The Swedish ‘Statistics Sweden’, a government agency meant to supply statistics for decision making, debate and research, announced today that Swedes total fortune have increased. Among other things the report includes numbers that say that at the end of June 2009 households' wealth in shares was worth SEK 412 billion - an increase of SEK 77 billion since the end of last year. And, during the second quarter, households' financial assets increased by SEK 348 billion and amounted to SEK 4 996 billion. The statement says that; the positive development on the stock market contributed to the increased value of, among other things, households' holdings of shares, equity funds and insurance. Households’ financial savings amounted to SEK 28 billion in the second quarter of 2009. This is a somewhat higher figure than the second quarter of last year when the corresponding figure was SEK 25 billion. Households had slightly positive net savings in shares, that is, they purchased more shares than they sold. Households' debts increased by SEK 57 billion during the second quarter. This a lower increase of debt than the same quarter of last year when the figure was SEK 62 billion, but it is the highest figure since then. In the three quarters in between, the increase in debt was between SEK 33 and 36 billion, which is a lower figure than others in the last four years. As usual, loans in housing finance institutions and banks comprise the largest part of the increase in debts; loans with these two creditors amounted to SEK 55 billion.
Now, this is highly interesting in several ways.
If we break down these numbers we have a couple of positive things, a couple of negative ones and a couple of very valuable advice to hand out. Although nothing of this says who actually got richer and which ones really have benefited - I would guess, among other things, that financial institutes are some of the main winners – but I also suspect many common people have some winnings to collect.
On the positive side we have higher levels of savings, which is great. Even despite very low interest rates many people have realised that they need to save for a rainy day. To bad the central bank baboons convey lower intellect then the populace and scheme to try to get people to borrow and spend. The higher value of the stock market is, properly handled, also a good thing, and here is were one advice comes in. Collect your winnings, now. Don’t wait. I’m absolutely sure that the stock market will continue to go up and down for several months more, so you could probably stay and collect more winnings, but that is risky business. If you really feel the urge to continue with this very volatile affair, invest in commodities like food - which will have an increase in prices in the near future. Gold and silver are still great buys; don’t believe in that crap about precious metals having reached their peak, they haven’t. I would also recommend oil. The next time oil prices dip down a bit, buy. Within a year the dollar will in all likelihood collapse which will throw oil-prices up towards $200 a barrel or even higher. But the best advice is really to sell, pay of any mortgage or loan, buy Gold and sit tight. The crash will, according to me, probably not happen until February/Mars next year, but better to be safe then sorry.
On the negative side we have higher levels of borrowing, mainly curtsey of the central banks idiocy. If you have borrowed to buy stocks or real-estate you are utterly fucked if you don’t sell very soon. If you have just spent the money on useless items then you’re an idiot, and you will be one of the main losers in the future. Prepare to beg for food, standing in line at the soup-kitchen and roam the countryside without any hope.
Since most of you seemingly have borrowed from housing finance institutions I hope you did so early on in this depression so you now can sell at a higher price. Having large chunks of money in assets like real-estate or housing is not really a good idea; there is a boom right now. If you really need to, at least make sure you have your mortgages at fixed interest rates, they are still low, so go do that if you haven’t already. I would also recommend buying seeds to grow your own crops and stock up on oil and similar commodities that will come with a higher price and be scarcer in the future. Banks should be avoided as much as possible. If you want to stay with a regular big banking institution, change to Handelsbanken that seems to have at least some economists with a working brain.
All in all, it depends what you do now. Advices aside, please go and check numbers and all the facts floating around out there. There is enough information and the math doesn’t lie. 1+1=2 and 2-1=1, always. So do not believe in me, or anyone else, find it out for yourself. Don't let any cornflake economist or politician dictate your decisions.
I might be wrong about the timing, but I’m not wrong about the end result. There is a very bumpy road in front of us and around a turn, just up ahead, is a deep chasm of depression-stupidity, please do not jump down the abyss. Well, for my amusement, please do, but for your own and your families safety; don’t.

Another one bites the dust
Senator Edward M. Kennedy, the Massachusetts Democrat and liberal who was the last surviving brother of a legendary political family, died late Tuesday at his home in Hyannis Port, his family announced. He got to live as long as to 77.
Kennedy had been in declining health since having a seizure in May 2008. Subsequent tests determined that he had a malevolent brain tumour. As the standard-bearer for the liberal wing of the Democratic Party, "Teddy" believed in government's ability to help solve people's problems, and over the decades he learned how to wield power in the Senate to move the government in that direction. In other words a leftie nut-job.
I think I leave Obnoxio The Clown to cover this news in his own little way:
Obnoxio The Clown
Eddie's Teddy
From the day he was born, he was trouble.
He was the thorn in his country's side.
They tried in vain, but he never caused them nothing but shame.
He lost shame when they tried...
From the day she was gone, all he wanted
Was left-wing porn; to fund the IRA
Shooting up junk
He was a low-down, cheap little punk.
Taking Mary-Jo for a ride...
When Teddy said he didn't save Kopechne you knew he was a no-good kid
But when he threatened her life with a sinking car
When he died
Makes you smile
Und I did.
Everybody shoved him, I very nearly loved him
I said hey listen to me, stay sane inside insanity
But he locked the door and threw away the key...
But he must been drawn into something
Making him warn me in a note which reads (what's it say, what's it say?)
"I'm outta my head, O hurry or I may be dead.
They mustn't carry out their evil deeds..."
When Teddy said he didn't save Kopechne you knew he was a no-good kid
But when he threatened her life with a sinking car
When he died
Makes you smile
Und I did.
Rest in absolute misery, you murdering scum.

