last year's. state of emergency was declared in sinai and the terror attacks. on its way are set to vote for its new president in mid april other countries still mourning the death of its known time leader hugo chavez. and u.n. peacekeepers taken hostage by syrian rebels in the golan heights have been released on the day but the jordanian government. is on the financial warpath again in its latest revelations all right here after the break. max keiser welcome to the kaiser report boy it feels great to be a bit trying millionaire i'm loving it eight months ago and if you recall on the show and on the alex jones show i said that there would be

a major financial catastrophe of the next line months and we've got it bit coin has absolutely triumphed as the dollar has crashed ninety percent against a bit coy as bitcoin is set to take on the world and root out the bank's stirrers as we sorely need we sorely need it stacy. yes max we're here in new york city that skyline right behind us in booming city has all the cities of the world where all the too big to fail banks are home. based because this is where the quantitative easing is flooding in the dow hit an all time high the very same day because the unmanipulated free market of bitcoin hit an all time high forty six dollars and i want to turn to this head by max the target value for a big coin is not some fifty dollars or one hundred dollars it is one hundred thousand two million bitcoins value is an all time high again its market cap is now twice what it was at the two thousand and eleven peak it is nowhere near its

potential recall thing says it which is four orders of magnitude above today's value you know the dow jones is in a new all time low against bitcoin and the paper millionaires in the paper billionaires are really highly suspect because they're part of a manipulated world manipulated fed policy manipulated bond markets they manipulate the price of gold and silver but all that money printing that they've done has flowed into the only non-manipulative currency in the world and that is bitcoin bitcoin is the true and. lation right paul krugman that going is the true inflation rate ben bernanke and once again i got to tell you if feels great to be a bit coin millionaire you know it's gone up almost fourteen hundred percent in the last year and i'm loving it because there's anonymity there's power you're taking a stance against the paper pushers like jamie diamond over at j.p. morgan and this is really this is the currency of the resistance. let's look over

and back at the dow jones because that did hit an all time high and we look at charles and your man and his daily video podcast where he talks about this so that brings us to today's reality where the u.s. economy is in or a session in recession to find this declining after tax income year over year net of inflation and the u.s. stock market is percentage points from an all time. but u.s. company insiders know what's really going on going on so it's no surprise to me that insiders that u.s. companies have bought the least amount of shares in any one month and also that the ratio of insider selling is now fifty to one those numbers that's the most those monthly records of the most by insiders sell by and the least amount of insider buying since we started tracking insiders in two thousand and four so insiders are selling at

a ratio of fifty to one but on top of that chairman bernanke he signaled this week that the fix is still in the fed will keep buying four billion of existing bonds each and every training day until they stop when there's no sign of stopping. so far the mass delusion is holding that money that newly created money is worth just as much as preexisting cash right well ben bernanke the up until now there's been no way to take advantage of his lunacy and his money printing policies up until the creation of bitcoin so keep printing ben bernanke and bitcoin will go under two hundred five hundred hundred thousand a million dollars a bit going there's plenty of room for it to go to a million dollars for a bit joint so as i said the fed is buying eighty five billion dollars in securities to help wall street out at the same time that we spend here in new york we've hit we've seen the sequester happen so eighty five billion dollars in automatic cuts are happening for the schmucks down at the bottom so i want to see look a little bit further at this discrepancy between the eighty five billion dollars of

free money given to wall street and the eighty five billion dollars cut in services to the poor first look at hong kong because the you know all the financial centers are really seeing the benefits of quantitative easing hong kong not just eighty four million dollar home sales so this is a home in hong kong max that sold for eighty four million dollars this past week and previously sold in two thousand and six for twenty six million dollars almost tripled in the last six years all the people have the same thinking according to one long thing a real a star in hong kong he said that the government cannot do anything about fuel prices as long as there is quantitative easing around the world people think the price and hong kong will always go higher so he was talking about a new tax on hong kong has introduced a fifteen percent on foreign buyers and of course this home was sold to the mainland chinese investor they don't care about that fifteen percent tax because they think they're betting on the quantitative easing continuing right well let's

talk about on congress state or the real estate in london or the real estate in new york and prices keep going i and i are the governments are becoming more and more bankrupt bernanke to keep floating claims that can't possibly be met so the government will be confiscating those homes in. the government will be confiscating those homes in new york and the city of london the government will not be confiscating bit coins that's a huge difference between going and having a fake a loser well tied up in a piece of real estate back in the one nine hundred thirty s. of course america under roosevelt confiscated gold well they can't confiscate bitcoin it's it's immune from government stupidity which is what's making it drive even higher so if you have eighty five million dollars home and on kong you should so and buy bitcoin if you want to preserve your wealth otherwise you're just giving the government a lot of your money. so when you speak of the government intervention in the market now we're going to look at the other side of the people who can afford the full price representing of the cash flowing into the market from quantitative easing so

