Bob Janjuah, a noted investment strategist for Nomura International, has written an analysis, appropriately titled Bobs World: Monetary Anarchy, wherein he offers his own unique take on the current state of the markets.
Janjuahs report, which first appeared on Zero Hedge, claims that we are in a bubble. Whats worse, according to his analysis, is the fact that the markets have also become so manipulated and rigged by policymakers that its near impossible to predict where things are headed.
He also notes that all over the eurozone, as well as in the U.S., the rule of law has been disregarded for the sake of political expediency. He warns that if this sort of behavior isnt curbed or restrained, there could be long-term sociopolitical repercussions (i.e. the rise of totalitarian states).

Interesting article.
Anyone who thinks this isn't by design, hasn't listened to people like Van Jones, Valarie Jarret, Stephen Chu, Dick Trumka, and others associated with this current President.
US Bankers financed Communist take over in Russia. Its easy for the 1% to control the money under Communist.
It basically comes down to the leftist belief that they must control resources so that they can live like kings while we subsist on scraps.
Yes, it was intentional....these cultural Marxists “marched” through and took total control of all our institutions to collapse them. We need to get education out of their hands and teach Classical education—which includes the Moral Virtues that that Socialist Dewey kicked out of American schools.
I am reading CS Lewis who stated in the early 20th century how Tolerance replaced all the Moral Virtues in their schools and was destroying the moral fabric of the English society.
The concept of “Tolerance” as the most important Virtue— forced people (Chamberlain) to tolerate evil acts—and pretend they are not happening and eliminated the earlier teachings of Justice, Courage, Duty, etc. They replaced individual excellence with the collective egalitarianism of Marx. Emotion trumps the intellect and discipline is discouraged-—”feel good, do it”. There is no Right and Wrong in totalitarian states except what the master says.
And now it looks like Putin wants to stimulate the Russian economy by upgrading the entire Russian military. I guess if he does that then we will have to stimulate our economy by spending more on the military. There goes our balanced budget hopes.
Thanks Carbonsteel.
The Left does not want prosperity...they want power.
They aspire to the former position.
” And now it looks like Putin wants to stimulate the Russian economy by upgrading the entire Russian military. I guess if he does that then we will have to stimulate our economy by spending more on the military. “
IOW, Reagan-Gorbachev in mirror image....
(And we know how that came out....)
I’m reading Whittaker Chambers’ “Witness,” his partial autobiography and details of his involvement in the US and international Communist parties and the Soviet spy network in the 20s and 30s. He wanted to thoroughly document all of his testimony so the communists could not revise history and accuse him of having fabricated the evidence. In the book (published in 1952), he lays out the entire communist plan to infiltrate and take over education, government, unions, churches and businesses — every institution critical to our long-term survival.
The communist infiltration of many of FDR’s New Deal agencies and the State Department is just astonishing. I suspect it is even worse today, but we don’t have a Eugene McCarthy or HUAC to root out this cancer on our Republic. And the communists effectively shut down the ability to root it out through the “tolerance” taught in “political correctness.”
Again and again I ask myself “why are they doing this”? Is it a naive child-like belief in Utopia by the useful idiots? Is it the ultimate power grab by the elite few? Even Chambers doesn’t address this (and actually says he didn’t have enough room in his 600 page book to address it!).
They want prosperity, for themselves.
The rest of us can go to pot.
That’s why they need the power, so they can do this.
Yes, but that was before Russia discovered lots of oil, and before we spent blood and treasure in Iraq and Afghanistan.
In the 1930s my parents and friends set up a consumers’ coop which eventually bought out the local grocery chain. They were furious and disillsioned when the Communist treasurer stole the treasury. After WWII, my father spent many hours fighting to prevent the Communist takeover of his union on the east coast.
We’re in the midst of a manufactured crisis that was intentional and purposeful.
Why Are Our Leaders Trying to Resurrect Communism?
____________________________________________________________
They are doing so because they are woefully ignorant due to:
1. A VERY inadequate education.
2. Personality development problems resulting from a
dysfunctional/unstable family life.
3. No wholesome religious foundation.
4. A series of sinful choices.
5. An exorbitant amount of influence and/or manipulation
by persons described in #1, 2, 3 or 4.
6. Any combination of the above listed factors.
From one of the posts on TheBlaze— I don’t know what to make of it:

Another quote from a poster there says it all very succinctly:
“The reason our leaders want to resurrect communism is because their bosses, the really rich families, believe the odds of them losing their wealth is much higher in a world where the common people have a say in governance and the economy is based on free market capitalism. They know they cannot control the masses in such a world and fear they may one day end crony capitalism. But if they can set up a supposedly communist/marxist world government where all power is held by a few elites (namely them), then they can control the world and protect their wealth even if it means impoverishing the masses reducing overall wealth.
Because they can and they want to do so.

