What Are You Going To Do As Our Money Dies?

What Are You Going To Do As Our Money Dies? thumbnail

In our recent article It’s Time To Position For The Endgame, Chris Martenson explained how the US Federal Reserve and its sister central banks around the world have been engaged in the largest and most egregious wealth transfer in all of history — one that has been drastically exacerbated by the covid-19 pandemic.

The official response, tremendous monetary stimulus by the central banks paired with massive fiscal stimulus from national legislatures, has been pitched as “saving the system”.

Yet, in reality, it has merely served to accelerate the transfer of capital from the public into the pockets of the already-rich.

Anyone with eyes can see how the central banks have abandoned all pretense of monetary fiduciary responsibility and have simply cranked their printing presses up to “maximum”:

In concert with this surge of liquidity, national legislatures have added their own emergency measures. In the US alone, the CARES Act pushed nearly $3 trillion in fiscal stimulus into the system, and will highly likely soon be followed by another $1-3 trillion depending on which party’s bill gets passed.

Despite these staggering sums, the amount of money trickling into the average US household has been meager and is drying up.

Instead, these $trillions are mostly finding their way into the coffers and share prices of corporations. We have seen the fastest and most extreme V-shaped recovery in the history of the financial markets since the March swoon. The major indices are now back to record all-time-highs, despite the major carnage covid-19 has wreaked on the global economy.

So who benefits from that? Oh yeah, the people who own those companies. The already-rich.

Remember: 84% of all stocks are owned by the top 10% of households.

So in a nutshell, the official response from our “leaders” in government to the pandemic threat has been: Rescue the markets at all costs!

Chris refers to this as the Leave No Billionaire Behind (LIBB) Program. As he describes:

Between March-April 2020, the Fed added a staggering $282 billion to the bottom-line wealth of US billionaires:

But that wasn’t enough.

So the Fed kept printing. And buying, buying, and buying more and more financial assets held – of course – mainly by the already-wealthy.

By May 2020 the total added became $434 billion, making all the US billionaires more billionaire-y:

But even that wasn’t enough for the Fed.  So it printed even more, increasing the total to $583 billion by June:

Yep, you guessed it. It didn’t stop there. By July, the grand total was up to $637 billion:

Considering that US GDP dropped by -32.9% (annual rate) and clocked in at an annual rate of $19,408 billion in the second quarter of 2020, the US Federal Reserve had granted an astonishing (truly!) 3.3% of the entire output of the entire country to US billionaires.  For doing absolutely nothing.

Yes, people have many reasons to be angry and to protest these days. But they ought to be furious with the Federal Reserve and its lackeys in Congress who have utterly and completely failed to check these egregious, unfair, and socially destructive policies that grossly reward the elite at the expense of the bottom 99%.

Let’s do a little math here. Handing 3.3% of the value of the entire economic output of 160,000,000 working people to roughly 600 individuals is the equivalent of granting each one of those 600 billionaires the entire yearly output of 9,020 people.

It’s like the Fed decided that each billionaire deserved to have 9,020 people become their slaves for the year.  How is that *not* psychopathic?  How is that fair?  What’s the plan here? Keep going until these 600 people own everything in the world?

And where’s the media on this? They happily parrot every statement the Fed makes, without asking even the slightest of critical questions. They are failing us badly, too.

Okay, so why should you care?

Because what the Federal Reserve is doing generates enormous systemic risks which could well destroy the economy and much of our future prosperity.

At heart, I am a conservative in the sense that I’d like to keep (i.e. “conserve”) what we’ve got, both ecologically and economically. I’d vastly prefer that we change our nation’s destructive path now on our own terms than being forced to on reality’s terms later on. As painful as the former may be, the latter will be much more so.

History is complete on the matter: one cannot print one’s way to prosperity.  It’s been tried over and over again and my view is that if it could be done, we’d all be speaking Latin because the Roman Empire with it brilliant engineers would have figured it out millennia ago and would never have collapsed.

If the Romans couldn’t work it out, it simply can’t be done.  Mathematically, it also doesn’t pencil out.  Money is a social agreement, a contract.  It’s not real wealth.  Taking the attempt to the extreme, what would happen if everybody had a billion dollars and nobody had to work?