Lies, lies, lies and a murderess
Today (or yesterday if you not live in Sweden where you consequently read translated stuff from English papers) it’s announced in several newspapers that Honduras interim government promises that there will be an election in November. This is, of course, very old news; the current establishment have been saying that from the very start. Throwing out the dictator wannabe Manuel Zelaya was according to the constitution and consequently a democratic move and already back then the parliament and the temporarily leader, Roberto Micheletti, announced that the coming election would be held and a new government to be chosen. The only reason our journalists write this crap now and in the way they do it, is to further throw suspicions over the peace loving Honduran people. It’s disgusting to see and read. How can journalists get away with not only ignoring their jobs, but in actuality hide and cover the actual facts?
We can also read that American households are getting more optimistic. This is taken as a good sign by our lovable journalists, further spreading the lie that the recession is easing off. However, if one actually read the report things look a bit different. The Conference Board Consumer Confidence Index stands, according to the report, at 54.1 (1985=100), up from 47.4 in July. The Present Situation Index improved somewhat to 24.9 from 23.3 last month. This is what the idiots refer to, but looking inside the report (you can find it here) you notice that the amount of consumers expecting an increase in their incomes is only 10.6 percent. Slightly up, but is that really a sign of confidence? 10.6%? Wait, it gets better. The Richmond manufacturing index was expected to rise to 16 from 14, but didn't - it instead remain unchanged. You don’t need to be an economist to understand the implication of this fact. Furthermore, and perhaps most importantly, these increases all comes from the current “easing off” or “halting” of the depression. Since this temporarily “stop” is because of humongous government spending and the fictively low interest rates both which either is due to end or need further boosting (more bail-outs and stimulus). If it were to end now it would mean that it would totally wipe out the slight positivism shown in this report. In fact, the actual numbers, without the trickery, would in all likelihood be lower than before. All in all this is just another example of horrible bad journalism.
In a editorial article in one of Sweden’s leading papers, meant to be a contribution to the debate about road-taxation, a couple of inbred three hugging freaks argues that the Swedish governments suggestion not really saves the environment since the money is mainly meant to be spent to improve existing roads or build new roads. Both these groupings are, of course, lying. The whole thing is about taxation, period. The government knows it cannot increase regular taxation to pay for this scam and since the money being stolen through normal taxation needs to go to useful projects like art students pretending to be mad, government jets, fish-cultivation in the Baltic and increased wages for elected frauds; it does not leave enough money to cover something like new roads. Consequently this is just another way to bring in money to the treasury and has nothing whatsoever to do with the environment. But the biggest lie is the scaremongering madness they use as argument, namely manmade global warming - the biggest hoax there is of which there is not one single fact or scientific evidence for. The entire debate is subsequently pointless, but they got to be in the paper at least, good for them.
And finally, Annika Östberg seems to be close to getting released. This woman helped murder a couple of people in California and was turned over to Swedish authorities earlier this year. And, of course, the Swedish so called justice-system is about to let her out. It might be a good thing that the government have another person to throw welfare at, it would increase GDP slightly, but it is hard to call this anything else than murderess-import. Why should the Swedish tax payers pay for the trip, the temporarily incarceration and now, most likely, her rehabilitation and welfare? It makes no sense. She should have been left rotting in a Californian prison cell, but rationality isn’t on the agenda. Maybe her 28 years so far is enough and maybe she can contribute in some way, if so kudos to her, but this seems like just another mad scheme from the oppressive class.

Swine flu and GDP
I have been thinking about this horrifying, very scary, death-dealing, murderess disaster and main killer of all humans that is Swiney flu. Do you remember that some cornflake economist and some smug politicians mentioned that this could be bad for the economy? Well, that doesn’t need to be the case. Imagine that unemployment is very high, which it already is, and the only ones, or a clear majority, of those that gets the Hog pestilence have no jobs. It would be fantastic! Doctors and nurses with more to do, more staff needed, machines and equipment being bought, more soap being used, enforcing quarantines with police and military, reporters being sent here and there, politicians need to travel more, forced inoculations, more pills being eaten and so on and so on. If this is done for, oh, let’s say, borrowed money, it means higher GDP! And since all that the enemy class talk about, in regards to the economy, is GDP numbers as being the magical pixie dust needed to cure us from reality and basic math, how can anyone be against such a scenario?
Of course this is contingent on that most people getting sick are the none working ones or that the actual cost for treatment goes over the cost of the alternative i.e. welfare or working instead. The later, regarding price tag, shouldn’t be an issue, those machines and doctors are pretty expensive. So a welfare-case being emitted to a hospital just for a couple of days will end up as a big plus in government’s book-keeping, but even a hard working individual, just laying there for a while costing mucho dinero, can very well be a huge boost to GDP. All the government needs to see to is that the actual cost of keeping a certain individual is higher than the alternative, and, of course, see to it that the money comes from somewhere exiting like borrowing from China, taking people savings to spend it or making use of that oh so funny printing machine.
And maybe, just maybe, since the interest rates are unnaturally low at the moment hence cheap to borrow, the government could urge people to borrow lots of cash to pay for such treatment themselves. This scenario would also boost GDP, and it wouldn’t nibble on politician’s spending-pile so the politician can have a nice dinner, take a trip to the countryside or buy a new jet, all of which would also increase GDP.
Another good thing, that we could learn from the past - that also would be great for GDP, is to burn clothes or even houses where that awful plague have been. Those things need to be replaced, well not straight away, people can stand a little cold or stay at a shelter for a while, but rebuilding is fun and it would improve GDP.
Oh, I could go on for a long while giving more magnificent examples, but I’m sure one of those cornflake economists or some journalists can cook up another scheme just as efficient as any of mine, because, Satan knows, they have been fantastic at it so far...
What did you say? People dying? Well, that can also be turned into something positive. As long as the person in question ended up costing more than the alternative which means, in the short run, that GDP still would flourish. Of course, in the longer perspective, the person might have been a productive part of society, but when that shows up at the state accountant department, the government may have been replaced (they can blame the successors) or they simply borrow more money to cover the potential loss. Also, GDP is often referred to according per capita, per head, so one head less isn’t necessary a bad thing. A paraplegic you say? Fantastic! How much doesn’t such a person cost each year? So keep taking those injections, if you (the government really) gets lucky, you will be needing a nurse and constant care for the rest of your life and the longer you live in such a condition (better start as a child), the better for GDP.
All in all, properly handled, the Piggy virus can be a virtual gold-mine for our elitists. Remember I said it first; I’ll be waiting for that Nobel Prize they usually hand out to suggestion like this.

