we made mouth coils very famous by maximilian and a lot of other kind of cheap plastic magic tricks until one day i showed up to work and he had disappeared cheap plastic magic tricks is actually a good headline for this episode because the first headline is a tweet the pool of negative yielding debt has risen to a new post twenty seven thousand high of nine point two trillion dollars mind boggling at a time when the global economy is supposedly still recovering this is the market value of bloomberg barclays global aggregate negative eeling debt index as you see negative yielding debt is rising rising rising which suggests that in the real world outside of all the magic that the central banks are. brilliant illusions they're putting forward for the population that the real people behind their curtain the bankers are terrified and they're willing to lose money on lending at a negative me well up until recently the idea of a negative interest rate was considered a financial all in possibility in economic him possibility it had never been tried
12:31 pm
for in this tree of economics or finance and ever in the hundreds of years of such things distance of the modern economic reality that we can go back to adam smith and the wealth of nations back to seventeen seventy six actually when that book came out and there's never ever been a try before of a negative interest rate so it's like. they also discovered in the world of physics this past week that they've proven time going backwards right so up until recently that was considered in possibility and now we now we have proof of a quantum physics of going backwards in time this is the same thing as a negative interest rate it's a possibility but yet it's there because it's a fancy way you know effectively of confiscation so banks are imploding they're dying there's bees there instead of allowing them to die as they would have . should have years ago they've been supported with cheaper rates and now they
12:32 pm
still are not. voiding collapse so they have to just do wells confiscation which is a mega venture a strain that's coming to your bank account soon it's a soft bell a soft bell innocent effectively yes we inform people that negative rates are coming in that is a soft balance but they original luzhin i believe happened to you just mentioned that negative as interest rates were considered and possibility that's because every single economic theory and great economists throughout history and you know an economic ideologies were invented before nine hundred seventy one all the austrian school keynesianism all this stuff is actually invented and thought of and theories were proposed prior to one nine hundred seventy one which was the greatest magic trick of all time was when we pulled you know it was them pulling the rabbit out of the hat is like everybody was like ah that for the first time in history
12:33 pm
there's nothing backing in there in seventy one there was a bold experiment to try something that had never been done before either that is to have every single currency in the world backed by other fia money every few years back by other fee out money there was no gold the gold those removed entirely those no currency in the world backed by anything that was the first time ever in history we've had a global economy without any currency of any economy that's backed by anything it's all backed by each other it's called infinite regress so it's just one thing referring to another thing referring to another thing referring to another thing and that's controlled by the bank of international settlements and their world central banks who collude they're involved in a massive conspiracy to pretend as if the banks are collapsing but the banks are collapsing and we have definitive proof of that with a nine point two or nine point three trillion and growing and negative interest rates that's proof that the banks the central banks and every major bank whether it's j.p. morgan deutsche bank b m p. any major bank in the world technically is insolvent
12:34 pm
why a factor of bill hundreds of billions are they technically insolvent because the fact is there's nothing underlying anything it's all one great big magic act and i mean i think what it is is the magic act come on wrong so i know you've done magic acts in times square so i want to magic acts starts to go wrong how do you distract the audience from seeing that you're the quarter just slipped down your sleeve like you have to come up with something even bigger to distract them from that failure failure was part of your magic act in a magic act there is a failure because there's always a way to mr recht right there miss it's infinite mr action and david copper will field made the statue of liberty disappear through mr action the right that mean the statue of liberty did not move but he the illusion was through mr action that it did move and there is a video right now of this young chinese girl who does the famous cup some balls or chain and she's really done it in a modern way and it's all mr action and it's because she's getting millions of
12:35 pm
views so that same tricks been fooling people for thousands of years and through mr action but in the world of banking if we know that when in two thousand and eight when it was time to sell some of the bonds our on the books of these banks as a way to pay off these debts we know that the value of these bonds on the market was not one hundred cents on the dollar like the banks are telling us but actually closer to one or two cents on the dollar and that's how we know that this is that the insolvent because there's no about there's no market for these but the bonds are the unsellable if you know if i can say that i own for example all the brooklyn bridge and i and i sell a bond against the brooklyn bridge and i sell a billion dollar multibillion dollar bond against the brooklyn bridge well actually somebody's going to come in they say ok we'll deliver the brooklyn bridge and i say well i can enter on the deed just like in the two thousand and eight sub prime crisis there were no deeds for the houses that goldman sachs. packages
12:36 pm
