Jester Part 2 - 7/28/13

07/28/2013   Part 2


[kazorlando] Jester Do you still feel confident in your source?

[Jester] kazorlando YES I AM... WE HAVE BEEN GETTING GOOD INFORMATION FROM THEM...

[oxglove] Jester TV WATCH: JACK LEW SUNDAY BLITZ — Treasury Secretary Jack Lew today tapes interviews for Sunday shows on ABC, CNN, FOX and NBC. M.M. keeps asking Lew to sit down for a breakfast (or lunch, or afternoon coffee) interview but so far he has declined to rise    http://www.politico.com/morningmoney/

[Jester] oxglove YES THAT IS THE REST OF THE STORY... LOL

[cowboyjoe] Jester what do u think of this Start delete actions 3 zeros from alamlha July 27, 2013 : Start delete actions 3 zeros from alamlha Baghdad, Iraq (CNN)--Iraq's parliamentary Finance Committee that the Central Bank, according to official correspondence, will start this year with three zeros deleted

[Jester] cowboyjoe I BELEIVE THAT IS THEIR WAY OF SAYING TAKE THE LARGE DENOMINATIONS OFF THE STREET...
....
[558626listner] Jester the speeches per your post were chosen based on where we are in the process so when did you become aware of where we are in the process. Did your sources not know yesterday at any time because you posted people of privilege were being processed.

[Jester] 558626listner I WAS AWARE OF IT SOMTIME LAST YEAR... THE FIRST TIME I POSTED ABOUT IT WAS ON 1/20/13 IN RECAPS... IT IS STILL PRETTY ACCURATE IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO LOOK AT IT..
http://www.dinarrecaps.com/1/post/2013/01/jester-and-i4u-members-chat-sunday-morning.html

[bandit] Jester Candy Crowley just said that there would be more from Jack Lew tonight

[wingnaprayer] Jester we all know that this is so close. Now that they are processing dignitaries, shouldn't this tell us that the system is working and on "go"? And that means that our time is very short..depending on how long it takes to process groups in front of us..also are dignitaries getting SKR's or funds

[Jester] wingnaprayer ABSOLUTELY... THEY WANT TO REWARD THE PEOPLE THAT HELPED... THE FACT IS AS YOU SAY... A GOOD THING FOR US TO BE AT THAT POINT IN THE PROCESS...

[Iank1978] Jester you had said if we saw speech B there was some kind of catastrophe, do you still feel that way?

[Jester] Iank1978 WELL I DON'T THINK IT WAS A CATASTROPHE.. PROBABLY SHOULD NOT HAVE USED THAT HARSH OF A TERM... THEY ARE JUST CONTINUING WIHT WHAT THEY WERE DOING BECAUSE THEY DID NOT GET IT DONE...

[sandytob] Jester are those dignitaries actually getting funds?

[goin4broke] sandytob the funds aren't there till post Rv.

[sandytob] goin4broke rv could have happened but not made public imo

[Jester] sandytob HAVE NOT GOT THAT INFORMATION... NOT FOR LACK OF TRYING... I WOULD GUESS... REPEAT GUESS... THAT THEY ARE GETTING GFR'S FOR FUNDS IN THEIR ACCOUNT THAT WILL GO LIVE WITH THE RV....

[cheeny] Jester You stated that China needed announcements to let this go, all that all systems are ready, so what is it that is holding up the announcements if not Iraq, banks, ust, etc? What or who is this missing peice?

[Jester] cheeny I HAVE ALREADY ANSWERED THAT TO THE BEST OF MY ABILITY... I THINK THEY ARE STILL DOING WHAT THEY WERE DOING... PROCESSING THOSE PEOPLE THAT HAVE HELPED WITH THE PROCESS...

[Austin-Powers-For-PM] Jester So, have we already heard Speech B?

[Jester] Austin-Powers-For-PM THAT WE HAVE... THE ONE WE ARE LOOKING FOR IS REPORTED TO BE ABOUT AN HOUR LONG..

[sandytob] Jester so, Meet the Press is over for this week....is Lew going to have to wait until next week to do speech A?

[Jester] sandytob NO I DO NOT BELEIVE SO... THERE IS A BACKUP PLAN FOR GETTING IT OUT IN THE SAME FORMAT... COULD BE DONE AT ANY TIME..

[goin4broke] Jester is the UN still in control or whom?

[Jester] goin4broke THE UN IS NOT IN CONTROL OF ANYTHING BUT THE PRESSURE... THEY CANNOT CONTROL THE PROCESS...

[ICU2] Jester we hear it must be done NOW or else ..... yada yada yada. Is there a deadline to get this done or not? When? Will Iraq be sanctioned if not done or what?

[Jester] ICU2 CALLING DEADLINES IS NOT DOABLE... OR ACCURATE... ALL YOU CAN DO IN THAT REGARD IS POSTULATE WHEN THINGS MUST BE DONE OR EXTENDED OR REDONE... YOU HAVE ALL WITNESSED THE PASSING OF MANY DROP DEAD DATES... THAT IS WHY YOU HAVE TO QUALIFY THE THEY CAN BE CHANGED UNDER ANY SET OF CIRCUMSTANCES...

[veggielover] Jester Hope you caught this [bandit] Jester Candy Crowley just said we would hear more from Jack Lew tonight ???????

[Jester] veggielover CANNOT CONFIRM THAT... IT IS POSSIBLE... THAT IS ALL I CAN TELL YOU... WE DO NOT KNOW THE ANSWER TO THAT YET... GUESSING IT WILL BE THAT WAY IS JUST GEUSSING...

[peachesten] Jester Your post in the forum, from last night, was a breathe of fresh air to me!! I watched JL this morning and wonder is he really one of the good guys or merely a O puppet like so many others? TY for helping us get things straight like you do so very well

[Jester] peachesten HE IS A GOOD GUY... HE IS THERE FOR A PURPOSE... AND THAT PURPOSE IS TO GET THIS DONE.. HE IS VERY WELL TRUSTED BY THE PROCESS CONTROLLERS...

