    IMF's proposal to impose an additional gasoline tax in the US.... "in order to pay for social programs around the world and help the environment".

    Quote The national average for a gallon of gasoline is currently at $3.65. On top of that sky-high price, the International Monetary Fund has now proposed that the U.S. should impose a tax of $1.40 per gallon in order to pay for social programs around the world and help the environment.

    Neil Cavuto discussed this proposal with FBN's Charles Payne, who said sometimes you hear things and you just have to ask, "Are you nuts!?"

    Well you can look at it in another way.
    In Israel the question is not "if" but when.
    The fuel price in Israel is ~ 9.5$ per gallon, and is planned to rise. More then 50% from the fuel price is tax.

    At least you still have the one "red" cent in the US. In canada, we are now at 5cents rounding up, not more 1 cent.

    So, not one 5 cents to world government.

    Bank of Japan meets today under new leadership ... expecting announcements of massive QE measures and new monetary easing policies. The word is that Kuroda is Japan's new Bernanke. All this amidst what's happening on the financial front in Europe and the war front in North Korea.

    Plus, Iran announced it would comply with UN/US/Israeli demands and keep it's enriched uranium under 250 kilos -- Netanyahu's red line. Sounds fishy, I wonder if its connected with what's happening in the Pacific.

    I hear thunder.

    Thanks, World Reserve Currency, But No Thanks: Australia And China To Enable Direct Currency Convertibility



    ZeroHedge article March 31, 2013:
    Quote Posted by from the ZeroHedge website
    "A month ago we pointed out that as a result of Australia's unprecedented reliance on China as a target export market, accounting for nearly 30% of all Australian exports (with the flipside being just as true, as Australia now is the fifth-biggest source of Chinese imports), the two countries may as well be joined at the hip.

    Over the weekend, Australia appears to have come to the same conclusion, with the Australian reporting that the land down under is set to say goodbye to the world's "reserve currency" in its trade dealings with the world's biggest marginal economic power, China, and will enable the direct convertibility of the Australian dollar into Chinese yuan, without US Dollar intermediation, in the process "slashing costs for thousands of business" and also confirming speculation that China is fully intent on, little by little, chipping away at the dollar's reserve currency status until one day it no longer is."
    Source: http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2013-0...ect-currency-c


    Not a rosy scenario if your pieces of paper rely on the US currency having value.

    well penn i would like to know this stuff also, from what i know and have heard from a few source, it is created online and managed online, but u cant put u hands physically on it, so why would someone put their cash into a unit of trade that isnt really tangible? , thats just my take on it, i feel the fever for this unit of trade is being backed by alternative sources to just that- create a fever for this new unit of trade...who knows how stable it is? who knows how many may be produced, who controls it? how is it governed? what backs this unit of trade to make it worth anything at all? i am a bit suspicious but it seems this may be a new unit of trade to test the water so to speak to see if a new unit might catch on, then transferring our money to this unit of trade may be just one click away, regardless if we want to exchange to this new unit or not, scary if u ask me, why now? right when there is a ton of non-stability in the economy and banking industry , u know? i dunno just sayin, be careful and be educated, stay well bud, peace,dennis

    Here in France a whole can of worms has been opened by Jérôme Cahuzac, the former minister responsible for dealing with tax fraud admitting to being a tax fraudster to the tune of € 600,000 in a private bank account in Switzerland. We ought to find out whether this former cardiologist got his money from hair implants or from his later dealings with big pharma. More interestingly perhaps, the Swiss seem somewhat inclined to moralizing their banking system by weeding out clients who are breaking the law in their own country. We shall see.

    Please, take the time to watch this video. Then, come back and re-read the information in this thread.

    Especially if you live in America. Get up to date and up to speed. This is the most immediate thing happening right now, aside from the war fronts in Korea and the Middle East.

    When it happens, which will be soon, you're going to have a really difficult time with things that seem plentiful and readily accessible now.

    You think you're spiritual pursuits won't be affected by this? Do you really think that when this happens you'll be able sustain yourself on air and sunshine? You know, I hear a lot about manifesting your own reality. Well, how do you think your going to manifest some food to eat when this happens?

    You're not going to wish it into existence. That future manifestation begins now -- cause and effect. The Merovingian has a point in this case.

    Even if you are mentally and emotionally prepared, that's not going to put food in your stomach or water in your glass. Action needs to be taken now in order to lessen the hardships that will come.

    At least go out and buy some silver, get a backup generator, and a water purifier. If you don't think this is immediate, then by all means, put it off.

    Don't put off making a plan though, and putting it on paper.

