The quest to eliminate cash is all about Negative Interest Rates for as long as cash exists, people would withdraw their money from banks and stuff it in a shoe-box. They use Japan as the argument that virtual zero interest rates for 20 years failed to produce inflation. Hence, their reasoning is you must go […]

As Secretary of State, most people think it is only diplomatic. The Secretary of State is also in charge of selling arms to foreign governments. Hillary Clinton was in charge of rejecting or approving weapons deals. It is no coincidence that her department approved $165 billion worth of commercial arms sales; the countries she approved were Clinton Foundation […]

Of course, […]