Another day with more lies
It is almost like our journalists need to debunk every negative economic report they are “forced” to print/show, and this they do with 2 or 3 positive ones, all the while ignoring the truly negative.
The whole thing is really very easy. On one side you have lots of economists, financiers, bankers, politicians, journalists and other frauds. None of which predicted this crisis, none of which have had a single right so far. In fact, for these people every prediction, every expected number and the very depth and severity of this crisis has gone wrong. They were totally of the mark before this crisis, they have been way off during it, and so why on Beelzebub’s green earth would you listen to them now?
On the other side you have people that predicted this crisis many years before it happened. Most of which continues to get it right all throughout. In many cases it’s almost uncanny how some predicted almost to the exact number the value of Gold, the price of oil and so on. I do take pride in being one of those people. Although I’m perhaps a tad “out there” so you might instead wanna go listen to Gerald Celente, Marc Farber, Rand Paul or (my favourite) the Market ticker instead.
But isn’t the crisis turning around like all our enemies say?
No. What we are seeing is a boom and bust situation were lots of fiat money have been thrown to certain financial institutes that put those money to “good use”, were massive debt accumulations in practically every country on earth have lead to slight increases or halting of the fall of GDP, and it’s a situation were stock manipulations and investors increasing risk-taking (read this in LA Times) have altogether contributed to a temporary halt. In some cases, like France, Germany and Japan, trade surpluses also helps with the scam. You need to understand that people whom actually know what they are talking about is saying that many markets is so overvalued its almost impossible for them not to burst.
Our total situation is not getting better, in fact its lots worse today then it was a couple of years ago. Although it is true that some countries (Sweden for one), are better off then others, at least temporarily, but the coming crashes will not save those from going down with the rest. And if you really want good indications on how the economy really is going, take a look at the sex-industry that is supposedly ‘recession proof’ – the sex-trade have never slumped like this ever before, not during the Great Depression, never. Or have a look at the total figures on protectionism that is still on much higher levels then before the crisis, and take a look at the Baltic Dry Cargo index that hasn’t been this low since the dot.com bubble burst. Or look the number of actual pirates sailing the seas. These examples are not scientific proof, but they are hell of a lot more on the spot than any cornflake economist.
Think of our situation like this (this is fact, not an imaginative example). You are Swedish, and you have, yourself, borrowed and spent to a level that is equivalent of 150% of what you earn per year i.e. you are so deeply in debt that you hardly can afford to pay the interest, and that’s today at the fictive very low levels the interest rates are at. Unemployment is very high and very few are actually in a safe position, job-wise. Looking at the stock-exchange and all those big companies around you, you notice that they go up and down. Some companies show very bad results, some do pretty well (just follow the news ticking in, almost funny to watch. Every other company shows “surprising winnings” and others show very bad numbers). The stock market goes up to new heights one day and goes down the next. In such a situation, which we are in now, don’t you feel a bit uneasy? A bit worried? And do you really think that buying a house in this situation with the current and tampered low interest rates is a good idea?
But then throw a glance towards America and the UK, two of Sweden’s main trading partners, and there you will find even worse numbers and much more of the same uneasy tension you are feeling about Sweden. After that; take a look at China that supposedly has a growing economy, counted in GDP. China is the main drive force for everything our enemies are saying right now. They are the main lender to the US and without China Bernanke and the rest of the buffoons wouldn’t have money at all. China is the main reason for the increase in Japanese and German export numbers and China is also one of the main reasons why the stock markets around the world are doing pretty well at the moment. Do you have this scenario in your head now? Okay, now what you need to know is that China is about to tighten their protectionism further, and that one of the main sources of income, the government selling land to people, is not doing so well and falling. Got the picture?
Now, before we get to the conclusion, what is GDP?
This is how GDP is normally counted:
GDP = private consumption + gross investment + government spending + (exports − imports), or,
GDP = C + I + G + (X − M).
If you understand this simple equation, which 99% of our politicians, economists and journalists don’t, you soon realize that this can very easily be tampered with. Government spending for one – all the government need to do is to borrow and/or print a shit-load of money, throw them around and presto! Higher GDP! And what are our governments doing? That’s right…
On point after point after point, this equation, that is supposed to show economic growth, becomes idiotic at best. Higher GDP does not mean higher values! Higher GDP does not mean that we are producing more! Higher GDP does not mean more money in your pocket! It can show all those things, but most of the time it doesn’t. Now, take a look around again, watch, learn, listen, read and, from our situation above, where do we stand today? What does higher GDP really means for those countries that are “out of the recession”?
Maybe you come to the same conclusion as I do after this little session, but wait! It gets better! I haven’t even mentioned how the dollar is doing and what that will do to oil prices, the coming commercial real-estate crash in the US and many other things. ...Well... just put it altogether and I’ll see you out on that deserted island far away from this entire apocalyptical scenario. I may even give you a sip of my freshly brewed vodka and we can nibble on some popcorn together watching the sun go down while listening to the radio hearing how journalists, politicians and economists is trying to explain why we need another stimulus while the world is crumbling under them and people take to the streets with ropes they start throwing around lamp-posts. Yepp, come on over. We can have fun together.
The whole thing is really very easy. On one side you have lots of economists, financiers, bankers, politicians, journalists and other frauds. None of which predicted this crisis, none of which have had a single right so far. In fact, for these people every prediction, every expected number and the very depth and severity of this crisis has gone wrong.

Now, before we get to the conclusion, what is GDP?
This is how GDP is normally counted:
GDP = private consumption + gross investment + government spending + (exports − imports), or,
GDP = C + I + G + (X − M).
If you understand this simple equation, which 99% of our politicians, economists and journalists don’t, you soon realize that this can very easily be tampered with. Government spending for one – all the government need to do is to borrow and/or print a shit-load of money, throw them around and presto! Higher GDP! And what are our governments doing? That’s right…
On point after point after point, this equation, that is supposed to show economic growth, becomes idiotic at best. Higher GDP does not mean higher values! Higher GDP does not mean that we are producing more! Higher GDP does not mean more money in your pocket! It can show all those things, but most of the time it doesn’t. Now, take a look around again, watch, learn, listen, read and, from our situation above, where do we stand today? What does higher GDP really means for those countries that are “out of the recession”?
Maybe you come to the same conclusion as I do after this little session, but wait! It gets better! I haven’t even mentioned how the dollar is doing and what that will do to oil prices, the coming commercial real-estate crash in the US and many other things. ...Well... just put it altogether and I’ll see you out on that deserted island far away from this entire apocalyptical scenario. I may even give you a sip of my freshly brewed vodka and we can nibble on some popcorn together watching the sun go down while listening to the radio hearing how journalists, politicians and economists is trying to explain why we need another stimulus while the world is crumbling under them and people take to the streets with ropes they start throwing around lamp-posts. Yepp, come on over. We can have fun together.

Other pieces of the puzzle
China mines over 95 percent of the world’s rare earth minerals, mostly in Inner Mongolia. But a report from China’s Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has called for a TOTAL BAN on foreign shipments of terbium, dysprosium, yttrium, thulium, and lutetium. Other metals such as neodymium, europium, cerium, and lanthanum will be restricted to a combined export quota of 35,000 tonnes a year, far below global needs of those metals.
This happens at the same time as Asian stocks dropped on Tuesday 25th 2009, with China's main index tumbling more than 5%. Analysts say that investors tread cautiously after a series of gains and looked for more signs of economic recovery. Since there never was and never will any recovery, only temporary ups and downs, what they in reality is looking for is signs of certain “stimulated” areas or sure bets. Maybe some will, thanks to all that newly printed money, throw some investments into the fire in pure speculations and keep the scam going for a while yet.
And Dick Bove, a prominent US banking analyst, is issuing warnings. According to him an additional 200 US banks will fail before the recession is over adding to the 80+ already gone out of business. He is, of course, a complete optimist and seemingly only takes into account what can be seen today. Bove also added that US need to rely on bigger and stronger banks to “protect deposits”. Riiiiight…
Finally, media keeps spreading the scam that Germany is out of the depression. Our enemies are gathering...

We are just seeing the beginning
As I have said before on several occasions, the first couple of laws and authorities regarding internet was just the start. Almost every day we are meet by new restrictions, new taxes or new voices that wants to ban, outlaw or regulate certain areas of the online community.
In the UK it is now suggested that people who file-share will get their internet connection cut off. In the same suggestion it’s included that the government will take control over who targets and hunt illegal downloader’s. This is to “speed up the process”.
In Sweden some court has told an internet provider to cut out the Piratebay which, temporarily, lead to the site going down yesterday.
In other words everything goes just as predicted and while I keep nibbling on some popcorn our enemies will continue on this path to tighten control more and more.
I’m actually starting to look forward to that apocalyptic and economic meltdown, its going to be hilarious.

He'll be back
In the US of A the evil trickster Ben Bernanke is getting support from the Obamination for re-election as Fed chairman. Bernanke that has almost total support from those he has been helping and giving trillions of dollars of tax-money to - namely Wall Street - is probably getting to face some opposition but with the propaganda machine running wild and the Obamination stating his faulting reputation it’s a high risk that this lying bastard will get elected again. Consequently another piece of the puzzle for total economic meltdown is soon put into place.
Rejoicing Greeks
In Greece fires have consumed over 120,000 hectares of countryside and forest, killing wildlife and destroying hundreds of cars, homes and monasteries. As the prefect of Athens, Yiannis Sgouros, spoke of an "ecological disaster", increasing numbers of Greeks were resorting to local media outlets to call for help and vent their anger over bad government decisions. Thousands are in running from their homes and the fires are yet to be brought under control.
All of this is, of course, fantastic news!! As every cornflake economist and fraudulent politician of this world knows, this will increase GDP!! It seems like Greece will be the next country to “get out of the recession”. So all you Greeks out there dance and be happy, let the fire devour your homes, forests and fields and put a smile on your face. Oh happy days!