[Doolittle] Jester It would seem to me if you are instructed to spell the alphabet and missed a letter such as A then you would have to repeat it right so we will start with A again. JMO A speech will be coming shortly

[Jester] Doolittle YES... AND THEY WILL DO THAT WHEN THE TIME IS RIGHT...

[paradisegirl] Jester it appears to me that Lew wants this done for other reasons than us - to make his boss look good, not for the good of society

[Jester] paradisegirl HE HAS TO WORK WITHIN THE CURRENT SYSTEM... SIMPLE AS THAT... HE CANNOT COME OUT AND CREATE A STIR JUST YET... ALL IS NOT AS IT SEEMS... REMEMBER THAT... AND REALIZE THAT IT MUST LOOK RIGHT TO THE MASSES...

[ozone2911] Jester as we have heard so many times about what is going on. it is actually unfolding right before our very eyes. this is the group process that has started , right

[Jester] ozone2911 TO A CERTAIN EXTENT YES... WE WERE AWARE EARLY LAST WEEK THAT THIS WAS GOING ON.... SOME OF YOU MAY REMEMBER I REPORTED THAT THERE WERE 27 OR SO GROUPS THAT HAD TO GO THROUGH... AND THEN IT WAS REVISED TO 70 OR SO... WE LATER FIGURES OUT IT WAS ACTUALLY 27 TO START... THEN 70 MORE ON TOP OF THAT.. AND THEN SOME MORE AFTER THAT.. WE QUIT COUNTING WHEN WE REALIZED WHAT IT WAS THEY WERE DOING... AND THAT WAS PROCESSING PEOPLE THAT HAD HELPED...

[huntress] Jester you are talking in riddles - not what it seems ?? - just talk straight and give info please. imho..

[Jester] huntress JUST BECAUSE YOU CANNOT UNDERSTAND WHAT I AM SAYING DOES NOT MEAN I AM TALKING IN RIDDLES... I AM TALKING PLAIN ENGLISH AND TELLING YOU WHAT I CAN...

[Jester] OK... NEED TO GIVE PUP TIME TO PUT ALL THIS TOGETHER FOR THOSE THAT MISSED THE START... AND THE RACE IS STARTING... LOL

[mrmoon] the vIP's are shoping now and they will open the door to the store later so we stand outside and wait

[Jester] I THINK ALL THE PERTINENT QUESTIONS HAVE BEEN ASKED AND ANSWERED... PLEASE READ THE FORUM IF YOU MISSED THE START AND I THINK YOU WILL FIND WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING FOR.... IF NOT I WILL RETURN TONIGHT AS USUSAL AND IF I GET ANY REALLY GOOD STUFF I WILL BE BACK EARLIER THAN THAT...

[johnnyjunk] . don't know whether you all have read this - but the transcript from CNN's "State of the Union" show featuring Jack Lew is pretty good - a little cryptic    http://cnnpressroom.blogs.cnn.com/2013/07/28/treasury-secretary-jack-lew-on-state-of-the-union-video-and-full-transcript/

[Jester] johnnyjunk THANKS FOR THE LINK FRIEND...

[Mitzi] Jester are you sure Jack Lew is on OUR side?

[Jester] Mitzi YES HE IS... HE HAS THE RIGHT ONE ALREADY RECORDED TOO... IT IS READY WHEN THE TIME IS RIGHT...

[Jester] THE REAL ONE IS ABOUT AN HOUR LONG... THAT IS THE ONE WE WANT... AND IT IS READY...

[Iank1978] Jester did you know before the interviews even aired??

[Jester] Iank1978 WE DID... WERE TOLD NOT TO EXPECT TOO MUCH...

[cowboyjoe] Jester has your backwall changed

[Jester] cowboyjoe YOU WERE NOT LISTENING TO WHAT I SAID AND ARE STILL TAKING IT OUT OF CONTEXT THEN...

[Jester] cowboyjoe YOU LEFT THE PART OUT THAT WAS ALSO SAID RIGHT AFTER THAT... AND THAT WAS... OTHERSWISE THEY WILL HAVE TO MAKE SOME EXTENSIONS OR REDO SOME THINGS... THAT WHAT OUT OF CONTEXT MEANSE IN ENGLISH... YOU HAVE TO PUT IT ALL TOGETHER THE WAY IT WAS SAID...

[558626listner] Jester no disrespect to you personally but your info yesterday must have come from the swiss cheese factory it was so full of wholes. would you mind filling in the holes or explaining some things in regard to the info

Jester] 558626listner YOU NEED TO ASK A DEFINITIVE QUESTION IF YOU WANT AN ANSWER...

[558626listner] Jester wanted your permission first to ask out of respect

[dessybug] Jester do we have to see the speech before rv?

 [gdsgrl21] Jester So we're on Plan B .... is it still just a few days to reach Plan A or as Zap eluded - 60 days?

[Jester]  gdsgrl21 AS SOON AS THEY GET READY IT WILL COME OUT... I KNOW THEY ARE WORKING ON THINGS... I REPORTED LAST NIGHT WHAT THEY WERE...

[xyz] Jester so was this morning shows plan b?

[Jester] xyz IT WAS...

sandytob] Jester Since we got the B speech, I am assuming that something they THOUGHT was done....is not actually done, or that there was some disagreement between parties. Can you elaborate?

[Jester] sandytob I CAN TELL YOU WHAT I THINK... BASED ON WHAT WAS GOING ON... AS REPORTED LAST NIGHT MANY DIGNITARIES WERE BEING PROCESSED IN RETURN FOR THEIR HELP IN THE PROCESS... I FEEL THEY ARE PROBABLY STILL WORKING ON THAT...

[ChildOfGod] Jester So a few more days, then Speech A?

[558626listner] Jester how could your sources know there were two speeches prerecorded saturday early based on the place we are in the process and not know at 11pm when you posted which one it was that would be aired Tv stations are not the most secure on info of prerecorded content

[johnnyjunk] 558626listner in other circumstances I have actually SEEN alternative portions aired - knowing other things were recorded ... FIRST HAND - it happens ... all the time ...

