The first 12 months of the U.S. recession saw the economy shrink more than twice as much as previously estimated, reflecting even bigger declines in consumer spending and housing, revised figures showed.
The world’s largest economy contracted 1.9 percent from the fourth quarter of 2007 to the last three months of 2008, compared with the 0.8 percent drop previously on the books, the Commerce Department said today in Washington
Remember the fairy tale about AIG being an otherwise healthy insurance company that just got a little crazy selling credit default swaps? Well, it's time to put that one to rest. snippet..
Regulators have been turning a blind eye to this sort of thing because they are worried about putting the taxpayer investment in AIG at risk.
Read that again: we invested billions in AIG and now we can't properly regulate it without putting that investment at risk. It's a brand new type of regulatory capture. Great work, team.
What conspiracy buffs are doing is taking any world event and

part of the secret plan to destroy capitalism.
If it rains, it's because the Trilateralists want a flood. If it

June 27 (Bloomberg) -- The dollar declined the most against
the euro in a month and dropped versus the yen after China
repeated its call for a new global currency.
The Swiss franc declined against the euro and dollar this
week as foreign-exchange analysts said the central bank sold its
currency three times to support the economy. The greenback fell
against most of its major counterparts after the People’s Bank
of China said yesterday the International Monetary Fund should
manage more of members’ foreign-exchange reserves.
“The dollar’s status as a reserve currency is being
questioned,” said Benedikt Germanier, a foreign-exchange
strategist in Stamford, Connecticut at UBS AG, the second-
largest currency trader. “There are reasons to sell the
dollar.”
The U.S. currency fell 0.9 percent to $1.4056 per euro this
week from $1.3937 on June 19, the swiftest depreciation since
the five days ended May 29. The dollar fell 1.1 percent to 95.18

The U.S. Army owns
nearly 10 million acres of land across the U.S., and it wants more in
remote southeastern Colorado, which it says is ideal for intense combat
training. The
problem is that much of that prairie is owned by ranchers who have run
cattle across the plains for generations. And they have balked at
turning over their range land to Uncle Sam.
The bulk of recent foreclosures was on prime, fixed-rate loans, extended to the most credit-worthy borrowers and the bedrock of home ownership in America.
Do you want to know the safe alternative to warding off disease that does not include taking a poisonous vaccine? That alternative is a healthy immune system. By eating factory processed foods that contain preservatives, GMOs and all sorts of artificial ingredients, we are weakening our immune systems and leaving ourselves open to all sorts of illnesses.
Billy Mays, the burly, bearded television pitchman whose boisterous hawking of products such as Orange Glo, OxiClean and ESPN made him a pop-culture icon, died today. He was 50.
Tampa police said Mays was found unresponsive by his wife, Deborah Mays, this morning. A fire rescue crew pronounced him dead at 7:45 a.m. Investigators do not suspect foul play, said Lt. Brian Dugan of the Tampa Police Department.
The DHS — at the behest of the ADL — has accomplished its essential work of demonizing constitutionalists and patriot groups and individuals as domestic terrorists.
But seller of 'Obama's birth certificate' dodges administrators to post 3rd time. An eBay seller who previously promised to deliver a certified copy of President Obama's actual birth certificate – from a hospital in Mombasa, Kenya – has twice had his listing removed from the popular auction website. In a third listing, however, the seller calling himself "colmado_naranja" has explained why the birth certificate was twice yanked by eBay administration.
One out of four defaults on mortgage loans is “strategic,” a new study says, due to a mortgage’s value exceeding the value of a house even if the homeowner can afford to pay.
Notably, an experiment reported in March ... demonstrated that some of the brain’s decision-making circuitry showed signs of money illusion on images from a brain scanner.
Nowhere in the Constitution is there a guaranteed freedom from being
offended. It is not a right that comes with American citizenship, like
the right to vote. Just the opposite. If the Constitution had a warning
label, it would read: Caution, your right to freedom of speech means
others have a parallel right, which is highly likely to occasionally
provoke anger, annoyance, disgust and offense.

More than a dozen soldiers arrested President Manuel Zelaya and

Additionally, the phenomenal spike in call option volume two months ago in insurance companies before it was announced they would all become eligble for TARP was about as fraudulent as one can imagine, and yet neither the SEC or FINRA have done anything
Not what the American people ordered - HR 2749, martial law and the enslavement of their farmers. HR 2749 is a strange bill in many ways. While the other “food safety” bills have been around since winter, allowing for much public discussion on the internet, HR 2749 has only suddenly appeared. It is a mutant conglomeration of the worst of the other bills, with the addition of one very original part – martial law.
Panelists warn of the revival of eugenics under Obama’s modern

HR 2454 RECORDED VOTE 26-Jun-2009 7:17 PM
BILL TITLE: American Clean Energy and Security Act
The following republicans voted FOR the largest tax bill ever passed by a session of Congress.
As Democrats strained to win over crucial holdouts on the way to narrow, party-line approval of global warming legislation, they were dogged by a critical question: Has the political climate changed since 1993? Veteran members of both parties vividly remember when many House Democrats, in the early months of the Clinton administration, reluctantly backed a proposed B.T.U. tax — a new levy on each unit of energy consumed — only to see it ignored by the Senate and seized as a campaign issue by Republicans, who took control of the House the next year.
Scott Painter makes his living betting on startup companies, having played a role in launching 29 of them over the years. But with the bad economy choking initial public offerings and acquisitions, Painter is now backing an idea that makes it easier for insiders like him to sell shares in their companies even before they go public.
Moving as quickly as he can to gut the USA and then divide its body parts amongst like-minded globalists, the USA’s Supreme Leader Barack Hussein Obama used the G-20 conference to begin his turnover of USA sovereignty to said internationalists and start the move toward a one-world government. Obama has signed off on international legislation—the Financial Stability Board—that would regulate ALL firms, including those within the USA and places them under the responsibility of an international governmental agency.
HR 1966 has cleared the House and now faces the Senate as S.909, the Matthew Shepard Hate Crimes Prevention Act (officially, the Local Law Enforcement Hate Crimes Prevention Act). The bill is expected to sail through the Senate
Until recently, the TSA has been a domestic legal Guantanamo, and the
TSA has treated their domain of “checkpoints” and travel control and
surveillance as a law-free zone where their powers of search, seizure,
detention, and denial of passage were unconstrained by the
Constitution, human rights treaties,
judicial review, or stautory or regulatory standards. As indeed it has
been: Congress has enacted no law specifically defining any limits on
the authority of TSA agents at checkpoints (or elsewhere), and the TSA
itself has never conducted any rulemaking or issued any
publicly-disclosed regulations defining its authority, its limits, what
orders travellers do or don’t have to comply with, and which forms of
“noncooperation” are considered grounds for which sanctions
