(CNSNews.com) - Democratic Senators Ed Markey (D-Mass.) and Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) have put forth a bill that could drastically impact gun sales in America.
It would mandate that in 10 years “anyone selling a handgun must retrofit it with personalization technology before that sale can be completed.”
It would also ban the “manufacture in the United States a handgun that is not a personalized handgun” within 5 years of the measure being enacted.
Smart gun technology allows a handgun to only be operated by an authorized user. It generally works through finger or palm print recognition, electronic password or coded lock, or a gun that needs to be in proximity to a specific watch or bracelet in order to operate.
Currently smart gun technology is pricey. The Armatix iP1 is the first smart handgun to be sold in the U.S.with a reported price of $1,800.
In a press release Markey says, the measure would also “authorize grants to develop and improve ‘personalized’ handgun technology to increase efficacy and decrease costs.”
It would also “provide reimbursement to manufacturers for the costs of retrofitting handguns through the Department of Justice Assets Forfeiture Fund.”
According to some, a very quiet stealth war on cash has begun. May your bank account, debit card and gold reserves be on guard… The world’s elite are meeting in secret this week at the Bilderberg meeting, set at a luxury resort in Telfs-Buchen, Austria. Investigative journalists have confirmed that the private discussions among top power brokers across the globe include arrangements to restrict currency and penalize – or ultimately even ban – cash.
Read the attendees list… real power and wealth are running with the movers and shakers. With bankers, equity giants and financiers all present, the agenda is quite in line with recent reports, as SHTF has long reported.
The powerful Bilderberg Group will discuss imposing more capital controls on average citizens while HSBC, whose Group Chairman will attend the conference, is set to pay more than $40 million dollars for illegal money laundering involving arms dealers and helping the wealthy avoid taxes. It’s very much a case of do as we say, not as we do. […] Ironic, therefore, it is that HSBC representatives will be party to discussions at Bilderberg centered around moving towards the abolition of cash and the imposition of capital controls on ordinary citizens in the name of stopping "tax" fraud and allowing more state control over people’s finances.
During the conference, Bilderberg will set the consensus for green lighting economic restrictions under the justification of stopping financing for 'terror' groups like ISIS. ( Create and finance these 'terror' groups and then restrict all the people because of the Bilderberg will also discuss new controls on the sale of precious metals throughout Europe.
Numerous influential voices have recently called for eliminating physical currency altogether, giving central banks and governments the power to directly control your finances under the justification of preventing an economic collapse and bank runs.
If it involves “too big to jail” bankers and secrecy, it can’t be good for ordinary people. If cash is criminalized, then everyone will be forced to be on the grid, and using what is essentially a digital currency inside a system controlled and watched from beginning to end by the banking industry. The insiders will then have total power, information on and profit from every transaction. That, surely, is the mark of the beast… a world in which free men are outlawed, and compliance is the only acceptable form of payment.

George Soros predicts class war and riots Rosa Prince, New York 11:52PM GMT 24 Jan 2015
George Soros, the billionaire investor, has predicted riots on the streets and global class war as the economic downturn results in a new "age of fallibility". (Not at all difficult to 'predict' when Soro's money is paying for the recruiting, hiring, training, equipping and deployment of mercenaries for hire.)
In an interview ahead of a speech at the World Economic Forum in Davos, the 81-year-old said that for the first time in his career he was baffled by the current state of the market, and saw no way to avoid a violent crisis which at its worst could result in the total collapse of the financial system.
Known as the "man who broke the Bank of England" after betting against the pound on Black Wednesday in 1992, Mr Soros plans to use his Davos address to issue a stern warning that he now considers it "more likely than not" that Greece will default in 2012. And unless Europe's leaders do more to stop it, the euro is likely to collapse with a devastating impact on the rest of the world, he will add.
The financier compared the crisis to the collapse of the Soviet empire and the Great Depression, adding that the old belief in the power of the market to prevent turmoil could no longer be relied upon.
He told Newsweek: "The euro must survive because the alternative – a break-up – would cause a meltdown that Europe, the world, can't afford. I'm not here to cheer you up. The situation is about as serious and difficult as I've known in my career. We are facing now a general retrenchment in the developed world.
"The best-case scenario is a deflationary environment. The worst-case scenario is a collapse of the financial system. We need to move from the Age of Reason to the Age of Fallibility in order to have a proper understanding of the problems."
Warning that violence on the streets was inevitable unless the problems of unemployment and debt were addressed, he warned this could lead to the erosion of civil liberties and installation of a police state. Asked about the likelihood of riots in the US, he said: "Yes, yes, yes. It will be an excuse for cracking down and using strong arm tactics to maintain law and order which, carried to an extreme, could bring about a repressive political system, a society where individual liberty is much more constrained."
In a recent article from ForbesLife written by Jim Dobson, we get an exclusive look into the Elite’s doomsday bunkers.
