I dont need proof to believe that,
some corporations are too big to fail and that some people (actually alot of people) in Washington has and is still committing treason,just like I truly believe the universe is too big to doubt it holds places where there is intelligent life.
interesting find btw......!
jbr ..you sleeping?

forex will do that to u..especially if your trading on the news.........
;)
the port itself portrays pictures or actually murals,on communist shooting at doves...meaning what I just posted on communism and greece,which will be the solution to the monetary systems of the world ...
my question is: what do you get when you cross communism to extream and perfected capitalism?
but then again who really cares ? it will be what it will be and all we can do is bend over with the changes.
heard that,but ....
its for the corn heads......no greys.

ecclesiastes..(in the bible stupid)lol
basically it tells man that life is useless,you are here to eat drink and be marry......but respect the lord your God.
he wants you to be happy and not be worrying about these corn heads that rule the world..if you die..you die,at least the corn heads cant own your soul.

;)
LOL.....
thought i was the only one with that question in mind...
plus ..who the #@$@ would want the presidency ..or even any office..unless they know about the major sun flares expected next year ,and they want a seat under the Colorado airport..
thats my only guess.
I hear that..........
thats why lately ,I've stayed away from the news from cnbc ,and all the other sources that try to make excuses for america......
to know where we are heading just look at the Chicago mayor...
even ataglance2 needs rest from the insanity.
;)
I just now opened it.......
I'll read it in a bit,and give you my 2 cents that are actually worth nothing unless it was minted in the 70's..
;)
figures......
I step away for a moment and a good buddy returns.!
how are you? making any money?

GL in your trade!
thinking about this scenario today......
copper I think is the indicator for the rest of the week.
in my mind meaning gold and oil will follow..,but...,,,
then again ,what the vatican finally voiced...,about the need for a world bank...goes back to my comments in my early conspiracy days..I believe the vatican is the very top elite who is in total control of everything......they are the whales forcing the play if even in the ballpark with what I researched these past years.
guess theres no way of knowing until it happens..
so for now im looking for a break in aud/usd ..consolidating now a day or so..hopefully it will make up its mind soon so I can get in a trade....
bored and waiting...watching ..
this does not look good ,
dow down 207, oil up 1.27 ,gold up 54.....and copper is down?
looks like some of the whales are starting to feed.
The top ten signs that you might be a zombie
Friday, October 21, 2011 – by Mike Adams
Mike Adams
If you burn your yard rather than mow it, you might be a redneck, says comedian Jeff Foxworthy. But how might you realize you're a zombie? Here are the top ten signs that you just might be a zombie...
Sign #1: If you routinely take flu shot vaccines and then wonder why you still catch the flu every winter, you might be a zombie.
Annual flu shots are "medicines for the mindless." Even according to the medical scientists who are pro-vaccine, flu shots simply don't work on 99 out of 100 people. So if you find yourself standing in line at the pharmacy waiting to get a flu shot, think to yourself, "Whoa! I might be a zombie!"
Sign #2: If you find yourself watching mainstream media news, but still can't make sense of world events, you might be a zombie.
The purpose of the mainstream media is not to keep you informed, but to make you obedient. Mainstream news stories are chosen to promote a corporate agenda, not to bring you accurate information about events that might impact your life in meaningful ways. Those who watch mainstream news television quickly become zombies and then go on to succumb to vaccines and other brain poisons such as fluoride in the water (see below).
Sign #3: If you find yourself mindlessly following your doctor's advice even while your sickness gets increasingly worse, you might be a zombie.
Conscious people realize that if what they are doing isn't working, they need to change what they are doing! But zombies keep doing the same thing over and over again, all while wondering why they keep getting the same results. And doctors promote it with weird zombie logic such as: If that last round of antibiotics was useless, let's try another round of antibiotics and hope for a different outcome!
Sign #4: If you automatically do what you're told by police officers and "authorities," you might be a zombie.