[johnnyjunk] 558626listner and people at the station are UNDER NON-DISCLOSURE when necessary

[Jester] 558626listner THEY WORK LATE THERE... HARD TO DETERMINE WHAT IS GOING ON IN REAL TIME... IT TAKES SOME TIME TO FIGURE OUT WHAT IS HAPPENING...

[wingnaprayer] 558626listner My daughter was a producer for fox news. They can make changes up to five minutes before air time. Anything is possible.

[Pink Diamonds] Jester can speech A come out today as breaking news?

[firefixer] Anythings possible

[Doolittle] Jester JL said that O was determine to have a new debt ceiling. He must have some means to have money to pay our debts without printing anymore money. Maybe a global Reset?

[Jester] Doolittle VERY GOOD THINKING... I DO BELIEVE THAT IS THE CASE AND WHY IT IS DRAGGING OUT THE WAY IT IS...

[burk50] Jester sooo will the A speech come out before Iraq's QI cards go International July31st thx

[wingnaprayer] Jester We know that you cannot predict exact timing and that they are working diligently to get this done. Based on the fact that they are processing dignitaries tells us that this should be very soon. Will the required extensions have an effect on adding further timing to this process?

[Jester] wingnaprayer NO FEEDBACK ON EXTENSIONS YET... WE ARE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM... BUT HAVE NOT GOT THE DETAILS ON THAT YET...

[SCgunner] Jester speaking of NDAs, do you know if your "sources" have not been required to sign one, although they have such great information, or someone or many, a source, is simply breaking the NDA. Do you suppose someone in a position to know such would not be required to sign the NDA?

[Jester] SCgunner THE PEOPLE WE TALK TO ARE NOT NORMALLY UNDER SUCH NDA... WE DO HAVE TIMES THAT WE SUFFER THROUGH BLACKOUTS FROM SOME DEPEPNDING WHAT SOURCE THEY ARE... AND THEY COME BACK WHEN THEY CAN... KEEP IN MIND THAT MOST SOURCES ARE ONE DIMENSIONAL.. MEANING THEY HAVE ONE ONE FORM OF INFORMATION... THEY TALK TO US FROM THEIR PERSPECTIVE SO THAT THAY CAN KNOW WHAT WE KNOW AND GET THE WHOLE PICTURE TOO... IT IS AND INFORMATION BROKERING ARRANGEMENT FOR LACK OF A BETTER DESCRIPTION..

[SCgunner] Jester compartmentilized (SIC) huh, thanks....

Jester] SCgunner THAT IS THE CASE EXACTLY... AND THE NETWORK OUTSIDE THAT IS A FEW THAT DO WHAT I AM DOING AND TIE IT ALL TOGETHER...

[Leads1] 558626listner Who said a one of the networks recorded it? Could have been done behind closed doors in a secure location.

[Jester] Leads1 FROM YESTERDAYS http://www.politico.com/   WHICH HAS CHANGED NOW.... BUT YESTERDAY IT SAID... SUNDAY BLITZ — Treasury Secretary Jack Lew today tapes interviews for Sunday shows on ABC, CNN, FOX and NBC.. NOTICE THE FACT THAT IT WAS PRE-RECOREDED

[cigarhero] I personally believe loechen is privy to alot of intricate details about what is going on at each stage of the process. I am a little envious... I would love to be "In The Know". I also see it as a bit of a burden for him........ To know so much and have to be careful not to get pinched for saying to much (especially when we all beg for the info.)

**********

[wango1]  there is a lot in the background that can't be posted and besides it is hard to give real intel without harassment. Just keep the faith it is sitting right there waiting for us

[wango1] Tradewind It's here, there are alot of things happening and the truth is the extention expires tomorrow a.m. So until than just keep the faith and smile

[redhawaii] news out right now is very confusing...hoping MountainGoat's post is NOT true. Would love to hear from Tony

[wango1] redhawaii her opinion based solely on one small peice of the puzzle

[CajunBelle] wango1 ~ What is your take on Mtn Goat's post?

[wango1] beudful1 Moneymagnet Not long the cards are to be funded, active and international by July 31

[georgiapeach] wango1 will there be a hold after they receive there funds before it goes international say 24-48 or should it be instant... I meant before we see it

 [Iank1978] Wango1 fair enough thx

****************************

I4U:

[happydave1] i personaly think that this has everybody stumped as to why it hasnt happened yet,,,, so 1, i wonder if they are still trying to hold onto the current system seeing if they can fix it and then bussines as usuall,, 2,or they are trying to figure out how they can exploit the new system to gain the upper hand on it….. logic says that it should have been done but logic doesnt apply here

[happydave1] Gold going to $7,000 in currency reset says author Jim Rickards http://www.arabianmoney.net/gold-silver/2013/07/25/gold-going-to-7000-in-currency-reset-says-author-jim-rickards/

Vote4RV] So I have a question. If we have a private deal that has been prenegotiated, why not have us get skr's? I would sign an NDA just to stop buying more reserves every time I get excited. lol.

[mystery] Vote4RV me too !!!!

elcamono wrote on July 28th, 2013, .Our Value

A well known speaker started off his seminar by holding up a $20 bill. In the room of 200, he asked, "Who would like this $20 bill?"

Hands started going up.

He said, "I am going to give this $20 to one of you but first, let me do this."
He proceeded to crumple the $20 dollar bill up.

He then asked, "Who still wants it?"

Still the hands were up in the air.

"Well," he replied, "What if I do this?" And he dropped it on the ground and started to grind it into the floor with his shoe.

He picked it up, now all crumpled and dirty. "Now who still wants it?"
Still the hands went up into the air.

"My friends, You have all learned a very valuable lesson. No matter what I did to the money, you still wanted it because it did not decrease in value.
It was still worth $20.

Many times in our lives, we are dropped, crumpled, and ground into the dirt by the decisions we make and the circumstances that come our way.

