Tests find Bisphenol A in majority of soft drinks

From: Globe and Mail

The estrogen-mimicking chemical BPA, already banished from baby bottles and frowned upon in water jugs, has now shown up in significant levels in soft drinks.

Tests by Health Canada scientists revealed the highest levels were in energy drinks, the often caffeine-loaded beverages that have become popular with teenagers seeking a buzz and athletes chasing a quick pick-me-up. But the study also found the controversial compound in a wide variety of ginger ales, diet colas, root beers and citrus-flavoured sodas.

Bisphenol A was detected in 96 per cent of soft drinks tested, in quantities below regulatory limits. But a growing body of science suggests the chemical may have harmful effects at levels far below those limits. …

Soft-drink cans are treated with a BPA-containing liner to prevent drinks from coming into contact with metal.

California raw almonds must be treated, judge rules

From: McClatchy

The new rules required almond handlers to achieve a stricter reduction in salmonella bacteria count, by pasteurizing the nuts before shipping. Pasteurization methods range from blanching and steam treatments to use of chemicals.

“While contamination in almonds is not common, the industry determined that aggressive measures were necessary to prevent any other occurrences,” the almond board stated at the time the rules were imposed.

Organic almond growers, though, claimed in their lawsuit filed in September that the new requirements “functionally shut them out of the organic market.” The growers stated that “substantial amounts” of their almonds could not be sold in the last two years.

“(Organic almond) handlers have built their businesses, in part, by marketing raw almonds to customers interested in buying food that is minimally processed, free from the use of chemicals, and not exposed to heat treatments, roasting, or other processes,” the lawsuit stated.

Devvy Kidd: Will you let the federal government take possession of your medical records?

From: News with Views

The “great” crash of 1929. The “great” depression. Strange choice of words for such events. So much misery and suffering for all but the elite.

But, did it come about the way Americans have been led to believe?

The remedies and policies put into place by FDR only exacerbated the problem, but every move was carefully calculated by the shadow government. As Lawrence W. Reed, says in his essay, The Great Myths of the Great Depression, FDR’s “tinkering” prolonged the depression. The banking cartels ran our lives then and nothing will change until as Andy Jackson said, “The Bank is trying to kill me, but I will kill it.” It is our monetary and banking policy failures draining the life blood from this republic and until the central bank is killed, we will continue towards complete financial armageddon.

Please do take a few minutes to read these pages from Reed’s outstanding essay. This is critically important information to understand because tragically, America is about to walk down the same path again, courtesy of ignorant and corrupt members of Congress led by their cool party animal in the White House. By the way, have you noticed that not only does the Messiah never travel without his teleprompter, Obama aka Soetoro aka and so forth, seems to avoid the White House? Look at how many flights he has already taken on Air Force One for appearances! Insiders say his “conferences” are little more than form over substance and accomplish nothing. It sure gives the impression of the ‘Great One’ looking busy. Perhaps all his travel is so he won’t have to pretend he knows what he’s doing while in the Oval Office.

Does the New Deal’s “National Industrial Recovery Act” which created a massive new bureaucracy called the National Recovery Administration have a familiar ring? It should. The impostor president, Barack Hussein Obama aka Barry Soetoro aka and so forth, has launched a newer version of that failed product. This one I call the gang rape bill is officially titled, The American Recovery and Reinvestment Tax Act of 2009. Of course, it is no such animal. But, like Roosevelt’s NIRA, Obamaination’s ARRTA will give birth to even more useless and costly government agencies.

Sec. 3001. Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology sets up another useless bureaucracy. See here. The goal is to have everyone’s medical records entered into a massive, electronic government data base. Now, I don’t know about you, but I have a real problem with this because I know the real goal is to track medical care and treatment under a totalitarian government. This would mean an already incompetent government is allegedly going to manage some 300 MILLION medical records using technology that CAN be hacked, never mind some nosey busy body snooping into your medical records or “sharing” with some agency or foreign government down the road under world government.

David Icke: PLEASE DON’T RIOT … IT’S JUST WHAT ‘THEY’ WANT

From: DavidIcke.com

PLEASE DON’T RIOT …

… IT’S JUST WHAT ‘THEY’ WANT

‘What you fight, you become.’ – David Icke

[…]

The global economic collapse is designed to trigger a stream of ‘benefits’ to the Illuminati agenda. One, as I have said from the start, is to use this as an excuse to impose a global economic dictatorship controlled by a world central bank. But there are many other ‘solutions’ and connected ‘benefits’ that are planned to be exploited and we need to be streetwise to them.

