Venezuela Demonstrates Why Socialism Always Fails


Hugo_Chávez

Venezuela had the greatest oil reserves of any country. The country was ruled for 14 years with the iron fist of Hugo Chavez. Then anti-capitalism wiped out the country and sent it into hyperinflation. “Socialism fails when you run out of other people’s money,” as Margaret Thatcher said. It is human nature for people to work less if the state is robbing them. What is the point of producing if the state just takes it away? Every socialist system has sent capital fleeing and caused investment to decline, yet politicians never see this. They just assume everyone will continue to work and pay whatever they demand in taxes. Venezuela is in a meltdown and people are starving.

As an employer, if workers were always confrontational, why would I desire to be in such a position? Eventually you quit, fire them all, and contract. The union workers in France kidnapped the head of Goodyear and his family and demanded a greater payout. Is it any wonder why Goodyear closed in France? Who would want to run such a company if they were always in an adversarial position with employees? If there is no team, there is no business. This is what socialism destroys. There is no teamwork; instead, it turns everything into an adversarial confrontation.

Bigot, Racist, Hater, Islamophobe


When my talk was announced recently, the “virtuous” progressives fired off their usual smear tactics. They did not produce a single fact about me, but said that a leftist group claimed that I was one of the chief Muslim bashers. Which is very odd since I don’t talk about Muslims, just Mohammed and Allah. I am an opponent of political Islam, not Muslims.

They charge me with presenting a “slanted” view of Islam, which is true. All views of Islam can be shown when Mohammed beheaded 800 Jews. Muslims see it as a day of victory; apologists see it as just another historic event. My view is that of a Kafir – beheading the Jews because they said that Mohammed was not a prophet – was an evil act. If you speak about Islamic political doctrine the apologists say you are a bigot.

A clergyman weighed in to say that I do not appreciate the vibrancy of Muslim culture. He is right. I only care about political Islam. I would hope that he would care about the brutality of Islam about Christians in Africa and the Middle East, but he is silent about that evil.

A community college president said that I should be forbidden to speak. This is symptomatic about schools becoming centers of ideology, not fact-based reasoning.

Why all of the insults? It is the only weapon of the ignorant.

Will Britain Stay or Go?


BREXIT On Schedule

QUESTION: Mr. Armstrong, what do you think the British will do? Stay or go? Will you be here for the vote?

ANSWER: I will be there. It looks more like urgent meetings forming after the vote; not before. I would say that the odds of a BREXIT vote to leave are not looking good. It is hard to predict this because I expect the vote to be rigged just as they rigged the vote in Austria claiming they had to count the mail-ins and suddenly the establishment won by 31,000 votes. Hofer may be telling people to be calm to prevent violence. But everything points to fraud as it did in Scotland.

We will publish the BREXIT report next week. If the Brits vote to leave, Europe collapses. The EU needs Britain desperately. Why keep the pound at all? There is no point. They should just jump in pool. Why just put your big toe in? This is the 43 year target for the Britain joining the EU back in 1973. This may end up as the final nail in the British coffin of empire. They even paid S&P to say if the Brits vote to exit, they will remove the pound as a major reserve currency, which is a joke. Why? The S&P are always paid and say whatever the highest bidder demands. Cameron has pulled out absolutely everyone to say Britain must stay. Unfortunately, he is betraying his own country. S&P’s statement is meaningless. They are a rating agency who has joined the “club” and their performance in 2007 giving AAA ratings to junk bonds that blew up the world proved that. I personally believe the S&P is not to be trusted.

1992PRES

1996PRES

2000PRESHere was the computer projection for the 1992 and 1996 Presidential elections showed that the Democrats should have won the popular vote. Clinton won both elections.Now look at the 2000 Presidential election. Our model projected a Democratic victory which would have been Al Gore over Bush. As we know, they refused to recount the Florida vote and it ended up in the Supreme Court which ruled along party lines.

After the election, the votes were correctly counted. They indeed showed that Gore should have won. Our model does not forecast the rigging, but who should win. I can say in the case of Scotland, Austria and the upcoming BREXIT, all three should have been against the EU. That said, the likelihood of allowing the British to leave is highly doubtful for Brussels will collapse.