We feel as though we are worthless. But no matter what has happened or what will happen, you will never lose your value. You are special...
Don't Ever Forget It!

Have A Great Day,
God Bless


Treasury Secretary Jack Lew on State of the Union – Video and Full Transcript

Treasury Secretary Jack Lew on State of the Union – Video and Full Transcript

In an interview airing Sunday on CNN's State of the Union with Candy Crowley,Treasury Secretary Jack Lew spoke about Detroit, the economy, and whether the Obama administration wants more tax hikes. Lew also weighed in on Eliot Spitzer’s candidacy for New York City comptroller and the future leadership of the Federal Reserve. Video links are below, and a full transcript is after the jump.
EMBEDDABLE VIDEO
Full Transcript
THIS IS A RUSH FDCH TRANSCRIPT. THIS COPY MAY NOT BE IN ITS FINAL FORM AND MAY BE UPDATED.
CANDY CROWLEY, CNN HOST:  Treasury Secretary Jack Lew is here.  Thanks for coming by.
JACK LEW, TREASURY SECRETARY:  Good to be with you, Candy.
CROWLEY:  I want to have a general question about the economy and play for you something the Speaker of the House said this week.
(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)
JOHN BOEHNER, SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE:  The president pivoted this week to jobs as he has been known to do on occasion.  And under the president's leadership, our country has fallen into the new normal of slow growth, high unemployment and stagnant wages.
And I think it's unacceptable.
(END VIDEO CLIP)
CROWLEY:  Take his characterization of the economy.
Is there anything in there, slow growth - would you agree with that?
LEW:  You know, Candy, I think the characterization does not reflect where the economy is or where it's come from.  I think if you look at where this economy was four years ago, it was in free fall.  We had to come out of the deepest recession since the–
CROWLEY: But I don't think he, he was not suggesting–
LEW:  - Great Depression.
CROWLEY:  Right.  He's not suggesting that this is better than it was in that first year but where is it now? Right now?
LEW:  I think if you look at where it's come, we've had 40 months of job growth, four years of economic growth and the president's the first to say that we would like to grow faster and we'd like to be creating more jobs and we need policies to do that.
That's what he did this week.  He gave a speech about what it takes to build a stronger, more vibrant middle class.
CROWLEY:  Would you agree that it's slow growth?
LEW:  The economy, the core of the economy is showing signs of health and the resilience of the American economy and of the American people is showing through.
I think that what the American people need is for Washington to do its work, for Washington to stop creating crises and for Washington to concentrate on the things that the president spoke to in his speech, making sure that the American family can have jobs, security in their home and in their health care, education for their children and a secure retirement.
And the sooner we get on with that debate, the better.
CROWLEY:  And so just to get your description of the economy right now, do you disagree that it's slow growth, too slow?  It's growth.  We - I think everybody –
LEW:  Candy, I just came back from a meeting of the finance ministers of the 20 largest countries in the world.  And I have to tell you that we're doing better than most other countries in terms of recovery from this recession.  They look at us and they say that we did something right.  We took decisive action in 2008, 2009, 2010.
We got our economy growing.  We've fixed our financial system.  We have some challenges here.  The president spoke to that.  We have disparities in distribution of opportunity and wealth.  We have the need to make that American who wants to work full-time can have a middle class life.
CROWLEY:  Let me talk to you about the disparities.  One of the things we have seen is that median family income has fallen over the past decade.  The - according to the Census Bureau, about a quarter - 25 percent of American households have an income of $25,000 orless.  The economy, while improving, unemployment, while coming down, does not seem to be creating good jobs.
Why is that?
LEW:  You know, Candy, this is a problem that's been decades in the making.  And it's something that we need to attend to and the president actually spoke to that in his speech in the middle of the week.
I think that if you look at the beginning of this year, we made an important step in terms of reducing some of the inequality by having tax rates for the most wealthy return to where they were before the tax cuts in the early 2000s.  We made the first clear step to addressing some of the inequity in a very long time.
There's no substitute to growing the economy and growing jobs and creating middle class jobs for people to - who have the skills and the desire to work.  Our job in the government is that the conditions so that that can happen.
And we know what we need to do.  And we know that if we were to focus on things like infrastructure and education and training and building manufacturing hubs, we make progress.
Washington has been distracted for too long with the hyperpartisanship.  And we need to focus on what it's all about and what we're trying to accomplish.  And we need to do that for the American people.
CROWLEY:  Again, just sort of addressing the jobs that are coming back, what happened to the good paying jobs?
Where are they?
LEW:  Well, look, there are still a lot of good paying jobs in America.  And I think that, you know, you look at the –
CROWLEY:  There are fewer, though; you would agree with that?
LEW:  I think the challenge of creating more opportunities for people who want to work full-time, to have middle class lives, is at the heart of what the president was talking about this week.  I think we know that we're not going to have the economy of the 1900s.  We're going to have the economy of the 21st century.  We know that that requires skills training.  We know that that requires know that that requires that kids get early–
CROWLEY:  So we're moving away from the industrial jobs that created the middle class.
LEW:  You know, I visit factories when I go around the country because I think one of my jobs as Treasury Secretary is to make sure I'm connected to what they call the real economy, where people are producing things.
And it's really quite striking when you go into a factory and you see that the people who are making things are working with technology and computers.  And you need to get a good education.  So when we talk about early childhood education, when we talk about science and math education, that's part of what it takes to make sure that we have a strong middle class.
CANDY: Sure, but that's a long way from here though is-
LEW:  If all we talk about is cutting and we don't talk about investing, we can't build our way to a better future.
CROWLEY:  Understood.  But a lot of these things - infrastructure projects and some of those - can start up within a reasonable amount of time.  But educating a populace, that takes a long time to educate a kid.
In the near term, right now, we have a lot of part-time sort of lower paying jobs.
Is there any kind of fix for that?
LEW:  Candy, there's no doubt that early childhood education is a long way from a full-time job.  But I think if you look at our economy today, we have roughly 3 million jobs that are open and people may not have the skills for them.  We have high schools and community colleges that can train people for those jobs if we can make those connections and make sure the resources are used well.
I think that we're - we have things we can do in the short term and that's the kind of thing we ought to be talking about.
CROWLEY:  I want to point out a particular segment of the workforce for you, and that is African-American unemployment now stands at 13.7, roughly where it was in early 2009.
Nonetheless, this is the very group that the president talked about, at least partially, that, you know, he's talking about younger African-Americans, but African-Americans as a whole who have not always felt a part of this society.
Don't these numbers, where African-American unemployment is the highest of all the sort of subgroups, cry out for a specific solution aimedparticularly at that community?
LEW:  Candy, I think if you look a little bit more broadly at the unemployment trends, we're seeing theoverall unemployment rate come down.  It's still too high but as we continue to grow, you can see how it'sgoing to start coming back to more normal levels.
There is a stubborn high unemployment rate for people who've been unemployed for a long time.  And there are pockets of the population that we do have to worry about reaching and not leaving them behind.
I think we have to worry about the young people who graduated from school during the depths of the recession who have a gap in their résumés.
CROWLEY:  Sure.  But 50.7 is pretty high for the African-American population - it's twice as high as the general number.  But the president's kind of always resisted sort of specific programs, saying you know, the rising tide lifts all boats.
Do you think this requires specific action?