The one I want to emphasise here is the need to stay calm and react peacefully to what is happening. This is not easy when there is so much stress and fear around with regard to the economic present and ‘future’, but we need to do it all the same or we will walk straight into a massive trap that has been set for us.

Let’s get this straight: They want you to riot in response to the unfolding economic catastrophe and we are already seeing people falling for this.

Why would the authorities want people to riot? Readers of my books over the years will see the answer immediately. They want an excuse to bring in a fully-fledged Police State all over the world and people who riot in their desperation (instigated invariably by agent-provocateurs) are just the excuse they are looking for.

Be very, very aware of anyone who starts rioting, or encourages others to do so, amid peaceful demonstrations. Who are they and why are they doing this when it is handing all the aces to the system to impose a Police State? They are either stupid or agents of that State.

Skousen: Glenn Beck Fails to Deliver on FEMA Camps

World Affairs Brief, March 6, 2009 Commentary and Insights on a Troubled World.

Copyright Joel Skousen. Partial quotations with attribution permitted. Cite source as Joel Skousen’s World Affairs Brief

GLENN BECK FAILS TO DELIVER ON FEMA CAMPS

There are much more important and verifiable conspiracies in the world without having good conservatives diverted to such tripe. One important issue is the growing number of secret prison camps and holding facilities being built by our government. FEMA is the prime agency now directing this hidden agenda. I have previously reported in the WAB the significant travel and efforts I have made to substantiate prisons and camps that are valid. They do exist, though the major camps number less than a dozen, and they include a large camp clearly visible from I-15 just north of Nellis AFB in Las Vegas. Others are on decommissioned military installations. Interestingly enough, two years ago these large camps were removed from the official list of government prison facilities, even though the government still maintains them. They now join the growing list of FEMA camps of which there is no official government listing. Why the secrecy?

That said, it is important to note that there are many bogus camps being paraded as a threat. The lists and pictures circulating the internet of some 300 camps, claiming that nearly any fenced enclosure with barbed wire on top is a future concentration camp, is simply not credible. I’m convinced that agents of influence feed publicity-seeking radicals disinformation like this to discredit real threats.

TV and radio talk host Glenn Beck’s recent foray into the subject of FEMA camps is a study in how the establishment exercises subtle and not-so-subtle pressure to keep legitimate conspiracy evidence off the air. This week Beck announced on “Fox and Friends” that he was going to air his research about FEMA camps the next day, giving the distinct impression that he had found a credible threat of future tyranny. Here’s the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f03zZA___Ho

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f03zZA___Ho]

Beck declares he attempted to “debunk these FEMAS camps” because he is “tired of hearing about them,” but was unable to do so. “We now for several days have done research on them… I can’t debunk them.” This was something new for Beck to admit. As a perennial conspiracy basher on the issue of 9/11, Beck is the last one (other than government shill Rush Limbaugh) that I would have expected to expose the FEMA camps. To Beck’s credit, he was one of the few on Fox who would attack President Bush and unconstitutional government actions whenever he could. I think he is sincere, but a bit of a loose cannon in his rapid fire speaking style–which doesn’t lend toward careful analysis when he gets carried away.

Obama Lied; the Economy Died

From: Washington Times

I am trying to capture the spirit of bipartisanship as practiced by the Democratic Party over the last eight years.

Thus, I have chosen as my lead, the proposition: Obama lied; the economy died. Obviously, I am borrowing this from the Democratic Party theme of 2003-08: “Bush lied, people died.” […]

President Obama told a whopper last week when he claimed he was not for bigger government. As he said Tuesday night: “As soon as I took office, I asked this Congress to send me a recovery plan by President’s Day that would put people back to work and put money in their pockets. Not because I believe in bigger government – I don’t.”

This he asserted though the budget he proposed the next day asks for federal spending as 28 percent of gross domestic product (GDP), higher by at least 6 percent than any time since World War II. Moreover, after 10 years, Mr. Obama’s proposed spending as a percentage of GDP would still be 22.6 percent, nearly 2 percentage points higher than any year during the Bush administration, despite the full costs of the terrorist attacks of Sept, 11, 2001, the Iraq and Afghan wars and the rebuilding of New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina.