So printing currency only manages to delay and exacerbate the inevitable by building up the energy for its own destruction.

And the longer the delay, the worse the reckoning when it ultimately arrives.

So to recap, the Fed et al have ensured that the covid-19 pandemic has resulted in a boom for the elites, while the rest of us are experiencing an economic Depression that could last for years:

Continued Claims chart

So, with the central banks hell-bent on supporting the rich by sending the prices of all financial assets farther into the stratosphere, is high/runaway inflation the natural next stage from here?

Will those worrying about a systemic “crash” from all the intervention and deformation be proved wrong?

We addressed these questions earlier this month for Peak Prosperity’s premium subscribers in Chris report Is High Inflation Now A Bigger Danger Than A Deflationary Crash?

Every so often, we’re encouraged by our paying subscribers to share an important report with the general public. This is one of those times.

    The Junk Currency is now in Total Collapse Mode.

    Right after the local gas stations finally slightly raised prices. Thats all it took to start the collapse.

    Canadian shitty Lonnie is going up against US. So. it is looking like US is now junk very soon to be followed by all world currencies.

    The panic has started around the world. Panic is getting more and more obvious in Australia.

    Some leader during COVID press news look like they are about to cry. I love every minutes of it. I finally get my revenge. Mother fucker. 30 year of enduring globalist bullshit.

    PM has finally ‘put Australia first and stood up for sovereignty’. THey finally realized that China is not a friend. Canada will still continue to suck China dick.

    People are starting to hijack delivery truck in the US. This mean that people don’t believe that live will ever get back to normal.

    Expect really soon the formation of gang and war lord taking control of small area like we see in Mexico.

    Protest in Australia, Germany, Netherlands against the mask. People are now realizing the the old word is not coming back and will move to lawlessness to survive. We are going back to the law of nature, the most brutal and violent is the one that will survive,

    “We are going back to the law of nature, the most brutal and violent is the one that will survive”

    Not permanently.

    First we are going to witness the death of the “diversity” ideal, after the US gave the very bad example and fell apart because of that ideal. We will have a couple of years “law of nature” until the enemy-combattants will have been separated. The West will have to go through a “1989” of its own, which is bad new for our lefties. Anglos will be mega-out, just like Soviets of former fame. After “the break” we will have either Europeans or neo-Brazilians. Europe and Anglosphere are going to reverse roles.

    A new George Floyd toxicology report released this week…

    George Floyd could not breath WHILE HE WAS STANDING!

    https://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2020/08/who-killed-george-floyd-2.php

    But video that came out later showed that Floyd had been complaining of inability to breathe when he was standing up and walking around, long before he was on the street. And it emerged that the toxicology report associated with his autopsy found that he had at least double the dose of fentanyl in his blood that is normally considered lethal, along with other drugs. And shortness of breath is notoriously a symptom of fentanyl poisoning.

    Not that it matters, apart from Derek Chauvin, who will probably be acquitted. Any pretext to go on a national rampage would have been acceptable.

    Taxpayers of America, you may soon be funding a $500 billion bailout of the 50 states, all U.S. territories, and the District of Columbia. But where is this vast sum of money going?

    House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s “HEROES Act” — more accurately titled “Pelosi Throw-Money-at-the-States Bailout Bill” — vividly illustrates why transparency is crucial. If the Senate passes the legislation, taxpaying citizens of financially responsible states will bear the burden of financially irresponsible states.

    “They Would Have Killed Us” – Rand Paul Describes Attack By “Unhinged” Mob
    Profile picture for user Tyler Durden
    by Tyler Durden
    Fri, 08/28/2020 – 14:46
    During his first live interview since being confronted and assaulted outside the White House last night, Rand Paul, the senator who back in June introduced a bill that would end the kind of “no-knock” warrants that contributed to the murder of Breonna Taylor, described the “horrific” experience of being attacked alongside his wife.

