Euro
drops to record-low vs dollar. Thu
Mar 5, 2015 The euro’s exchange rate has dropped to its lowest level against

[Time to visit Paris.. or wait until winter is over?.. time to
update my French, I guess.. Mi 1ra beca la gané a Francia: Cs Pol en la Escuela de Altos Est
de Paris, pero no llego sino 3 meses después de recibir la del US, la
Fulbright.. yo y mi esposa nos quedamos con las ganas de ir a Paris.. no perdemos
la esperanza.. por lo menos nuestras hijas fueron ya.. eso nos alegró, aunque pagaron
20 euros por un pitillo de moño rojo que es gratis en Cusco. Es la mejor
marihuana del mundo en uno de los afluentes del Amazonas, el rio Urubamba. ..
Cómo se puede visitar la Mona Lisa o entrar cualquier museo sin antes haber
fumado 3 puffs de moño rojo?. Los museos son aburridos .. con moño rojo cobran
vida.. más aún si uno se conecta la música preferida al oÃdo.. pura Rev in 2 senses, nos dijo una de mis hijas. Como nos gustarÃa regresar a
los 30, dije yo.. Escojan el paÃs y les pagamos el round-trip ticket, dijo una de mis hijas la navidad
pasada.. Paris serÃa la única manera de
regresar a los 30,.. dije. Quizá también visitar Turquia y pasear en una barca
del Bósforo en Estambul, dijo mi esposa.. pero eso serÃa pedir mucho, dije..
Demasiado seria pedir un viaje a China y visitar el Great Wall.. dijo .. ya stán
instalando “corredor eléctrico” para los viejos.. ya no tendrÃamos que
caminar.. Solo tomar fotos de los mejores sights de China. .. Para soñar las
mujeres siempre nos lleva la delantera. A mà me basta Paris y un moño rojo]

Greece
will need 3rd bailout: Spain. Wed Mar 4, 2015 Spain’s economy minister
says Greece will need a third bailout to cover its financing needs.
[Para mi
esa nación necesita nuevos lideres e imaginar junto al pueblo la manera de
salir de la Union Europea los más rápido
posible.. ese chiquero esta lleno de mierda y limpiarlo va a ser imposible.. el
único plan que tienen los de la troika es regalar Grecia al mejor postor..
privatizar es lo único que saben hacer.. cierto que vendrá capital golondrino,
de ese que compra para revender.. pero eso no crea trabajo para nadie.. solo
recicla la deuda a escala mayor.. La trampa de la especulación financiera es lo
que está liquidando esa Union y luego la del USA , quien sobrevive gracias a
su soldadesca y sus guerras.
Si Grecia
no puede hacer nada para crear autonomÃa y destino propio, su suerte dependerá
de lo que ocurra a nivel mundial y a este nivel solo hay dos opciones: violenta
guerra nuclear vs. las guerra de desgaste actual (tanto militar como económica)
Si se
desmonta las guerras de desgaste actual, adios al business N.1 del imperio. USA
no tiene nada mas que vender que no sean armas, es lo único que le da vida al
dollar. La competencia en inversión productiva la va perdiendo rápidamente frente
a Rusia y China. La moneda USA esta sobrevaluada y no pueden vender lo poco –bueno
que tiene. Las redes polÃticas que le dieron sostén al business militar se le
van cayendo a pedazos, cada vez pierden mas posiciones. Solo les queda imprimir mas y mas dólares de la nada; esto
es, hacer mas honda la fosa en la que van a ser enterrados.
No pueden
tampoco desmontar la actual guerra de desgaste, no sabrÃan donde poner sus
soldados, eliminarlos con el mercenarismo del ISIS no es ya posible. Los mercenarios
cobran y el dinero no llega a ellos (mucha corrupción de por medio) en cambio
la soldadesca mercenaria llega de regreso a su paÃs natal y siembra allà terrorismo, que es lo único que saben
hacer para sobrevivir. El imperio ha creado sus sepultureros y aun cuando
quieran desaparecerlos, ya no pueden, han devenido autónomos.
No les
queda otra que seguir armándolos, alimentar guerras y el negocio de no mas de
10 grandes trasnacionales. Son estos el eje del 1% de los ricos, y no hay modo
de sacarlos de la mira del fusil de mercenarios a quienes armaron. Rusia y
China podrÃan reactivar la mundialización neoliberal, pero los han acusado de
ser ellos los que siembran terrorismo, mientras les aplican sanciones
económicas que no son sino pillaje piratesco, mas exactamente, terrorismo
económico. Solo hay 2 salidas a la crisis actual, las dos son violentas y en solo
en una de ellas hay solución para Grecia:
1- El dia
que el paranoico de Israel lance una bomba atómica contra Iran, ese dia desaparecerán
decenas de ciudades en el Oeste y centenares de bases nucleares apuntando hacia
Rusia y China. No se dejara posibilidad de respuesta sino solo la rendición
incondicional. Quizá ni siquiera la rendición porque no habrá nadie en el USA
que la firme. La firmaran dos o tres paÃses de Europa que alimentaron el
guerrerismo de NATO. El aventurerismo militar del psicópata de Israel contra
Iran será asi el punto de quiebre entre el acabosis transicional actual del
imperio y su violenta destrucción, como ocurrió con la Alemania nazi en la 2da
guerra mundial.
2- Si Rusia
y China no responden al atentado contra Iran, eso será signo de rendición y
sumisión y lo que viene seria su ocupación
militar por las fuerzas de NATO y su destrucción como Estados-Nación. Esto que
no significa que los pueblos ya armados del mundo van a rendirse también. Lo más
posible es el estallido de la violencia anárquica a nivel mundial que tendrá
solo un objetivo claro: ajustarle cuentas a los ricos que lucraron con la
guerra y el holocausto ruso-chino. Si el actual caos imperial no puede ser
controlado, menos podrá serlo el que podrÃa venir si Rusia y China se rinden.
Nadie en su juicio sano –si eso queda- podrÃa aceptar tanta muerte sin temor
por la propia vida. La violencia
anarquica será letal contra quienes violentamente se adueñaron del mundo.]

