Try to think of it as financial feudalism.</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">They don't care about collecting paper which is worthless anyway, and they have the sole power to create as much of it as they could possibly want. What they can't do is make paper produce 'real' wealth. They need people willing to accept paper with numbers and faces and signatures on it to do that.</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">"Here's some paper so you can get started building that house/factory/store. What's that, you've run out of paper to give us back, that's okay, we'll just take the house/factory/store. Would anybody like some more paper?"</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">Yes of course, and after a period of fantastic expansion, they slam the brakes on the magic paper/credit machine and wait for the serfs to run out of paper. Once the factories, appartment complexes, shopping centers, corporations, media outlets are recentralized in their hands, you start hearing the siren song of "paper, paper, paper for everyone!".</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">Most banks are solvent, but they won't lend, why? Because they WANT more deed/share holders to run out of paper. Once the real economy is re-consolidated by the paper economy, it will be time to put everyone back to work, gotta get that paper yo! And so the paper/credit machine will start rolling again at a fever pitch, so by the time you cash your paycheck and get to the grocercy store, YOUR money is already worth less, buys less. So you have to just work harder! By the time you retire, you can't even live off the pension. You scratch your head wondering how you worked hard all your life and are struggling to get by.</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">Productive effort creates wealth, but over time, your share of the fruits of your labour becomes smaller and smaller as the inflation erodes the quality of your life and taxation shackles your ability to compete.</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">Well, that's my version of "the business cycle" anyway.</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">If only Mises was studied as much as Keynes.</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">Sorry in advance if this post is annoying or seems stupid or simplistic to anyone, but that is what I see.</span></span>MKhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13747182783467129315noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33324077.post-16233592455412361782008-10-25T23:57:00.003+02:002008-10-26T00:06:31.492+02:00<div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:lucida grande;font-size:180%;" ><span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">Very Good Reading!</span></span><br /></div><br /><span style="font-size:100%;"><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">"</span></span><span style=";font-family:Verdana;font-size:100%;" >We expropriated and wasted not only such real wealth (production) as there has been in the present times, but we wasted the accumulated wealth of all the preceding generations, and finally (and most disgusting of all) we then went into vast debt and consumed the wealth of future generations."</span><br /><br /><a href="http://www.321gold.com/editorials/mathid/mathid101508.html"><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">http://www.321gold.com/editorials/mathid/mathid101508.html</span></a>MKhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13747182783467129315noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33324077.post-78352915773083056652008-10-12T23:04:00.000+02:002008-10-12T23:07:48.977+02:00<span style="font-family: arial; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);">"Don't talk like one of them, you're not!

Until 1898 we didn't own a bit of territory outside the mainland of North America. At that time our national debt was a little more than $1,000,000,000. Then we became "internationally minded." We forgot, or shunted aside, the advice of the Father of our country. We forgot George Washington's warning about "entangling alliances." We went to war. We acquired outside territory. At the end of the World War period, as a direct result of our fiddling in international affairs, our national debt had jumped to over $25,000,000,000. Our total favorable trade balance during the twenty-five-year period was about</span><span style="font-size:100%;"> $24,000,000,000.

My gardens and fruit trees are doing great, and between now and next year I'll be adding roughly 6000 square meters of gardens and orchards. Now that is an investment. I work odd jobs for cash, and it mostly comes in faster than it goes out. In two years, inflation in food prices will mean next to nothing to me. Which will keep driving possible, in terms of fuel costs, folks, we ain't seen nothin' yet.</span><br /><br /></span></span><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghLcEwRhlclV3ApjuMsekB3VBIHgt_zHDC_z5Xg4zYGaFwIrDTapfSiLXwb6QQ8uASAh-XXvJocKYsoVEGIGDh2YGzc2-zYSBuHEGDdYYf1SAZIxqYITnqK4m6p8Dxzx9W0UNO/s1600-h/istheradifference.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghLcEwRhlclV3ApjuMsekB3VBIHgt_zHDC_z5Xg4zYGaFwIrDTapfSiLXwb6QQ8uASAh-XXvJocKYsoVEGIGDh2YGzc2-zYSBuHEGDdYYf1SAZIxqYITnqK4m6p8Dxzx9W0UNO/s400/istheradifference.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5124520029277545106" border="0" /></a><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:trebuchet ms;font-size:85%;" >I don't see a difference, do you still see a difference?</span><br /></div><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size:85%;" ><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"><br /></span></span>MKhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13747182783467129315noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33324077.post-66361311410194129472007-10-20T17:41:00.001+02:002007-10-20T17:58:09.522+02:00<div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 0);font-size:130%;" ><span style="font-family: georgia; font-weight: bold;">ALIVE and WELL</span></span><br /></div><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhqoWPSWUKgxKRyHJzJFT7U0DbB8jIUfJms6LDT28TJ_Hhgu7yf5OKBJWoFOigW7DG39cUcjOH76-oBSp5RPUyTJxq7Myf1XDoOrrg_o4FUJTUoAmh2OohjDMq_PQ827DLS-n1r/s1600-h/wbeard.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhqoWPSWUKgxKRyHJzJFT7U0DbB8jIUfJms6LDT28TJ_Hhgu7yf5OKBJWoFOigW7DG39cUcjOH76-oBSp5RPUyTJxq7Myf1XDoOrrg_o4FUJTUoAmh2OohjDMq_PQ827DLS-n1r/s400/wbeard.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5123446695475438210" border="0" /></a>MKhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13747182783467129315noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33324077.post-92004929090433474942007-05-06T20:16:00.000+02:002007-05-06T21:53:34.212+02:00<div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:130%;" ><span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 0);font-family:lucida grande;" >Please, Please, Please.....</span></span><br /><br /><a href="http://www.ronpaul2008.com/">http://www.ronpaul2008.com/</a><br /></div><span style="font-size:100%;"><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">Yes ladies and gentlemen, the rebels of the republic do have a leader capable of leading the rebellion against the Neocon Empire.

It always works like this....First we lie. Second we take. Third we legislate against competitors. The public always pays the bills. The middle class is always wiped out. The rich get richer and the poor get poorer. The rich project their ruthlessnes on the poor and rationalize countless justifications for the police state. The poor project THEIR greed on the rich and demand more and more from the middle class (which they generally consider to be rich). The politicians a.k.a. appointed plantation managers are always happy to suck the middle class dry (i.e. potential competitors) and transfer the wealth to the elites for 30 peices of silver. In Corporate welfare (or what is taught as being capitalism these days) private shareholders reap the bounty. In socialist revolutions (i.e. police states, martial law) after the colapse of corporate welfare (i.e. they've sucked everyone dry) as a natural consequece the 'party of the people' continues the 'business cycle'.<br /><br />Society is just the farming of people. really. deal with it.<br /></span>MKhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13747182783467129315noreply@blogger.com0
