Blackstone's Wein on CNBC Most QE Goes to Financial Assets

Blackstone is famous for buying up all the real estate and ruining house prices for potential main street buyers. Byron Wein of Blackstone is in CNBC now saying that 2/3rds of the QE goes to financial assets instead of to the real economy. 

But CNBC thinks it is just fine. Wein is saying speculation is taking most of QE, and that is not good.

God Hates Master Race Idea. Donald Trump Embraces It

This article was published, by me, at Newcovenanttheology.com. It is important in order to clear the air about master race ideas:

1. God hates the master race concept. Christians believe that Satan works among all leaders of the physical nations. However, the doctrine that is most Satanic is the one that proposes there is a master race. Donald Trump believes he is part of a master race, that he has the master race gene, through possessing German Blood. This is pure Satan. If you vote for Satan, it is your right, but you are putting the nation in grave danger. 

So Trump said from the video:

A. He has a certain gene.

Trump is trying to kill two birds with one stone. First, as I said, he wants to show he likes all body types. Second, he wants people to know he likes adult women. He wants to minimize that Howard S…
