Taxation is servicing the debt and we are bought and sold as collateral.The average Serf/Slave is calculated to generate X amount of income to service debt during its working life.

Except, and even Marxists recognize this, in the capitalist economy, workers are formally free. I could, if I so wished, go and live in any country that will have me and pay my taxes there instead, or live in an offshore tax haven. There are limits to the extent I can literally be bought and sold - all any lender has a stake in is any future tax revenues that can be extracted from me so long as I choose to live in Britain and not elsewhere.





Thats true in a way as you are not a prisoner of the UK but it doesnt really make any diiference if you moved and paid tax in any Western/developed nation as its all interconnected.

George Osborne is just doing what he is told to do by the central bankers who control the fiscal policy of every nation that was sold out to the G20.

You let George Osborne off too lightly. You make it sound as if the Tories didn't want to cut public spending for reasons that are predominantly ideological. The current financial troubles have provided the Tories the excuse they needed to bring in a whole raft of regressive policy measures, including completely doing away with council housing as we know it. Thre are no shadowy puppet masters making them do that - it's what they Tories wanted to do.

Furthermore, you make it sound as if the Tories have no choice in the matter. If George Osborne is doing what the central bankers told him to do, then why is George Osborne doing anything different to what Labour would be doing or the Liberal Democrats wanted to do? Neither Labour nor the Liberal Democrats had plans for the swingeing cuts the coalition has implemented.



Please do not mistake my comment as being an apology for Conservative spending cuts or Conservatives in general because it wasnt.The Conservatives are allowed a degree of autonomy to decide where the spending cuts will come from but ultimately if they are told there have to be spending cuts there will be spending cuts.Look at the spending cuts that are imposed on other nations that are traditionally more Socialist in nature like France.

The fiscal policies do come from the central bankers and i am not about to second guess what Labour or LibDems would have done but its possible that Labour would have continued spending and spending and spending with more Quantitative Easing which would have made this country even more worse off than it is already or they might have also cut spending because they were told to.Both are bad but more QE means more debt and if it continues like it is in the US then Bankuptcy is virtually guaranteed but the plan is not to totally bankrupt the UK.The plan is to take European countries to the edge of Bankruptcy and then reap the interest payments on the massive debt.There is no sense in totally destroying the UK Corporation cash cow.



Its quite possible that Labour would have promised no spending cuts or maybe they did.I cant remember what they promised but in any case their plans might well have changed once elected.Labour would have had to borrow more money to continue spending but the problem was that Labour despite 11 yrs of economic boom still managed to virtually bankrupt the nation instead of storing up a surplus of funds instead of a defecit which is what we got as Labour wasted all that cash*.The one thing i am glad about with Tory spending cuts is the scrapping of over 300 quangos that are serviced by taxpayers.

Why cant payments to the EU be suspended until this country is out of debt ?

Thats not politicking as its just fact and i havent got any time for tory/Labour mud slinging.

The frustrating thing is that this whole economic disaster is so easy to fix. The politicians refuse to listen, the public refuses to think about it and all the while those thieving bastard bankers continue to steal all the value from our society - just like they stole from our parents and grandparents and just as they intend to continue stealing from our children and grandchildren
until one day we wake up homeless, penniless and futureless in the country our forefathers built for us and our politicians gave away.

I weep for us all, I truly do.

Not one of these government cuts or austerity measures is necessary. NOT ONE. This country could be completely out of debt in under a year. Please, please, please watch "The Money Masters" documentary I mentioned in an earlier post - it'll take a couple of hours of your life and I promise that it will open your eyes to a world of possibilities.

No more denial.

QuoteThis time around, Karl Urban (you may know him as Bones from the new STAR TREK) will take on the title role, and Olivia Thirlby (Ellen Page's sardonic friend in JUNO) as his trainee/love interest.

"Love interest?" :-\

That kiss with Hershey in the Stallone movie has a lot to answer for and is still casting its ugly shadow over people's expectations of the new film. I suspect that for people who are only familiar with Dredd through the previous movie, "love interest" is exactly what they'll expect when they see Dredd with a new female partner on screen.

I think the Hollywood News are ass-uming that there will be a love interest in this film but the makers of the film might decide that there has to be a love interest so the film has a broader appeal or some stupid crap like that

I don't get it. I'm not an economist. But presumably the point is that if you create new money someone has to underwrite the value of that money. If a government just started issuing more money it would devalue the currency, because it has nothing to back up that printed money with. Presumably the purpose of issuing bonds and borrowing the money (i.e. getting a third party to underwrite the value of it, and paying them back with interest) is that the third party has to be good for that money in a way that the government isn't or it wouldn't have to be borrowing it in the first place.

We underwrite the cash and then some which is why we are classified as collateral.We are bought and sold as collateral due to the fact we generate the interest on the cash   that is backed by nothing so in effect we are what is backing the cash.Taxation is servicing the debt and we are bought and sold as collateral.The average Serf/Slave is calculated to generate X amount of income to service debt during its working life.

Its the Slave/Serf standard.


If the FEDRES just starts printing more money then it devalues the currency and wether it is backed by anything or not makes no difference.