Your first line of defence against the lies
This is guy is unbelievably good. I have urged you all to visit before and I’ll do so again. The Market Ticker
If you don’t listen to me, Peter Schiff or anyone else that is trying to warn you about the looming disaster, maybe you will listen to this guy; The Market Ticker Although mostly abut the US, the same frauds are being committed pretty much everywhere and US of A is a very important player in regards to the world economies.

Free Anna Odell – and give the woman more tax money
One of my favourite people, Anna Odell, is standing trial in Sweden today. This little cutie has shown us all where our tax-money really goes; down the black hole that is government. She managed this feat by pretending to be mentally ill, “tried” to jump of a bridge, and got herself locked up and, apparently, did hurt some nurses in the process. According to some rumours she even tossed feces at the nurses. Then, whoopedido, she was sane again and could graduate from her art-class with this art-work as her exam, everything paid for by the tax payers. And yes, this little move is regarded as “art” by some morons within the Swedish publicly run school system.
Now, standing trial, I’m hoping she is let free, and even more so; we should throw tons of money at her, sacks of ‘em. Give the female a billion or two and let her waste it like she is a politician. Never in my adult life has anyone so clearly shown the Swedish citizens where the tax money really goes and who puts it to use. Well, there was that other art student who thrashed and pissed in a subway train (same school) also as an exam-project. That guy is also a true hero, but otherwise who could ever measure up to this piece of brilliant madness?
I also have a tip for her. The next project should involve her actually jumping. She was let out of the public mental ward, if she actually went that extra mile (all for art!) and actually jumped she would prove how badly managed that thing really is, she clearly was sick, how could they let her go free? Also, if she survives, she can see the inside of a hospital and, again, show how bad things are run at that publicly run place. A win win!

What Jewish papers write
Have spent the morning reading several articles and stories in Israeli newspapers and its really funny reading. Among other things I picked up a couple of stories in The Jerusalem Post. One quoted former Sweden residents, saying, among other things: “the anti-Semitism in Sweden is so deep-rooted that the people don't even know they're anti-Semitic." In the same paper you can read a story supposedly written by the former wife of the former Israeli ambassador in Sweden. This woman claims Sweden “abuses its freedom of speech” and recites a couple of incidents in this regard. I could go on and tell you about more stories like these, but you really should go and read them yourself.
Anyway, the stories have one common dominator; demonize Sweden and Swedes as anti-Semitic and further enhance the feeling of “us against them”. In doing so, really achieving the same level of stupidity they are accusing Sweden and the Swedish paper of having. I’m not saying all of the claims are wrong, of course not. There are lots of leftie idiots in Sweden, especially among journalists, which explain why they never do their job. There is anti-Israeli demonstration every year and it’s hard to walk down the street without bumping into a girl wearing a Palestinian keffiyeh. It is also true that there is a large Muslim population in Sweden wherein some elements are hard-line haters of Judaism. However, there are two facts that should be told. Firstly I would say that a vast majority of Swedes, at least in asked to chose a side between Israel or its Arabic neighbours, will side with Israel. Secondly, and this is important, nothing of this has anything to do with this diplomatic debacle. Nothing. It’s about freedom of speech, period.
It does not matter how many articles or stories the Jewish propaganda machine spits out, it does not change the fact that this was one journalist in one Swedish paper. I personally don’t care if the man is a Communist-Nazi and celebrate the Holocaust each year, it’s still his right to say or write whatever as long as its not pure threats. Why should the Swedish government, in effect the Swedish people, apologize or condemn one idiot’s ramblings in a paper no one with intellect cares about?
And again I need to question the lack of grey matter among the ruling elite in Israel. If the purpose is to try to stop the “anti-Semitic” ways in certain countries, then this is an utter failure of epic proportions. If the purpose is to strengthen the lefties propaganda and give more power to those who truly are Israel’s enemies, congratulations, it’s a success. Already we have seen several Swedish articles about other “side-issues” that tries to label Israel as a crocked racist state, and one can almost hear the chuckle in locked basement filled with skinheads wearing huge combat boots.
Once upon a time I walked into an anti-Israeli demonstration with a collect-box together with some similar minded friends and collected several hundreds from stupid lefties. On the box you could openly, and clearly, read: “collecting for the Israeli Army”. The money was later sent, if I remember correctly, to a Jewish foundation for war-victims. As a response for this and many similar actions I received venomous death-threats. I believe Israel has the right to exist and in many cases, although not all, I support the Jewish state. However, this issue is about free speech and even if Sweden is in no way perfect in this regard (fascist laws in regards to Internet for one), we who are believers in human right will always side with the freedom of expression. Even if this means we indirectly support a horrifying leftie journalist with a clear agenda of hatred towards Israel.
This is what it means to fight for freedom and democracy, even when it hurts and you really don’t want to, the basic rights most come first. For me, this goes all the way through regarding all rights, for others not so much. But for once the Swedish populace is almost in total agreement and this Israel needs to acknowledge before they do more damage on a issue that could easily been handled in a much better way.

