Central point of debate. THE COLLAPSE of US ECON created by Yellen, Obama, Krugman & Citybank. Check images of current economic  collapse in: http://www.zerohedge.com/sites/default/files/images/user3303/imageroot/2016/04/11/20160411_obo_0.jpg This graphic info was presented in the article: Day After Obama Meeting, Yellen Confirms Fed "Focused On Main Street. Helping All Americans"
...

The fact is that FDIC head Sheila Bair had come out in her memoirs that she wrote when she left, she said how she tried to close down Citibank because this was the crux of the junk mortgage boom. She wanted to close it down and she was opposed by the Obama Administration.

Sanders has accused Wall Street and other wealthy people of mind-control over the political process. The same thing has happened in academia. They’ve bought control or they’ve subsidized economists who really push the Wall Street line. And Krugman right down the line supports the banks, supports Wall Street. He’s to the right of Sheila Bair and other progressive Republicans who did try to stop what was happening. We’re advocating exactly what Bernie Sanders is advocating today; to break up the big banks and to treat them as what THEY ARE: ENGAGING IN MASSIVE FRAUD.

HUDSON: Sanders’s position is the normal position among people who know banking and who see the need to reform. Krugman’s taking an extreme pro bank position that is even to the right to progressive Republicans in the attacks that he gives. The attacks basically are not warranted.

Here is one.
Total business sales fell again in February, the Commerce Department reported today. They include sales by manufacturers, retailers, and wholesalers of all sizes across the US economy. This measure is far broader than the aggregate sales by publicly traded companies, which too have been falling.

As many traders are terrified that the next round of layoffs will cost them their job, it's not all doom and gloom especially when one recalls that, on average, most traders are paid far better than 99% of all other jobs. And some are certainly more equal than others. Below we present a breakdown of the highest paying trading jobs, based on an analysis from Emolument, which has examined London traders' salary and bonus data at Director level to provide a glimpse into their remuneration profiles.

Any honest person working with such models know their gross limitations and how awful their track-records are. Still, these are the tools guiding the world’s central planners when they micromanage economies, be it fiscal or monetary expansion. They are obviously completely clueless, but still act with an extravagant level of hubris simply because they believe the scripture and their models.
IMF now expect world growth to be 3.2 per cent in 2016, down from 3.6 per cent by their October outlook.

America's Imperial Overstretch. Submitted by Tyler Durden on 04/15/2016

Since the end of the Cold War in 1991, this country has been steadily bled and slowly bankrupted. We are now as overextended as was the British Empire in the 1940s. Time for a reappraisal of all of the war guarantees this nation has issued since the beginning of the Cold War, to determine which, if any, still serve U.S. national interests in 2016. Alliances, after all, are the transmission belts of war. This is not isolationism. It is putting our country first, and staying out of other people’s wars. It used to be called patriotism.

How is it that so many smart people came to believe things that aren’t true? Krugman, Stiglitz, Friedman, Summers, Bernanke, Yellen – all seem to have a simpleton’s view of how the world works. They believe they can manipulate the future and make it better. Not just for themselves… but also for everyone else. Where did such a silly idea come from?

"Americans are confronted with presidential candidates using the economy as one of their talking points, mixed signals from national economic reports, volatility in the stock market and an apparent end of sub-$2 gas prices nationally -- all of which may be affecting their economic assessments."

The disconnect in sentiment between everyday people and financial pundits must just be the result of a communications issue.

Following Monday's decision by a special committee to commence the impeachment process against president Dilma Rousseff, all attention had been focused on the number of Congressional votes that the pro-impeachment movement would have ahead  Sunday's critical vote. As a reminder, impeachment would require two-thirds support, or 342 of the 513 lower-house lawmakers, to send the case to the Senate. Then, moments ago, Brazil's Folha newspaper reported that this critical 342 threshold had been met.

WASHINGTON BLOG


Hillary wants us to ignore the dream of MLK and judge her not by the content of her character, but by her gender.  These are some of the reasons why:
In the 1990s, with Hillary Clinton as First Lady and “partner in power” of Bill Clinton, the US supported the efforts of oil company Unocal to cooperate with the Taliban to build a natural gas pipeline through Afghanistan. Meetings were being held for that purpose up to September 11, 2001.
Unocal also equipped the Taliban with advanced technologies, such as satellite phones.
“…Unocal –– had very close relations with the Taliban. “[W]hen a Clinton official was reminded that the Taliban persecuted women, he said, “We can live with that.”

The following comes from highly respected author Jim Quinn
The Ivy League educated “expert” economists expected March retail sales to increase by 0.1%. They only missed by $6 billion, as retail sales FELL by 0.3%. They have fallen for three straight months. At least gasoline sales were strong, as prices have risen 22% since mid-February. That should do wonders for the finances of American households. If you exclude gasoline sales, retail sales fell by 0.4%. As the chart below reveals, the year over year change in retail sales has been at or near recessionary levels for most of 2015, and into 2016.

Asher Edelman just penned a powerful endorsement of Bernie Sanders in the The Guardian titled, I’m the real-life Gordon Gekko and I support Bernie Sanders.
..
Now here’s some of what he wrote regarding the state of the U.S. economy and the 2016 presidential election:
..
Banking is the least understood, and possibly most lethal, of all the myriad issues at stake in this election. No candidate other than Bernie Sanders is capable of taking the steps necessary to protect the American people from a repeat of the recent debacle that plunged the nation into a recession from which we have not recovered.
