America
Crosses The Tipping Point: The Middle Class Is Now A Minority. Americans
have long lived in a nation made up primarily of middle-class families, neither
rich nor poor, but comfortable enough, notes NPR's Marilyn Geewax, but this
year - for the first time in US history, that changed. A new analysis of government data shows that as
of 2015, middle-income households have become the minority, extending a
multi-decade decline that confirms the hollowing out of society as 49% of all Americans now live in a home that receives money
from the government each month. Sadly, the trends that are destroying the
middle class in America just continue to accelerate.

Rand
Paul unleashes "TOP TEN THINGS THAT MAKE OBAMA UNQUALIFIED" For
Office. by Mac Slavo via
SHTFPlan.com. Submitted by Tyler Durden
on 12/10/2015.
[ It was corrected the original title.. it contained a nasty
mix of rose with onion..my readers won’t accept such a bad cook-recipe.]
1. “Tried to take over 1/6 of the
economy in Obamacare, wrecked the system and hurt patients and taxpayers.”
2. “Thinks an executive order is legislation and how you
make law.”
3. “Fought an undeclared,
unconstitutional war in Libya, turned it into Jihadist wonderland.”
4. “Fighting an undeclared, unconstitutional war in
Syria, [and] trying to put ISIS in Damascus.”
5. “Signed into law the
indefinite detention of American citizens.”
6. “His copy of the bill of rights obviously goes from 1
to 3, skipping the 2nd amendment.”
7. [A federal appeals] Court
ruled his NSA spying on every American was illegal.”
8. “He has added more debt than anyone in history.”
9. “Appointed an attorney general
who thinks speech against Muslims is a bigger threat than terrorism.”
10. “[Environmental Protection Agency] rules by executive
FIAT trying to kill an entire American industry and way of life (coal).”
[In addition..]
·
Not sure
how
Rand interprets the first amendment, but it’s pretty obvious that the
administration that has punished more whistleblowers
than any other, and allowed the NSA, intelligence community and private
business to spy on and censor anyone it wishes, [he] has no respect for the 1st Amendment or 4th Amendment
either. Due process and whole back of the original ten amendments
has definitely eroded to point where the ink is no longer legible.
·
Benghazi/Gaddafi, Fast and Furious and the use of drones all belong on this list as well, but
it is only 10 and a good start. ISIS and the covert
support of terrorism is its own giant issue that should be a nationwide
scandal, with impeachments, prosecutions and a gutting of the entire staff of
every major office in Washington, D.C. But it will never happen.
·
Obama’s role in the
bankers bailout and the failure to prosecute Wall Street executives, or end
legalized derivatives are all crimes that will also escape any notion of
justice, even if the criminals strike again.

---- Jeremy Grantham Urges "Easily Manipulated" Americans To "Become More Realistic" About World's Demise. Submitted by Tyler Durden on 12/10/2015.
Can we handle the truth? “Americans have a
broad and heavy bias away from unpleasant data. We are ready to be
manipulated by vested interests in finance, economics, and climate change,
whose interests might be better served by our believing optimistic stuff
"that just ain’t so." We are dealing today with important issues, one
so important that it may affect the long-term viability of our global society
and perhaps our species. It may well be necessary to our survival that we
become more realistic, more willing to process the unpleasant, and, above all,
less easily manipulated through our need for good news.” www.zerohedge
[ Nos crearon una visión
optimista de la realidad con fasos datos .. la intención fue manipular nuestra
conciencia y nuestra voluntad.. nos acomodaron a la espera de buenas noticias

diario nuestro optimismo .. eso nos hundió en el miedo .. lo que estalla en más violencia callejera ..

THE
DEATH-SPIRAL OF AMERICAN ENTREPRENEURISM. by Charles Hugh-Smith of OfTwoMinds blog,
S- by Tyler Durden on 12/10/15
“And if American Entrepreneurism is in a death spiral,
then so too is the U.S. economy and the state that lives off the surplus
generated by American Entrepreneurism.” www.zerohedge
Here
some extracts:
Two recent articles describe the trend: American Entrepreneurship Is Actually Vanishing. Here's Why
(Inc); and American Entrepreneurship: Dead or Alive? (Gallup)
..
This is very sensible, as self-employment is the ground
floor of entrepreneurship. If your one-person business takes off, then you
hire employees and scale up from there.
Alas, the feedstock of small business--self-employment--has
been in structural decline for decades. I've covered self-employment in depth
for years: Endangered Species: The Self-Employed Middle Class; The Decline of Self-Employment and Small Business (April
22, 2013); Financial Independence via Self-Employment: How Do We Do It?
(September 23, 2015)
The chart of self-employment is unambiguous:
The Gallup article and chart are also unambiguous:
Entrepreneurship is in structural decline, and the health of the economy and
the state that depends on tax revenues is at stake: OPEN
art title
Here is a chart of the number of new enterprises and
those that have closed: much is being made of that tiny uptick in new
businesses; now that the birth of new enterprises exceeds the death of existing
enterprises by a wafer-thin margin, victory is being declared:
While the financial media focuses on the handful of
multi-billion dollar success stories, in the trenches of the U.S. economy the
story is quite different: American Entrepreneurism is in a death spiral. On
a per capita (per person) basis, American Entrepreneurism is in a free-fall.
..
..
And if American Entrepreneurism is in a death spiral,
then so too is the U.S. economy and the state that lives off the surplus
generated by American Entrepreneurism.

