These people have some dangerous intellectual blind spots. <BR/><BR/>Human differences, culture, etc is one of them. Econ-think types seem to be completely barren of culture somehow and oblivious to how important culture and roots is to most human beings.<BR/><BR/>Another near-complete blind spot is the use of force underlying all property, law, civilization, etc. Without people willing to physically protect their property, there can be no economic exchange or barter or speculation or anything like that (why trade when you can take?). When good economic relations break down, people revert to the more basic form of behavior. <BR/><BR/>Somehow the second elephant in the room is always a surprise when he steps into view. 1929: Stock Market Crash.

Consider this thought experiment: 10 people, isolated on some island - each have 1 dollar. Each person has 10% of the extant money. One of these people is a banker who - magically! - takes it upon himself to extend credit to his fellow island dwellers. He loans each other person a dollar. How'd he get this extra nine dollars? Don't ask. Maybe it was from deposits made by his fellow islanders. Maybe he borrowed it from the Fed (who just made it up) at a low interest rate. But now the nine, each owe the one, one dollar apiece. After they have paid it back, they all have their original one dollar, and the banker has ten. He now has nearly 50% of the extant money.<BR/><BR/>Inflation is theft.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9430835.post-85571247352601471052009-02-05T06:36:00.000-08:002009-02-05T06:36:00.000-08:00Anonymous saidWe need a PDF of the AD online ASAP,...Anonymous said<BR/><BR/><I>We need a PDF of the AD online ASAP, to shove down the throat of everyone who</I><BR/><BR/>Won't work.<BR/><BR/>When pithy summaries are offered, the response is "What you are missing is an explantion of the mechanism."<BR/><BR/>When a full explanation is offered, the response is "Yawn.

Most don't have European passports and Australia is only taking the young and the cream. The US won't take them fearing an "influx of racists". So whites have no choice but to pay off the blackmail, because ultimately going to jail is a death sentence for a white person in a country where they only make up 6%. It’s a case of pay or die.<BR/><BR/>The reason why Steve's digging is so apt is that the US is now getting to a point where it cannot any longer afford these shakedowns, but whites are still a majority. So you can possibly turn the system. During previous decades the white middle class in the US quietly accepted the blackmail, but maybe they won't buy into it anymore.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9430835.post-6740658476962618022009-02-05T00:48:00.000-08:002009-02-05T00:48:00.000-08:00We need a PDF of the AD online ASAP, to shove down...We need a PDF of the AD online ASAP, to shove down the throat of everyone who starts spouting off about how the CRA could *DOUBLEUNPOSSIBLY!!!* have had anything to do with bad lending.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9430835.post-75666193154084434542009-02-05T00:26:00.000-08:002009-02-05T00:26:00.000-08:00jody sed:"there's a really strange dynamic startin...jody sed:<BR/>"there's a really strange dynamic starting to happen in america now, similar to what happens in south africa, where huge amounts of european generated money are being simply flushed away on the africans, by law of the government. yet, the various non-european groups aren't even the majority in america, so how is the same dynamic already in operation?"<BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/>It’s actually quite easy. The South African shakedown racket was a direct import of the American one. After Clinton forced Mandela on the whites, a host of African Americans with their white helpers arrived to implement the scheme down there. Steve is just getting to the juicier bits. After a while they left because African Americans don’t mix so well with their African brethren as they like to tell everyone. In fact African Americans generally disdain African blacks.<BR/><BR/>Xcept that in the US there is enough beef on the white carcass so that this can go on for quite a while without destroying the system. Not so in South Africa. The economy there was always rickety having gone through 30 years of sanctions and only 5 mio. whites to uphold it. Now the top 20% of whites have left because they are not keen on the wonders of diversity. So the system crashes. Zimbabwe is a depressing tale, but if you look at the fundamentals, it was a similar game only that the pickings were slim and the party was over almost after it began.<BR/><BR/>Steve is onto something big here.

Econ 101 -- increased demand, prices go up. (That's how the prices for houses in the housing bubble got so high.) <BR/><BR/>Increase in prices, of everything, houses, corn flakes, whatever, is the result of the money printing. Sometimes the phenomenon is referred to as "increasing the money supply." We generally call it "inflation."<BR/><BR/>Another way to look at increasing prices, i.e., inflation, is to view it as loss of purchasing power:<BR/>Since prices have climbed, you can now buy less stuff, (houses, cornflakes, etc.,) with the dollar in your pocket than the day you earned it. <BR/><BR/>So you have had your wealth, that is to say, the ability to get stuff, like corn flakes or houses, which you worked for and saved, transferred from yourself to the home loan borrower, who only could get the loan as a result of the FED money printing.<BR/><BR/><BR/>Yeah, FED money printing is absolutely a wealth transfer. But it's sneaky and hidden to most people, who misunderstand the nature of inflation. So it's great for the politicians. The plebes never catch wise, and the crooks in Washington get to buy votes with the new FED funny money.<BR/><BR/>What's not to like? Unless, that is, you're a dumb plebe, like me, who is watching his purchasing power of his savings being eroded by inflation, as well as taking a stock market hit.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9430835.post-33796120753182439012009-02-04T20:53:00.000-08:002009-02-04T20:53:00.000-08:00The time horizons of contemporary banksters are ve...The time horizons of contemporary banksters are very short.
