We're on an Apollo 13 mission: Gen Kranz the Flight Director at the time said,"When bad things happen, we just calmly laid out all the options and failure was not one of them". Tough and competent, "we are forever accountable for what we do or fail to do. We will never take anything for granted. We will never fall short of our knowledge or our skills".

Market Bubbles
We just might be getting use to this game, as the inflated rise of any market pumping up and up till it finds a pin which someone starts to sell. Bubbles, it's actually a cute term, we loved them as kids and even more fond of them as a trader, nothing but money until. You just have to know when to get out and that's any one's speculation which has become such a complete science and your now an MIT graduate to crunch the numbers, utter nonsense.
Once again a man-made board of Monopoly that is so obvious where you can become a better player before the music stops. Just like Nero played his lyre and singing while the city of Rome burned. The Musicians of the RMS Titanic all perished with the ship when it sank in 1912. They played music, intending to calm the passengers, for as long as they possibly could and all went down with the ship, all were recognized for their heroism. Now that right there is real unlike today's market, let's have a look.
BEIJING—China's factory activity lost ground in February, as a key gauge of manufacturing slipped to a seven-month low, signaling further economic weakness and rattling markets. Also, a cut in printing money was announced just like the States. The Hang Seng was down 271 pts. And as for Russia right now a weak ruble, banking 'clean -up' is weighing things down, talk of recession looming.
Japan’s national debt exceeded 1,000 trillion yen, (1 Quadrillion that's a first anywhere) or $10.46 trillion. It’s now well above 200% of the country’s GDP and is larger than that of Germany, France and the UK combined. Now a lot of this is contributed to more imports of energy, remember Japan has shut down its nuclear facilities because of Fukushima which is a disaster for the world, but your not supposed to know that. (as Rome burned) The Nikkei was down 318 pts.
Wow, that does not sound good for Asia, so how on Earth is this global stock market boom inflating so? Europe showing no growth, ah yes the Federal Reserve printing machine is wearing out bearings! Funny money sent to the rescue inflating stocks that are not showing growth from within, just a play on the tons of hot money being pumped into the market bubble. We don't know the true amount the Feds' are printing you can't audit the Fed and by the way, the board of The Fed exists of 5 chairs right now and 2 are empty, 5 people make that decision. (The Musicians of the RMS Titanic)
It's true though the market is a screamer like a rocket and money was made so that ain't bad. So a Thank You is in order to The Fed but if things go south that money is pinned on the backs of Americans' for generations. I mean you think The 5 are going to bail us out? They don't own that money people get slaved to it, we bailed out the banks and actually you can thank future generations of Americans' if this doesn't go well. To bad, you won't be able to do it personally. Will have to leave a message in a bottle, kind of like a time capsule, saying sorry man we got carried away, hope you understand we were high on a bubble.
Hey Warren, what should be done to those who need to be bailed out after a bubble?

NULLIFICATION
![]() |
Nice work Thomas |
From: Tenth Amendment Center
For anyone unfamiliar with the concept of state nullification, it was the idea expressed by then sitting vice president Thomas Jefferson when he authored what came to be known as the Kentucky Resolutions of 1798. The resolutions made the case that the federal government is a creature of the states and that states have the authority to judge the constitutionality of the federal government’s laws and decrees. He also argued that states should refuse to enforce laws which they deem unconstitutional.
Nullification carries with it the force of the state or local law. It cannot be legally repealed by Congress without amending the U.S. Constitution. It cannot be lawfully abolished by an executive order. It cannot be overruled by the Supreme Court if the people in the state reject the Court’s opinion. It is the people of a state or local community asserting their rights, acting as a political society in its highest sovereign capacity. It is the moderate, middle way that wisely avoids harsh remedies like secession on the one hand and slavish, unlimited submission on the other. (Full Article)
Back in 2012, 40 states petitioned to secede from the US Government, this proceeded by a petition to “strip the citizenship” of those who have petitioned for secession and another calling for their deportation. The Texas petition, for example, has more than 80,000 signatures. The original Louisiana petition has topped 30,000. Florida has also crossed the threshold. Though the numbers keep climbing, the signatures for all 40 states now total at least 533,000.
What to do:
Nullification is not secession or insurrection, but neither is it unconditional or unlimited submission. Nullification is not something that requires any decision, statement or action from any branch of the federal government. Nullification is not the result of obtaining a favorable court ruling. Nullification is not the petitioning of the federal government to start doing or to stop doing anything. Nullification doesn't depend on any federal law being repealed. Nullification does not require permission from any person or institution outside of one’s own state.
Nullification is any act or set of acts, which has as its end result, a particular federal law being rendered null and void, or just plain unenforceable in your area.
OK this is a drastic situation for the population of America as a whole have had enough of our government and most countries around the world hate The United States, hell I did not create this hatred nor did any other good citizen of America. This documentary you're about to watch covers just what can we do and what is already being done. The word NULLIFICATION is a very powerful word in The United States Constitution. Take the time to watch this documentary, this is a revolution that has begun without guns for it's a war fought by suits and briefcases trying to change The Constitution.

