Fed Has Bought More U.S. Gov’t Debt In 2013 Than Treasury Issued

Meaning more people are selling than buying U.S. debt on the free market - If this continues it is a major turning point in U.S. history

I would have to consider revenue flows to confirm that view RC. For what we have seen to date I have to stay nuetral on growth
as we have seen. My window view is approaching soon but as we do here we trade our own acounts. Some good views are including
now what for some? Kinda the point we have viewed since dec1 note. Choppy and event pockets sideways as we go for now.
Goods and services are up on cost basis so revenue stealth tax "theft" assures the repressionary charade moves ahead.
It was not missed the market high's and the nominal value of the two periods as warned.
I guess many are shell shocked from the last decimation, as they should be from the execution's of the captives also utilized
as "canned goods" in the coruption chain.
I would convey over the the five year averages of there acounts they just left the red in amount but inflationary
facts have crucified them from the theft.

Is this the value of our existence
Should we proclaim with such persistence
Our destiny relies on conscience
Red or blue, what's the difference

Cheap faith has a price as we have been warned.

You have heard that the ancients were told, "You shall not commit murder" and "Whoever commits murder shall be liable to the court."
But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother shall be guilty before the court; and whoever says to his brother, "You good-for-nothing," shall be guilty before the supreme court; and whoever says, "You fool," shall be guilty enough to go into the fiery hell.

“I discovered later, and I'm still discovering right up to this moment, that is it only by living completely in this world that one learns to have faith. By this-worldliness I mean living unreservedly in life's duties, problems, successes and failures. In so doing we throw ourselves completely into the arms of God, taking seriously, not our own sufferings, but those of God in the world. That, I think, is faith.”
― Dietrich Bonhoeffer

Let me illustrate what Amos might sound like addressing the United States within its international scene by Gene Marshall:

Here is the SPEECH of that Infinite Silence which is the Source of all reality and the Truth for all humanity.
For three evils and for four of the terrorist networks of global scope, I will not withhold my wrath. For they have taken the lives of innocent men, women, and children; bombed embassies and a docked ship; and flown commercial airliners into occupied buildings. Therefore, I will turn all the nations of the planet against them, I will hound them and chase them until their networks are broken to pieces, their training camps are laid waste, and their bank accounts emptied. Suicide terrorism shall become the butt of jokes about moronic behavior. This is the SPEECH of the Infinite Silence.
For three evils and for four of the Taliban, I will not withhold my wrath. For they have turned their women into caged animals, their men into frightened robots, and a religion of peace into a love of war. Therefore, their rule shall be wiped off the face of the earth, their support of terrorism shall be ended, their teachings scorned, and their rigid customs laughed into oblivion. This is the SPEECH of the Infinite Silence.
For three evils and for four of the United States of America, I will not withhold my wrath. For decade after decade they have assisted in the overthrow of legitimate and popularly selected national leaders, replacing them with dictatorial thugs who were willing to do the bidding of greedy corporations. In the pursuit of these ends, they have directly or indirectly caused the deaths of millions of innocent men, women, and children. They have sapped wealth from the poorer nations to engorge their billionaires and indulge their citizens in silly purchases. They have spent billions on costly wars to preserve their oil addiction and their delusions of absolute safety while offering a pittance to assist in the curtailment of an AIDS epidemic in Africa that creates millions of orphans, destabilizes whole nations, and threatens the health of all humanity. They likewise neglect to strongly support the stabilization of the human population, the stabilization of the atmosphere, reversing the depletion of fresh water, ending the improper cutting of forests, reversing the erosion of cropland, saving our last coral reef communities, the preservation of species diversity, and other primal emergencies of our inherited fluorescence of life on this planet. Yes, and this nation has even used moderate and freedom-loving Afghan people to fight the Russians and then abandoned them when their cold war with Russia was over. They trained Afghan terrorists to fight their wars and then abandoned this war-torn and chaotic nation to the worst elements of its population. These dastardly deeds they have done in the pious name of national self-interest, sweeping all consciousness of their own selfishness and grim evil under the rug of patriotic songs and waving flags. They have even presumed to parade themselves as a nation who trusts in God.
Therefore, I will continue to assault this people with grim disasters. I will increase the anger felt against them in hopeless, poverty stricken places. Not only will there be further terrorism, but even the oceans will rise and drown their coastal cities. The weather patterns will change and turn their croplands into deserts. I will push their economy into the worst recession it has ever known. I will bog down their military in futile wars that will make Vietnam look like a picnic. I will expand chaos until they turn and listen to me. This is the SPEECH of the Infinite Silence.
So, U. S. of A., do you indeed long for the end of evil, for the day of justice all across the Earth? What will that day look like for you?
It will be darkness, not light. It will be as when a man runs from a lion and a bear meets him, or turns into a house and leans his hand on the wall and a snake bites him.
For you, the day of justice will indeed be darkness and not light, a day of gloom with no dawn.
I hate, I spurn your prayer days and your flag-waving ceremonies. Spare me the noise of your patriotic songs. I cannot endure another verse of "America the Beautiful."

