Bill Black On Foreclosuregate: Calls For The Immediate Termination Of Bernanke, Geithner And Holder
Bill Black, who will soon, together with Neil Barofsky, be a guaranteed shoe-in for the POTUS/VP position (both as independents, of course), was on the Ratigan show today, following on his op-ed from last week (here and here) calling for the long-overdue nationalization of Bank of America, and discussing the rampant fraud at the heart of mortgage gate. And contrary to ongoing lowball estimates from the like of JPM and Goldman, Black provides numbers about the bank liability that are simply stunning: "Credit Suisse says that by 2006 49% of all mortgage originations were liars loans. When independent folks study fraud, it is in the 80-90% fraud range. That means there were millions of acts of fraud. Those loan frauds occurred because the banks created incentive structure for the loan brokers to bring them the absolute worst of the worst loans, and to lie on the application forms... These frauds came from the banks, and they propagated through the system through a series of echo epidemics...This fraud spread through the system and that's why we have a crisis in foreclosures. This stems from the underlying fraud by the lenders in mortgage loans to the tune of well over a million cases a year by 2005."
Furthermore, Black points out the glaringly obvious, that the Fed should not be in charge of any investigation into mortgage fraud, due to its "massive" conflict of interest, to the tune of $1.5 trillion in MBS/agencies held on the Fed's books, which would be immediately null and voided if rampant MBS fraud is indeed uncovered. Which is precisely why the entitlement of the Fed as supreme regulator (as inspired by the financial generosity of the Wall Street lobby) as part of Frank-Dodd was the one single most destructive decision ever made, and equivalent in many ways with electing America's very own tyrannical despot, whose only interest is making the multi billionaires, into trillionaires, and leaving everyone else in the cold through the eliminating of the savings class and the destruction of the reserve currency.
And it goes much further... to the very top of the US ruling oligarchy in fact. Which is why, as we have claimed from day one, nothing less than a complete reset of the entire kleptocratic system can give any hope for a fresh start. The general public is starting to finally realize this, unfortunately with the dawning realization comes anger, and with anger comes aggression. And from there, broad civil "discontent" is merely a thin white line away. Which is why, we again reiterate our belief, now that America has completely missed its chance for a peaceful resolution, that the reset will have to go first and foremost through the Fed, whose end however will be precipitated by nothing less than an all out social upheaval. We agree with Black's conclusion: "fire Holder, fire Geithner, fire Bernanke, get people in who will enforce the rule of law."
Alas, it is too late. America has proven it has failed as a society in which checks and balances work when Wall Street dangles billion dollar bribes to corrupt and greedy individuals. And just like the market is stretched so far that it is always seconds away from a flash crash, so the entire US society is now mimicking our stock market, and the possibility for an all out social flash crash is no longer trivial.

Black for President.
we already have a black President.
True Black is more than skin deep.

SILVER REPORT: FRAUD, CORRUPTION & QE TO INFINITYhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mtxSM0dw7YY
If you go black, you won't go back.
LOL!
Yeah. What the Fuck is this. Many belong in JAIL. And that starts with Hank Paulson, under Bush.
And it continues with Lloyd Blankfein and Neel Kashkari. Who's got the balls. So now we talk about Black.
Simply Pitiful. Black, White, I don't care. Put the crooks in Jail. Start with the triplets.
And then continue with Bernanke and Giethner. Add a little Phil Gramm and Snow. Just getting started. Yup.
Public hangings ala mussolini.
Infections with biological agents and caged in a lab for observation.
I thought it should be Paulson, Kashkari, Blankfein, Bernanke, and Geithner who should be hung.
Oh Yeah, I forgot the other scumbag, Hank Greenberg from AIG. What a puke.
Duplicate post
Instead of hanging, you could just make each one of them eat 1M dollars. In small denominations.
Public hangings ala mussolini
Mussolini was not hung: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C0pO23w75SI
Technically he was, but only after being shot.
Hangings are only ok if the noose is tied around their balls. I assume they are mighty large???
rocker...I hear you! We all speak the same language....Jail is too good...Im thinking French Revolution! Heads need to roll...
But really it's all about short-term vs. long-term. I believe if we want to continue as a going concern as a nation, we need to changes horses here in mid-stream.....right now. However, if they do not care or foolishly think the short term will take care of the longer term, then contuinue the ride to hell in a bucket....(im enjoying the ride!)
What is fearfully obvious is that The Fed has lost control. Fuel inflation so they have a reason to hike rates which is the only thing they have....now that rates are negative The Fed's last stand is the equity markets.
Can you NOT feel the tension and pull in the markets daily? the so-called PPT cannot prevent these flash crashes but they are ALWAYS picking it up after a fall....
The Fed has deemed themselves one giant sponge! Soak up the extra shares....
but cmon...someone has a shitload of inventory and it's not the HFT jack-fucks either!
I have a feeling this market action going in a NW action in a tight range just like 2004-2007...fighting the desperate fed....that is how the phrase should read.
We're still waiting on Barry.