    Rand Paul just got chased by a crowd back to his hotel, after leaving the White House from Trump’s Republican Party Nomination #DC #DCProtests pic.twitter.com/h1kPcZG1jh

    — Brendan Gutenschwager (@BGOnTheScene) August 28, 2020
    Paul is no stranger to confrontation (remember the incident with his neighbor?) but he said he regretted his decision to try to walk back to his hotel. As Paul and his wife and friends walked, the crowd around them started getting bigger and bigger. They were shouting threats, but they were also shouting “say her name” in reference to Breonna Taylor.

    “You couldn’t reason with this mob, but I’m actually the author of a law to try and get rid of no knock raids. These people were unhinged. I’m not sure we would have made it.”

    At one point, the mob knocked down one of the officers guarding Paul and his wife. Asked about the types of threats, Paul said he heard members of the crowd bray about trying to kill him and his wife. If the police hadn’t been there “we would not be here today, or we would be in a hospital today.”

    “I truly believe this with every fiber of my being, had they gotten at us they would have gotten us to the ground, we might not have been killed, might just have been injured by being kicked in the head, or kicked in the stomach until we were senseless,” he explained.

    The Duration of What?

    It’s nice to see The New York Times acting like a whipped dog after hounding the nation year upon year through thickets of falsehood and deceit to put over their hustle of systemic racism. “…some worry that local Democratic leaders are failing…” Really? Do you think that videos showing flash mobs of black looters rampaging through a Target Store, busting up cars on a dealer’s lot with baseball bats, and setting fire to a furniture shop might tell a different story? And that everybody still sane in this land knows that Democratic mayors and governors have been standing back, allowing it to happen?

    The Democratic Party ought to worry that the voters are onto their game, because it looks like they’ve completely blown it only a week after anointing the most decrepit old pol in their donkey stable to run for president. Speaking of whom, Joe Biden finally crawled out from under a rock yesterday to issue a few timid peeps about the rioting, looting, and arson that went on in Kenosha, Wisconsin, for three nights running — and for three months in other cities around the country — during which he said nothing to halt the trashing of Kenosha’s downtown.

    The different story that events themselves are telling voters is that young Americans act like savages when given the green light by politicians who refuse to enforce the laws against public violence, theft, and the destruction of property, and who justify all that with a fabricated narrative about systemic racism. Since Memorial Day, the Democratic Party has used the Black Lives Matter and Antifa orgs as shock troops in a stupid campaign aimed at abolishing the police. Well, now America can see exactly what happens when the police get functionally disabled by mayors and governors who order them to not do their primary job: maintaining basic civic order. The voters have seen it in Kenosha, Chicago, New York, Denver, Minneapolis, Los Angeles, Atlanta, Seattle, and Portland, Oregon.

    Duncan., what will you do when Trump is replaced with a figurehead and spokesman for the jewmerikan hegemony with one approved and groomed by the hidden deep state crowd? Will you continue to spam endless links reminding everyone here how much you despise(d) the Orange Ape? I think we get it by now.

    I hate to break the news to you, but ‘trump’ does not rule the empire, and he has no power to change its overall course and direction in anything but the most trivial of ways. When he eventually does fade into the background, and someone else less obnoxious and uncouths ass is warming the ceremonial WH throne, but doing exactly the same things, or worse then he was, but with the all-important fawning approval of the media, ‘academia’, the CIA, and all the rest of them, what’ll you talk about then?

    Will you tell us 50 times a day how happy you are ‘trumpster’ is gone and how much glad you are now empire once again has an establishment approved spokesman to put an acceptable spin and face on the corrupt and inept amerikan over-class endless wars and various crimes against humanity?

    “They Would Have Killed Us”

    Typical hyperbole & lying from another cunt politician.

    If a mob wanted to hurt or kill you & you never even suffered so much as a fucking paper cut then you’re full if shit. Making shit up.

    Perhaps it’s another case of conservative over active amygdala disease.

    Amygdala hijack

    An amygdala hijack refers to a personal, emotional response that is immediate, overwhelming, and out of measure with the actual stimulus because it has triggered a much more significant emotional threat.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amygdala_hijack

    Now Ronald Reagan on the other hand could legitimately say someone tried kill him.

