I agree with you about the new $20 bill, I already have a pocket full of them. Never have I seen such a fast currency rollout.

As for this>'I challenge anyone to display proof that for every new twenty distributed by the fed, an old one has been recalled and destroyed.'

They call them star notes, they have a star before the serial number. They are rare enough that numismatists pay a premium for them....
Which makes your point!

I am a bit worried about the markets here. Russian markets hit hard because of the oil baron arrest.
Kinda odd. The guy is also a political rival to Putin!!

Market sources said Russia's biggest brokerages and market participants were conferring to determine how best to avoid a dramatic drop
in share prices after the market opened on Monday.

"Khodorkovsky's arrest is as serious as September 11 was for the United States. So they are using the same procedure," said one source,
referring to meetings by market participants after the 2001 airliner attacks on New York and Washington.

And then there seems to be no let up of attacks in Iraq.
Baghdad bloodbath as bombs kill 34

BAGHDAD (Reuters) - Suicide bombers have struck four times in Baghdad's morning rush hour,
killing 34 people and wounding 224 near the Red Cross offices and police stations, in the city's
bloodiest day since Saddam Hussein's overthrow.

Apparently coordinated blasts shook the city after three U.S. soldiers were killed in separate attacks
overnight. An ambulance bomb was used in the Red Cross attack.

Iraq's police chief Ahmad Ibrahim, who is also deputy interior minister, told a news conference 26 of
the 34 dead were civilians and eight police. Sixty-five police and 159 civilians were wounded. He did not
say if foreigners were killed.

The explosions, sirens and smoke plunged Baghdad into fear and chaos at the outset of the Muslim
fasting month of Ramadan. The onslaught "is not only criminal, it's sacrilegious", U.S. Brigadier General
Mark Hertling told reporters.

If something happens here on US soil, that will be the back breaker.

Stay alert...

Ps, I have entered shorts in the indexes, on their rise this morn,
not large, but a cya insurance play...

I think we may be near to a geo-political inflection point that may become a meltdown of some sort...
