PLOTTING AND SCHEMING IN THE MIDDLE EAST

 
Henry Kissinger is a nasty little man, that has indirectly caused the death of millions of people over the past 45 years. His name will remain in infamy for his actions in Southeast Asia, Cyprus, the Balkans, the Middle East, and as a member of the Global Elite that was enthusiastic in bringing about the Third World War.

If we have kept up with the news, we should be aware of certain things. 
The terrorist group ISIS, or Daesh, was created in order to destabilize the Shiite Muslim governments in Iraq, Syria, and elsewhere. ISIS has been openly supported by the Sunni Muslim governments of the Middle East, such as Turkey, Yemen, and Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabia has been one of it's strongest supporters. The Saudis have also supported AlQaeda and other terrorist groups that have been opposed to Shiite Muslims in Iran, Iraq, Syria, and elsewhere.
The US has gotten involved in what looks to be a Muslim civil war.

THE TRUE FACE OF SOCIALISM IN VENEZUELA

 

 




Socialism ruins nations, impoverishes people, and corrupts societies. Only the Elite have anything to gain in a Socialist-Marxist society 

People are protesting the government's failed food distribution scheme. People are looting supermarkets, only to find them empty. The government has made a plea to the UN for emergency shipments of medicine. Everything is in short supply because of government mismanagement. From the very beginning of his administration the late dictator Hugo Chavez began planting the seeds of an economic meltdown, and his plan has been continued by his bungling and incompetent successor Nicolas Maduro. 


"THERE IS NO FOOD"
 

Even after all this chaos, misery, pain and suffering, the Socialist disaster in Venezuela continues to have strong support from misguided celebrities, including economist Joseph Stiglitz. All they can see are the well intentioned social programs and wealth redistribution. They refuse to understand how those well intentioned, but ultimately futile Socialist ideas have wrecked the country. Those same celebrities would readily support a similar sort of "Socialism" to be implemented in the United States, and they found the perfect representative in Bernie Sanders

At some point, people must realize that Marxism and all the ideas the it generated: Socialism, Communism, Fascism, and European style "Democrat Socialism", are ideas that have failed every time they've been tried. No matter how many times history has proven this point, misguided people will continue to live in their own fantasy. However, it appears that Venezuelans have learned bitter truth in the hardest way possible. Next time you, or someone you know, thinks a little Socialism is a good thing make sure you read this article again. 


"WE ARE DYING OF HUNGER"


THERE IS NO FOOD

LANA DEL REY, ANOTHER WORTHLESS CELEBRITY



Lana Del Rey has decided to stop flying the American flag at her shows, because Trump is in office and that makes her feel uncomfortable. 
What a bunch of bullcrap.  Never disrespect the flag or the nation it represents. 
A person's loyalty is to the nation, the Constitution, and the people of the nation. No one is required to swear an oath of loyalty to Trump or any other elected official. This is a Republic, not a Monarchy or a dictatorship. No president deserves an oath of loyalty.
I will continue to fly the flag and honor my country; regardless of the worthless celebrities out there.

WE STILL NEED CASH, EVEN IF THE ELITE WANT TO STEAL IT ALL



On July 14, 2017 CNN featured a very disturbing article on its website, "Visa offers restaurants $10,000...if they stop accepting cash". For anyone familiar with economic theory and history, this is a terrifying development, but not completely unexpected. What the Establishment is really worried about is bank liquidity if the economy begins to sour. I have mentioned this before in a previous article, and nothing has changed since that time. Everyone should prepare themselves for the coming economic turbulence by getting away from Wall Street, and putting their money into physical assets.
 
Billionaire investor James Rickards, whom I have previously quoted in my articles, wrote a correctly named article  "The Elites Are Privately Warning About a Crash". Unfortunately, the geniuses at the Federal Reserve with their infinite wisdom, have created the perfect Doomsday scenario. As the author points out, the pace of currency production is not sustainable, nor was it ever. Over the past few decades the Federal Reserve has flooded the market with paper money, and cheap credit which acts the same as paper money. They have devalued the currency, so prices appear to be constantly rising; however, the truth is that they have impoverished the poor and middle class by reducing the buying power of our money.  

Columnist David Stockman also writes about the frightening economic future in his article "The "Chuck Prince Market" Redux — Only More Dangerous". This author focuses on the same issue from a slightly different perspective; however, the results are the same. Massive injections of new currency, and private and public debt that has surpassed $100 Trillion, will cause the economy to ultimately crash.

THE ECONOMY IS READY TO TAKE A DIVE

Once again, Lew Rockwell has featured a great article.
The US economy is on the brink of collapse, the gangsters at the Federal Reserve have all but ruined the economy. Cheap credit, limitless government handouts, and a permissive system that has allowed massive gambling by hedge funds, have created an inflationary bubble that is ready to burst.