Debunking more lies
A couple articles in Swedish newspapers today is talking about the current depression and how things are “turning around”. As usual without any sense of reality or basic understanding of math, so lets debunk those shall we?
1. Germany and France are out of the ‘recession’
Not true. You can read how I already have revealed that lie here. Basically what have been done are three things: One is that those governments have thrown billions at the car industry and since all that cornflake economists are looking for is higher GDP, they have succeeded. Not taking into account that this is a fictive run or that this means that people that soon might have bought a car anyway now wont. Another reason is that trade surpluses can be shown which makes up almost half of both countries GDP plusses. The third is lots of different useless government projects, mainly on borrowed money, that also increases GDP. All of these numbers are consequently manufactured, not actual increases in wealth. And what will happen when those government programs runs out? Although, granted, France and Germany is in better shape than many other countries, one cannot say they are out of the wood, that’s a lie.
2. Japan is out of the ‘recession’
Japan is living almost entirely on trade surpluses, mainly to China that, as mentioned, is living in a fictive world of boom and bust. You can read about my earlier debunking of that travesty here.
3. A fall in Real-Estate prices in the US
I don’t really know what they got those numbers from, although true that the prices has fallen slightly lately the levels are still way to high and as foreclosures and defaulting is reaching the highest levels in history at the same time as new developments never before have been this low it is hard to see the positives. You can read more about this lie here.
Also, as mentioned in that link, the commercial real-estate bubble is about to burst. With interest rates at zero and lots of cheap fiat money available the real prices are much much lower.
4. The psychological financial climate has changed
This is partly true. With trillions of freshly printed dollars in circulation the financial institutes are doing insider trading, and gambling on a rising stock market for future gains. Many banks are also showing profits for the first time in a year which further increases the madness. Here you need to know that many banks, almost all of the important US ones, are double-dealing and lying about their numbers. Every time a fallen bank has gone bankrupt, the value is written down 25%-30%-40% and even over 50% which means that ITS ALL A LIE! If there is this much overvalue in many banks, not just American ones, we have enormous bubbles developing. The entire situation is totally absurd. Almost all that money that governments and central banks have thrown into the system is going to financial institutes whom then (as before and during the crisis) fictively increase their own value and put much of that money to use at the stock market that increases stocks even further. This is the mother of all bubbles and if we were to crash from these levels down to depression numbers, which we in all likelihood will, it will make the “Great Depression” look like a walk in the park.
5. The credit crunch is easing off and people are borrowing.
This is crazy at so many levels its hard to know where to begin. First of all the total debts levels are reaching such heights its ridiculous. Many countries have total debts of well over 300% of GDP! Never before in history have such debt accumulation been seen. Not even if you put the first and second world war together we reach up to our current levels. Can you imagine that? If you really comprehend this madness you are probably laughing as uncontrollable as I am.
But, of course, it doesn’t stop there. Because most of the money we borrow is already borrowed and indebted since it comes from *drum roll* the printing machine! Looking at history, not even Zimbabwe started with these levels of printing. But even this isn’t enough. We have also the fun fact that interest rates are already desperately needed at much higher levels. In a real market economy the rates would be around 5-10% now depending on which country we are talking about. So what do you think is going to happen when interest rates eventually goes up if you look at all those suckers that has borrowed indebted money to buy things they in reality cannot afford? This scenario might be frightening and should make you start piling up dried-up food packages, but add to this equation what I wrote about banks further up and you will start to realize what I and many others have; we are soooo screwed that it dwarfs anything from human history. We have never been in this much trouble - things have never before looked this bad.
6. We can recover despite high unemployment
Some politicians have claim we have a jobless recovery. Wtf!? So unemployment levels in double digits aren’t a problem? People having no income in addition to further increases on welfare expenditures aren’t a problem? People not able to pay back their loans or mortgages are a good thing? More demonstrations or even civil unrest is fantastic? What world do these people live in? Idiots!
The final things you need to worry about are those things that haven’t happened yet. What I mean is what if oil-producing Venezuela ends up in a war with Columbia or USA’s military attacks oil-producing Iran? What if China has a real rebellion? What if a terrorist attack by nuclear or chemical weapons strikes London? What if Russia starts cleaning house among the old Soviet states? The possibilities for such events are endless and mark my words, one or several of the mentioned or similar ones are in the works at the very time you read this. And if such an event takes place, what will that do to the world economy?
Please take notes. Every journalists writing this crap and every economists that is trying to fool you should be on you future hit list. All our politicians, with very few exceptions, from left to right, are liable and should be hold accountable. There is no recovery, it cannot happen. Even if fictive numbers and temporarily gains can be shown - it’s all a lie! We cannot recover until we have changed the way we live and throw out the old order as well as the coming new order. We need a fresh start and that will not come from above, its up to you, the average man, you are the one that might turn this around. I don’t think you will because there are no heroes left in the world, but if you don’t, there will be no end to this madness.

Eating a none Israeli orange
It has been a very long time since one could have a sense of pride in regards to a Swedish government, but honor those that deserve it.
The current Swedish administration has been imposing fascist laws regarding the free media, heighten taxes on gasoline and tobacco, they have not cut expenditures enough and that stupid central bank is keeping interest rates so low it will ruin the economy, but still, I need to praise the Swedish government when they actually deserve it and now they do. Apparently those Israeli idiots keep quarrelling for a condemnation and apology from Sweden for what one journalist wrote in one leftie paper. Both the Swedish foreign minister and the prime minister have told the Jewish idiots that they are not the publisher of that paper and that there is such a thing as freedom of speech. Halləluya.
And it is very hard to figure out why Sweden, the Swedish populace or the government should apologize. It was one journalist in one newspaper, what have the rest done? Bought the paper? Not rooted enough for new settlements in occupied territories? Those Israeli idiots need to get real and smell their own stupidity. And what about those allegations? Surly they can be disproven? We all know that things happens in a war and it is likely that one or the other soldier have raped, shoot a kid or stolen some organs, it happens. Nothing really strange about it so say that if that’s the case, otherwise just disprove those claims and we can start ridiculing the paper and the journalist.
What the Israelis should do is to call for a boycott of that paper that, most likely, is spreading lies. That is also something people can do in a democracy, refuse to buy crap. But no, Israeli politicians are still posturing and arguing for a case they cannot win. It doesn’t matter even if the Swedish government eventually caves in; the only looser in this debacle is Israel. The winner? Of course leftie morons of the red, brown and black color that gets a real argument for a change.
But I need to admit, this is entertainment. So while am nibbling on a orange that is of the none-Israeli variety I’m hoping some Swedish politician lose it and start with the same name-calling as the Israeli idiots does. Or, better yet, puts a stretched and thin Challah on the middle finger and wave it up in the air in the Israeli faces. Fun fun fun…

Of course leftie morons of the red, brown and black color that gets a real argument for a change.
But I need to admit, this is entertainment. So while am nibbling on a orange that is of the none-Israeli variety I’m hoping some Swedish politician lose it and start with the same name-calling as the Israeli idiots does. Or, better yet, puts a stretched and thin Challah on the middle finger and wave it up in the air in the Israeli faces. Fun fun fun…

How to feel more secure
If you get attacked one day you have - if it’s not very surprising from behind - a couple of seconds to react. Sometimes even more than that. During this time you can run, cuddle up to protect your most precious bodily parts or you can fight back. The later is not easy, especially for a smallish woman facing one or two men twice her size. Not even a black belt might help in that scenario. In other words a female getting mugged or raped has nothing to do but to take it since government conveniently has outlawed self-defense. However, there is one thing that always equalize such situations; a gun. If you feel vulnerable or need to feel safe, buy a gun. Government be damn.
But if you like getting raped or you believe the political propaganda; you can always keep the streets safe for rapists and such.

The next thing is WAR
This is not listening for the faint-hearted, but again, as so many times before, I find myself saying and writing the exact same thing as Gerald Celente. And if history repeat itself, and again we will be proven right in our predictions, you’ll better be prepared. Especially pay attention to what’s coming next according to Mr Celente. I have myself written the same here and I also have gone one step further here

Something big will happen before Christmas .The next thing we are looking to is WAR Gerald Celente
Gerald Celente on Jeff Rense radio 18 Aug 2009 The Revolution has begun :
Gerald Celente and The Trends Research Institute have earned the reputation as “today’s must trusted name in trends” for their accurate and timely predictions. Among them:
Predicted the “Panic of ’08” in November of 2007
Forecast the Recession of 2007 in 2004
Years before Starbucks was a household name, Gerald Celente forecast the popularity of gourmet coffee
Decades before Pepsi and Coke got into the water business, Gerald Celente predicted the “Big Boom in Bottled Water”
When gold was at $275 per ounce in 2002, Gerald Celente said the price had bottomed and in 2004 forecast the beginning of the “Gold Bull Run.” Since that time, with pinpoint accuracy, he said when, why – and how high – gold would go.
Gerald Celente coined the term “Clean Foods” in 1993 and predicted sustained growth in organic products in 1988
Nine months before 9/11, USA Today wrote, “2001 won’t be our year, trend seer says.” Gerald Celente warned that Americans wouldn’t be safe at home or abroad. (USA Today, December 14, 2000)
The Trends Research Institute and Gerald Celente were forerunners in the natural healing/alternative health movement
On the geopolitical and economic fronts, Gerald Celente and The Trends Research Institute are credited with the collapse of the Soviet Union, the last two economic recessions, the dot-com meltdown, the 1997 Asian currency crisis and the 1987 world stock market crash
Gerald Celente has forecast many real estate trends, including the big move to vacation spots and small towns, the growth in the second home market, a real estate "fizz" in 2005 ... plus hundreds of other social, business, fashion, consumer and entertainment trends.

