Since this SHITBAG said this, there has been an effort to spin what he said as something other than what it was. Watch and judge for yourself:

12. I often wonder the same. It seemed we were moving toward a more
sensitive, less rude and very intelligent nation and then it all went out the window. It seemed the nation was above a lot of the crap that goes on now. Today for many being crass, rude and stupid is a medal of honor.

5. Prehaps he keel over tomorrow when Japan starts dumping US Treasuries
The dollar is going to get banged royally as Japan starts pulling money out of the market to use for rebuilding/stabilizing Japan. It will hurt us all, but I hope the pricks on Wall Street get hurt the worst.

24. Well what ELSE would a capitalist do or say?
Profit is the ONLY goal of the system. He's just bringing it out into the open. Did you think that ANYTHING other than profit motivates ANY capitalist?

Edited on Sun Mar-13-11 10:12 PM by truedelphi
Earthquake feature on Fukushima province was because China has been making overtures to Japan recently.

It is being theorized by alternate economic thinkers that the Powers that Be decided that China was likely to dump the US Dollar in favor of the Japanese Yen.

Now that the entire country of Japan is being torn apart, especially by the nuclear "mishaps" it is unlikely the Chinese will turn away from our dollar.

All Hail the Powers That Be! All Hail!

17. What most Americans do not realize --
Edited on Sun Mar-13-11 10:37 PM by truedelphi
Back in 2006, the Bush Administration sent in American officials to "re-vitalize" the Japanese economy with the use of --

You guessed it! Nuclear power.

The mayor of Fukushima, Mr Sato, he was dead set against having nuclear power. He wanted the nuclear power plants to be decommissioned. He wanted the entire prefecture to go into alternate energy production, with a wind/solar combination. (Fukusima has enough wind energy, being so close to the sea, that it would have worked out quite well.)

Instead of his getting his way (which by the way was supported by his citizenry) some trumped up charges of his accepting bribes came into play.

He was ousted from his office, and a different man, who was very pro-nuclear energy, was installed in his place.

The nuclear industry went full steam ahead. And of course, the charges against Mr Sato were proven erroneous, but the whole purpose was simply to get him out of the way.

This would not have happened if the trumped up charges had not been given enough power by the larger government authorities, to take Mr Sato down.

Also the current prime minister of Japan has had approval numbers below 20 percent.

An agreement, very similar to the NAFTA treaty we let Clinton sign in early nineties, is sitting on his desk.

There was supposed to be an election, with the parliament either to step down or be voted out of office. We are talking about this supposed to be happening over the next ten days.

Instead, now that Japan is faced with this overwhelming crisis, nothing will happen politically to the prime minister for at least one year. No elections for at least one year. With the NAFTA style agreement to be signed by end of June at the latest, and the prime minister being given a full "Mayor Giuliani" treatment of handling this crisis so heroically.

And so the Prime Minister will be able to see to it that the Pacific Rim/NAFTA style trade agreement goes forward. This will allow US companies come in and buy up whatever they want from Japan, including US control over transportation, over water and energy.

I personally cannot say if the earth simply did its natural thing and this earthquake happened, or if the HAARP installation went into full power. How the heck would I know?
(However, HAARP readings, available on their own website indicate that there has been a lot of activity above and beyond what usually happens with HAARP, since around March 7th.)

But whether this tragedy was the earth's natural process, or the will of the Powers that Be (and our secret government), the fact is, We Common People don't get a say in it one way or another. And the other fact is - it is a tragic event that has benefited the Global Elite by keeping the Japanese status quo in power.

21. Do you understand a single thing about economics?Japan debt to GDP ratio is the highest in the world
Edited on Mon Mar-14-11 08:21 AM by stockholmer
The Chinese are bailing out of the US dollar for the exact same reason (and the fact that the Fed keeps debasing it through QE 1, QE 2, and soon QE 3).
The LAST place they will park assets for any extended length of time is in the yen.

Also, the Japanese are the 3rd biggest holder of US treasuries. they will now be forced to sell a huge portion to finance the massive rebuild. This will further fuck the US, as the Fed will have to monetize hundreds of billions in treasury auctions by buying it itself. They have already been doing this (over $3 trillion US so far, since 2008, because the rats are leaving the sinking dollar ship).


Here is a chart to start your education in dollar dive school (40% drop versus rest of world basket of currencies since 2002)

22. Thank you for providing real information
i will check out what you are linking to.

Thanks for being one person among the masses that doesn't feel the need to attack, blindside or otherwise put me in the dilemma of not knowing if I am wrong, or if I am, where my mistakes lie.

Much appreciated.

25. One of my favorite Lenin quotes.........
Mostly because it's SO VERY TRUE. That's why the capitalist system cannot be saved. They can't even save THEMSELVES.

19. These cheerleders for the Power Elite have already
Enocuraged the outsourcing of our jobs, promoted first the dot com bubble and then the housing bubble, both of which went belly up.

A healthy and prosperous society doesn't interest them in the least.

And what a few tens of thousands of ded bodies. As long as their tax rate remains low, they just don't care.
