11:32 am
we've got the future covered. i'm stacy herbert this is the kaiser report gold saluting the world economy breakdown sneezy cold war max that's our first headline there gold gives a standing ovation for the obama boehner masterpiece of political theater so we've seen in america the political kooky theater getting crazier and crazier but this is that the important thing is that how gold responded and obviously always the deal is going to be done right we knew that but we have always told everybody that gold is responding to this collapse in american empire yes it is responding it's responding to the collapse and morning it's
11:33 am
a response to the collapse and the american empire exactly they had a great run after world war two but now it's one of course and now it's all falling apart and all the satellites that rely on the u.s. for their largest all those military contractors and client states and puppet states i got all that free money from a corrupt talker see in america they're all being choked and then you want to throw money buying gold and silver the price keeps going higher and this will continue because no amount of growth will support this amount of debt it's impossible to rap about a billion possible there's five hundred trillion in debt out there in the stores ten planets worth of earthlings slaving away twenty four seven will never be paid back and the other important thing to note here max is i really believe that this political theater is at this point the only thing keeping the u.s. dollar afloat it used to be backed by gold and then it was backed by oil and i guess the industry and productivity of americans now all those other things are
11:34 am
gone and all you have is political this. theater to make people think that there's actually something there and well there you know they're stalling because they're hoping that at some point growth kicks in but you hit peak saturation of debt in two thousand and seven and no amount of accounting fraud or trickery or bernie made off like all of these gaming can now rejigger the board so that you've got any amount of growth to satisfy this amount of debt so you're talking about debt collapse all over the world is a global debt a lump that's what we're talking about but speaking of wacko insane you know political actors political leaders. and alice's indebt rao hints of emerging economy crises so here's reuters they look at the us and this silly brinksmanship in the crazy fighting that goes on over nothing debt default a ratings downgrade political deadlock such terms once associated primarily with
11:35 am
the developing world now abound in the mighty united states i would say it was the once mighty united states and they interview a policy a foreign policy expert who says queer attend a lot of meetings with latin americans and we used to complain to them about the problems they have and now they like to say to us that sounds just like the us right well look at countries like brazil for example they've got out from underneath the i.m.f. oh pression economic pressure and the economy is doing great but the us how are they going to escape financial oppression from the banking terrorists how are they going to scale the likes of a lloyd blankfein or a jamie diamond how are they going to get out from underneath that well the other thing that you saw with these military dictatorships throughout latin america the banana republics is the reason why they were banana republics is the chiquita banana company right they were actually corporate occupied. none of the countries of latin america had anything to do with running their country for real which left
11:36 am
them just with play acting like a crazy prince where the real country and all the economy and all the wealth was taken by kita and other corporations like coca-cola so there was nothing there but for them to pretend that they were ruling the country and they acted very crazy you know the united fruit i believe was what originally when they moved in and they occupied those social merican a latin american countries and they got such a brand exposure to such toxic militarization of those economies and the slaughter of folks and killing of union members and they had to rebrand us to cuba were to cuba we kill less union organizers. to vote. using an organization of going to be slaughtered well let's look at these videos to see what america might look like the next threat the next time the deficit ceiling is hit here's india's parliament you see a nice brawl there let's turn to the punjab parliament. and then just for a little diversity here max we're going to turn to afghanistan and here's two women
11:37 am
busting it out in the floor of the afghan parliament so i think this is the next step the tea party female mother sling with michele bachmann and the other sharks and once again with the glasses i'll talk a minute sarah palin to get those two in the mud mud rustling for a vote so i'd vote for ok let's move on to some serious stuff here let's talk about what is going on for the banana republic is ation of america and the biggest corporate occupier is the banks and this is our headline here max the fed bought it so this is from senator bernie sanders website he was responsible for inserting into the wall street reform bill last year a clause which demanded one time audit of the fed and that is out and what they discovered is that the federal reserve lent out emergency programs a total of sixteen trillion dollars to u.s. banks foreign banks and corporations like g.e.