A police officer shows up at your doorstep and politely asks, "May I come in?" A zombie says, "Sure!" and mindlessly opens the door. But an intelligent, conscious person knows this is a zombie mind trick that allows law enforcement officers to testify that you gave them consent to search your entire home. When a police officer asks to enter your home, they are not being polite. They are asking you to surrender your Fourth Amendment rights, and they are using clever social contracts to manipulate you into giving up those rights without you noticing. Don't be a zombie! Know your rights! Learn more at FlexYourRights.com.
Sign #5: If you only read the front of food packages – and not the back – you might be a zombie.
While shopping at the local grocery store, you notice a package of cereal that claims to be "all natural" and says it may "lower cholesterol," too. The back of the cereal box, however, may reveal that the ingredients are not organic, meaning they're made with pesticides and GMOs. Zombies only read the marketing claims on food products. Conscious people read the ingredients and learn how to see beyond the marketing hype of dishonest food companies.
Sign #6: If all your savings are currently held in US dollars, you are almost certainly an economic zombie.
Thanks to the inflationary actions of the Federal Reserve, the US dollar is losing value with each passing day. Before long, it will likely collapse in value. As that happens, all the people left holding useless dollars (both physical ones or electronic ones in your bank account) will discover they have been acting like "economic zombies" because they put all their currency eggs in the same basket. Conscious people diversify their savings into land, real estate, gold, non-US currencies, corporate stocks and even barter items like silver dimes, storable foods, salt, sugar or common ammunition.
Sign #7: If you believe what you were taught in public school, you are definitely a zombie.
American scientists developed the nuclear bombs dropped in World War II, right? Wrong. It was Nazi scientists who processed the nuclear fuel and designed those first two bombs. (Read Rise of the Fourth Reich by Jim Marrs.)
Columbus treated the indigenous Indians with great friendship, right? Not exactly: He and his crews raped the female Indians, then tortured and murdered many of the males. To celebrate "Columbus Day" is to celebrate a mass murderer. (No wonder all the government workers get the day off!)
The federal government exists to protect the rights of the People, right? C'mon – today's government goes out of its way to violate the Bill of Rights, violate federal law and destroy the very Constitution it was sworn to protect. For example, did you know the Obama administration runs a secret "kill list" of Americans to murder without any trial or due process? This has now been openly admitted and confirmed by the White House.
Sign #8: If you drink fluoridated tap water, you are a fluoridated zombie (which is, of course, the whole point of fluoride).
The Nazi war machine used fluoride as a mind-numbing agent to keep its population under control while it committed genocidal murder. Have you ever wondered for what purpose the US, Canada, Australia and other countries are now using the same chemical cocktail in the water supply?
The medical fiction that "fluoride prevents cavities" is a complete quack science hoax. Fluoride is actually a highly corrosive toxic industrial chemical, as revealed in hidden camera footage in the article, "Hidden camera water fluoridation video released by InfoWars" at NaturalNews.com.
Sign #9: If you find yourself rooting for any presidential candidate other than Ron Paul, you're probably a political zombie.
Ron Paul is the only Presidential candidate who has offered a genuine balanced budget (all the other candidates want to keep spending us into financial oblivion). Ron Paul is the only Presidential candidate who stands firmly for health freedom, ending prohibition against medical marijuana, legalizing the farming of industrial hemp, and allowing nutritional supplement companies to make accurate, scientifically-validated health claims for their products. All the other candidates are just corporate puppets who have nothing to offer America other than a continuation of the problems that have driven our nation into economic and political turmoil.
To vote for Romney, Perry, Cain or even Obama is to mindlessly vote for continuing the same broken system of puppet presidents who answer to their corporate globalist masters (just like Bush).
Sign #10: If you think that Bigger Government is the way to solve the problems that have already been caused by Big Government, you might be a zombie.
Irrational faith in government is a sure sign of cognitive zombie-ism. As government itself is the cause of most of society's problems – financial bankruptcy, political corruption, the waste of taxpayer money, the promotion of a culture of criminality, deadly health care monopolies and so on – it is completely irrational to think that MORE government can solve the very problems it has created!
• Zombie Obamanomics, for example, is the practice of spending more government money to eliminate government debt – also known as "Zombienomics."
• Obamacare, also known as "Zombiecare," is the practice of treating the health of the population with the very same medications and surgery that only "manage" disease symptoms rather than curing disease.