Consider also his assertion in his not-quite-State of the Union address that:

“My administration has also begun to go line by line through the federal budget in order to eliminate wasteful and ineffective programs. As you can imagine, this is a process that will take some time. But we’re starting with the biggest lines. We have already identified $2 trillion in savings over the next decade.”

But, lamentably, a few days later, The Washington Post reported: “A senior administration official acknowledged yesterday that the budget does not contain $2 trillion in spending cuts over the next decade. Instead, the figure represents Obama’s total efforts at deficit reduction, including tax hikes [of more than $1 trillion] on families making over $250,000 a year. It also includes hundreds of billions of dollars ‘saved’ by not continuing to spend $170 billion a year in Iraq.”

Only a big government man would think of calling a trillion-dollar tax increase a spending cut or “saving.”

Karl Denninger: “We WILL see the S&P trade at one hundred if we start to see firms like GE go down … due to the INTENTIONAL and WILLFUL malfeasance of our lawmakers”

From: Market Watch

Here It Comes (GE)

This is what is going to happen, as I noted in BlogTalkRadio yesterday afternoon, if “The Bezzle” [from the word ’embezzle’ – ed.] is not removed from our system NOW.

Take a look at that folks.  That’s a snapshot of today’s volume for June GE $2.50 PUTs.

That’s over 52,000 contracts traded today, controlling 5.2 million shares.

They were purchased for about 30 cents, which means that the price has to be under $2.20 for them to go “in the money”.

This is a bankruptcy bet on General Electric by the third week of June.

General Electric is a stalwart of our financial and industrial system.  A bankruptcy by GE would be catastrophic for our economy and capital markets.  The follow-on damage with suppliers and customers would be even worse.

If “The Bezzle” is not brought under control right d— now this is what is going to to happen to company after company.  We WILL see the S&P trade at one hundred if we start to see firms like GE go down the toilet. …

It is my intention to guarantee that these actions and intentional and willful blindness is documented so that when these failures occur, which I have predicted and provided a path by which they can be prevented, occur due to the intentional and willful malfeasance of our lawmakers and policy “wonks”, the people can correctly hold to account the people responsible for their unemployment, homelessness and hunger.

Celente: “The Greatest Depression” Under Way

The Greatest Depression Under Way
Gerald Celente
3-3-9

KINGSTON, NY, 2, March 2009 – “The Greatest Depression” that The Trends Research Institute forecast, well before Wall Street or Washington would acknowledge recession, is upon us.

The global financial markets are collapsing.

All the pundit’s cautious predictions and business media’s hopeful expectations at the New Year for an economic turn around and imminent market bottom were dead wrong. There will be no turn around in the second quarter of 2009 or 2010 or 2011 America and much of the world has entered “The Greatest Depression.”

The global financial system, built on endless supplies of cheap money, rampant speculation, fraud, greed, and delusion is terminally ill and will not be coaxed into remission by stimulus packages nor restored to health by government buyouts and bailouts.

Today, the MSCI World Index of stocks in 23 developed nations fell 4.9 percent to 713.75, the lowest closing level since March 2003, and its Emerging Markets Index slid 5 percent. The Dow followed, plunging 300 points, closing below 7,000 for the first time since 1997.

There is no stock market bottom in sight. The only figure that can be forecast with confidence is that the Dow won’t reach zero!

As the crisis worsens, governments will take draconian measures to prevent total economic collapse and public panic. We have cautioned the likelihood of such measures before. But the rapidity and severity of the economic unraveling now demands immediate attention.

Expect massive bank failures, runs on banks, and bank holidays. Even if deposits are FDIC insured, quick access to money is by no means assured. At minimum, have reserves on hand for emergencies.

Trendpost: When the ship is sinking there are very few options: Life boats, life rafts, life preservers and for the late to act, possibly a few pieces of floating debris to cling to.

We are trend forecasters, not certified financial advisors legally empowered to provide such advice. Although gold prices declined today some $15 to $925 per ounce, we forecast that gold will be one of the few life saving investments that will continue to increase in value, reaching $2,000 per ounce and beyond.

Che! The West’s Fatal Embrace of Communism

Obama’s “Change” is code for the Communist NWO. This is what is meant by “Progressive.” Leftists who want to “change the world” are not told it is going to be much worse. They are destroying the society that gave them freedom and prosperity; they are “change agents” for poverty and dictatorship.

From: Henry Makow

Americans can’t expect to avoid destruction as long as they continue to embrace Communism in all its myriad disguises.