This bunker could rival Noah’s Ark, only this bunker is made up for luxury and comfort and not just for making a long trip.
Inside, the bunkers are beautifully decorated. You feel as if you are in a luxury cruise ship rather than a doomsday bunker.
Vivos founder and CEO Robert Vicino announced Vivos Europa One which will be an invitation only, five star, underground survival complex similar to an underground cruise ship for the 'elite'.
Each family will be provided a private 2,500 square foot of floor area capable of two story improvements for a total of 5,000 square feet of private living quarters. With fit and finish comparable to a mega-yacht, each member family will hire their own architect and contractor to build out their living quarters to the custom standard they desire.
The expansive shelter is located in Germany and is one of the most fortified and massive underground survival shelters on Earth. Originally built by the Soviets during the Cold War, this shelter was a fortress for military equipment and munitions. After the DDR was merged with Germany, the German government inherited this relic and intended to use it for the same purpose of weapons storage. However, due to a law prohibiting the storage of ammunition near a major highway, the German Government soon realized they could not continue with their plans and decided to auction this 76 acre complex.
A wealthy investor purchased the entire property, along with all of its improvements, both above and below ground. Vicino says “We are proud to bring this epic project forward in these increasingly dangerous times."
One has to pose the question: Why do the 'elite’ and the extremely wealthy continue to build these sort of accommodations? What is in the future that they deem is necessary to go to such length in the name of safety? Safety from what exactly?
Secured storage tunnel within shelter
This fortified facility is able to withstand a substantial close range nuclear blast, a direct airplane crash, biological and chemical agents, shock waves, earthquakes, tsunami, electro-magnetic pulses and virtually any armed attack.
The complex itself includes over 21,108 square meters (227,904 square feet) of secured, blast proof living areas; and, an additional 4,079 square meters (43,906 square feet) of above-ground office and warehouse buildings, including a train servicing depot.
The typical chamber area is 5 meters wide (16.40 feet), by 6 meters tall (19.68 feet) and 85 meters (278.87 feet) long.
Collectively there are over 5 kilometers (3.1 miles) of continuous tunnel chambers (equivalent to 71 Boeing 747’s fuselages stretched end to end).
All shelter areas are located behind 3 separate nuclear blast and radiation proof vehicle entrances, and a number of other passages for access by people only.
Each of the three main tunnel entrances includes an outer security door system followed by a 40 ton hydraulic truck access door with hardened steel rods which expand into the surrounding encasement, and a second set of massive steel doors providing an airtight seal shut, protecting against chemical, biological and gas intrusion.
The underground main traffic corridors are large enough to allow mechanical transportation of heavy equipment to almost any point within the complex.
Fortified entrance to shelter
The structural rock provides for an extremely high load carrying capacity of the mountain above, as well as superior shock wave absorption, high thermal retention, stable temperature at an average 55 degrees Fahrenheit, and humidity control.
All underground rooms are serviced by two fully customized climate and ventilation systems.
The self-contained water and power generation system with three diesel generators, including redundant back-up systems, assures autonomous operation of the underground shelter without support from the outside world.
This vast limestone mountain contains a water treatment plant with deep water wells, a power plant, a hospital area, restaurant areas, air filtration and cooling systems, as well as a series of massive blast doors which a tank could drive over to enter.
Hospital area in the shelter
The above-ground facilities are equally as impressive, including several office buildings, barracks for a hundred, a power plant, fuel storage, railroad spurs complete with a train depot for repairs, guard buildings, and warehouses, all within an impenetrable perimeter wall, complete with military concertina coils. Once the gates are locked, the only way in or out of the property is by helicopter.
The original cost of the complex was estimated at over 200 million Euros, with a replacement value of approximately 1 billion Euros.
The shelter is currently in turnkey operational condition ready for the common area and private living quarters improvements to outfit the underground complex for a select number of families.
Community swimming pool
In addition, the shelter will include a collection of zoological species, an archive for the most precious artifacts and treasures of the world, a DNA vault to preserve and protect the genomes of millions of donors, and a modern day “Hall of Records” to autonomously survive virtually any catastrophe or disaster for several years. Vivos will retrofit, equip, furnish, stock, supply and convert this complex into a state-of-the-art, contemporary complex.
Private improvements will include all of the typical amenities enjoyed by the floating counterparts, including pools, theaters, gyms, a kitchen, bar, bedrooms and deluxe bathrooms.
The possibilities are limited only by each member’s personal desire.
Vivos will provide each living quarters with power lines, plumbing for water and sewage, HVAC systems, communications lines, security systems, internet and closed circuit systems.