International Swine Flu conference
Come across this surfing the net. Apparently a bunch of pseudo scientists, lawmakers and other so called dignitaries have had meetings this week talking about how to detain, mass-vaccinate and in other ways control the populace. All in all well over 700 participants from 40 countries. Of course it is regarding the swine flu thingy and of course it might sound worse than it is, but check this out. In the pdf-brochure from the conference (find that here) you can read, among other things, about the following:
(How to) Direct fatality management tactical operations
What? Okay, I might be jumping to conclusion here, but I certainly read something into this... don’t you?
(peoples) Unwillingness to follow government orders
I won’t take a flu shoot, never. What will happen to me? This is scary stuff. Much scarier than any flu. The government is supposed to know what to do with people like me? Oh my…
Prioritize antivirals & personal protective equipment for essential workforce
Oh, really? And who might this be?
Effectively undertake mass vaccinations
Oh my…
Enforce quarantines
!?!? Oh, I so need to move, now. Otherwise they will never let me leave...
Protect public works first responders from falling ill or being hurt in civil disturbances (+) Control and diffuse social unrest and public disorder
Civil disturbances!? This is the sort of thing “They” are discussing?
(How to) Transport ill students
Transport? Where? Under who’s authority?
Apparently it was attended by well-known emergency responders, heads of hospitals from around the world, and hog/swine industry leaders that spoke at this summit.
Hog/swine industry leaders!? Are they fucking kidding us?
During this whole flu scare media has been running around reporting the slightest little pip about it, but not this conference... It is hard to find any information whatsoever. This is scary if anything, so if journalist really want to sell papers, this is the sort of thing I aspect them to cover. Oh my oh my...

Oh, thank you kind sir
The so called “right-wing” party of Sweden, The Moderates (supposedly conservatives) is proposing a tax-cut of SEK 10 billion which is roughly to about £800 million. Although in the right direction, Sweden really need much lower taxes, this is a Pffff on top of a ‘who-cares’. Are they not nice wanting us to keep slightly more of our own money?
At the same time the Swedish government has a deficit of SEK 100 billion to cope with. In other words they need to cut spending with SEK 110 billion just to keep it even. Since this depression will keep going I would say at least the double is needed. An additional 90 billion in tax cuts and 110 billion cuts in expenditure would be sufficient for the coming years. The extra savings to cover lower incomes since more people will be unemployed. This I would say is doable before next years election and very much needed. If all local councils do the same and we finally get that stupid central bank to increase interest rates to a more secure 4-5% my birth nation would be much better equipped to handle the near future.
It also seems like the Swedish Government won't apologize or comment on the news article the Israeli idiots are complaining about. One good thing (the only one?) the current Swedish government has done. If they only could do a 180 with the fascist laws regarding internet (kind of rimes bad with the current discussion about freedom of speech) and listen to my economic advice, and Sweden would be the only country in the world heading in the right direction.

Climate change is real!
Yes, the headline is correct. Throughout history we have had several ice-ages and many millennia when it was warmer than today. So fact 1 is that we can say with absolut certainty that: our climate changes, it always has and it always will.
Throughout history there has also been higher and lower levels of carbon dioxide than today in the atmosphere, so this is fact 2.
Fact 3 is that it has been scientifically proven that the Sun plays the major roll in how the climate changes. Although scientist argue about if it is to a degree of 99,5% or 99,9%, there is no doubt and there is absolute consensus that the sun is the main culprit.
The intergovernmental panel on climate change (IPCC) is not only a bunch of scientists, its lots of bureaucrats, politicians and so on. And those scientists that sit on that panel are almost to 100% (I could not find any from the private sector) hired by and representing governments. They have also had several people that have left their mist - real scientist that is. On several key points they draw conclusions on faulty data. So this is fact 5.
I could go on for a very long time and point after point after point all the science, all the evidence and all facts are in 100% agreement; man-made global warming is a hoax. Even IF humans effect climate (and even this is not proven) the impact is so small, so minuscule that we could have 100 billion more people on this planet all burning fossil-fuel and they would still not effect climate more than a couple of average sized volcanoes erupting.
In other words, fact 6, and the only fact you need to know is; that there is no evidence for man-made global warming! Not a single one! Nada, zilch, zero, nil, zip, nothing. Every time a politician wants to raise your taxes (which is what this is about) call him on it, refuse to pay until facts have been laid on the table. And if he argues that mankind effect climate by a degee of 0,05% - which is highest number I have seen, most numbers are way lower – ask him/her what to do about the sun. Apparently the sun is trying to murder us all; we need to stop that beast. So until your politician comes up with a good solid attack plan how to utterly destroy or blot out the sun, you will know that he/she doesn’t care about you. If those in power wanted to save us from climate change and save the world; sunlight should be taxed; the Sun should be condemned in media, and the Sun should be UNs arch nemesis.
Don’t fall for the scam. This is history’s most absurd statement - even bigger than claiming that the earth is flat, that the moon is made out of cheese or that socialism actually can work. It’s a swindle of epic proportions and you are the one that are paying for it and will pay for it, because, as said, this is about money, tax money, nothing else.

Israel threatens Sweden
Again I need to question the sensibility and intellect of the Israeli idiots. First of all, when you are surrounded by a couple of hundred of millions Arabs and Muslims whom, to a large degree, wants to eliminate your nation, do you really pick a fight with a country thousand miles away over a news article? Secondly, doesn’t Sweden have enough skin-heads and other leftie ass-holes who hate Israel already - which make it unnecessary to create new ones? Because this is what those moronic Jews are doing. As mentioned, in a stupid part of the world, Israel is the least stupid part and I would argue that an overwhelming majority of Swedes support the Jewish people, even when they bomb schools. This situation, however, is a perfect example of how to turn friends and a generally positive opinion into so so enemies and a generally negative opinion.
How can the supporters of Israel’s existence argue their case when all their opponents need to do is throw out how the Jewish mafia wants to limit free speech?
A couple of newspapers and statements now suggest that the Israeli state department might take to the diplomatic offensive and condemn Sweden even further and/or even might block Swedish dignitaries to visit their country. Oh, and maybe they will cut of all supplies of oranges?
Israel should go and fight some terrorists instead, that they do a pretty good job at, diplomacy not so much.
And I still want to see an independent investigation into this matter so we either can tell the Jewish government to piss off and pick up their own mess or we can start stoning that stupid journalist. I would prefer the later since that paper and those journalists are leftie morons with their own agenda (the whole thing is probably a lie), but as long as Israel keep picking fights they cannot win against people that actually believe in free speech, they deserve every ‘fuck you’ they get.