11:38 am
and according to the report however there are two very important points here the fed provided conflict of interest waivers to employees and private contractors so they could keep investments in the financial firms that they were bailing out they mentioned jamie dimon as benefiting from this clause they sat on the board of new york fed and bailed out j.p. morgan and then the fed the investigation also revealed that the fed outsourced most of its emergency lending programs to private contractors many of which also were recipients of extremely low interest and then secret loans jamie diamond dropped on his head as a kid or what i mean here's a guy who's given billions of dollars total exemption from accountability and then he loses that became a few more billion dollars i mean he makes a few bucks ok that's true but compared to like a real player out there somebody like an oligarch and one of these other countries he's a pusher. help of the girl must be like to live you know you're right you're buying
11:39 am
his presentation this is it remember it's theater max and the theater he's claiming to only make a few billion a year and he's just a poor schmuck who doesn't know what he's doing he's trying his hardest but in fact these guys own everything they've taken control of everything he could have he could be worth five trillion who knows because it's a black hole of not accountability j.p. morgan is the biggest fed bank and they're pretending they outsourced it but the fed is j.p. morgan so the pretending they go we outsource the these emergency lending programs to j.p. morgan and they're having to say they outsource it to j.p. morgan to hide the fact that the fed is j.p. morgan ok so bernie sanders got one time or that's a yes and there's no more oil coming there's no more oil to come and in the one time water we discovered that there was massive fraud on wall street and then we got wind driven morgan the whole group massive fraud ok continuing on this theme of profits you brought up corporate profits a boom in corporate profits a bust in jobs wages so now that we're officially eighteen months out of recession
11:40 am
try to tell that. you remember this is the banana republic and this is something like papa doc would have told us or or could alfie you know these are the same sort of statement they would make yeah we're out of recession anyway all of the alleged growth that has happened only one percent of it has gone to wages and salaries only one percent of that growth is spent fifteen percent fifty percent and twenty five percent in the previous three recessions by contrast corporate profits accounted for eighty eight percent of the growth so this is clear banana republic and as i'm going along percent of trickle down to prison guards. and the corporate profits of course they are staying within the corporate fear if you will because that one two percent of the top elite are have engineered essentially a sluice way directly from the fed and wall street into their pocket bypassing the general population and again you have the bifurcation of society this class war
11:41 am
developing and of the beautiful part about it is that people in america are so drugged up on thorazine other anti-psychotic drugs i don't even know this you know they also mentioned this article that corporations have one point nine trillion dollars in cash but are reluctant to spend it and they speak to the caterpillar c.e.o. doug over how hellman and he said the reason they're not spending is lack of clarity on us deficit reduction plan trade policy regulation much needed tax reform blah blah blah but the important thing here he says the absence of a long term plan to improve the country's deteriorating infrastructure does not create an environment that provides our customers with confidence to invest so here's the c.e.o. of caterpillar who is you know these are one of the guys involved with the business roundtable involved with the american chamber of commerce that lobby to make sure that people are so stupid that they associate any sort of plan or action on behalf of the the citizen that's marxist and socialism so here they've they've created
11:42 am
this environment where you have the lack of deeded like a bombed out infrastructure that looks worse than any morocco or any up north african country looks worse than that plus they've got a lot of those caterpillar tractors in places like running over folks like rachel corrie so that's deflecting their attention from doing anything positive for their own country as well yeah but let's talk about the u.s. here because this is we're talking about the important thing is the u.s. is collapsing and there are a lot of political things that they do all over the world but the fact is america itself is looking like a big giant ghetto and wherever you go oh that ghetto special of america where there is probably stronger ghettos chicago did. roy probst on this is saying group of corporations caterpillar is a enabling jennifer cation in palestine same thing in detroit because you got a minority of c.e.o.'s who take all that money from the government put it in their pockets and they claim that while there's a lot of infrastructure there to spread around amongst the population because they're responsible for pool and infrastructure and building infrastructure because
11:43 am