if you're at the screen get of the fed quantitative easing you of course kemah forward and eighty four million dollar home because that's you're getting the cash first before it spreads down to the peasants now in china they have built all these ghost cities but this headline in particular i want you to look at. this sixty minutes video of china's ghost cities is more surreal than anything we've ever seen so this is from business insider and they say this is so real this empty city this giant vast city and you see lots of pictures here that they're totally empty and this is government policy but how much more surreal is it than the same government policies of quantitative easing and buying all these mortgage backed securities from wall street how much more surreal is it that all of our reconstituted meet the people who can make nuggets that now the pool in the ikea only takes the horsemeat scandals it's just a surreal the same sort of effect the hollowing out of our you know the integrity

of our markets but in the integrity of the food supply yeah those killer cities are just like casper a fellow you know nobody lives there because they just build under the model to just be activist a broken window theory just break all the. and then rebuild the other one is a brick all they want to revoke it lou in this economy and this is what their theory is what the academics say this with a ph d. you believe this is what the neo liberal model suggests but it's all bunch of nonsense that i measure how good it feels to be a bitcoin millionaire he asked how do you like this rain and snow and this and you know you are opening up to herald the arrival of the toshi. sarver christ christ is back and he's got good point. well let's look at the bottom you know the sort of workers that used to be part of the economy here in america so outside this bubble of new york city where they have the largest of ben bernanke he's eighty

five billion dollars keeping this economy afloat where construction is booming where the city is booming where record house prices continue outside of this matrix outside of this bubble we see american c. biggest monthly income drop in twenty years personal income decreased by five hundred five point five billion dollars in january or three point six percent compared to december on a seasonally adjusted an annualized basis that's the most dramatic decline since january one thousand nine hundred three this is the cycle be it monetary policy first get rid of all the workers let's get rid of all the savers let's get rid of all the people all the breathers the eaters and just keep all the money for ourselves and trade bond with each other and bikes are five thousand times less price meanwhile the toshi in the bitcoin army is taking them on and these people's days are numbered well and the other interesting thing is that the article then goes on to kind of. say here the bright side of things is that if you just

take on more debt you'll be fine because i said all of that said ok you don't have a job but consumers are benefiting from a housing recovery and rising stock prices you know that consumers are taking on more debt than ever the stock market's up on record that housing is up on record that the economy is up on record that the bubble and other side of the dollar against it going to come in the next the dollar's going to crash against gold and silver then the dollar's going to crash against oil so the bubble is is our cereal bubbles are popping big cohens leading the way it's showing what could happen. take a fake turns like a doll you put up against a real current like detroit and now this is the beginning of the year for the bernanke piece of the world who have been out there just talking talking talking nonsense they're on the way out yet only in this sort of ben bernanke the keynesian sort of freak do we see where they say it's better for consumers that

your house prices are rising that it's more expensive to buy a house that it's more expensive to buy shares warren buffett the richest man in the world the richest man in america as well he said that what he's been quoted in the past saying why would i want to buy shares when they're high why would you want to buy expensive cherries when you buy them when they're not and here they're trying to tell no one lavish consumers whose income who savings by the way has dropped to two point four percent down from six point four percent in december straight this time of it because of the saying is that it's great that the house prices go up because that can be used as collateral for a loan to go out and buy the issuer of the loans that are backing the house that you're using as collateral are issued by banks whom have no collateral j.p. morgan's balance sheet of ninety three trillion dollars of derivatives versus its tangible marketable assets is negative forty you know ninety trillion dollars they're ninety trillion dollars in negative equity over j.p.

morgan they're the people backing the mortgages that supposedly are getting a house price fire that you should use as collateral to out and buy stuff that you don't need from china who stole your jobs until the bubble pops then they'll say well we never saw it coming the bubble happened we don't know what what's going to happen maybe should put more money of course there are psychotic they're lunatics they've taken over the the levers of the of the machine and they're going out of control only to toshi the cyber crimes with bitcoin is going to save us and he's doing a fantastic job and i mentioned i love being a bit coy millionaire all right and it's great and it and i mention it's great being a bit coin millionaire stacey thanks so much ring on the kaiser report thank you max all right don't go away much for coming. stay right there oh.

