American Oligarchy: How The 0.01% Contributes 42% Of All Campaign Cash. by
Mike Krieger via Liberty Blitzkrieg blog, Submitted by Tyler Durden
on 04/27/2015.
This is an economic fight,
but this is also a political fight. The biggest financial institutions aren’t
just big – they wield enormous political power. Last December, Citibank
lobbyists wrote an amendment to Dodd-Frank and persuaded their friends in
Washington to attach it to a bill that had to pass or the government would have
been shut down. And when there was pushback over the amendment, the CEO of
JPMorgan, Jamie Dimon, personally got on the phone with Members of Congress to
secure their votes. How many individuals who are looking for a mortgage or a
credit card could make that call? How many small banks could have their
lobbyists write an amendment and threaten to shut down the US government if they
didn’t get it? None. Keep in mind that the big banks aren’t trying to make the
market more competitive; they just want rules that create more advantages for
themselves. The system is rigged and those who rigged it want to keep it that
way.
– From Senator Elizabeth Warren’s excellent speech: “The
Unfinished Business of Financial Reform”
Oligarchs are the
problem, but there aren’t 3.2 million of them. In case you missed it the first
time around, I discussed this in the post, Where
Does the Real Problem Reside? Two Charts Showing the 0.01% vs. the 1%. In
that piece, I highlighted the following chart, which showed how the 1% has more
or less been treading water while the wealth of the 0.01% has exploded in
recent years:

the percentage of political contributions emanating from the 0.01% of income
earners. Here is what it showed:

Who
Is Really Choosing America's Next President?. by
Robert Faturechi and Jonathan Stray via ProPublica, Submitted by Tyler
Durden on 04/27/2015. “We are anointing an aristocracy that’s getting
a stronger and stronger grip on democracy,”.
[If donors are
really Americans or care for the American nation best’s value, one third of
their donation should go to their preferred
candidate and the 2/3 to the candidates who gets 3% of the national
electorate or 35% of the local-state electorate .. otherwise our democracy will
be a real scum as typified by US scholars, and our Supreme Court a bureaucratic
institutional monster ]
Rapid Rise in Super PACs Dominated by Single Donors
Super PACS that get nearly all of their money from one donor
quadrupled their share of overall fund-raising in 2014. The wealthiest
Americans can fly on their own jets, live in gated compounds and watch movies
in their own theaters.
A growing number of political committees known as super
PACs have become instruments of single donors, according to a ProPublica
analysis of federal records. During the 2014 election cycle, $113 million –
16 percent of money raised by all super PACs – went to committees dominated by
one donor. That was quadruple their 2012 share.
The rise of single-donor groups is a new example of how
changes in campaign finance law are giving outsized influence to a handful of
funders.
The trend may continue into 2016. Last week,
National Review reported
that Texas Senator Ted Cruz’s bid for the Republican presidential nomination
would be boosted not by one anointed super PAC but four, each controlled by a single
donor or donor family.
Donors who launch their own PACs are seeking more control
over how their money is spent. And many have complained about the
commissions that fundraising
consultants take off the top of their donations to outside groups. But the
move carries risks if the patron is new to the arena.
PACs dominated by one donor could run afoul of disclosure
laws, according to Larry Noble, the former top lawyer for the Federal Election
Commission. Under the rules, political ads must include disclosures about who
funded them. Noble said election law would require groups funded by one person
to list that donor’s name, not just the name of the PAC – though he couldn’t
recall the FEC addressing such a case.
Naming the super PAC instead of the donor in the ad, Noble
said, also allows the groups to delay disclosing where their money comes from
until the next FEC filing date – potentially weeks after the ad runs.
“It defeats the purpose of
the law to allow someone to hide behind a super PAC if they are the only
funder,” Noble said.
“They want to make it more
authoritative, like there’s more support. It looks better to say the ad is from
Americans for Good Government than from John Smith… That just makes a mockery
of the law.”

Q2
GDP 'Excuse' Emerges: Up To 16,000 West Coast Port Truckers Go On Strike.
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 04/27/2015. The collapse of Q1
GDP has been placed squarely on the shoulders of weather (too hot, too cold,
and definitely not just right) and the dockworkers strike which shut 29
seaports. As Q1 GDP plunged, so Q2 was lifted hockey-stick-like to keep the
growth dream alive but so far in Q2, data has not shown the bounce expected...
so we are going to need a bigger excuse. We have found one! As
NBC Los Angeles reports, truck drivers who haul goods from the nation's
busiest port complex in Los Angeles and Long Beach went on strike Monday in
the latest action as part of a long-running labor dispute (it wasn't
immediately clear how many of the 16,000 truckers would walk off the job).