Symptomatic of the problem is a new four hr. 17 min biopic of Soviet Comintern agent and terrorist Che Guevara. Rather than make movies about genuine American heroes, Hollywood is celebrating people dedicated to the destruction of Western Civilization.

Movie critic Mick LaSalle of the San Francisco Chronicle cannot understand why Director Steven Soderbergh made the movie:

“If Soderbergh made as idol-worshiping an epic about George Washington or Abraham Lincoln – actual heroes with tangible, positive legacies – people would gag at the naive treatment.. Instead of making the case for Guevara as a hero, Soderbergh just assumes we all agree. The movie is the communist guerrilla version of the Stations of the Cross, in which we see Guevara at various stages, enduring various hardships. The invitation is not to think but to admire, and maybe to worship.”

This is not the first time Hollywood has presented this ruthless killer as a saint.  In 1969, Omar Sharif played “the most controversial rebel of our time” with Jack Palance as Castro. Then, there was “The Motorcycle Diaries” in 2004 and at least a half-dozen made-for-TV films.

Communists always portray their demented drive for world domination in terms of serving the people. Surprisingly, many suckers swallow this bait. But, why do these dupes include the US corporate media establishment?

WHY THE MEDIA (AND EDUCATION) SOFT PEDDLE COMMUNISM

The US mass media (and most corporations) are controlled by the central banking cartel, i.e. the Rothschilds, Warburgs, Rockefellers etc. These are the same people who sponsored Communism.

The guiding principle behind world events is their plan to translate their monopoly over government credit into a world monopoly of power, business, culture and religion.

These bankers use a Hegelian dialectic to achieve their end. They created both Capitalism and Communism as thesis and antithesis.  Their aim is a synthesis, combining the political and cultural tyranny of Communism with the appearance of Capitalist free markets. China or even Cuba may be the end model for the New World Order.

In 1953, Ford Foundation President, H. Rowan Gaither told Congressional Investigator Norman Dodd that his instructions were to use “our grant-making power so to alter our life in the United States that we can be comfortably merged with the Soviet Union.”

This is why the Communist Party term “political correctness” has become part of our lexicon.  Why the elite media and foundations promote feminism, homosexuality, pornography and promiscuity to destabilize society. Why they sponsor “diversity” to undermine American identity. Why the education system is devoted to Leftist indoctrination; and conservatives have been driven out. Why the culture industries are dedicated to sex, violence, alienation, deviance and the occult. We’ll never know what we have missed in terms of cultural works that boost our sense of who we are and where we should be going.

Eustace Mullins relates this story: Early in his career, a NY publisher (who are all banker controlled) told his agent that it’s too bad Mullins had decided to go against them. Look at the success they arranged for such “high school” talents as Hemingway, Steinbeck and Faulkner. Unfortunately, Mullins would be consigned to the wilderness.

Rupert Murdoch, whose media operations are subsidized by the Rothschilds, said last week, “We are in the midst of a phase of history in which nations will be redefined and their futures fundamentally altered.”

Such anecdotes confirm that we are being dispossessed and prepared for servitude. Our culture, most of our assumptions about the world, are controlled by the central bankers.

GUEVARA, CASTRO AND THE CUBAN REVOLUTION

Fidel Castro came to power in Cuba only because of the covert help of New World orderlies in the US State Dept. and mass media. They cut off arm sales to Batista while at the same time allowing Castro to be supplied, partly by Russian submarines. This told the Cuban military which way the wind was blowing and they quietly defected.

Ron Paul: We Killed a Million Iraqis and that Pleased Bin Laden, Who Will Eventually Bankrupt this County

From: Raw Story

Paul noted that George Bush ran in 2000 on a pledge to end Bill Clinton’s nation-building, but then he “joined the idea that the American taxpayers — you — have an obligation to take care of everybody and police the world.”

“This is literally what bankrupts the country,” Paul complained. “It costs us a trillion dollars a year to take care of our foreign policy, and that cannot last.”

“The person most pleased with our foreign policy is Osama bin Laden,” Paul went on. “He said, ‘I’m going to get you to come over here and we’ll fight you on our sand, and we will do what we did to the Soviets.’ … He said he will do the same thing, he will eventually bankrupt this country.”

“So yeah,” Paul acknowledged. “We want to get rid of a bad guy in Iraq — we did. But … another one million Iraqis got killed. Believe me, they weren’t all terrorists. … But nevertheless, it pleased Osama bin Laden.”