collateralized mortgage obligations and then sold into the pension market in the wholesale derivatives market because they didn't have the d. they were just making stuff up pulling rabbits out of their hat and selling that as a yielding security to pension funds but there's nothing there all of this mr action and infinite mr action as you refer to it is that they need you to believe that the dollar is good as gold and therefore the global fiat's system and we have the central banks now buying their own debt and japan the japanese government owns something like forty two percent of their own debt the japanese central bank owns forty two percent of the government there so they're buying their own debt to keep you the citizen thinking that everything is ok and one of the things about our participation as you know ordinary in the bottom ninety nine point nine percent of the population is this notion of meritocracy that it's all free market and that you know jamie dimon is a billionaire because he's a hard worker and a clever guy an exceptionally clever and he uniquely is clever is not the free
12:37 pm
money from the fed giving him you know behind the curtain of the magic act it's his unique cleverness and brilliance and leadership qualities and the same thing it's reminds me with this huge story going on in america of all these elite colleges if you're smart enough it's you know you can get into harvard or yale or duke you know it's you know it's fair competition this is a way for you your ordinary middle class lifestyle to compete with the children of the rockefeller's and the clintons and the bushes and like it's all level playing field and what we found is that in fact there are side doors almost everybody in america has to go through the front door of a university this is what is called front door side or a back door or the front door is for the ordinary joe you have to take your s a t's if the taker a.c.t easy if they take all these standardized tests to show that you're worth getting into duke but. the very very wealthy the super wealthy are
12:38 pm
allowed the backdoor and it's considered legal if they give ten million dollars to duke to build a library twenty million dollars then it's natural that their children can go to duke university but we now have a situation where all that time that all these people are getting you know. telling their kids you have to study that to study they have to take extra curricular activities if they compete you have to compete and there's been an illusion this whole time for the last twenty years or people are racking up students out of over one trillion in debt outstanding that is non dischargeable by the way that they have it's been a fake competition there was no competition there's been a side door available only if you have a couple hundred thousand per child to bribe somebody in how does this relate to money and central bank policy of creating infinite quantities of money to keep sake banks of float because they were using as part of their bribes to get their kids into these schools shares of stock so there's
12:39 pm
a lot of value of course facebook shares and other shares and these shares have been pumped up by quantitative easing and stock repurchases that were financed by quantitative easing and money printing by the banks so it's a direct correlation if you were to stop the money printing the fake family printing to keep insolvent banks from having to declare bankruptcy it would therefore remove the wampum the funny money the bribe money the fake all this money being used to this huge college admissions scandal but i want to say that this is also that infinite mr action you talked about is there's a huge press conference f.b.i. perp walking all these celebrities because to the ordinary bottom ninety nine point nine percent they seem like super powerful people when they're not super powerful they had to use a side door they couldn't even afford to use the back door as twenty five million dollars the department of justice is saying this is a huge scandal that we've broken but in fact the back door is allowed to stay open right now a lot of people when we see this with millennial voters wanting people like see in
12:40 pm
office is that you know there's an there's a rage against the inequality and the rigged machine people are starting to not believe the magician's up on stage so they have to start perp walk in some people and that's going to be those if you're using a side door if you're rich but not. like at least worth five billion ten billion dollars you're going you might end up being perp walks you ok on another side story here is that the idea that the banking crimes it's all a victimless crime doesn't matter that all these banks like j.p. morgan have had to pay hundreds of billions of dollars in fines for a criminal activity that they should have gone to jail for because there were no victims well what the parents of these students are saying is that well you never put jamie diamond in jail you never put lloyd blankfein in jail who you know put wells fargo in jail a bank of america and joe wright there's no this obviously no law in america if you pay five will pay the fine just like the banks pay the fine how can you dare now
12:41 pm
accuse us of committing a crime and not apply the same standard to all these white collar crooks on wall street right so it's not just about the underprivileged saying there's a two tier society and two tier law system i know the younger the poor and in america right now the original america are saying there's that why should we be as lawless as the bankers but that's what the out warrants this is why we're in the situation we are now past that warning that if you have corrupt people at top it trickles down and the entire economy becomes corrupt everybody is going to bribe to get ahead. right and that their way around it is danger to sound money they have to have sound money you have to have gold as a bit coin as your unit of account as your store of value as your medium of exchange or if you allow one group of people to print infinite quantities of money and then you through the cantillon effects able to just buy. you know there's a hamptons rental this summer for
12:42 pm
a one point five million dollars just for the summer rental right that that person that money is just printed out of somebody's bank account it doesn't they didn't come out of the economy i mean i'm going to take a break we'll be right back after this don't go away. but the number. they've matter to us is over one trillion dollars in debt more than ten white collar crime. eighty five percent of global you long to be rid eight percent world market. some with one hundred would prefer circuit per circuit and we rose to twenty thousand. china's building two point one billion dollars a you industrial park but don't let the numbers over. the only number you need to remember one one this is you know for the
12:43 pm
12:44 pm
