After writing many articles in the past few years – long before it was fashionable even among alternative news services – explaining that the ChiComs were on the proverbial thin ice with their huge 1.4 billion population, we find this weird article explaini ...
January 19, 2012
And thus the Brits crow ... again. Or to put it more precisely, the Anglosphere power elite that is apparently behind much of this weary world's destruction and bloodshed. Why do they "allow" the release of this article on a functionary media of their own contr ...
January 18, 2012
One of our favorite mainstream journos, Ambrose Evans-Pritchard, writes in his Telegraph blog page that the current EU monetary union is bankrupting Europe. Good for him. More and more evidently, it's true. The question is, then, why insist on it? The facts are ...
January 18, 2012
We have made to us what seems obvious – a commitment to analyzing direct history – and now many things are coming into focus. It now seems to us that this puffed-British phone-hacking scandal is nothing more than an effort by the powers-that-be to put into ...

"They" are at it again. Supposedly the Dutch government had the bright idea to create a global "financial tribunal." But who gets up in the morning and decides that what the world needs is a better way to resolve disputes about derivatives and other artificial ...

Free-Market Analysis: Suddenly, having pushed Europe away, the City is eagerly embracing China, as we can see from the New York Times article excerpt above. Do you believe this, dear reader? We don't. To us it seems like one more step on the "long march" toward ...
January 16, 2012
Here, again, we see that the top elites are doing as they see fit and anyone who continues to maintain that there is some sort of schism between Europe, London and Washington is likely exaggerating what's taking place. The IMF is a creature of the Anglosphere a ...
January 13, 2012
Wow, what an article. At a time when many in the alternative media were shouting out loud about an impending financial crisis, many of the top men at the US Federal Reserve could only make jokes about desperate discounts being given out by house-builders that f ...
January 13, 2012
Why shouldn't US brokers be able to post encomiums on the Internet? From the point of view of those who run the US Securities and Exchange Commission, brokers that place praise or - heaven help them - self-praise on "social networking" sites are placing the con ...
January 12, 2012
We have learned that the US recession is over and that the only reason Europe is in trouble is because Southern European countries like Greece won't rein in their spendthrift ways. But as an alternative new site, we have never subscribed to the idea that what h ...
January 11, 2012
The almost genocidal nature of modern "austerity" as interpreted by the current crop of European one-world technocrats has come in for some mild criticism in the pages of the Washington Post. Surprise! It must be really bad in Greece for this august, mainstream ...
January 11, 2012
Oh, boy. Here's what we call an elite dominant social theme – that the West and the East are not only converging economically but also in terms of regulatory competence and concern for the welfare of the individual consumer/investor. Why is it an elite theme ...
January 10, 2012
Thank goodness Germany's Angela Merkel and France's Nicolas Sarkozy have agreed to save the Western world by creating more jobs. Unemployment is anathema to them and now they have vowed to provide people in Europe with the work they need. They also want Greece ...
January 10, 2012
We wish we could be more positive about this well written and insightful article in The New Yorker. But it reminds us everything we have come to dislike about corporate America. The US is the biggest empire in the world, probably ever, and its power elite is de ...
January 09, 2012
Late last week, in a blog called "Notes on arts and entertainment from the staff of The New Yorker," this august and once-witty magazine launched an astonishing attack on libertarian candidate and US Congressman Ron Paul, casting him as a scientific ignoramus. ...
January 09, 2012
Conrad Black, the former Canadian publisher of numerous prestigious mainstream newspapers, was apparently unjustly imprisoned for corporate corruption and as a result he has discovered the injustice of the current Western industrial-penitentiary complex. He's w ...
January 06, 2012
The Obama administration has announced a new page in a decade of war. But is this really the case? We would argue that this downsizing is noteworthy because it acknowledges that the pretense of using "citizen armies" to realize the New World Order is actually d ...
