Live Blogging JP Morgan Senate Hearing – a Rogue Institution on the Hot Seat

Live Blogging JP Morgan Senate Hearing – a Rogue Institution on the Hot Seat � naked capitalism


Rogue institution? Well, in one sense that is JP Morgan. It is just that congress will rant and rave and do little to stop the TBTF banks and their desire to sock it to everyone else including future homeowners.

If more regulation by governments that are supposed to be sovereign slows down these supersovereign banksters, it would be a good thing. But is our government powerful enough? That is the question.

John Mauldin Discusses What Could Go Wrong

This article was first published by me on Talkmarkets: http://www.talkmarkets.com/content/bonds/john-mauldin-discusses-what-could-go-wrong?post=118623&uid=4798

John Mauldin published an article regarding the economics of Donald Trump. I share many of his views. I think the article deserves to be discussed further.

It isn't as if John Mauldin is happy with the continual drive toward negative yields and the new normal. I believe he is like many, willing to fight for higher interest rates within reason and within the economic boundaries that exist. He is on board with the Fed, unlike other central banks, and is willing to risk recession to avoid negative rates:

My Gedmatch Jewish Roots Force AntiIsrael Stance: Palestinian DNA

My Gedmatch Jewish roots are verified. It wasn't like I didn't already know. But when you are adopted, you want something concrete to back you up. I will list some charts below, but first, I want to tell you two things about Israel.

First, the African 9 test towards the end of this article shows that I am Yemeni Jewish and Ethiopian Jewish. Both of these groups made their way in recent times to Israel.

Second, Israel, a colonial power, took away Palestinian land. But as you get into DNA, you realize that the Zionists stole the land from their biological brothers. Many Palestinians have ancient Hebrew DNA. It is true that they are not practicing Judaism, but neither do I. I am a New Covenant Christian.

And did you know that the Zionists who founded Israel were self avowed atheists? They didn't practic…
