Let
me read you the definition of "fraud" straight from the dictionary: Fraud: Act or course of deception, an
intentional concealment, omission, or perversion of truth… Willful fraud is a
criminal offense which calls for severe penalties, and its prosecution and
punishment (like that of a murder) is not bound by the statute of limitations.
Now let’s take a look at how Obamacare was sold. Almost one year ago, I asked: "Is President Obama Too Big to Jail?"
I was referring primarily to the crime of fraud and misrepresentation used by
Obama and his socialist cabal to sell Obamacare. [more...]
Big
Bank Bail-Ins vs. Bail-outs: Bad News in Disguise
By
Lowell Ponte
In
the November 10 London Telegraph,
James Titcomb reports that the chairman of the international Financial
Stability Board Mark Carney, Governor of the Bank of England, reveals how
future bank problems will be handled. His plan is that future problems in banks
that are "too big to fail" will never again end in government
bailouts using taxpayer money. Instead, as Craig Smith and I explained in our
latest book, Don't Bank On It! The Unsafe World of 21st Century
Banking, governments will employ "bail ins" forcing what
he calls "creditors" of various kinds to bear banks' losses. This
seemingly good news, however, conveniently neglects to reveal who all these "creditors"
are. It turns out that they include mere bank employees, whose income and
pensions may get a "haircut" to cover bank shortfalls. Those stuck
paying for bank shortcomings may also include customers - depositors who do not
understand that when they opened a bank account, they were in effect lending
their money to a bank and getting in return only an IOU. [more...]
The U.S. Should Give China Breathing Room to Rise
Peacefully
By Ivan Eland
As President Obama visited China, he insisted that the U.S.
welcomed China's rise and wanted that country to play a bigger role in regional
and global affairs; but that rhetoric is largely hokum. The United States has
been either the premier superpower or the only superpower in the world since
World War II, exercising an outsize role in global and East Asian Affairs. In
world history, many times rising powers have had tensions or conflict with
status quo or declining powers, because the latter resist a more equal
relationship with the new "upstart." America is no exception.
