Obama's "Deeply Disappointed" Half-Brother Will Vote Trump Because "He Speaks From The Heart"

He says he started the charity in 2008 because he wanted to make a difference in the family’s hardscrabble village in Kenya.

But the charity came under fire when The Post revealed in 2011 that it was an off-the-books operation that hadn’t registered with the state of Virginia or, as it claimed, had tax-exempt status from the IRS.

Shortly after The Post report, the IRS gave its stamp of approval, leading to speculation that the president had intervened.

Democrats Accuse Russia Of Hacking DNC Server To Help Donald Trump

The lies on top of lies covering up the fact that Hillary Clinton's emails being hacked isn't even being covered up anymore, as the corruption is so obvious now.   So obvious that campaign officials aren't even trying to cover it up.  They're redirecting it to Trump along false premises.  It would be comical, but it's tragic that so many millions are still so willfully blind.

This is by no means an endorsement for Trump, as his character flaws are fairly evident as well.  This country deserves Clinton because a cleansing reset will happen sooner than later under her watch. Let's just get it over with and clean house in Washington.  And it's got nothing to do with an election.  The 2016 election is just another mindless and futile exercise in sovereignty.  The real test is whether there will be a 2020 election.  Because the pitchforks will be out by then.

End Of An Era: The Rise And Fall Of The Petrodollar System

This is a long, but good read on oil, gold, petrodollar, geopolitics, and currency shifts.   However, it doesn't address the inevitable effects and undesirable conclusion.  The USDollar losing its status as the global reserve currency results in loss of purchasing power for American consumers and hyperinflation.

Prominent Gold Skeptic Willem Buiter Says "Gold Looks Pretty Good"

Buiter, like Greenspan, is a punk.  After bashing gold 2 years ago, he now articulates its monetary value.  Both he and Greenspan are flip flopping, although Buiter is insufferable.  Even though he is now right, he's still wrong on some of the reasons for why he is bullish on gold.  At least Greenspan is somewhat predictable, understanding the value of gold before and after holding his position as Fed Chairman.  It was during his tenure as Fed Chair that Greenspan was predictably sour on gold.

With Buiter, he's acknowledging his ignorance for gold, and yet this clown is paid millions to be Citi's Chief Economist?  Here's a thought:  if this incredulous gold skeptic is now reversing his opinion, perhaps this foretells the next big leg up in gold and silver.  Are the financial elite panicking and ready to throw in the towel?

Fed Cornered: Core CPI Jumps Near 4 Year Highs As Rent Rises At Fastest Rate In 9 Years

As predicted, the Fed is cornered.  In a "Be careful what you wish for" scenario--the Fed has been desperately clamoring for higher inflation, as disinflation is mistakenly articulated as deflation, a softer term for depression, which is an existential threat to the financial authorities.  According to pundits, inflation equals GDP growth, which means the bureaucrats get to keep their jobs.

However, to the average consumer, higher prices equates to lower purchasing power.  Perhaps the computer industry best illustrates how lower prices--not higher prices, catalyze booming economies.  On the other hand, higher costs lead to lower profits, layoffs, and store closures.  See the big box retailers as counterexamples of booming economies.

Now that inflation is on the rise, the Fed now has to scramble because fighting inflation requires raising interest rates.  But due to exploding debt (at the government, consumer, and corporate levels), raising interest rates would bankrupt not just America, but globally, thereby crashing financial markets and destroying wealth.  This is the financial cul-de-sac which sound money advocates have been warning against.  Reckless creation of fiat currency and credit markets does result in tears.

Expect more financial crises and social unrest, as billions struggle to make ends meet.

Forget The Pullback And Look At These Stunning Price Targets For Gold & Silver

The article links to a great resource, the shadowstats.com Inflation Calculator, which provides pricing information based on official and unofficial inflation data, a so-called price deflator.

The input on the official price of gold is slightly variant (but the correct messaging is spot on), as the author inputs an official  price of $20.79 in May 1913 (the same year the Fed was created, not so coincidentally).  The actual official price of gold back then was $20.67, while the average price of gold based on the London Fix was $20.64, according to kitco.com <click here>.

The input on the official price of silver also differs, according to whether one uses the official price or average price for 1913.  The unofficial price of silver based on the London fix was $0.58, according to kitco.com <click here>.  The author uses an official price of $1.29, which may be accurate (there is very little data on the "official" price of silver, which presumably was set by the US Treasury).

Bottom-line:  the article points to the Inflation Calculator which indicates how much the USDollar has been debased by perpetual currency and credit creation from the Fed and US Treasury, as reflected in the prices of gold and silver.

Interestingly enough, the Minnesota Fed provides a similar calculator, named "What's a Dollar Worth?" on their website, based on official CPI data <click here>.
