A very quick and easy approximation for π is 22/7 = 3.1428571…

But as you can see, 22/7 is not exactly correct. In fact, π is not equal to the ratio of any two numbers, which makes it an IRRATIONAL NUMBER. An irrational number is a real number that cannot be written as a simple fraction. Irrational means not rational.

This definition might also apply to politicians.

Muslim immigrants will petition for a referendum in Switzerland to change the national flag. They argue it is a Christian symbol and the flag should represent the separation between church and state.

Well, what about the Swiss Guard who protects the pope? Less than 40% of Swiss are Catholic. This too would then offend the majority somehow. OOPS!

Well, the U.S. flag has 13 stripes. Doesn’t this offend the states that joined the original 13 colonies since they are being slighted? Seems we are abandoning the past because of the present.

Then there is the income tax. The Bible says you should give only a tenth. “Tithe” means a tenth or 10%. Isn’t taxing everyone far more than 10% a violation of the First Amendment right of the Freedom of Religion? You cannot practice your religion if the government violates it by creating law. What haven’t the lawyers mounted a class action lawsuit under this position?

The politicians are scared to death of Trump because he does what they fear to do: speak his mind. Politicians have to be prevaricators, hypocrites, and liars every single day. The problem becomes a major conflict when their lies are exposed when pursuing another dubious goal. Obama has slipped but, of course, the mainstream media will not call him out for it. In his support to force Apple to write a program to hack all phones, he admitted this was not about terrorism, but taxes. Obama has come out and actually said that if the government can’t access everyone’s phones, then “everybody is walking around with a Swiss Bank account in their pocket.” Gee. What happened to the terrorist?

As I have been warning, this is the hunt for money because they are dead broke. We are losing ALL our rights, privileges, and immunities because they want our money. They are, indeed, creating George Orwell’s frightening view of the future in his classic work “1984.” Our government has made hiding money from the government “money laundering” and can imprison you for 20 years if found guilty. They lie to us all the time about everything. Above all, we lie to ourselves because we want to believe something that is typically in our self-interest. The person listens to his own justification of political lies and lies to himself. It then reaches a point where they cannot distinguish the truth when confronted with a contradiction. Ultimately, they lose all respect for themselves and for others. They fall down the stairs of integrity until they reach the bottom and lose it all because they refused to question the lies that fed their own self-interests. They have no respect left for anything and are incapable of caring or love for it is only about them.

Well, here it comes: criminal prosecution for denying there is “climate change” all because this will be the next great tax to match Obamacare. Forget freedom of speech, that is following the 4th and 5th Amendments down the drain. We are heading into that dark, deep hole of authoritarian regimes.

I have friends who fled here from Eastern Europe and Russia. The one comment they make often is that everything they ran away from is happening right here. They see it, for that is what they fled. We tend to ignore everything until it is just too late.

Trump may want to build a wall to prevent migrants from entering. The rest of Congress is quietly building a wall to trap us inside. FATCA has eliminated the ability to have any account outside the USA, even for legitimate small businesses. The IRS can revoke your passport if they THINK you owe $50,000 in taxes, fines, or penalties. This is not going to end nicely. Law schools these days are putting out a crop of lawyers who are trained in how to circumvent the Constitution, not defend it.

QUESTION: Marty, do you think Hillary will just wipe us out when social security goes bust next year?

ANSWER: Absolutely. I cannot think of anyone I regard as more dangerous for the economy than Hillary. She is a greedy socialist who applies Marxism to everyone but herself and friends. She says that government creates job; not the private sector. Would the NY bankers support her if she stood against them? Goldman Sachs has publicly called Sanders dangerous, not Hillary. That proves the entire point. Hillary is a very astute politician. There are fewer women in politics because it is too much trouble to put makeup on two faces. Hillary has mastered that accomplishment. She is amazing. She can get votes from the rich and the poor by pretending to protect both from the other when speaking privately with a smile and a wink. Hillary is too smart to be a criminal. She figured out that politics earns much more and you can never be prosecuted.

Hillary will never release transcripts of her Goldman Sachs speeches because she sounded like a managing director of the firm (according to inside sources) and they clearly show how indebted she is to Goldman. She has had a 20+ year relationship with Goldman Sachs.

There has been a major political uprising in Germany. For the first time, the Green Party has beaten the establishment in Baden-Württemberg. I have been warning that Trump is not some freak show. This is a global uprising we are watching in politics as we head into  2017 – the year from political hell. We are, indeed, only four major elections away from perhaps the revision of NATO, the fall of the European Union, and the end of the socialist world order as we have known it. We have not just the U.S. election, but we also have Germany and France.

Then we have the British exit vote this June, which is actually the first. If Britain votes to leave then the EU is finished. If they vote to stay, Britain is finished and going down with the EU as the Muslim refugees pour in for free healthcare and welfare, and perhaps a few good looking girls as a bonus. This is like two guys walking in the field in the Rockies. Suddenly, they see a mountain lion. One quietly slips on his running shoes. The other looks at him and asks, “Do you really think you can outrun him?” His friend replies, “No. I just have to outrun you.”

Question: Hello Martin,

I saw a couple of days ago that Canada seems to have sold all its gold.

http://www.fin.gc.ca/n16/16-030-eng.asp

Is it just a way to find short-term easy money?

Or is it part of a global process to sell any tangible asset that the government could have ?

I personally don’t think this to be a smart move, as in my opinion a government should mix between tangible and non tangible assets. After all, they’re using OUR money…

Thank you.

REPLY: You have to look at this from their perspective. They are moving to electronic money. Gold is a throwback to an ancient economy to them. We should expect other countries to follow Canada. They see no use for gold, and they are dead broke. George III was broke and began charging people with any petty crime, right down to stealing an apple. He then used that as the excuse to sell citizens to farmers in the United States as an indentured servant for their time of sentence. The historian Charles Hibbert recorded the sentence handed down by a judge on this issue in his classic work “Roots of Evil”:

Because you have committed this offence, the sentence of the court is that you shall no longer be burdened with the support of your wife and family. You shall be immediately removed from a very bad climate and a country overburdened with people to one of the finest regions of the earth where demand for human labour is every hour increasing and where it is highly probable you may ultimately regain your character and improve your future. (Roots of Evil, 145)