LEW:  Well, I think when you look at - when we talk about skills training, when we talk about education, it's very much aimed at making sure that all of our young people get the skills they need to compete in the 21st century.  We mean that regardless of race and regardless of where you live.  And we're not going to rest until we've made progress reaching the hard-to-reach population.
CROWLEY:  As you know, one of America's former great cities, Detroit, has - is trying to file for bankruptcy, at any rate.
Is there a federal bailout for Detroit?
LEW:  Candy, Detroit's got serious financial problems.  They've been a long time in the making.  We stand with Detroit and have been working with them, the technical advice, working with the kinds of normal programs the federal government has to see if there's anything we can do to help in the Treasury Department.
I've made resources available for helping to take down blighted properties, to help communities come back from the recession.  I think the issues that Detroit has in terms of problems with its creditors it's going to have to work out with its creditors.
CROWLEY:  You know, we bailed out big banks.  We bailed out the auto industry.  We bailed out speculative homebuilders.  And here is a major American city where, by the way, the minority population is the overwhelming is the majority population.  And there's no help from the federal government.
It seems - I think people would look at that.  I would look at that and say, well, why would you bailout the auto industry but not an entire American city that's gone bankrupt?
LEW:  Let's be clear, Candy, in the middle of the economic crisis, we were saving the American economy.  We were in freefall.  If we hadn't taken decisive action, we would have had a massively worse problem than what we even had.
So I think the situation in 2009-2010 was unique.  And it's something that hopefully we never see again.
CROWLEY:  But no major federal help that you can see for Detroit?  That's all?
LEW:  Well, we stand with Detroit and we, through the normal federal programs, will continue to work with them.
CROWLEY:  But you don't see a special - what I'm - what I'm getting at it's kind of horrifying to look - and, by the way, there are a number of cities that seem to be in the same kind of - headed down that same financial road with huge pension and health care obligations that they're unable to meet.  And Detroit has just sort of shrunk before our very eyes.  This is something that Detroit has to workout?
LEW:  Detroit has serious challenges.  We support Detroit in its efforts.  But Detroit's going to have to work –
CROWLEY:  Kind of moral support?
LEW:  - with its creditors.
CROWLEY:  OK.
When looking ahead for the next three years of the Obama administration, do you see new - more new taxes coming down the pike in any of those three years?
LEW:  You know, Candy, we've had debates about taxes for a long time in this country, in Washington.  We made some progress at the beginning of this year, really responding to your earlier concern about the distribution of equity and opportunity.  We've closened (ph) the gap by raising tax rates on the very high end.
We still have a gap in terms of the amount of revenue we need to make sure we can support all of the things that we do in this country.
It's not as big as it was because we've moved partway there.  The challenge is how do we get away from the kind of day-to-day, who's up, who's down, what's the score in the Washington debate and how we focus on what we need to do to build the economy for the American people going forward.
And if we couldn't come together and agree on how to make those investments that we're talking about, to make sure that there are good middle class jobs and as part of that we could resolve some of the middle and long-term questions about tax reform and entitlement reform, that would be a good thing for the American people.
CROWLEY:  Yes, but when you're talking infrastructure and investments and in education, raising theminimum wage, certainly the first two are spending.  They're investments.  But you call them - the Republicans, of course, say this is spending.  So you want to do additional spending to create jobs and particularly in infrastructure, because that also helps businesses, et cetera.
But the question is do you foresee that new taxes - talking about a revenue shortage, and if you've got a slow economy, there's only a couple of ways to – you know–
LEW:  Just to like be clear on taxes, yes, I think we have some areas of emerging - not consensus, convergence of views.  I think that there's a broad sense that the tax code is too complex, that it should be simplified.
There's a broad sense that there are loopholes and credits that make the system unfair and distort the economy.
I think there is a bit of a gap between Democrats and Republicans where Democrats want to take the process of tax reform and use some of the benefits to both lower rates and to reduce the deficit so that the pressuredoesn't come on all these other things that are really important for our future.  Republicans would like to use all of the proceeds to reduce tax rates.
I think that we have a growth agenda.  We have a plan and ideas that what it takes to have a strong economy in the future.  And I hope if we can have that debate, we can maybe bridge this gap.
CROWLEY:  Talk to me about Janet Yellen.  Do you think she would make a good Fed chair?
LEW:  You know, Candy, I'm not going to comment on discussions that - regarding the leadership of theFed.  I think that I've got to start by saying, you know, Chairman Bernanke has been an extraordinary Fed chairman.  He will be remembered when he's done - and he's not done; he is the Fed chair today - as somebody who did a great deal to save the U.S. and the world economy.
There will be the right time for discussions about a successor.  And frankly–
CROWLEY: Well, still–
LEW: - and we will keep those discussions to the privacy of the oval office.
CROWLEY:  We're told there's quite a back-and-forth and some political push-and-pull between those - and we know you've gotten - the president has gotten letters saying, hey, appoint Janet Yellen and Larry Summers is the other person involved in this, and there's quite a lot of push-and-pull behind the scenes.
Is that true or not true?
LEW:  I know the two people you've asked about very well.  They're both friends and I have great admiration for both of them.  I'm going to keep the conversation about any future decisions here where it belongs.
CROWLEY:  Would they both make good Fed chairs?
LEW:  I think they're both extraordinarily talented people.
CROWLEY:  That's not exactly that they would both make good Fed chairs.
LEW:  I'm not going to comment on the Fed.
(LAUGHTER)
CROWLEY:  Let me ask you about the debt ceiling.  When will we hit it?
LEW:  You know, I think Washington pays entirely too much attention to trying to figure out the day we run out –
CROWLEY:  I don't need to know the day, just circa, when do you think that is going to be near that?
LEW:  I've said publicly that we can get through Labor Day.  Obviously, as we get closer, we'll have a better sense.  There's a great deal of danger of trying to pinpoint - Congress should act immediately.  Let's remember, we hit the debt ceiling in May.  We've been using extraordinary measures since May to pay our bills.
We'll do that for as long as we can.  There's the risk of trying to focus on the day that you might get it wrong.  And Congress shouldn't wait till the last minute.  They should just raise the debt limit and take away any cloud of uncertainty about the ability of the United States to pay its bills.
CROWLEY:  You know Eliot Spitzer, I'm assuming.  You know a lot of the same people, I'm assuming.  He knows a lot about Wall Street.  He's running for city comptroller in New York.  What do you think?
LEW:  I actually don't know Eliot Spitzer very well.
CROWLEY:  You think from his qualifications he seems like a guy that ought to be able to handle New YorkCity and Wall Street?
LEW:  I'm going to concentrate on national policy, not New York politics.
CROWLEY:  (laughter) you won't even do national politics.
OK, finally, Bank of England has decided to put Jane Austen on the 10-pound note.  In the U.S., we've never had a woman; we've never had an African-American on any of our money, and this is now because England has now done this.
Do you think it's time we considered maybe putting a woman or an African-American on paper money in the U.S.?
LEW:  Well, obviously we have had a woman on currency –
CROWLEY:  Coins.
LEW:  - on the coins, Sacajawea was on the dollar coin.  You know, the question of changing currency is something that I actually have not had a huge amount of time to deal with, given the many things that I've been dealing with as Treasury Secretary.  I look forward, as I have a chance to think it through, what the future of currency should be in many ways.
CROWLEY:  Well, now that you've got your signature figured out, you know, next year it'll look at shrinking the money and that kind of thing.  But –
LEW:  I've been working on my signature for a lot longer.
(LAUGHTER)
CROWLEY:  Thank you so much for stopping by.
LEW:  Great to be here with you, Candy.
CROWLEY:  Treasury Secretary Jack Lew.
LEW:  Thanks.