• "Zombocracy" is what I call a government run by zombie politicians who are voted into office by zombie voters.
• "Zombiflation" is the creeping upwards of prices on everyday goods at a pace too slow to be readily noticed by the zombie population. The Federal Reserve is constantly trying to create new money to expand the money supply at precisely the outer limit of Zombiflation.
• "Zombruptcy" is what happens when zombie consumers go bankrupt and can't pay their home mortgages anymore, at which point zombie banks take them over and try to sell them at reduced prices to other zombies.
• "Zombie elections" are contests between two or more globalist zombies who compete to receive the highest number of votes from a mass of zombie voters, none of which have any real knowledge about the character or voting records of the zombie candidates they are electing into office. Zombie voters tend to vote for people based on what they look like. "We need a black president because skin color is what matters!" Or better yet, "We need a fat president, because he looks like the rest of the zombie Americans!"
What about this instead? "We need a president who defends the Constitution and wants to stop the Federal Reserve from stealing more of our money!"
You can be a zombie for Halloween, but don't be one in real life
This Halloween, I was thinking of walking around wearing a mask of Anderson Cooper, because I can't think of a more frightening image of corporate-controlled zombie mindlessness. I could carry a microphone with the letters ZNN – Zombie News Network – and do interviews with "zombies on the street."
Hey there, parents, did you know the high fructose corn syrup in the candies your children are sucking down tonight is made from genetically modified corn? Did you know the chocolate in those name-brand candies was harvested from cacao plantations using child labor? Did you know the artificial food coloring chemicals in the candy promotes symptoms of hyperactivity and ADD?
Ah, but you see, the parents don't want to hear that, because they too are zombies. Who else lets their kids run around and collect bags full of mystery foods from the houses of total strangers?
By the way, it's okay to appear as a zombie for Halloween if you want. Just don't run around acting like a zombie in real life. Use your brain for a change... a global change!
Think about what you're doing, who you're supporting, what you're buying, where you're getting your information and what you choose to believe. Don't be a sucker for mainstream news fictions, pharmaceutical propaganda, medical system quackery and political hucksterism. Always ask skeptical questions, always demand accountability, and if you catch yourself in one of the top ten zombie situations described here, get out and take back your brain as quickly as possible!
A daily dose of NaturalNews will shock your brain back to reality and has been clinically proven in scientific trials to reverse chronic zombie-ism.

good article from the daily bell.
so far from 10:30 yesterday my long aud/usd has made me 228 pips
and im seeing consolidation so im just going to hold my long position and hopefully catch the next wave up.
one more thing......
do you really believe the US dollar is in a free market?
the country with a 14 trillion dollar GDP is only worth 70 cents?actualy in SDR's it only worth 60 cents ,its true value in the so called free market.
I use to believe in santa,when I first started trading forex too..
:)
you are right again about the board of governors ,but they are owned by a group of european bankers.....
as far as war....lol...our economy is one big war machine...,
pretty much,it always has been...in the days where it was imposable to get to other countries with its war machine..we went to war with our selfs..we have had very little peace since the mayflower..
as far as china,we have been at war china since the 50's..
not directly in Beijing,but on chinas western borders,while fighting in north korea..I know this because my father was a pow held and captured and tortured by Chinese troops.N. korea and china are the same.
As far as forex....
euro 139.40 in 1-3 wks
as far as trading that ..im thinking long in the back of my head ,but trading the hourly chart and going with the flow.trying to roll with the punches..I'm still a bit shell shocked by the left hook AUD/USD gave me on sunday night....im not in a trade at the moment but im about to try a long position in about 15-30 mins,unless things change......
Beijing intervenes to help stabilise banks..
Beijing intervenes
True.....,
the john perkins post boils down to this sentance in the artical..which is the main reason for my post..
