The Horrors Of The Carbon Trade Derivatives Beast

There are many ways of fixing things. Using the right tools is important.  The international bankers have chosen a very nasty tool for fixing both global warming and dealing with the Hubbert Oil Peak: wild derivative futures markets modeled on the goofy OTC —CDS market!  The thing that just destroyed international banking.  We mustn’t forget [...]

FDIC Is Broken

The FDIC is running out of insurance money for depositors.  To fund future bank closings, the FDIC is fast-forwarding the fees due to it from solvent banks.  I know that my own bank is grousing about this.  The oldest credit union in America was set up in the Great Depression in Albany, NY, to provide [...]

Vaccination News Is Very Good

When it comes to scientific or biological news, I am a huge fan of the better parts of the mainstream media such as the NYT, for example.  Or Scientific American, National Geographic, etc: all are excellent sources of information.  People have attacked me here for going to reliable sources for information while they, themselves, go [...]

Attack Iran Plans Go Wry Thanks To Afghanistan Disasters

The UN is having its annual meetings and it is very odd how the US continues to pretend to be the power center while China increasingly calls all the shots.  Afghanistan is also in the news with the release of a report that was not classified but was not for news consumption.  This report from [...]
