Ship has been full since 2009
I'm one of the lucky ones and am booked on the Lusitania.
The clanking in the adjacent room is just munition stashes, I mean Chinaware.
I find it ironic that the funding of the Titanic was handled by JP Morgan. He was booked to be on the maiden voyage, but cancelled at the last minute. I guess he was too busy heading to Jeckyl Island to fund his next Titanic, the USSA and the Federal Reserve.
The world has alwasy been ruled by TINA, as it's the ultimate political mandate.
"But we have to do something!"
Was the titanic was sunk deliberately in an elaborate insurance fraud...
He was in on the scam and knew it was going down.... see the posts referring to the Olympic further down.
My grandpa and grandma tried to book passage on the Titanic when they came to America from Holland but steerage was full. They took an old steamer instead.
Forget the Lusitania, real party's on the USS Liberty!
ALL HAIL CHUMBA
Stay the hell out of steerage.
Why? It's the best I've seen. Hardly any rats.
To big to sail.
Too Big to Sink becomes Too Big to Float ... just as
Too Big to Fail will become Too Big to Rescue
Good to see that you included the Fukushima ELE. Nicely done.

There's always room for one more!

Notice!
Travellers intending to embark on the Atlantic voyage are reminded that a state of war exists between Germany and her allies and Great Britain and her allies; that the zone of war includes the waters adjacent to the British Isles; that, in accordance with formal notice given by the Imperial German Government, vessels flying the flag of Great Britain, or any of her allies, are liable to destruction in those waters and that travellers sailing in the war zone on ships of Great Britain or her allies do so at their own risk.

Maybe this time New York sinks and the ship rises

Want to meet in the car on the cargo deck later handsome ?
Keep on buying MOAR $tocks sheeple!

I have the cleanest shirt on board. Suckers.
now if only some of those extra ship shipping ships could have come to the rescue back then
Yes but today or in 5 years....at the current rate of bubble the R.M.S. Bankster is 17800 feet above sea level.
Unfucking sinkable!
Unfucking sinkable!
Near...
Far...
Wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on
Of course there is an alternative..... we could choose nt to participate.
It's the only moral play Doc.
Whoa; that was shock. It was like hearing Marcel Marceau speak.
(Love your work, LK!)
Many of us have started to consciously decouple, however, the hooks are set deep...
I guess every lil bit helps.
DaddyO
Are you kidding me? Im short this market, so bring on the Iceberg, baybee
Shorting TSLA, GPRO, BABA, TWTR (added today)
Short the S&P
Burn it down.
You dare take on Kevin Henry? You must have some deeeeeeeeeeeeep pockets.
Which one of these is not like the others?
I KNOW! And I'm not telling.
Yet.
I was like you once, but shorting through most of 2010, I realized you will never make money betting against the Mob in the Mob's Casino. When they want it down, it goes down. When they want it up, it goes up. When they want it flat, it stays flat. I hope you use protection.
"permission granted to come aboard"
hmmm, hmmm, you said "come", beavis
Understand the life you have is contingent on the continuation of the fantasy.
Production of goods of value useing labor and materials has already crashed.
There is no other choice but to continue to issue magical debt to pay for the lifestyles of the unproductive masses.
When the fantasy comes to an end, so will the lives of those masses.
Smoke em if you got em.
Ship of Fools
But...why does it say "OLYMPIA" under "TITANIC" and "TITANIC" under "OLYMPIA"?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n_d_GEy8lr0
The evidence is overwhelming.
The Titanic did not sink that night. From the 401 number on the propeller to the 14 porthole windows near the bow.
It was indeed the Olympic.
This is a classic example of how the rich will go to any and all lengths to stay that way. To get to where these guys are, you must be a special kind of sociopath–or you won't make it there.Everything has to be a conspiracy...I had some fucking wacko freak like you fuckers in my very first physics class in college. Day 1 this nutjob stands up and yells "the moon is made of cheese". You fuckers are everywhere.
Not everything, no. Simply most things directly connected to the banking cabal.
Or are you one of those crazy coincidence theorists?
John Jacob Astor, one of the only financial elites of the age vocally opposed to the Jekyll Island schemers and the "reforms" post-Panic of 1907, also just happened to be on board. Bear in mind that Astor was "new money"; the fortune he amassed in mere decades in the fur trade matched that of the Rothschild's metals empire that took centuries to build. They hated each other. Who owned the White Star Line? JP Morgan, was it? Who gave Morgan his startup capital, again?
What are the odds, eh?
Another coincidence. The rich prostitute their daughters to get even richer. "On October 1, 1895, Paul Warburg was married in New York City to Nina J. Loeb, daughter of Solomon Loeb, founder of the New York investment firm of Kuhn, Loeb & Co." He's considered one of the founders of the Federal Reserve. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Warburg
Best part of that movie was Kate Winslett's tits
American male, of course. Some of us set our sights a little lower.
It really is the same old story. The guys in first class will be rescued in the 2/3 empty life boats.
Not a perfect analogy… Back in 1912 when the Titanic hit an iceberg, in short order everyone was apprised of the dire situation. There were not enough lifeboats to save everyone, but there were enough to save all the women and children and many of the men. Back in those heroic days Captain and crew went down with the ship of course. Today imagine the U.S. is the Titanic, (not to difficult) and it has struck the iceberg. The Captain and crew are telling everyone things are going to be fine. They tell all the passengers to just have another drink while they fix things up so the voyage can continue. Behind the scenes they quietly gather thier rich friends and pile into the lifeboats. There are still many boats left, but instead of saving the woman and children, they loot the cabins of all on board and fill the remaining boats with their ill-gotten gains. As the string of boats rows away from the doomed ship some of the passengers notice and shout "where are you all going?" "Just off to get more Champagne of course" they reply "…carry on!"
Bon Voyage,
Pretty spot on.
He's talkin' about the US economy, right?
With Schettino at the helm.
I've been using this signature for years in my emails....
As Captain E. J. Smith was informed that the unsinkable Titanic was indeed foundering, the first order of business was to have the band play on...as many of the financiers boarded the insufficient life boats.Post of the Day right here.
I think there is a greater chance that the Titanic will be re-floated and will sail again -- before we hear the unedited MH17 pilot voice recordings...
I'll be flying.
Yes, the Hindenberg still has a few good seats left too.
Everyone should listen to this.
The same applies equally to all the other wastelands the U.S. has created since 9/11!
Just one big FRAUD to collect on.....
There's a theory that it wasn't the Titanic but her sister ship Olympic that went down. The Olympic had been damaged in a collision with a British cruiser the year before and was unlikely to pass seaworthiness inspections. The collision would also have made her uninsurable. Lots of rukors of activity before the 'Titanic' launch invlvong the switching of nameplates and things like dinnerware between the two ships with workers sworn to secrecy. There were also oddly worn carpets for a brand new ship. The White Star Line collected in full when the 'Titanic' sunk. And the 'Olympic' served on into WWII.
So how much of the current economic system is pure fraud with the big guys just waiting to collect on the insurance they've taken out?
but you have to wonder - if EVERYONE is betting on collapse, who's going to have anything to pay off those Credit default swaps? Is gov supposed to bail out the casinos banks endlessly?