12:45 pm
that it won't be a repeat of two thousand and eight elaborate for us what the next crash will be like it sounds like it might be worse karl much worse debt levels are higher income has not advanced in even nominal terms by any meaningful amount. and so you have all this malinvestment that has been fueled by the federal reserve and the federal government's policies all of which by the way is congress's fault because congress is the one that enables this kind of nonsense to go on it's not the feds and you know their own internal saying and do when the bill comes due it's going to be absolutely unpayable we are looking at sometime in the next four or six years medicare exposing the entirety of their underfunded status to the federal budget in the form of deficits and debts that is a proximately
12:46 pm
a seventy five percent underfunding so you're going to have roughly. eight hundred billion will be a trillion by the time it gets there a year that's going to just magically instantaneously appear in the deficit numbers let it get to medicare in a second i want to focus on something you said there about mal investments and i think this is a point that needs to be talked about a little bit in other words all this fear of money that's being pumped into the system to camp these insolvent banks alive it has some corollary effects it has some ancillary effects i would point to for example this recent college admissions scandal involving some hollywood celebrities where they're throwing a lot around millions of dollars to get their kids into school all and they're using in some cases inflated stock price stock shares that were inflated due to stock buybacks that was an amount vestment and another mal investment and the corruption just kind of a seeps into the economy as
12:47 pm
a hall people have been saying for years well why should we care about these banks and their and their bailouts and all the crimes they commit because it's a victimless crime but it's and has a very insidious effect on the society carl your thoughts you look at all of these so-called you know mavens of the new world to steal something from from jim cramer back or forward two thousand blow up they're all extractions in extortion schemes. you know take for example air b.n. b. lift it firms like them the company that allegedly has all its values create all value takes no risk and so it gets a cut off the top the individual driver that has a car that wants to drive for one of these organizations he gets told what he has to charge what kind of couriers to have work on conditioning has to be in and he takes all of the risk and he gets eighty he gets none of the entrepreneurial reward
12:48 pm
for a given genius activity but what you're describing there i'm trying to think of starkly yeah one small group of pay paul with access to. i'm have funds taking no risks and then you have a huge proportion of the society taking all the rest and getting peasant like a wage is wait a minute that sounds like feudalism it sure does and you know it sounds an awful lot like what happened just before the housing blowup too right we had all these people that thought they were getting the the american dream we're going to be just wonderful we're going to go out we're going to refinance four five six times will use the money to go to cannes cooed and you know whatever. oops the spigot gets turned off and the bank keeps all the money into it they stole through these fraudulent schemes selling all these bonds off everything else and a person who took all the risk gets thrown out of their house the fed has indicated in any event of another financial merge a say. they may consider negative interest rates and isn't this just another banking trick to keep the ponzi scheme alive karl of course here's the reality you
12:49 pm
can print dollars with their credit or physical pieces of paper you can't print value so if when push comes to shove do you know the federal reserve says well you know we're going to do this we're going to do that and you need to go see the doctor because you have a thorn in your foot and the doctor says well you know what i'm not going to take that because the minute i take that it gets discounted by the federal reserve by ten percent because they have a negative interest rate. oh what else you got and your answer is nothing and he says i'm have a nice day having to go and see hundred other crass to sell is it fair to say that the two thousand and financial crisis that ever stopped and never ended we just had a big multi-trillion dollar band-aid put on a very corrupt banking system that and but the pos and the loses and the disease is coming out again so presumably they won't try me negative interest rates are
12:50 pm
a way to. confiscate while directly from people's bank accounts it's not even trying to hide it behind some policy initiative that they've created a person economic theory and some school of economics is just outright confiscation karo far as i'm concerned if somebody you know puts a gun in my face and says give me all your money. i probably will because they've got a gun in my face but if they tell me they're going to do it before they pull the gun in most states in this country it's perfectly legal to shoot them first because they've declared the intent to commit armed robbery armed robbery is a serious felony you have the right to defend yourself against that so if the federal reserve was to do something like this i don't know what i believe the correct response would be the seven hundred seventy five just like concord you know if the american public. grows a pair then you know somewhere between us we're in a thirty million of us then we could go four times we solve that problem but i
12:51 pm
don't see that happening you're talking about a potential some war which. i think given the high of. political rhetoric and and you know it seems that there is something a certain three song is in the air first sure let me let me ask you about this recent comment by liz about warren she has an idea to break up the tech giants. facebook briefly banning her for posting this idea on her paying and ok so let's myth warren. he's brought up the the monopoly card. karl what do you think well she's right but she's wrong. there is there is a monopoly problem there's there's been a series of articles written about the anniversary of the internet and
12:52 pm
