re: ["The big mystery is why do these people want us to know this? And why now? I wrote about the Working Group on Financial Markets back in June when Paulson left Wall Street powerhouse Goldman Sachs to accept the top job at Treasury."]
Bingo! ... YES--that is the "big mystery"...Why they want you to know ...and why now?
To those of you who think this is a nutjob-whacko-conspiracy theory... pay attention. Bits and pieces are leaking out of the media.
Rubin's recent speech about raising taxes, repealing the capital gains tax cut and cutting spending (what a novel idea there...).
Paulson's many, many trips to China and his very close relationship with the Chinese has started to trickle out.
Goldman's most profitable trade in history -- tied to a Chinese Bank IPO.
...China, they with a non-existant banking system...one with bad loans making up between 25% and 50% of GDP...depending on who you choose to listen to.
There's now a 70%+ chance the Republicans loose the House.
Commondities have been beaten down, gasoline prices have collapsed, Oil has fallen, OPEC now considering production cuts (that doesn't wash with Simmons Peak Oil Armageddeon now does it?(vbg), Nat Gas fell by 2/3rds over 9 months and the Dow is off to the races with the US Dollar recently running to 10 month highs...and bonds deep in the money since May.
My, my... how things have changed.
-- whodathunkit?
Have you noticed how many pundits are pimping the Dow 30 stocks? Hugh Johnson was on CNBC a couple of nights ago and I spit my dinner out laughing when he pimped the Index Funds as an answer to the CNBC anchor's question of -- "if it was too late for Main St. America to still get in on the rally"...and "what they should be buying?"
...don't you love it when CNBC starts pimping -- "is it too late"?
Talk about Deja Vu all over again...
THINK PEOPLE.
1. Climb, or crawl out of the box and take off those yellow glasses. 2. Step back from the box...and take a good, loooong look at it (from the outside). 3. Then pick the box up and shake the hell out of it.
Then THINK....really, really think.
Write down what is known...write down what is not known.
Think about what is known...then think about what is not known.
Think VIBRATIONAL thoughts.
Then clear your mind.
And ask for an answer.
The human brain is the greatest transmitter and the greatest receiver ever designed. Let it do it's work.
If you're not emotionally blocked (sadly, 95-98% of you are, and always will be)...the answer may come.
The greatest transfer of wealth in history.
It's coming...
And it will hit you like a "Smokin' Joe Fra-zier" Left Hook when it does come...
If you think you have the answer... post it.
I'll tell you if you're right.
That $250k presentation came from one of the most politically connected and market savy groups in existance.
A hint: It's not the Carlyle group with their Board of Ex-Presidents, Prime Ministers and CIA Directors.
But, that would be a great guess and an endorsement of the type of gravitas, power and control that exists behind this shift of power.
However, nothing is guaranteed, because no one can predict elections, the random acts of a madman, or an intervention by Mother Nature.
But, what they can guarantee... is the shift in power, to whose hands it now lies....and what they plan to do with it.
And to a great degree, it will cross all party lines. So, while the elections are key...they are not the determinant factor, because both parties have long been up for sale to the highest bidder.
I'd pay attention to the "Evil Empire" and the "Goldman Twins of Rubin & Paulson"...obviously, they both certainly play an intergral part.
One is the Bush/Republican's new Treasury Secretary... and the other, is the Father of the Clinton/Democrat's King Dollar policy.
Money has no political loyalty and Goldman seems to have their bets covered no matter who wins...
And why shouldn't they?
This is a country by, of and for the multi-national, globalist corporations.
If you think U.S. Presidents and political and economic policy are made by "you the people" and your vote at the ballot box... then you don't need to read another word.
...because you'd be wasting your time.
But, if you know that America, it's jobs, it's core industries, it's currency, it's borders, and it's future... are all up for sale...then you may want to stay tuned in over the coming months.
See you for Smackdown... 9 p.m. Eastern.
