Case Against the Fed and Fractional Reserve Lending Banking System / Politics / Central Banks

By: Mike_Shedlock

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleFractional Reserve Lending (FRL) is fraudulent. Indeed, FRL in conjunction with micro-mismanagement of interest rates by the Fed is the root cause of the financial crisis we are in.

Unfortunately many do not see FRL for the fraudulent scheme that it is. Here are the most common defenses against the allegation of fraud.

Urgency of the American Monetary Act / Politics / Recession 2008 - 2010

By: Richard_C_Cook

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleOn Thursday, April 23, 2009, Stephen Zarlenga, director of the American Monetary Institute (AMI), delivered two briefings on Capitol Hill on the American Monetary Act that AMI drafted and that may be introduced as legislation during the current congressional session. This single measure has the potential of bringing together the tens of millions of people who have realized it’s our bank-run debt-based monetary system that lies at the center of the financial rot that is destroying our republic and its values.

Global Monetary & Financial System: Reviewing Ellen Brown's "Web of Debt:" Part I / Politics / Global Financial System

By: Stephen_Lendman

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleThis is the first of several articles on Ellen Brown's superb 2007 book titled "Web of Debt," now updated in a December 2008 third edition. It tells "the shocking truth about our money system, (how it) trapped us in debt, and how we can break free." Given today's global economic crisis, it's an appropriate time to review it and urge readers to digest the entire work, easily gotten through Amazon or Brown's webofdebt.com site. Her book is a remarkable achievement - in its scope, depth, and importance.

Are The Financial Markets Addicted to Deception? / Politics / Market Manipulation

By: T_Anthony_Michael

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleThe current self destruction of Crony Cowboy Capitalism has struck a death blow to the Anglo-American Corpocracy.  This in turn will result in the long awaited demise of UK-US Imperialism and, ultimately, cause the downfall of the British/American Empire.  The consequent deterioration of Civil Society by way of the ongoing financial/economic, political/social and moral/religious bankruptcy will lead to the inevitable collapse and dissolution of Western Civilization as we know it.

Is the United States Preparing For War in Pakistan? / Politics / Pakistan

By: Global_Research

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticlePakistani President Asif Ali Zardari will undoubtedly come under renewed pressure to allow US military forces to wage war within Pakistan when he visits Washington this week for a trilateral summit meeting with President Obama and Afghanistan’s Hamid Karzai.

For weeks, the US political and military establishment and the American media have been mounting an increasingly shrill campaign to bully Islamabad into fully complying with US diktats in what Washington has redefined as the AfPak (Afghanistan-Pakistan) war theater.

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleDr. Jack Rasmus writes: Calls for nationalizing the banking industry have been bubbling since at least last September 2008, when the current Banking Panic began in the wake of the Lehman Brothers bank collapse, the initial AIG bailout, and the quick absorption of Merrill Lynch-Wachovia-Washington Mutual banks by their larger competitors, Bank of America, Wells Fargo, and JP Morgan Chase.

By: LewRockwell

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleOn Friday, January 30, as an unwelcome surprise to both of us, my husband, Mr. Comic Mom, was laid off. Three weeks and over 100 résumés later, he had two job offers. Although he has not yet found a so-called permanent job – although, really, all jobs are temporary – he is making more money than he did, at a job that’s been promised to him through the end of September. The weekend after his layoff, he was already polishing his résumé.

Obama Attacks Hedge Fund Chrysler Capitalists / Politics / Credit Crisis Bailouts

By: Peter_Schiff

The Obama administration singled out hedge funds as the bad guys this week in its attempt to reorganize Chrysler. The accusation falls comfortably into the administration's view that unfettered capitalists on Wall Street and poor planning by short-sighted CEO's are responsible for our financial problems.