a protest into gold breaks the back of the fraudulent welfare state and ends the reign of terror created by central planners.
Gold will certainly cause some problems, but not enough of a problem as they can legislate gold ownership. They have done it before and they *will* do it again.
In the modern era, there is one and only one weapon which scares the bejesus out of government, and it is a tax-revolt among even a small percentage of Americans.
That day is coming.
a tax revolt comes from refusing to invest capital for the purpose of income or capital gains.
as it relates to gold ownership being made illegal, i do not care as i will not comply. I will defend myself with force if anyone attempts to take my property. they have done this once to my ancestors. never again. i will not allow it. this is the cost of liberty.
HAHAHA!
Buying gold will "break the back of the fraudulent welfare state".
Yeah, pay Goldman Sachs cash for some of their gold so you can bury it in the back yard.
That'll show 'em.
Funny.
You libs are funny, funny people.
why bury gold when you can trade it for things that you want?
when we stop transacting in fiat currency then our resources cannot be fractionally (reserve) lent. Converting to 1 ounce of gold from an existing bank account removes approximately $10,000 of M3 from the system by pressuring banks to further recall loans in order to meet reserve requirements, and diminishes the value of existing M1 further through dilution as the gold vendor deposits the new fiat into a new bank. Unless the new bank loans this money, then the $1,350 sits dormant. In order for the system to work, banks must be making more loans then they are recalling. Gold conversion on a massive scale cripples these efforts.
if enough folks do this it will break the back of the welfare state by forcing economic contraction and the subsequent tax revenue contraction.
no tax revenue, no welfare state. got it?
aren't you the same idiot that defends Keynesian economics?
These guys print their own money. They do not need our taxes. The better thing to do is to sell all stocks and stay out of the market. They can not have a market without us.
Unfortunately, investing has become gambling and most people can not stop. Ask yourselves. Can I stop? If not you are a gambler.
when productive workers convert all non-working capital to precious metals it both cripples the system and drives up the fiat value of the metals which are bought.
Big-Government-Welfare-loving Robin Hood do-gooder dipshits like The Monetary Red need us very, very badly. He certainly cannot be generous without our wealth as he would never think to donate his own.
Better yet, if you want to bring them down
Stop all health insurance payments. If sick start calling doctors and bargain, it's cheaper. Don't forget, insurance companies are financial institutions and capitalize on human fear. If you are sick prone stay in the system.
Case and point, a set of X-rays for my daughter were billed to the insurance for $1400. 20% copay=$280. Same set of x-rays negotiated in cash with no insurance involved, $148.
Take all your cash out of the big banks.
Sell all stocks.
Buy silver and gold coins
None of the above is illegal.
well put.
Last first, I'm no Austrian, but I certainly do not defend either Republi-Keynesianism or Demo-Keynesianism at this point.
Forget tax revenue. The government will borrow and print what it needs. That goes back to the Revolutionary War.
If you want to bring the system down it's simple: pull your money out of the bank and stop paying your debts. Coordinated non-payments of consumer credit combined with a run on consumer deposits would bring down any bank within a few weeks at most.
...converted into gold for safe keeping. so you agree. "a protest into gold breaks the back of the fraudulent welfare state and ends the reign of terror created by central planners."
Goldman Sachs is no match for the Bank of China if they were to dump fiat toilet paper and buy gold (as they may be doing secretly right now). The Bank of India is doing this as we speak with the $USD, and so are others.
the welfare state cannot exist without keynesian money printing. keynesian money printing is dependent upon infinite amounts of loans expanding exponentially. obviously, this is not sustainable. The pain is coming.
How much pain? enormous amounts the longer we allow this fraud to be drawn out over years and years. I would not be surprised if by this winter or next, old folks are freezing to death because they must choose between paying their heating bill or eating bread.
this is a sick, twisted system of fraud, with the promise of "free lunches" all around and a "chicken in every pot". Obviously, this promise is going to be broken.
the "right" thing to do is to "starve the beast" by withdrawing true wealth (capital) and buying gold. This will "break the back" of the fraudulent welfare system sooner rather than later so we can get back to free trade among individuals. This will better empower us to truly help our neighbors in need.
consider this: if Trillions of $USDs were not tied up in U.S. Treasury Bonds supporting the Welfare State, this capital would be in the private sector because it would have no other place to go. The Dow Jones Industrial Average would be at 100,000 and everyone would have a helicopter in their back yard. Hurricane Katrina victims, for example, would not need to rely on central planners who currently have a monopoly on both "force" and incompetence. The abundance of wealth would increase the generousity of fellow Americans to unseen levels, and dwarf financial outpourings towards Haiti's hurricane victims and Bali's tsunami victims by comparison.
instead, we are paying ever-expanding interest payments on nearly $15 Trillion with approximately $160 Trillion in unfunded liabilities to the further enrichment of The Federal Reserve and extended members of the International Banking Cartel.
how's that working out?