we're talking about themselves how can the people simply construe as a representative democracy we've got in florida so you are still in mourning wholesale and claiming that the compost we distributed because of the money. and finally max for the entire picture of a banana republic so they would been fighting over this deficit right eleven stunning facts about america's prisons prisons cost america six hundred billion dollars per year compare that to medicare is four hundred fifty two billion per year medicaid which is medical care for poor people that's less than two hundred seventy five billion so us prisons cost six hundred billion to the taxpayer between eighty seven and two thousand and seven the national prison population trickled seven hundred thirty four out of every one hundred thousand americans are behind bars in the us far and away the highest number in the world and typically parole programs cost taxpayers seven dollars and forty seven cents per day per day while
11:44 am
prisons cost seventy dollars and ninety five cents per day per inmate nationwide which is more than the minimum wage so taxpayers are there willing to lock up a huge percentage of the population one in nine black men between the ages of twenty and thirty four are in prison they're willing to spend more than the minimum wage to keep these guys in prison. in fact as the next election cycle coming up the only way to get in on that ticket on the republican party is a promise to lock up more so more cost this is never an issue that's ever raised as a way to lower the deficit and other building more and more persons and what equipment of the used to build the prisons oh caterpillar. i guess there are available to build prisons but not bridges maybe that's recent explains their statement that you need more infrastructure their infrastructure could be prisons or prison or slave labor well that's a stock i'm going to have to be trying with both hands thanks deborah thanks so
11:45 am
much thank you max don't go away what are coming why so stay right there. what makes a big splash in the world of high tech business what turns events science into i can't seem products we don't understand. easy steps he followed russian leaders to each of bidders abroad and their big breakthrough back. sunlight onslaught on technology update here. we've got the future coverage.
11:46 am
if. welcome back to the kaiser report max kaiser time now to go up to canada and speaker stefan molyneux of the freedom main radio dot com stuff on a welcome back to the kaiser report thanks max great to be here so stuff our knowledge of the u.s. deficit thinner the absurd there on the brink of chaos every leader of the free world is talking about more debt. ceiling and euro tarp plus the semantic games of the u.s. what is going on well china says or at least a private chinese rating agency says or makes the argument that the u.s.
11:47 am
has already defaulted through devaluing of the u.s. against other currencies and that has been enormous and significant just over the past ten years the u.s. dollar has lost forty percent or more the dow in its real returns since new year's day two thousand has lost almost thirty four percent and so what's happened is a devaluing of the dollar against other currencies that as we know is a result of two things which are closely related to u.s. debt the first is keeping interest rates artificially low and the second is just printing money and how is the fed printing money but as we all know they're aiming to buy or have bought over two trillion dollars of u.s. debt and they become pretty much the entire holder of the u.s. mortgage industry and so if you're paying your visa with your master card it's pretty clear that you have already shown that you're unable to pay your debts that the u.s. is functionally intifadah just has these federal reserve tricks and shenanigans to prop up at least a little longer and so what everybody's talking about are minor tweaks you know it's really as they say arranging the deck to chairs on the titanic and long after the iceberg was hit now you talk about the rise of the debt versus growth and going
11:48 am
back a few decades the amount of debt that was increased would generate some appreciable growth in g.d.p. going back thirty or thirty five years you had a dollar of debt you got a dollar's worth of g.d.p. growth. and then as the economy began to suffer from overindebtedness and as the banks started to crowd their way into the general economy of the real economy it took seven or eight dollars of debt to create one dollar video pay and then iraq two thousand and seven two thousand and eight you had this debt saturation level where no amount of debt creation will ever create another unit of growth because you can't you know put ten pounds of garbage into a five pound garbage bag they just can't absorb more debt so this message seems pretty clear if you have absorbed more debt so why does policymakers insist on attacking this problem like i'm talking about you know paul krugman of the new york times famously his solution is to add more debt how why they keep talking about it
11:49 am