But let justice roll down like waters, and righteousness like an ever flowing stream. (a paraphrase of part of Amos 1:3-5:24)

We covered Syria plight already, as it was already written.

This is the time of year when tax revenues are high.

And it is just one month.

But the rate of purchase by the Fed is over 600 Billion a year, if that truly was all Treasury debt, and not mostly MBS, that is a substantial increase.

If, on the other hand, all increases in total U.S. Government public traded debt are, over the next few years being absorbed with printed money from the FED, that would be historic.

And things would be moving at warp speed compared to what I expected.

The biggest error in reported EPS is due to the wrong measurement of stock options. Without making any adjustments here, this process will include the cost of options compensation within Comprehensive Profit. But the effect will be hazzy since it only get recognized when the options are exercised. You can fine tune the effects by making accruals each year for the options changing value. I call it the loot and scoot they call comprehensive.

And that, ladies and gents of Caracas, is how you just lost 46% of your purchasing power, unless of course your fiat was in gold and silver, which just jumped by about 46%. t/y t
Iran peg, NAM is an international organization with 120 member states, almost two third of the members of the United Nations General Assembly.

You have to be brain dead to not see whats up Democrats. For or against never left the stage guys. H, I assumed zone SDR by 2015 from the stanford papers and flare up for some specifics we threaded. I was not to far off on dec1 thought on events and our pocket thoughts here. This stems from what I noted with you guys with lily ands other threads.

NAM’s significance is also well understood and recognised by the powers that be. Interestingly, in 2003 the highly pro-Western United National Front (UNF) government mooted the formation of a group to counter NAM. The proposition, which never materialised due to a change of government, was revealed by whistle-blower WikiLeaks in exposing a confidential cable sent by the then US Ambassador Ashley Willis on 29 May 2003. http://dbsjeyaraj.com/dbsj/

Obama delays starting Air Craft Carrier refueling - hurting military readiness.


The Obama administration has elected to delay starting Nuclear Aircraft Carrier refueling ( which is already budgeted for ), blaming budget uncertainty ( about future budgets ) for the decision.

While Obama could have chosen to go ahead and start this critical path refueling operation, and trust that he could ( in the event sequestration is not avoided ) continue refueling by executive order, or by special purpose legislation, Obama elected instead to delay this critical refueling operation.

This one time decision will permanently reduce U.S. readiness to fight a war in the months and years to come, regardless of what now happens with sequestration.
From the below linked article wrote:
...
Rep. Forbes ... chairman of the House Armed Services Seapower subcommittee released a statement ...
Forbes called the delay, “another example of how these reckless and irresponsible defense cuts in Washington ( by the executive branch of the government ) will have a long-term impact on the Navy’s ability to perform its missions. Not only will the Lincoln be delayed in returning to the Fleet, but this decision will also affect the USS Enterprise (CVN-65) defueling, the USS George Washington (CVN-73) RCOH, and future carrier readiness.”
...
The move by the navy is the second this week involving funding for carriers. On Wednesday it announced it would delay the deployment of the USS Harry S. Truman (CVN-75) to the Middle East ... bringing the total number of carriers in U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) to one
...
“Canceling and deferring maintenance creates a significant backlog of deferred maintenance and affects future year schedules and cost, as well as future readiness,” said Lt. Courtney Hillson, a Navy spokesperson.

As shown by the above post, Obama is beginning to use the threat of future budget uncertainty, as an excuse not to spend already budgeted money, in such a way, that military capability that has already been paid for is permanently reduced.

The U.S. executive branch will always have a choice as to where to spend the over 90% of the Budget Spending not under threat from sequestration.

By consciously choosing to selectively fail to fund maintenance items that can NOT be funded later, Obama is consciously electing to permanently downsize the U.S. military capabilities, when such downsizing would not have occured without he, Obama, withholding already budgeted money to do so.

Obama's excuse for withholding already budgeted money, is that he, Obama, might elect in the future, to not spend part of the 90% of the planned spending not threatened by sequestration on a critical maintenance need.

This is either pure politics, a clear intent to irrevocably, and without input from the elected representatives of the American people, permanently cripple the military capabilities the American people have already paid for, or both.