Well said, Chop!
thanks, i-dog.
Hey MonetaryHead-Blow Me!
don't forget to junk him for good measure.
Agreed Monetary. The Borg said it best when arguing about gold....
"IRRELEVANT"
What really needs to change is our structure of borrowing. We need to go from debt based borrowing to public control of funds, a la Greenback system. A gold backed system would still have banksters at the helm, encouraging the government to spend spend spend on war war war.
As Farrakhan said: "[those banksters] are sending your babies....to die....for BULLSHIT. For interest!"
how does gold encourage this? please, explain.
A system where private interests (banks) control the money supply encourages spending regardless of what it is backed by or if it's backed by anything. Not to mention the fact that it is a very few elite that own almost all the gold. They would control the money supply.
Private banking is the problem. A system where the government issues its own currency is much more sane. At least in that system printing more money would pay for public goods- there would be no debt. And no external incentives to spend for no reason (war). Nowadays we don't make a dent on any debt due to astronomical interest payments which solely benefit banksters.
i disagree.
First, the practices of fractional reserve counterfeiting, fiat money, and centralized money planning, along with Welfare State that these enable, are the problem. Because these frauds exist, "rich" people gain access to free money (leverage) to which others do not have access, all under the guise of "helping the poor". Of course, this is "The Greatest Lie Ever Told". If we eliminate these fraudulent practices, then open up regional economies to competing currencies including gold and silver, we will restore liberty in America. If we do this, over time, those WITH merit at the bottom will win, and those WITHOUT merit at the top will lose.
As I mentioned above, if Trillions of $USDs were not tied up in U.S. Treasury Bonds supporting the Welfare State, this capital would be in the private sector because it would have no other place to go. The Dow Jones Industrial Average would be at 100,000 and everyone would have a helicopter in their back yard. Hurricane Katrina victims, for example, would not need to rely on central planners who currently have a monopoly on both "force" and incompetence. The abundance of wealth would increase the generousity of fellow Americans to unseen levels, and dwarf financial outpourings towards Haiti's hurricane victims and Bali's tsunami victims by comparison.