The Limits Of
Propaganda. Submitted by Tyler
Durden on 04/27/2015. As
we recently noted, the US government is in the process of launching an
all-out war on truth. Those who express views contrary to the party line out of
Washington will be labeled a threat. But Washington's propaganda isn't
working at all well in the rest of the world, be it Russia or China or
Latin America. In all of these places, Washington's message control has more or
less failed. This is why the people in Washington are in a bit of a panic, and
labeling internal dissidents as a “threat” is just them flailing in search of
an answer. They can't stop lying, and they can't even pretend to rule the
world if everyone knows that they are lying, so their only option is to try to
squelch every voice except their own. They may succeed at this within the
US (some would say they already have) but as far as the rest of the world -
good luck!

IBR, The Student Loan Bubble's Dirty Secret. Submitted by Tyler

perpetual state of default even as they avoid actual payment default and in the

the payments they aren't making appear to be classified by the Department of
Education as both "in repayment" and "current."

Ron
Paul Exposes The Real War On The Middle Class. Submitted by Tyler
Durden on 04/27/2015. One of the great ironies of American politics is that
most politicians who talk about helping the middle class support policies
that, by expanding the welfare-warfare state, are harmful to middle-class
Americans. Eliminating the welfare-warfare state would benefit middle-class
Americans by freeing them from exorbitant federal taxes, including the Federal
Reserve’s inflation tax.

The Informed
Minority. Submitted by Tyler
Durden on 04/27/2015. The cynicism among the informed classes has never
been so deep. Even the pompom boys in the cheerleading clubs like CNBC and
The Wall Street Journal express wonderment at the levitation of stock indexes
and bond values. They chatter about a “correction” of 20 percent being a
healthful tonic that would clear away some dross and quickly usher in a new
episode of “growth” — or growthiness, which, like truthiness, became an
acceptable approximation of the real thing. The truth, as opposed to
truthiness, is they no longer believe their own bullshit about growthiness. Behind
the financial jitters of the informed minority is the greater fear of social
unrest.
[ This is not the world of freedom, this is
the world of fear created by explosive inequality fostered by neoliberal policies. In this
system neither the rich nor the poor are really free .. the 1% is afraid of the
workers and poor people .. afraid that they get the arms they were trained to
use to serve their interest and used instead to serve their own .. and the poor
afraid of being unable to organize and control their unrest .. afraid of creating
another type of Libya and Syria in our land .. afraid of chaos .. when chaos
became dominant there is not freedom ..
that is the kingdom of fear .. it is that we start feeling here in our America today .. fear of being shooting by the same
institutions created to assure our security.. It stand to reason that the rich
and poor -the two extremes of this
triangle- feel fear .. what is unreasonable is that none of them do much to get
out from the current system in the proper way .. that is abandoning the neoliberal system.. all its traps..
including the fake democracy with super-packs and usual bandits .. We have the
solution: updating the FDR Glass Steagall Act .. and canceling the buying of
elections. .. Es fácil ser rico en un “paraíso”
de malandrines donde la honestidad es un crimen y el fraude y despojo una
virtud. Lo difícil es salir de eso, si ya nos hemos acostumbrado a la
indecencia del “buen vivir” a costa de la miseria de los demás. .. Es también
facil crear equipos o redes para destruir el sistema por via violenta y sin más destino que el caos. .. Este es el sentido de la expresión
“Behind the financial jitters of the informed minority is the greater fear of
social unrest.” Es tiempo de decirle NO a
la riqueza mal habida .. es tiempo de prohibir la compra de elecciones .. mas
tarde será difícil evitar que el temor se convierta en amor por la rebelión]

Greek
Municipal Union Refuses To Hand Over "Confiscated" Cash To Central
Bank . Submitted by Tyler
Durden on 04/27/2015. Earlier today, while the European markets were caught
in the latest myopic buying frenzy resulting from the hope that an imminent
termination of Yanis Varoufakis may mean a Greek debt deal is imminent, the
Central Union of Municipalities and Communities of Greece ("KEDE") held a meeting in which it said that
while it "declares it support for the national negotiating effort",
it would not transfer any funds to the Bank of Greece.
[ That is the other path to chaos
.. the case in which the dis-informed
majority is captured by desperation and lack sense of future.. thanks to
the work of specialized teams expert in creating
“color revolution”. They are trying to get the momento to capture socio-political
unrest to breed chaos and distrust on anti-troika leaders .. When this happens
not even the referendum works, it would aggravate the situation.. the only
solution is to “invade the invaders”: organize people who is clear of
anti-troika objectives and get inside “KEDE” meetings -as the chines did it in Hong Kong- while the press is controled to denounce the
opportunists and professional mercenaries from CIA-MOSAD & neo-nazis]

