    Is Silicon Valley a Systemic Risk?


    Treasury decides to treat venture capitalists like hedge funds. :eek:


    The Obama administration wants to regulate venture capital firms to prevent systemic risks. Silicon Valley residents are scratching their heads and asking: What risks? The rest of us should ask why Washington is targeting a jewel of the American economy that had nothing to do with the housing bubble.

    LOL, they must not have heard of operation “Clean Up The Rock.”

    In other words, they have not heard about operation- depopulate the planet.

    Here are some examples of interrelated actions and events that only the Master Planners know about and those of us that do not agree with them:


    UBS in Tax Scandal


    Prosper.com Shutdown by SEC


    U.S. GOVERNMENT SEIZES E-GOLD ACCOUNTS

    How Uncle Sam Killed The Liberty Dollar


    Tax havens may find days of banking on secrecy are numbered

    If you are a producer of wealth that they cannot control, you are a threat and will be shut down.

    Putin fails to get the memo on natality, and he seems to like Russia too much.

        There really isn't any escape -- except if you're Amish.

          Not so sure about there being no escape, if you know you are to be slaughtered, would you fight back?

          Here is someone from Iran that is on track to figure it out:

          The war on Terra
          By Hamid Golpira

          What is the war on terror all about anyway?

          Every time a military operation is carried out that leaves scores of children and other civilians dead but fails to hit the professed targets, the self-proclaimed pundits say it is another indication that the war on terror is a bungled, inefficient campaign.

          But is it an inefficient war on terror or a very efficient war on Terra?

          Terra is Latin for Earth. Terran and Earther are the correct terms for a person from Earth. Never call yourself an Earthling. When you use the word Earthling, you disempower yourself. Earthling is a diminutive like sapling or duckling. Earthling actually means “little Earth person” -- which is how the global ruling class views the majority of the people of Earth.

          And the powers that be are actually implementing a global depopulation program to eradicate many of the little Earth people. However, some will be allowed to live a marginalized existence.

          The masses that are deemed to be useful workers -– as opposed to useless eaters -- are being reduced to serfdom. Globalization is actually global pauperization. The current global economic meltdown, which is destroying the middle class, is a part of this plan.

          This is the war on Terra.

          Why do 18,000 children starve to death every day, even though there is enough food to feed everyone on the planet and end famine?

          Why has the HIV/AIDS epidemic never been properly addressed?

          Why are mutagenic depleted uranium weapons being used on battlefields from Iraq to Afghanistan?

          Why are there so many seemingly senseless wars, which have left hundreds of thousands, and sometimes millions, of people dead?

          Is it all an accident?

          Is it all just the result of the global haves’ indifference to the plight of the global have-nots?

          Is it just due to the incompetence of the United Nations, the major powers, and multinational corporations?

          Or is it deliberate?

          In his book Golistan, the Iranian poet Saadi wrote:

          All Adam’s children are limbs of one body, created from one essence.

          If fate brings suffering to one limb, the others cannot remain at rest.

          Those who do not feel the pain of others, do not deserve to be called human.

          And Saadi’s words still ring true.

          To truly be a human, one must stand up for the rights of all humanity.

          And the war on Terra is a war on humanity. The war on Terra is a war on us.

          So let’s stand up for our human rights, before the war on Terra turns our planet into a dystopian wasteland.