The Welfare State cannot exist without keynesian money printing. keynesian money printing is dependent upon infinite amounts of loans expanding exponentially. obviously, this is not sustainable. this is a sick, twisted system of fraud, with the promise of "free lunches" all around and a "chicken in every pot". Obviously, these promises are on the eve of being broken and leading us ever-closer to economic collapse by the moment.
MOST IMPORTANTLY, your concerns about the hoarding of gold/silver, in a system where these metals are used freely for trade, are misplaced.
Consider this: without a Welfare State, for example, unproductive individuals will not procreate because they will not be able to feed their children; and if they do, their children will starve (barring any philanthropic intervention). This fact will discourage unproductive, anti-social behavior, and encourage productive behavior. Productive individuals will be paid in the finite amount of gold/silver and move up the socioeconomic ladder.
conversely, productive individuals will have many children, and their gold/silver will be divided among those children. If the individual children are not productive themselves, then eventually (perhaps over several generations) they will exhaust their inheritence and move down the socioeconomic ladder. The trajectory will continue until they demonstrate productive behaviour again so that they may be rewarded with gold/silver.
Of course, rewards can come in the form of other barter assets and services as well (besides gold/silver), anyway, but the outcome is the same.
Importantly, those productive individuals with gold/silver can make individual value judgements as they relate to helping their neighbors in need. Unlike the Welfare State, they can descriminate between the widow/orphan versus the drug addict.
A spirit of rewarding that productive behaviour, which perpetuates mankind, and punishing that bad behaviour, which burdens our progress, is the closet we can come to perfecting the organic efficiency and stability of both peaceful free trade and the advancement of civilization within the boundries of earth and beyond.
Opening up our regional economies to competing currencies, including gold and silver, and eliminating the fraudulent practices aforementioned, will be the greatest step towards restoring liberty in America again where it once flourished.

Great Point NOTW!
"nationalization of Bank of America, and discussing the rampant fraud at the heart of mortgage gate."
Tyler you're sounding more and more and more like the spooky dude (Soros) himself.
http://www.theblaze.com/stories/beck-dissects-george-soros-his-mr-potter-moment/
nationalization (or receivership if you prefer) is the price paid by insolvent banks that have govt insured deposits. it works better than bank runs or crony capitalism (see u.s. 1931 and nordic countries late '90's vs. japan then and u.s. now).
Depends. If the nationaliaztion is solely to conduct an auction for market price of the assets of a failed institution, then sure, it'll probably be beneficial... However, if the purpose of the nationalization is nothing more than taking a "share" in the institution, propping it up for a few years, feeding it full of liquidity, and then getting out, effectively not punishing the failure of the institution and at the same time costing tax payers significant money against their will, then it's a different ballgame... or, worse yet, just selling the assets at pennies on the dollar to members of the club... (which is the end game here and what will happen unless we somehow grow spines soon).
At this point, I'm not sure how to feel about nationalization... It may be our best option, but that might not be saying much...
our centralized banking system of fractional reserve counterfeiting in fiat money that extends to the periphery of TBTFs is a farcical pig in lipstick. this is NOT "private enterprise", capitalism, or free trade.
There is no reason we should allow for the privatization of profits and the socialization of losses.
all banks that were insolvent (all of them!) should now be nationalized as they are simply an extension of the fraudulent Federal Reserve, anyway, offering none of the benefits to Americans taxpayers who shoulder all of the risk (with such programs as FDIC "insurance").
again, the entire system is a scam. the sooner we get control of all of it, the sooner we can dismantle it.
I, too, am entirely against communism as we all know (most of us, anyway!) it is doomed to fail, but this hybrid situation where we get all the pitfalls of communism whilst simultaneously enriching corrupt private bankers is the greatest moral hazard ever known to mankind.
absolutely tragic.
Agree. Where can we find someone like that?
they would get shot in the face if they ever had a chance at making a real impact within the current system.
We WILL NOT find them through the self-nomination process currently found in politics... It's kind of like women that complain they only meet the same kind of men... I wonder why that might be? It's not magic...
*golf clap*
"golf clap": LOL!
Was this not the cat who had 1000 scumbags doing the perp-walk from the S&L scandal a few years back?
Yes. When perp walks actually happened.
Unfortunately one is convinced that perp walks WILL NOT happen this time around. Even Enron saw 30 people arrested. Lehman/Bear Stearns = ZERO.
The reason of course is because the regulators are as culpable as the perpetrators. Valukas report, noted that the FRBNY (led by geithner) noted "issues" with Lehman in 2007 (what did they do about them:SFA). The report also noted that Hank Paulson was very worried about LEH in 2007 (what did he do:SFA).
Those are only 2 tangible examples. There are a million more, where the regulators (from the SEC to the FED to Treasury to FDIC) failed in their duties to the point of culpability.
As Tyler noted, the system should have been revamped 2 years ago. It would have been a horror and times would have been very tough. By now, we would be healing instead of extending and pretending. Change, at this juncture will come with a much heavier price tag, and i am not merely referring to the monetary tag.
@lizzy
Haven't you heard, perp walks are so yesterday. Now they just lawyer-up, write a check for $67M (admitting no wrongdoing of course), and get back to the yacht club for a good laugh with the boyz.