Instead of maximizing profits regardless of the environmental and social costs, profits should be made within the context of creating a sustainable, just and peaceful world
Im not for the protest on wall street because it just opens the door for every knuckle head with that government check, who has nothing better to do with their time will find other reasons to attend what ever protest that George Soros pays for to disrupt ,change,or lobby for his personal benefits ,and im not saying everyone who gets a government check is a knuckle head......,
as far as forex..be very careful on buying the dollar ..for one..we also have the currency battle with china right now..with the yuan ,if it does appreciate to the recommend 20% ,yes it will bring jobs and deficit reduction to the USA ,but it will make the dollar even weaker..$15 loaf of bread..,but thats really the core of the the whole problem.{china}.I totally blame the Idea of the past, that we could force china to appreciate of for that matter any other country's monetary policy that doesn't jive or go along with our greedy money hungry federal reserve.....which ,im sure you know is actually owned by a group of wealthy bankers in europe..they are not there for the interest of the citizens of the USA, but thats another story, and back to the euro,, keep in mind what I said above,eventually I predict among others ,that all central banks will collapse, if they keep shifting the same and only dollar back and forth between central banks.. and they know it... they staged all this from a long time ago to create their unjust world bank..so ,short term correction for the euro until central banks manipulate the markets again..
what is the answer to the problems at hand..? The elite know the answer ,but doing it thwarts progress on a world bank,but the problem is solvable......break up the European union! period.
I though my post was done but I have to add...the world bank can work ,but China's currency has to be revalued in order for that to happen..and china knows it,but they can't come right out and say this because we would defiantly find an excuse to go to war with them.now these are just my opinions ,but im sure im not too far off.
;)
This makes sense to me...
a few paragraphs from John Perkins...he's the author of "economic hitman",or something like that..
;)
I should of perceived that run up over night ,but I took a chance..
and lost...crap!
I cant get that song "I fought the law and the law won" out of my head.
It is being said the Euro has two weeks to pull it together or crash and burn.....guess thats what we are seeing??
Dow up 266 points....how is it that in this time of world turmoil,savey investors dare to buy??
do really want to know everything?
this is an amazing video
Athene's Theory of Everything
and....,GL starting the week.!
I can only guess thats why we gave up the space station and gave nasa the pink slip....
?
do you have the time to watch,
2012 FALLOUT SHELTER: SECRET UNDERGROUND BUNKERS.
SECRET UNDERGROUND
12:23 (Dow Jones) The double shots from Fitch are now stirring some waves in markets -- euro is paring gains against the dollar, US stocks ticking down and Treasury bonds recovering a bit from session lows. One interesting note from Fitch is that despite the rate cut on Italy, it says ECB, EFSF/IMF would prevent Italy liquidity crisis. Benchmark 10-yr note is recently 27/32 lower to yield 2.081%. (min.zeng@downones.com)
12:11 (Dow Jones) Treasurys shrug off Fitch's downgrade of Italy. The cut is not a surprise as the rating agency just catch up with what S&P and Moody's have done recently. But the action did underscore how fragile the euro zone situation is as there is still lack of definitive plan to put out fire on Greece. Worries have emerged that France's triple-A rating may risk being axed. Benchmark 10-yr note is recently 1 2/32 lower to yield 2.105%. (min.zeng@downones.com)
12:11 (Dow Jones) CBOE's VIX volatility index has slipped below the 50-day moving average for the first time since July 22. A close below the line could be a good sign for stocks. "The VIX tends to stay above its 50MA during downtrends in stocks prices," said Tom McClellan, publisher of the McClellan Market Report. "At the point when the VIX finally does close below its 50MA, that would be one sign that things are changing from a corrective mode into a new uptrend." VIX down 1.2% at 35.82 vs 50MA at 35.89. (tomi.kilgore@dowjones.com)
12:10 (Dow Jones) Fitch might not have had Italy on review for downgrade, but the move shouldn't be a big surprise. After S&P and Moody's downgraded Italy in recent weeks, Fitch's rating on the country was the highest among the trio -- by two notches. What might be more of a surprise is that Fitch cut the rating by just one notch to A+, which means it still has a higher rating than both Moody's and S&P. The euro fell against the dollar on the news, but is retracing that loss. It's at $1.3498, according to EBS via CQG. (stephen.bernard@dowjones.com)
