victim blaming because unless they are prepared to tackle a system loaded in favour of the big players who finance their campaigns and lead their lobbying cash cows, then they really are taking the biggest dodge available.

This informative article from Sputnik explores the relationships that make the fat cats laugh in the faces of the activism boycott movements that usually fade out like a sack of wet mice.

Oil & Gas Piplines, How Can We Reconcile The Geography Of War, Refugees & Ambitious Planned Contrsruction Projects?

I'm posting this Mintpress News article by @mnarmuh to broaden the perspective on last weeks article "Why Syria?"

HERE is the link to the article online.

Don’t let anyone fool you: Sectarian strife in Syria has been engineered to provide cover for a war for access to oil and gas, and the power and money that come along with it.

Editor’s note: This article has been updated to reflect recent Wikileaks revelations of US State Department leaks that show plans to destabilize Syria and overthrow the Syrian government as early as 2006.  The leaks reveal that these plans were given to the US directly from the Israeli government and would be formalized through instigating civil strife and sectarianism through partnership with nations like Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Qatar and even Egypt to break down the power structue in Syria to essentially to weaken Iran and Hezbolla. The leaks also reveal Israeli plans to use this crisis to expand it’s occupation of the Golan Heights for additional oil exploration and military expansion.

Podcast: Science, Conspiracy Theories, Vaccines, GMO's, Activism, Causes - Reconciling With Globalization

After initially resisting podcasts because they didn't seem a good fit with my personalty I've now embraced the opportunity they afford to cover a wide range of topics quickly and with stream if consciousness. And because a few people have asked me things over the last year or so that I just never got around to, and one two called me old fashioned....

I don't consider myself an activist, more a hobby journalist, or even (less glamorously) a scrapbooker.

But I have done alot of research, which must count for something. In that regard, these podcasts are not just my thoughts, they are what insights I feel Ive gained that could offer real benefit to commited activists open to this approach and open to better understanding the establishment they seek to take on.

How Is The Price Of Physical Gold Being Kept Artificially Low By Paper Contracts?

By Mike Finger on www.schiffgold.com 

The latest update from CME Group shows a huge outflow of gold held for delivery by Comex. There are now less than 6 tons of registered physical gold available for delivery. For every 207 ounces of gold claimed by paper contracts on the Comex market, there is only one ounce of physical gold in Comex vaults. This is the lowest “coverage” ratio in the history of the Comex.

What exactly does this mean for precious metals investors? The price of paper gold versus the price of physical gold is experiencing one of its biggest disconnects ever, because those paper gold contracts are so diluted. There’s never been a worse time to judge the strength of the fundamental strength of the physical gold market based upon Comex futures contracts.

If even a small fraction of Comex contracts were called in for delivery right now, there would not be nearly enough bullion to fulfill the orders. Major defaults on those contracts would occur, and the price of paper gold could collapse.

On the other hand, those left holding actual physical bullion would be find themselves part of a very prestigious minority.

You can read a good summary of this news onZeroHedge, which concludes:

And while we know what caused this epic surge in potential claims on gold – namely the relentless outflow in registered gold – what we don’t know is whether this is a systemic event, one which threatens the next Comex gold delivery request with an ‘insufficient product’ response, and a potential default, or simply a one day abnormality.”

Why Syria, The Specifics A Recap, Apart From The Broader Agenda.

In order to fully appreciate certain elements at play I'd suggest reading my former post on who really owns The Fed.

1) (top image) You guessed it: Oil and Gas. Syria is loaded.

2) (above) Alliances, gas pipelines and geopolitical strategic alliances. US/NATO encirclement of Russia.



3) Bankster Cartel, because as we know already, all wars are banker wars.

(Excerpt courtesy Adrian Salbuchi  as appearing in RT/op edge)

Syria’s Central Bank is state-owned & controlled – In other words, it manages its national currency so that it serves the Syrian people and not the Rothschild-controlled global bankers operating from their New York, London, Frankfurt, Tel Aviv, Basel and Paris hideouts.

This means that the volume of currency it issues is in proper sync with the true needs of real economy of work, labor, production and all that is useful to Syria’s people, instead of being in sync with parasitic, usurious, speculative foreign financiers. The latter seek to control local central banks so they can artificially limit the volume of currency available for genuine economic needs, especially the no-interest credit needed to finance useful things in the real economy: power plants, roads, gas works, housing, private enterprise and initiatives. This forces productive players – public and private - to have to resort to deadly interest and usury-based private banking loans whereupon the eternal debt chain starts to grow and grow as the so-called ‘sovereign debt crises’ that hit country after country throughout decades of time eloquently show.

By artificially distorting the volume of ‘public currency’ issued by sovereign central banks that generates no interest, countries are thus forced to resort to high interest bearing ‘private currency’ (loans) handled by the monopolistic private bankster cabal in the hands of Rothschild, Rockefeller, Warburg, Goldman Sachs, HSBC, CitiCorp, JP Morgan Chase interests.

Clearly, a very good reason for these parasitic banksters to want to take out Syria.

Canadian Economics Professor Sums Up The Nauseating Truth About ISIL In One Striking Quote.

Recent developments confirm what is known and documented: Washington is behind the Islamic State (ISIS) and at the same time it is behind the moderate Al Qaeda terrorists, which the Obama administration is supporting as part of America’s campaign against the Islamic State (ISIS). And they expect us to believe that they are committed to waging a campaign against terrorists

The Islamic State (ISIS) was until 2014 called al Qaeda in Iraq (AQI).

Al Nusra is an al Qaeda affiliate which has committed countless atrocities in Syria.  It is now considered by the Obama administration as the “Moderate Opposition”. 

America’s “anti-terrorist campaign’ consists in supporting a so-called “moderate” Al  Qaeda entity (Al Nusra)  with a view to going after another al Qaeda entity entitled The Islamic State, formerly designated as Al Qaeda in Iraq.  

“Al Qaeda is going after Al Qaeda”, and both wings of al Qaeda are supported covertly by US intelligence. 

Both ISIS and Al Nusra are protected by the Western military alliance. Both Al Qaeda entities are used to destroy Syria and Iraq. The air campaign allegedly against ISIS does not target ISIS, it targets Syria and Iraq, schools, hospitals, factories, residential areas, government buildings, roads, bridges, etc. 

Both Al Qaeda affiliated entities are being used to destroy Iraq and Syria as nation states.

The terrorists  are the foot-soldiers of the Western military alliance.

US-NATO-Israel are state sponsors of terrorism, providing training, weapons and money to various terrorist formations. 

The endgame is “regime change” in Syria and the fragmentation of Iraq.

Economics Of War: Gerald Calente Gets It, Why Doesn't The Establishment?

Well, the establishment does get it of course, but they don't take the knock, only the investors do.

Of course nobody has been more "right" historically than Calente, here he outlines the hammering the markets took in the last few days.

There will be rallies of course, but we move from the "recovery" narrative to volatility, and guess what's next?