good comments lizzy.
Lehman/Bear Stearns = ZERO
Not true. Cioffi and Tannin were both arrested and tried. And found not guilty. Of course, they're both up to their armpits in civil suits at the moment, but jail time is not the same as some meaningless civil judgment.
the feds also couldn't convict ted stevens (one prosecutor killed himself over it). but they managed to get five enron convictions and the only one that walked after that (so far) had to kill himself to manage it. much of this is the poor legislation that defines white collar crime: "the rich get richer; the poor get prison". lizzy's larger point still looks pretty strong.
+1 So true. From the state banking departments, to the state insurance departments that turned a blind eye to exotic crap mortgages and non-monoline insurance products, to the financial market regulators who allowed unregulated CDSs to trade OTC..They are all culpable.

Interesting stuff...
Yes, I thought so.
Hey Trader Joe.
Just a question about the 5th of November. What's the occasion? Are you guys going to have a Beer-N-Brats day?
Seriously.
You have to watch the clip that Bob started this little conversation on. Apparently (I haven't seen the movie in a couple of years), the November 5th date is relevant in the movie because it used to be some sort of independence day in that society, but it didn't fit the meme of the fascist regime, so it wasn't celebrated anymore. The people had allowed their national soul to be lost...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/V_for_Vendetta
http://splashpage.mtv.com/2009/11/05/remember-remember-the-5th-of-novemb...
(2nd more relevant)
I said this on another post a week or so ago, but it amazes me sometimes that many of our treasured sci-fi movies predict the diminishment of freedom and the increase in fascism - 1984, Blade Runner, V, etc., etc. And yet we fail to make the connection that their predictions apply to our own existence...
V is not my favorite movie, but it's damn good and fits our present better than any other I can think of, like a glove.
Well, it applies more then Field of Dreams... ;)
You guys are awesome but NO, NO, NO.
Too much drift I cannot allow it. Here is what underpins it. Guy Fawkes:

