As we head into 2016, the global financial system continues to teeter all around us. Years of virtually zero-percent interest rates in the US, along with stagnant rates the world over(accompanied by chronic unemployment), have made many do a complete rethink of what money and currency is, what it should be, and how it should be created.
These questions must be considered by any populace longing to be free, and who wish to determine their own destiny. For too long, the oligarchs in our world have called the shots, and determined those things for us, without ever asking us if that’s what we wanted. That’s why when I recently read this headline about how a European country is attempting some very serious banking & monetary reforms, I was very encouraged.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) – U.S. Chief Justice John Roberts urged trial judges on Thursday to manage cases more efficiently and advised lawyers to avoid “antagonistic tactics,” as he focused his annual year-end report on federal rules intended to speed up litigation.
In an otherwise dry recounting of new pre-trial procedures, Roberts cited the country’s history of settling disputes with dueling pistols, including Alexander Hamilton’s 1804 death at the hand of Aaron Burr.

International Monetary Fund Managing Director Christine Lagarde offered a bleak economic forecast for 2016 and beyond in a guest column published Wednesday in the German financial newspaper Handelsblatt .
The IMF head wrote that global economic growth next year would be “disappointing” and the outlook for the medium term had also deteriorated. Lagarde pointed to the continuing slowdown in China and the prospect of rising interest rates in the US as major factors leading to a continued slowdown in world growth rates and the potential for financial shocks.

It would appear the people of Switzerland have been listening to their military leaders. Having recently been warned by the Swiss army chief of growing social unrest, SwissInfo reports applications for gun permits in Switzerland increased by 20% between 2014 and 2015, according to a survey conducted in 12 cantons. But while the army proposes “arm yourselves,” Swiss crime prevention officials warn against the false sense of security that guns bring.

A series of mysterious hole punch clouds appeared in the sky of Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama on December 29, 2015.
As if these fallstreak clouds punched gaping holes in the skies across the South.
These weird clouds form when water vapor is suspended in subfreezing air, but the vapor has not frozen because there is a lack of particles for it to freeze around. Continue reading “Mysterious hole punch clouds appear in the sky of Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama”
PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — The father and son of a prominent Oregon ranching family plan to surrender at a California prison next week after a judge ruled they served too little time for setting fires that spread to government lands they leased to graze cattle.
Dwight Hammond, 73, and Steven Hammond, 46, said they lit the fires in 2001 and 2006 to reduce the growth of invasive plants and protect their property from wildfires. Continue reading “Oregon ranching case sparks anti-government sentiment”

The motive for the shooting spree, which took place on a busy main street, was not immediately clear, police said.

The Technocratic Tyranny – by Vicky
A lot of people are asking, What’s going on in Harney County that has drawn the attention of what Oregon Live writer Les Zaitz calls “self-styled patriots”. It’s not clear what he means by that unless he considers himself the Grand Poobah in charge of defining who is and who is not a patriot. In typical mainstream media fashion, he wrote a story that “bleeds”. The feature picture is of a man in camo with a scary looking gun using a tree as cover in military style. Zaitz begins his story, “The strangers carrying the whisper of danger in the vast territory of the Harney Basin just before the holidays”. Oh! The drama of it all. He must have learned his trade in Hollywood because his story reads more like a script for a Rambo sequel than a news story. In truth, there isn’t much difference between fiction and what passes for journalism in the mainstream media these days so he’s right in step with his peers.