these children. they're serving a sentence just like their mothers. little ones born in prison. now almost paying for the crimes committed by their parents. kill babies on our teeth.

welcome back to the kaiser report imax keyser time now to turn to charles to smith of two minds dot com charles see a special welcome back to the kaiser report thank you max all right charles use ref

global stock market capitalization rose from eleven trillion to one thousand nine hundred ninety eight to sixty five trillion in two thousand and seven while global assets also rose from fifty one trillion to nearly two hundred trillion at the same time what do you what does this data tell us about the global economy actually it's telling us is the central banks and their cohorts in central states have farm created credit as a substitute for wealth so we see these gigantic asset bubbles around the world they don't really translating into greater prosperity to the same degree you know like g.d.p. goes up a few percent and in asset bubbles are quite dribbling right well and they in the case of a few technology executives are making billions of dollars in the case of warren buffett he's making billions of dollars there the fortune four hundred less that's

quoted every day and c. and b. c. the billionaires who are making billions they're doing great. yeah i know absolutely because this whole thing of blowing asset bubbles is terrific for those people who own the assets which as we know are most of the top one tenth of one percent but the top ten percent of sort of technocrats there they're doing pretty well too because they own a little piece of bad asset bubble so that's why you don't hear too many complaints from the elites in in the state fight fiefdoms and academia and you know the whole conventional economics bureaucracy it talk about asset bubbles but we've had a whole generation now that has no expectation of really paying meaningful part of this economy so they wouldn't call it a bubble that's a sara lee they would just call it the new normal they don't seem to be fighting

this at all they simply accept the fact that they've been cut out of the of the equation and there's no pushback against it sal why would that why why wouldn't a cyst continue as it has because this generation is pretty much shot themselves in the head. i think. that is what we're seeing is their complete failure of conventional economics you know like creating credit in the banks and then we're supposed to borrow and become a debt sort of sin by a lot of junk we don't want or don't really need we may want it because we've seen too many ads. i think it's the complete conventional economics and we have a failure of imagination of people who look looking around they'd like another model but there doesn't seem to be any model because both socialism and capitalism have pursued this debt as the solution to all of our troubles and so they're both feeling. rights. of being involved in debt ism has replaced both socialism and

capitalism we now live in an age of debt is a much an extension of the middle ages or dark ages and replete with the what end keeping with the science of the dark ages. we have the shadow banking system which you also point to as some of your charts is growing pretty strongly tell us about it you know i think oh you mentioned the dark ages and i think it's true we are in a neo feudal global economy we're the basque majority of people were toiling away as debt service to the central banks and their cronies and the shadow banking system is part of this system that has exploded in terms of size they have now rivals. entire national issues g.d.p. and it's all happening sort of under the surface it's poorly regulated and in places like china nobody really even knows how big the shadow banking system is

right and you mentioned that you believe that in this new a feudal neo colonial era financialization and debt as. we have a great unwinding yet to take place but i guess the two options would be either some kind of grassroots revolution like we saw during the french revolution perhaps or going back even further we had the black plague in europe which wiped out half the population and finally gave some purchasing power to the survivors so either we have a plague or a revolution which you think is more probable. i'd like to see a plague wipe out the financialization if you could only wipe out all the phantom assets and the phantom money then at least we could start with. start from a base where we knew what we actually had and then we could look at distributing the. the resources of the will a little more or even we rag and then increasing the inequality in the

world with financialization that would be a one place to start just just live the cost of living wiser choices with the resources and assets we do have instead of malinvestment and increasing you can quality yeah i'd like to see a plague hit the bankers as well but we don't have that instead we have jamie diamond making comments recently basically unzipped us fly and wave his way to and far the crowd said mine's bigger than yours and the crowd applauded wildly and even now we have the tools to decimate j.p. morgan by buying sell for their remarkably short sell for we could we could completely obliterate that terrorists but people are they love jamie their love is winning waving retain they love is what everything that jamie represents i don't think that the tools of the plague are there to wipe out the terrorist bank stars but the people same to enjoy their golden shower more now into this mix comes

obamacare a major gift to the mega insurance corporations how does this fit into this financialization end game scenario. i think that obamacare is like the perfection of crony capitalism that's been sold as being something wonderful for the for the people and by the by the profession of crony capitalism i mean that it insanely expensive care provided by cartels bit debt to have totally opaque pricing and then are in cahoots basically with this central state that supposedly regulates them they're charging you know seventy thousand dollars for a few tests and the basically the debt service and taxpayers are having to pay these cartels these insane fees that are like mouli ten to one hundred times beyond what they would what they could cost in another nation without. crony capitalist cartels

