Why GM Really went Bankrupt, When They Could Have Been the World's Leading Car Company! / Politics / US Auto's

By: Kevin_Geary

GM is bankrupt, and yet it could have now been the world's leading car company, way ahead of any competition. It had a world-beating, world-leading, unique, battery-operated car called the EV-1. It got 140 miles on a single charge! And yet it deliberately destroyed its own invention!

President Obama's Speech in Cairo, Egypt, Transcript and Video / Politics / Middle East

By: Submissions

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleThank you very much. Good afternoon. I am honored to be in the timeless city of Cairo, and to be hosted by two remarkable institutions. For over a thousand years, Al-Azhar has stood as a beacon of Islamic learning; and for over a century, Cairo University has been a source of Egypt's advancement. And together, you represent the harmony between tradition and progress. I'm grateful for your hospitality, and the hospitality of the people of Egypt. And I'm also proud to carry with me the goodwill of the American people, and a greeting of peace from Muslim communities in my country: Assalaamu alaykum. (Applause.)

Fun to watch that baby smoke and burn!  Pictures of barbeque ribs, fresh pork sausage, and those luscious heavily loaded pork sandwiches.  Of course there remains the tea, beans, and home made fresh cut Idaho fries.  That’s a real depiction of the American lifestyle, huh?  Freedom to stuff our stomachs and enjoy our time off as we please.

Frankenstein Corporations Avoiding Liability / Politics / US Politics

By: Global_Research

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleRalph Nader writes: Once upon a time early in the 19th century, corporations came into existence by state legislatures approving charters, which were granted for a limited period of time and for limited purposes. These corporations - producing textiles and other products in New England - raised capital in part because their investors had limited liability. That meant they could not lose any more than their investment if things went wrong.

The Socialist Bailout of Wall Street / Politics / Credit Crisis Bailouts

By: LewRockwell

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleJacob G. Hornberger writes: The massive federal bailout of U.S. financial firms reflects everything that’s wrong with the economic system of welfare and interventionism under which the United States has operated since at least the 1930s. There are critically important lessons in the bailout that the American people ignore at their peril. While most politicians and mainstream pundits are viewing the bailout as a necessary “reform,” it is imperative that we place this “reform” in a much wider and deeper context. In doing so, we need to return to first principles.

True Story of the Bilderberg Group and What They May Be Planning Now / Politics / Global Financial System

By: Stephen_Lendman

Diamond Rated - Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleFor over 14 years, Daniel Estulin has investigated and researched the Bilderberg Group's far-reaching influence on business and finance, global politics, war and peace, and control of the world's resources and its money. His book, "The True Story of the Bilderberg Group," was published in 2005 and is now updated in a new 2009 edition. He states that in 1954, "the most powerful men in the world met for the first time" in Oosterbeek, Netherlands, "debated the future of the world," and decided to meet annually in secret. They called themselves the Bilderberg Group with a membership representing a who's who of world power elites, mostly from America, Canada, and Western Europe.

Panarchism, Liberty of the Governed from Government / Politics / US Politics

By: LewRockwell

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleMichael S. Rozeff writes: Panarchism is a new political philosophy that builds upon and extends the core concept of consent of the governed, which goes back primarily to John Locke. Consent of the governed is a concept that permeated revolutionary America. It appears in Article 6 of the Virginia Bill of Rights. It appears in the Essex Result. Benjamin Franklin wrote "In free governments the rulers are the servants and the people their superiors and sovereigns." The Declaration of Independence asserts that "Governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed."

Did Bernanke and Paulson Commit Bank Fraud? / Politics / Credit Crisis Bailouts

By: Global_Research

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleThomas R. Eddlem writes: New revelations from the New York State Attorney General’s office have all but proven that Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke and former Treasury Secretary Hank Paulson committed bank fraud crimes in the case of the Merrill Lynch/Bank of America merger that took place last year. New York State Attorney General Andrew M. Cuomo revealed that Paulson and Bernanke illegally suppressed adverse financial data on the merger and threatened to replace the Bank of America CEO and board of directors if the company backed out of the Merrill Lynch merger. “Secretary Paulson has informed us that he made the threat at the request of Chairman Bernanke,” Cuomo wrote in an April 23 letter to Congress.

MP's Non-Existant Mortgage Fraud, Where are the Police? / Politics / UK Politics

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleA number of MP's have claimed thousands in tax payer monies for mortgages that do not exist. Whilst virtually all MP's have hidden behind the "within the rules" mantra as to why they defrauded the tax payers "LEGALLY", however claiming monies for non existent mortgages brings the matter into criminal law which supercedes all other law with the only exception being the Queen as the head of state.

Capitalism and the Internet, the Market as Router / Politics / US Politics

By: LewRockwell

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleThomas M. Schmidt wries: The Internet, that glorious interconnection of separate networks, grew out of the ARPAnet, a network designed to remain operable in the case of a nuclear war. Traditional networks maintained a fixed central hub through which traffic might be directed; loss of these central hubs would lead to the collapse of the network. In contrast, internet protocols were designed with the notion of dynamically-built data paths, with specialized machines called routers finding connections to get data from place A to place B. In brief, the Internet was designed to route around failure; if the direct route from New York to Boston were blocked, a router might send data through Chicago and Denver first, with decisions on the route taken being made in a largely decentralized fashion.

Can America be Fixed? / Politics / US Politics

By: Global_Research

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleJohn Kozy writes: “Washington tends to enforce a foolish consistency. If you are someone of some prominence whose views are known publicly, then everything you have ever said in the past tends to be projected forward and everything you say today is projected backward. Any discrepancy potentially brings charges of flip-flopping or hypocrisy or selling-out or whatever. Certainly, these charges are valid in many cases, but the simple possibility that circumstances have changed or that experience or new evidence has caused one to change one’s mind seems never to be seriously entertained. The result is to force people to stick with positions they know are wrong because they less fear being foolishly consistent than being attacked for flip-flopping.” (Bruce Barlett),

Obama Should Reject Bailout of California to Prevent Bond Market Crash / Politics / Credit Crisis Bailouts

By: Peter_Schiff

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleDuring the height of New York City's financial crisis in the 1970's, President Gerald Ford had the good sense to turn down Mayor Abe Beame's request for a federal bailout. The refusal prompted the famous New York Post headline, "Ford to City: Drop Dead." More than 30 years later, as California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger makes a similar plea to Washington, I hope President Obama will show similar restraint. Unfortunately, given Obama's recent string of unwise economic decisions, it's hard to imagine that his judgment will suddenly improve.

The Age of Financial Reform or Plunder without End? / Politics / Credit Crisis 2009

By: Global_Research

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleDanny Schechter writes: New York, New York: It is almost axiomatic to argue that renewal comes out of chaos. And reform and change are born in crisis.

The financial meltdown of 1907 led to the formation of the Federal Reserve Bank. The Crash of ’29 ushered in the New Deal, the FDIC, the SEC, and The Glass Steagall Act etc. Even the disaster at Enron permitted new statutes requiring more transparency like Sarbanes Oxley. And now this greatest of great recessions is leading to a new wave of financial regulation. The public is already said to believe recovery is just around the next corner.

It is rare because not one political reporter or commentator, those who fill tombstones of column inches and dominate broadcast journalism, revealed a shred of this scandal. It was left to a public relations man to sell the "leak." Why?