Stairway into the foyer
The common areas will be improved and outfitted by Vivos, including the roadways, restaurants, bakery, brewery pub, wine cellar, community meeting rooms, prayer rooms and chapels, nursery play rooms, classrooms, training rooms, computer areas, a television and radio station, the communications center, security and detention center, vaults for valuables, security equipment and devices, water purification facility, deep water wells, interior water and fuel storage tanks, power plant, air handling and (NBC) nuclear, biological and chemical filtration systems, battery backup power storage, mechanical repair shop, decontamination showers, private offices, pet kennels, a hair salon, theaters, the hydroponic gardens, a fully equipped hospital, storage rooms and warehouse areas, all food and medical supplies, a non-hybrid seed bank and the DNA storage bank.
Vivos will also provide the electric transportation vehicles and trams, armored security vehicles, helicopters, protective suits and apparatus for outdoor chemical, biological and radiation exposure, above-ground offices and warehouses, a security center, the rail spur and maintenance station, the above-ground power plant, above-ground gardens and open space, farming, fishing and hunting equipment, boats and rafts.
Living quarters bedroom
When each member’s private living quarters are complete, they will be furnished and fully outfitted, their respective quarters will be locked and secured, limiting access to their families and staff prior to lock down; while Vivos will operate and maintain all common areas (under and above-ground) pending a catastrophic event.
Members will arrive at their own discretion, prior to lock down, landing their private planes at nearby airports. Vivos helicopters will then be deployed to rendezvous with each member group, and safely fly them back to the shelter compound, behind the sealed gates from the general public.
Members will then enter the shelter and access their private quarters. Each family will pay a base amount for their respective living quarter’s area, along with their fair share of the ongoing stand-by costs for operational management, staffing, taxes, insurance, maintenance, utilities, and restocking as needed.
Living quarters screening room
This isn’t the first time Vivo has planned these unique doomsday retreats in the past including private bunkers for residences, but it is only now that this new location has come to fruition offering up a exceptional potential for those who truly want the ultimate in personal safety for their families.

Why Are So Many Of The Super Wealthy Preparing Bug Out Locations? It is believed to be large enough to house 60,000 persons, with a special air filtration system designed to withstand a nuclear, chemical or biological attack. Enough food and water is believed to be stored at the site to sustain the entire underground population for months on end Die-hard [U.S.] nuclear war planners actually have their eyes on targets in Russia and China, including missile silos and leadership bunkers. For these planners, the Cold War never ended. Their top two candidates [i.e., targets] in Russia are located inside the Yamantau and Kosvinsky mountains in the central and southern Urals.
They have also been constructing thousands of new underground bomb shelters in major cities such as Moscow. Nearly 5,000 new emergency bomb shelters will be built in Moscow by 2012 to save people in case of potential attacks. Though the bunkers are supposed to be designed to shelter the population in the event of a nuclear attack, government officials say it’s only a precaution and they do not expect such an attack or nuclear outbreak (e.g. Chernobyl) to occure The Russians also recently finished work on a brand new national defense center in Moscow that contains extensive underground facilities Russia is launching a new national defense facility, which is meant to monitor threats to national security in peacetime, but would take control of the entire country in case of war.
In addition, the Russians have also been developing a new anti-ballistic missile system that is designed to keep U.S. nuclear missiles from getting to their targets in the first place.
If Obama does decide to send lethal military aid to the Ukrainians, the Russians are going to flip out. We just continue to take even more steps along the road toward World War III, and it is a war that the United States is completely and utterly unprepared for. uncovers one of the biggest and most dangerous issues in recent history, a Rosetta Stone that will decode the deception taking place throughout our world.
As Russians build gigantic underground bunkers, spanning 400 square miles, the elite are planning their escape from America by purchasing airstrips, farms and underground shelters in record numbers. bunker "underground bunker" "emergency shelter" elite millionaire billionaire "new zealand" 2015 2016 russia china shelter military insider war battle ww3 ww2 mountain fema prediction news media entertainment book author "secret society" secret enemy collapse "cold war" gold silver prepare food "food storage" prepper savings strategy humanity leader liberty freedom defense "self defense" banking security "elite nwo agenda" drone trends trending trendy false flag attack nuclear attack nuke chicago nyc fema camp police state usa new world order illuminati 1984 orwell alex jones infowars crazy gerald celente max keiser jim rogers glenn beck anonymous coast to coast am end game collapse demcad montagraph bohemian grove jsnip4 g4t lindsey williams louis farrakhan exposed jay-z illuminati off the grid living
As preparations for nuclear war intensify, the public is being told it’s not a danger anymore. Get this emergency broadcast out to everyone you know before the time for action runs out. Over the past few years, wealthy people all over America have been equipping their homes with futuristic high tech security systems that go far beyond the kinds of things portrayed in recent Hollywood films such as “The Purge“. We are talking about security bunkers with their own sustainable sources of food and water, hidden passageways that lead to ballistics-proof panic suites, and thermal heat detectors that can detect someone hiding up to 15 kilometers away. Most of these security measures will probably never even be needed if things stay pretty much as they are today.