    The Social Fabric of the U.S. Is Fraying Severely, if Not Unravelling

    Why, in the world’s richest country, is every metric of mental health pathology rapidly worsening?

    “One questions posed by researchers was whether someone has “seriously considered suicide in the past 30 days”— not fleetingly considered it as a momentary fantasy nor thought about it ever in their lifetime, but seriously considered suicide at least once in the past 30 days. The results are staggering.

    For Americans between 18-24 years old, 25.5 percent — just over 1 out of every 4 young Americans — said they had. For the much larger group of Americans ages 25-44, the percentage was somewhat lower but still extremely alarming: 16 percent. A total of 18.6 percent of Hispanic Americans and 15 percent of African Americans said they had seriously considered suicide in the past month. The two groups with the largest percentage who said yes: Americans with less than a high school degree and unpaid caregivers, both of whom have 30 percent — or almost 1 out of every 3 — who answered in the affirmative. A full 10 percent of the U.S. population generally had seriously contemplated suicide in the month of June.

    In a remotely healthy society, one that provides basic emotional needs to its population, suicide and serious suicidal ideation are rare events. It is anathema to the most basic human instinct: the will to live. A society in which such a vast swath of the population is seriously considering it as an option is one which is anything but healthy, one which is plainly failing to provide its citizens the basic necessities for a fulfilling life.

    The alarming CDC data extends far beyond serious suicidal desires. It also found that “40.9% of respondents reported at least one adverse mental or behavioral health condition, including symptoms of anxiety disorder or depressive disorder (30.9%), symptoms of a trauma- and stressor-related disorder (TSRD) related to the pandemic (26.3%), and having started or increased substance use to cope with stress or emotions related to COVID-19 (13.3%).” For the youngest part of the adult population, ages 18-24, significantly more than half (62.9 percent) reported suffering from depressive or anxiety disorders.”

    In Phoenix, rising temperatures day and night kill more people each year

    But it’s not just desert cities that are threatened by hotter summer temperatures. Deadly heat is on the rise across the United States.

    “Over the past 30 years, heat has accounted for more fatalities on average than any other weather-related disaster in the U.S., according to the National Weather Service.

    And while heat deaths may be more acute in the desert city of Phoenix, the warming climate that helps drive them is not likely to leave any major American city unscathed.”

    What sucks & will suck even more is the dwindling of overnight cooling. It’s even harder on crops than it is on humans.


    Summer Nights Are Getting Hotter. Here’s Why That’s a Health and Wildfire Risk.

    Higher nighttime temperatures as the climate changes can leave homes and humans little chance to cool off. It’s affecting agriculture and wildfire activity, too.

    CNN Has Turned Itself Into America’s “Baghdad Bob”
    Profile picture for user Tyler Durden
    by Tyler Durden
    Fri, 08/28/2020 – 21:20
    Authored by Andrea Widburg via AmericanThinker.com,

    On Tuesday, with its reporter standing in front of a raging fire, CNN ran a ludicrous chyron stating, “fiery but mostly peaceful protests after police shooting.”

    Ordinarily, this wouldn’t be worthy of reporting three days later.

    However, for some reason, this chyron was a bridge too far for many people, and the internet is still flooded with memes. It’s apparent that, with this latest denial of objective reality, CNN has finally completed its transformation into Muhammad Saeed al-Sahhaf, whom many Americans remember almost fondly as Baghdad Bob, the Hussein regime propagandist who insisted that Saddam was winning even as U.S. troops entered Baghdad.

    In 2003, when our military successfully invaded Iraq and quickly captured Baghdad, Muhammad Saeed al-Sahhafk, aka Baghdad Bob, was Saddam Hussein’s Minister of Information. As troops neared and then entered Baghdad, al-Sahhaf gave daily press briefings during which he announced the most outrageous lies about the wars.

    For example, Baghdad Bob insisted that American troops were committing suicide “by the hundreds” and that none had entered Baghdad. Meanwhile, Americans were a few hundred yards away from him, and the audience could hear the sounds of their fighting. On April 8, four days before Americans captured Baghdad, al-Sahhaf was still insisting that U.S. troops “are going to surrender or be burned in their tanks. They will surrender. It is they who will surrender.”

