Deal of the Century

Utilizing the brilliance of the editorial cartoons of Investors Business Daily's Michael Ramirez, a summarization of the Iran nuclear deal is presented in far greater eloquence and brevity than I could muster.




















Obviously, I cannot stand President Obama, finding him an arrogant, bitter, spiteful and racist individual; down right evil at times and an opponent of America as founded. But make no mistake, Obama is not an idiot nor does he not know what he is doing.

Rather, he is an intelligent ideologue who fields off what limited questions of relevancy he receives as illegitimate, supported by a complicit and propagandist mainstream media who move the subject away with swiftness, discrediting opponents in orchestration. That is great work if you can get it, and astonishingly, he's got it.

However, if the synopsis presented by Martin Armstrong has merit, it would explain quite a bit. As Armstrong accurately states, "Whenever there is some political deal, it is NEVER what they present to the public with such magnanimous fanfare. There is always a hidden agenda".

No doubt!

However, to consider that Obama has turned the middle east upside down and reached out to both Cuba and Iran to squeeze Russia, drawing Russia closer to China is quite a reach. If it is what is at play, it is a enormously dangerous gamble, one with a loss that could catapult the United States to the "ash heap of history" Reagan described.

It is noted, however, that according to billionaire hedge fund manager Paul Singer says China is collapsing, noting their upcoming crash as "way bigger than subprime".  Russia is also under duress, with reports of coup d'état activities in recent months.

Caliphate is the real objective.  Obama does not hold America in high regard, and wishes to establish a caliphate in the middle east, a Greater Syria if you will, similar to the old Ottoman Empire.  It would appear Obama seeks Iran to be host country, as a Muslim nation rises to superpower status while America is weakened from within in orchestrated fashion by a president gone rogue.

ISIS is doing the dirty work of cleansing, and out enemy within is now assisting in the development of a nuclear weapon for Iran and financing through Iran terrorist groups like HAMAS and Hezbollah.

The United States was placed in great peril with this deal, and future citizens will die due to this utterly despicable and irresponsible act by a brazen president acting outside or historical avenues of legislation.  The Congress, which has allowed his reckless behavior, should also bear responsibility.

Elections have consequences, and with the presidential election of 2012, those consequences will be deadly for future generations,  In fact, this could unravel so quickly, it might by you and I fully engaged before the next generation gets the chance.

With this action of aiding and abetting the enemy, coupled with the endangerment of the American people, treason is charged and once again, I call for the immediate impeachment of President Obama.

Cash is King

Recently, trial balloons regarding the move to a cashless society have been appearing in various media outlets.  Among those who champion this effort are Bill Gates, an elite progressive who along with his colleagues conclude that the ruling class can make your decisions better than you can, given their elite intellect.

While a cashless society seems pretty cool and reasonable on many fronts, including efficiency, the effort to push the idea is not by accident, and should be considered yet another clandestine effort to seize additional control over the citizenry.

In the aftermath of the housing bubble crash of 2008-09, which decimated wealth and left the economy staggering, President Obama and his team, in concert with the FED, made incorrect decisions that are cascading negatively behind the scenes.

The stock market has almost tripled since '09, which is good news; unless you note the money supply is up over 5 fold during that time making your investment worth less. Legalized theft. So, all the big banks got bailed out, but who bailed you out?  Nobody.

The slate is indeed about to be wiped clean, and arenas to hide in are very limited, and the collective damage could knockout the US economy,  which would likely have a nasty ripple effect globally.  Would the IMF step up to bail the FED out, and what price would US sovereignty pay for such action?

Or will you bail the US out?

In 2013, the Cyprus government took, or stole, approximately 10 percent of cash deposits from its citizenry without consent as a described "bail-in" to help the crumbling economy gain solvency.  Should the United States suffer an unprecedented crash, don't think for a moment it could not happen here.  It would be much easier for the government to seize cash in a digital economy than to confiscate cash from the citizenry.

But that is not all.

Have you ever had a credit card cancelled, or had your available charge amount decreased?  In a cashless society, just so to limit risk on potential defaults, your purchases may be declined by the ruling class who deem you incapable of making correct low risk purchases.

With the government in charge of health care, items in your grocery cart may be declined for purchase because they do not fit the dietary regime you have been placed on by the food police.  No chocolate cookies for you!

2015 V8 Chevy Camaro
That new 6.2L 426-horsepower V8 Chevrolet Camaro you have been saving for simply does not meet the common guidelines for fuel mileage and is deemed a threat to the governmental efforts in combating global climate change; therefore, that purchase will not be granted through your bank. And cash is not legally accepted.

The list could go on, and on, and on.

While progressives make the push for a cashless society to become a reality, many are aware of the ominous threat to our freedom it really is.  Martin Armstrong, over at his Armstrong Economics blog, has an in-depth and outstanding piece where he discusses The New Age of Economic Totalitarianism.

Signature Bank Chairman Scott Shay was recently on CNBC discussing this topic, and wrote an essay noting the wide ranging threat to our freedom a cashless society is. As noted in the excellent piece attached, it would be most wise to keep your hand invisible to an oppressive and untrustworthy government.

"This would be the ultimate form of control. Because – without access to money – people couldn’t resist, couldn’t hide and couldn’t escape".

Forget going off the grid with any measurable success.


While a cashless society may ring logical to many, for those who embrace freedom, cash should always remain the base of financial operation in free markets eliminating potential manipulation.

After all, cash is king!