Getting through the political stuff at the beginning of the article, the economic analysis begins at about the halfway mark. David Stockman does a marvelous job of breaking down the most recent economic indicators in a clear and concise fashion. The Keynesian fanatics that are now considered "experts", have no clue as to what is really going on. All they understand is that pumping the economy with money and cheap credit will somehow give GDP the appearance of growth, They can then declare that good times are here to stay, and we will all get rich together because in the increase of the national average.

THE PARIS AGREEMENT: JUST ANOTHER SCAM


On June 2, 2017 President of the United States Donald Trump announced the US would withdraw from the Paris agreement on climate change. The world media, and most of the political class, have reacted with shock, outrage, and predictions of doom and gloom. The conventional wisdom is that the world needs this agreement in order to save the planet from an ecological disaster. It should be noted, very few people have chosen to read the actual text of the Paris Agreement. In this article I have chosen to use the actual text of the treaty, instead of trusting the opinions of the uninformed.

There are many that remain skeptical about the whole thing, and some of those skeptics have impressive qualifications. Many scientists and political leaders have refuted the various environmental agreements as being a scam. This raises several questions, questions that need accurate answers. What is the Paris agreement all about? What is its intended purpose? How is it connected to the Kyoto Accords? Why are the Elite so eager to impose this agreement on nations around the world? Why is the greater part of the agreement concerned with finance and global monetary transfers?

Basic Environmental Goals
The Paris Agreement is a continuation of a long line of agreements, including the Kyoto Accord, made under the auspices of the United Nations. These various agreements supposedly will unite the nations of the world in improving the environment by reducing carbon emissions. The environmental goal (Paris agreement line 17) is to somehow reduce the planet's temperature to 2 degrees Celsius below pre-industrial levels, and to keep world carbon emission to about 55 gigatonnes by the year 2030. Each member nation will have nationally determined contributions to the plan (lines 22-31), and those plans must be submitted by the year 2030.

There are several questions that everyone should ask when reading the above paragraph. First and foremost, the Earth had experienced a "Little Ice Age" between the years circa 1250-1850. This Ice Age would have ended just as the Industrial Revolution was getting started. Using a bit of common sense, it would seem the Paris Agreement wishes to plunge the world back into an Ice Age.

A working group of the Third Assessment Report of Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, an agency of the United Nations, has published an extensive report for policy makers. This report is rather biased in that it attempts to downplay the naturally occurring phenomenon that affected climate change in the past and continue to do so in the present. Instead, the authors attempt to make their politically motivated theories "fit the facts" by focusing on human activities. This report, and others like it, are used by politicians to make policy decisions that will affect the planet. Perhaps the information in that report should have been presented in a more unbiased fashion so that policy makers can make better informed decisions.

Nationally Determined Goals
According to the Paris Agreement, and in keeping with the Kyoto Treaty, each nation affiliated with the climate accords must determine how they will contribute to the reduction of carbon emissions(Lines 22-31). There is no set value, nor any sort of standard, each nation can use whichever criteria they choose. This has led many to question the validity of agreements in which major polluters, such as China, can avoid responsibility.

Financial Manipulation
The biggest area of contention is the requirement that developed nations be subject to financial penalties if they miss their goals, and they must provide financial support to developing nations; regardless if those developing nations are major polluters. Canada withdrew from the Kyoto Treaty for this exact reason, and the US refused to ratify the Kyoto Treaty for the same reason.

The Paris Agreement calls for a collective quantified goal from a floor of USD 100 billion per year, taking into account the needs and priorities of developing countries; (Line 54). In other words, the Paris Agreement would create a new class of "Super Welfare". This new welfare would be on a global scale, and the recipients would be any nation that is classified as developing. Many voices have been raised protesting this figure, saying it is not enough to support the needs of developing nations in their attempts to reach their Nationally Determined Goals. Some estimate that developing nations will require much more than $500 billion a year, by the year 2050. Taken to it's logical conclusion, this system of welfare would create a vast money pit in which trillions of dollars would eventually disappear. The only beneficiaries would be the leaders of underdeveloped "Third World" nations that would siphon off billions of dollars into their own private bank accounts, while their nations and peoples continue to be underdeveloped and poor. Regardless of how much money is made available, a society must have the ability and willingness to put forth the necessary effort in order to achieve whatever goals have been set for them. Unfortunately, in many countries around the world environmental issues are of little importance to people that must struggle to find food, water, and the basic necessities of life.

An Inescapable Conclusion
For the record, I support any legitimate effort to ensure a clean environment; however, the Paris Agreement on Climate Change is not legitimate. It is a scam. It sets no rules, no standards, and no real goals. It's only apparent purpose is to transfer money from "rich" countries to "poor" countries. Trump was correct in rejecting the Paris Agreement, it may be the smartest thing he'll do all year.