January 06, 2012
We learn from this Economist article that the situation in India is even worse than has been portrayed. Like China and Brazil, the enormous floods of money created by central banking have been applied inefficiently and without much attention to the actual neces ...
January 05, 2012
The powers-that-be are pushing a transaction tax once again. For those who want to rule the world, a transaction tax is ideal. Everyone from the largest to the smallest would likely be under an affirmative obligation to keep some sort of log of trades and trans ...
January 05, 2012
In his latest attack on Austrian economics money entrepreneur Anthony Migchels seems to make the case that Austrian economics may be part of a Zionist plot to impose one-world government. Now, we have pointed out that Anthony Migchels, like "greenbacker" Ellen ...
January 04, 2012
The Federal Reserve is at it again. This increasingly despised institution's leaders seem to believe that by making the Fed's unconstitutional behavior more "transparent" – clearer – they will somehow make it more palatable as well. This article by Bloomber ...
January 04, 2012
Paul Krugman is at it again, defending the socialist economics of John Maynard Keynes against the common sense of normal people. Nobody understands debt, he writes, except of course for ... him. Krugman. He understands it so well that he is convinced that natio ...
January 03, 2012
We reported the other day on how China has further opened up its "markets" to "investments." And now India is doing the same thing (see article above). Coincidence? We try to look past that these days. Nope. One can make the argument that the Anglosphere elites ...
January 03, 2012
We received the following feedback from "Col." And while we are not much for military metaphors generally, the point made in the feedback seems fairly appropriate to us. The feedback is mostly comprised of a series of headlines that one can find in numerous pla ...
January 02, 2012
This article presents reasons for opposing libertarian candidate for US president Dr. Ron Paul that tick many of the dominant social themes of the elite that have been used to frighten middle classes into giving up wealth and power to globalist institutions lik ...
December 30, 2011
The Internet Reformation is a process not an episode. US GOP Presidential candidate Ron Paul shows us the accuracy of this statement. Ron Paul and his libertarian allies are winning the battle for the hearts and minds of Americans by the millions. In fact, they ...
December 30, 2011
Oh, boy. China is dotted with ghost cities and crashing trains. The solution to China's incredible boom and (eventual) almost incomprehensibly ruinous bust is ... more foreign investment! The world is tapped out and thus the knick-knacks that the Chinese govern ...
December 29, 2011
We have been watching what we call the Internet Reformation unfold for about a decade now – and as people begin to understand the Way the World REALLY Works, attacks on the concept of a free market have escalated. As people in the West used the Internet to di ...
December 28, 2011
Anthony Migchels lately has been kind enough to honor our modest pages with economic commentary and now he has used one of our recent articles as a jumping-off point to blast gold as a money metal at Hentry Makow's popular conspiracy website. You can see an exc ...
December 28, 2011
Here is a strange case. Anonymous has apparently attacked Stratfor in support of WikiLeaks, and yet WikiLeaks is evidently and obviously (to us anyway) a kind of false-flag facility. We've had our doubts about Anonymous as well. Here's something about Anonymous ...
December 27, 2011
Is it time for Wall Street to fall on the ceremonial sword of tactical asset allocation? In the long-term, this is the only strategy that works, but for the last ten years – as for much of the rest of last century – Wall Street has proven impervious to its ...
December 26, 2011
Every once in a while, and with increasing frequency, major media presents a commentary wondering "how high gold can go" and whether the yellow metal is now in an official bubble. Every once in a while, we point out that gold is being driven by market manipulat ...
December 26, 2011
Oh, boy, who couldn't see this coming? We've written about the BRIC inflationary instability – especially Brazil and India – and now this economic insight has been blessed by that maven of behind-the-times analysis, TIME Magazine. Yes, TIME Magazine, which ...
December 23, 2011
Bill Clinton wants to return to the days when three big television networks explained the Way the World Worked. According to Dilence Sogwood, a financial-industry DB feedbacker, Clinton spoke at a luncheon he attended and made these and other provocative points ...
