Fed’s Exit Tax – IMF Proposal Extend Debt Maturity Unilaterally

Things are starting to get chaotic. It is very interesting that the Fed is concerned about liquidity in the world’s most liquid market. This dovetails into the IMF proposal. While the IMF is suggesting that government simply extend maturity of government debt unilaterally to prevent liquidation, the Fed is taking another approach and is looking at […]

Christine Lagarde – The Most Dangerous Woman in the World – IMF Advocates Taking Pensions & Extending Maturities of Gov’t Debt to Prevent Redemption

I have gone on record that the most dangerous organization is the now French led IMF with Christine Lagarde at the helm, which has presented a concept report that debt cuts for over-indebted states are uncompromising and are to be performed more effectively in the future by defaulting on retirement accounts held in life insurance, mutual […]

EU Commission Destroying Everything it can Touch – The Reverse Midas Touch

Ireland’s Finance Minister Michael Noonan has been desperately trying to meet the strict brain-dead requirements of the troika of the European Commission.

French say 60% of National Debt is Illegal – Default Anyone?

Russian President Vladimir Putin said in response to Hillary Clinton’s unproductive remarks comparing Putin to Hitler,  he slapped her down saying that “it’s best not to argue with women.” Putin simply dismissed Hillary’s comments concerning Russia’s actions in Ukraine.
