After Keynes’ work was published the politicians knew they has a winner for Keynes add the Government to the calculations to determine GDP. That and tell them politicians that savings was bad as you needed to spend every penny if you wanted full employment. Well that was it a license to spend and spend and a theory that claimed it was OK. So what if now we know better, well some of us do, it doesn’t mater the politicians knows that no one is smart enough to realize its a Ponzi scheme and we are at the end where the chickens come home to roost!

Using SIM Cards To Track Everyone
Armstrong Economics Blog
Re-Posted Sep 4, 2016 by Martin Armstrong

Thailand is looking to issue SIM cards to all tourists to protect national security. They say they will be able to respond to tourists in trouble, but they are really looking to track everyone because of the rising threat of Islamic extremism. Domestically, you are already being tracked. Google wants to “verify” who you are by using your phone. The police can and do track people they intend to arrest by using their cell phone. So while many people are shocked by this proposal, the difference would be to only force tourists to use their sim or they could simply take your phone number and track you by using your current sim card. Welcome to the new age of global tracking.
People are still unaware that the tracking system that reads license plates is nationwide. Many places just take your license plate and bill you for tolls. But pull in a parking garage at an airport and you will see cameras taking a picture of your license plate. Lose your ticket and they can tell you the time you arrived and where your car is parked. They are doing this in Europe as well as the USA. We are already being tracked in every way possible.
This is why I say we MUST eliminate income taxes and return to indirect taxation. Income tax requires the tracking of everything we do, where you work, etc. Elizabeth Warren proposed that lower income people should not have to file income taxes because the government already knows everything and can easily just send you your refund check at the end of the year.
It is illegal to send large sums of money by mail for they will deem it money laundering. So far, small sums of cash are still legal, such as a gift in a birthday card. However, the maximum insurance for cash is $15. That does not mean the government employee at the post office even understands the laws and regulations.
When we tried to send Roman coins through the mail to our customers, they refused to allow us to mail them by marking them as money. Trying to explain that this was ancient money was like trying to explain physics to a two-year-old. We gave up and relabeled it as antiquities. The clash in regulations assumed our coins were “money” worth over $15, which was illegal in their minds. So yes, you cannot send even a few hundred dollars in “money” through the mail for they will call it money laundering. It is getting impossible to get off the grid as they say.
Erdogan’s Personal Quest for Power?
Armstrong Economics Blog
Re-Posted Sep 4, 2016 by Martin Armstrong
President Erdogan turning to Russia and shaking hands with President Putin in St. Petersburg should send a red light to NATO that all nukes must be withdrawn from Turkey ASAP. This reset of Russia-Turkey relations is strategic on Erdogan’s part. The joint statement indicated the two leaders’ willingness to cooperate in several fields and highlights both Moscow and Ankara’s domestic and international policy objectives. He has also sold off about 50% of US Treasuries more than any other government. You do not do that to support a currency. This is political.
President Erdogan plans to achieve his main goal of repairing the economy by entering a partnership with Moscow that will help to revive its touristic sector and develop energy projects. Yet, the more important issue is Erdogan also wants to use cooperation with Russia to turn against Europe and the USA by demanding money and the extradition of Fethullah Gülen who he wants dead as he sees him as a potential threat to his rule.
Putin naturally sees the renewed relationship with Turkey as an additional positive development in Russia’s international strategy and clearly weakens the idea that Moscow is isolated by the sanctions. It makes further sense with Putin for to get allegiance with Turkey against NATO’s southern flank is an absolute victory. It may be true that the Syrian crisis remains a dividing point between the two countries, but it may be far less than people suspect. Erdogan does not act like an elected official. This is a personal quest for power.
If the NATO nukes are not removed from Turkey, they will deeply regret what is coming down the road in the years ahead.
