THE PRIVATIZATION OF ELECTIONS IN THE US
1ST
Hillary Pre-paid superdelegates distorted the process in her favor
2nd Closed
primaries have canceled inclusion and freedom to vote
3rd Pre
paid press is hampering enlightening info & our right to objective one
4th Prohibiting
3rd option kills pluralism & foster the trap of voting for
lesser evil among two evils -Dems and GOP- both financed by Wall Street mafias and big crook
bankers & Corp.
In Nov 4 we will see one more private actor rigging
elections: the companies that counts the votes, the owners of the electronic
system doing fraud as we’ve seen it in previous elections. We do not
have real democracy, we have a pre-paid electoral system. We have to fight for a
new system. It implies to create a new party and the PEOPLE’S front against the
fraud of the 1%.
IF WE DO NOT ACCEPT THIS FRAUDULENT SYSTEM WE HAVE THREE
OPTIONS:
1- Vote Sanders now
until the California primary & get out from the Dems party
2- Then after vote
for Democratic People’s Front either lead by Sander or other progressive leader
3- Don’t vote for
Hillary-Trump, they do not represent the Nation, they represent only the 1% of
rich people: big private interest move by greed, fraud & exclusion at
whatever human cost. IF WE ARE NOT ALLOWED TO CREATE A
3rd OPTION, WE SHOULD ABSTAIN. Abstention will be a conscious imperative and a moral duty to punish them.

Life
Is Good In The Corner Suite: Highest-Paid CEOs See Pay Jump Despite Dismal
Performance Submitted by Tyler Durden on 04/26/2016
As most Americans
have resigned themselves to the fact that merit increases are a thing of the
past, and yearly reviews will only yield a pat on the back and new goals for
the upcoming year, life is still good in the corner suite. CEOs are still
getting raises, but don't be alarmed, you'll feel that trickle down effect any
minute now.
Incidentally, the
top paid Co-CEO tandem of Mark Hurd and Safra Catz significantly under
performed the S&P, as did Fox's Rupert Murdoch and Morgan Stanley's James
Gorman.

"Cynical,
Fiction Peddlers"? Americans' Economic Confidence Tumbles To 8-Month Lows. Submitted by Tyler
Durden on 04/26/2016 : Confirming
The Conference Board's earlier disappointment, it appears the American
public is chock-full of "cynics" and "fiction-peddlers" as Gallup
reports Americans' confidence in the U.S. economy reached its lowest
weekly level so far in 2016, with 60% saying it is "getting
worse."
See large images at: http://www.zerohedge.com/sites/default/files/images/user3303/imageroot/2016/04/25/20160426_ECON.jpg AND:
35% of U.S. adults saying the economy is "getting
better" and 60% saying it is "getting worse."
This is the lowest score for this component since late
August 2015, when the stock market plummeted over concerns about the Chinese
economy.

There is so much economic despair in our country today,
but if you have a good job and if you live in a good neighborhood you might not
ever encounter it.
..
There really are “two
Americas” in 2016, and they are getting farther and farther apart with each
passing year. On the one hand, you have lots of people smiling
in New York City these days because of the stock market boom, and property
values have soared to ridiculous levels in San Francisco because of the tech
bubble. But in between the two coasts there are vast stretches of
forgotten people that the U.S. economy has left behind. In this article I am going to share some of their stories
with you.
..
We are witnessing the
slow-motion meltdown of society.
Even with the “recovery” we have supposedly experienced, 47 percent of all Americans could not
even pay an unexpected $400 emergency room bill without borrowing the money
from somewhere or selling something.

And things are not going to be getting any better for the
economy moving forward. The despair and desperation that we have seen
so far are nothing compared to what is coming.

Consumer Confidence Stagnant Since The End Of QE3 As Wage Growth Hopes Fade Submitted by Tyler Durden on 04/26/2016
..
We're gonna need more money-printing. Consumer Confidence
dropped in April to 94.2, missing expectations of 95.8 and hovering at its
lowest in 2 years. In fact, the current level is relatively unchanged
since the end of QE3, despite all the recent surges in stocks as the
post-2009 94% correlation between the S&P 500 and confidence is breaking
down rapidly and ruining The Fed's animal spirits' party. Most crucially,
income growth expectations are tumbling as The Conference Board suggests
American consumers "do not foresee any pickup in momentum."

