I will go through it...SPECTRE, Thanks for the link. I will go through it over some time. I don't really think Obama is a liberal, but has liberal ideas, as he has conservative beliefs.<br /><br />Most conservatives in Congress don't seem to have liberal views, yet do moderate and have very conservative beliefs. <br /><br />I appear to operate on cycles. For a couple of weeks, I was feeling somewhat optimistic about the future, but now, after reading Dr. Michael Hudson's current piece (I will post it when I post my new opinion piece, which is nearly ready). Now, I feel much less optimistic. Actually, I feel we are in an economic cold war with Russia, China and BRIC. Times will deteriorate. This is my current cycle.<br /><br />Setting up a blogspot is very simple. A dot com site is much more complex, but a blogspot is simple.<br /><br />It really does not take much time, but the writing up of the pieces is the most consuming part of it. I typically write my pieces on paper, then type them up in Word, and then, after proofing a few times, copy and paste it into "new post" window.<br /><br />You will probably enjoy getting your opinions out there for others to read. Now, here is the key to get readers--you have to read a lot of sites, and make comments on them, otherwise, your readership will be small. I do read a lot of sites. I guess you do, too. You have to make your comments and leave your blogspot address.<br /><br />jerrymuralsignshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07892531198621839798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6775739590567135420.post-88460841301037789112009-06-19T13:02:05.616-04:002009-06-19T13:02:05.616-04:00Jerry, here's the link to the latest report (a...Jerry, here's the link to the latest report (all 124 pages):<br /><br />http://www.federalreserve.gov/releases/z1/Current/z1.pdfSPECTRE of Deflationnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6775739590567135420.post-82166789200078910312009-06-19T11:51:51.253-04:002009-06-19T11:51:51.253-04:00Jerry, ya a crystal ball and a money tree is all I...Jerry, ya a crystal ball and a money tree is all I need I tell ya! :<) I don't have a blog or site at this time although I'm kicking around doing one. I have more information available than most because I spend so many hours each day doing nothing but financial research for myself that I think I have some info that would be very valuable to many Americans who really need to hear the truth. It's a question of time required to actually run a blog or site. Too few hours in a day my friend, as I am sure you are aware of. If you have any suggestions based on setting up your site, I would be glad to hear your thoughts regarding positives and pitfalls.<br /><br />As to Obama, I think you have your liberal, but the blowback from his own Party in the House and Senate is what keeps his plans from blooming in full. It's like trying to herd cats. LOL! Just ask the Republicans about their experience with said cats when they controlled it all.SPECTRE of Deflationnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6775739590567135420.post-5392484623448759602009-06-18T23:19:53.932-04:002009-06-18T23:19:53.932-04:00SPECTRE, Hello, please leave your blogspot or dot ...SPECTRE, Hello, please leave your blogspot or dot com site address for us next time.<br /><br />I have read Mr. Weiss' pieces and he does give smart analysis of what is going on. You know SPECTRE, I wish I had a crystal ball. We all do. There are so many variables. <br /><br />Obama is leaning center right. I know he is NOT leaning left! You must remember, the right is mainly made up of very far right people. Today's left in Congress is a minority. Most Democratic Congress-people are moderate conservative people. At least they vote that way. The House has a strong Blue Dog Democratic coalition voting conservatively. There is no liberal majority in Congress, and definitely Obama is not such a person.<br /><br />You must remember, although you might not agree, that for 30 years this economy has been running wild. Clinton did a bunch of damage on his way out. Bush destroyed the economy with rising deficits, big war expenditures, and more. <br /><br />Obama was left holding a burning bag. Unfortunately, he took the advice of the Clintonestas and the Goldman Sachmen agreeing that the financial economy was more important than the real economy. Obama lost a lot of credibility with these choices.<br /><br />The G20 are in a war of economics right now. This is only the beginning. And, the buying up of commodities is what we are beginning to see now.<br /><br />Please send the link to the Fed's Flow of Funds Report. <br /><br />The banks were really never lending any money out to those who needed it. They have been hoarding it since the beginning of TARP. This we knew. They were only shoring up their balance sheets with the hand of Bernanke and the Treasury.<br /><br />You posted some interesting information.

