Very interesting read. And they simply liquidate all living things rather than let the economy go bust. There are some armageddon folks that would accept this as a 'natural', if not desirable, outcome.

Glenn - thanks very much for transcribing the Fitts interview! I found it to be very valuable and having it in text form will make it accessible to an even wider audience. Your fingers must be steaming! Paul

Thanks for making the effort to get this Puplava-Fitts interview transcribed here, great contribution, even if I did end up with a major knot in my stomach after listening to it. I've always felt intuitively there was a big criminal enterprise at work on this whole mortgage/financial market/low interest rate arrangement. There's certainly historical precedent for it: the 80's S&L crisis. And there's plenty of political precedent historically on a smaller scale: just read about Huey Long, or the Pendergast machine in Kansas City, etc. crimemagazine.com This one is just a monstrous magnification of all that. In fact who knows how big this one is? But combine: no oversight, no accountability, sleazy politics, sycophatic bureaucrats, unlimited credit, rigged Soviet Union style markets, that's a clear recipe for massive fraud, stick-ups, and wealth transfers to criminals, and it's sickening.