A lot of ultra-rich people are quietly preparing to “bug out” when the time comes. They are buying survival properties, they are buying farms in far away countries and they are buying deep underground bunkers. In fact, a prominent insider at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland says that “very powerful people are telling us they’re scared” and he shocked his audience when he revealed that he knows “hedge fund managers all over the world who are buying airstrips and farms in places like New Zealand”. So what do they know? Why are so many of the super wealthy suddenly preparing bug out locations? When the elite of the world start preparing for doomsday, that is a very troubling sign. And right now the elite appear to be quietly preparing for disaster like never before.
The lack of faith in central bank trustworthiness is spreading. First Germany, then Holland, and Austria, and now - as we noted was possible previously - Texas
has enacted a Bill to repatriate $1 billion of gold from The NY Fed's
vaults to a newly established state gold bullion depository..."People
have this image of Texas as big and powerful … so for a lot of people,
this is exactly where they would want to go with their gold," and the
Bill includes a section to prevent forced seizure from the Federal Government.
From 2011:
"The
University of Texas Investment Management Co., the second-largest U.S.
academic endowment, took delivery of almost $1 billion in gold bullion
and is storing the bars in a New York vault, according to the fund’s board."
The decision to turn the fund’s investment into gold bars was influenced by Kyle Bass, a Dallas hedge fund manager and member of the endowment’s board, Zimmerman said at its annual meeting on April 14. Bass made $500 million on the U.S. subprime-mortgage collapse.
“Central banks are printing more money than they ever have, so what’s
the value of money in terms of purchases of goods and services,” Bass
said yesterday in a telephone interview. “I look at gold as just another currency that they can’t print any more of.”
And now, after we noted the possibility previously,as The Epoch Times reports,
Texas Governor Greg Abbott signed a bill into law on Friday, June 12,
that will allow Texas to build a gold and silver bullion depository. In
addition, Texas will repatriate $1 billion worth of bullion from the
Federal Reserve in New York to the new facility once completed.
On
the surface the bill looks rather innocent, but its implications are
far reaching. HB 483, “relating to the establishment and administration
of a state bullion depository” to store gold and silver coins, was
introduced by state Rep. Giovanni Capriglione.
Capriglione told the Star-Telegram:
“We are not talking Fort Knox. But when I first announced
this, I got so many emails and phone calls from people literally all
over the world who said they want to store their gold … in a Texas
depository. People have this image of Texas as big and powerful … so for
a lot of people, this is exactly where they would want to go with their
gold.”
But isn’t New York, where most of the world’s gold is stored, also
big and powerful? Why does the state of Texas want to go through the
trouble of building its own storage facility?
There are
precisely two important reasons. One involves distrust in the current
storage system. The second threatens the paper money system as a whole.
“In a lot of cases with gold you may not have clear title to the metal. You
may have a counterparty relationship that makes you a creditor. If the
counterparty has a problem unrelated to gold, they can default and then
you become an unsecured creditor in bankruptcy,” said Keith Weiner,
president of the Gold Standard Institute.
This means you get whatever is left after liquidation, often just a fraction of the initial value of your holdings.
“This exact scenario happened with futures broker MF Global. I
knew people who had warehouse receipts to gold bars with a specific
serial number. But that gold had an encumbered title and they became
unsecured creditors in bankruptcy,” said Weiner.
In Texas, two big public pension funds from the University of Texas
(UoT) and the Teacher Retirement System (TRS) own gold worth more than
$1 billion.
Being uncomfortable with holding purely financial gold in the form of
futures and Exchange-traded Funds, University of Texas actually took
delivery of the gold bars in 2011 and warehoused it with HSBC Bank in
New York.
At the time pension fund board member and hedge fund manager Kyle Bass explained: “As
a fiduciary, which I am in that position to the extent you own gold and
you are going for a long time, and it’s not a trade. … We looked at the
COMEX at the time and they had about $80 billion of open interest
between futures and futures options. And in the warehouse they had $2.7
billion of deliverables. We are going to own it a long time. You are on
the board, you are a fiduciary, so that’s an easy one, you go get it.”
Bass is implying that there is much more financial gold out there
than physical, and that it is prudent to actually hold the physical.
Taking the gold to Texas would then also solve the counterparty risk. “In
this case it’s going to be a depository, the gold is going to be there,
they are not going to be able to lend it out and it won’t serve as
collateral for other transactions of the bank.” said Victor Sperandeo of
trading firm EAM Partners. “Because if the bank closes, you are
screwed.”
“I think that somebody was looking at that, we better have
this under our complete control,” said constitutional lawyer and gold
expert Edwin Vieira, of the Texas bill. “They don’t want to have the
gold in some bank somewhere and in two to five years it turns out not to
be there.”
