Wayne Gretzky once said, when asked the secret of his success at ice hockey, “I skate to where the puck will be.”
It is for the same reason I keep bringing up the issue of money missing from the US federal government and the possibility that collateral fraud and counterfeiting of US government and agency securities were instrumental in facilitating the transfers.
If we simply accept as a given books and records that are not reliable when there is significant evidence that vast sums have been stolen or transferred illegally, we will find ourselves being controlled and bought with the very money stolen from us.
We will endure the ultimate leveraged buyout in the history of our civilization.
This one financial issue will be an important determining factor as to whether our children and grandchildren will live as free men and women or not.
But it is too late, say some, as the money is gone. Actually, it is not too late to recapture funds. If liabilities were illegally or fraudulently originated, we may not be liable for them. In addition, if we are still interacting with liable parties with assets, we can create rights of set-aside for those responsible.
I am inspired by the story last week of the Italian seizure of billions in US bonds from two Japanese crossing the border into Switzerland . Max Keiser Comments
Do you think it is impossible for billions, if not trillions, of counterfeit or unrecorded sovereign and agency bonds to be issued and floating around the world?
Think again…

this is an excellent discussion, everyone. from hegel, to quigley, huxley, darwin, and especially rhodes. the latter had made it clear that his goal was to bring the US back under the banner of the british empire and, he said, though it may take 100 years, his eventual goal would be realized when a rhodes scholar was POTUS.
a philosopher friend of mine had argued recently that Hagel had no prescriptive intent behind his dialectic; rather, he was merely DEscribing how things occur. Moreover, this philosopher stated that Hagel had no intention of helping those in power master this (as noted above) time immemorial tactic.
I also have questioned w/in permaculture many times (much to the chagrin of those who are leading this movement) if a) the movement were to grow and decentralized communities become strong, if this doesn’t turn us into “terrorists” by those who want monopoly, control, and inefficient resource management so that the masses are kept poor and not valuing our resources. This question is not considered a relevant or even realistic question by many of the teachers to whom I’ve addressed it. Maybe it’s the geopolitical philosopher in me, but I see it as one of THE biggest questions.
The other question I’ve asked, is whether or not our movement is allowed to continue because our agenda actually fits with some of the elite agenda. An answer to this came to me recently w/Bert and Richard’s take on the political/monarchal gardens and preparation for neo-feudalism.
I’m curious to hear some discussion of these, if possible.
Hello,
These amounts are nearly 1/2 of the captured $134.5Bn (which has been pronounced counterfeit by U.S. treasury) .. (which of course means practically nothing)
from Wed. 6/17 NYT:
JPMorgan Chase and nine other big banks said Wednesday that they had repaid the federal assistance money that they received in the fall during the height of the financial crisis.
JPMorgan said it had returned $25 billion, with interest, to the government — money that the bank’s chief executive, Jamie Dimon, has said it never needed in the first place.
Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs said in separate announcements that they had each repaid their $10 billion in federal aid, joining a parade of financial institutions making their exit from the government rescue program.
By late Wednesday afternoon, all 10 banks allowed to exit the government’s Troubled Asset Relief Program had said they had repaid the TARP money. Among them, American Express returned $3.39 billion, Bank of New York Mellon $3 billion, Capital One Financial $3.57 billion, State Street $2 billion and Northern Trust $1.58 billion.
Earlier in the day, BB&T and U.S. Bancorp said they had repaid $3.1 billion and $6.6 billion, respectively, in government bailout money.
Hi Folks,
Don’t get to blog here very often due to a full plate but wanted to reinforce
what Catherine and Bert have been emphasizing: the Hegelian Principle.
I’m very surprised that more people are not familiar with this tactic that is
truly as old as mankind but popularized by Hegel.
Another more current psychological procedure is that of ‘projection’ which again
is either ignored, denied, or rejected by most but should be considered at all
times in all research and communication.
If any of you are not familiar with the writings of Dr Nicholas Hagger, I can
highly recommend him, his research and philosophy.
@Brian: “You mentioned “Marshall Law”. I believe you meant “Martial Law”.”
What a funny mistake I made. Guess I’ve been spending too many hours in front of the flicker-rate computer screen.
Bert,
You mentioned “Marshall Law”. I believe you meant “Martial Law”.