[Jester] cowboyjoe YOU WERE NOT LISTENING TO WHAT I SAID AND ARE STILL TAKING IT OUT OF CONTEXT THEN...

[Jester] cowboyjoe YOU LEFT THE PART OUT THAT WAS ALSO SAID RIGHT AFTER THAT... AND THAT WAS... OTHERSWISE THEY WILL HAVE TO MAKE SOME EXTENSIONS OR REDO SOME THINGS... THAT WHAT OUT OF CONTEXT MEANSE IN ENGLISH... YOU HAVE TO PUT IT ALL TOGETHER THE WAY IT WAS SAID...

[558626listner] Jester no disrespect to you personally but your info yesterday must have come from the swiss cheese factory it was so full of wholes. would you mind filling in the holes or explaining some things in regard to the info

Jester] 558626listner YOU NEED TO ASK A DEFINITIVE QUESTION IF YOU WANT AN ANSWER...

[558626listner] Jester wanted your permission first to ask out of respect

[dessybug] Jester do we have to see the speech before rv?

 [gdsgrl21] Jester So we're on Plan B .... is it still just a few days to reach Plan A or as Zap eluded - 60 days?

[Jester]  gdsgrl21 AS SOON AS THEY GET READY IT WILL COME OUT... I KNOW THEY ARE WORKING ON THINGS... I REPORTED LAST NIGHT WHAT THEY WERE...

[xyz] Jester so was this morning shows plan b?

[Jester] xyz IT WAS...

sandytob] Jester Since we got the B speech, I am assuming that something they THOUGHT was done....is not actually done, or that there was some disagreement between parties. Can you elaborate?

[Jester] sandytob I CAN TELL YOU WHAT I THINK... BASED ON WHAT WAS GOING ON... AS REPORTED LAST NIGHT MANY DIGNITARIES WERE BEING PROCESSED IN RETURN FOR THEIR HELP IN THE PROCESS... I FEEL THEY ARE PROBABLY STILL WORKING ON THAT...

[ChildOfGod] Jester So a few more days, then Speech A?

[558626listner] Jester how could your sources know there were two speeches prerecorded saturday early based on the place we are in the process and not know at 11pm when you posted which one it was that would be aired Tv stations are not the most secure on info of prerecorded content

[johnnyjunk] 558626listner in other circumstances I have actually SEEN alternative portions aired - knowing other things were recorded ... FIRST HAND - it happens ... all the time ...

[johnnyjunk] 558626listner and people at the station are UNDER NON-DISCLOSURE when necessary

[Jester] 558626listner THEY WORK LATE THERE... HARD TO DETERMINE WHAT IS GOING ON IN REAL TIME... IT TAKES SOME TIME TO FIGURE OUT WHAT IS HAPPENING...

[wingnaprayer] 558626listner My daughter was a producer for fox news. They can make changes up to five minutes before air time. Anything is possible.

[Pink Diamonds] Jester can speech A come out today as breaking news?

[firefixer] Anythings possible

[Doolittle] Jester JL said that O was determine to have a new debt ceiling. He must have some means to have money to pay our debts without printing anymore money. Maybe a global Reset?