Oh that’s why the ‘report’ about millions of ‘baby boomers’ having hepatitis C and not knowing it, are coming out.
Death panels.
I read that book, Witness, decades ago-—it is one important reason why I discarded the Socialist Democrat party. The infiltration of Communists is also documented in “Blacklisted by History: the True History of Joseph McCarthy”.
Since the Communists had total control of “perception” by usurping MSM and the publishing companies including newspapers-—they were able to destroy anyone and the public believed it. The newspapers and media destroyed McCarthy, even in the eyes of his family—the pressure of the government plus media agitprop was too much for even the WWII Tailgunner Joe to fight.
The Big Lie becomes the Truth. The newspapers made Chambers look fat and ugly and tried to discredit him-—it is only because of the hidden microfilm in the pumpkin-—that they didn’t succeed-—although they almost made him commit suicide. It is only for his children that he wouldn’t give up and let the Communists control the history books WHICH THEY DO in our SCHOOLS for the last 60 years.
We need to educate our children-—back in the classics and not allow the Communists to create little Marxists—by allowing them control over ideas—all media and textbooks and publishing companies.
Of course, we got a breakthrough with talk radio—and then the internet, but the socialists/marxists are desperately trying to control it also.
Ideas are crucial-—perceptions given to the masses are crucial—Goebbels-type press has been rampant in the US since the 1930’s-—we taught Goebbels all he knew along with Leni Riefenstall (sp?).
You can lead uneducated sheep anywhere—they are useful idiots—what our schools have been intentionally making.
I went back to get a degree and I was SHOCKED at how DUMB college students were-—not about pop culture and time wasting things-—but about real knowledge-—Cicero, John Locke, Hayek, Adam Smith—NO IDEA about any philosophy whatsoever —except that of Marcuse—”feel good” then it “is good”. We went from a Judeo/Christian Ethics taught in schools until the Socialists kicked it out for Kinsey’s sick twisted ideas, Hefners, and The Beats—who were homosexuals and wrote about “hanging boys” with “erec..... and “sodoming them”. The Beats and Universities wanted to promote ideas like this to destroy Western Civilization and The Beats forced the courts—(marxist Judges) to remove obscenity laws so we could teach young children sick, stuff like the PP is forcing on them.
Why? They worship in the Temple of Satan. Satan likes sacrifices and excrement-—to reduce man to a base animal. They are EVIL and Marxism is EVIL-—it is simply that they want to “Kill God” and corrupt everyone else because they want power to force their ideas on everyone. Satan wants all souls.
Talking about hep C, they are running a radio commercial thats hilariuos. Conversation between a man and women, the women starts conversation about hep C and thier mutual friend who found out she has hep C at age 45. The woman says “yeah and she only injected drugs once while she was in college” who injects drugs only once? Funny, how they play us for idiots or play to the idiots. It’s another victim of those evil drugs just like those evil guns who kill people.
I bought “Blacklisted by History” before “Witness,” but somehow started reading the two in reverse order. “Blacklisted” is next up.
“Witness” amazes me...Chambers wrote how the Communists in the 20s were working to destroy the family, embraced open sex, and ruin the church. It is appalling how these ideas got started in the 1840s and within 70 years had ruined Russia and shortly thereafter England and other countries.
We may have “won” the cold war, but we sure seem to be losing the bigger battle of ideas today.
Exactly-—it is a battle of ideas.
Worldview is formed in the early years of childhood-—first seven years are crucial—and John Dewey lowered the age-—of forced schooling—because their minds were more “plastic”.
All laws and MSM promotions have been to get young children away from their mothers-—who used to form their characters—strong Christian ones.
With institutionalization and group think now common with very young children, we have trained “educators” that have been brainwashed by the public schools shaping the worldview of our future citizen. It is creepy and unnatural. Great minds in the past have been mainly homeschooled with very little time in “classrooms” where the Prussian design is for teaching “group think” and conformity so they become lemmings.
Public schools are designed to destroy kids who “think outside the box”—those that will be the future leaders like a Lincoln or Washington, etc.
It is what Lenin did—forced toddlers in daycare—away from the contamination of parent’s worldview. He wanted to brainwash and condition them into not trusting anyone and being embarrassed if they do something different from the crowd.
Children when removed from a loving mother and father before the age of 7—find it much harder to trust others especially if the adults teach them the opposite of what their parents teach. Communism does not want any loyalty or trust within their sick perverted unnatural slavic world.
