The Truth About U.S. Crude Storage

The American Story Is A Mystery Only to Economists

Special Report: Is It Time To Prepare For War?
Special Report: Is It Time To Prepare For War? From my perspective, the made-for-public Western news copy regarding Ukraine and Russia is childishly slanted and one-sided. The level of so-called aggression by Russia cannot even remotely be compared to the United States’ naked aggression against Iraq – a country that had not attacked the US, […]
The Last Time Gas Prices Rose This Fast, The US Entered Recession
The Last Time Gas Prices Rose This Fast, The US Entered Recession From February through May, gas prices have historically tended to rise.

US plan to drop Russia from global banking system hilariously backfires

Russia is once again Arch-Enemy of the United States. It’s like living through a really bad James Bond movie, complete with cartoonish […]
The Prosthetic Imagination

The first news story followed the official announcement that the official unemployment rate here in the United States dropped to 5.5% last month. This […]
Currency Wars… Are Not Working
Currency Wars… Are Not Working While none of the current batch of currency-devaluing Central Bankers would admit that their policies are designed to weaken the currency, enhance competitiveness, and hail a new bright future of growth for their nation (by printing money), it is clear that is the chosen textbook-based path chosen. However, as the following […]
US Sends Over 100 US Tanks, Armor To Latvia As Nuland “Confirms” Russia Delivering Weapons
US Sends Over 100 US Tanks, Armor To Latvia As Nuland “Confirms” Russia Delivering Weapons No lesser trustworthy character than Assistant Secretary of State Victoria Nuland explained this morning that the US can “confirm” new Russian weapons delivery to Ukraine and that they “can tell” when Russia sends in new weapons (though offering no explanation of this statement). This […]

The Origin of the ‘New Cold War’ This will be history, replacing myth. So: if at the start it might seem unbelievable, I request the reader — please click onto the sources; and, as you read them, you will (if you have been getting your ‘news’ from the popular mainstream and ‘alternative’ ‘news’ sources) experience […]
Oil Producers Could See “Regime Change”: Bloomberg
Oil Producers Could See “Regime Change”: Bloomberg As we’ve noted previously, the US-Saudi joint effort to force the Kremlin into cutting Assad loose (the end goal of course being to install a government that will acquiesce to mainlining Qatari natural gas through Syria straight into Europe thus breaking Gazprom’s stranglehold), has resulted in a bit of collateral […]

The Breakdown Of U.S.-Israeli Relations Brings Us Several Steps Closer To World War III In the past 40 years, we have never been closer to World War III than we are today. If you ask Americans to name what area of the globe they believe World War III will begin, the number one choice by […]
