Geithner Says Not To Worry About Surging Oil Prices: "Central Banks Have A Lot Of Experience In Managing These Things"
You really can't make this shit up: "The economy is in a much stronger position to handle” rising oil prices, Tim Geithner said today during a Bloomberg Breakfast in Washington. “Central banks have a lot of experience in managing these things." We are, all of us, now doomed.
Bloomberg's account of one lunatic's daily ramblings in a collapsing world:
U.S. Treasury Secretary Timothy F. Geithner said the economic recovery has put the world on a better footing to withstand the increase in oil prices caused by turmoil in the Middle East.
“The economy is in a much stronger position to handle” rising oil prices, Geithner said today during a Bloomberg Breakfast in Washington. “Central banks have a lot of experience in managing these things.”
Political turmoil in Libya, holder of Africa’s largest oil reserves, will add “stagflationary winds” to the global economy, according to Mohamed El-Erian, chief executive officer at Pacific Investment Management Co. Protests in Libya pose more “systemic” risk to the global economy than the upheaval in Egypt and Tunisia, El-Erian said in a Bloomberg Television interview yesterday.
Geithner also said the U.S. financial system is in better shape than before the recession and is able to provide the funding needed for the expansion.
“The core of the American financial system is in a much stronger position than it was before the crisis,” he said. “We’re way ahead of any other major economy.”
And if the confirmation that we have a lunatic in charge was not enough, here is the punchline:
“The economy is gradually getting stronger,” Geithner said today, adding “I wouldn’t get carried away with it.”
Don't worry TurboTax, you will get carried away... by a mob of unruly protestors who finally realize that Libya was not an isolated incident.

Fortunately my bunker is fully stocked: Silver, Gold, Ammo, Food...
TIMMAY U ARE A FUCKING IDIOT. HOW DO YOU SOLVE A PROBLEM OF SUPPLY WITH A PRINTING PRESS.
WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU GOING TO DO? PRINT OIL?
kleptocracy, amerikan style.
Why hasn't this dipshit been thrown out of a 40th story window yet?
Jump! You Fuckers!
Benocide said a week ago that "the fears of inflation are largely overstated".
Timmay says today that "inflation can be handled".
Well, which is it? Do we got none? Or do we got some?
The idiots stealing US taxpayer money should at least get their story straight before being interrogated in separate rooms.
As the silver bears would say: "I just shit myself."
When they say, "we've got everything under control, don't panic" then you know the end is here. Game over folks. Things are spiraling out of control faster than I can watch with my eyes. Greek, Indian riots are spreading fast now...
This is coming from a guy that can't even do his taxes right. Watched all the fraud going on under his nose at the NYF, and said fundamentals were good. I have complete confidence in somebody like that.
Exactly! Timmay is another puppet.
We can no longer say: "when the shit hits the fan". The shit IS hitting the fan!
Brace yourself for impact. From Jesse today:
"Hell is truly the inability to feel love, empathy, and compassion, knowing the price of everything, but the value of nothing.
Strange days, I am sad to say. Change is in the wind, and is starting to blow like a hurricane, as cycles come round again."

“The core of the American financial system is in a much stronger position than it was before the crisis,” he said. “We’re way ahead of any other major economy.”
Such an incredible f-ing LIE!
Agreed! Like when asked if his QE2 is causing global foodstuffs inflation Ben said: "I'm not sure I agree with your premise" same thing he said about housing price decline question on CNBS in 2006.
Unrest => Oil shock => recession => less demand
High inflation => Raise rates => recession = less demand
Wash, Rinse, repeat.
Looks like round2 of the peak oil downward cycle. First is was peak demand, now it's perhaps peak exports, next maybe geological peak. There can be no printing out of this one.
Wildcards: Europe's 90ish day crude reserve, US's SPR, etc. They can and probably will be used to control the price during the shocks. Rationing/Driving controls are also quite possible. All you cats around in the early seventies could probably tell a little about how it may go down.
even plate numbers fill one day, the odd number plates fill on the others (at least that's how it was done on long island)
The Geithner has some shoe-catchin' in his future...
"FIAT"= "Fix It Again Timmy"
warms my heart to know Timmay has taken care of his friends and they don't have to worry....of course, me, one of the peasants,
i'm fucked.
not that this matters to anyone in the power elite. the only good peasant is a dead peasant, right?
Tastes like chicken...