    Baghdad Bob was last heard from some years ago living in the United Arab Emirates. However, it’s entirely possible that he’s currently working for CNN, a former news network, and now a sloppy propaganda outlet for the Anarcho-Marxists of Antifa and Black Lives Matter.

    Obviously, things are a bit different here for Bob. Last time, American troops were closing in on Baghdad as Bob spun manifest lies about events. This time, American anarchists and communists are closing in on an American city as CNN spins manifest lies about events. But aside from the details, that chyron running across the bottom of the CNN screen is vintage Baghdad Bob:

    For Americans fed up with a deeply dishonest media, this chyron seems to have been the last straw. Thankfully, rather than copying leftists and rising up with weapons and flames, Americans have instead mounted a sustained ridicule attack against CNN.

    Sandia Labs Goes Nuclear On Employee Who Sparked Internal Revolt Over Critical Race Theory

    Fri, 08/28/2020 – 21:00
    Sandia Labs – America’s premiere government-funded nuclear weapons design lab, has taken aggressive action against an employee, Casey Peterson, who produced a viral video “pushing back on the narrative of modern systemic racism and white privilege.”

    Here’s the long and short of it via Christopher Rufo – director of the Discovery Institute’s Center on Wealth & Poverty, who has directed four documentaries for PBS, Netflix and international television – and has declared ‘war’ on critical race theory.

    There is a civil war erupting at @SandiaLabs.

    Following my investigation, a dissident electrical engineer named Casey Peterson emailed all 16,000 employees denouncing critical race theory in the lab and hoping to spark a rebellion against Sandia executives.

    Here’s the story.

    — Christopher F. Rufo (@realchrisrufo) August 27, 2020
    Rufo continues:

    On Tuesday, Peterson made a YouTube video “pushing back back on the narrative of modern systemic racism and white privilege.”

    The video quickly hit 10,000 views within the labs and dozens of Sandia employees contacted Peterson to express support.

    Within hours, Sandia executives dispatched a counterintelligence team to lock Peterson out of the network and scrub his communications from internal servers—which, via the Streisand Effect, made the video even more viral and sparked widespread unrest against Sandia executives.

    By the afternoon, executives were panicking about the brewing rebellion, placed Peterson on paid administrative leave, and established a “security review board” to “evaluate whether [his] actions have comprised or posed a threat to Sandia computing and security systems.”

    Peterson—who took a stand at grave risk to his career—says he is speaking on behalf of all of Sandia employees who are “scared to speak out” because of the lab’s repressive culture. “If I get fired because of this,” Peterson says, “the fight does not end, it only intensifies.”

    This is the first explicit rebellion against critical race theory in the federal government—and the coalition is growing. “We need to completely rip [critical race theory] out of Sandia root and stem,” Peterson says. “It is cancer and we need to get it out of the labs right now.”

    Sandia executives have made it clear: they want to force critical race theory, race-segregated trainings, and white male reeducation camps on their employees—and all dissent will be severely punished. Progressive employees will be rewarded; conservative employees will be purged.

    Keep this in mind: Sandia Labs is a federally-funded research agency and designs America’s nuclear weapons. Senator @HawleyMO and @SecBrouillette have launched an inspector general investigation, but Sandia executives have only accelerated their purge against conservatives.

    Sandia executives face a decision-point: they can back down and Peterson’s rebellion will notch an internal victory; or they can fire him and Peterson will become further evidence of Sandia’s corrupt and repressive culture. In a sense, Peterson cannot lose.

    According to multiple sources, the executives who have pushed the most toxic elements of critical race theory and race-segregated trainings are James Peerey, Dori Ellis, David White (he/him), and Mark Sellers. They must be investigated by the Inspector General. pic.twitter.com/Zrhqf9aclA

    — Christopher F. Rufo (@realchrisrufo) August 27, 2020
    Here’s the bottom line: this is the first shot in the rebellion against critical race theory in the federal government. Casey Peterson has taken a courageous stand and the Inspector General must conduct a full investigation of Sandia Labs—and hold executives accountable.