Turn it Off!
Nothing in the Constitution requires a state to help the feds violate your rights. The new NSA data center in Utah requires 1.7 million gallons of water every single day to operate. Billions of 4th Amendment violations require massive supercomputers and the water to cool them. Take these steps to support the 4th Amendment in your state and push back against NSA Spying. Nullification can create a meltdown.

TPP |
They also discuss the naked pork bun running London and what to expect for the housing bubble if China does a crackdown on corruption. In the second half, Max interviews Linda Kaucher, of Stop TTIP, about the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) as a plan for permanent neoliberalism and regulatory harmonization. There has been criticism and protest of the negotiations from global health experts, internet freedom activists, environmentalists, organized labor, advocacy groups and elected officials, in large part due to the secrecy of the negotiations, the expansive scope of the agreement, and controversial clauses in the drafts leaked to the public. (Intellectual Property TPP)
TPP: Developments in domestic and international intellectual property (mind that phrase) policy, intellectual property administration and registration systems education and awareness relating to intellectual property, intellectual property issues relevant to:
small and medium-sized enterprises science, technology & innovation activities which may include generation, transfer and dissemination of technology.
Policies involving the use of intellectual property for research, innovation and economic growth.
Under the deal, ‘trade irritants’ such as biased national laws will be eradicated via an arbitration panel, which will judge ONLY on free trade criteria. Max notes that David Cameron seems to be benchmarking UK policy against US disasters. "Man the lifeboats."
United States Senator Ron Wyden (D-OR) asserted, "The majority of Congress is being kept in the dark as to the substance of the TPP negotiations, while representatives of U.S. corporations—like Halliburton, Chevron, PHRMA, Comcast, and the Motion Picture Association of America—are being consulted and made privy to details of the agreement. More than two months after receiving the proper security credentials, my staff is still barred from viewing the details of the proposals that USTR is advancing. We hear that the process by which TPP is being negotiated has been a model of transparency. I disagree with that statement."
A number of United States Congresspeople, including Senator Bernard Sanders and Representatives Henry Waxman, Sander M. Levin, John Conyers, Jim McDermott, John Lewis, Pete Stark, Charles B. Rangel, Earl Blumenauer, and Lloyd Doggett, have expressed concerns about the effect the TPP requirements would have on access to medicine. In particular, they are concerned that the TPP focuses on protecting intellectual property to the detriment of efforts to provide access to affordable medicine. US corporations are hoping to weaken Pharmac's ability to get inexpensive, generic medicines by forcing New Zealand to pay for brand name drugs. Doctors and organizations like Medicins Sans Frontieres have also expressed concern. The New Zealand Government denies the claims, Trade Negotiations Minister Tim Groser saying opponents of the deal are "fools" who are "trying to wreck this agreement".
Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass) and Rep. Alan Grayson (D-Fla.) have criticized the Obama administration's secrecy policies on the Trans-Pacific Pact.