WEST TEXAS NOW AT $100!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hold on boys!
The ride has just begun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
yeah, total LOL at the economists thinking their paper bullshit can "manage" the oil supply. WTF, they're going to print up some production for us?
I can't completely castigate them, because before the production peak, lowered rates = more activity = more supply. In a rough sense, the money supply over the previous century did throttle economic activity and oil production in a rough way. This led idiot banker/economists to believe that they were really controlling the levers of everything.
What they forgot is that economies grew independent of CBs before said existed in various countries, on the back of energy supply growth. Banking is really parasitism that inhibited growth a little or a lot depending upon what they did, but the aggregate supply of energy to do the doing was the driver of the macro trend.
i believe for short periods 'they' can manage perception, and for shorter, prop certain market sectors...
but when somebody actually wants delivery of a few barrels of oil, oz -s of silver, or bushels of wheat/rice...
wheeee wheee wheee, all the way home.

LOL, you sir have the comment of the year..........so far! Fell out of my chair.
BUT YOU CAN'T EAT OIL!@!@#!!!!
*disclaimer: this is not an actual assertion that oil is unrelated to food, I am well aware of the petroleum inputs of fertilizer and transportation among others.

This explains a lot about how Geithner makes decisions.
Don't forget to fill up the gas tanks in your cars while you're at it, before these higher crude prices roll through to the pump. It may be the best return on investment anyone can make this week. $4/gal gasoline now on the horizon.
Did just that on the way to the office this morning as I was thinking the same thing. ~$95 to fill the tank is probably the lowest amount I'll have to pay for the forseeable future. I did notice that the gas station had raised the price by .08 over night.
Yes, over night. As in one day.
Now I just need to remember to get another 50lb. bag of rice and a box of primers on the way home...

Don't forget water, medicine, and toilet paper. Yes toilet paper; think of what it would be like to go just one week without it, then think of the space one year's supply of toilet paper for one person takes up.
As for you bunker, while I appreciate you seem to be among the few actually preparing for the shit storm to come, unless what you call a bunker is actually a hardened structure(and good opsec will prevent you from disclosing such details) then you would do well to invest in portable survival resources.
Sure you could have one ton of lead(ammo) to protect one hundred pounds of gold and silver, but consider how long just one ton of water will last one person and that "bunker" starts to feel like a tomb.
Prepared with all the items you describe. But, yes, you are correct that the bunker is short term solution only. Wait out the initial nightmare and then re-locate once the sheep have long since turned cannibal & the herd has become thinned to non-existant. Where to re-locate to is what no-one can prepare for.

$188 into pickup this morning. Nice.
Up until now, I always thought that Bernanke was the absolute pinnacle of stupidity. Apparently, Geithner is a strong contender for that coveted distinction. We are all absolutely, totally, completely doomed.
The Bernank is a tool/shill of the banking cartel. He was selected because he would do their bidding - print and prolong their failure for as long as possible. His articles and books - likely written in academic earnest - earned him the job. My sense is he now - on some level - understands the way things really work, but it is too late for him to recant or go back. He is painted into a corner and will print and ZIRP4EVER.
Turbo Timmy might have been selected because he was stupid, and would therefore be an easy shill to sway back and forth. What better person to have run the Treasury/IRS then a tax cheat?
What this speech tells me - is that they will continue to floor the accelerator. High oil prices help the ME regimes get their petrodollars. Who knows, it may even serve the MIC to launch some other proxy move. But, we will print, print, print all the way over the cliff...
TraderJoe says:
I agree. Did you know that Ben's license plate reads QE4EVER ... ? (ZIRP4EVER was too long for a license plate).
The successful upward career path of the useful idiot...
Now wait, this Jeethner clown is right on all counts.
The economy can handle rising oil prices better, because so many people - over 20% - are unemployed, and 1 in 7 of Americans are on SNAP. Those will be priced out of the market for gas and heating oil and the need for imports will fall substantially. Check.
What's more, "... the U.S. financial system is in better shape than before the recession and is able to provide the funding needed for the expansion." Of course! Funding never was a problem, and expansion is just around the corner, as every other economy will beg for ever more dollars to buy the ever more expensive oil. Europe and China will fall by the roadside, as the American bankster class will soar heavenward in a cloud of pixie dust. Check.
Not long before Obama will don a djellaba, Gadhaffi style, and address the American people about change they can believe in, if they had any choice.
If my memory is correct, this motherfucker has a college degree in the Far East Studies. No wonder.
the Bernank will simply print the oil

If Timah is not worried then we should all sit back and relax and buy those second homes as the Central Banks are on the case. I feel a lot better now.

