\nOn March 18, 1990, the painting was stolen by thieves disguised as police officers. They broke into the Isabella Stewart Gardener Museum in Boston, MA, and stole this painting, along with 12 other works. The paintings have never been recovered, and it is considered the biggest art theft in history. The empty frames still hang in their original location.<\/center>
<\/center>This is an article written by Dr. D, who last month wrote a series at the Automatic Earth entitled Bitcoin Doesn\u2019t Exist<\/a>.<\/p>\n

It shouldn\u2019t surprise you that bitcoin plays a cameo in his Modest -but actually quite grand- Plan as well.<\/p>\n

<\/center>Dr. D: <\/b><\/i>With all the talk about the bubble market, people are once again saying Donald Trump is a fool, he should never have taken credit for a Dow that\u2019s about to collapse. In addition, how does he think he can get away with claiming we have a great economy made greater? He said in the election the economy was terrible and the Dow was a bubble, that\u2019s why he won.<\/p>\n

But hold on: you have to remember, they\u2019re politicians; they may be dishonest but they\u2019re not stupid. Let\u2019s try a scenario to see what they\u2019re thinking:<\/p>\n

We have a situation in the U.S. where 100 million people are out of the workforce, the real economy is on life-support, debt is crushing, and monetary velocity is at an all-time low. The Fed\u2019s every effort at market-rigging, lowering rates and pumping in money, bailing out the banks and giving unearned interest for Fed deposits have run up both the housing market and the stock market, neither of which is their legal mandate. If either one goes higher, they\u2019ll pop as workers, particularly millennials, have no income to buy houses, and stocks are levitating on just 5 insider-paid FAANG stocks.<\/p>\n
