Indian Gold Problem
http://www.zerohedge.com

The Indian government hopes to contain gold imports well below the 845 tones that were shipped last year.     Of course, their attempt to crush popular demand for gold merely resulted in soaring and increasingly more ingenious attempts to smuggle gold into the country.     Because this smuggling is not generating revenue for the government, they plan to relax the strict rules.

The Chinese real estate market is crumbling as housing starts have dropped 15%.     This was not at all unexpected after Chinese credit expanded from 9 trillion dollars in 2008 to 25 trillion dollars as of this month.      So, if China is the so-called “economic engine” of a fictional global recovery, imagine what will happen when the Chinese “bubble” pops.

Russian Gold Reserves
http://www.goldcore.com

Russia bought 900,000 ounces of gold in April as they continued to offload U.S. Treasuries.      Gold as a percentage of the overall Russian reserves is about 10% as they now have 34.4 million ounces.

Fake Vaccination Programs
http://www.zerohedge.com

The CIA organized a fake vaccination program in Pakistan several years ago in order to get Osama bin Laden’s family DNA.     Naturally, many Pakistanis were none too pleased about the CIA’s idiocy.     Now, the entire world may never trust any vaccine program that has any U.S. connections.    Sounds like a good thing to me.

News Is What You Think It Is
http://dailycaller.com

CNN President, Jeff Sucker err…  Zucker, said that they are not going to cover Benghazi.     Is it any wonder why CNN has sinking viewer ratings?  If CNN went off the air, would anyone seriously miss them?

Tax Grounding
http://www.nestmann.com

Newly authorized IRS access to Customs and Border Patrol databases will prevent those, whom the IRS tags with a click of a mouse, from leaving or re-entering the country.     In addition, if a proposed law takes effect, the IRS will be able to revoke passports of U.S. citizens under certain circumstances without any formal charges.

Negative Tax Rates?
http://weissratings.com

The largest Life and Annuity insurers made billions in 2013, but paid no U.S. tax on that income.    The effective tax rate of the largest 25 insurers, by asset size, was negative 8.4%.    With 21.6 billion dollars in net income, the negative effective tax rate for the top insurers equates to tax free income.

Finally, please prepare now for the escalating economic and social unrest.     Good Day!

For many years, political and business hacks have been lampooning gold and silver enthusiasts.    They have even labeled them as ‘bugs’ – meaning something to be stepped on.       With that said, history has repeatedly shown that those who have physical gold and silver have ultimately smashed those who have held paper like bugs because ultimately, all fiat currencies go to their intrinsic value of zero.

Your Call is Important To Us.
http://www.zerohedge.com

Whether it is a billing error or if a serious medical emergency has occurred, when a person phones a hospital, it is nearly impossible, with automated message systems, to through to a real person.   One would think it would be easier today where people are strapped with a phone.   Is it technology, or do hospitals, like big banks, don’t want to hear from their victims err…  customers?     Perhaps soon, Americans may know what it is like to be on a secret medical waiting list like vets.

Credit Squeeze
http://www.washingtontimes.com

In an effort to constrict commerce, the FDIC has urged banks to place a credit squeeze on gun sellers by listing them as a “high risk.”     Meanwhile, the Department of Injustice launched “Operation Choke Point”, a credit card fraud probe focusing on banks and payment processors.     So, when gun shops accept cash only, will they be viewed as money launderers?

Too Big?
http://www.cnbc.com

Because of its dominant market position, a German official is openly contemplating the break-up of Google, which is based in the United States.     So, will the paid-off U.S. government fight for a company that avoids paying U.S. taxes?    We will see.

Lots of people fear a global pandemic.    One of the basic things people can do to prepare for a pandemic is to learn basic first aid and herbal remedies     If there’s a pandemic, hospital emergency rooms and doctors’ offices would be overwhelmed, and also filled with contagious people.      Preparing for a pandemic is similar to being prepared for other disasters.

Internet Explorer versus Murder Rate
http://gizmodo.com

I thought this was funny.     It turns out that there is a direct correlation between the falling murder rate since 2006 and the use of Internet Explorer.     So, perhaps Internet Explorer is the best browser…     To download a better browser.

140519 – Full-Blown Currency Wars


Today’s Items:

First…
Scramble
http://www.zerohedge.com

Deutsche Bank has 54.7 trillion euros in derivatives which is about 20 times Germany’s GDP of 2.7 trillion euros.     To raise badly needed capital, Deutsche Bank is preparing to raise 8 billion euros through new shares, at up to a 30% discount, by the end of June.     Something tells me that this is not going to go very well.   Of course, the top 5 U.S. banks hold over 290 trillion dollars in derivatives, which is 18.5 times the U.S. GDP of 15.7 trillion dollars.

Full-Blown Currency Wars
http://kingworldnews.com

According to William Kaye, the West is going to be impoverished when the U.S. dollar collapses.    The mainstream media will not report the truth about how other central banks print like crazy to keep their currencies on par with the dollar.    In addition, all of this could easily culminate in a major conflict and possibly even World War III.    He goes on to say that it is like a situation where there are a lot of fingers in the dike, and you just don’t know which one finger being removed might cause the dike to give way.

Madder Than Hell
http://www.theguardian.com

Obama, who ordered access to Veterans memorials be blocked on the first day of a government shutdown, who over saw cost-of-living cuts for veterans is reportedly “madder than hell” about the VA scandal?    Perhaps, only because it is now a scandal involving his administration.

High School Seniors
http://edsource.org

According to a report by the National Center for Education Statistics, Less than 40% of high school seniors in America have sufficient academic skills in math and reading to pass entry-level college courses.     With that said, if they have a pulse and a college loan, colleges will welcome them with open arms.

Armed USDA
http://www.shtfplan.com

The U.S. Department of Agriculture is set to purchase an unknown quantity of sub-machine guns.      In fact, they want guns with a 30 round capacity.     Of course, they will likely practice using hollow point bullets on targets of children and pregnant women.     Who could have thought that raw milk was that deadly?

Fluoride
http://naturalsociety.com

About 60,000 households in Florida rejected spending 800,000 dollars to poison err…    fluoridate their water supply.      Even Dallas, Texas is considering stopping the five decade long scheme.      People are either waking up to fluoride, which was used by Nazis in Concentration camps, or the economics are forcing people to make better decisions.    Either way, this is a good thing.
