Radio Zero: Lies, Damn Lies and Hungarian Economic Statistics

Marla Singer's picture




 

It's not like anyone believed the data anyhow, right?  I mean, seriously.  Everyone was doing it.  Greece... Hungary... several other unindicted co-conspiring jurisdictions.  Punishment by the market will be swift and merciless now that the open secret that governments outright lie about their economic data on a routine basis is out.  (That is, unless a short selling ban is instituted to protect the lying liars who lied about lying).  We ask you.  What is there to have confidence in anymore if even the Hungarian government is full of it?  Well, how about Radio Zero?

I think that the first matrix is a rotation matrix, turning a matrix a quarter turn.  The last matrix is the literal result, rather than the mathmatical one.

7th RULE: Fights will go on as long as they have to.

The only question is, how long does the "fight" have to go on.  Seriously, I am all for a good grudge match, but you're starting to sound really bitter over this.  Where is that machismo that has empowered you to get things off your chest and then be done with them so many other times?

I thought that your post about why you sign things with "I am chumbawamba" was amazing.  Very few people take the time and effort to be that honest about themselves, especially in a group of people.

"President Barack Obama, under grueling political pressure, slammed BP for spending $50 million on television advertising to manage their image and planning to pay out $10 billion in dividends to shareholders this quarter.

``They've got moral and legal obligations to the Gulf,'' the president said after arriving in New Orleans Friday, where he met with Gov. Charlie Crist, other governors and various lawmakers whose states are affected by the disaster."

normal in my corner of the eu, our socialist ex-government gave towns power to multiply their taxes by 2-5. none used it at first but now everyone does because right got power. they will now deflate real world economy thousand needles style to chase after imaginary numbers that got out of hands long ago and get paid unholy for it while normal folks just cant get a decent job because no one plain needs em because the service economy is a myth, manufacturing is outsourced and green jobs do not work because you would have to put a price on the environment quality and make everyone pitch in for it which is a pipe dream. the only good jobs are the govt jobs and the banker jobs and the politicians are handing our countries to bankers in the name of debt reduction. the debts were created artificially by the same bankers and need to be repudiated Iceland style but that requires balls. let them deflate, they will only bring about the inevitable sovereign collapse and hyperinflation before a global voluntary currency (gold bitches!) emerges. they are a burden on the system with their certified holier than thouness and arrogant hubris. the useless upper classes are reaching critical masses, there will be carcasses

hope this doesn't pass as this e-mail claims... secondly, i wonder how it affects condos? if true, it will help finance Gore's divorce!


Don't want to be bothered with "Political stuff?"   You'd better read this one. It will come as a huge shock to you if you aren't informed as to what Obama is up to, and it has already passed one hurdle.  It will take very little now to put it into actual law!!  
YOU'D BETTER WAKE UP AMERICA !!!!



So you think you live in a free country. Boy have you got a surprise coming.

A License Required for your HOUSE?

If you own your home you really need to check this out. At the end of this email is the Google link to verify.  If the country thinks the housing market is depressed now, wait until everyone sees this. No one will be buying homes in the future.

We encourage you to read the provisions of the Cap and Trade Bill that has passed the House of Representatives and are being considered by the Senate. We are ready to join the next march on Washington! This Congress and their "experts" are truly out to destroy the middle class of the U.S.A.

A License will be required for your house...no longer just for cars and mobile homes....Thinking about selling your house?  Take a look at H.R. 2454  (Cap and Trade bill).  This is unbelievable!  Home owners take note and tell your friends and relatives who are home owners!

Beginning one year after enactment of the Cap and Trade Act, you won't be able to sell your home unless you retrofit it to comply with the energy and water efficiency standards of this  "Cap & Trade" bill, passed by the House of Representatives. If it is also passed by the Senate, 
it will be the largest tax increase any of us has ever experienced.   The Congressional Budget Office (supposedly non-partisan) estimates that in just a few years the average cost to every family of four will be $6,800 per year. No one is excluded.  However, once the lower classes feel the pinch in their wallets, you can be sure that these voters will get a tax refund (even if they pay no taxes at all) to offset this new cost. Thus, you Mr. And Mrs. Middle Class have to pay even more since additional tax dollars will be needed to bail out everyone else.