some of the people who are founders that originally designed the protocol have lamented the wonderful free open internet that we had in the one nine hundred ninety s. in the late one nine hundred eighty s. and you know it's all gone away because of these wonderful tech giants. in some ways even got all simers or is waxing nostalgic for something that never existed the real. yeah the real problem axis is the data theft this goes on in the collection and how easy it's gotten to amass these huge amounts of data and then use it to screw people and i don't think you can solve this simply breaking up companies you have to put something g.d.p. ours an attempt to go there at the european union level didn't go anywhere near far enough i get that it's tough to throw elizabeth warren a lifeline because she is not somebody they would want to give a lot of oxygen to because. overall the policies seem completely divorced
12:53 pm
from let's say market realities and but however the problem of monopolization of the tax act and why there is apple computer or. you know facebook alphabets last google it seems it seems you know palpable it seems real you know there there are there's a pricing problem going on i mean look at we've talked about amazon karl i mean amazon certainly is becoming a predatory monopolist now is on has been a predatory monopolist for a long time or you know i will remind everybody that one of the first things they did when they were just a bookseller was they spammed my customer base. you know i made a lot of noise about the fact that i caught them at it and they tried to go oh no we didn't do that well you spammed me personally guys i mean come on. so i mean it's not like they're you know this is
12:54 pm
a new thing. in the games he's played with this distribution centers and gaming the tax code and things like that this is what monopolists do but breaking up firms by itself without addressing the underlying issue which use the collection coalition and sale of personal information without consent without informed. it's sad because you can't possibly give informed consent you look at what happened with twenty three and me for example you send in your d.n.a. to get a some kind of analysis and then the firm partners with glaxo smith kline a pharmaceutical company. how could you have possibly given consent in advance to that combination but you can't the companies are acting in ways that would suggest that they have no competition now there are you know. a.o.l. or facebook i'm sorry facebook is. how i'm dating myself by referring to a.o.l.
12:55 pm
there for a second. facebook is. if they're censoring people you know with a political agenda it would appear because there's no there's no competition so i mean that's kind of where the monopoly situation that's how others with one would seem to have a point there we need some some competition and i think back to teddy roosevelt you know the trust buster and you know there was a need for a trust busting at that time and i would posit you know curious when you think about that and you know you get cheap prices a lot of people say well the cheap prices are cheap and we want cheap prices there we let this one our please continue but it seems like a sometimes you got to break up the monopolies carl a lot does not say that price injury has to happen in a way that you can quantify in order for the conduct to be a legal fifteen united states code is very clear any attempt to monopolize restrain trade. in any enters in any any area of interstate commerce or international
12:56 pm
commerce is a felony it's not a civil first it's a criminal offense and there's this interpretation floating around that people have that well let me unless you can prove it makes prices go up then it doesn't count that's not what the law says and it is so loose with warren is correct in that the act of monopolistic. legal the attempt is illegal it doesn't matter whether you succeed it doesn't matter whether they can see it well but you know amazon has the cheapest price on no you know want to detergent this week it doesn't make a difference so you're suggesting that simply apply the law or do you all well have to have you over for the segment carlos is getting interesting thanks for being on the kaiser report thanks max all right that's going to do it for this edition of the kaiser report with me max kaiser and stacey current one i think i guess carl dancer that's over there mike market hyphen ticker dot org if you want to catch us on twitter it's kaiser report so much time final.
12:57 pm
rule of law to go whoa oh good it's. been a real good shot to begin murders calls all the light. comes on the grass community young people are deciding if they want to not like their parents not like them liberals. always struggle school again you always have problems but you can focus and walk the most ubiquitous gun out there most police departments use it almost
12:58 pm
overstayers in the school they could get their hands on economists in twenty four hours. teaching these kids both racism about police brutality taking pride in them they are. all a part of all history. so why. we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy confrontation let it be an arms race in this very dramatic development only closely i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very chaotic at a time time to sit down and talk. during the great depression which i'm old enough to remember there was most of my family were unemployed. and it wasn't it was bed you know much worse objective listen today but there was an expectation of the things were going to get better.
12:59 pm
there was a real sense of hopefulness there isn't today today's america where shaped by the ten principles of concentration of wealth and power. reduced democracy attack solo down engineer elections manufacture consent and other principles according to no on chomsky one set of rules for the rich opposite. that's what happens when you put her into the hands of a narrow sector of will switch will is dedicated to increasing power for chills just as you'd expect one of the most influential intellectuals of our time speaks about the modern civilization of america.
1:00 pm
that lines from oxy this out of the u.s. president hosts his brazilian counterparts and washington d.c. as judge nelson r.-o. faces a wave of allegations linking his family to violent crime. the only leader to have ruled right through from soviet times. announce his resignation as the president of. varying priorities to slow to stop the spread of footage of friday's match shooting in christ church. council political views. if i put certain stories about certain political issues i am a shadow of bad so.
