LAST WEEK IN MAYHEM
Economic:
1) Zerohedge obtains declassified documents proving gold price management by US authorities

Despite the vapid proclamations of such outlets such as NY Mag (which I use to line my rabbit's cage, thanks guys!) , the facts are the facts. And the facts indicate that US elites including the intelligence agencies have been involved in 'price management' schemes for gold since at least the late 1960s. In the past week, Zerohedge has obtained two separate declassified documents proving beyond all doubts that US elites have engaged in schemes to manipulate the price of gold upon global markets.

To those who do not understand the purpose of such machinations, the first question is to ask 'who benefits'? No doubt via the current schemes, the beneficiary have been the central banks and their power brokers. In particular for the situation in the United States, these schemes have enabled the US to deficit spend under fiat conditions and EXPORT price inflation to foreign creditor nations , since the official demonetization of gold in 1971. This has been possible due to the status of the US dollar as world reserve currency , and the implicit pricing of strategic commodities such as Oil in US Dollars. Thus, the unusual alliance between the United States and the human-rights paradises / petrostates such as Saudi Arabia. This has all been detailed in my article Gold and Systemic Crisis, which I recommend reading, as it directly connects with these recently declassified documents regarding gold manipulation. The Oil-Gold-Dollar connection is critical to understand how the scam functions.
The purpose then, in terms of gold price suppression in favor of the USDollar/Tbond complex, is to maintain a system in which the concentration of wealth flows upwards towards US-UK global elites which helps perpetuate their entrenched political control. Functionally, this governing structure best resembles 'oligopoly' -- that is an oligarchy with a monopoly. Indeed this is precisely what we have seen, as wealth inequalities between the top 1% of society and the rest of humanity reach levels never before seen in the United States.
As for the NY Mag and other ad hominem detractors, foolish proclamations such as what was published will only increase Zerohedge traffic. Once people get hungry for the truth , they never go back. It was always about the content, not the personalities. Thanks for the new readers.

"If we want to have a chance to remain the masters of gold an international agreement on the rules of the game as outlined above seems to be a matter of urgency. We would fool ourselves in thinking that we have time enough to wait and see how the S.D.R.'s will develop. In fact, the challenge really seems to be to achieve by international agreement within a very short period of time what otherwise could only have been the outcome of a gradual development of many years."

G20 SPECIAL COVERAGE!!!

Rather than cover the idiots and criminals eating vampire calamari safely within the confines of the security perimeter of the G20 , we present for your consideration the rapid militarization of the police to protect an increasingly dangerous criminal class of oligarchs against the ire of the public. Yes , tear gas, advanced active-denial technology, and deadly force will be used against demonstrators and innocent college students , as the United States sinks further and further into a dystopian hell run by the unholy fusion of banks and defense contractors. Shall we call it the United States of JP Morgan, Raytheon, Lockheed-Martin, Northrop Grumman, Citibank, and Baxter? Or how about USS Failwhale?

FLU PANDEMIC SPECIAL COVERAGE!!!
1) Second wave of swine flu pandemic begins to hit US
The Second wave of the failflu has begun! I'm scurred! Are you going to take the shot , worker drone>?
Well, if you are, Zerohedge has recently entered the vaccine business! (as part of our Zerohedge International Biologicals subsidiary). We have prepared *special injectable Viral RNA* for all our readers! For a limited time, our custom vaccine will be available at Zerohedge store for only $29.99 -- but you must sign a liability waiver, as our vaccine is completely untested. We have, however, been granted legal immunity by the FDA -- just like GlaxoSmithKline, Novartis, and Medimmune! Side effects may include nerve damage, flu infection, sterility, and death. Act now while supplies last!
*May contain lethal genes
Legal immunity set for swine flu vaccine makers

"After months of warnings and frantic preparations, the second wave of the swine flu pandemic is starting to be felt around the country. Doctors, health clinics, hospitals, and schools are reporting rapidly increasing numbers of patients experiencing flu symptoms."
2) Where did swine flu come from?

"If your understanding is the current H1N1 late-2009 season flu pandemic began in Mexico as it spread from herds of pigs to humans there you are probably among the millions who have been misled as to the origins of this flu outbreak.
Only one group of virologists that I could find has asked the right questions and has properly investigated the origins of the H1N1 swine flu virus of 2009. Yet even these virologists are off the mark when it comes to understanding the current flu pandemic."
"According to Drs. Gibbs and Downie, the simplest scenario is that a contaminated multivalent vaccine was not fully sterilized."