Idiot Jews and stupid Muslims
There is no secret what I think of religion and I also believe that both sides in the Israel-Palestinian conflict are messed-up idiots. Since I know how to fix that conflict - it is very easy - but no one will ever listen I kind of just ignore all those morons. Fraudulent Banksters stealing our money and politicians imposing more fascist laws close to home seem more urgent
However, when some Muslim idiots complain over Muhammad drawings or scream over some football-supporters singing I need to call them on it. The same goes for Israeli fascists that condemn some leftie journalist writings in a Swedish Newspaper. The Journalist in question argued that some Jewish soldiers or whatnot is selling Palestinian organs on the black market. It wouldn’t surprise me if that is spot on; however, the idiot journalist has his own agenda so it’s probably not true. In either case it is his right, as well as anyone else’s, to write, say or express whatever he/she wants to. And what really bugs me is this stupid notion of the holocaust that always pops up every time you criticize Jews or Israel. Like Jews are not idiots? However horrifying the holocaust was, that occurrence is not a battering ram to use as a reacquiring excuse whenever Israelis fuck things up. So when Israel criticize a Swedish newspaper and demand that the Swedish State department should apologize on the behalf of freedom of speech; all the Jewish idiots are doing is giving the lefties all the ammunition they need to criticize even more and they also get more people on their side. Yes, the lefties are anti-Semite and hate Jews, what else is new? And yes, Swedish journalists in general don't like Israel, nothing new there either. Are Jews going to tell us the Sun is hot next? It is incredibly moronic to act in this way by Israel and if one ever needed a clear sign of Jewish stupidity, there you have it.
And where is that proof from either side? All the Israeli needs to do is do an independent investigation and the journalist in question can be ridiculed. But instead they seemingly go on the offensive and so far I haven’t seen any proof of what the journalists wrote are untrue. However, the ass-hole journalist should of course also be liable and actually show some facts instead of rely on very sketchy Palestinian propaganda. The whole story seems very unnecessary, which might be the point…
As usual everyone is blaming, shouting and arguing some crap about crap in a crappy world that is filled with crappy religions and crappy journalists. When will people wake up, smell the manure and really do something about this messed up world?

What the news don’t tell you - US
In California the number of homeowners who are either behind on their payments or in foreclosure rose to more than 13%, a new record. The delinquency rate, which includes loans that are at least one payment past due but does not include homes in foreclosure, is the highest in records since measurements started in 1972.
The problem was worst in Florida, where almost 23% of mortgages were delinquent or in foreclosure at the end of the June. The next highest states were Nevada at 21.3%, Arizona at 16.3% and Michigan at 15.3%.
A normal number a normal year is around 4-6%

"Definite signs that business and industry have turned the corner from the temporary period of emergency that followed deflation of the speculative market were seen today by President Hoover. The President said the reports to the Cabinet showed the tide of employment had changed in the right direction." - News dispatch from Washington.
The number of Americans filing first-time claims for unemployment benefits rose unexpectedly for the second straight week to 576,000 last week. Wall Street economists expected a drop to 550,000. No way!? Cornflake economists got it wrong? How can it be?
The total number of jobless benefit recipients was 9.18 million
In the meanwhile the American treasury’s debt-auctions is now approaching 40% of GDP annually which is the number they need to keep just in order to sustain the current levels of banking frauds and economic insanity.

"President Hoover predicted today that the worst effect of the crash upon unemployment will have been passed during the next sixty days." - Washington Dispatch.
The American stock market's index that has gone upwards lately have been marked overvalued by 20-30% by several independent analysts. And the latest jump upwards was, also according to the mainstream economic analysts, marked as bets into future markets i.e. someone(s) is gambling that the actual value is going up.

"While the crash only took place six months ago, I am convinced we have now passed the worst and with continued unity of effort we shall rapidly recover. There is one certainty of the future of a people of the resources, intelligence and character of the people of the United States - that is, prosperity." - President Hoover