why are liberals like ariane huffington so brain dead on this issue. i think. they're fixated on some sort of national health care system like say for instance canada's or france's. and they think that obamacare is actually some version of that and they have been hoodwinked by the mainstream media and all those people profiting from obamacare you know talk about the bankers i mean how much do these hospital chain and insurers c.e.o.'s make don't they make like i guess it's only fifty million a year instead of five hundred million so i guess we should feel fortunate right time magazine just ran a cover story detailing over thirty pages of hospital executives and health care professionals repeatedly financially raping to near death the average health care consumer in america but again the average american seems to enjoy that sort of

thing what about. what could possibly go wrong charles shoesmith what the so called housing recovery underway twenty thirteen. i think housing is symptomatic sort of like obamacare that. it's it's like the powers that be you know the central state in the central bank they have decided to reflate housing to try to get the debt service to feel wealthier so they can take on more debt and buy more junk they don't need and so there's just literally pulled out all the stops i mean the feds printed trillions it's by trillions of dollars of mortgages it's lowered interest rates to basically less than inflation to try to get people to buy a house and become indebted for the rest of their lives to the banks and so there's sort of pushing on a string though that there's just not enough people with enough income in the younger generations to buy all these houses and so what makes sense for a young person is to share a house or in or a co-op housing or buy

a house with five other people that this is what makes sense and were the cost of their housing from one hundred percent of deaths or some to like you know twenty percent and so this of course would pop the hood financialization bubble because once people stop. buying houses for these insane prices and indenting themselves for the rest of their lives then then. the bubble will collapse and they will feel they won't feel richer from phantom assets they'll feel wealthier because they actually have their own cash. i know you've done a lot of work looking at the japanese economy you spent some time living in japan certainly a lot going on there now they have basically fired the central banker and brought in a guy who is going to answer to the president with a mandate to print money what is going on there. i think. as this global competition is heating up you know back when the housing bubble was

expanding globally and china was booming in the two thousand there was enough sort of that the global pipe i was was increasing at such a rate that every nation could get a nice chunk of the market and profits and that's why you see corporate profits were soaring everywhere japan the u.s. china you know europe you name it and so now the glue is contract and because the this whole idea of substituting debt for for wealth this is failing in search of pan is now at and t. in the game about they're trying to recapture their a global market by depreciating the yen and of course this is triggering. great unease because everyone else is going wait a minute you know the price shrinking we've got to we've got to do something and save our share of the market so they're going to try to depreciate their currency but as we know everybody can't appreciate their currencies together somebody has to be left holding the bag with a stronger currency and that maybe they that maybe the united states. because

nothing's better in taking stuff like oil from other people in there handing him weight fake money you know people money in exchange and that's a terrific trade so the u.s. dollar will probably rise as everybody else tries to bigger neighbor and but that's that's obviously a self destructive process tells us with a simple over to the united kingdom for a moment they're talking about going to negative interest rates which would mean that the the banks are now going to charge customers a percentage to hold their cash so instead of getting a zero percent interest on the money you have in the bank you're going to get a negative rate of money you have at the bank this will be too from the central bank to the commercial banks initially but then the commercial banks will probably extend this offer to their customers and say you have to pay us an annual fee to keep your money at the bank so savers not dealing not only with a zero percent interest rates but they're being taxed effectively one or two percent every year just for the privilege of giving them money to the banks how is

this going to work. max it's an incredible i think this the banks have learned from the fed and the other central banks who have been playing the same scam that if you buy tracery bond from you know in the u.s. you're get like a tenth of one percent interest a short term treasury and of course inflation is two and a half percent officially so you're basically paying the tracery you know two point four percent for the privilege of owning this is tracery bill and so maybe the banks are simply copying the central banks because hey if people are willing to pay to an after cent for a sovereign bond why not to have two and a half percent for a savings account and it's of course it's just the same sort of. that is the basis of financialization everything is a is a constant scam we are actually huge sums of money are being concentrated into like

at the top of the pyramid right you could call it a scam or i could just call it rent seeking which there's a spat let us all three laws against that kind of thing anyway charles who spread throughout a time thanks for being on the kaiser report thank you so much max all right that's going to do it for this edition of the kaiser if you are with a max kaiser and stacy herbert i was like my guest charles here smith of two minds dot com if you're honest i mean email please do so i have ties a reported r t t v dot are you into like scott thanks guys i'm. going to. be cool language. programs and documentaries in arabic in school here i'll teach reporting from the we'll talk to vo ip interview intriguing story for you. to find out because it's