[Jester] Doolittle VERY GOOD THINKING... I DO BELIEVE THAT IS THE CASE AND WHY IT IS DRAGGING OUT THE WAY IT IS...

[burk50] Jester sooo will the A speech come out before Iraq's QI cards go International July31st thx

[wingnaprayer] Jester We know that you cannot predict exact timing and that they are working diligently to get this done. Based on the fact that they are processing dignitaries tells us that this should be very soon. Will the required extensions have an effect on adding further timing to this process?

[Jester] wingnaprayer NO FEEDBACK ON EXTENSIONS YET... WE ARE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM... BUT HAVE NOT GOT THE DETAILS ON THAT YET...

[SCgunner] Jester speaking of NDAs, do you know if your "sources" have not been required to sign one, although they have such great information, or someone or many, a source, is simply breaking the NDA. Do you suppose someone in a position to know such would not be required to sign the NDA?

[Jester] SCgunner THE PEOPLE WE TALK TO ARE NOT NORMALLY UNDER SUCH NDA... WE DO HAVE TIMES THAT WE SUFFER THROUGH BLACKOUTS FROM SOME DEPEPNDING WHAT SOURCE THEY ARE... AND THEY COME BACK WHEN THEY CAN... KEEP IN MIND THAT MOST SOURCES ARE ONE DIMENSIONAL.. MEANING THEY HAVE ONE ONE FORM OF INFORMATION... THEY TALK TO US FROM THEIR PERSPECTIVE SO THAT THAY CAN KNOW WHAT WE KNOW AND GET THE WHOLE PICTURE TOO... IT IS AND INFORMATION BROKERING ARRANGEMENT FOR LACK OF A BETTER DESCRIPTION..

[SCgunner] Jester compartmentilized (SIC) huh, thanks....

[558626listner] Jester the speeches per your post were chosen based on where we are in the process so when did you become aware of where we are in the process. Did your sources not know yesterday at any time because you posted people of privilege were being processed.

http://www.dinarrecaps.com/1/post/2013/01/jester-and-i4u-members-chat-sunday-morning.html

[bandit] Jester Candy Crowley just said that there would be more from Jack Lew tonight

[wingnaprayer] Jester we all know that this is so close. Now that they are processing dignitaries, shouldn't this tell us that the system is working and on "go"? And that means that our time is very short..depending on how long it takes to process groups in front of us..also are dignitaries getting SKR's or funds

[Jester] wingnaprayer ABSOLUTELY... THEY WANT TO REWARD THE PEOPLE THAT HELPED... THE FACT IS AS YOU SAY... A GOOD THING FOR US TO BE AT THAT POINT IN THE PROCESS...

[Iank1978] Jester you had said if we saw speech B there was some kind of catastrophe, do you still feel that way?

[Jester] Iank1978 WELL I DON'T THINK IT WAS A CATASTROPHE.. PROBABLY SHOULD NOT HAVE USED THAT HARSH OF A TERM... THEY ARE JUST CONTINUING WIHT WHAT THEY WERE DOING BECAUSE THEY DID NOT GET IT DONE...

[sandytob] Jester are those dignitaries actually getting funds?

[goin4broke] sandytob the funds aren't there till post Rv.

[sandytob] goin4broke rv could have happened but not made public imo

[Jester] sandytob HAVE NOT GOT THAT INFORMATION... NOT FOR LACK OF TRYING... I WOULD GUESS... REPEAT GUESS... THAT THEY ARE GETTING GFR'S FOR FUNDS IN THEIR ACCOUNT THAT WILL GO LIVE WITH THE RV....

[cheeny] Jester You stated that China needed announcements to let this go, all that all systems are ready, so what is it that is holding up the announcements if not Iraq, banks, ust, etc? What or who is this missing peice?

[Jester] cheeny I HAVE ALREADY ANSWERED THAT TO THE BEST OF MY ABILITY... I THINK THEY ARE STILL DOING WHAT THEY WERE DOING... PROCESSING THOSE PEOPLE THAT HAVE HELPED WITH THE PROCESS...

[Austin-Powers-For-PM] Jester So, have we already heard Speech B?

[Jester] Austin-Powers-For-PM THAT WE HAVE... THE ONE WE ARE LOOKING FOR IS REPORTED TO BE ABOUT AN HOUR LONG..

[sandytob] Jester so, Meet the Press is over for this week....is Lew going to have to wait until next week to do speech A?

[Jester] sandytob NO I DO NOT BELEIVE SO... THERE IS A BACKUP PLAN FOR GETTING IT OUT IN THE SAME FORMAT... COULD BE DONE AT ANY TIME..

[goin4broke] Jester is the UN still in control or whom?

[Jester] goin4broke THE UN IS NOT IN CONTROL OF ANYTHING BUT THE PRESSURE... THEY CANNOT CONTROL THE PROCESS...

[ICU2] Jester we hear it must be done NOW or else ..... yada yada yada. Is there a deadline to get this done or not? When? Will Iraq be sanctioned if not done or what?

[Jester] ICU2 CALLING DEADLINES IS NOT DOABLE... OR ACCURATE... ALL YOU CAN DO IN THAT REGARD IS POSTULATE WHEN THINGS MUST BE DONE OR EXTENDED OR REDONE... YOU HAVE ALL WITNESSED THE PASSING OF MANY DROP DEAD DATES... THAT IS WHY YOU HAVE TO QUALIFY THE THEY CAN BE CHANGED UNDER ANY SET OF CIRCUMSTANCES...

[veggielover] Jester Hope you caught this [bandit] Jester Candy Crowley just said we would hear more from Jack Lew tonight ???????

[Jester] veggielover CANNOT CONFIRM THAT... IT IS POSSIBLE... THAT IS ALL I CAN TELL YOU... WE DO NOT KNOW THE ANSWER TO THAT YET... GUESSING IT WILL BE THAT WAY IS JUST GEUSSING...