Reminds me of the movie "Maverick" where they were traveling through the desert in a carriage driven by an old guy. They thought the old man knew a shortcut, but he had actually had a heart attack and died. The horses were headed straight for a canyon.

oh no...canadian troops.
if they deploy here, it will be to stop a flood of escapees/refugees.
I don't imagine that the cops here will be as "restrained" as those in other nations in the face of protests like we've seen. In every case so far, our cops have really cracked skulls. Our riot forces are trained to stop riots, not just stand there looking like guys that stop riots.
Just because the greeks deployed a ton of guys in riot gear does not make them real riot cops. Watch the G20 footage from Toronto to see how we do it. Stasi stuff is where the US is still #1.
If Americans are chucking rocks or molotovs, I would expect police snipers. We have a giant paramilitary who has specialty in no-knock raids, dynamic entries, and a real military that has been doing the same in a very hostile country for nearly 10 years now. You have to ask yourself what the US public brings to a 'revolution' that the US Army hasn't dealt with in Iraq.
a lot more guns?
In all honesty , a tiny fraction of American gun owners are prepared to stand up and be counted if there was a descent into civil war. The majority of gun owners would pussy out or fight each other over looting the next door neighbours flat screen. TPTB have done a fantastic job of dumbing down and fattening up Joe 6 Pack. Iraq and Afghanistan will prove to be far harder to tame than middle America (Afghanistan will NEVER be tamed without genocide , pure and simple)
George Orwell has an idea how it ends up for the pampered fags of the developed socialist World (America is a socialist country , has been for a very long time)
LOL oh no the Canadian army - I bet my neighborhood is better armed
I'd take that bet, but it's hard to collect from a corpse. Canucks are and have always been kick-ass troops in the field.
No, I'm not a Canuckistanian.
I had occasion to visit a War History museum in Estonia last summer. The way the Russians took that country was to simply inform the Estonians that because they were obviously too small to defend themselves from outside threats, the Russians would help them out by moving in troops.
I suspect Canada will come under US control in the same way. It's a dangerous world full of expansionist lunitics you know....

Sorry to say Tyler's wrong on this. Timmah's bosses made this shit up and told him to say it in public. I'm surprised Timmah didn't need a teleprompter to deliver the message.
+1 - always good to remember that this is scripted, read by actors, events are staged - best not to believe the storyline tho' as it's fiction, and subject to the next episode, currently being image-ined.
Geither is mostly correct. The financial sector is stronger as they have institutionalized moral hazard and will carry no risk (Hello taxpayers!). And lets face it CBs have a HUGE amount of experience with causing rising commodity prices. He doesn't say if the CBs will lower it or not, just have experience with it :)
As to the economy being stronger, can even argue that depending on when you start the measurement from. So he is telling the truth, from a certain point of view.
Haha you're right - doublespeak at its finest.
seems like the only speech available to poli-tics today
financial sector is stronger and everything else is falling apart. Seems like a fair trade.
And managing the market?

The likes of Geithner, Bernanke and Obama are paid very well to look the other way while the banksters and the rich corporations rob the taxpayers of each and every dollar they spend or save. They do so by inflating the prices of things they consume and selling them toxic assets leaving the rest of the population helpless, starving and broke for their foreseeable future.
The politicians around the world are nothing more than auction items which can be sold to the highest bidder. They will do whatever they can for the lobbyist paying them the maximum amount of money or votes, be it the unions, the banksters, the richest corporations or individuals. They are in the power seat to extract maximum advantage for themselves in the small time frame they occupy the seat of power.
The rest of the population is least of their concerns. The only activity they do is pacify the majority of the population using false statistics and promises of a better future so that they do not lynch them and their masters while they are robbing the taxpayers.

Yep the banks will do just peachy...Main Street is screwed. Tell those Greeks to stop throwing Molotov cocktails!!! they are making the gas price rise!
Now I am concerned.
Don't worry about issues unless you receive official reassurance.
We're gonna need a sh!tload of dimes.
Dimes are getting pretty expensive. $2.41 last.

