APRIL 10TH, 2020 IN THIS ISSSUE, WE LOOK AT THE MASSIVE PROBLEMS WITH THE ECONOMY COUPLED WITH THE ENDLESS OPTIMISM OF THE FED- ALWAYS READY AND WILLING TO SAVE US ; QUESTIONS REGARDING THE ORIGIN OF CORONA VIRUS AND, DESPITE SOME OCCASION FOR HOPE, PARTICULARLY IN NEW YORK, ITS NEW DIMENSIONS AS OF TODAY; HAS ONLINE CENSORSHIP BEEN MOVING UP DRAMATICALLY, PARTICULARLY IN RESPONSE TO QUESTIONS ABOUT THE CORONA VIRUS?

Here is some rather disturbing news about the Virus in New York- but also some good news- or so it seems.

First, let’s look at the Economy. Greg Mannarino, whose take on things is generally dramatic, continues his narrative as, pre-market, futures ascend rapidly despite the massive job losses. Incidentally, yes, Mannarino tends to be dramatic, quarrelsome, angry and sarcastic, depending on his mood- but this may be because he sees more of what is going on than other analysts. Is this now the New America (which he calls us), an epithet he began to use when the Fed announced more publicly it was going to buy stocks and, around the same time, was beginning to loan money to other central banks around the world. Is the Fed, which he now calls The World Central Bank, now going to try and buy everything- perhaps the entire world?

In this video, he looks at the way his New America Stock Market responded to a gigantic loss of employment on Thursday.

Well, I do think there are some newer moments- but I think the collaboration between government and business, favoring the large corporations (as well as the very wealthy) is NOT ALL THAT NEW! For those that were aware, our government has largely been owned by these same corporations and the very wealthy- for a good deal of time. And American imperialism did not begin with Trump and is a war-like trend that was there from the very beginning when we began to assume our rights to Indian land. But getting back to my point, corporate fascism has been with us for a long time.

But to speak to Mannarino’s main pointa, considering the astounding debt increase, the continuing favoring of Big Business as in the stimulus package, the drastic slow-down of our economy (and the rest of the world) and the attempt to what Mannarino calls “the dollarization of the world,”- and the growing infringement on general prosperity and our human rights, including the right for a free press and protection of our rights by the law, I can see how we could call it a New America. We do have the same Constitution- but we do seem to be violating it more often – and flagrantly, right out in the open.

But Gregory is not the only person distracted by the behavior of central banks. David Quintieri, analyst, author and broadcaster is as well. He pulls no punches- but perhaps in a quieter way. In his videos, he makes quite an effort to educate his audience as to the exact sources for his facts and opinions. In this video, he is appalled by the Fed’s new appetite for junk bonds and the grievous risks they are taking with our currency.

One of the serious problems we are facing is media censorship. This is happening to many serious people in YouTube, which has grown to be perhaps the most prolific provider of news.

One of these targets is for people speaking about the Corona virus. Whereas I quite believe in taking the recommended precautions regarding the virus, I certainly think this event has crippled the United States economy more so than anything else has happened historically. It certainly needs to be discussed- including the various rights, freedom and prosperity that have been and will continue to be subtracted from our daily lives owing to its fundamental intrusion in our lives.

After being censored by YouTube, Doctor Rashid A Buttar speaks about his efforts to explain his research into the Corona virus. Whether it is true or not, his work is based on lengthy research and I believe passionate commitment to letting the public know what he is found. He also explains what he thinks may be the best basic health efforts you can take in regards to the virus.

One very strong critic of American foreign policy is Ryan Cristian. He also has faced the perplexing and sometimes arbitrary-seeming effects of censorship. Yes, there are certainly a lot of conspiracy theories floating around on the Internet, but since perhaps some of the most profound actual conspiracies may be reflected in government and major media, perhaps we should give most so-called conspirators their day in the court of public opinion. There are, of course, rational limits to speaking out- like creating a fraudulent emergency or lobbying for unjustified violence against others- but we are talking here of protecting ourselves from the suppression of truth- and, yes, in this instance, there will be some great untruth that slips through the cracks.

Here is some reporting on the Corona viruses in the GrayZone- discussing some of the uncanny foreshadowing of the current pandemic in a public presentation shortly before actual outbreak.