So far most of the attention has focused on the part of the depository and the big institutions. However,
the bill also includes a provision to prevent seizure, which is
important for private parties who want to avoid another 1933 style
confiscation of their bullion by Federal authorities.
Section A2116.023 of the bill states: “A
purported confiscation, requisition, seizure, or other attempt to
control the ownership … is void ab initio and of no force or effect.” Effectively, the state of Texas will protect any gold stored in the depository from the federal government.
And free from the threat of confiscation, private citizens
can use gold and silver as money, completely bypassing the paper money
system.
“People can legally do that with gold contracts. The difficulty is
the implementation. Now Texas has set up a mechanism with the
depository. We have accounts in that institution and can easily transfer
back and forth certain amounts. So we can run our money system a gold or silver basis if we were so inclined,” said Vieira.
This would not be possible if the gold is stored in a bank because of
the risks of bank holidays and bankruptcies. It would also not be possible if the federal government could confiscate gold.
According to Vieira, this anti-seizure provision rests on Article 1,
section 10 of the Constitution of the United States, which obliges the
States to not make anything tender in payment of debts apart from gold
and silver coin.
“If someone from the Department of Justice comes along you are going to see legal and political fireworks.
The state is going to say ‘we need to have a mechanism to make gold and
silver money. This is pursuant to the constitutional provision we have.
You can’t touch this. Our state power on the constitutional level is
more powerful than any statute you may pass,'” said Vieira.
Because one of the litigant parties is a state, the case would go directly to the Supreme Court.
“We are talking about something completely new in terms of the legal playing field. This is no longer a fringe concept,”
he adds, but cautions about a possible fight with the federal
government: “We will have to see how committed the governor and the
attorney general are.”
Governor
Greg Abbott today signed House Bill 483 (Capriglione, R-Southlake;
Kolkhorst, R-Brenham) to establish a state gold bullion depository
administered by the Office of the Comptroller. The law will repatriate
$1 billion of gold bullion from the Federal Reserve in New York to
Texas. The bullion depository will serve as the custodian, guardian and
administrator of bullion that may be transferred to or otherwise
acquired by the State of Texas. Governor Abbott issued the following
statement:
“Today I signed
HB 483 to provide a secure facility for the State of Texas, state
agencies and Texas citizens to store gold bullion and other precious
metals. With the passage of this bill, the Texas Bullion Depository will
become the first state-level facility of its kind in the nation,
increasing the security and stability of our gold reserves and keeping
taxpayer funds from leaving Texas to pay for fees to store gold in
facilities outside our state."
* * * Is this the first step down a road to secession? Notably,
they'll need that gold to establish their own country once they win the
potentially imminent war with the US military which starts on Monday
(Jade Helm).
* * * This implicit subordination of The Fed's gold sends a more
ominous signal of rising fears of confiscation and leaves us wondering
just how long before every state (and or country) decides to follow
Texas' lead?
Local governments now have the right to tell you how to store your guns thanks to the inaction of the US Supreme Court.
The court Monday refused to hear an appeal of a US Ninth Circuit
Court of Appeals ruling that upheld a San Francisco ordinance requiring
owners in their own home either to store firearms in a locked container
or disable them with trigger locks when not in use. Gun owners can wear the gun in a holster, but other than that, the gun must be put away.
As is usual, the Supreme Court did not explain why it didn’t hear the case, although two justices argued the court should have heard it.
“San Francisco’s law allows residents to use their handguns for the
purpose of self-defense, but it prohibits them from keeping those handguns
operable for the purpose of immediate self-defense when not carried on
the person,” US Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas wrote in a six
page dissent about the case, Jackson v. City & County of San Francisco. My Personal Defender: Low Cost Way To Defend Yourself Against Lowlife Criminal Scum!
Justice Antonin Scalia joined Thomas’ dissent.
“In an emergency situation, the delay imposed by this law could
prevent San Francisco residents from using their handguns for the lawful
purpose of self-defense,” Thomas stated. “And that delay could easily
be the difference between life and death.”
Thomas added, “The law thus burdens their right to self-defense at
the times they are most vulnerable – when they are sleeping, bathing,
changing clothes, or otherwise indisposed. There is consequently no
question that San Francisco’s law burdens the core of the Second
Amendment right.” According to the San Francisco ordinance,
violators could face up to six months in jail and a $1,000 fine. Six
San Francisco residents joined the NRA and the San Francisco Veteran
Police Officers Association in 2009 in challenging the law in federal
court. Conflicts with Landmark Heller Ruling
Thomas contended that the Ninth Circuit’s decision in Jackson conflicts with a landmark US Supreme Court ruling, District of Columbia v. Heller.
In that case, the Supreme Court ruled for the first time that the
Second Amendment gives citizens a right to own firearms and possess them
within the home for self-defense. Heller struck down a Washington, D.C. law that banned the possession of handguns.