INTRODUCTION by zerohedge

An economic and financial system premised on perpetual
growth was bound to run into trouble. What happens as population growth
turns to population decline is honestly and literally a complete and total game
changer. A flat to declining number of buyers and consumers opposite ramping
elderly sellers plus their unfunded liabilities is a problem with no happy
resolutions. Currencies (what will constitute "money"),
"free-markets", and perhaps the basis of civilization hang in the
balance of the transition from high population growth to potential outright
depopulation.
…
...
INTRODUCTION by the author Chris Hamilton:
..
Strangely, the world is suffering from two seemingly
opposite trends...overpopulation and depopulation in concert. The
overpopulation is due to the increased longevity of elderly lifespans vs.
depopulation of young populations due to collapsing birthrates. The
depopulation is among most under 25yr old populations (except Africa) and
among many under 45yr old populations.
So, the old are living decades longer than a generation
ago but their adult children are having far fewer children. The
economics of this is a complete game changer and is unlike any time previously
in the history of mankind. None of the models ever accounted for a
shrinking young population absent income, savings, or job opportunity vs.
massive growth in the old with a vast majority reliant on government programs
in their generally underfunded retirements (apart from a minority of retirees
who are wildly "overfunded"). There are literally hundreds of
reasons for the longer lifespans and lower birthrates...but that's for another
day. This
is simply a look at what is and what is likely to be absent a goal-seeked happy
ending.
In a short yet economically valid manner, every person
is a unit of consumption. The greater the number of people and the
greater the purchasing power, the greater the growth in consumption. So,
if one wanted to gauge economic growth, (growth in consumption
driving economic growth), multiply the annual change in population by
purchasing power (wages, savings) per capita. Regarding wage growth, I
hold wages flat as from a consumption standpoint, wage growth is basically
offset by inflation. Of course, there is another lever beyond this which
central banks are feverishly torqueing; substituting the lower interest
rates of ZIRP and NIRP to boost consumption from a flagging base
of population growth. (There is one more boost to consumption, huge
increases in social transfer payments primarily among the advanced
economies...but while noted, these are a story for another day.)

..
SEE THERE IMAGE 8 the
most important one (a short image is below). It is about the US : US 20-59
y/old. Annual Pop Growth in Millions vs. FFR(%) and Total US Debt ($’s)
Conclusion:
An economic and financial system premised on perpetual
growth was bound to run into trouble (what do you do when you have taken a wrong turn?...apparently
just keep going!). The inevitable deceleration
of population growth was the trigger that turned central bankers into
pushers offering ever cheaper credit. The lower rates drove unsustainable rates
of consumption absent even further rate cuts and likewise
drove overcapacity which likewise needed even lower rates. But negative rates of NIRP are simply no longer under the
heading of capitalism (a market that doesn't value capital likely
isn't capitalism?!?). When we've clearly changed "ism's"...we've crossed the Rubicon.
What happens as population growth turns to population decline is honestly and literally a complete and total game changer. A flat to declining number of buyers and consumers opposite ramping elderly sellers plus their unfunded liabilities is a problem with no happy resolutions. Currencies (what will constitute "money"), "free-markets", and perhaps the basis of civilization hang in the balance of the transition from high population growth to potential outright depopulation.
I believe this is the correct lens through which to view and understand why growth is perpetually weakening, why commodity overcapacity and slowing demand will only accelerate, why the Treasury market continues to see "buying" despite the near total absence of buyers (Treasury Mystery), why equities are a "buy" (but for all the wrong reasons), and why precious metal valuations are so extremely suspect in the face of a monetary onslaught.

Oil
Crash Creates Glut Of Petroleum Engineers - More Layoffs Coming. S- by Tyler Durden on 04/26/2016
For many students who went to school and took on student
loans under the expectation of getting a six figure petroleum engineering job,
a rude awakening is likely ahead. Petroleum engineering became a much more
attractive field thanks to the shale boom, which meant that these engineers
were no longer likely to have to take a job abroad or on an offshore platform.
If shale is dead or partially dead, that changes the calculus for many
petroleum engineers. To employ a meaningful number of the current stock of
engineers, oil prices would likely have to get back to around $70 a barrel
which would make shale at least reasonably profitable in many geographies.

CLINTON VICTORY IS JUST
ILLUSION.. FALSE IMAGE
Submitted by Tyler
Durden on 04/26/2016
: For the past few
months, we have been shown the massive crowds of millennials flooding Bernie
Sanders rallies, and the dyed in the wool democrats who have been flocking to
Hillary's. The narrative has been that the Democrats have really generated
some enthusiasm this year that hasn't been seen in the past. As is often
the case, however, propaganda is much different than reality.
Voter turnout for the
Democrats this year has declined by a staggering 4.5 million voters, or 19%,
compared to when Barack Obama was first taking the country by storm.
As Breitbart explains:
“The steep drop off is so significant on the Democratic side that the vast
majority of states saw drops in voter participation in Democratic primaries and
caucuses. The following contests saw less voters
participate on the Democratic side in the primaries and caucuses than 2008’s
contests: Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Massachusetts,
Mississippi, Missouri, New Hampshire, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma,
South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, Utah, Wisconsin, Vermont, American
Samoa, Hawaii, Iowa, Minnesota, Nebraska, Nevada, Washington state, and
Wyoming.”
The
state by state comparison shows the drastic reduction in turnout: but
This
news may actually bode well for a potential Donald Trump candidacy, as he does
seem to be able to pull people into the process that have sat out in the past.
If Hillary can't do it in her own primary, there's a good chance she won't be
able to do it if running against Trump in the fall.

The Separation Of Bathroom & State. Submitted by Tyler Durden on 04/25/2016
At the national level leftists are accusing North Carolina
of bigotry while, in the name of tolerance, a growing list of performers and
businesses are boycotting the state. Unfortunately, what has gotten lost in all
the rhetoric surrounding this issue is the truth about both the original
Charlotte law and the state’s response to it. If property rights and
economic freedom are the values that are upheld, then religious freedom will