    Shake off your normalcy bias. You think you're awake?

    My thoughts exactly. It's looking like things may be speeding up ahead of what they have planned. As far as the NWO goes. At the latest, I see the 2016 time window as when they would have been fully prepared. Their technology would have been at a comfortable point for them (surveillance, data-centers, robotics, UAVs/MAVs, RFIDs, etc), more states would probably have enacted more ridiculous gun laws (approaching the federal level), and they would have had more time to weaken the dollar (financially wiping out the middle class with new QE and further monetary easing). They have already done a horrendous amount of damage as it is.

    The trigger event is what may prematurely knock over the house of cards (i.e. a few more EU countries going under, or a really big economic country like Japan falling).

    A lot of the military-industrial-intelligence funded projects are set to be finished around 2016 (the really concerning ones). Things seem to be speeding up though lately. It's peoples awareness about the situation that is speeding up too.

    That's the other wild card. How many people are on to them. They can only hide the stink for so long.

    Moo-master Paul,

    Doug Hagmann and Steve Quayle's financial insider "V" came out and stated that the first domino to fall would be Japan.

    He said that Japan's economy would collapse overnight and the shockwave of this event would spread throughout Europe the next day, and then to America. He said that within days after this engineered financial crisis people in the US would not even be able to get money out of the ATMs and the NYSE would shut down.
    The following was posted a half hour ago on Zerohedge:
    Is It Beginning? Biggest JGB Price Collapse In Over 10 Years Triggers TSE Circuit Breakers

    Just over 4 hours ago we discussed the stunning collapse in 10Y Japanese bond yields. Since then - things have taken a very dramatic turn for the worse for bonds. 10Y JGB yields have exploded higher. The move from 32bps to 65bps triggered circuit breakers on the Tokyo Stock Exchange in JGB Futures trading as JGB prices plunged by their largest amount since September 2002. We can only imagine there is liquidations galore occurring given the massive outsize moves we are seeing in Japanese bonds, stocks, FX, swaps, and CDS. Did the BoJ just lose control?


    Now that is a reversal!!

    Yeah - I hear thunder too. Perhaps the promises a few days ago by Haruhiko Kuroda, the new Bank of Japan governor, of massive quantitative easing to drive Japanese inflation to 2% and weaken the Yen are having a not too surprising effect -- the sharp weakening of the Japanese bond market that I just posted above.

    Vivek dropped this link in my Visitor Messages a few days ago: Jim Willie’s “Most Important Article Ever”- USDollar: Ring-Fenced & Checkmate. If you enjoy Jim Willie's up-yours attitude, it's an excellent read. He explains how the BRICSA (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa), plus soon enough other nations including Iran, Indonesia and (even) Saudi Arabia, Germany and the UK are in various ways isolating the US and its Dollar. Increasingly oil, gold, trade, infrastructure (rail, pipeline, refinery, shipping, ...) and financial institutions are being built up by the BRICS nations and their friends, leaving out the US, except in such ways as to trade US Treasury debt back for real assets. The US is being reduced to a third world power, stripped of its monetary hegemony.

    Thanks, Vivek. I'd have missed that piece of Jim Willie, CB, had you not sent me that link.

    Comex Gold Inventories Collapse By Largest Amount Ever On Record

    [...]

    Over the last 90 days without any announcement, stocks of gold held at Comex warehouses plunged by the largest figure ever on record during a single quarter since eligible record keeping began in 2001 (roughly the beginning of the bull market).

    [...]

    Total drainage of physical inventories reached nearly 2 million oz.’s of gold, which at today’s prices represent roughly $3,000,000,000 dollars.

    According to chart sage Nick Laird, this data indicates that, “Eligible stocks which are owned in LBMA/Comex good delivery form are being drawn down—which means they are being removed from the warehouses. As to how and why they are [being] removed, that is a mystery. [Up until now], eligible stocks were on the continual increase throughout the bull market. Now that trend has changed.”

    What is most interesting in reviewing this chart data, is seeing where the largest drops have occurred. The largest inventory drainage is being reported from JP Morgan Chase & Scotia Mocatta warehouses. See charts below.



    JP Morgan Chase’s reported gold stockpile dropped by over 1.2 million oz.’s, or rather, a staggering $1.8 billion dollars worth of physical gold was removed from it’s vaults during the last 120 days.



    Scotia Mocatta’s gold stockpile removals were nominal in size when compared to JPM’s, but registered in at over 650k oz’s of gold, or over $1 billion dollars worth of physical gold was removed from its vaults over the last 90 days.