The
Clinton Global 'Graft' Initiative (Summarized In 1 Chart). Submitted by Tyler Durden on 04/26/2015 Via Doug Ross at DirectorBlue blog. The Clintons are a malignant tumor on
the body politic. They have a history of doing
anything for money -- including
selling out their own country -- and when it comes to their personal bank
accounts, there's apparently never enough zeroes. Hat tip: @amr033.
In 2010, when Barack
Obama said, "I
do think at a certain point you’ve made enough money," he definitely wasn't referring to the
Clintons.
Because it wasn't
enough for Bill Clinton to sell
sensitive missile technology to the Red Chinese for campaign donations. It wasn't enough for Hillary Clinton to sell
America's most valuable nuclear technologies to the Russians for "contributions" to her
family's personal piggy bank.
That piggy bank,
otherwise known as "The Clinton Global Graft Initiative", had an
interesting way of doling out the "contributions" it received. http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2015-04-26/clinton-global-graft-initiative-summarized-1-chart

Virtual Immunity Of The Well-Connected: Gen. Petraeus Edition.
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 04/26/2015. The leniency shown
former CIA Director (and retired General) David Petraeus by the Justice
Department in sparing him prison time for the serious crimes that he has
committed puts him in the same preferential, immune-from-incarceration category
as those running the financial institutions of Wall Street, where,
incidentally, Petraeus now makes millions. By contrast, “lesser” folks –
and particularly the brave men and women who disclose government crimes – get
to serve time, even decades, in jail. Behold, the virtual immunity enjoyed
by the well connected.

Russia
Deploys Tactical Drones In The Arctic, Exposes Rarely-Seen US Spy Satellite
Images. Submitted by Tyler
Durden on 04/26/2015. While the USA is busy killing US civilians and
terrorists with its drone program, Russia is set to deploy its own Orlan-10
drones in the oil- and gas-rich Arctic region (reportedly to monitor the
climate situation). As
SputnikNews reports, Colonel Aleksandr Gordeev stated "the drones'
task is to maintain impartial control of the situation in the Russian
sector of the Arctic." So, passive-agressive? However, Russia also
chose this week to release rarely-seen images of a US intelligence satellite
which as one analyst notes is provocative (but obscure in its intent
other than the growing recognition of US space-based surveillance assets).

Rising
Police Aggression A Telling Indicator Of Our Societal Decline.
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 04/26/2015. The lines have been
drawn in many police departments: it’s us vs. them. Trust in many
departments has been utterly shattered within some communities because the
police hold themselves to a different standard than they do the populace.
But the recent cases of police brutality are simply a symptom of a much
larger problem. Society in the US is breaking down, civility has been
lost, and the country is rapidly becoming uncivilized. This extends within and

Europe stands on the brink of frightful internal upheaval.
In the coming years, it has every chance of suffering the same fate as the
Ukraine, only with a great roar, great bloodshed and less chance that in the
near future things will settle down –in other words, that someone will show up
and put things in order. In fact, today the EU can choose whether to remain a
tool of the United States or to move closer to Russia. Depending on its choice,
Europe can get off with a slight scare, such as a breakup of parts of its
periphery and possible fragmentation of some countries, or it could collapse
completely. Judging by the European elites’ reluctance to break openly with the
United States, collapse is almost inevitable.
The first important conclusion about what Putin wants and
what he expects. He expects to win. And considering that he takes a meticulous approach
and strives to anticipate any surprises, you can be sure that when the decision
was made not to back down under pressure from the United States, but to respond,
the Russian leadership had a double, if not a triple, guarantee of victory.
Putin’s second desire is clear: to keep the peace or the
appearance of peace as long as possible. Peace is advantageous for Russia
because in conditions of peace, without enormous expense, it obtains the same
political result but in a much better geopolitical situation. That is why
Russia continually extends the olive branch. Just as the Kiev junta will
collapse in conditions of peace in Donbass, in conditions of world peace, the
military-industrial complex and the global financial system created by the
United States are doomed to self-destruct. In this way, Russia’s actions are
aptly described by Sun Tzu’s maxim “The greatest victory is that which requires
no battle.”

Why
Nav Sarao Had To Be Destroyed: He Found A Way To Beat The HFTs At Their Own
Game - By Tyler Durden (27/4/15) [here only few extracts]
As we first observed yesterday, the real reason Nav was
picked as a scapegoat is because he threatened to expose the "mass manipulation
of high frequency nerds." This was validated last night when Bloomberg
reported that "the sleuth who pieced together Navinder Singh Sarao’s
pattern of spoofing isn’t an FBI agent or regulator. He’s an academic whose
research has taken the view that high-frequency trading is good for markets."
Hence, Sarao is bad for the HFTs and should be "eliminated."
Today, we find precisely how and why Sarao was singled out:
he not only exposed out the parasitic trading strategies of the real culprits
behind the broken market, the massive HFT firms (such as Virtu which went
public 24 hours before the Sarao charges were filed) which gave the
"regulators" no choice: one of them had to be put away for good, but
found a way to capitalize on the algos' stupidity, and actually make money by
beating them at their own game.
As such, regulators and exchanges such as the CFTC and CME
had no choice but arrest him and prevent him from trading ever again!