I tried to start something there. How about town hall meetings across the nation. Remember, they are all asleep. Time is short.
Wakey, wakey.
You might want to invite your Rep. You know, the one with laryngitis. They all have it so offer them an invite they can't refuse. No turn up, you're out. Make sure your local TV reporters are there. Show the film before the crusifictions.
In reply to Doggis' post below, I made some suggestions.
I hear ya, I used to see some promise in the MeetUp model. Now I'm thinking we've passed the point where incrementally developing public awareness will be adequate. The facts are rolling out at exponentially increasing speed--who would have guessed that the details of bankster crimes would be revealed as they have been for the past few weeks?
It seems to me that we are now in a race against the folks who would buy their way out via their congress people, fed, etc.. I'd like to see things like this:
http://inventorspot.com/articles/graffiti_research_lab_5502
Homemade equipment based upon widely available technology. As for the movie, pretty much everybody has already seen it, I think, which is what I particularly like about the symbol.
Town Halls sponsored by ZH? What format are you thinking? Even groups like moveon.org took years to develop critical mass for nationwide meetings.
You need to cut the legs out from under the education system that gives validity to the politicians' actions. As a result, your "guests" at the meetings would need to be the banking/keynesian shills and they would get a sore ass before leaving. The problem of course is that it is a "no win" situation for these people to appear... why risk looking like an idiot when all they have to do is trot out on CNBC or wherever, spout off at the mouth to a larger audience, and accomplish the mission? Why risk being exposed? It's going to take a lot of cheese for these people to commit career suicide before being forced to commit career suicide (their failed ideologies come to an abrupt light). Maybe the first few defector rats get to see the light of day afterward.... but the majority are going to be dismissed as outright hacks... of course, this is after the world has collapsed, unfortunately.
In other words, it's going to have to be more of a symposium/lecture + public Q & A session... the problem with that is getting people to show up. If there is meat for the sharks, then they'll show up (e.g. high profile incumbent) just to bitch/vent. But, otherwise, they'll keep getting pounded by infomercials while they sleep.
Yeah,
I saw that too and thought that it was a Frontline documentary. Thought about changing my avatar to the mask, but the surprised WTF? cat says it all.

John McCloy,
I will not abandon the war cry, bitches.
Gold Bitches.
End the Fed, Bitches.
End corruption, Bitches.
RULE OF LAW, most of all, Bitches.
On my own, I am already a bitch of the elite. Together, we are formidable. To not believe that is to cave, to be a bitch. Even if we are doomed, I will not be their bitch. As long as I know what they are up to, I will not be their bitch.
I am willing to try real capitalism.
We wouldn't go back now for any amount of money, or anything else
Welcome aboard Millie. Every one of us that choose to be awake bitches the fewer true penitentiary punks remain to sell themselves some security, 1 pack of Marlboro's at a time. Besides, this means that there will be awake and prepared folks to answer the call when it arrives.
Give the ponzi a great case of MS, bitchez.
I think it's time to check out of the game. I'm getting a small farm with some crops and livestock. Well water. Hopefully totally self-sufficient.
When money itself is corrupt it's time to live without it all together if you can.
Indeed. Fuck them all. United we stand.
I'm ready anytime "they" are. As an objectivist, of course, I am prohibited from initiating action. On the other hand, I am more than willing to reply in-kind.
but that is the dilmena..won't be a physical thing..people let their fun bux do the talking..they cover it up..all is clear..retail is up..consumer is back...but so is the cost of basic necessities..saw a report on it on supermarket prices for the first time last saturday..threw me for a loop..(who let that cat out the bag?) what I want to see is more everyday, never- been -arrested- a- day- in- my- life citizenry behaving badly and not obeying the traffic rules in every way possible..don't know how EE will react to that...maybe that's when they'll take over 401k's..ultimate fuck you pay me. or maybe that'll be long in play before then
Dig your comments, UM. No dilemma here, tho, as I am 100% certain "they" will initiate. "They" can't help themselves, even to the creation of a "false flag" event. "They" always initiate. Its that whole Alpha male thing.
Alpha bitches too.
Nice h/t of Jana von Alpha, and other notables there MsCreant
cossack55-I'm curious. Who/what 'prohibits' you from initiating action? How does one get out of bed in the morning. More importantly, how do you initiate communication w/ZH?
Just wondering. Please reply in kind ;-)

If only more of this 'articulation of a fraud' made it onto MSM screenings. The leading news story on my local network banged on about how Lady gaga had enjoyed 1bio hits (or somesuch ridiculous number) via YouTube. The media's attitude to people is to treat 'em like mushrooms : keep 'em in the dark and feed 'em shit.
Yes, surely. But since you know this, you are on the road to liberty, if not already there.
Liberty is a pearl of great price. To get her, one must give up much. We Americans have had it easy for a long time, more or less. The price is high , with much death, and destruction. Once the troubles start, they cannot be stopped until victory is achieved. That victory will be expensive. It can be done, but will it be done? To view a possible similar scenerio, to wit, the Chechnya conflict .

