JAN 30 17 SIT EC y POL
DANGEROUS TIME ahead: the readiness for ww3 (see Sputnik below) is the road to fascism and mass incarceration. To
avoid it, people must org brigades for PEACE to
take streets. There won’t be lasting Peace without Rev
against the oligarchy world-wide .. All the beneficiaries of neoliberalism
& its wars must be affected. This implies to create brigades &
associations for self-manage of own enterprises, Coop. This Rev may imply expropriation
of big Corp and WS speculators and those who manipulate current system to feed their
greed. The
objective is to create a new system of small entrepreneurs that goes beyond neo-liberal
wars and to create instead a system that serves the whole nation. It is either the barbaric destruction of the whole humanity
with WW3 OR people’s REV against them.

"Most Shorted" stocks
are crashing today - down the most since Brexit. Total Short Interest
has collapsed from its highest since 2008 (at the March 2016 lows) to the
lowest in three years now... The question is - is there any short-squeeze ammunition left?

You want to fix the economic system, reduce
political bribery and reduce rising income inequality? Shut off the cheap unlimited credit spigot to banks, financiers and
corporations.
…
Here's an example of the perverse incentives and
unintended consequences this unlimited credit unleashes in the real economy. Let's say I'm a financier who is close to
the credit spigot. I borrow $100 million at 1.25% (or sell $100 million in
bonds yielding 1.25%) to buy a company that yields 4.25% in after-tax profits.

Following leaks this morning that the
Trump administration is considering executive orders around the H1-B worker via
program, tech stocks are tumbling with the Nasdaq down most since September...

"I used the phrase “irrational stubbornness” to
describe the market’s determination to buy the dollar in the face of both
contrary newsflow and price action. Stubbornness is not a trait that’s closely correlated with profits in
markets."

In his Inaugural Address, having nominated the wealthiest cabinet in American history, he proclaimed, “For too long, a small group in our nation's capital has
reaped the rewards of government.” Under
Trump, an even smaller group will flourish -- in particular, a cadre of former
Goldman Sachs executives. To put the matter bluntly, two of them (along with the
Federal Reserve) are likely to control our economy and financial
system in the years to come.

"President Trump looks to do
things that will be favorable for business, which would improve employment and
growth if successful. However,
protesters are all over the place, so I tend to think that will cause trouble

One day after 16 democratic attorneys general
across the United States condemned
President Trump's order to restrict people from
seven Muslim-majority countries from entering the country, on Monday one
of them - the Attorney General of Washington state - said he is filing a
lawsuit against President Donald Trump over his immigration executive
order.

The reason for the simmering cold war between tech CEOs and Trump can
be summarized in just three letters: H1-B. According to Bloomberg, Trump's
administration has drafted an executive order aimed at overhauling the
work-visa program which will truly unleash tech CEO fury.

On Monday afternoon President Donald Trump
amended the Saturday memo which established a National Security Council which
originally did not list the CIA director as a "regular attendee" of
NSC meetings (it did, however, elevate Steve Bannon to that position), and
announced that the administration has decided to add the director of the CIA
back to the National Security Council.

While President Trump is right to focus on the issue, there are several

Russia
is quietly engaging in the biggest military build-up in the Arctic since the
1991 Soviet fall and will, in some areas, give Moscow more military

overseas."

In the 1940s, George Orwell wrote “during times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes
a revolutionary act.” This is our precise position today... "Marie
Krarup, a member of the Danish Parliament contacted me to say that an EU task force has placed me on a list branding me as a
pro-Russian propagandist (accusing me
of spreading Russian disinformation)."

The IMF
has once again threatened to pull out of the Troika following a
warning that Eurogroup loan measures are not enough for Greek debt. This is one
of those WTF moments where statements from Greece, from the IMF, and also the
Eurozone make no apparent sense.

WASHINGTON BLOG
Cheap credit–newly issued money
that can be borrowed at low rates of interest–is presented as the savior of our
economic system, but in reality, it’s why our system is broken. The
conventional economic pitch goes like this: cheap credit enables consumers to
buy more goods and services (and since the system needs growth or it implodes,
that’s good).
Cheap credit also enables companies to invest in new
productive assets (capital).
Last but not least, low rates of interest enables the
government at all levels to borrow money at relatively low cost.
That all sounds good in theory,
but let’s see how cheap credit works in the real world.
The first thing we observe is those
closest to the central bank credit spigot get the lowest rates and nearly
unlimited lines of credit. J.Q.
Citizen may be thrilled to get a 4% annual-rate mortgage, but the
mega-millionaire closer to the credit spigot can borrow 10 times as much as
J.Q. can, and at half the rate of interest.
Mega-corporations and financiers can borrow billions at
rates as low as 1%, which given an official inflation rate of 2%, is actually a
negative rate of real interest.
Money-center banks own the credit spigot, so they can create
money out of thin air at .5%.