Its all part of the master plan - stealing wealth, debt slavery.
Zeitgeist Part Three (Men Behind the Curtain)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=__YFnUfYXZk
During times of stability, the populace seems to tolerate some monetary inflation implicitly as a "fee" for management, or for benevolent economic stabilization--so long as it is very modest, say 2-3% per annum.
In crisis though, the rigour with which the monetary authorities arrogate power to themselves to create facilities and to intervene in markets derives from the unlimited power to create money (casino markers?). When the accumulated intrigues of many decades come home to roost in the abscess known as market panic, prudence-discretion-discipline are cast aside. The productive class must bear the burden (through outright and subtle confiscations of their physical property) of the crisis' management necessitated because of prolonged MISmanagement or even practiced larceny.
No longer is inflation a cost borne for the price of regulation, stability, refereeing, maintenance of free market principles, carrying capacity to service interest, but rather a perpetual invoice of increasing frequency produced to compel payment for policy mistakes and the systemic fraud of wealth transference. This is when the FED is shown for what it really is: a state sponsored monopoly for money creation and wealth transference from the governed to the central bank underwriters/political syndicate.
It is then that one must conclude that central banks do not exist to protect equally capital and labour, nor to assure the soundness and discipline of the system;...
But to plunder the general wealth and weal. Plunder modestly and surreptitiously while operating under the guise of clean free markets in times of "moderation". Operating openly and contemptuously of the productive class in times of crisis and with sweeping expropriation through their infinite channels of making claim upon their fellow man.
Taxes, withholdings, tax steering policy, IRAs, pensions, junk-corp-muni-state-sovereign-IMF bonds, shammy equities, promissory notes of every kind, entitlements, social programs, currency. Bag of tricks all.
All are riddled with the option of state confiscation. Whether it be whole or part, these all are subject to the caprice of powerful, unelected, and unchecked men.
Time perhaps to play LOT and turn back on Sodom if one is to live through destruction. Their power is to take, to withdraw far more from creation than is bestowed. They destroy.

Well done as always PM, one of the highlights of the week. Oh, and thanks for the gold article as well.
Excellent selection PM.
FYI, Ron Paul 'End the Fed' book signing tomorrow @ Borders on 100 Broadway, downtown (right off Wall St.)
Seeing is believing - but I'm not sure which is more scary, this article or the fact that Alex Jones has been saying this for months now. (PS I did not get this from his site but will check to see if he has posted it)

edit: seems that we have scooped infowars with this one
At some point in time, if not already, it may become necessary to carry around the "informed citizen" survival pack: bandanna and goggles, before undertaking any effort in excercising our first amendment rights. Is that any different than a Guy Fawkes mask or the white marking those Roman senators were discussing so long ago?
Suffice it to say that this is a dangerous path for both parties.
Proper communication skills are a must however. I had to witness the unlawful breaking and entering by police into another person's property this weekend. A noise violation led to 12 mfing officers showing up on the premises. But for all their intimidation and desire to conduct an illegal search a call to an attorney and a request of badge numbers halted the violation of rights. People are a lot more afraid once they are accountable for their actions.
The primary reason personal identification items are removed from riot/use of force contact team member uniforms.
Mayhem - I hope Zero compensates you well for your effort
as far as the G20 meeting antics I was slumming around the Teee Veee dial and happened on NBC's Brian Williams (one of many assistant White House press secretaries), who reported on the excellent work security forces had done in clearing the area of protesters.
Excellent as always, keep up the good work!
Flu vaccinations = "Anyone heard of Nuremberg?"
I love this site.

Great quote.
I have to wonder which will happen first. The attempt to use these tactics on E14/International or the perfect slaves rejecting the failed status quo now that it has failed them.

No organized demonstrations and the police over react. Federal funding pays for riot gear and police tactical units. Your taxpayer dollar at work. Perhaps (some day my prince will come) there will be some organized resistance.
The most effective is for Americans to pay off their loans and escrow their income taxes.
I wonder if any of those police are wondering like, WTF are we doing here? This doesn't seem right to me. These are just a bunch of kids. No such luck I guess. Governments are good at stealing and killing and that's about it as far as I can tell.
What a sad state of affairs. May vote with my feet. Taking suggestions on countries to move to.
No No , the MM Guarantee elapsed - you knew that - Welcome to Communist China - First use of Crowd control weaponry in USA and NOONE SAYS SHIT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Plus the extending speakers and dishes don't react too well to bullets.
Since we've had some oopsies with satellites bashing into each other really not that big of a deal.
The "silent majority" during the 1970s liked Kent State. What does today's silent majority think?
Good stuff Mayhem! I especially liked the "MILF" part...LOL!
Where's RoboTrader to provide addtional MILF details?
Here...I'll fill in for him:
I love how the Fed tells me what's "irrealistic" to assume.
An F in English? That's unpossible!
haha
is it just me or is that Federal Reserve guy perpetually cross-eyed? also, it's pretty hillarious when his voice cracks!
Holy f_ing crap, Mayhem. The piece on H1N1, combined with the (not-so-recent) advances in police/"peacekeeping" tools and the Navy protocols... Have you ever read the unabridged version of the Stand? I don't suppose you will have time now,and it is a rather long-winded piece, but it offers decidedly interesting social commentary. The scenario sketched out by you is different yet eerily reminiscent. Ultimately perhaps scarier. It is one thing to accidentally create megadeath-lethal pandemic (then use force to make sure it is indeed global in reach, and covered up until there is no one to ask for the truth), and another to manufacture one not so lethal to further leverage power and institute... what? Slavery? De facto incarceration of entire populations? Yet perhaps "scarier than I wish to comprehend" is not a valid reason not to try to ask WHY, and HOW this may benefit whomever it is benefiting?