A collaboration maybe? Socialists and Libertarians
Since I realized how things really work and how horrid things really are I have felt a sort of kinsmanship with socialists. I’m not taking about the “pretend-left” like labour or social-democrats; those are more of the fascist persuasion. The ones I’m referring to is those that actually believe in socialism.
Socialism is here referring to as a collective name for socialists/communists. Also this is a generalisation and is not always true for either side.
Let me take some examples.
The financial and banking elite are all about fraud and looting.
This is a concept I fully share with socialists. Almost all people that believe in NWO and detest the Bilderberg Group are either libertarians or socialists. The ones hardest criticizing fraudulent banks and finance institutes that, again and again, just take the hard working mans earnings and fill their own pockets, are libertarians. But the ones really loudly demonstrating and angry trash windows and really take to the street, of mainly the same reason, are the socialists. However, where socialists see capitalism and a neoliberal order creating the problems, libertarians see socialism and collectivism as being at fault. We draw different conclusion about the same phenomena, something that is a constant factor throughout.
In a way, neither side is the right here. With laws, constant government interventions, central banks, customs and so forth no one with any knowledge about capitalism can mention this world or any country on the planet as being capitalist. But also, since ownership and administration of the means of production and distribution of goods is not completely in the hands of “the people”, and since we actually have a so so market economy; one cannot really refer to it as socialism either. To name the state of our world ‘fascist’ would be a simple word to use and it is not far from the truth, but that’s not really correct. Statism is probably the best word of choice in lack of a better one. Both fascism and statism sort of implies a closer relationship with socialism then with libertarianism, and I would argue that is correct, although I suspect a socialist might differ.
People are unnecessarily starving and injustice can be found everywhere
Also a statement that both socialists and libertarians can put their hank-cock under. Both sides sees all those horrifying things that goes on in the world where females and gays get stoned to death for expressing themselves, where people starve by the tens of millions, where war rages on despite us being “civilized”, where politicians say one thing and does another, and where there is a huge inequality in regards to money and power. Again, we see the same problem and react to them, but again we also draw different conclusions about the fault and solutions, mainly from the same notions as mentioned above. Here I also think there is an additional dissimilar way of looking at things. Where socialists mainly “think” with their hearts and react instinctively, libertarians rather use rational and a more intellectual approach. Basically a socialist screams while a libertarian shows graphs, a socialist becomes angry whereas a libertarian sighs while trying to explain how things work.
Religion is the opiate of the people
This famous Karl Marx quotation is also something that both sides, generally speaking, agree upon. There are religious folk in both camps, but they are a minority and I would say that this quote is not only in regards to religion per say but rather a forbearing or warning about something that can put a veil over our lives and hide the truth of things. Religion is not necessary malevolent by nature, one can find good things or good thoughts in all religions, but religion might cover or hide science and can even be used as a means to control the populace, something that history shows us. Here I think the agreement might be bigger than above with one small exception; libertarians regard religion as a very collectivistic phenomenon while socialist rather sees religion as a means for the ruling elite to conform and control us.
The repeating recessions will never end with the current system of governing
In a way this topic has already been mentioned, but in our day and age this needs to be addressed a bit more direct. Socialist’s sees overproductions and the constant chase for profits as something that always will create repeated downturns in an economy. Libertarians sort of agree with this, but don’t see the chase for profits as something bad; on the contrary, we regard it as a virtue. However, just as socialists, libertarians acknowledge the profiteers as one of the main reasons for recessions. This is because the mixed system - or statism - that exists doesn’t let the free market roam free. Instead we get certain financial institutes, families or organisations that can take advantage of governments and our societies structure in a way that promotes “dictatorship” (=monopoly) within some sectors. As always libertarians regard governments, laws and the lack of freedom as the main cause of this money- and power-accumulation. If capitalism really got to exist, none of this would happen since there is always competition within the capitalist system. Socialists, however, wants to expand government and hand over everything to the people with a notion of that this would eliminate the worst elements and divide riches in a fair way.
Conclusion and a plead
I believe that socialists don’t know what capitalism really is and that they ignore the most important factor of all; the individual. If they really knew and started to acknowledge individual and intellectual freedom, they would very soon be entitling themselves as libertarians. Of course socialists will probably argue the opposite and maybe people, from either side, won’t agree with my conclusions.
I could go on for a long time but on almost every point I see more likenesses than differences, at least until one starts to talk about the solution. One might argue that similarities can be seen between all forms of ideology, but then you missed the real point. Socialist and libertarians are similar, not only do we see the same problems or that we, in many cases, draw the same conclusion, but we also have the very notion of revolution in our blood. Both want to stick it to the man and fight the power. Of course sometimes having differences in opinions about who the “man” is, but not always, and that is not an issue in regards to what I’m about to suggest.
We should cooperate. Neither side have the manpower or anything else needed to overthrow the current system and neither side can hope of persuade enough people to really make a difference.
So here is my suggestion; we rebel, together. A massive upraising where we throw out all politicians and those in power, then we simply divide the country/ies (maybe even divide continents) in some reasonable way. Socialists can live within their fluffy pink society and libertarians can really test and live in a capitalist country.
The main problem is that both sides will regard the other with great suspicion and both sides see the other as a warmongering side. So how about this; we keep peace and respect for each other until we have developed technology enough so we can conquer other planets and then the only question becomes in which direction our ships should go. A roll of the dice?
Socialism is here referring to as a collective name for socialists/communists. Also this is a generalisation and is not always true for either side.
Let me take some examples.
The financial and banking elite are all about fraud and looting.
This is a concept I fully share with socialists. Almost all people that believe in NWO and detest the Bilderberg Group are either libertarians or socialists. The ones hardest criticizing fraudulent banks and finance institutes that, again and again, just take the hard working mans earnings and fill their own pockets, are libertarians. But the ones really loudly demonstrating and angry trash windows and really take to the street, of mainly the same reason, are the socialists. However, where socialists see capitalism and a neoliberal order creating the problems, libertarians see socialism and collectivism as being at fault. We draw different conclusion about the same phenomena, something that is a constant factor throughout.
In a way, neither side is the right here. With laws, constant government interventions, central banks, customs and so forth no one with any knowledge about capitalism can mention this world or any country on the planet as being capitalist. But also, since ownership and administration of the means of production and distribution of goods is not completely in the hands of “the people”, and since we actually have a so so market economy; one cannot really refer to it as socialism either. To name the state of our world ‘fascist’ would be a simple word to use and it is not far from the truth, but that’s not really correct. Statism is probably the best word of choice in lack of a better one. Both fascism and statism sort of implies a closer relationship with socialism then with libertarianism, and I would argue that is correct, although I suspect a socialist might differ.
People are unnecessarily starving and injustice can be found everywhere
Also a statement that both socialists and libertarians can put their hank-cock under. Both sides sees all those horrifying things that goes on in the world where females and gays get stoned to death for expressing themselves, where people starve by the tens of millions, where war rages on despite us being “civilized”, where politicians say one thing and does another, and where there is a huge inequality in regards to money and power. Again, we see the same problem and react to them, but again we also draw different conclusions about the fault and solutions, mainly from the same notions as mentioned above. Here I also think there is an additional dissimilar way of looking at things. Where socialists mainly “think” with their hearts and react instinctively, libertarians rather use rational and a more intellectual approach. Basically a socialist screams while a libertarian shows graphs, a socialist becomes angry whereas a libertarian sighs while trying to explain how things work.
Religion is the opiate of the people
This famous Karl Marx quotation is also something that both sides, generally speaking, agree upon. There are religious folk in both camps, but they are a minority and I would say that this quote is not only in regards to religion per say but rather a forbearing or warning about something that can put a veil over our lives and hide the truth of things. Religion is not necessary malevolent by nature, one can find good things or good thoughts in all religions, but religion might cover or hide science and can even be used as a means to control the populace, something that history shows us. Here I think the agreement might be bigger than above with one small exception; libertarians regard religion as a very collectivistic phenomenon while socialist rather sees religion as a means for the ruling elite to conform and control us.
The repeating recessions will never end with the current system of governing
In a way this topic has already been mentioned, but in our day and age this needs to be addressed a bit more direct. Socialist’s sees overproductions and the constant chase for profits as something that always will create repeated downturns in an economy. Libertarians sort of agree with this, but don’t see the chase for profits as something bad; on the contrary, we regard it as a virtue. However, just as socialists, libertarians acknowledge the profiteers as one of the main reasons for recessions. This is because the mixed system - or statism - that exists doesn’t let the free market roam free. Instead we get certain financial institutes, families or organisations that can take advantage of governments and our societies structure in a way that promotes “dictatorship” (=monopoly) within some sectors. As always libertarians regard governments, laws and the lack of freedom as the main cause of this money- and power-accumulation. If capitalism really got to exist, none of this would happen since there is always competition within the capitalist system. Socialists, however, wants to expand government and hand over everything to the people with a notion of that this would eliminate the worst elements and divide riches in a fair way.

Why do journalists ignore the depression?
I have pondered on this issue for a long while now since journalists in any normal case jumps on the slightest chance of negative news. To read a newspaper or watch the latest News is a trip into war, pestilence, rapes, students failing in school, murderess storms/hurricanes, global warming, cancer, AIDS, burning cars and lots of other hilarious stuff. Although there sometimes is good news, mainly from the world of celebrities, one really needs to search for it. So how come when history’s worst disaster is lurking around the corner they write and say nothing?
Is there so little knowledge?
Does good news about finance actually sell better?
Are journalists so in the hands of the ruling elite?
Is there some truth behind the New World Order conspiracy?
All of the above?
I tend to lean towards the last one. I know journalists are lazy fools, I also know that journalists, for the most part, tend to write and say that what those in power want. And it is hard to believe that so many Banksters and politicians are so oblivious to what really goes on in the world.
There is no light in the tunnel right now; there are no “green shoots”. All what we are seeing are fictive numbers, pure lies in some cases (read: banks), and highly overvalued stock-markets. Deficits keep growing; money printing machines all over the world are generating more warmth than a nuclear plant, the numbers are still going down and there are more markets about to collapse in the US. And, worst of all, no one, not a single country, has done anything to correct the initial problems that created the depression in the first place. The question isn’t “if” it’s going to get a lot worse, the question is when and how long it will last. As one of those that actually predicted this “recession” and so far haven’t missed a single thing in this mess, I see a very dire future. In other words, when journalists keep quoting some of the worst financial institutes in this world and people that had no clue before or during this crisis, don’t listen.
The worst financial disaster in human history is coming and you better prepare for it.