George Osborne is just doing what he is told to do by the central bankers who control the fiscal policy of every nation that was sold out to the G20.The UK Govt doesnt have the final say on fiscal policy and all the austerity measures are straight from the central bankers.This is what happens when your elected govt doesnt represent you.

Its all about centralisation and consolidation of control of the economy.

FEDRES dumps/injects 2 trillion into the US economy in return for 2 Trillions worth of US Treasury bonds.

I cut and pasted this from elsewhere as i am not typing all that again as i have a headache.

The FEDRES is literally buying/stealing the US by buying Treasury bonds out of money that it costs them next to nothing to print so its a means of taking over as the offshore bankers like Rothschilds openly state that Govt Treasury bonds are the safest form of investment because when the nation is completely bankrupt they get to own everything as they will take everything as collateral when the treasury cant pay the interest on the Treasury Bonds at the end of their life which could be 30 years but they could cash them sooner than that.There may not be any need to cash them as being the majority shareholder is what they are interested in as that means ownership and control.They dont need to cash the bonds as they dont need the cash as its not their main interest but rather a means to an end.

Rothschilds are the largest holder of UK Treasury bonds and the US is next......

So if the privately owned Fed buy 2 trillions worth of US Treasury bonds they will become the largest majority holder of US Treasuries.

We are in effect paying the FED to do this as every FEDRES note is chargeable to the taxpayer or everyone through indirect means so this way they get to own as well as create debt and interest.

Absolutely f---ing incredible blatant criminality and there will be more to follow........

Its nothing more than a massive asset seizing/stripping exercise because their plan is to totally destroy the US and its economy because what appears to be injecting cash into the economy is actually theft if you understand what is going on.Now the banks have been bailed out and the cash moved offshore the FED is now closing in on the US itself by purchasing US treasury bonds.The way i see it is the economy wont totally implode just yet as its in their interests to keep it on a knife edge so it can justify dumping more cash into the economy in return for more Treasury bonds and when they have bought as many as they require then the economy will totally collapse.

When this happens they will have to pay off with interest the other holders of Treasury bonds as they will be the majority shareholder in the US Corporation and the takeover will be complete.They will have stolen the US right in front of everyone.Paying off China is preferable to conflict with China unless its a war that they want as war is profitable after all but i dont see China thinking that 887 billion USD plus interest is worth a conflict.

Brazil for example holds 170 billion USD worth of treasury bonds so they can pay them off easily.Its not difficult to pay off anyone if you print cash out of nothing.

Inflation is a weapon that is used against everyone as it drives down your spending power and add that to the virtually zero percent interest rates they offer everyone.They just want everyone to be bankrupt serfs.

Say hello to 21st century high tec Neo-Feudalism.

They are stealing our future.

We have to take it back.

This isnt just criminal.Its diabolical.

The b on my keyboard seems not to want to work on the average touch. I have to keep backtracking and adding in all the b's after the fact with sharp jabs.

And yes, I had to do it for two of them in this post.

I have the exact same problem with the shift key or whatever its called on a Mac keyboard when you type in capitals.When i am typing a lot [it just did it again with that W] it happens over and over again resulting in lots of backtracking and corrections and i have actually got past the point of finding it annoying but it still irritates.

The problem is the key is oversized in comparison to the rubber pressure thing under the key as its immediately central with nothing to the left and right so if you dont press the key in the centre every time it misses and it happens a lot of i am typing thousands of words.

I dont get why this problem wasnt obvious to Apple.

Cheers :) Your sketch started me off thinking what an old man would look like after a long day beating up thugs. And I reasoned that he might be follicly challenged if his helmet was left in for thirty years...

I have, myself, pondered the likely outcome of decades of helmet friction.

That might be a bit of a sore point.

The £12 tickets had already been snapped up when I went to arrange my xmas visit to my ancestral homelands... grrrrr

I always get caught out like that because i am not super organised and together like all these early birds that know what they are doing weeks and weeks and weeks and weeks ahead so i always pay the full fare.

People who snap up tickets in advance are annoying.

Thanks chaps, likey will slap a bit more paint on old baldy. Aso working on a larger 2000AD themed peice, a couple of snapshots below, gonna paint it up I think.





I have no idea how you do it but i love the cross hatching effect on your pics.Its a really interesting effect.Its also good to see someone else working in BW instead of color.

Good work but JD has a look of a Sov-Block judge.

If you use software to get the effects you do then dont even bother explaining it to me as i dont use any software at all and i wont have a clue what you are talking about as i know nothing about it.

Personalised number plates.They are just a way of advertising that the driver of the car is a Twat and a jumped up nobody trying to be somebody.

Oh look the 5 looks like an S !

Everybody look at me ! I have an expensive car with a personalised number plate ! I am important !!

The recession has bitten deep enough for my liking and its not putting a stop to enough of that nonsense.

Not every games makes its money back like films.

The best games are playable multiple times after completion just like the best films are watchable over and over again.

Games have only one way of making money wheras films can be sold in different formats and even downloads as well as box office which might have something to do with DVDs/films being cheap in comparison to games.