Catchy!
Hey! Those boarding passes don't show where my Stateroom is located! It all depends are where you're quartered on the boat, right???
/sarc
Drawn and quartered. You betcha!
"Captain, will we be sailing near any icebergs?"
"Of course not. That's a ridiculous question. I'm an expert at sailing passenger ships, and everyone knows that icebergs are afraid of ships."

Coincidence biggest opposers of FRB where killed on the ship? Benjamin Guggenheim, Isador Strauss, John Jacob.
Titanic didn't sink. It was it's sister ship, the Olympic. The Olympic had suffered pretty sever damage to where White Star Lines would have to spend a fortune to remake the ship so it was sea worthy.
This meant out of the 3 sister ships they would have to completely re-do the Olympic which was going to cost a fortune. Do a little paint job and make the ship look good and then sink it for insurance money. They took their broken ship and sunk it. Do some reading on it, the finances and the names involved should be a clue as to why they would commit insurance fraud.
Another Jesuit hit job.
Knocking off John Jacob Astor at the same time, one of the few financial elites of the day with a conscience, wasn't a bad bonus for Morgan and his buddies, either.
stupid comp double posted my bad.
I think I'm sea sick
"Take her to sea, Mr. Yellen... let's stretch her legs."
Seeing that it's Friday, I'm waiting to see which blogger will tie the sinking of the Titanic to either Hitler/Nazis or the Jews. LOL.
That'd be some stretch, considering that in 1912 Hitler was still floating around Europe trying to sell paintings, while the Nazi Party hadn't even been conceived yet.
ZH CENSORSHIP. GOOGLE TITANIC WAS REALLY IT'S SISTER SHIP THE OLYMPIC TITANIC WAS never sunk. Olympic sustained massive structural hull damage to where they would have to rebuild the ship which would almost broke the company . Look at the names and who owned white star lines. This was insurance fraud period.
Even eye witneses and crew raise awareness that the schematics was not the titanic but it's sister ship The Olumpic. White Star knew they had a m@ssive Loss so they came up with sinking the olympic but switching decor and art and painting the name titanic.
Easy scheme. Sink your battered ship, repaint and remodel the interior all the while sitting on a severely damaged hull.
That way white star got the insurance fraud money and two other great sister ships -- The Titanic and The Brittania. Google this, its very interesting.
