  1. On line economics lessons for the masses:

    Keiser Report with Max and Stacy

    Episode 827

    https://www.rt.com/shows/keiser-report/319577-episode-max-keiser-827/

    “Max Keiser and Stacy Herbert discuss the Keiser Report theory of quantum financial fraud: an odd world, formed by a fabric of toxic derivatives, where wealth does not take form until it has been stolen from a pension fund via particles of sub-debt existing in hundreds of tranches of CDOs simultaneously. In the second half, Max and Stacy interview Joel Benjamin of Debt Resistance UK about the role of housing speculation, and the consequent exploding mortgage debts, in destabilizing the economy.”

  2. totally-shite pot debate on q & a..where the person who spoke the most sense was the bloody retiring police association guy..

    ..he said:’i’ve just come back from colorado’..and that going to colorado would be a good idea..to see how it is working there..

    ..and for once i agreed with him..when he said this whole med-pot debate is a sideshow/distraction..

    ..that the real discussion society has to have is to weigh up the harm caused by prohibition..(he cited gangs/crime etc…)..against what harms there might be from legalising it..

    ..which is where he again recommended going to colorado..to see how it is working there..

    ..the panellists/interviewer were worse than useless..talking absolute shite..all nodding furiously that recreational-cannabis will not get a look in..

    ..the interviewer asked one decent question..where he cited what is happening/has happened in america..the person asked didn’t answer that question in any way..didn’t even refer to it..the interviewer lacked the wit/intelligence to re-ask..like an automoton he just moved onto his next question..(!)

    and dunne…that man is just patch-protecting for big-pharma..with his ‘decoupling’ of recreational use from the debate..and calling for ‘testing’..and ‘proven products’..

    ..all bullshit in an attempt to create a monopoly for big-pharma..(sativex costs a grand a month..)..

    ..and of course this work on behalf of big pharma is a natural progression from his decades of work on behalf of big-tobacco..and big-alcohol..

    ..i dare not start voicing my loathing of this man..i’ll lose it..

    ..and if labour and the greens can’t/don’t get their shit together in ohariu-belmont..and stop vote-splitting and gifting him the fucken seat..

    ..well fuck them too..!

  3. Now we all know the reason Parliament is in yet another recess this week!

    FJK (and God knows how many other NatzKEY politicians) decided to go to the UK to *have a beer with the boys!*

    Isn’t there a country to run? But that’s insignificant compared to being seen with *the boys!* when they are on a winning streak! In particular Richie, who I think should now consider some sort of restraining order against FJK! Seems to me, FJK is stalking Richie – phone calls, photo sessions, being seen with the AB captain at every opportunity etc etc! Creepy stuff now!

  4. Further to my previous post on FJK *having a beer with the boys* in the UK. I damn well hope he and any other politician attending the semi finals and final, paid their own way! Or is it some sort of important state *fact finding trip*, requiring most of NatzKEY’s front bench to attend, which incidentally coincided with the RWC finals?

    Interesting to see the Stuff article on the issue has closed comments early! FJK can’t stand to be criticized, so the compliant msm obediently obliges the master by cutting opinions short! Can’t have too much negativity against dear leader out there in the open, can we now?
