Comments on the Current U.S. Budget Debate
(https://www.epicoalition.org/docs/comm.html)
The assumptions underlying the current budget debate are erroneous….
It is only after the deficit begins to expand again that the economy recovers. The historical correlation is 100%….
Contrary to general perception, fiat money is driven by the fact that taxpayers need the government’s money to pay their taxes. … so it can obtain the real goods and services it desires via the spending of its currency.
…. Treasury spending is a reserve add. Selling securities, by the Fed or Treasury, is simply a reserve drain, a monetary operation. This underlies the empirical evidence that nations can run any debt ratios they want, in their own fiat currencies, and still “fund the debt.”
How large a deficit is prudent? …., the government could offer a job to anyone who wanted one, at some minimum rate of pay deemed appropriate, and let the deficit float. This would end unemployment and unemployment compensation, eliminate the need for minimum wage laws, and promote price stability,…
The Federal debt is all the money spent but not taxed. …
The current budget debate is based on erroneous assumptions. Washington does not understand fiat money. Until it does, efforts to reduce the deficit will continue, and the economy will continue to underperform.

MFA Spox #Zakharova: A year ago, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki said that the use of cluster munitions was a war crime. She said this clearly and openly. There are videos of her saying this. Less than a year later, the US sent cluster munitions to the Kiev regime. Well, do they regard this as a war crime and themselves as war criminals? No, of course not. Anyone but them can be declared a war criminal.

If the world were democratic, this would happen since it is was the overwhelming majority of the world’s population wants.
But the West, led by the US, under the Orwellian guise of a fight of “democracy vs autocracy” is committed to prevent this from happening and sustain the West-led global order.
Meaning the fight they brand “democracy vs autocracy” is essentially all about sustaining an autocratic, unfair and plundering world order.

When will Americans finally leave their delusional bubble and realize that the overwhelming majority of the world’s population doesn’t consider the US-led world order “the free world” but the very contrary of it.
In fact most countries firmly believe that the alternative multilateral world order that China calls for is immensely more free, fairer, and more democratic in nature than the US’s “rules based order”.
As a matter of fact, the G77+China, representing 80% of the world’s population (!) just met this weekend in Cuba to call for an end of what America calls “the free world” and ask for a genuinely free world…
Thinking about it, this guy’s call to “excise” the Chinese (a medical term that means to surgically remove a malign object like a tumor) from the “free world” is extremely characteristic of their “free world”: a world where the Americans decide everything based on their collective paranoia of the day, the rest of the world and their interests be damned.

No. We cannot go to war with China. I’ve tried to make this clear, but there are a bunch of neocons who think otherwise. To go to war with China is to doom the human race with nuclear armageddon. That said, we need to excise them from our society. What does that mean? A Cold War, where we do not let them have access to ANY aspect of the free world. They (the CCP) will eventually crumble because humans do but thrive in top down systems. Only by leveraging other systems can they survive. We hold the key to their (the CCP’s) survival. Never forget that!

These vehicles got obliterated by Russia in the opening days of the super duper counter offensive. The French MIC told Ukraine to stop using the AMX the way it was meant to be used and to just have it sit back, fire from a distance, and remain intact. Ukraine is holding back donated NATO tanks and vehicles to protect MIC sales and instead sending soldiers forward on foot. Russia daily loses all time low. Ukraine daily loses all time high.
Forbes: The Ukrainian marine corps is using its French-made AMX-10RC reconnaissance vehicles as artillerydeploying them behind the front line and leisurely aiming their 105-millimeter guns at Russian positions. It’s obvious the AMX-10RCs aren’t in much danger from return fire. They’re far enough from the enemy that they can shoot and scoot before anyone shoots back.

@RobertKennedyJr talks to Russell Brand about how the NSA was in charge of Operation Warp Speed, the history of the United States bioweapons program, and why Anthony Fauci is the highest-paid government official in history:
“The weird thing about the pandemic was this constant involvement by the CIA, the intelligence agencies, and the military. When Operation Warp Speed made its presentation to the FDA committee called VRBPAC…
It shocked everybody because it wasn’t HHS, CDC, NIH, FDA, or a public health agency. It was the NSA,
a spy agency that was the top agency that led Operation Warp Speed, and the second agency was the Pentagon.
The vaccines were developed not by Moderna and Pfizer. They were developed by NIH. The patents are owned 50% by NIH. Nor were they manufactured by Pfizer or by Moderna.
They were manufactured by military contractors, and basically, Pfizer and Moderna were paid to put their stamps on those vaccines as if they came from the pharmaceutical industry. This was a military project from the beginning.
One of the things I uncovered in my book is twenty different simulations of coronavirus and pandemics that started in 2001. The first one was right before the anthrax attacks, and the CIA sponsored them all.
The last one was Event 201, which was in October 2019. One of the participants was Avril Haines, the former Deputy Director of the CIA, who has been managing coverups her entire life. She did the Guantanamo Bay and others.
She is now the Director of National Intelligence, which makes her the highest-ranking officer at the NSA, which managed the pandemic… All of these simulations were about how you use the pandemic to clamp down on censorship. How do you use it to force lockdowns.”

Today is the 75th anniversary of the formation of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). In those 75 years, the agency has wreaked havoc across the world, especially in Africa. To the CIA, revolutionary Pan-African leaders like Kwame Nkrumah were a threat that needed to be ‘neutralised’. Even their words were perceived to threaten the U.S. establishment – don’t take our word for it; take it from Kwame Nkrumah’s editorial assistant, June Milne. She says his book ‘Neo-Colonialism, The Last Stage of Imperialism’ spurred the U.S. into sponsoring the coup that removed him. It caused such a stir on its release that America cancelled its aid to Ghana before the CIA sponsored a coup to remove Nkrumah from office.
