A telephone call between a financial adviser in Beverly Hills and a trader in New York was all it took to fleece taxpayers on a water-and-sewer financing deal in West Virginia. The secret conversation was part of a conspiracy stretching across the U.S. by Wall Street banks in the $2.8 trillion municipal bond market.

How Investors Made Millions from People Facing Eviction

A six-year conspiracy by veteran real estate investors to rig bids and stifle competition at tax sale auctions made two chief organizers at least $10 million, largely from fees homeowners paid to keep from losing their properties, according to federal prosecutors.

More homeowners choose to default on loans

The report found that the incidence of strategic default is higher among those with higher credit scores and larger loan balances.

How Stagnant Pools of Government Money Could Help Save the Economy

Ellen Brown, Truthout: "For over a decade, accountant Walter Burien has been trying to rouse the public over what he contends is a massive conspiracy and cover-up, involving trillions of dollars squirreled away in funds maintained at every level of government. His numbers may be disputed, but these funds definitely exist, as evidenced by the Comprehensive Annual Financial Reports (CAFRs) required of every government agency. If they don't represent a concerted government conspiracy, what are they for?"

The Baltimore, MD police are determined to establish new law by broadly reinterpreting (to their advantage, of course) how an existing law on wiretapping can be applied. Recording people on a public street where no expectation of privacy exists doesn’t fit the traditional interpretation of wiretapping, especially since the use of cameras-on-the-street by authorities has become ubiquitous. So why is 24-year-old Anthony John Graber III facing criminal charges for a video he recorded on his helmet-mounted camera during a March 5 traffic stop? Because some of the footage was posted to the Internet and it embarrassed the police officer involved, Trooper J.D. Uhler...

When the Greek economy melted down recently its citizens rioted in the streets. Some have called it ‘the death-spiral of a welfare state’ — too much borrowing for too many social programs for too long. Eventually, the bottom falls out, says the Christian Broadcasting Network. But if you don’t think the economic chaos in Greece can come to America, economists say think again. America is on a fiscal course economists warn is unsustainable — racking up debts we will not be able to repay. This nation, they warn, is already on the path to economic ruin...

What we are grappling with today is a government that is cutting great roads through the very foundations of freedom in order to get after its modern devils. Yet the government can only go as far as “we the people” allow. Therein lies the problem. Having allowed the government to expand and exceed our reach, we find ourselves on the losing end of a tug-of-war over control of our country and our lives. The hour grows late in terms of restoring the balance of power and reclaiming our freedoms, but it may not be too late...

Dave Lindorff, ThisCan'tBeHappening: "President Obama claims to have learned a lesson from the disastrous blowout of British Petroleum drilling rig in the Gulf of Mexico: a 'cozy relationship' between the agency that regulates oil drilling, the Minerals Management Service, and the oil industry, he charges, allowed companies to drill in vulnerable offshore areas without properly assessing the risks to the ocean and its ecology."

Reportage of the explosion of the Deepwater Horizons offshore drilling rig is full of facts about ecological devastation, mismanagement of the rig, corporate wrong-doing and, rightfully, Barack Obama's abominable stance on offshore drilling. But could something good come out of this mess?"

Can you see the government’s hidden role in the BP oil spill?

Downsize DC
by James Leroy Wilson

05/17/10

The BP oil spill is another example of the destructive nature of government guarantees and bailouts. I know that BP has agreed to pay more of the clean-up costs, beyond the government-provided liability cap. I also know that they’ve been threatened by Congress and the Administration if they don’t. But this is hypocritical, because Congress created the liability cap and the clean up fund in the first place!

Do good, upstanding citizens have a moral obligation to allow themselves to be oppressed, harassed, terrorized, assaulted, and wrongfully detained or imprisoned? Most people would say ‘no.’ But would most people actually mean it? There are many examples of ‘law enforcers’ treating innocent people like dirt.