[peachesten] Jester Your post in the forum, from last night, was a breathe of fresh air to me!! I watched JL this morning and wonder is he really one of the good guys or merely a O puppet like so many others? TY for helping us get things straight like you do so very well

[Jester] peachesten HE IS A GOOD GUY... HE IS THERE FOR A PURPOSE... AND THAT PURPOSE IS TO GET THIS DONE.. HE IS VERY WELL TRUSTED BY THE PROCESS CONTROLLERS...

[Doolittle] Jester It would seem to me if you are instructed to spell the alphabet and missed a letter such as A then you would have to repeat it right so we will start with A again. JMO A speech will be coming shortly

[Jester] Doolittle YES... AND THEY WILL DO THAT WHEN THE TIME IS RIGHT...

[paradisegirl] Jester it appears to me that Lew wants this done for other reasons than us - to make his boss look good, not for the good of society

[Jester] paradisegirl HE HAS TO WORK WITHIN THE CURRENT SYSTEM... SIMPLE AS THAT... HE CANNOT COME OUT AND CREATE A STIR JUST YET... ALL IS NOT AS IT SEEMS... REMEMBER THAT... AND REALIZE THAT IT MUST LOOK RIGHT TO THE MASSES...

[ozone2911] Jester as we have heard so many times about what is going on. it is actually unfolding right before our very eyes. this is the group process that has started , right

[Jester] ozone2911 TO A CERTAIN EXTENT YES... WE WERE AWARE EARLY LAST WEEK THAT THIS WAS GOING ON.... SOME OF YOU MAY REMEMBER I REPORTED THAT THERE WERE 27 OR SO GROUPS THAT HAD TO GO THROUGH... AND THEN IT WAS REVISED TO 70 OR SO... WE LATER FIGURES OUT IT WAS ACTUALLY 27 TO START... THEN 70 MORE ON TOP OF THAT.. AND THEN SOME MORE AFTER THAT.. WE QUIT COUNTING WHEN WE REALIZED WHAT IT WAS THEY WERE DOING... AND THAT WAS PROCESSING PEOPLE THAT HAD HELPED...

[huntress] Jester you are talking in riddles - not what it seems ?? - just talk straight and give info please. imho..

[Jester] huntress JUST BECAUSE YOU CANNOT UNDERSTAND WHAT I AM SAYING DOES NOT MEAN I AM TALKING IN RIDDLES... I AM TALKING PLAIN ENGLISH AND TELLING YOU WHAT I CAN...

[Jester] OK... NEED TO GIVE PUP TIME TO PUT ALL THIS TOGETHER FOR THOSE THAT MISSED THE START... AND THE RACE IS STARTING... LOL

[mrmoon] the vIP's are shoping now and they will open the door to the store later so we stand outside and wait

[Jester] I THINK ALL THE PERTINENT QUESTIONS HAVE BEEN ASKED AND ANSWERED... PLEASE READ THE FORUM IF YOU MISSED THE START AND I THINK YOU WILL FIND WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING FOR.... IF NOT I WILL RETURN TONIGHT AS USUSAL AND IF I GET ANY REALLY GOOD STUFF I WILL BE BACK EARLIER THAN THAT...

Mitzi] Jester ty

UU0956 - Update. this is what I have been told - mnt goat

UU0956 - Update. this is what I have been told - mnt goat

Hi Everyone,

Yes- the goat is back! What a nice day in Bavaria today. Crystal clear blue sky and a nice mountain breeze from heaven!

Are we all anticipating this RV any moment now?
Who could have ever imagined I would be writing this post July 28, 2013. Amazing...

I was finally able to return calls back to Iraq and IMF. This is what I have been told.

First they said to ignore any further news about the activation of the SMART cards as the hold up to the RV. The cards are all loaded and tests are now all complete.

Also the Iraq banks have the new lower denoms and the replacement notes for the torn existing bills 50, 250, and 500. There is also a set of new coins waiting to be dispersed as businesses and individuals will need these for convienence. 

There are no political obstacles in Iraq that would hold up the RV. All necessay politicians and CBI agree to the implementation to go international. The hold up is now thrown back to the IMF court for activation. Kind of like a basketball game...lol...In fact the Iraq economic committee and finance ministry are very upset that they have had such past pressure from the IMF to get their house in order. Also for their requested delays since April and yet now where is it when all is resolved? 

So I asked if this is all true, then what is holding this up?

The answer was that it was not Iraq. It has been ready to go since last Friday. Last Monday they ran the algorithm for the second time for all the 198 currencies. If you can remember in the past there was only about 50+ currencies in basket one. Now most of the currencies are all in the same basket, basket one. Since this was such a big undertaking there were some technical issues once again. These issues caused them to miss the window of opportunity to complete the push to FOREX and to the international banks. They must now wait again.

I asked- so what is the window criteria? I was flat out told that this is classified information and is part of the algorithm that is very sensative and can not be reveiled to us. It is kind of like the underwriting rules used to rate an insurance policy. It is the bread and butter of this effort. Needless to say we did miss the opportunity this past week and must now wait once again. It is not a day by day watch as some think. It is timely event. Our next opportunity will not come again till after Aug 1stThursday which begins the next cycle. So we wait. There is also some banking legistation coming into activation on Aug 1st needed for the control of the money. It could have gone without these laws but since they missed the last window they will wait to a minimum until after Aug 1st.

I wish I had some better news but the IMF contact was not optimistic in us seeing this prior to maybe next Thursday Aug 1st. He also said its not like there is even a track anymore to follow so I can't say "its right on track" anymore. There is nothing else to do but wait for the timing unless other issues crop up.

Cheer up there is some good news
The good news is that the rates that are being pushed down to the banks are very high and it almost knocked me over when I was told. If they were successful in this last attempt I think we would have all have been very, very happy the rates were so good. I am also told that unless the VND comes out initially over $1 + do not exchange it since it is expected to very quickly increase post RV. I was told there are also a couple other "sleeper" currencies that also will shock you at their initial rates.


Peace and Luv to ya all,
Mnt Goat