Where? The Democratic Party holds the Presidency as well as both houses of CONgress. They can pass what they like right now, so it's on their shoulders. I will say that we are running quarterly deficits that exceed the worst deficits of W ON A YEARLY BASIS. In other worlds we are maxing the national credit card as we speak. This will end badly for all concerned except for the protected groups. More bread and circus please before the sheeple catch wind of what's really happening.SPECTRE of Deflationnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6775739590567135420.post-67132643866492729982009-06-18T09:51:28.193-04:002009-06-18T09:51:28.193-04:00Because he's part of the cabal as I have said ...Because he's part of the cabal as I have said many times. They are ALL lying to us each and everyday. They are smoking the green shoots as they find them. Martin Weiss lays it out oh so well that we are busted...broke. Oh, and welcome to the club. Conservatives thought that that's what they were getting from W as well before he showed he true hand. They are crime syndicates. Does $14 Trillion Dollars not tell you all you need to know? Read about the debt disaster from Mr. Weiss:<br /><br />While most pundits are still grasping at anecdotal “green shoots” to celebrate the beginning of a “recovery,” the hard data just released by the Federal Reserve reveals a continuing collapse of unprecedented dimensions.<br /><br />It’s all in the Fed’s Flow of Funds Report for the first quarter of 2009, which I’ve posted on our website with the key numbers in a red box for all those who would like to see the evidence.<br /><br />Here are the highlights:<br /><br />Credit disaster (page 11). First and foremost, the Fed’s numbers demonstrate, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that the credit market meltdown, which struck with full force after the Lehman Brothers failure last September, actually got a lot worse in the first quarter of this year.<br /><br />This directly contradicts Washington’s thesis that the government’s TARP program and the Fed’s massive rescue efforts began to have an impact early in the year.<br /><br />In reality, the credit market shutdown actually gained tremendous momentum in the first quarter. And although it’s natural to expect some temporary stabilization from the government’s massive interventions, the first quarter was SO bad, it’s impossible for me to imagine any scenario in which the crisis could be declared “over.”<br /><br />Here are the facts:<br /><br />We witnessed one of the biggest collapses of all time in “open market paper” — mostly short-term credit provided to finance mortgages, auto loans, and other businesses. Instead of growing as it had in almost every prior quarter in history, it collapsed at the annual rate of $662.5 billion. (See line 2.) <br /><br />Banks lending went into the toilet. Even in the fourth quarter, when the meltdown struck, banks were still growing their loan portfolios at an annual pace of $839.7 billion. But in the first quarter, they did far more than just cut back on new lending. They actually took in loan repayments (or called in existing loans) at a much faster pace than they extended new ones! They literally pulled out of the credit markets at the astonishing pace of $856.4 billion per year, their biggest cutback of all time (line 7). <br /><br />Meanwhile, nonbank lenders (line 8) pulled out at the annual rate of $468 billion, also the worst on record. <br /><br />Mortgage lenders (line 9) pulled out for a third straight month. (Their worst on record was in the prior quarter.) <br /><br />And consumers (line 10) were shoved out of the market for credit at the annual pace of $90.7 billion, the worst on record. <br /><br />The ONLY major player still borrowing money in big amounts was the United States Treasury Department (line 3), sopping up $1,442.8 billion of the credit available — and leaving LESS than nothing for the private sector as a whole. <br />Bottom line: The first quarter brought the greatest credit collapse of all time.<br /><br />Excluding public sector borrowing (by the Treasury, government agencies, states, and municipalities), private sector credit was reduced at a mindboggling pace of $1,851.2 billion per year!<br /><br />And even if you include all the government borrowing, the overall debt pyramid in America shrunk at an annual rate of $255.3 billion (line 1)!<br /><br /><br />(SNIP)SPECTRE of Deflationnoreply@blogger.com