December 23, 2011
To us, this is a very disturbing article (see excerpt above). We have long admired Ms. Rabinowitz for her unrelenting reporting of phony child-abuse incarcerations throughout the United States back in the 1980s. For a while, rogue prosecutors were putting innoc ...
December 22, 2011
It is not enough that there is likely no such thing as global warming or that, even if there was, humans could do anything about it. Now, thanks to a lunatic ruling by the top EU courts, airlines around the world will have to pay a "carbon tax" and participate ...
December 21, 2011
The slow poisoning of Japanese citizens is going unreported in the West except for some dedicated journals and web-reports including, importantly, Rense.com, which has stayed on the story seemingly every day. It is a very important one, because it encompasses n ...
December 21, 2011
Well, it is finally happening. A legal challenge to the power elite's money system has been launched in a Canadian Court "for the benefit of Canadians ... and to restore the use of the Bank of Canada for the benefit of Canadians. Here's some more from the press ...
December 20, 2011
The Killing of bin Laden was voted top news story of 2011 and from our point of view it goes downhill from there. Having observed in detail how elite dominant social themes work, we're well prepared to analyze this year's top news stories. What we will do in th ...
December 20, 2011
We always have a hard time with things like bank stress tests and demands that banks hold "extra capital." The Wall Street Journal (see excerpt above) is out with a "sourced" story that the Fed will demand large banks hold more capital. But what exactly does th ...
December 19, 2011
The Economist "newspaper" has finally caught up to the Daily Bell. Well ... not really. This is an interesting article that The Economist has just launched (and thanks to feedbacker Thomas Molitor for bringing it to our attention). But the point of the article, ...
December 19, 2011
This is a stunning statistic, in our view. According to a study generated via numbers collected by the US Bureau of Labor Statistics and reported in USA Today (see above excerpt) one out of every three people in the US will face arrest by the time they are 23. ...
December 16, 2011
Right on schedule, the International Monetary Fund's Christine Lagarde has emerged to call for a united, Western effort to salvage the Eurozone and perhaps the euro. This is entirely predictable in our view and has to do with the larger strategy of the Anglosph ...
December 16, 2011
If one examines the rush of events surrounding the unraveling of the European Union, it becomes more and more difficult to believe it is merely a series of coincidences. We've covered this in other articles, but what's going on continues to affirm our belief th ...
December 15, 2011
The secretive Bank for Settlements has just warned that Asia is vulnerable to a catastrophic "global credit crunch," according to the Sidney Morning Herald (see above). We translate it thusly: The world is HEADING for an Asian financial crisis. Yes, increasingl ...
December 15, 2011
Ambrose Evans-Pritchard, one of the very best mainstream financial journos, is back with another update on the Chinese economic collapse, and we appreciate his updates. We've been harping on this theme for at least two years. Just Google "Daily Bell" and "China ...
December 14, 2011
Kenneth Rogoff is the International Monetary Fund's former chief economist, and he and co-author Carmen Reinhart are somewhat dubious about capitalism's future. But this is, in fact, a dominant social theme of the larger Anglosphere power elite for whom Rogoff ...
December 14, 2011
The United Nations is evidently on its way to becoming a fearsome enforcer of global judicial authority. As we can see from the above article, when the International Criminal Court faces a blockage, it now approaches the UN for enforcement of its demands. The U ...
December 13, 2011
We're not sure who Eric deCarbonnel is, but he has posted five YouTube videos that contain extraordinary allegations about the US Government's Exchange Stabilization Fund. In aggregate, the series is called, "What I have been afraid to blog about: THE ESF AND I ...
December 12, 2011
We've already indicated that we believe the Anglosphere power elite is attempting to create a kind of Great Depression in order to ease the path of world government. This squib of an article in MarketWatch (excerpted above) – unnoticed by most of the mainstre ...