I promise you, if this thing starts, they will stop at nothing to stamp it out. I hope everyone understand this. It is not a joking matter and is very, very serious. The real question is then, shall we wear our chains and put up with it, or shall we make some much needed changes and water the tree of liberty?
To pursue liberty or not: One has no choice when one believes and is willing to act upon this: Greater love hath no man than he who gives his life for a friend.
...even if a friend you don't know.
Some might call it *patriotism,* but even that's a highjacked term, and highly diluted. The thing of it is the sublime yet instant decision to not want the other guy to take the grenade. That guy walking around in your stead becomes you, and you him.
Well to me, it is our turn. We lost it, now it is up to us to take it back. Why dump this on our children? If nothing is done, I hate to see their world that is showing up now running towards us. The world coming for them is not like on the show "Jersey Shore", where American children are one big bunch of spoiled rotten crybabies. American young people have no idea what is coming for them, none. But thankfully, someone ,somewhere will stand up and take the reigns. It might as well be now. Its a dirty job, but somebody has to do it. The political system is broken. The courts are broken and now the money is broken. The French or the Greek protest methods would work pretty good I think. But in the end, probably for us, (mainly because we are who we are), the swords must be taken out and sharpened and used for what they were designed for. Of course the police will stand in the way. Men and women with spouses and children and homes just like us. Our ight must not be with them. One could only hope. I would hope that they could be talked out of doing what they will be told to do. But, at this late hour what are our choices? What indeed? Americans from generation to generation have thought to themselves, well there is nothing we can do and silently they have also thought to themselves that the next generation will take care of the problem. Well, we are at the end of the rope now. No more generations to pawn this problem off on. No more. If it does start, it will not be like any of us think though unfortunately , I am afraid. America as we have known it will balkanize into seperate sectors mainly dominated by racial differences, just like they do now in prisons. We supposedly are civilized people but in the end, trust in another will be bestowed on others via the concept of race. Sad but true. To be understood, one must understand that this is the plan that was started in 1965 with the Jacob Javitts immigration bill of 1965.

where they opened the floodgates to non white immigration. All the while we are told that this is a good thing and diversity is good but in reality diversity kills nations and nationalism . So it has worked beyond their wildest dreams. In our cities, Mexican gangs fuss with each other over turf wars but they wait. They wait for anarchy when they will make their move. This too was planned. So the cities will burn and there will be much confusion about what to do. This too was planned . For you see, diversity creates weakness because differing peoples have differing wants and needs and different motives for wanting changes to be made. This too was planned. So there will be no major congruent push for liberty. America will dissolve and the United Nations troops will move in based upon Hegelian dialectical ideologies of problem , reaction, sollution to
give us peace because the people will want peace in the land and so they will receive it at the end of rifle butt and the boot of a black booted thug dressed in blue. A sad commentary if there ever was one. But we are our own worst enemies. For you see, to see the enemy all you have to do is look in the mirror and know him as he is. But saying all of that , I say this. There always is hope. Hope is a good four letter word.
There is a young Mexican man I met this evening in Columbus, Ohio. This was in a very bad neighborhood, gunfire is ordinary. When I asked him if he worked in construction he showed me the pistol he carries in his waistline; he is a crack cocaine trafficker. He expressed a real desire to change his life, his entire family has been wasted in Mexico due to the drug trade; his return would surely mean death.
He went to the police with some very sensitive information about a week ago, he knows everything that happens in his neighborhood. The investigator told him to go fuck himself, they had no use for any of his information.
Make of this anecdote what you will, I think it speaks volumes to the situation we face in this country.
Diversity is our strength! I don't know about you guys but I'm making aliya to Europe.
Arrivaderci bitches!
"We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion. Avarice, ambition, revenge, or gallantry, would break the strongest cords of our Constitution as a whale goes through a net. Our Constitution was made only for a religious and moral people. It is wholly inadequate for the government of any other." John Adams, October 11. 1798.
There is not enough money available to pay for all of the police necessary to manage a population operating without morals. Or, to rephrase: in his early years, Bill Cosby told the story of the baby who found out that there really weren't snakes on the floor surrounding his crib. There is no way to keep baby in the crib once he figures that out.
Hopefully, ZH viewers will forward this link to as many friends as possible, in order to inform the American people of:
1. how massive this foreclosure fraud has been, and continues to be, and
2. the extent to which our elected officials are STILL covering up this fraud.
I have been clubbing them over the head with facts for years, all to no avail other than becoming a "do not invite" on the party lists. I fear they are terrified of the concept of LIBERTY. I would ex-pat myself to Montevideo tomorrow except I have paid too many dues. They can move.
...teasing, OK? Is "clubbing them over the head" equal to "initiating action"? just wondering/teasing.
all good here.

