The fog of currency war | vox - Research-based policy analysis and commentary from leading economists

The fog of currency war | vox - Research-based policy analysis and commentary from leading economists: "Criticism of China’s exchange-rate policy continues throughout the US. This column argues that the US is in fact the exchange rate manipulator, due to its ongoing quantitative easing. What the US needs to do for a sustainable turnaround is to learn from other successful economies like China and Germany – not de-rail them.


One way to expose the economic mumbo-jumbo that is applied to the Chinese exchange rate by otherwise respectable economists is to look at it from the perspective of Germany and international trade."

The Transformational Power of Complementary Currencies: Charles Eisenstein on Money (Part One) | Reality Sandwich

The Transformational Power of Complementary Currencies: Charles Eisenstein on Money (Part One) | Reality Sandwich: "In this clip, RS contributor Charles Eisenstein talks about how creating a new story of money opens up possibilities for new kinds of human connections, as money is a symbol of relationships and coordinated activity.� He points to complementary 'negative interest' currencies as a way of overcoming the crisis inherent in our current story of money, in which the entire plot is dependent on the hoarding and converting of rapidly depleting natural resources into goods."

Time for a New Theory of Money by Ellen Brown — YES! Magazine

Time for a New Theory of Money by Ellen Brown — YES! Magazine: "The reason our financial system has routinely gotten into trouble, with periodic waves of depression like the one we’re battling now, may be due to a flawed perception not just of the roles of banking and credit but of the nature of money itself. In our economic adolescence, we have regarded money as a “thing”—something independent of the relationship it facilitates."

Activist Post: The currency war is phoney

Activist Post: The currency war is phoney: "The core of the 'currency wars' – in which China has been accused, primarily by the US, of undervaluing the renminbi to boost its exports – is a simple piece of arithmetic. The US has only a quarter of China or India's population.

America can remain the world's largest economy only if average Chinese or Indian living standards never exceed 25% of its own. As – rightly – China and India will never accept this, a peaceful global outcome therefore requires the US to abandon its undesirable and impossible goal."

MeltUp: The Beginning Of A US Currency Crisis And Hyperinflation | Watch Free Documentary Online

MeltUp: The Beginning Of A US Currency Crisis And Hyperinflation | Watch Free Documentary Online: "The documentary proves through facts and statistics how hyperinflation in the U.S. is now inevitable and how Americans could soon see the end of entitlement programs they have become dependent on to live and survive."

Currency wars are necessary if all else fails - Telegraph

Currency wars are necessary if all else fails - Telegraph: "The overwhelming fact of the global currency system is that America needs a much weaker dollar to bring its economy back into kilter and avoid slow ruin, yet the rest of the world cannot easily handle the consequences of such a wrenching adjustment. There is not enough demand to go around."

Activist Post: Cash-Strapped States Resurrect "Debtors' Prisons"

Activist Post: Cash-Strapped States Resurrect "Debtors' Prisons": "Two reports published by NYU's Brennan Center for Justice and the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) reveal a rising trend of patently unconstitutional practices in cash-strapped states, where a growing number of impoverished people are jailed for being unable to pay their legal fees - including charges for use of public defenders, a guaranteed right in the United States. The resurgence of these draconian 'debtors' prisons' has been documented in at least 13 of the 15 states with the largest prison populations in the country, including California, Arizona, Michigan and Alabama."

New World Currency Launched on 9/11 | Before It's News

New World Currency Launched on 9/11 | Before It's News: "In case this slipped in under anyone's radar, here's the original announcement of the New World Currency's first 'execution' on yes, 9/11 of '09--only this will be taking down a whole lot more than buildings. Eventually the coming New World Order hopes to dissolve the sovereignty of anything in it's path to global domination.

All for our own good, of course. These benevolent saviors want to rescue the world from this financial collapse--yes, the very same people who engineered it.�

The IMF introduced the concept over a decade ago so you know a lot has been going on behind the scenes. But the roll-out is on big time. If you google Wocu you'll get an eyeful with how much this 'New World Currency' has already taken hold and is spreading throughout the financial fabric of the world like a virus."

How Fibonacci Techniques Identify Market Turns | Elliott Wave International

How Fibonacci Techniques Identify Market Turns | Elliott Wave International: "In the 13th Century, an Italian mathematician named Leonardo Fibonacci made a remarkable discovery: Rabbits, when placed in an enclosed area for one year, will reproduce a new pair of kits in a very precise, repetitive pattern: 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, and so on to 144. This chain of numbers is the Fibonacci sequence.
Since then, the relevance of the ratio (.618/1.618) has been proved time and time again, from the DNA strand to the human hand (five fingers, each with three bones) -- as the natural progression of growth and decay."

A Message from The Sovereign Society

A Message from The Sovereign Society: "In fact, they're already making plans...

Plans to distance themselves from what they see as the dollar's inevitable collapse. A massive dollar failure that will double and even triple the prices you pay – at the gas pump, the grocery store, for your utilities... everywhere! – while slashing the value of your dollar-based savings."

The WOCU is Here! Finally, a Stable Reserve Currency to Replace the Dollar | Antemedius

The WOCU is Here! Finally, a Stable Reserve Currency to Replace the Dollar | Antemedius: "It may sound like a character from StarWars, but starting in Q2 of 2010, the WOCU or World Currency Unit will become the medium of exchange among trading nations. This is welcome news to a world weary of Dollar hegemony and the violent and bloody US imperialism that comes along with it.

One of the most beneficial aspects of the Wocu is a stabilization in the prices of imports, exports, and traded commodities -- freeing the people of the world from the crippling manipulation of currencies by Central Banks, which is directly responsible for a great deal of human suffering at the consumer level."