ZERO HEDGE
One
Last Look At The Real Economy Before It Implodes - Part 1. Submitted
by Tyler Durden
on 03/04/2015 The establishment has done everything in its power to hide the
most foundational of economic realities, namely the reality of dying
demand. Why? Because the longer they can hide true demand, the more time they
have to steal what little independent wealth remains within the system while
positioning the populace for the next great con. For now we will only say that the
program of manipulation we have seen since 2008 is clearly changing. The
fact of catastrophic demand loss is becoming apparent. Such a loss only ever
precedes a wider fiscal event.

Who's
Isolated Now? Kazakhstan Authorities Announce Plans To De-Dollarize Economy.Submitted
by Tyler Durden on 03/04/2015. Following the
approval of the government, Kazakhstan's Central Bank has announced it plans
to de-dollarize its economy by the end of 2016. The goal is to avoid the
macroeconomic instability that the USD creates and to give priority to Tenge in
trade agreements (banning price designations in foreign exchange). Coming just
2 weeks after the ratification
of the $100 billion BRICS bank, and Russia's creation of a
SWIFT-alternative, one wonders - as one by one foreign nations agree non-dollar
trade and swap agreements - who is becoming 'isolated' now?

"There’s

Durden on 03/04/2015 Today, for the second time since 2012, the fate of
Obamacare lies in the hands of the Supreme Court, and like last time, it will
likely be all about Justice John Roberts ' decision. Later today, the US
Supreme Court will hear oral arguments in the case of King v. Burwell, the
latest challenge to Obamacare, and one that could potentially leave it gutted
from an unexpected direction. As a result, nearly eight million Americans
could lose their health insurance depending on how the Supreme Court interprets
four words in the "Affordable" Care Act.

How's
That Deflation Working Out For You? . Submitted by Tyler
Durden . The BLS put out their monthly CPI lie last week. They issued
the proclamation that inflation is dead. Did you know your costs are 0.1%
lower than they were one year ago. They then used these deflation numbers to
proclaim your real wages soared last month. It’s all good. The American
consumer is so flush with cash, they decided to spend less money for the second
month in a row. The Wall Street shysters are so happy with declining
consumer spending, declining corporate profits, and a global recession, they
pushed the NASDAQ up to 5,000 for the first time in 15 years.

Great
Big Fat Greek Expectations. Submitted by Tyler
Durden on 03/04/2015. It is becoming clear that a pretty wide divide
seems to appear between what many people think the Syriza government in Athens
should do, and what they actually can do at this point in time. It
should be useful to clarify what this divide consists of, and how it can be
breached, if that is at all possible.
In particular, many are of the opinion that Greece cannot escape its
suffocating debt issues without leaving the eurozone and going its own way,
reintroducing the drachma and defaulting on much of its €240 billion debt. Those
who think so may well be right. But right now that is mostly irrelevant.
Because Alexis Tsipras and his men and women simply don’t have their voters’
mandate to go down that road. They may at some time in the future, but they
don’t today. The expectations are too great, and certainly too immediate.

AP Analysis: Speech fallout could determine
Netanyahu's fate
JERUSALEM (AP) - With Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu facing a tough re-election fight in two weeks, the U.S. Congress has handed him an unprecedented boost with its effusive welcome to a message that resonates at home: Iran cannot be trusted as a threshold nuclear state. Which way it goes for Netanyahu may hinge on whether Israel is in some perceptible way punished by the White House for its leader's extraordinary offensive against a U.S. president. If he is seen as having bravely spoken truth to power and escaped consequences, the episode will likely help him at the polls.

Netanyahu warns US 'bad deal' would put
Iran on nuclear path
WASHINGTON (AP) - In a direct challenge to the White House, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stood before Congress on Tuesday and bluntly warned the U.S. that an emerging nuclear agreement with Iran "paves Iran's path to the bomb." President Barack Obama pushed back sternly, saying the U.S. would never sign such a deal and Netanyahu was offering no useful alternative. In the U.S. spotlight for a day, the Israeli leader showed no uncertainty. "This is a bad deal. It is a very bad deal. We are better off without it," he declared in an emotionally charged speech that was arranged by Republicans, aggravated his already-strained relations with Obama and gambled with the longstanding bipartisan congressional support for Israel.