Well Jim Willie moved to Costa Rica and Bob Chapman is down there somewhere I think. To my way of thinking, there is nowhere to run and nowhere to hide.
"nowhere to run and nowhere to hide."
...and priced out. Check out the real estate prices in Uruguay
http://homes.point2.com/Uruguay-Real-Estate.aspx
Presently covering up? Try initiated in the first place. The USA needed additional funds (taxes & credit) in which to finance our many overseas commitments. That is, in plain English, to pay for our multiple military occupations in order to control critical resources aka oil. Hence the housing bubble plan was hatched, approved & launched @ the highest levels of fed.gov & the Fed.
Mark my words, if we ever get the final truth revealed, the justification will come down to national security. No joke. Obama might have had some fantasies about initiating reforms, but when he was informed of what really went down, the reasons why, and why he wasn't going to do anything about it, well, he just clocked out.
The banks = the government and the government = the banks. If the banks go down, the government goes down with them. If you don't think the banks will survive, then well ... you get the picture.
B9K9, you're a good dog, but really.
I'm not dimishing your comment, but it is not even close to the use of payment for SS ponzi and the "War on Poverty."
And perhaps USN keeping open SoH so Japan can have lights on (despite the huge nuclear fleet), and other "control" or perhaps enablement of supply/security of same for others of our trading partners who would wish not to get their hands too dirty.
But that's OK, Michelle goes into the garden that produces the biggest veggies, uses gloves, hands not dirty. Our foreign policy going down the path as well.
Compare/contrast "entitlement programs" vs. DoD and DoE (wasteful/non "energy") programs.
I concur with your "mark my words". Of course national security will be the "blame". But that shields the real factor.

When asked why the government/banking criminal syndicate robbed The People, Ben simply replied, "Because that's where the money is."
It doesn't really matter whether warfare, welfare or both drove the state's criminal behavior. All that really counts is they wanted the money ... and they got it. QED
you say warfare, he says welfare
he says banksters, she says deadbeats
warfare, welfare, banksters, deadbeats
let's call the whole thing FRAUD!
Well ya don't sing it the way Ella used to. Milestones
Tipper sings it well enough for me.
The fraud they are speaking of is by the applicants not the Bank. What if we prosecute everyone who lied on a loan application? Getting ugly now.
what if we prosecuted everyone (corporations included) who don't pay taxes? rabbit holes? see your point, but look at the whole body of work. in the end we can agree this does not end well for anybody. lose, lose..no, lose, bigger loser
the banks intentionally loaned money to individuals they knew could not pay it back!! the banks wrote these mortgage contracts, and the banks had all the tools at their disposal to refuse any applicant whose information was unverifiable ie, those who lied. they did just the opposite. they accepted all loan documents, and in some cases - changed some to meet minimum requirements. the fraud is with the banks - pure and simple! the fraud they are speaking of is with the BANKSTERS!!!