But wait. This awful bill (that no one in Congress has actually read) has many more surprises in it. Probably the worst one is this: A year from now you won't be able to sell your house without some bureaucrat's OK. Yes, you read that right.

The caveat (there always is a caveat) is that if you have enough money to make required major upgrades to your home, then you can sell it. But, if not, then forget it. Even pre-fabricated homes ("mobile homes") are included. In effect, this bill prevents you from selling your home without the permission of the EPA administrator.
  To get this permission, you will have to have the energy efficiency of your home measured. Then the government will tell you what your new energy efficiency requirement is and you will be required to make modifications to your home under the retrofit provisions of this Act, to comply with the new energy and water efficiency requirements.   Then you will have to get your home measured again and get a license (called a "label" in the Act) that must be posted on your property to show what your efficiency rating is; sort of like the Energy Star efficiency rating label on your refrigerator or air conditioner. If you don't get a high enough rating, you can't sell.    And, the EPA administrator is authorized to raise the standards every year, even above the automatic energy efficiency increases built into the Act. The EPA administrator, appointed by the President, will run the Cap & Trade program  (AKA the "American Clean Energy and Security Act of 2009") and is authorized to make any future changes to the regulations and standards he/she alone determines to be in the government's best interest. Requirements are set low initially so the bill will pass Congress. Then the Administrator can set new standards every year.
The Act itself contains annual required increases in energy efficiency for private and commercial residences and buildings. However, the EPA administrator can set higher standards at any time. Sect. 202 - Building Retrofit Program mandates a national retrofit program to increase the energy efficiency of all existing homes across America. 
  Beginning one year after enactment of the Act, you won't be able to sell your home unless you retrofit it to comply with its energy and water efficiency standards. You had better sell soon, because the standards will be raised each year and will be really hard (expen$ive) to meet in a few years. Oh, goody!   The Act allows the government to give you a grant of several thousand dollars to comply with the retrofit program requirements IF you meet certain energy efficiency levels. But, wait, the State can set additional requirements on who qualifies to receive the grants. You should expect requirements such as "can't have an income of more than $50K per year", "home selling price can't be more than $125K", or anything else to target the upper middle class (that includes YOU?) and prevent you from qualifying for the grants.    Most of us won't get a dime and will have to pay the entire cost of the retrofit out of our own pockets. More transfer of wealth, more "change you can believe in." Sect. 204 - Building Energy Performance Labeling Program establishes a labeling program that for each individual residence will identify the achieved energy efficiency performance for "at least 90 percent of the residential market within 5 years after the date of the enactment of this Act."

This means that within 5 years 90% of all residential homes in the U.S. must be measured and labeled. The EPA administrator will get $50M each year to enforce the labeling program. The Secretary of the Department of Energy will get an additional $20M each year to help the EPA. Some of this money will, of course, be spent on coming up with tougher standards each year...

Oh, the label will be like a license for your car. You will be required to post the label in a conspicuous location in your home and will not be allowed to sell your home without having this label. And, just like your car license, you will probably be required to get a new label every so often - maybe every year.
  But, the government estimates the cost of measuring the energy efficiency of your home should only cost about $200 each time. Remember what they said about the auto smog inspections when they first started: that in California? It would only cost $15. That was when the program started. Now the cost is about $50 for the inspection and certificate.    Expect the same from the home labeling program. Sect. 304 - Greater Energy Efficiency in Building Codes establishes new energy efficiency guidelines for the National Building Code and mandates at 304(d) that one year after enactment of this Act, all state and local jurisdictions must adopt the National Building Code energy efficiency provisions or must obtain a certification from the federal government that their state and/or local codes have been brought into full compliance with the National Building Code energy efficiency standards.