The court’s ruling means that the San Francisco ordinance and similar
laws in states and territories in the Ninth Circuit can be enforced.
The Ninth Circuit covers Hawaii, Alaska, California, Nevada, Arizona,
Idaho, Montana, Oregon and Washington state.
But the law also gives a boost to gun control advocates outside of
the Ninth Circuit who want to see other cities pass similar ordinances.

A change in the
world economic order certainly fits in with what we cover here on this
blog which is potential monetary system change. This article by the Director of the China Center for Economic Studies
talks about how China is trying to remake the world economic order more
in its favor. We continue to note however, that virtually every
credible Chinese official or expert that touches on this topic talks in
terms of a slow and gradual process over many years. Below are some
quotes from this article by Zhang Jun.
"Economists are increasingly divided over China’s economic future.
Optimists emphasize its capacity for learning and rapid accumulation of
human capital. Pessimists focus on the rapid decline of its demographic
dividend, its high debt-to-GDP ratio, the contraction of its export
markets, and its industrial overcapacity. But both groups neglect a more
fundamental determinant of China’s economic prospects: the world order.
The question is simple: Can China sustain rapid GDP growth within the
confines of the current global order, including its trade rules, or must
the current US-dominated order change drastically to accommodate
China’s continued economic rise? The answer, however, remains unclear.
One way that China is attempting to find out is by pushing to have the renminbi added to
the basket of currencies that determine the value of the International
Monetary Fund’s reserve asset, the Special Drawing Right (SDR). As it
stands, that basket comprises the euro, the Japanese yen, the British
pound, and the US dollar.
The SDR issue was the audience’s main concern when IMF Managing Director
Christine Lagarde spoke in Shanghai in April. Her stance – that it is
just a matter of time before the renminbi is added to the basket –
garnered considerable media attention. (Regrettably, however, the media
read too much into her statement.)
Former US Federal Reserve Chair Ben Bernanke faced the same question in
Shanghai last month. He was purposely vague in his response: the
renminbi’s inclusion in the SDR would be a positive step, he said, but
it could not be taken until China makes much more progress in reforming
its financial sector and transforming its growth model."
. . . .
"From China’s perspective, sustained domestic economic growth seems unlikely within the existing global system
– a challenge that Japan and the other East Asian economies did not
encounter during their economic rise. Indeed, the only country that has
encountered it is the US, when it replaced the UK as the world’s
dominant economic and financial power before World War II; fortunately,
that precedent is one of accommodation and a peaceful transition.
To
be sure, China still needs to undertake important domestic reforms,
especially of the financial sector, in order to eliminate distortions in
resource allocation and stem the economy’s slowdown. But the refusal by
China’s leaders to pursue export-boosting currency depreciation, even
in the face of decelerating growth, suggests that they are willing to
make the needed sacrifices to secure the renminbi’s international role
and, with it, long-term economic growth and prosperity.
Whether or not the renminbi is added to the SDR basket this October, a gradual transformation of the global system to accommodate China seems all but inevitable."
Armstrong,
the author of the forwarded commentary (below), means well, and he has some
really insightful analysis in several areas. He's also a
"constitution-ist" at heart, which simply means that the tint in his glasses is
just a little different from the tint in this author's glasses.
The title
of Armstrong's discussion is, shall we say, a bit overbroad. This author
finds it fair to say that Armstrong wants that entire "administrative" system
done away with, and, of course, Armstrong is in good company. However,
that's simply not going to happen, and it might not happen even if we were back
on a system of honest weights and measures.
The trial court's ruling is
available, and this author can provide a .pdf file of a de-linked version made
available through Lexis. What follows is a de-hornswagglesed
rendition.
The plaintiff in that matter, HILL, traded some stock and made
$744,000. The SEC called it "insider trading" and wanted to bust him for
it by processes conducted by the SEC's own administrative forum. HILL
objects to the SEC's selection of forum for resolution of that dispute.
That's pretty practical on HILL's side, for it surely can't be much different
from being hauled before the "tax court" on a "tax" matter. The results
are fairly predictable on a good many issues.
He seeks a preliminary
injunction, and he argues four "constitutional" points:
(1) the Dodd-Frank Act violates Article I
of the Constitution because it gives the SEC unfettered discretion to select its
forum;
(2) the SEC's decision to prosecute the claims against him
in the administrative proceeding rather than the district court violates his
Seventh Amendment right to a jury trial; and
(3) (A) the first of two claims
under Article II of the Constitution, that the ALJ's appointment violates the
Appointments Clause of Article II because he was not appointed by the President,
a court of law, or a department head, and
(4) (B) the second of the two Art. II claims, that the ALJ's two-layer
tenure protection violates the Constitution's separation of powers, specifically
the President's ability to exercise Executive power over his inferior
officers.
