“A tiny biotech controls agricultural technology that could end food shortages forever… And, in the process, render Monsanto GMOs obsolete. “This development stands to make early investors 181 times their money in just a few years. “It’s why Citigroup, Wells Fargo, and other financial powerhouses have teamed up to launch the little company that’s responsible for all of it. “And you can get in on the action, too. But time’s running out… “Picture editing a document on your computer… You see a phrase that you don’t like, so you highlight and delete it. “Well, this analogy is the easiest way to explain how the technology of ...

Evidence points to Bitcoin being an NSA engineered psyop to roll out one-world digital currency

Natural News I’m going to assume the readers who make it to this article are well informed enough that I don’t have to go into the history of the global money changers and their desire for a one world currency. (If you don’t yet understand the goal of the globalist banking empire and the coming engineered collapse of the fiat currency system, you’re already about 5,000 posts behind the curve.) With that as a starting point, it’s now becoming increasingly evident that Bitcoin may be a creation of the NSA and was rolled out as a “normalization” experiment to get the public familiar with digital currency. Once this is established, the world’s fiat ...

Russia's Blockchain Revolution

Moscow Times... intellinews.com Russia has gone a bit blockchain bonkers. President Vladimir Putin has been looking for something for Russia to be good at for a while, but hasn’t had much luck so far. Now it’s the secure data-transfer technolgy’s turn and here Putin actually has a very good chance of making a difference. Back in 2006, Putin gave a speech in which he said: “Russia’s greatest asset is not oil and gas, but its people. Russia’s human capital is its most valuable resource.” And given Russia is the country that put the first man into space while working under a totalitarian regime that was run on central planning lines, he probably has a ...

PressTV... Afghanistan and Uzbekistan have signed an agreement to extend a railway between the two countries which could give Uzbekistan a strategic access to the Persian Gulf through Iran. The agreement over the project – which would be within the framework of the Trans-Afghan Transport Corridor that has been in the pipeline for over 12 years – was signed in Uzbekistan’s capital Tashkent on Thursday by Uzbek President Shavkat Mirziyoyev and his Afghan counterpart Mohammad Ashraf Ghani. The plan is to construct a new railway with a total length of above 1,000 kilometers from Mazar-e-Sharif in Afghanistan’s northern province of Balkh and to the western city of Herat ...

Neo-Nazis are also profiting from bitcoin's massive boom

Cryptocurrency bitcoin has shot up massively in value over the last few days, currently sitting at $15,338. That's profited anyone who holds the cyrptocurrency — including neo-Nazis forced to accept anonymous donations in bitcoin after being banned from legitimate fundraising services. Pro-Nazi publisher Counter Currents and neo-Nazi internet troll Andrew "weev" Auernheimer have raised thousands of dollars in bitcoin. The news will do little to counter bitcoin's reputation as a currency for criminals and other undesirable players. The massive boom in the value of bitcoin has ended up profiting neo-Nazis who have taken thousands of dollars in donations, ...

China’s banking system risks facing crisis: IMF

PressTV... The IMF warns of brewing risks in China’s banking system as capital buffers are needed to beef up protection against possible financial crises. (File photo) The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has claimed that China risks facing a growing debt-dependency in its banking system, urging Beijing to increase its capital buffers to protect against a possible “financial crisis.” The Washington-based organization said in a report on Thursday that reforms by Beijing over the past five years had not gone far enough as financial credit in the world’s second-biggest economy had risen high by international standards, and personal debt had also increased in the same ...

Bitcoin On Fire: Approaching $14K

I'm sure a pullback is due at some point, but this is surpassing my most optimistic expectations. It's gone up about 15% in 24 hours, which was already a price from which a retrace would have been normal and expected. Next week, the CME is set to start trading "Bitcoin Futures" which are to be settled in cash, something I would equate to simply a betting house for what the real bitcoin price will be, and likely being implemented solely for the purpose of attempting to suppress the true bitcoin supply/demand price. They might as well be "futures" trading on daily temperature highs for some random US city. It would be just as legitimate. I am now wondering if ...

Plunder Capitalism

I deplore the tax cut that has passed Congress. It is not an economic policy tax cut, and it has nothing whatsoever to do with supply-side economics. The entire purpose is to raise equity prices by providing equity owners with more capital gains and dividends. In other words, it is legislation that makes equity owners richer, thus further polarizing society into a vast arena of poverty and near-poverty and the One Percent, or more precisely a fraction of the One Percent wallowing in billions of dollars. Unless our rulers can continue to control the explanations, the tax cut edges us closer to revolution resulting from complete distrust of government. The current tax legislation drops ...