12:03 (Dow Jones) Dollar Tree (DLTR) shares up 1.8% at $77.84, not far off recent all-time high, after the company approves another $1.5B to fund stock buybacks. DLTR's rally contrasts with flat-to-slightly higher tone among consumer discretionary stocks today. Deutsche Bank calls it a "strong indicator" of the company's comfort with current business trends. Not hard to see why DLTR management feels comfortable with trends, as today's September jobs report shows tepid growth and still-high unemployment rate, leaving plenty of consumers in trade-down mode. (karen.talley@dowjones.com)
12:03 (Dow Jones) Traders shop for a bearish options on Safeway (SWY), with more than 13,000 October $17 puts bought to open. The contracts will be the largest block of open interest in the grocer, says Trade Alert's Henry Schwartz. He adds it's unclear whether the play is the work of a standalone bear or a new wrinkle on an existing bullish strategy. Schwartz notes that today's trade might hedge a large block of October $16 puts that were sold to open last month. SWY reports 3Q Thursday; it's down 1.7% at $17.63. (christopher.dieterich@dowjones.com)
11:51 (Dow Jones) The multi-month long bull run is hit by another setback this week, but over the past few months, several selloffs have been short-lived. And Mike Schumacher, head of global rates strategy at UBS, says this round of correction will soon peter out. "We doubt that Treasury yields will rise much farther," he says. He notes the stock rally has been predicated on the idea that the euro zone will come up with a comprehensive plan to recapitalize banks. "We doubt that in the next few weeks the euro zone will put in motion a concrete plan to recap banks, and the market will think that the talk about a recap is just that -- talk," he says. "If we are wrong, then Treasury yields could spike." Benchmark 10-yr note is 1 1/32 lower to yield 2.104%.(min.zeng@dowjones.com)
11:46 (Dow Jones) US pork producers and processors are hopeful that Mexican tariffs on pork and other goods will be suspended soon. Tariffs were imposed on 89 US products, including pork, in August 2010 over a long-standing trucking dispute. A 5% tariff on pork was cut in half earlier this year when the two countries reached an agreement. "Allowing Mexican trucks to haul goods into the United States means that Mexico will suspend the tariffs on a host of American products, including pork," says Doug Wolf, president National Pork Producers Council. This could happen within a week or so. (curt.thacker@dowjones.com)
11:25 (Dow Jones) Chile's Ipsa select stock index erased a 1.3% gain and fell into negative territory midday as investors booked profits following the previous session's 5% surge. "There isn't a specific sector investors are targeting; it's profit-talking across the board," a local trader said. Ipsa recently down 0.7% at 3861. (carolina.pica@dowjones.com)
11:23 (Dow Jones) Today's largest single-stock options trade comes in EMC, with more than 10,000 November $23 calls bought, and much of the position appears to be opening. At the time of the trade, the player needed the stock to gain 6.5% the next six weeks to show a profit, says Pipeline Trading System's Patrick Mortimer. The storage company's 3Q results come Oct. 18, and come as EMC posted records for 2Q. EMC up 0.5% at $22.43. (christopher.dieterich@dowjones.com)
10:57 (Dow Jones) UBS advises investors to pick up companies reducing their share count with buybacks and which have attractive dividend yields. Its derivatives strategists go further, saying clients ought consider buying January "call spreads" on names like Allstate (ALL), CSX, DirecTV (DTV), Home Depot (HD), Lowe's (LOW), Microsoft (MSFT), Procter & Gamble (PG), UnitedHealth (UNH) and WellPoint (WLP). Not concerned about stock tumbles in Baxter (BAX), CSX, MSFT, UNH or WLP? UBS suggests investors goose expected returns using the "risk reversal," a strategy that involves selling downside puts to fund the purchase of upside calls. (christopher.dieterich@dowjones.com)
10:56 (Dow Jones) SkyBridge's Anthony Scaramucci is not shy to admit wrongs. Speaking at the Hedge Fund Association's LatAm Chapter Symposium in New York, he says: "Our seeding business sucks." Hedge fund seeding business was what got the firm started, but SkyBridge mostly seeded firms in 2007, when prices were sky high, and seeded firms went through an extremely tough patch in 2008, 2009. But he says the firm has no intention of leaving the business. "Steve Jobs stayed in the PC business when everyone was telling Apple to leave it, look at Apple's market share in PC now," he says. (amy.or@dowjones.com)