"Both of Plaintiff's arguments depend on this Court['s]
finding that the ALJ is an inferior officer who would trigger these
constitutional protections." For which reason, the court analyzes whether
the SEC's ALJ position is that of an inferior officer.
As for keeping
the lid on, this trial court's ruling is superb!
As for review of this in
terms of reality, the analysis isn't anything like as long.
(1) For the first one, choice of forum for dispute resolution, since there
is no "constitution," there's nothing about Art. I that's relevant. What
is relevant is whether HILL has somehow consented to arbitration in/by
the SEC. That's something that may very well be part and parcel of
participating in that particular investment scheme/plan/game. This author
has no direct confirmation at the moment, either way, as to whether the mere act
of trading stocks, etc., is an act of consent to SEC arbitration.
A point
the trial court makes is that up until just a few years ago, the SEC was
restricted to taking only those who were "registered" into their arbitration
forum. Of course, to be "registered" is to have consented to everything,
including SEC's arbitration. Presently, the SEC purports to have authority
regarding "any person." This author expects that should be read as "any
person who consents to SEC arbitration," and that then begs the question as to
when/how someone "may" so consent.
What Armstrong doesn't yet have in his
wheelhouse for such matters is that all "agency" activity (all "administrative"
activity) is arbitration. No arbitration forum has authority without the
consent of both (all) parties. So, if HILL is, in fact, subject to SEC
arbitration, and it appears that he is (whether that consent occurred
while/because he was trading stocks or after the dispute arose is the $64
Question in the mind of this author), then Art. I is wholly and completely
irrelevant. Because why? Because HILL consented to SEC arbitration.
The SEC most assuredly does not have unfettered discretion in its choice of
forum. There'll be authority for the SEC's arbitration if and only if the
HILLs of the world have consented to such arbitration. So, if that's where the
SEC drags "any person," and if that party hasn't already consented to such
alternate dispute resolution process, then the thing that makes all the
difference in the world is that party's formal non-consent to arbitration.
To throw the "constitution" at the matter is to be
confused about "federal." Where one accepts what we've all been taught, namely
that "federal" means either "national," or "constitutional," or both, then one
is likely to throw the "constitution" at these purely commercial matters/issues.
However, to break through that barrier and come to terms with the fact that
"federal" means "by agreement," then this whole smoke and mirrors called
"administrative law" comes crashing down.
There's not one word
said, overtly, about HILL's consent. It's suggested, though, in what is
said, and what is said is that his "constitutional" objection to forum selection
is overruled.
(2) For this second one, the trial court overrules
HILL's objection that he's being denied a jury trial. He's not being
denied anything if he's consented to SEC-sponsored arbitration. There is
no Seventh Amendment, for there is nothing there to amend. Beyond
that, we don't have Juries; we have administrative advisory panels. Those
are a right smart better to have than nothing, to be sure, but they no more have
the authority to determine the law than they have the ability to jump to the
moon and back.
((3) A & (4) B of the Art. II claims) For
this third one, the trial court sustained HILL's objection to the
manner in which the SEC's ALJs come into their positions. These objections are
raised under Art. II, which, of course, doesn't exist, but which provides a
basis for reining in on the SEC. The trial court finds that the SEC's ALJ
are "inferior officers," and, as such, they may be appointed by a
particularly limited means, i.e., whether by the president, by the heads of the
department, or by the judiciary. Since that's not how the ALJ assigned to
HILL's matter obtained his position as an ALJ, the court has stopped the SEC
from proceeding in their arbitration with HILL.
So, it approaches outrageous, and it's
definitely irresponsible, to say, in a headline on a note commenting on this
HILL v. SEC ruling, that the arbitration process, fully sustained
and encouraged by the rulings on the first two "constitutional" points, has
somehow been rendered "illegal." No, it most certainly has not, and no, it
most certainly will not be.
What has been changed, by
this trial court's ruling, which has yet to be reviewed up the chain of command
(next stop, 11th Cir.; then, the Supremes), is the manner in which the SEC's ALJs are
appointed. That's a major change, no doubt, but it's a "gadget defense,"
in that it's 100% fixable by the SEC. So, it's a temporary
thing. Long term, it might or might not make one stinkin' bit of
difference as to the determination of whether there's "insider trading" going
on, here, or not. HILL's arbitration matter will linger until there's a
duly appointed ALJ, and then what's going to be different? Nothing.
Why not? Because it most certainly appears that he's consented to SEC
arbitration.
It might not be possible to trade stocks (at least trade
those stocks) and to avoid consenting to SEC arbitration. That
"gotcha agreement" has not yet been studied into by this author. But,
there's zero question that the SEC's own forum is a forum of binding
arbitration, and there's only one way to get into that form of alternative
decision-making: 100% voluntarily (whether we realized our voluntary act at the
moment it happened or not).
