Police Given DUI Tickets when on Pool Toys in Australia


 

COMMENT: Hi Martin – Police in Australia hit a new low last week charging people with DUI while floating on pool toys in Sydney Harbour claiming they are a “vessels”. Really appreciate all the work you do and you’ve got a big following down under!

Keep it up Ben. Youtube title is: Australian Police Charge DUI On Pool Toys

REPLY: The police are no longer here to protect society. They are here to extract as much money from us at gun point. This is precisely how Rome fell. Once there was not enough money to pay pensions, the army began sacking their own cities to get paid.

Police are hitting new lows on a global basis.

I was just given a parking ticket for not being directly within the white lines on Christmas Day on private property in from of Starbucks and the cop gave two other cars parking tickets while we were waiting inside in line. Of course it is illegal. But you then have to hire a lawyer, go to court, take off a day, wait for hours, to stand up and say he had no jurisdiction to write parking tickets on private property. So what happens? You pay the fine.

Connecting the Dots


all-connected

QUESTION: I find your explanation of how everything is connected very insightful. So events go nuts in Europe and that sends capital fleeing to America as in World War I and II. Am I correct is saying it is not possible to manage an economy in isolation?

Thanks making my mind work

HW

ANSWER: Correct. Everything is connected so what happens in one nation influences capital flows. It was World War I and II that took the USA from bankrupt in 1896 to the world’s largest economy by 1949. It is impossible to carry out any policy domestically that is counter-trend to the world economy. You can even put in capital controls to try to stop the movement of money. That fails to work as well. Even Communism collapsed for it was unsustainable.

Producers of eggs got together to try to defeat the business cycle and smooth out the price of eggs. That blew up in their face into a class action lawsuit. Nobody can stop the cycle for everything is captured within it from weather to war. Some people will never get it. They want to believe government can make things better.

Currency Shows Turkey’s Death Spiral into Dictatorship


asli-erdogan

Turkey has really turned into a dictatorship and the claimed “elected” head of state acts like anyone other than a democratically elected representative. He has acted more like Stalin, and has been gathering anyone who disagrees and demanding other government return people who have fled from him so he can execute them. The Turkish author Aslı Erdoğan was jailed in August and accused of links to terrorists as well as being a member of the terrorist organization the government labelled PKK. Last week began the trial against this journalist in Istanbul and outside are demonstrators gathered to protest.

She has been detained for over 130 days. She and several other writers and journalists are accused of links to terrorists after writing in the now closed down pro-Kurdish newspaper Özgür Gündem. The arrests in August led to large international protests in autumn. This is showing how if you disagree with government, that is itself a crime.

The Turkish currency is showing that it will continue to decline into 2019/2020. The more authoritarian the government becomes, the higher the dollar will rise against the currency. Moving into this type of sharp decline against the dollar reflects the collapse in worldwide confidence in the regime.