no more room no more pep well look expecting sane fiscal policy out of the federal reserve and state sponsored state supported economists like paul krugman is like expecting gambling addicts to suddenly walk away from the table what is the only solution that the government has when it faces the crisis caused by its own corruption and it ends and thievery double down baby double down double down that's all it can do is continue to do the same thing now i think it's important to remember that the political class like the ruling on the darks they're fine i mean they've got their holdings probably in swiss francs in gold and they're all set they can do whatever they want it's the average person and particularly the poor person the retired person who is going to face the real calamity when this mess hits the fan so they they're sort of secure they've got their escape hatch they've got their golden parachutes everybody out so they can continue to mess around without any particular fear of their own finances going in the toilet are you imagine double down double down and i mean they got me thinking of the martin gal
11:50 am
betting system are you familiar with the martin del betting system i am not ok the martin betting system is the gambling system where you go to the roulette wheel and you bet on red if you lose you double up. and if you lose again you double up and you keep doubling up on every bet until eventually hit red and then you make a lot of money and the problem is you go broke before you hit red now on wall street they engage in this martin gambling system because the money that they get to make the bets is free from the federal reserve a zero percent interest rate and they never have to pay off any they're losing bets meanwhile the average person is in the stock market any time they suffer a loss they actually have to suffer a loss show you've got this diametric you know a proposition in the investing world where people are saying well there's a lot of opportunity in the stock market but it's different if year out of wall street and you have unlimited credit and you never suffer a loss so why do the average people out there whether it's canada america or
11:51 am
anywhere else in europe why do they insist on all is getting the short end of the stick either they get the worst rates on their credit cards and they get the worst gambling percentage in the stock market they get the worst jobs or get the worst of everything are they settling for the worst of everything well i think that most people are very afraid i mean this is going to be a long term historical perspective but i'll keep it short most people are very afraid to change the fundamental social order and what we're talking about here is a fundamental social order that is much closer to fascism than it is to the free market you do not have a free market when government controls the currency you do not have to mock prosy when government controls the currency what you have is a bribe ocracy where government prints money and steals from the unborn in order to bribe voters for power in the here and now so the fundamental system has to be gotten rid of if you have to get rid of government control of currency currency has
11:52 am
to be privatized that way you can't run deficits you can't fund these god awful wars with your currency and debt and the whole system is going to change fundamentally you have to get government out of currency and you have to get the government to stop manipulating the market interest rates we all know but the real . isn't that we government is driving down interest rates so much it is to bribe its friends to give them basically free loans at the taxpayer's expense and also to cut down its own cost of having to repay its debt i mean if the government had to repay its debt of any kind of reasonable mortgage loan we would be in default already so fundamentally you have to change the system and it has to be a very fundamental change in the system people are afraid of that sometimes it goes the american revolutionary way sometimes it goes the russian revolutionary way or the french revolutionary way and so people are very scared they're just going to kind of huddle and hoping to blow over and hope things get better as they have in the past remember we bailed out the savings and loan banks in the one thousand nine hundred eighty s. bailed out long-term capital management in one thousand nine hundred eight the bailout to be going on for a long time people think it's going to get better it's going to get better this
11:53 am
time it's just not and until people realize that they're not going to get off their couches stop watching t.v. take to the streets take to the blogosphere confront their neighbors with the false hoods that they believe until people recognize that the system is there down and buried they're not going to really advocate for change and it's taking a while for that to sink in for people right now are savings along crisis was bailed out also fifteen hundred bankers went to jail long term capital management not only did no bankers go to jail but greenspan lowered interest rates thus having savers and retirees subsidize the bell out and the payments for a few guys in greenwich connecticut and when you talk about the stealing from the unborn of course i've always my contentions r.'s there that this is why the tea party is against abortions because they need new clothes to inherit the debts and to. to go to prison and let me ask you this the prison system in america cost six hundred billion dollars a year is a possible that
11:54 am