"Die Bundeswehr im Kriegseinsatz in Afghanistan - Die militärische Situation
2010 für Deutschland"

Referent: Jürgen Rose, Oberstleutnant a.D. - (Buch: "Ernstfall Angriffskrieg")

Dienstag, 8. Juni 2010, 19.30 Uhr - Einlass 19:00 Uhr - Der Eintritt ist frei
In den Räumen des Hansa-Hauses, Brienner Str. 39, Rgb., (Rahnstüberl) MVV-Haltestellen: Königsplatz (U2) oder Stiglmaierplatz (U1/Tram 20+21)

Kurzzusammenfassung durch den Referenten:

"Bis zu 50 000 Opfer, vorwiegend Zivilisten, forderte der Krieg in Afghanistan seit 2001. Eine schleichende Eskalation des Krieges ist festzustellen. In Bagram gibt es ein Foltergefängnis. Armut und Hunger haben laut UN-Berichten erschreckende Ausmaße angenommen. Die Geschehnisse in Afghanistan erinnern zunehmend an den Irakkrieg.

Der Referent Jürgen Rose befasste sich als Pädagoge, Publizist und wissenschaftlicher Mitarbeiter mit sicherheitspolitischen Fragestellungen - u. a. am Institut für Internationale Politik, Sicherheitspolitik, Wehrrecht und Völkerrecht an der Universität der Bundeswehr München und am George C. Marshall European Center for Security Studies.

2007 verweigerte Rose seine Mitarbeit an Unterstützungsleistungen zum Tornadoeinsatz in Afghanistan. Er wird u.a. darüber berichten, welche Aufgaben die mit deutschem Personal besetzten Tornados und AWACS in diesem Krieg übernehmen - und wie diese Einsätze für die deutsche Öffentlichkeit verharmlost werden.

Rose stellt die Frage nach den Zielen der Kämpfe: Geht es um die Aufrechterhaltung der Sicherheit in Afghanistan zum Schutz der Bevölkerung und zur Abwehr von islamischen Extremisten oder geht es um geopolitische Interessen?"

Referent: Jürgen Rose, geb. 18. Juli 1958, Diplom-Pädagoge und Publizist, ist seit fast dreißig Jahren als Seminarleiter und Dozent bei akademischen Veranstaltungen in der gesamten Bundesrepublik Deutschland, in England, Österreich und der Schweiz tätig. Er ist Mitglied im AK »Darmstädter Signal«, einem Arbeitskreis kritischer Offiziere und Unteroffiziere innerhalb der Bundeswehr. Seine militärische Ausbildung erfolgte u.a. in Fort Bliss, Texas/USA.

Bundeswehr führt in Afghanistan einen Wirtschaftskrieg

Der Vorsitzende der LINKEN, Klaus Ernst fordert nach den umstrittenen Äußerungen von Bundespräsident Köhler eine Neuabstimmung des Bundestags über den Afghanistan-Einsatz der Bundeswehr. Weder die Mandate noch die Verfassung deckten Wirtschaftskriege ab, so Ernst. Er erklärt:

Das war kein Missverständnis. Köhler hat offen gesagt, was nicht zu leugnen ist. In Afghanistan riskieren Bundeswehr-Soldaten Gesundheit und Leben für die Exportinteressen riesiger Konzerne. Die laute Kritik der SPD soll nur von der Verantwortung der Sozialdemokraten für dieses militärische Abenteuer ablenken. Das ist kein friedenssichernder Einsatz sondern ein Krieg um Einfluss und Rohstoffe. Die Afghanistan-Mandate des Bundestags decken die Realität am Hindukusch nicht ab. Das Grundgesetz erlaubt der Bundeswehr keine Wirtschaftskriege. Mit Krieg schafft man keinen Frieden. Die Bundeswehr muss aus Afghanistan abziehen. So will es die Mehrheit der Bevölkerung. Der Einsatz muss so schnell wie möglich neu im Parlament abgestimmt werden. Dann muss jeder Abgeordnete vor seinem Gewissen verantworten, ob er unsere Soldaten in einen Krieg schicken will, der den Exportinteressen deutscher Unternehmen dient.
