Someday They're Going To Write Books About This!

Authored by Bruce Wilds via Advancing Time blog,
What is occurring today is absolutely mind-boggling. Someday they are going to write books about this! While there have been some messed up financial conundrums over the years none rival the current situation now before us. The dilemma before us is a fast-moving enigma wrapped in a gossamer cloak.
Not only are the players that make up the global political-financial complex busy buying up bad debt, stocks, and bailing out those they deem too big to fail, they have destroyed the concept of real interest on loans. They have trampled all over true price discovery the basis of a free market.
The budget forecast be damned, its full speed ahead. The only justification we need is saying it will be far worse if we do nothing. The bungled response of a delusional government so obsessed with the idea that by simply passing legislation they can make things happen should not be overlooked.
The Paycheck Protection Program or PPP was originally funded with $350 billion but the money was soon gone. Of the thirty million small businesses in America, only 1.7 million received money from the 2.3 trillion dollar aid package passed to help sustain America during this difficult time.
This resulted in more funding but still, the last report I saw indicated only around 13% of the, less than half the businesses that were eligible, were approved before the fund was again depleted and 60% of these had yet to receive any money.
Just as poorly handled was rapidly getting out money promised to individuals and creating a system where many people could receive more money by collecting unemployment than returning to work. The problem is that when all is said and done, large businesses with access to cheap capital will again be the winners and the big losers are the middle-class, small businesses, and social mobility.

It has become difficult to comprehend the size of the failure the political-financial complex has designed. This is partly because stocks have continued to soar with every announcement of rising unemployment and even as businesses continue to fail or file for bankruptcy. Bad news is not good news.
The sick idea that poor spending habits are the answer to achieving a faster-growing economy is absurd and twisted. This is not new, politicians seem unable to grasp the fact economic growth does not necessarily bring about economic strength or long-term prosperity. Following 9-11 I remember then-President George Bush encouraging and pleading for Americans to rush out and buy more junk.
In a world where central banks are pouring out money to stimulate an economy eager to die the question many people are asking is will it work? Until now it appears these actions are only postponing the inevitable.

How The Fed Is Quietly Generating More Inflation Again
Notes From the Field By James Hicks (Simon Black / Sovereign Man) November 11, 2026
For most of the past eighty years, pretty much every foreign government on the planet parked their national savings in US government bonds. It was a no-brainer. US Treasury bonds paid interest. They were extremely liquid and could be sold in seconds. And they were backed by the wealthiest, most powerful, most creditworthy nation on Earth.

Greetings Citizens!

Bix Weir - The Golden Age Was Planned A Long Time Ago, Hidden Gold Will Be Used For The New System
X22 Spotlight Report: 11-13-2026
The economic transition unfolding globally is depicted as a battle between the failing old guard of central banks and a rising new system championed by figures like Trump, who is implementing tariffs, exposing fraud, and targeting the Federal Reserve for dismantlement.
The exposure and collapse of the Great Reset agenda—characterized by scams like the green new deal that have devastated economies such as Germany's with soaring energy costs and remote control over infrastructure—contrasted with the Great Awakening, where unity, accountability, and reversals like domestic oil discoveries and deportation policies lower costs and reclaim national sovereignty.

Why Gold Is Falling While Central Banks Keep Buying | World Gold Council’s Joe Cavatoni
Kitco News: 11-13-2026
Gold fell as much as $135 an ounce on Nov. 12 to a new low for the year, even as central banks keep buying.
The World Gold Council estimates central banks bought 321 tons last quarter, but only 120 tons was reported, leaving 63% undisclosed.
Joe Cavatoni, the council's senior market strategist for the Americas, said the most active buyers "are either not reporting or reporting late," and that central banks tend to step in when prices dip. He said gold "overshot" in January and that the pullback is closer to what the council expected.

XRP, the Global RV, and the Architecture of Sovereign Money

“How can sovereign nations exchange enormous amounts of value, across different currencies and financial systems, without surrendering monetary sovereignty to a centralized intermediary?”

Tishwash: Concerns about postponing the 2027 budget
With the parliamentary session nearing its end this month, concerns are mounting about the potential postponement of the 2027 budget bill, particularly after the cabinet meeting scheduled for Saturday was adjourned due to ongoing political disputes.
The most significant sticking points revolve around oil and non-oil revenues, disagreements with the Kurdistan Region, provincial allocations, and the issue of borrowing.
MP Kadhim Atiya explained to Al-Sabah newspaper that the delay stems from the lack of a comprehensive revenue tally, warning of potential shortages in provincial allocations.