BREXIT Report CoverThat is why so many are chiming in to keep Britain in the EU. All their reasoning is nonsense. This is a very sad day for Britain. It will see its independence slip away into thin air. You cannot save the EU. This is like someone falls off the cliff so you jump as well to hold their hand on the way down.

The EU is a total failure. This federalization of Europe is a deliberate utopia for politicians with high paying jobs, tax exemptions, and the people have no possible ability to ever vote for a policy change. This is the most anti-democratic structure ever thought of in Western culture.

We will issue a special report on THE FATE OF BRITAIN. This will be available next week. It is a very important report looking at Britain and what lies ahead covering the pound, pound/euro, and the FTSE.

France Socialist Trade Unions Refusing to Reform – Civil Unrest Erupting


French Unions

Our sources in France are unanimously warning that a major socialist union uprising is building in France and could erupt rapidly. The unions in France are notorious for being the most socialist, highly Marxist, in the entire world. To get their demands, they will go anything. They even kidnapped the head of Goodyear until he yielded to their demands. They act more like Stalinist rebels who ignore laws and it is always just about them. Employers are evil capitalists in their book.
This time the uprising is building over proposed labor regulation reform supported by Hollande, who is a socialist himself. President Francois Hollande’s government realizes that France is doomed internationally and unemployment will only rise. His labor reforms are designed to make it easier for companies to hire and fire employees. As it stands, it is next to impossible to fire anyone. As a result, companies are not hiring.

Even the socialist MPs refused to vote for it. In France, if Parliament does not do what the President commands, he need not rely upon them. Prime minister Manuel Valls employed a constitutional tool that allows him to bypass the parliament altogether. This has now resulted in rising social unrest. A real confrontation is building. The question is can France become competitive globally at all?

The trade unions are beginning to block fuel supply to shut down the country. They managed to shut down five refineries. They are also looking to suspend nuclear power plants until they get their demands. If you are looking to fly to Paris, forget it. They will shut down the airports, the trains and all the public transports in Paris as well. Even the
agricultural unions may join the movement. The unions are promising unprecedented violence the first week of June.

Hollande is losing support and he is also unlikely to survive elections next year. The French, like everywhere else, are fed up with government. Th unions do not want to give anything back in France so this will contribute to the overall bearish view for the Euro moving ahead.
The fraud in Austrian elections that the “establishment” candidate wins by a mere 31,000 votes to keep Austria in the EU is also fueling the sentiment throughout Europe that any hope of a fair election to regain one’s country is not realistic. The French are worried that the 2017 elections will be rigged as well.

All our direct sources in France are warning that the country is disgusted by Hollande and the “establishment” government in power.

Fareed Zakaria -vs- Donald Trump Regarding Islam…


I have two answers to the insanity that Islam has anything to do with peace; and I have spent hundreds of hours studying this subject such that I known more about Islam than most Muslims.

The Koran, the Hadith, the Sira and Sharia Law define Islam therefore by definition Islam is not compatible with anything American and therefore Trump is right again!

President Obama Visits Vietnam – Poses For Picture With Ho Chi Minh Statue…


Obama apologizes to everyone for all the bad things that we have done. One wonders if he can ever admit that we did anything good or right; I don’t think he can.

BREXIT: What Would Happen to Brits Living in EU?


BREXIT On Schedule

QUESTION: Mr. Armstrong; The scaremongering going on here is claiming that if BREXIT becomes reality, we will be thrown out of Europe and have to pay massively for healthcare outside of Britain. Do you have any information on this?

Thank you

A former neighbor

DS

ANSWER: There is something most Europeans are clueless about. The EU is by no means a free deal for all. The EU will be in dire straights if BREXIT goes through. Britain will be in far better shape than Europe. The EU will most likely offer the UK a European Economic Area (EEA) deal, which would have no impact on Brits at all. What is that? An EEA option will have virtually no effect on expats living in the EU. There is no doubt that single market participation will not change for the EU would be shooting itself in the head.