So, once the SEC has properly appointed ALJs,
they'll be right back doing their arbitration thing.
JUDGE RULES ADMINSTRATIVE COURT SYSTEM
ILLEGAL AFTER 81 YEARS. [People, this is important news and a must
read. Perhaps this will eliminate the IRS "Tax Court" ???]

Judge Rules Administrative Court System
Illegal After 81 Years
Well
it has been a long time coming, but all along there have been discussions behind
closed doors (never in public) that the Administrative Law Courts established
with the New Deal were totally unfounded and unconstitutional. With the
anniversary of Magna Carta and the right to a jury trial coming up on June 15,
after 800 years, the era of Roosevelt’s big government is quietly
unraveling.
A
federal judge’s ruling against the Securities and Exchange Commission for using
its own Administrative Law judges in an insider trading case is perhaps the
beginning of the end of an alternative system of justice that took root in the
New Deal. Constitutionally, the socialists tore everything about the idea of a
Democracy apart. It was more than taxing one party to the cheers of another in
denial of equal protection. It was about creating administrative agencies (1)
delegating them to create rules with the force of law as if passed by Congress
sanctioned by the people; (2) the creation of administrative courts that
defeated the Tripartite government structure usurping all power into the hand of
the executive branch, as if this were a dictatorship run by the great hoard of
unelected officials.
Not
discussed in the coverage of this story is that the Administrative Law Courts
are a fiefdom, to put it mildly. They have long been corrupt and traditionally
rule in favor of their agencies, making it very costly for anyone to even try to
defend themselves. If someone were to attempt this feat, first they have to wear
the costs of an Administration proceeding and appeal to an Article III court
judge, then they must appeal to the Court of Appeals, and finally plea to the
Supreme Court. The cost of such adventures is well into the millions, and good
luck on actually getting justice.
Furthermore,
Administrative Law Courts cannot sentence you to prison, but they can fine you
into bankruptcy. So the lack of a criminal prosecution meant the judges did not
have to be lawyers. They could be anyone’s brother-in-law looking for a job
where he just rules in favor of the agency not to be bothered with law. Unless
the victim has a pile of money, there is no real chance that he or she can
afford to defend themselves. This is why the agencies cut deals with the big
houses and prosecute the small upstarts who lack the funds to defend
themselves.
In
a 45-page ruling, U.S. District Judge Leigh Martin May in Atlanta issued an
injunction halting Administrative Law proceedings against Charles Hill, a
businessman who the SEC accused of reaping an illegal $744,000 profit trading in
Radian Systems stock. This is typical. The legal fees involved will exceed the
amount of money he is alleged to have made, the typical result is to just pay
the fine and they go away, it is cheaper.
The
judge ruled that the SEC agency violated theAppointments
Clauseof the
Constitution by subjecting Hill to proceedings before an Administrative Law
judge, who isn’t directly accountable to the president, officials in charge of
the SEC, or the courts under Article III. The ruling is 81 years overdue. The
entire structure of administrative agencies blackmailing people has been
outrageous. Then you take the banks who just entered a plea ofCRIMINALLYguilty to manipulating markets. They
are now formallyFELONSwho engaged in violating SEC rules and
thus under the SEC rules, they are no longer eligible for a banking license. The
banks are “too big to jail” and the SEC has waived their own rules, of
course, to exempt the banks. So they can engage in fraud and manipulation, get
caught, pay billions in fines, and theSEC exempts
them from losing their licenses. This is how corrupt
the administrative agencies really are.
This
new decision calling the Administrative Law Courts what they really are is
reminiscent of the notorious extra judicial proceedings of the Star
Chamber operated by King James I. The court of Chancery set up outside of the
King’s Bench, so there were no trials by jury. It had the same purpose, to
circumvent the law. This is where our Fifth Amendment privilege came into being.
That came about following the trial of John Lilburne (1615-1657) for handing out
a pamphlet the government did not like.
TheMiranda v
Arizona384
U.S. 436 (1966) decision of the Supreme Court came only after decades of abuse
by American police against citizens, not unlike what we are watching today.
TheMirandadecision is hated by police,
prosecutors, right-wing judges, politicians, and citizens. The decision is based
upon the history of the right not to be coerced that began with the famous trial
of John Lilburn before the English court of theStar Chamberin 1637 where he stood tall and
objected to the King’s torture. Lilburn’s crime was handing out pamphlets
against the king. John Lilburne (1615–1657) was a leader in theLeveller
Movementof the
1640s and was a prolific pamphleteer who defended religious and individual
liberty of the people. He was imprisoned many times for his views and was active
in the army of the New Parliament rising to the rank of Lieutenant Colonel. In
October 1649, he was arrested and tried for High Treason for printing and
circulating books and pamphlets critical of the government but was acquitted of
all charges by a jury of his peers.
