Is the War on Drugs Over?

Posted on by

“There’s an international powwow scheduled for 2016, one that was moved up from 2021. And every day more articles and editorials appear that argue not just for the full legalization of pot but of illicit drugs in general. The best guess is that the power elite sees drug legalization as a global solution to a problem that knows no borders. One can make an argument that the ‘war on drugs’ may have been a kind of red herring designed to lead to the ‘directed history’ of an international solution. Of course, it is widely acknowledged that the ‘war on drugs’ has been a failure – but who would ever have thought it was going to be a success in the first place except for certain law enforcement types?”

The Shocking Real Reason for FATCA, and What Comes Next

Posted on by

“The central planners at the G20 and OECD devised what they call a new ‘global standard’ of automatic financial information exchange between governments (i.e., GATCA) modeled on the US’s FATCA.  However, GATCA would have never been possible in the first place had the US not cleared the path with FATCA.  The G20 and OECD needed the US—the sole financial superpower (for now at least)—to strong-arm and cram down the throats of the rest of the world this privacy-killing measure. There’s no other entity on the planet with the capability to do so.  The very big stick the US wielded was access to the US financial system and the world’s premier reserve currency.”

First Chinese military officials charged with stealing US companies’ data

Posted on by

“The US Justice Department indicted five Chinese military officers with stealing data from six US companies and unions on Monday, inaugurating a major escalation of tensions with China over economic spycraft.  Attorney general Eric Holder announced that the US for the first time would seek to bring officials of a foreign government to the US to face charges of infiltrating American computer networks to steal data beneficial to US trade competitors. The Justice Department even went as far as printing ‘wanted’ posters.  The charges come as revelations about the scale of NSA surveillance indicate that at least some US surveillance carries an economic benefit.”

U.N. Urged to Treat Medical Marijuana As Human Right

Posted on by

the-daily-bell-top-logo61

“The elite’s support of legal cannabis makes the prospects of industry participation a good deal more attractive, one reason High Alert has financially partnered with a cannabis company. From a larger perspective, the evident support of elite globalists for cannabis proves out a major analytical point of ours – that elite backing of various industries is still a most valuable endorsement. Chances are that marijuana is the first drug to be removed from the war on drugs but not the last. This is because the top elites are apparently in search of ‘problems’ that demand a global solution.”

New Mexico court forces employer to pay for medical marijuana

Posted on by

“An injured mechanic who uses medical marijuana as pain treatment can have his former employer and the company’s insurer reimburse him for the drug, a New Mexico appeals court ruled.  The state’s Court of Appeals voted unanimously on Monday to uphold a previous workers compensation court decision that also ruled in favor of the 55-year-old former mechanic, who suffered a lower back injury in 2000, according to court papers.  The Santa Fe mechanic’s former employer, Ben’s Automotive Services, and its insurer, Redwood Fire & Casualty, had objected to reimbursing the man for using medical marijuana as treatment, citing the drug’s illegality under federal law.”

Are you part of the ‘pay-as-you-live’ generation?

Posted on by

“In late 2012 the venture capitalist and digital analyst Mary Meeker was among the first to identify what she labelled ‘the asset-light generation’, who access documents, music, film and other media digitally, rather than in some material form. Meeker also alluded to the sharing economy – also known as the ‘pay-as-you-live’ market – as evidence that consumers are increasingly preoccupied with ‘access’ rather than ‘ownership’. And it is everywhere, manifest in the success of companies such as Zipcar, Spotify, Girl Meets Dress and Airbnb, where individuals rent out spare rooms or their homes to total (albeit ID-vetted) strangers via a central search engine.”

Lightning-Like Transformation

Posted on by

“Suddenly, the old cold-war divide between East and West has burst onto the scene, with new fault lines appearing very near where the old ones were before.  And now, with equal speed, emerging market countries are backing off from unbridled support of Western democratic principles, many shifting back into a neutral zone (gray areas.)  Like lightning, the world has been transformed.  For investors, the biggest and most immediate impact will come from flight capital — massive amounts of money seeking what’s perceived to be the most stable regions, the safest companies and the countries least threatened by their own desperate governments.”

The Successor to Keynes

Posted on by

“The words, ‘Brilliant!’ ‘Ground-breaking!’ and ‘Visionary!’  will no doubt be seen in many reviews of Mr. Piketty’s book.  He recommends: Uniform global taxation; Confiscatory tax on inherited wealth; 15% tax on capital; 80% tax on annual incomes over US$500,000; Enforced transparency on all bank transactions; Overt use of inflation to redistribute wealth downwards.  Why didn’t anyone else think of this brilliant plan?  Well actually, they did. In fact, the above is essentially the shopping list of the IMF, the EU, the OECD and, in fact, many of the governments that make up what was formerly described as ‘the free world.'”

US Sends Troops to Chad on Nigerian Schoolgirl Hunt

Posted on by

“President Obama has informed Congress today that approximately 80 troops have been sent to Chad in a ‘support’ capacity to take part in the search for 276 kidnapped Nigerian schoolgirls.  The troops, mostly Air Force personnel, will handle surveillance flights and drone flights over the area along the Chad-Nigeria border, where the girls are believed to be held.  The Predator drones are now being flown out of the Chad capital of N’Djamena, and officials say the troops maintaining those drones will remain until the kidnapping situation is resolved.  US flights have been scanning the area for 10 days, and have provided no details on what, if anything, they’ve found during that time.”

Pregnant Sudanese Christian sentenced to die for refusing to convert

Posted on by

“Judge Abaas Al Khalifa on Thursday condemned Meriam Yahia Ibrahim, pronouncing, ‘The court has sentenced you to be hanged till you are dead.’  Ibrahim, raised as a Christian and married to a Christian man, was accused of being a Muslim and rejecting Islam, called ‘apostasy.’ The court followed the rule of Islamic law that the father confers his faith to his children. Ibrahim’s father abandoned her family when she was a young child.  She was ordered to be flogged on a separate charge of adultery, because her marriage is not recognized by the Islamic state. The judge gave Ibrahim, 27, two weeks to convert from Christianity to Islam.  She is being imprisoned with her 20-month-old son.”
