And they say there is no inflation....

 

When it costs more than a penny to make a make a 5% copper 95% zinc penny, you know inflation is rearing its head.

 

Did you know the head of the U.S. Mint a few years back, Ed Moy, used what he said were his powers under title 18, USC, and made melting pennies a felony?  Who owns your money?  You or the government?  Why must you lose money using something worth more than a penny for only a penny?

 

Did you know it is illegal to take more than $50 in nickels out of the country when you travel?  You see, the copper in a nickel (they are mostly copper, you know) alone is worth roughly $80 overseas, so the U.S. Mint got a regulation passed that is a currency control.  When I was younger, currency controls were things other, poorer, less well governed countries did, like Albania.

 

I’ve got a hint for those of you out there who think this means nothing...it means the Treasury and the unknown, unelected and unaccountable men who run the Federal Reserve (a private bank cartel given monopoly powers by the Congress) are stealing from your paycheck and your retirement by inflating the currency.  That nest egg you put away for your golden years?  It will buy you a cup of coffee someday.  I hope you can still flip burgers at 80.  You’re gonna have to.

 

Ernest Hemmingway had it right when he said, “The first panacea for a mismanaged nation is inflation of the currency; the second is war. Both bring a temporary prosperity; both bring a permanent ruin. But both are the refuge of political and economic opportunists.
Ernest Hemingway

 

Couldn’t have said it better myself.

Penny and Nickel Coins to be Phased Out in 2013

News

by Henry Wallen

Earlier this week Canada announced that they would be phasing out their penny coin. On the heels of the Canadian announcement, U.S. Treasury Secretary, Tim Giethner stated in a press conference today that the U.S. Mint will remove the penny and nickel coins from circulation, starting early in January 2013.

Due to the rising costs of zinc and production related expenses, the U.S. Mint now spends 4.8 cents to make a penny. And the cost of copper and nickel have inflated the cost to create a nickel coin to 16.2 cents.

Gone in 2013

In 2011, the U.S. mint made over 4.9 billion pennies, at a cost of $118 million to make. That is $236 million to produce only $49 million worth of pennies, a loss of $187 million in minting costs. Minting the nickel coin also represents a significant loss in revenue.

By comparison, the dime (which costs 9.2 cents to mint) and the quarter (21.31 cents) are economically more feasible, and will continue in circulation through 2013. However, according to Giethner, the dime may be in jeopardy as early as 2014.

Once the phase out of pennies and nickels begins, merchants must be equipped to round all transactions to the nearest ten-cent increment.

If something costs $1.53, for instance, it will be rounded down to $1.50, and a transaction for $1.55 or higher will be rounded up to $1.60. Credit card, debit and check payments would also be subject to the rounding rule. It is expected that the rounding will not result in higher costs for purchases or losses for merchants.

Pennies and nickels will continue to hold their inherent cash value, and they can be traded in at financial institutions. Banks will then return the coins to the mint for recycling into their base materials. By mid 2013 it is expected that the penny and nickel will both be mostly removed from the U.S. economy.

MALICE IN WONDERLAND

           MALICE IN WONDERLAND

“In a few short days we may be witness to the death of a Republic, the fading glimmer of a truly golden age. In our life time we have been witness to an age of wonder my friends, we have gone from horses to walking on another world, from party line telephones to the near magic of television and the cell phone. We have seen the world change before our eyes, and have discovered the true cost was far more than we were told, we have discovered the hopes we had for our children and their children, the legacy of freedom and liberty slowly but inexorably rendered impotent, removed from our hands to be replaced with a dark specter of helplessness. We have seen this wonderland that we built with our own love and labor, nurtured in our hearts and hands, created from the earth beneath our feet, rendered a dense and dismal darkness in the hands of incompetence and arrogance. The trust we had in the system to watch over us while we labored in the fields, created a land that we no longer recognize, that no longer recognizes us as sovereign citizens, betrayed that trust in wanton greed and the unmistakable hunger for power.  However when the golden goose is laid upon the table for the final feast, we all will starve in the cold and dark.

          There is a term in the world of jurisprudence, “malice aforethought” that is generally defined as the deliberate premeditation to commit a willful act without legal justification or excuse, a malicious design to injure…” The astute and discerning citizen cannot help but make the distinction the last few years fit that description quite well. For those who understand this concept no explanation is necessary, for those who, for whatever reason or excuse cannot understand it, no explanation is possible.  The sociopathology

of the political dictator’s mind cannot grasp the notion he, or she, can be held accountable, that the invulnerable shield of the ego will suffice to ward off the slings and arrows that are surely waiting. History has a penchant for disabusing that notion.

          In a few short days we will bear witness to the death of our Republic, or the granting of a reprieve, a stay of execution as it were. I fear the damage that has been done cannot be undone, not in our lifetime.   I grieve for what was, and will never be again.”

AGENDA 21 MICRO APARTMENT SCHEME BEING BETA TESTED IN NYC - YOU ASSHOLES!

How do you put up with it?  Get your heads out of your rectums, you dolts, and stop this - or do you like being slaves?

I'm a New Yorker.  I lived in a West Village brownstone, up four floors, front on a lovely street.  I lived like a human being in a rent controlled building.  One bedroom  with a king size bed, one walk-in closet, a galley kitchen, a real bathroom, a living room with a brick wall, with real furniture, books, music.  Pictures on the wall.  I was just starting out - and I had my choice of creature comforts (gasp!)

Tiny houses are fine, if you want to live off the grid, single, and this is your choice.

Before you fall for the Agenda 21 crap, get Bloomberg to live in one of these for a year or more.

Stupidity...

I used to think NYers were intelligent, savvy, metropolitan, cosmopolitan people.

You're just sheep being herded by your government and the UN.

You are hopeless and helpless.

And you won't know what to do but follow the one in front of you when they come and knock down your door.

Just like in Nazi Germany.

There was a man called Chuck Harder, who 20 years ago, had a radio talk show.  He predicted we would be  living in 10x10 living quarters with one 60 watt lightbulb.  I'm glad I believed him then.  He is now vindicated.

You stupid fools...

Don't like it?  It's my blog.  Drink the Kool-Aid.  You seem to like it.