It appears that after
showing some signs of 'stability' to appease The IMF's political decision, and
following the weak trade data this week, China has decided to escalate the
currency wars, perhaps in anticipation of (or in an attempt to stall) any
market turbulence when The Fed hikes rates next week and withdraws
up to $800bn in liquidity from global markets.

The
Global Economic Reset Has Begun.
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 12/09/2015
The U.S. is now experiencing the next stage of the great
reset. Two pillars were put in place on top of an already existing pillar
by the central banks in order to maintain a semblance of stability after the
2008 crash. This faux stability appears to have been necessary in order
to allow time for the conditioning of the masses towards greater acceptance
of globalist initiatives, to ensure the debt slavery of future generations
through the taxation of government generated long term debts, and to allow for
internationalists to safely position their own assets. The three
pillars are now being systematically removed by the same central bankers. Why?
They are simply ready to carry on with the next stage of the controlled
demolition of the American structure as we know it.

In
Lehman Rerun, Banks Are Buying Protection Against Their Own Systemic Demise
Again. Submitted by Tyler
Durden on 12/09/2015
At the peak of the craziness of the last cycle, banks
took to protecting themselves by buying (credit) protection on other banks as a
'hedge' for systemic risk (which instead exacerbated contagion concerns and
was never going to payoff anyway given the systemic - counterparty - collapse
required to trigger it). Fast forward 8 years and it appears once again, as
Bloomberg reports, that banks are buying (equity) protection in order
to hedge the stress-test downside scenarios enforced by The Fed.

POLITICAL PANORAMA. DAY 09, Dic-15
DOES
FEAR LEAD TO FASCISM?. By John
Whitehead via The Rutherford Institute, S- by Tyler
Durden on 12/09/15
..
We are at a critical crossroads in American history, and we
have a choice: freedom or fascism. Let’s hope the American
people make the right choice while we still have the freedom to choose.
…
Everywhere you turn, those on both the left- and
right-wing are fomenting distrust and division. You can’t escape it.
..
We’re being fed a constant diet of fear: fear of terrorists,
fear of illegal immigrants, fear of people who are too religious, fear of
people who are not religious enough, fear of Muslims, fear of extremists, fear
of the government, fear of those who fear the government. The list goes on and
on.
..
The strategy is simple yet effective: the best way to
control a populace is through fear and discord.
Fear makes people stupid.
..
Confound them, distract them with mindless news
chatter and entertainment, pit them against one another by turning minor
disagreements into major skirmishes, and tie them up in knots over matters
lacking in national significance.
..
As history makes clear, fear leads to fascistic,
totalitarian regimes.
..
In other words, when we are consumed
by fear, we stop thinking.
..
A populace that stops thinking for themselves is a
populace that is easily led, easily manipulated and easily controlled.
..
As I document in my book Battlefield
America: The War on the American People, the following are a few of
the necessary
ingredients for a fascist state:
- The government is managed by a powerful leader (even if he or she assumes office by way of the electoral process). This is the fascistic leadership principle (or father figure).
- The government assumes it is not restrained in its power. This is authoritarianism, which eventually evolves into totalitarianism.
- The government ostensibly operates under a capitalist system while being undergirded by an immense bureaucracy.
- The government through its politicians emits powerful and continuing expressions of nationalism.
- The government has an obsession with national security while constantly invoking terrifying internal and external enemies.
- The government establishes a domestic and invasive surveillance system and develops a paramilitary force that is not answerable to the citizenry.
- The government and its various agencies (federal, state, and local) develop an obsession with crime and punishment. This is overcriminalization.
- The government becomes increasingly centralized while aligning closely with corporate powers to control all aspects of the country’s social, economic, military, and governmental structures.
- The government uses militarism as a center point of its economic and taxing structure.
- The government is increasingly imperialistic in order to maintain the military-industrial corporate forces.
The parallels to modern America are impossible to ignore.
..
..
Not only does fear grease the wheels of the transition
to fascism by cultivating fearful, controlled, pacified, cowed citizens, but it
also embeds itself in our very DNA so that we pass on our fear and compliance
to our offspring.
..
It’s called epigenetic inheritance, the transmission
through DNA of traumatic experiences.
For example, neuroscientists observed how quickly fear can
travel through generations of mice DNA.
The conclusion? “A newborn mouse pup, seemingly innocent to
the workings of the world, may actually harbor generations’
worth of information passed down by its ancestors.”
..
In other words, fear, trauma and compliance can be passed
down through the generations.
In the words of psychologist Erich Fromm:
Can human nature be changed in such
a way that man will forget his longing for freedom, for dignity, for integrity,
for love—that is to say, can man forget he is human? Or does human nature have
a dynamism which will react to the violation of these basic human needs by
attempting to change an inhuman society into a human one?
..
We are at a critical crossroads in American history,
and we have a choice: freedom or fascism.
Let’s hope the American people make the right choice
while we still have the freedom to choose.
..