"Central Banks Have A Lot Of Experience In Managing These Things"
Like I've said before Dr.B and Co. are at the mercy of.
These kinda statements only reaffirm the fact
Total loss of control!
There will be QE3 shortly, however with undesirable/ uncontrollable consequences. Oil will be well above $120 and this is just the beginning.
Stock Bunkers! Good luck! - IB
QE3 or WW3? Central banks are good at starting those too!
Naturally "[t]he economy is a much stronger position to handle" higher oil prices -- there are twenty percent fewer people going to work each day across the land; ergo, per The Secretary, reduced demand will serve as a governor for higher prices.
O.M.G. I spit up coffee when I read the headline.
I thought you were just mocking Geithner. But no000oo.
I almost did too! Only in American government could this man still have a job.
Hope/Change
Geitner/Bernanke
WE NEED A REAL LEADER SARAH PALIN!
Unbelievable, cannot believe that Jeethner said that.
Quick, Timmy, get to the chopper!
TurboTax Timmy is America's 'special' government official.
Truly.
This guy is a shining beacon on the hill of incompetence that serves as a near daily reminder to all Americans that being a total moron can never derail aspirations of those who have ties to the new, far more powerful organized crime syndicate, aka 'The 5 Families' of TBTF & PDs.
Mobsters in their heyday never had an ounce of power that the new criminals, backed by Bernanke & ObaMao, on Wall Street have.
maybe the Bernanke intends to roll out cold fusion at the next press conference.
i have about as much faith in the Bernanke preventing this train wreck as the surgeon general curing all disease.
Most of the CNBC watchers will swallow Timmy's lines though...
An interesting, albeit apparently somewhat flaccid, demographic these days for CNBC. To illustrate, this particular product was advertised on the channel right before the cigar store wooden Indians on "Squawk Box" began their morning teleprompter reads.

If this does not send the market into freefall, nothing will and here comes QE4.
The never ending supply of CIA coke does wonders, doesn't it?
Timmah: "I'm King of the World"
Bennie: "shut up and blow me"
thanks for the laugh needed it
If only we could get the TeaParty-Beck ralliers AND those Union ralliers to march on the Fed. In that case I would strongly support protesting "Greek style".
Yep... Sadly co-opted and poised to blame one another. But who knows? There's alot of common ground in "we're all screwed"
+1
Fuck those union pussies. Oh boo hoo have to pay extra for healthcare and pensions. At least they have pensions and health. Most pay thru the ass.
I say we have our counter protests there.

It's funny 'cuz it's true, 'cous'!
"I say we have our counter protests there."
Take out the second 'o' in that sentence, and I think it better describes your stupid idea. I'm sure Timmy, Ben and the gang will be with you all the way, laughing; at you.
I feel really confident now that I know my future lies in the hands of Tim Geithner. There is no doubt that we are totally screwed as the world ponzi unravels right before our very eyes. The revolution crisis has only just begun and if you haven't stocked up on a six month supply of food yet, now is the time. They thought they had the whole plan figured out, or did they? There is absolutely nothing Tim Geithner can do but pray that the dollar doesn't crash in the next few months because he and his sidekick Ben have shot all their bullets and the enemy hasn't even showed its face yet. Soon we will all realize how world ponzi economics 101 is nothing but a dream that we have all been living in and when the ball comes unraveled we will see there is nothing inside but massive crumpled up balls of credit card slips and iou's. For those who ridiculed Gerald Celente last year for calling a global revolution? Time to eat crow BITCH! This is real and is coming soon to a theater near you.
Are you sure this wasn't an SNL skit?
I got a FEVER! And the only perscription is more Quantitative Easing!!
I'll take the "Gold Plated Diapers", thank you!

The Dude: Look, nothing is fucked, here, man.
The Big Lebowski: Nothing is fucked?

The Big Lebowski: The god damn plane has crashed into the mountain!
Fucking Banksters. Nothing changes.
HAHA! I think all doubt is now removed. Yes ladies and gentlemen we are in the twilight zone.
Almost $100,
in my world (i know - who gives a rip) gasoline demand is inelastic. i gotta drive because it's a long way between stops in texas. so whether gasoline is $2:50 or $5:00 i'll pay it. same with the a/c. it gets hot and dusty so gotta run the a/c. again, inelastic demand.
Mythbusters proved that you get better mileage at freeway speeds with a/c on instead of the windows open.
Not that it makes paying $5 a gallon easier to live with, but still.
i watched that episode and distinctly remember their going further on the same fuel load with windows down.
That notwithstanding, at the speeds I drive, I would suffer hearing loss from the wind roar so AC it is for me lol
Don't forget drafting behind an 18-wheeler. CONFIRMED.
Or you could put golf ball dimples on your VW.
Rumor from Twitter: Libyan pilots who bailed were ordered to bomb oil fields (!)