Swine Flu: When Government Plays Doctor / Politics / US Politics

By: Dr_Ron_Paul

This week, concerns about swine flu have dominated the media and many government officials. While the American people should be made aware of infectious diseases and common sense preventative measures, much of the hysterical reaction from government only serves to remind us how detrimental to your health it can be when government plays doctor.

Internet Blogging Equated With High Treason in Many Countries / Politics / GeoPolitics

By: Pravda

Being a blogger can be criminal even if bloggers do not attack the authorities of their countries. Any slip of the tongue or a side remark can be enough. This is a peculiar feature of authoritarian regimes that see the Internet as a threat to their existence. People may say anything they want on their blogs, and their points of view may not always coincide with the official point of view of a certain government.

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleMichel Chossudovsky writes: The WHO announced on May 1st that it will be dropping the designation of "swine flu".

The Geopolitics of Pandemics / Politics / Global Pandemic

By: STRATFOR

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleWord began to flow out of Mexico the weekend before last of well over 150 deaths suspected to have been caused by a new strain of influenza commonly referred to as swine flu. Scientists who examined the flu announced that this was a new strain of Influenza A (H1N1) derived partly from swine flu, partly from human flu and partly from avian flu strains (although there is some question as to whether this remains true). The two bits of information released in succession created a global panic.

The Real Undreported Pandemics, Not Fake Ones Like Avian and Swine Flu / Politics / Global Pandemic

By: Stephen_Lendman

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleIn his April 29 Global Research.ca article, F. William Engdahl discussed "Flying Pigs, Tamiflu and Factory Farms" and shed light on the current swine flu hysteria - hyped by the same folks who engineered the 2006 (H5N1) Avian Flu scare that had more bark than bite. But it proved hugely profitable for drug makers like Roche and Gilead Sciences, the company Donald Rumsfeld led as chairman from 1997 - 2001 and remains a major shareholder. Although he won't discuss his "private finances," he's likely benefitting handsomely from the current panic.

Flying Pigs and the World Health Organisation (WHO) / Politics / Global Pandemic

By: F_William_Engdahl

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleWHO takes a page from a Michael Crichton Novel - As the late great American poet Yogi Berra might have put it, ‘this just gets absurder and absurder.’ The international agencies supposedly responsible for monitoring worldwide dangers of new pandemic threats, the WHO and CDC are acting like the directors of a Hollywood ‘B’ grade sci-fi movie or the author of a copycat version of Michael Crichton’s Andromeda Strain novel. The global panic over outbreak of a new human-to-human Swine Flu pandemic is increasingly revealed as a likely operation in mass psychological terror whose only beneficiaries are the few global pharmaceutical giants that are in the business of peddling so-called ‘antiviral’ drugs—Roche, SmithKlineGlaxo and Novavax most prominently. The losers are the rest of us normal folks.

G20 Meeting Governmental or Mafia? / Politics / Global Financial System

By: LewRockwell

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleDo you remember the 1957 meeting of Mafia bosses in Apalachin, New York? About 100 of the Big Bosses met at the home (it must have been large!) of local Mafia chieftain Joe Barbara, and the local police became curious when they noticed numbers of expensive cars with out-of-town license plates at the Barbara home. The cops, acting on the principle of "arrest now, ask questions later," arrested as many of the men as they could catch, and a prosecutor named Milton Wessel subsequently tried them on conspiracy charges.

How America was ‘Sold Out’ for $5.2 Billion to the Financial Industry! / Politics / Credit Crisis Bailouts

By: Lorimer_Wilson

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleThis article is a follow-up to my recent piece on “America’s Financial Oligarchy” which was a synopsis of Simon Johnson’s “The Quiet Coup” on how the financial industry has effectively captured our government. This follow-up article is an edit and review of a lengthy 231-page report prepared in March 2009 by the Consumer Education Foundation (see wallstreetwatch.org/reports/sold_out.pdf for the full report) on how, over the years, the ‘Money Industry’ as they refer to the financial oligarchy, sold out America to gain such control.
