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.

Scott Ritter, August 28, 2023:
“Occam’s razor holds that the solution to a problem that has the smallest possible set of elements is more likely than not the likely solution. Getting a bomb implanted on a highly secured aircraft at the last second requires many elements to come together. However, in the case of Prigozhin’s security detail, the “bomb” could have been placed on the aircraft void of any conspiracy—one need only consider the arms, munitions, and pyrotechnics/explosives such a detail would carry with them. The possibility of an error being made while loading these weapons, and as such creating the possibility of an accidental explosion while the aircraft was airborne, cannot be discounted.”
Vladimir Putin, September 5, 2023:
“The head of the Investigative Committee reported to me just the other day that fragments of a hand grenade were found in the bodies of those killed in the plane crash; there was no external influence on the plane.”

Ivan Katchanovski@I_Katchanovski
“Ivan Katchanovski, a political scientist at the University of Ottawa, has done extensive research into the Maidan uprising of 2013-14. His research points to elements in the far-right, the OUN’s ideological progeny, as culpable for much of the violence that led to the collapse of Yanukovych’s government and the ensuing, spiraling chaos that has beset Ukraine.
“Careful analysis of publicly available evidence revealed during the Maidan massacre trials and investigations, shows beyond reasonable doubt that the four killed and several dozen wounded policemen, and nearly all of the 49 killed [on February 20, 2014] and 157 wounded Maidan protesters, were shot by snipers in Maidan-controlled buildings and areas,” wrote Katchanovski in a recent research paper. “The far-right involvement in the Maidan massacre of the police and the protesters and the failure to investigate, prosecute, and punish the far right for this mass killing resulted in the far right attaining oversize influence in Ukrainian politics and de facto immunity for other violence or threats of violence.”” https://scoop.co.nz/stories/HL2310

Chrystia Freeland’s responsibility as Canada’s Deputy Prime Minister and Finance Minister is to Canadians and that means to all Canadians. This shouldn’t even be up to debate. The Globe and Mail headline from earlier today, where she once again blamed Putin / Russia for the gross misconduct of our parliamentarians, is the usual rinse and repeat cycle that this tiny tyrant “weaponizes” against those who keep demanding some clarity on reoccurring issues that can no longer be discounted as coincidences or as Russian disinformation.

The European Union, as promised, is showering Ukraine with gold. But there is a nuance. The head of diplomacy of the European Union (EU), Josep Borrell, said that recent events in the United States indicate the uncertainty of Washington’s funding of the Armed Forces of of Ukraine. According to him, this increases the EU’s responsibility in this matter in the future. “In the short term, we will not be able to compensate for the lack of US support; we expect that our friends and allies will quickly find ways out of the impasse,” he said. Borrell also stressed that the total financial obligations of the European Union and member countries towards Kyiv amount to 82 billion euros. This includes 25 billion euros for military spending. https://t.me/vicktop55/17543

Let’s rebuild Ukraine:
Now that the US Govt has openly betrayed you and kicked you into the dust you should feel no shame in seeking solutions that are best for Ukraine and that don’t involve unreliable partners that have abused you as a hammering ram against Russia.
The US orchestrated a coup d’etat in your country to install a puppet regime with the help of Nazi groups. The snipers that killed 100 Ukrainians during the Maidan protests were hired by them to turn the peaceful protests violent. Everything that followed was to prepare Ukraine for war with Russia. You have been abused as a geo-strategic toy by the US Govt to contain Russia and China and their multipolar plans.
The best outcome at this time is a partnership with the multipolar world to facilitate a peace agreement with Russia. If Ukraine would become a key partner in the Belt and Road Initiative I’m certain that China would help to rebuild Ukraine and ask the other BRICS countries to assist.
If Ukraine is willing to abandon the US and its vassals it can become an example of recovery and economic growth in the multipolar world. China and other BRICS countries would invest heavily to rebuild Ukraine just to make a point to the rest of the world that the days of Western bullying and exploitation are numbered.
Normalizing relations with Russia will take time. But let’s stop the war and then focus on making Ukraine a hub for the East to do business with whatever remains of the EU.
It would be my honor to help Ukraine to achieve these goals as a strategic advisor, free of charge.
