Apple Wins Against FBI in Drug Case
Armstrong Economics Blog
Re-Posted Mar 3, 2016 by Martin Armstrong
The government is demanding Apple to create a program to hack phones under the excuse of “terrorism” as a threat to national security. The FBI in New York ordered Apple to unlock the phone of a local drug dealer, but Apple refused. On Monday, a federal magistrate judge in New York said no. Magistrate Judge James Orenstein denied the FBI’s request as part of the criminal case against Jun Feng, who had already pleaded guilty in October to drug charges. The FBI’s request as part of a drug case clearly shows what they are up to. The government wants to eliminate all encryption for anyone suspected of any crime, which would include taxes.
Apple is correct. There will be no end in sight if they create hacking software for the government. Once you establish a precedent, then they will apply it to every type of crime right down to just “investigating” if you owe taxes. There need not be any charges. All they would need to do is claim in court that they “suspect” there is a crime. That is how the system works.
In my own case, the government demanded I turn over all the tapes I had on the market manipulations by the New York banks. The excuse? Perhaps they might lead to missing assets. The bank later pleaded guilty and returned the “missing assets.” Of course, they never prosecute the banks in New York. They will say anything to get whatever it is they want, but they will NEVER say the truth. Apple is defending a major issue here and our freedom depends on it. This is NOT about a single phone in a terrorist case. They will expand this precedent to everything.

U.K. Prime Minister Tony Blair has recognized something those in office either do not see or refuse to admit. Blair said at the Abu Dhabi that Donald Trump’s wins in the U.S. primary elections are disturbing for they illustrate that there is a rising popularity of insurgent political movements around the world. The mismanagement of decades of career politicians and the total state of complete corruption in every branch of government is pushing the population to rise up against the establishment everywhere. Blair told the conference: “Sometimes I look at politics today and wonder if I still understand it.”
Meanwhile, establishment Republicans are now vowing to stop Trump. They say he is no “conservative” but in fact what they really say off camera is he is not one of them. They are scared to death that if Trump gets in, it will not be business as usual. This is the civil war building. It is career politicians against the people. They are personalizing this as Donald Trump rather than looking broadly that Trump is just Ross Perot 2.0. It could be anyone who is an outsider. Trump just has the money to fund this without selling his soul to the elite political pacs.

Moody’s Warns of 30% Rise in Commodity Based Company Bankruptcies in 2016

Re-Posted Mar 2, 2016 by Martin Armstrong
The Commodity industry is bracing for a high year of bankruptcy and default filings impacting mining & metals along with oil & gas. Moody’s has also warned of global speculative-grade corporate defaults will increase by more than 30% in 2016 reaching the highest level since 2009. Those interested in mining shares should pay close attention to what you are buying. Until gold crosses that key resistance, we still have only a typical 3 month reaction. A rally must extend beyond March to be impressive.

Moody’s lowers outlook on China’s credit rating to negative from stable. We have been warning that our models on China indicate that the bottom in the economy does not appear likely until 2020. This should be a 13 year contraction. So far that forecast appears to be on target.
The Unfolding Pension Crisis
Armstrong Economics Blog
Re- Posted Mar 2, 2016 by Martin Armstrong
Part of the collapse in confidence we are experiencing with government stems directly from the fact that politicians engage in far more criminal behavior than anyone in the corporate world. While bankers may manipulate markets to trade against clients, politicians just lie to keep their jobs. The fact that they are incapable of managing the country, no less the economy, is coming to a head. The pension crisis we face emerges from all the promises of socialism. The crisis sprung from the fact that they don’t fund much of their promises and just assume there are enough schmucks to tax.
What played out in Detroit was critical but they ignored the problem. Pensions exceeded 50% of the budget and the city could not raise taxes because people just left town. Now in Kansas, workers are discovering that after 33 years they are facing a 51% cut to their pensions. The Central States Pension Fund that covers 400,000 participants (220,000 of them are retired) will go completely bust within 10 years.
This story will replay over and over again throughout the country on the other side of 2017.9 (Nov 24/25, 2017). We should begin to read more and more about this problem when we pass 2016.825 (October 28, 2016).
