The people could have screwed and stymied the gov’t by simply rejecting and refusing to buy imports after 1975. Ever watch old movies? And see the streets filled with many various American made cars? That’s when we lived good. Wives not working. One household income.

Its too late now to resist. In fact, if you wanted to stymie and screw the Gov’t these days, boycott American made products and increase your buying of imports. And if you have employees? Give them pay cuts. Take vacations overseas.

The “gov’t” of by and for global corporations, with phony exchange rates, and high taxes on domestic business operations, forced jobs and money to go off shore, and forced Americans to buy imports, and screw their own country.

SIMPLE. If you had a choice, and bought the import, YOU contributed to the demise or lower living standards of the USA.

Things really strange right now. We got gold bear stocks looking like a reverse HS trying to move up while gold has broken out of down trend.checked some chartist and the same.Time to keep a eye on them.. Like.. From different chartist.

I was wondering about her if she was affected because we haven’t heard from her since then and she mentioned she was under warning. It’s not like we can just drive over and check on her. I’m glad she’s okay and know she is prepared. Next time hope she can get a solar generator or something but won’t help towers. Hope she has close neighbors.

That is sooo FUNNY  because its SOOO ignorant    ..Maxine is ignorant and PROUD of it !  hehe

It makes you wonder about the election process and democracy …thats why the Founders never gave us a Democracy and only land owners were allowed to vote !

They had something to lose if Government failed !  If you put people in charge that have nothing to lose they simply vote themselves what you got..   You are legalizing theft !

Government is all about CONTROL !

A week after Irma , she and her cat are still without Internet access at their home . Two cell towers destroyed and lots of other issues for communication . Moggy and cat were ‘traumatized’ , but okay . I thought the group here would like to know that she is safe .

That’s good to know about the bleach not working. Years ago as a visiting nurse there was a patient with breathing problems getting worse. I don’t just check the patient but environment. I noticed there was a musty moldy type smell in his room and told them I’m even reacting to it. We don’t have too much of a problem due to the dry climate but living on the beach before I recognized it right away.
Well next day I came back one of the walls was taken apart and there was mold in it and also behind a dresser on the dresser. The air conditioner was leaking through the wall and things were starting to mold. I think they used a bleach solution and got rid of the dresser. Although the patient no longer having breathing problems.

When all your nearby family is affected it just makes it worse.
Bad thing is something’s are just irreplaceable, good thing is that you can maybe make it better or suit your needs of now.

I looked up FEMA for you and found this. I noticed your country, Orange is on the list for disaster assistance. You should take it.

I don’t think they’re getting in the EU anytime soon. 🙂

I question whether or not they should still be in Nato?

“western terminus for the silk road”

We’ll see. Certainly a possibility.

Re Swaps

I would argue the swaps do indeed satisfy real far eastern demand, which u could/can see when the London morning mkt is strong, as it was earlier this year. Later in the day u get the Crimex dumping that caps/knocks prices down.

That Crimex selling can go on forever, as I believe the positions are swapped out to LBMA forwards…ie the scum Crimex sell Dec contracts, then later buys the Dec contracts back and sells LBMA forwards simultaneously…those LBMA fwds then sit forever on the Scum/Dealer books and are not margined.

Why sell Crimex, when they cud just sell LBMA fwds…Crimex is v public…easy to see and therefore the selling is very scary to longs.

Where I see their great weakness is the ridiculous heights they are sending the Worlds SM’s to, how low they are pushing Bond rates and how relatively low they have held PM’s. The SM has to be riddled with crowded trades, especially short volatility ones…at some point the SM will crater, the CB’s will not be able to help, as rates are still @ zero…all they can do is print…which will blow up the bond mkts and PM’s will go ape….plus of course we will find out there is no metal in all the ETF’s.

more and more, it looks like turkey will become a major western terminus for the silk road –  a port on the med, and a toehold in southern europe.

Turkey Faces Threats For Inking Landmark Arms Deal With Russia

The long awaited deal has taken place. A deposit has already been paid. Turkey has finally signed the $2.5bn (£1.9bn) contract with Russia to buy S-400 advanced missile defense system. With a range of 400 kilometers (248 miles), the system can shoot down up to 80 targets simultaneously, aiming two missiles at each one, at an altitude of up to 30 km.

The system is not operationally compatible with the systems used by NATO countries, which gives Turkey a military capacity independent of the alliance. NATO commanders will not have control over it. The identification friend or foe (IFF) equipment won’t prevent Turkey from using it against NATO aircraft and missiles. Reaching full operational capability will require Russian personnel to be stationed in Turkey on advice, assistance and training missions.

The technology transfer component of the S-400 deal is especially important as it would allow Turkey to rapidly expand domestic defense industry with Russia’s help. Russia would supply two batteries and help Ankara build two more such systems. A few years ago, the US refused to let Turkey produce Patriot air defense systems on its soil and the deal was off.

Ankara does not have industrial infrastructure to produce air defense systems. Russian specialists will have to come and build it from scratch. As a result, Russia will get access to the defense infrastructure of a NATO member state. The agreement to build the Akkuyu nuclear power plant in Turkey, which is to be launched by 2023, is another example of fruitful economic cooperation.

a friend of mine who is a retired drywall contractor posted this:

I remember in 2000 when GATA’s analysis reasoned that there was about 4 years supply left for manipulation of PM prices. Here we are 17 years later and there seems to be no bottom of the supply for manipulation.

Defense Secretary Mattis Says US Will Act On North Korea Missiles That Pose A Threat

Down 10% more in pre-market. Hopefully Mac has a plan because this sucks

“Could be someone reading the Rig, as the way PM’s have been hit would suggest a bullish Fed announcement, they tend to smash hard when they know they will have to announce bullish data/comments…that way headline numbers are always muted ie Gold at 1340 is a nothing but at 1400 is big news etc.”

That is my bet for the week. They have smashed especially hard the last week. Course the rebound won’t be as fast as the smash, but we should rebound a little.

One thing seems sure, these pm shares aren’t forecasting $1400 anytime soon.

The creatures are concentrated into smaller pools where they cannot hide and they cannibalize each other …self survival rules the day ! !

They no longer share with each other their spoils ,now the turn on each other..and Cannibalize …..All Trump has to do lower the water level and the process begins ..

A most pleasant thought !
