EU Parliament & How they Protect the Bankers

September 10, 2019

https://www.armstrongeconomics.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/Bloom-UKIP-on-Banking.mp4   A number of people have asked me to comment on Bloom’s speech on the floor of the European Parliament. He is incorrect in attributing the insolvency of the European banks to fractional banking. They have blown themselves up because of derivative exposure, not actual lending. The US banks survived and have prospered BECAUSE […]

September 3, 2019

QUESTION: Hi Martin, I’ve been a big fan of your blogs for all these years. May I ask if you have any recommendation of books or your previous blogs that can help us re-understand better the most important topic that impacts us and that is the understanding of the Cycles in our lives?

The Surrender of Liberty in the Name of Security

September 2, 2019

QUESTION: It seems that as we get closer to a change-over of economic systems that as a society we are more willing to give up our rights to the State. Is that part of a pattern during these types of events? Was it seen as Britain, Rome, and other countries lost power after their peaks? […]

Obama Buys $15 Million House

August 23, 2019

Barack and Michelle Obama are buying a nearly $15 million mansion on Martha’s Vineyard. They had rented it out in August from the Celtics co-owner Wyc Grousbeck, who has been trying to sell it for the past 4 years. What is fascinating is how Democrats always demonize the “rich” and then when they leave office, […]

The Deep State Reality

August 19, 2019

QUESTION: Dear Mr. Armstrong Isn’t the FBI a government agency? In this case, they are paid with “the people” tax money? Aren’t they supposed to be neutral, I mean, they should be “incorruptible”? They should not take a position for the left or the right. They should be there for “Justice”? Can you explain? Many […]

Chicago Trying to Takeover All Power

August 14, 2019

The environmentalists are working hard behind the curtain to eliminate fossil fuels by nationalizing private utilities. The Democratic Socialists on the Chicago City Council want to “municipalize” ComEd, which has a franchise agreement to deliver power that is due to be renewed. That agreement permits ComEd to operate in the city and went into effect […]

Did the Fed Begin Secret Bailouts in 2007 Before Anyone Knew of the Pending Crisis?

July 30, 2019

  When the GAO report came out on the Quantitative Easing by the Federal Reserve, it uncovered a secret $16 trillion feeding tube from the Fed structured as revolving, low-cost loans to any bank (foreign or domestic) teetering on the edge. Amazingly, the audit showed the Fed started the loans in December 2007 – long before […]

Is Google – not Russia – Manipulating US Elections?

July 28, 2019

  COMMENT: So Democrats and Republicans both believe that Americans are too stupid to make up their own minds about who to vote for is essentially the problem. They can be manipulated, indoctrinated, bullied and fooled. That sounds about right. They are educated but know nothing, and if they’re not educated they know even less. […]
