“TO BIT OR NOT TO BIT”
WilliamBanzaiShakespeare
To Bit, or not to Bit: that is the question:
Whether ’tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fiat distortions,
Or to take arms against a sea of endless bubbles,
And by opposing end them? To die: to sweep;
No more; and by a sweep to say we end
The heart-ache and the thousand Wall Street schtupps
That insolvent flesh is heir to, ’tis a con-flagellation
Devoutly to be dish’d. To die, to sweep;
To sweep: perchance to scream: ay, there’s the hubub;
For aft that sweep of bankster dregs what new reams may come?
When we have shuffled off the immoral coinage,
Must give us pause: there’s the hazard of moral neglect
That makes calamity of sound money life;
For who would bear the whips and scorns of fiat debasement ,
The oppressor’s wrong, the borrowing idiot's contumely,
The pangs of despised austerity, the law of gravity's delay,
The insolence of central banking office and the spurns
That impatient murmur of money changing snakes,
When he himself might his quietus make
With a Benjamin Bernankin? who would QE fardels bear,
To grunt and sweat under a weary life of indebtured servitude,
But that the dread of something after redemption prior to maturity,
The undiscovered monetary wasteland from whose bourn
Are no asset returns, puzzles the will
And makes us rather bear those monetary ills we have
Than fly to others that we know not much of?
Thus risk avoidance does make cowards of us all;
And thus the creative hue of fiscal revolution
Is sicklied o’er with the pale cast of doubt,
And genius enterprises of great pith and moment
With this regard alternative currencies turn awry,
And lose the name of action.–Soft you now!
And now the Bitcoin hysteria…
While Banksta pimps 'r in thy orfices
Be all our financial sins and cowardices priced in.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the feature artwork at the top looks like the ChairSatan frozen at the bottom of the 9th bolgia of Hell, as portrayed in Dante's Inferno.
It seems that, in addition to being talented, WB7 is also well-read on the classics (no longer taught in the gubbermint schrools).
That's all the junior colleges teach. Every fucking semester I have to write papers on Shakespeare. This semester I am studying 1000 page book on Greek and Roman mythology. Every mother fucking hero and their whore wives. And the fucking gods. The pedophiles homosexuals and lesbians. Fuck last week I had to go on a field trip with the class to the Getty Villa and get asked questiond on what flower and tree represented which god and if the missing item from the sculpture was this weapon or that weapon what god would it be. I'm so fucking sick of studying the classics I could puke. I even took in Stephan Greenblatt's book the "Swerve" and talked about Leucretius in front of the class. God I wish they would teach BitCoin in colleges.
Study well young warrior, the hubris of our captors compells them to hide the truth using the classics so that they may laugh at the ignorance of the commoner. Hitler named many secrets according to nordic mythology just to inflate his own ego.
Et tu, Brute?
it's got a definite dante vibe
is there another classic where the epicenter of hell has the devil imobilized in a prison of ice?
Gustave Dore, King of the Inferno

I love it William. WilliamBanzaiShakespeare!LMAFAOROTF
I didn't clear my browser last night and anyone who knows how metatags work knows that youtube will pull your search history and direct you to other things that are similar to what you have ben searching for. In this case, I was running through my website and found this after checking a Demonocracy link.

It is Ann Barnhardt. I know some of you know who she is. I will have to warn you that this "interview" is 46 minutes long but in the first 20 minutes she unloads on Obama like a nuclear warhead exploding. After the introduction, the interviewer finally gets a word in edegwise at the 14 minute mark.LOL I usually do not listen to long interviews or post them here on ZH but there are too many good comments in this one. I can't say that I agree with everything she says but that is because she says so much and has a little too much religion running through her brain.
Mrs. M and I have a "safe phrase" for when I get going on these sorts of dissertations. Mrs. M will say that this discussion we are having is turning into "Another Thrilling 12 Hour Lecture.". Then I know I have to shut my yap. Well, I am sending her this link.:-)
Lol, I check in on Anne once a month. She sticks to her principles and backs them up with actions. But once a month is all I can take of her volatility. She loves being a Catholic and she loves writing about men who have no balls. She calls em like she sees em.
Strange woman that one is but I still have to respect her. I would only like to tell Ann that those little golf ball sized bones in her ankles can actually be pinned to her ears for a short period of time. I find Ann to be intellectually sexy except for her religion crap. I like strong women and she is a strong woman. Go breed her you young ZH males. Supposedly she is a virgin. She likes Denniger whom I do not particulary like. She thinks that no one else in the world knows what is going on. Wrong.
William, Ben would look a lot better if someone was putting a whip to his ass on the boat.
Technically, as the head slave master, Benanqualung would be flogging the galley slaves who toil for his benefit.
If only these banksters would wake up and do the right thing before it is too late for them. The next generation is smarter than they are, thus mandating the bankster's future is not long in the next world. No banksters, no corrupted criminal puppets. Easy peazy! Digging them out of the bunkers to hang up high on the yardarm will be child's play. Kinda like Easter Egg hunting.:

Love it!
Ben Turd and his band of 'debt slaves'.....
There are shekels and there are Jekylls...Shekel and Jekyll
"But...but...but...my money-god...surly it will rescue me now!"
STROOOOOKE!!!!!
The King and the Duke in Huckleberry Finn would be proud!
William,
You continue to educate, entertain, enlighten, and empower.....day in, day out...unrelenting, and I love it. Hamlet's speech! Appears you kept the iambic pentameter throughout. Thanks.
WB7 Please do a layout on these new detention PODS at the exit at our airports...honestly Nazi Germany wasn't this bad. What's next armed jackboots at the grocery store?
Detention pods? You have to be kidding!
I wish this were only a joke ............... the noose is tightening William.
This from the Daily Mail, just so you're forewarned:
TSA rolls out 'detention pods' that trap passengers insideSeems these are at the Syracuse Airport...TSA calls them "portals"
Local[CNYCentral.com] article from last month:
Syracuse airport renovation introduces new 'exit portals'
Pic of "exit portals"
Unfortunately not. It seems to be an idea floated right now. Families will be separated exiting airports and each memeber will be detained until he/she presses a keypad leaving a thumbprint and is allowed to exit. The benign interpretation is that this is another useless contraption manufactured by some company that is looking for huge profits from gov. mandated spending of freshly minted fiat. Then there are also other interpretations...
I am not sure what to make of it. The idea seems to be so insanely impractical for any reason I can concieve. I just know I will do my best to stay away from those things. The U.S. is way overrated as travel destination. The contact I need to have can be made via internet - t/c - v/c and such and that´s the way I am to keep it for the foreseeable future.
Great work by the way last week with #AskJPM. :)
ROFL - absolutely hilarious. The great bard would be proud of you.

What a piece of work is fiat,
How ignoble in reason,
How infinite in manufacture!
In form and moving
how express and dishonest.
In action, how like a Devil!
In apprehension, how like a God!
The destroyer of the world!
"Now I am become death, the destroyer of worlds."
Bhagavad Gita
"Now I am become death, the destroyer of worlds."
Physicist J. Robert Oppenheimer on the occasion of the successful Trinity Test (that would be the first atom bomb for those not too steeped in US history)
"Now I am become death, the destroyer of worlds."
Benjamin Shalom Bernanke on the occasion of discovering the ravages of QE (stated differently, pulling his head out of his ass). And that occasion happened.............. I am sure that I give him too much credit for his ability to introspect.
His fro's look like a tree ring... ;)
I have a kickass tree ring picture that I am going to do something with on 100 years of FRB
I'm looking forward to it William, your art and talent has put many a smile on my face.
Here is one...

most excellent adaptation of To Be...... A++++!

"Yeah."
Amen to this
Message for you, sir.
Phillip K. Dick truly is ahead of his times.
That book contains wubs, a robot named Willis who discusses religion (Watchoo talkin' 'bout, Willis?), and, of course, a line that could totally be in Banzai's artwork -
"Improve living standards for the dead"
EDIT:
Oh, and now another one.

In his own words
I am Ubik...
Hey wow. +1000 for the UBIK reference.
I picked up a worn UBIK paperback off of a used-books table at a yard sale in 1982. My first P.K.D. book.
It Blew my young 13-year-old mind.
That, and the wild VALIS trilogy (a more recent read). =)
I have never forgotten UBIK.
"I'm quitting my profession," Joe said. "I'm going to give up this work area and I'm going to cancel on my phone. I won't be here; I've saved up sixty-five quarters. Prewar. It took me two years."
"Coins?" Smith gaped at him. "Metal money?"
"It's in an asbestos sack under the radiator in my housing room" ... sixty-five quarters, he thought; that's plenty. That's equal to - he had to calculate it on his note pad. "Ten million dollars in trading stamps," he told Smith. "As per the exchange rate of today, as posted in the morning newspaper... which is official."
I'm saving this for bedtime reading.
Have you seen any of my recent Bladerunner art?
Not yet. Colonel Flick?
Whoops, look further down the thread.
