the basic unit of measure cannot be a tangential derivative
controlled and manipulated by a few
and fulfill its function as a basic unit,
but that is the short cut to leveraging the power
over the people, the intellectual battleground i say.
The truth is out: money is just an IOU, and the banks are rolling in it
The Bank of England's dose of honesty throws the theoretical basis for austerity out the window

actually its a UOME. credit is money and money is credit. bank deposits are considered personal loans made to the bank. that dollar in your pocket represents half of the revenue being collected in order to facilitate enough money velocity to keep it moving. if a dollar is really worth half what it seems, and people want to hoard that money, what does that say about your economic policy?
even the banksters are realising the scarcity of
"money" to repay that which is fraudulently induced.
the emperor has no empire.
.
it is a sovereignty scam perpetrated by the
high priests of spreading ignorance,
nothing new and as old as dirt or claims
on the same. the beauty of it is that it
provides the leverage for the few to own the many
by way of shame, confusion and mass incompetence
but that, too, is a double edged sword.
every game has its rules and the rules are
entirely arbitrary and relevant only to the game
at hand. they need not have any basis in anything
other than the participants can internalize them.
then the game can commence. that is money, an arbitrary
rule. nothing more. unfortunately, the rule of the game
is humanity must agonize the stupidity of the rule
and then die in ignorance at the direction of the high
priests.
so it goes.
.
also, because of the interest payment associated,
the system, activity or mechanism of lending process must
continue and increase to provide the liquidity necessary
for systemic stability and further economic activity, but ,
it can't and does not within constructed parameters of credit
and limits on moral hazard.
.
the money system was fraudulently designed that way
to replace human slavery, as slavery became abhorrent to
the enlightened age of reason mind the "owners" needed a
systemic fix to provide for the lost slave labor. this
"money" system that everyone is so confused about worked
perfectly as that replacement but up to a point.
"today"(broadly speaking), there
is so much incompetence and failure of the massaging of
the system (including outright fraud) that the essential nature
of the abomination is glaring even to the most distracted and
even they cannot fail to either see it or be profoundly impacted
by its criminal intent and nature.
the crime is nothing more than civilisation and its tendency
to push the limits of exploiting labor via symbolic miseducation
beyond the point of utility, perhaps?
in few words, pursuit of deadly greed, ambition and power;
watch for the judgement of that as has been advised.
.
there, the economic system in a nut shell.
leading to war for us......
Older men declare war. But it is the youth that must fight and die.

Quotations about War
Give me the money that has been spent in war and I will clothe every man, woman, and child in an attire of which kings and queens will be proud. I will build a schoolhouse in every valley over the whole earth. I will crown every hillside with a place of worship consecrated to peace. ~Charles Sumner
War does not determine who is right - only who is left. ~Bertrand Russell
It'll be a great day when education gets all the money it wants and the Air Force has to hold a bake sale to buy bombers. ~Author unknown, quoted in You Said a Mouthful edited by Ronald D. Fuchs
I dream of giving birth to a child who will ask, "Mother, what was war?" ~Eve Merriam
The release of atom power has changed everything except our way of thinking... the solution to this problem lies in the heart of mankind. If only I had known, I should have become a watchmaker. ~Albert Einstein
The direct use of force is such a poor solution to any problem, it is generally employed only by small children and large nations. ~David Friedman
"There are no atheists in foxholes" isn't an argument against atheism, it's an argument against foxholes. ~James Morrow
Sometimes I think it should be a rule of war that you have to see somebody up close and get to know him before you can shoot him. ~M*A*S*H, Colonel Potter
All the arms we need are for hugging. ~Author Unknown
A soldier will fight long and hard for a bit of colored ribbon. ~Napoleon
If we do not end war - war will end us. Everybody says that, millions of people believe it, and nobody does anything. ~H.G. Wells, Things to Come (the "film story"), Part III, adapted from his 1933 novel The Shape of Things to Come, spoken by the character John Cabal (Thanks Bill!)
A great war leaves the country with three armies - an army of cripples, an army of mourners, and an army of thieves. ~German Proverb
The world has achieved brilliance without wisdom, power without conscience. Ours is a world of nuclear giants and ethical infants. We know more about war that we know about peace, more about killing that we know about living. ~Omar Bradley
Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed. This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children. This is not a way of life at all in any true sense. Under the clouds of war, it is humanity hanging on a cross of iron. ~Dwight D. Eisenhower, speech, American Society of Newspaper Editors, 16 April 1953
The most persistent sound which reverberates through men's history is the beating of war drums. ~Arthur Koestler, Janus: A Summing Up
What a cruel thing is war: to separate and destroy families and friends, and mar the purest joys and happiness God has granted us in this world; to fill our hearts with hatred instead of love for our neighbors, and to devastate the fair face of this beautiful world. ~Robert E. Lee, letter to his wife, 1864
Everyone's a pacifist between wars. It's like being a vegetarian between meals. ~Colman McCarthy
Nations have recently been led to borrow billions for war; no nation has ever borrowed largely for education. Probably, no nation is rich enough to pay for both war and civilization. We must make our choice; we cannot have both. ~Abraham Flexner
Draft beer, not people. ~Attributed to Bob Dylan
The problem in defense is how far you can go without destroying from within what you are trying to defend from without. ~Dwight D. Eisenhower
War will exist until that distant day when the conscientious objector enjoys the same reputation and prestige that the warrior does today. ~John F. Kennedy
Here's some strange hedge for ya:
Gaza Strip also wants to join Russia:

it strikes me that golf is very much on the mind of one WildBill7.
G-O-L-F: Gentlemen Only Ladies Forbidden (that's the original scottish acronym...GOLF is one of the very few things for which A&E masonry is both responsible and laudable, yet tragically never credited...everything positive is positively verboten -- all part of the plan; or so it would seem)
golf is likewise steady on my mind; and though it seems janus will have to pass on the bartending out on martha's vineyard (the daily ferry ride is a far more cumbersome fuss than i'd at first reckoned), options more favorable have come my way. the most recent job prospect involves janus slinging drinks to duffers just east of hyannis. it's a public course, and therefore prone to attract scads and scads of irishmen; and so i'm certain to have some kennedy stories by summer's end. i'll take no guff from a kennedy, that's for sure.
as to golf, i'm certain that many of those now reading are avid participants in and devoted lovers of the game...but most assume they're innocently trotting from tee to tee, thinking they're just idly enjoying a bright, sunny afternoon. not so! it is my sad duty to inform you all that you've been unwittingly engaged in a plot so sinister and intricate that none but a crafty and bushy-browed scotsman could ever have concocted it.
GOLF was designed to draw-out those otherwise indistinguishable and well-camouflaged lesbians. it's true. and i hate to be the one to tell you...but golf is but another cunning ruse; a grand scheme contrived by those who would see all of you acting as caddies, greens-keepers and valets to effect a greater purpose beyond your understanding. as for the lesbians, it is best that you all remain blissfully ignorant and cheerfully naive.
in other words, janus intends to this summer live out his caddy-shack fantasy:

now, returning again to the purpose and proper use of lesbians:

and now that WB's tinkering about with the strangest of loves; i'll say it all reminds me of something called operation paperclip, that 'conspiracy' all the dark-web sites are always prattling on and on about. every bit of it's a lie. but part of the lie is a facility called the van braun center near huntsville, al (also associated with the redstone arsenal). they may or may not keep lotsa stuff there. janus even...he may or may not have seen a full subscription list from the daily worker. there may also be full membership lists from SDS, CWP...and, well, other groups also. it's possible also that those lists are widely disseminated.
just kidding...everything is precisely as it seems. your president is a United States Citizen (no doubt about it); and nothing is at all amiss. you may now return to your regularly scheduled programming.
additionally, you may all now start programming your algos to yellen's menstrual cycle. the economic forecast for 2014-2015 looks moody, with intermittent spells of bitchiness (thank heavens i didn't say 'bossy')
happy vernal equinox, you buncha heathens and savage pagans!

i wish that i knew what i know now/

Mr. Yellen has a menstrual cycle?
- Ned
actually she looks post menopausal. and mr yellen probably has prostate problems, just because all men of that age do.
What's Russian for:
Hole in one
Fore
Improve your lie
sand bagging
19th hole

The face of evil incarnate.
The cityscape with the full moon is lovely, William; a calm assertive counterpoint to the gauche deconstructivist assault of 'Tittytainment'.
All of your angst ridden outlandish and unrepentant barbarities wouldn't be half as meaningful or precious without the countervailing longing and ennui; the romance.
Slumming with you is the high life, man.

George Grosz, whose art is one of my great influences, fell into a trap.
His politically oriented pre-WWII works became a limiting personal signature.
After he moved to the US he did other kinds of works which I find pleasing in a different way. But those were not appreciated and success eluded him in later life.
I don't want to fall into the same trap. That is why I am trying not to neglect my other interests and I am mixing and sharing everything together.
This works quite well, because people who liked my photography now like my political satire and vice versa. And viewers who follow both can see how the two approaches have fed into one another both technically and stylistically.
But even more importantly, I don't want to concede that everything in the world is ugly simply because our lives are being hijacked by globalist corruption and thievery. The world is still a beautiful place inhabited by good people (corny meter needle of the dial).
groz was a contemporary of piet mondrian? and while groz was political, mondrian was abstract (and therefore more political; ie i.e.dological - sorry) there is that notion of cinematic purity (the place where eisenstein begins) in either one of these two artists. for now i must have another glass of wine
Mondrian is another one I have always loved. Actually, it is easy to figure out who I liked. Basically the modern artists displayed in MOMA at the very beginning, before it became an art cabalist boondoggle. I still remember going there as a kid. I loved it and I hated the stuffiness of the Met.
The place is a zoo now.
spaulding gray called it the new york art mafia. i suppose its not much different that the financial district
VIVA the original MOMA!i
I'll second that...was a member in the '60's....Guernica was still there....partial to Miro and Klee....and like Calder's work.
No movie ecpert me, but this flick EASILY on my personal Ten Best Ever list.
(& imho opinon GCScott's performance is every bit the equal of Sellers')

Who says money can't buy happiness?
And she is a health care consultant!!!
I hear she gives good headache.
Would you be willing to leave a link or two? That would really be appreciated!
If you are referring to "health care consultant", it's in the first sentence of your Business Insider link.