As for the question of healthcare, I do not doubt that they are lying about that as well. Currently, anyone from Britain living in Europe on a pension receives free healthcare. It is true that this is not the case outside the EU. However, unknown to most, the UK currently pays a large sum to countries in the EEA to cover British healthcare. For example, the British Department of Health already reimburses other EEA countries as well as Switzerland for the cost of providing treatment to people for under EU law, irrespective of nationality. The likelihood of that ending is probably nil for it would mean any EU citizen would be denied healthcare in Britain.

I seriously doubt that leaving the EU would disturb trade or healthcare. The net effect of BREXIT would retain independence of London as a financial center, eliminate the necessity to open its borders, and exit the likelihood of the Bank of England being subordinated to the ECB, which will come, not to mention freedom for its own taxes and regulation. Despite the “scaremongering”, Britain would get the benefits of trading with the EU without surrendering its sovereignty to an unelected bureaucracy that the people would have no possible way to disagree with, outside of war.

The Disturbing Riddles of Egypt Air Flight 804 Continue…


The pilot of Flight 804 decided to be an Islamic martyr and crash the plane just like others have done — could be a new way to kill lots of people which is what the Muslims like to do.

Austrian Elections Today Too Close to Call!


Election-5-22-2016

The people who count the votes claim the election is a dead-heat in Austria today. Norbert Hofer of the Freedom Party and Alexander Van der Bellen are each on 50%, according to the estimate, which includes postal votes not yet counted. The pools really put Hofer ahead, so there may be some voting counting issued, Stalin fashion. Nevertheless,  what this is demonstrating is that 50% of the people are fed up with the EU. Instead to addressing the crisis, those in Brussels refuse to ever change course.

1,400 Years of Islamic Inbreeding


A Danish professor reported some time ago on the results of 1400 years of Islamic inbreeding and the policy of allowing up to 4 wives along with the allowed breeding female slaves. Many others have also observed and written about the results of these practices but it is not PC to talk about them. The results are stark as explained in the balance of this post.

When Muslims men in Saudi Arabia are asked why they marry their first cousins?  All of them told us it’s to keep the wealth within the family and that the Prophet allows them to do this.  There is one town in Saudi Arabia where there are only two last names listed for all its citizens. And the answer to this question came from a Lockheed employee who has had three assignments to Saudi Arabia.

During the pilot transition program with the KV-107 and C-130 with Lockheed, we found that most Saudi pilot trainees had very limited night vision, even on the brightest of moonlit nights. Their training retention rate was minimal, including maintenance personnel.

Some had dim memories and had to be constantly reminded of things that were told to them the day before.  An American, British or any other western instructor is burned out pretty quick.  It actually took Muslim C-130 pilots years before they could fly in the dark safely and then would be reluctant to leave the lights of a city.  Ask any Marine, Air Force or Army guy who’s been trying to train Iraqis – and especially Afghans.

Islam is not only a religion; it’s a way of life all the way a around.  Yet another set of revealing facts about Muslim beliefs and traditions and ways of life.  1,400 years of inbreeding.  I found this to be interesting.  Didn’t know whether to believe it or not.  To research I went to Wikipedia, “Cousin Marriage,” and far down in the article “Genetics” it seems there is a lot of truth here.  A huge Muslim problem:  Inbreeding.

Nikolai Sennels is a Danish psychologist who has done extensive research into a little-known problem in the Muslim world:  The disastrous results of Muslim inbreeding brought about by the marriage of first cousins.

This practice, which has been prohibited in the Judeo-Christian tradition since the days of Moses, was sanctioned by Muhammad and has been going on now for 50 generations (1,400 years) in the Muslim world.  This practice of inbreeding will never go away in the Muslim world, since Muhammad is the ultimate example and authority on all matters, including marriage.