Bob Chapman: Nothing More Than Inflation, Voodoo Finance, Smoke and Mirrors — “Half of the world’s wealth has been destroyed and we still are nowhere near the bottom”

From: The International Forecaster, February 28 2009

The so-called greatest economic boom in history, which supposedly took place in the United States from the end of the early 1980’s recession to 2007, was nothing but an exercise in inflation and voodoo finance. It was a smoke and mirrors bull market based on Alice in Wonderland economics. The air is now being let out of the balloon as the man behind the curtain, the Fed Chairmen of that era, mainly ardent Illuminist Paul Volcker, and especially Mr. Bubbles, …Alan Greenspan, are now being revealed to us as the Great Oz, who in the fairytale movie turned out to be a carnival barker and balloon rider from Kansas. How utterly appropriate. So, how low will we now go? Will it be all the way down to the Dow 1,000 of the early 1970’s? Will we ride our way down to the Dow 2,000 of the late 1980’s? Or will it be down to the Dow 3,000 of the early 1990’s? Already, the past 12 years of gains has gone up in smoke, and this is just the beginning.

During this so-called boom period, our industrial base was destroyed by free trade, globalization, off-shoring, outsourcing, and both legal and illegal immigration, and we went from being the greatest creditor nation on earth to being the greatest debtor nation on earth during the Bush-Clinton-Bush triple whammy! By what definition is that a boom?! A mighty nuclear wind, generated by the thermonuclear explosion of fraudulent weapons of mass financial destruction devised by the Puppet Masters who own Wall Street, has blown away the smoke and shattered the mirrors, laying bare the fraud and deceit perpetrated against the American public and the people of the world, a boom based on snake oil salesmanship by our government marionettes, corporate sociopaths and megalomaniacal, satanic trillionaire psychopaths, the Illuminati, who are sacrificing our economy, and other developed and emerging nation-state economies around the globe, on the altar of world government.

The tide of economic tomfoolery has gone out, and the fraud and malfeasance of our government, Wall Street and corporate America have been laid bare.

We have gone from a nation of well-paid factory workers and highly skilled machinists and sensible bankers, to hamburger flippers, Walmart greeters and flimflam men who peddle fraudulent toxic waste to unsuspecting financial institutions around the world. Our middle class is being systematically destroyed and impoverished by an economy based on money created out of thin air by a fiendish device called European-style, debt-based, fractional reserve banking, and the economy is now reverting back to where it came from — from thin air — as wealth is transferred from the hard-working public to a bunch of con-artists we euphemistically call bankers and financiers, via the stealth tax of inflation and outright investment fraud and market manipulation. Bubble after bubble has been blown up and busted by the policies of our malevolent Fed, a private banking organization, much of which is owned by foreigners, and run by a group of sharks, barracudas and piranhas who have been feeding on their ignorant American middle class sheople-fish in a feeding frenzy beyond description for almost a century. Our whole economy during the so-called boom period has been nothing but a sick joke. How do you like the punch line?

The fourth quarter produced a stupefying negative US GDP of -6.2% annualized. The so-called experts at the Bureau of Lying (Labor) Statistics told us it would not drop below a negative 3.8%. They only missed by 63%, yet another outstanding performance by our regulators as they continue their cover up of Illuminist machinations until such time as the Illuminati tell them to finally let the truth out to the sucker-dupe sheople. They just hit you right between the eyes.…

As we reported a month ago, America has entered depression as has many other countries economies. Over the past 20 months half of the world’s wealth has been destroyed and we still are nowhere near the bottom and all that the monetary and fiscal authorities have tried to arrest, the financial and economic fall has been unsuccessful. Real assets have been in a small part destroyed but most of the damage has been in financial assets. In the end leverage always destroys its user. Governments, business and individuals have been in the biggest inflation of credit in history. As the use of credit recedes in the US economy, that engine of GDP, the consumer, cuts back on consumption and buying falls from 72% to 70% of GDP, heading toward the long-term mean of 64.5% and that needless to say means we have a long way to go in this depression. As the economy and living standards fall and unemployment rises the Obama administration, Congress, and the privately owned Federal Reserve are going to throw trillions of dollars more at the problem only to be again unsuccessful. The days of open-ended credit expansion are over. Banks are not going to return to their methods of business that got them into so much trouble. Making matters worse for the consumer, wages have been stagnant for years versus inflation due to free trade, globalization, offshoring and outsourcing. Wages cannot rise with output and sales because production has been sent offshore by our transnational elitist conglomerates, who then keep a good part of their profits offshore to avoid paying American taxes. The very heart has been ripped from the American economy and all that is left is a hollow shell. The profits from any resurgence in the economy will nature to these conglomerates not to the workers. Nothing has changed. There still is no response from Congress. In fact it is the furthest thing from their minds. They have been bought and paid for or compromised by the bankers and Wall Street.