    We are opening up a multi-front war against critical race theory in the federal government: (1) investigative reporting to expose the truth; (2) internal rebellions to increase the pressure; (3) inspector general investigations; (4) laying the groundwork for an executive order.

    It might take time, there might be losses, but we will achieve victory! Swords up!⚔️ Prayers up! pic.twitter.com/SYm4RmHJBp

    Not entirely sure who posts what, but anyway…

    “Continue to make popcorn & LMAO watching the chimps tear themselves apart.”

    Still that looking down upon the goyim-attitude, ey, apneamanlet? They will only respect you if you smack them in a freight wagon. Otherwise they’ll be the sadistic bystander, enjoying a terrible situation THEY created, even if they lose their tax farm in the process:

    High verbal IQ is all they have. No higher art, no great literature, no great architecture, no great music, no great painting. Just dialectics, they use to fill their media with “content”, to write legal texts, always to their own advantage, at the cost of the unsuspecting Christian Goys, or to write their lying version of history.

    Ah well, in 2020 and beyond, it is impossible for both white and kosher Americans, to do anything else than to act in the interest of Continental Europe.

    The popcorn eating will be done in China and continental Europe, while the kosher chimps will be torn apart as well.

    Anon, it is a shame that there are only a few (2-3) of us, still intelligent, mature and sane, to make rational observations of the declining state of the US, and mostly, the Western world. BTW: Keep an Eye in Japan now that Abe is going out.

    I post a comment hoping for an intelligent rebuttal or agreement, and get immature, insane kids, posting junk in volumn. Sigh.

    “Sandia Labs Goes Nuclear On Employee Who Sparked Internal Revolt Over Critical Race Theory (CRT)”

    Well, at least SandiaLabs knows how to defend itself. Kaboom!

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Critical_race_theory

    The SandiaLabs video.

    Short version:

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3S4STblnBb0

    Full length:

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zyNW9nlFDBk

    I’m not familiar with CRT. Apparently the figure heads are all black. Predictably it is a racial egalitarian movement, directed against “racism” and promotes full equality. Interesting is that CRT has issues with Jews as well, more signs that people-of-color see Jews as “whites”. They (correctly) see Jews and their involvement in the “civil rights movement” as hypocritical and self-serving, intending to use people-of-color as weapons against whites.

    “Duncan., what will you do when Trump is replaced with a figurehead and spokesman for the jewmerikan hegemony with one approved and groomed by the hidden deep state crowd? Will you continue to spam endless links reminding everyone here how much you despise(d) the Orange Ape? I think we get it by now.”

    He would be posting links fighting “white supremacy” all day instead and never lose a word about the hegemony of his own tribe.

    “I hate to break the news to you, but ‘trump’ does not rule the empire, and he has no power to change its overall course and direction in anything but the most trivial of ways. When he eventually does fade into the background, and someone else less obnoxious and uncouths ass is warming the ceremonial WH throne, but doing exactly the same things, or worse then he was, but with the all-important fawning approval of the media, ‘academia’, the CIA, and all the rest of them, what’ll you talk about then?”

    Trump may not run the empire, who couldn’t drain the Swamp, but he is still a little bit more than just an insignificant passerby. Just read the kosher media to feel the anger emanating from TPTB about this monkey wrench, thrown into the wheel-work of the ZOG-empire, by white America.

    “Will you tell us 50 times a day how happy you are ‘trumpster’ is gone and how much glad you are now empire once again has an establishment approved spokesman to put an acceptable spin and face on the corrupt and inept amerikan over-class endless wars and various crimes against humanity?”

    Its not as we didnt get that you hate the idiot-in-chief the first couple 100 “I ha8e trump” links…..

    You have been falsely accusing me for years of “being a jew”, while you miss the real deal when it is in front of your eyes.lol

    Trump doesn’t run the empire indeed, he doesn’t want to. He didn’t start a single war, good for him. But his presidency could very well initiate the breakup of the ZOG-empire. If he does, it would be a presidency well-spent.