Dark Money Will Cause Hyperinflation – Rob Kirby By Greg Hunter On November 26, 2017 In Market Analysis 159 Comments By Greg Hunter’s USAWatchdog.com (Early Sunday Release) Macroeconomic analyst Rob Kirby says there is enough so-called “Dark Money” already out there to cause hyperinflation. Kirby explains, “The Saint Louis Fed keeps track of the monetary aggregates, and they tell us the money supply is “X.” My view of reliability of that data reporting–I think it’s all bogus because they are not measuring or counting how many dollars would be contained in an entity like the Exchange Stabilization Fund (ESF) where it’s “Dark ...

There were specific economic decisions that created the Greek crisis. It needn’t have happened if it weren’t deemed useful by the powers-that-be in Europe. The crisis was real, but it was largely manufactured by people who were creating distractions from Europe’s real problems. ATHENS, GREECE — Greek-born economist Yanis Varoufakis, who served as finance minister of the SYRIZA-led Greek government from its election in January 2015 until July 2015, has regularly been afforded rockstar status by the international mainstream media and by such personalities as Noam Chomsky and Julian Assange. In the aftermath of Greece’s July 2015 referendum, in which voters ...

The GOP Tax Bill: Fuggedaboutit!

The GOP has become so politically desperate that they might as well enact a two-word statute and be done with it. It would simply read: Tax Bill! Actually, that’s not far from where they are in the great scheme of things. The Senate Finance Committee’s bill is a dog’s breakfast of K-Street/Wall Street pleasing tax cuts, narrowly focused revenue raisers that will be subject to withering attack on the Senate floor, nonsensical vote-driven compromises and outrageous fiscal gimmicks – the most blatant of which is the sun-setting of every single individual tax provision after 2025. This latter trick is designed to shoehorn the revenue loss into the $1.5 trillion 10-year ...

Amazon seller loses $400,000 in sales to a rival's attack CNBC Ari Levy 2 hrs ago You can buy this private island less than an hour from NYC. But it isn't cheap. David Damavandi should be an Amazon success story. Using the company's marketplace, the 31-year-old entrepreneur built a skin care business to more than $10 million in annual revenue in seven years, thanks in large part to having the most popular facial steamer on Amazon.com. But rather than gearing up for Cyber Monday and a potential blockbuster holiday season, Damavandi's Los Angeles company, Pure Daily Care, is in crisis. For the bulk of 2017, he says, he's been under assault by a rival brand named ...

But there is no Financial Crisis. These are the boom times. Given Americans’ ceaseless urge to borrow and spend, household debt in the third quarter surged by $610 billion, or 5%, from the third quarter last year, to a new record of $13 trillion, according to the New York Fed. If the word “surged” appears a lot, it’s because that’s the kind of debt environment we now have: Mortgage debt surged 4.2% year-over-year, to $9.19 trillion, still shy of the all-time record of $10 trillion in 2008 before it all collapsed. Student loans surged by 6.25% year-over-year to a record of $1.36 trillion. Credit card debt surged 8% to $810 billion. “Other” surged 5.4% ...

It should come as little surprise to see a new report detailing how the slush fund Clinton Foundation is now under severe financial strain after the world’s largest corporations are ending their contributions to the “charity.” And why would anyone in their right mind give a cent to the foundation which was merely a money laundering operation built on the Clinton’s influence and access in Washington DC. Now that the presidential loser Hillary Clinton, is not sitting in the White House, the Clinton Foundation has no service to offer its “contributors.” A new report by the International ...

"Janet Yellen Powell Puts" On Some Pants And A Tie

It can’t get any worse than this. Jerome Powell is a Wall Street-coddling Keynesian and Washington lifer who passes for a Janet Yellen replica – that is, save for his tie and trousers and his as yet underdeveloped capacity to whine pedantically. During his years on the Fed since May 2012, Powell has voted approximately 44 times to drastically falsify interest rates and to recklessly and fraudulently monetize trillions of the public debt. That is, Powell has been all-in for a destructive central banking regime that is literally asphyxiating capitalist prosperity in America. We will get to the latter in more detail momentarily, but just consider the plight of bank account savers ...

The new field, dubbed Ixachi-1, is located in the eastern state of Veracruz near existing Pemex infrastructure, meaning it can be tapped “relatively soon, and at low costs,” Pena Nieto said. The estimated volume makes it “the largest onshore find the company has made in the past 15 years,” he said to applause from invitees at an event in the central state of Hidalgo. The field’s proven, probable and possible ...

President Trump nominates Jerome Powell for Fed chairman President urges the Senate to swiftly confirm Powell to replace Janet Yellen when her term ends in February. By nominating Jerome Powell as chairman of the Federal Reserve, President Trump is elevating a nominal Republican but also an Obama administration appointee to the chairmanship of our nation’s central bank. Many consider the chairmanship to be the second-most powerful position in the U.S. government. This is not the first time something similar has happened. In 2006 President George W. Bush appointed Ben Bernanke, also a nominal Republican at the time, who on leaving the Federal Reserve registered as a Democrat. No ...