a small government of the highest prison population in the world other than what i just mentioned at the tea party need to justify their religious extremism well the tea party the prison system has become just another handout it's become just another subsidized industry which is. one of the reasons why you can't get rid of these crazy ridiculous laws like drug laws and sarbanes oxley and all of these regulations which add up to precisely nothing people say all of the current crisis of course about by deregulation when regulations vastly increased under the bush jr presidency so you know the prison industry and the prison industries counted in g.d.p. of all the insane things that count in g.d.p. you can't people getting sick in g.d.p. you can't the prison system in g.d.p. this is complete nonsense i mean you can only produce just because the people in prison are working for sixteen cents an hour and what the present builders and operators are making fabulous wealth on the stock exchange so they're saying this is economy is growing yeah because you know slave labor is such
11:55 am
a positive aspect of capitalist economic growth of course you'd want to count that i mean it's the statistics are completely meaningless we're living in this sort of prophet or house of cards you know like the soviet statistics the five year production plans that are going to you to flee i mean this is all complete nonsense we're living in a propaganda delusion and it's not going to take long for this to were to come crashing down and for people to wake up the only danger the only danger max and it is a significant danger which is i think why it's so important that we take to the airwaves and yell the truth as much as humanly possible the great danger is that people are going to think that freedom is the problem the problem is coercion the problem is monopoly the problem is the violent counterfeiting of currency the selling off of people's future through the coercive power of the state it is violence that is causing all of these problems it is not peace it is not trade it is not property rights it is not freedom and it certainly is not the free market right now talking about counterfeiting said i had a little audit thanks to bernie sanders and they revealed sixteen trillion in
11:56 am
a loan as they were made to foreign banks and j.p. morgan goldman sachs and jamie dimon got exemption as part of this bailout money and loan program to add to other nefarious activities even. that sixteen trillion dollar balance figure and why what is america so concerned about going out these foreign banks unless of course america reports to foreign entities i think america as a whole is pretty clueless about the fed it's really complicated it's pretty abstract and of course it's the last thing they're going to teach you in government schools and government schools they can teach you how the government ended slavery and the government saved us from non-system in the great depression and the government helps the poor and the sick and the old you get all their propaganda you're not going to get the actual basis of government power which is counterfeiting and theft so yeah it's monstrous and what is truly astounding about this is the way they're handing out these waivers for conflict of interest c.e.o. of j.p. morgan chase served on the new york fed's board of directors at the same time that
11:57 am
is bankruptcy for almost four hundred billion dollars in financial assistance from the thread william dudley now the new york fed president granted a waiver to keep his investments in a i.g. engine and general electric at the same time that they're given a bailout funds and the reason that the fed gave for not making this guy sell it holdings is because they did not want to create the appearance of a conflict in i mean so it's ok to have a conflict of interest you just don't want to create an appearance of it the fed outsource all almost all of its operations for these emergency lending programs to private contractors j.p. morgan chase morgan stanley wells fargo the usual suspects these guys all got trillions of dollars in federal loans at near zero interest rates and two thirds of these contracts were no bid contracts morgan stanley got a one hundred billion dollars to help manage the fed bailout of a.i.g. i mean frankly this is complete peak feeding shark attack profiting at the taxpayers' expense and it just shows you that the government doesn't have rules the government is an exemption from rules it is an exemption from the rule of theft
11:58 am
through taxation it is an exemption of the rule of counterfeiting for the federal reserve and it is an exemption of any reasonable rules of conflict of interest by just handing out a get a waiver a get away for your fine it's madness all right one last question finally the latest polls show that ron paul could possibly be fair. bahman twenty twelve is it too late for ron paul his promised and the i.r.s. cia for military bases except. yes i do know that it let me give you a short answer a little very slightly longer one which is now i don't think we have time for a longer one o three quick don't go anywhere near the government you don't want to be promoted to captain of the titanic after the ship is just about to go down because then all anyone will remember as a libertarian was in power when everything went down it was discredit freedom for another thousand years so i say stookey of the mess stand back speak the truth don't get in books all right stephen only thanks so much again for being back on the kaiser report thanks all that's all the time we have for this week oh the car's a report with me max kaiser i want to thank my guests stefan molyneux if you want
