Welcome to the North American Union
James Corbett, April 4 2015
The deeper truth is that none of these agreements, pacts, spontaneously arose out of the ether. They are the end result of decades of plans for a merger of national governments into regional entities that themselves will be subsumed behind the scenes by trade pacts, treaties and agreements...
Why We Need to Stop Jeb 2016
James Corbett, April 1 2015
Not only is Jeb a Bohemian Grove member, just like his father and brother, and not only is he a committed CFR-supporting globalist, as discussed above, but his administration is guaranteed to be a virtual carbon copy of his brother's.
How Manipulation Rules the Markets
James Corbett, March 28 2015
What many who are living through this age of jobless recovery know all too well is that these markets are hopelessly manipulated, and that the trading taking place in these markets is subject to the same parlor tricks that define the GDP numbers...
What You Need to Know About The New Development Bank of China
James Corbett, March 24 2015
China is a rising power. The US is in decline. Washington-led organizations like the IMF are no longer reflective of the true economic balance of power in the world, and thus the US is concerned about the rise of counter-institutions like the BRICS, the AIIB...
How to Stop Hillary 2016
James Corbett, March 20 2015
Sadly, the Clinton's political record offers no divergence from the bloodthirsty quest for power that such a body count would suggest. Needless to say, both Bill and Hillary are admitted globalists, committed to "Poppie" Bush's vision of the New World Order.
Big Oil Is Doing Just Fine
James Corbett, March 18 2015
...for those who might have been celebrating the prospect of the oil price plunge taking down a few of the big boys, don't put on your party hats yet. Shell, BP and Total are still going to take a hit from lower prices, but they're likely to beat earnings expectations because of their trading desks.
How the FCC Just Took Over the Internet
James Corbett, March 14 2015
In effect, the keys to the future of the internet have just been handed over to the FCC, not just today, not just this group, but anyone who ever steps into that position. Ever.
China Readies Alternative to SWIFT
James Corbett, March 11 2015
If and when CIPS is launched, the results could be world historical in nature... It's hard to underestimate just how important CIPS will be to making the yuan a major player on the global stage.
Selling Stories For War and Profit
James Corbett, March 7 2015
Such is the way of the world: the military-industrial complex is more than happy to supply the money if you're willing to supply a good story to whip up public outrage against an enemy. This is why it's never too difficult to make money for a conscience-less psychopath.
What color that Dress
Bob Rinear, March 4 2015
In the course of just 10 days, the things that we’ve seen transpire would have taken one’s breath away in virtually any other time in history. But in 2015? Nah, not so much.
Obamacare Tax Penalties Cometh
James Corbett, February 28 2015
Somehow, though, despite the armageddon brought about by this year's 3% budget cut the IRS has still found the time to issue a handy-dandy 21 page guide all about how to correctly work out how many pounds of flesh Obamacare is going to cost you.
Rand Burnishes His Libertarian Credentials
James Corbett, February 25 2015
...more insidious still is what he may be doing in the name of his father's actual libertarian principals. Take his stand against the Federal Reserve, for instance.
A Brief History of Oil Price Manipulation
James Corbett, February 21 2015
...manipulation has been the reason that oil prices were massively over-inflated for the past two decades, and the current plunge is an example of what happens when some of the floors are removed from under that propped-up price.
Make or Break Time for Grexit
James Corbett, February 18 2015
Assuming that this is just a game of chicken, time is not on Greece's side. Greek finances would dry up within a month of the end of the current agreement... But things are not much rosier for the Eurogroup.
Greece At the Crossroads
James Corbett, February 14 2015
The problem here is that debt itself is the problem, but as we all know... the very monetary system upon which our entire economic house of cards is built is based on debt-based central banker funny money.