The global financial structure has imploded and there is no way to fix it short of purging the system, which should have been done 20 months ago. It wasn’t done because there is another agenda and that is to bring the world economy to its knees so that the people of all nations will be forced to accept One-World Government. This just didn’t happen this way; it was planned to happen this way.

Bob Chapman: We Watch Now As Funds Get Vaporized (Including Pensions) —”Right has become wrong, and wrong has become right, just as the Bible warned. Surely, we are in the End Times”

From: The International Forecaster, February 25 2009

Since 1997, real inflation, as opposed to ridiculously understated official inflation, has raged at a minimum of 8% annually, and has soared as high as 14-16%. This means that you have lost a minimum of two thirds of your 1997 purchasing power. So, if you invested $10,000 in the Dow components in 1997, not only would you have no gain whatsoever, you would have losses on the stocks which were dropped from the index due to poor performance and, in addition, to add insult to injury, your purchasing power has been reduced from $10,000 to approximately $3,000 in terms of 1997 dollars. In other words, that $10,000 you invested in 1997 will today only buy what $3,000 would have bought in 1997.

Effectively, anyone playing the general stock markets has been wiped out by this combination of lost capital gains and reduced purchasing power. Those who began investing after 1997 have done even worse because they have suffered major capital losses in addition to having suffered reduced purchasing power. So much for the much touted 10% average annual gains for stocks. By contrast, you could have bought gold in 1997 for about $300 per ounce and more than tripled your money at today’s prices. Your $10,000 would have become $30,000+, however, due to inflation caused by the Fed’s profligate increase in the money supply, which the Fed intentionally orchestrated in order to impoverish you and bring you to your knees so you will accept world government, your purchasing power would only be about $10,000 in 1997 dollars. So you would at least be even in terms of purchasing power. Certainly, $10,000 in purchasing power is a whole lot better than $3,000. This example is a classic illustration of how gold preserves your wealth. As you can see, failure to invest in gold, silver and their related shares is tantamount to committing financial suicide. The bankruptcy courts will soon be full of the tens of millions of US citizens who ultimately will ignore gold and silver as a safe haven, or who will simply lack the capital to invest in gold and silver in any case because they are in hock up to their ears, or because they have become unemployed, or both.

Pension plans, often heavily invested in stocks and real estate, asset classes which have seen tens of trillions of dollars disappear in a matter of months, are now so far behind in funding due to their ludicrous underlying assumptions about ROI (return on investment) that they are effectively bankrupt and will have to be bailed by the grievously under-funded PBGC (Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation), which of course can only provide pennies on the dollar unless another bailout is orchestrated to save middle class pensions, which is not going to happen, and these losses do not even take into account loss of purchasing power due to inflation, which is understated officially to screw retirees out of their social security benefits. Instead of a PBGC bailout, we more likely will see the US follow in the footsteps of Argentina by nationalizing private pension money, mixing it with government entitlements. If you were wondering where the elitists plan to park a large portion of those new treasuries being issued to fund all the bailouts, look no further than your IRA’s, 401(k)’s and your company pensions, which will be forced to purchase these treasuries as part of the process by which the elitists will nationalize your pensions. Also, as part of this process, the types of assets you are allowed to invest in will be greatly limited, and your pension will be overseen by your corrupt, bungling government, insuring a complete financial…. That way, you get the unspeakable privilege of owning dollar-denominated paper assets that will be vaporized along with Federal Reserve notes (aka toilet paper, aka “worthless paper”) when foreign owners of dollar forex all head for the exits to see who can dump their dollars the fastest as they try to purchase as many tangible, real assets as they can find in the US. You won’t know, of course, because statistics about foreign ownership in the US are, conveniently, no longer published by the FTC. However, you will find out soon enough as you are Zimbabwe’d and Weimar-ized. And that only addresses problems due to devaluation of the dollar. Wait until the interest rates skyrocket as hyperinflation takes hold and risk reaches new heights. This will collapse the treasury market, and the value of all your pension plan assets, which the government will have forced you to invest in treasuries, will go down in flames with it.