The massive inbreeding in Muslim culture may well have done virtually irreversible damage to the Muslim gene pool, including extensive damage to its intelligence, sanity and health.  Per Sennels, close to half of all Muslims in the world are inbred.  In Pakistan, the numbers approach 70%.  Even in England, more than half of Pakistani immigrants are married to their first cousins, and in Denmark the number of inbred Pakistani immigrants is around 40%.  The numbers are equally devastating in other important Muslim countries:  67% in Saudi Arabia, 64% in Jordan and Kuwait, 63% in Sudan, 60% in Iraq, and 54% in the United Arab Emirates and Qatar.Per the BBC, this Pakistani, Muslim-inspired inbreeding is thought to explain the probability that a British Pakistani family is more than 13 times as likely to have children with recessive genetic disorders.  While Pakistanis are responsible for three percent of the births in the UK, they account for 33% of children with genetic birth defects.

The risks of what are called autosomal recessive disorders; such as, cystic fibrosis, spinal muscular atrophy, is 18 times higher, and the risk of death due to malformations is 10 times higher.  Other negative consequences of inbreeding include a 100 percent increase in the risk of stillbirths and a 50% increase in the possibility that a child will die during labor.

Lowered intellectual capacity is another devastating consequence of Muslim marriage patterns.  Per Sennels, research shows that children of consanguineous marriages lose 10-16 points off their IQ and that social abilities develop much slower in inbred babies.  The risk of having an IQ lower than 70, the official demarcation for being classified as “retarded,” increases by an astonishing 400 percent among children of cousin marriages.  (Similar effects were seen in the Paranoiac dynasties in ancient Egypt and in the British royal family, where inbreeding was the norm for a significant period of time.)

In Denmark, non-Western immigrants are more than 300 percent more likely to fail the intelligence test required for entrance into the Danish army.  Sennels says, “The ability to enjoy and produce knowledge and abstract thinking is simply lower in the Islamic world.”  He points out that the Arab world translates just 330 books every year, about 20% of what Greece alone does.

In the last 1,200 years of Islam, just 100,000 books have been translated into Arabic, about what Spain does in a single year.  Seven out of 10 Turks have never even read a book.  Sennels points out the difficulties this creates for Muslims seeking to succeed in the West.  “A lower IQ, together with a religion that denounces critical thinking, surely makes it harder for many Muslims to have success in our high-tech knowledge societies.”  Only nine Muslims have ever won the Nobel Prize, and five of those were for the “Peace Prize.” Per Nature magazine, Muslim countries produce just 10 percent of the world average when it comes to scientific research measured by articles per million inhabitants.

In Denmark, Sennels’ native country, Muslim children are grossly over represented among children with special needs.  One-third of the budget for Danish schools is consumed by special education, and anywhere from 51% to 70% of retarded children with physical handicaps in Copenhagen have an immigrant background.  Learning ability is severely affected as well.  Studies indicated that 64% of schoolchildren with Arabic parents are still illiterate after 10 years in the Danish school system.  The immigrant dropout rate in Danish high schools is twice that of the native-born.

Mental illness is also a product.  The closer the blood relative, the higher the risk of schizophrenic illness.  The increased risk of insanity may explain why more than 40% of patients in Denmark’s biggest ward for clinically insane criminals have an immigrant background.  The U.S. is not immune.  Per Sennels, “One study based on 300,000 Americans shows that the majority of Muslims in the USA have a lower income, are less educated, and have worse jobs than the population as a whole.”

Sennels concludes:  There is no doubt that the wide spread tradition of first cousin marriages among Muslims has harmed the gene pool among Muslims. Because Muslims’ religious beliefs prohibit marrying non-Muslims and thus prevents them from adding fresh genetic material to their population, the genetic damage done to their gene pool since their prophet allowed first cousin marriages 1,400 years ago are most likely massive. This has produced overwhelming direct and indirect human and societal consequences.

Bottom line:  Islam is not simply a benign and morally equivalent alternative to the Judeo-Christian tradition.  As Sennels points out, the first and biggest victims of Islam are Muslims.  Simple Judeo-Christian compassion for Muslims and a common-sense desire to protect Western civilization from the ravages of Islam dictate a vigorous opposition to the spread of this dark and dangerous religion.  These stark realities must be taken into account when we establish public polices dealing with immigration from Muslim countries and the building  of mosques in the U.S.

Let us hope the civilized West and the North Americans wake up before a blind naiveté about the reality of Islam destroys what remains of our Judeo-Christian culture and our domestic tranquility.
