"This is it", Crossing the Rubicon, and other quotable quotes. Bottom line, the world economy is now out of control!
Alea Iacta Est
GS did nothing wrong?
So Bill Clinton, fraud and front running are ethical practices?
As a point of interest (as Mr. Cramer is rarely a point of sound advice) check this out from CNBC today.
http://www.cnbc.com/id/15840232/?video=1498486272&play=1
I saw this live and kept rewinding my DVR, first to see Mr. Cramer say the word "collapse" on the topic of the European economy, then to hear him hint a few times that "something bad is going to happen", then try and pick out exactly what was being said off-camera at around 1:15 -- 1:20.
I think Cramer went a little too far (or, likely was too honest) and a CNBC producer was unhappy about that.
But hell, I love seeing newscasters and the dog-and-pony-act that is CNBC stumble up here and there on the road to economic collapse.
Garbage from today's Key West Citizen:
BP ran a half-page ad (strategically located in the classifieds, section B, page 3) telling Floridians that they are on top of this catastrophe, doing everything in their power to stop the geyser (I don't call it a leak or spill; it's an open well that's gushing), clean up the mess (LMFAO) and prevent it from spreading.
Yeah, I know, I can hear your laughter from here.
All indications are that the oil has entered the loop current, yet they deny there's any such evidence. "Preventing it from spreading" would require them to at least send a boat or two out to investigate the claim. Claim or not, you'd think they'd at least send a boat or two just to have a look. You know, cos it's a leak. It's leaking drip-drop into the water.
They're doing as little as possible cos they know their asses are being hung out to dry right now and the company will go broke. They want a controlled demolition.
Hmm. I've heard that term somewhere else...
Also in the Citizen, for people who want to volunteer to assist BP in oil clean-up/oil slick mobility prevention, the FKCC (Florida Keys Community College) is now offering an Oil Clean-Up course (LMFAO). Cost: (I don't think you'll believe it, so it's best if you just investigate it yourselves-- www.keysnews.com). Aren't they jumping the gun a little bit? I mean BP is doing all they can do to prevent that oil from reaching the Keys and beyond, right? They said so. They wouldn't lie to us, would they?...
So-called "...ethical practices..." are incapable of occurring on behalf of anyone or anything via any form of economic system with a numerically implemented premise for value. And those with the capacity to understand this incontrovertible existential fact will invariably & continuously experience & revisit the myriad actualities/inevitabilities of Cause & Effect until they begin to see and understand -- and give fully conscious heed to -- this incontrovertible existential fact. And, this includes ALL of us.
Guaranteed.
