Neoliberalism Has Met Its Match in China posted by Ellen Brown via jess, 2019-08-09 23:45:54
When the Federal Reserve cut interest rates on July 31st for the first time in more than a decade, commentators were asking why. According to official data, the economy was rebounding, unemployment was below 4%, and GDP growth was above 3%. If anything, by the Fed’s own reasoning, it should have been raising rates.

The Exaltation Option in a Lost World of Alienation and Meaninglessness posted by lex, 2019-08-09 07:51:45
Fairly hefty title no doubt, but be assured before I begin the import is as light as a feather as we are all born to it. (full story)

Gold Price Increase Defies Market Manipulators posted by Paul Craig Roberts via darcy, 2019-08-08 17:51:28
After years of orchestrated 'short selling' Gold has lately moved up sharply reaching $1,510 this morning. The gold price has continued to rise despite the continuing practice of dumping large volumes of naked contracts in the futures market. The gold price is driven down by market manipulators but quickly recovers and moves up. I haven’t an explanation at this time for the new force that is more powerful than the short-selling that has been used to control the price of gold. (full story)

Inside the Submissive Void: Propaganda, Censorship, Power and Control posted by Greg Maybury via cyd, 2019-08-07 22:30:05
"Nothing appears more surprising to those who consider human affairs with a philosophical eye than the ease with which the many are governed by the few; and the implicit submission, with which men resign their own sentiments and passions to those of their rulers." -- David Hume, Of the First Principles of Government, 1768.

 We’re All Enemies of the State: Draconian Laws, Precrime & the Surveillance/Police State posted by John W. Whitehead via jaxie, 2019-08-06 21:24:47
“The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by an endless series of hobgoblins, most of them imaginary.”—H.L. Mencken
We should be aware that pan-surveillance does not and has never prevented crime or "kept us safe", however, it does oppress the people and rob them of their inalienable rights, particularly the Right to PRIVACY and personal FREEDOM -- be aware and beware of those unrepresentative minorities that wish to enslave entire populations today.

 Trump, the Best Weapon Russia and China Have posted by Prof. Strangelove, 2019-08-04 23:32:17
A president that intentionally divides the American nation based on race, religion and hate, compromises all aspects of America's culture including its competitiveness, as quite simply, a house divided cannot stand. Trump, with his tribal, divisive, hate-filled rhetoric, largely aimed at non-white Americans, is doing such serious harm to the nation that his perverse leadership style must be rectified one way or the other, immediately, not least because by internally dividing a nation competing nations gain the advantage, as is clearly evident today.

Trump Administration Is Coming After Encrypted Privacy Applications posted by Trevor Timm via stacey, 2019-08-02 21:02:12
The attempt by government to gain access to our last right to privacy and ESSENTIAL security is brazen to the extreme. Put simply government and agencies want 'backdoors' to allow them easy access to encrypted software applications and hardware such as iPhones. Indeed, but forcing the creation of backdoors is self-defeating as it punches such a large hole in security that hacker kiddies could easily gain access and chaos would ensue as all our security, banking etc, could easily be hacked and no assurances are given by government for creating a picnic for hackers, such as compensation for such financial losses, as it is they/gov that forced the initial compromise. Not that government has ever given a damn about the people, it simply wants in, and we take all the risks as usual. Governments like this no nation needs. (full story)

 Assange Vindicated: Deep State Wolf Pack after Assange Gets Taste of Legal Reality posted by Tom Coburg via jess, 2019-08-01 23:12:07
A US judge has ruled that WikiLeaks was fully entitled to publish the Democratic National Congress (DNC) emails, which means no law was broken. The ruling is highly significant as it could impact upon the US extradition proceedings against WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange, as well as the ongoing imprisonment of whistleblower Chelsea Manning.

 America is powering the UK’s preparations for war – it is they that need to be deterred, not Iran posted by Robert Fisk via stella, 2019-07-31 22:17:19
It’s about time we wised up to what is going on in this utterly farcical “crisis” in the Gulf, this charade of lies and pomposity which Trump and his doggies in London are presenting to us. (full story)
