Submitted by Tyler Durden on 05/27/2016 - 17:57 According to Lewis Lukens, a veteran 27-year foreign service officer at the State Department who served as the deputy executive secretary Clinton did not use a password to protect her stand-alone computer from unwanted intruders such as hackers. During the deposition, Lukens volunteered that the stand-alone computer adjacent to her suite did not have a password for protection “She wouldn’t have had a password.” Bekesha asked, astonished, “So the computer would have just been open and be able to use without going through any security features?” “Correct,” Lukens replied.

Forget Chinese Commodity Speculators, Meet North America's "Moms-and-Millennials" Oil Day-Traders

Oregon Senator Warns - Government Is Dramatically Expanding Its Hacking & Surveillance Authority
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 05/27/2016 - 21:30 "These changes are a major policy shift that will impact Americans’ digital security, expand the government’s surveillance powers and pose serious Fourth Amendment questions. Part of the problem is the simple fact that both the American public and security experts know so little about how the government goes about hacking a computer to search it." By failing to act, Congress is once again demonstrating that it is not just useless, it’s also dangerously corrupt and incompetent.

Disillusioned Democrats & The Demise Of Democracy In America

Are we terminally incapable of acknowledging a fundamental truth: that democracy will never take hold until we change the undemocratic process that keep us in chains... and learn to govern ourselves, selflessly, for the welfare of all?

Negative interest rate policies elsewhere hit US Treasury yields
The side effects of Negative Interest Rate Policies in Europe and Japan — what we’ve come to call the NIRP absurdity — are becoming numerous and legendary, and they’re fanning out across the globe, far beyond the NIRP countries.
No one knows what the consequences will be down the line. No one has ever gone through this before. It’s all a huge experiment in market manipulation. We have seen crazy experiments before, like creating a credit bubble and a housing bubble in order to stimulate the economy following the 2001 recession in the US, which culminated with spectacular fireworks.
Not too long ago, economists believed that nominal negative interest rates couldn’t actually exist beyond very brief periods. They figured that you’d have to increase inflation and keep interest rates low but positive to get negative “real” interest rates, which might have a similar effect, that of “financial repression”: perverting the behavior of creditors and borrowers alike, and triggering a massive wealth transfer.

U.S. health officials on Thursday reported the first case in the
country of a patient with an infection resistant to all known
antibiotics, and expressed grave concern that the superbug could pose
serious danger for routine infections if it spreads.
“We risk being in a post-antibiotic world,” said Thomas Frieden, director of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, referring to the urinary tract infection of a 49-year-old Pennsylvania woman who had not traveled within the prior five months.
Frieden, speaking at a National Press Club luncheon in Washington, D.C., said the infection was not controlled even by colistin, an antibiotic that is reserved for use against “nightmare bacteria.”
The infection was reported Thursday in a study appearing in Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, a publication of the American Society for Microbiology. It said the superbug itself had first been infected with a tiny piece of DNA called a plasmid, which passed along a gene called mcr-1 that confers resistance to colistin.

In 1865 at the end of the US Civil War New York journalist Horace
Greeley popularized the expression, “”Go West, young man, and grow up
with the country.” Today, some 150 years later, as the colossal economy
of the United States of America sinks into obsolescence, outsourcing,
income depression, and staggering real unemployment, with many countries
of the European Union close to the same, the slogan should properly be
changed. “Go East, young man,” and grow up with the booming economies of
Eurasia, especially Russia and China. While NATO planes and warships
increasingly saber rattle both Russian and Chinese territories, the two
giants of Eurasia are forging relations closer than ever in their
history. Energy alliances are at the heart of the process.

Since May, 2014, China and Russia have agreed to staggeringly large energy deals that make China less vulnerable to any NATO or Mideast supply blackmail, and Russia to any Ukraine or EU energy blackmail.

The mainstream media mouthpieces for the establishment peddle false
narratives, disingenuous storylines, and outright propaganda to keep the
ignorant masses confused, oblivious to reality, misinformed, and
passively submissive to the opinions of highly paid “experts” and
captured fiscal authorities. The existing social order likes things just
as they are.
They reap ill-gotten riches, wield unchecked power, and control the minds of the masses. They are the invisible government consciously manipulating the minds, habits and opinions of the multitudes in order to dominate society, control the levers of government, and accumulate obscene levels of wealth through manipulation of the currency and domination of the banking and corporate interests.
One of the false narratives being flogged by the establishment propaganda peddlers is the mass retirement of Baby Boomers causing the plunge in the employment to population rate from 64.4% in 2000 to 59.7% today. They need to peddle this drivel, because the difference between these two rates amounts to 12 million missing jobs. The employment to population ratio is currently at 1984 levels. Any critical thinking person with basic math skills realizes the government reported unemployment rate of 5% is an Orwellian farce.

There is a big difference between “I can’t afford a generator” poor and
“we are splurging by adding cheese to Raman noodles for dinner” poor.
Too many people might not start prepping because looking at the cost of ‘recommended items’ can be intimidating. Regardless of your own economic status, lets get a discussion going about some of the things that ‘poor’ or low income people can do to start or continue prepping.
Some suggestions may be specific while others more general.
Here are a few ideas to get it started:
Acquire survival & preparedness knowledge (Library, Internet)
Research your area for foraging types of foods
Become proficient as a gardener (seeds are cheap)
Become proficient with food preservation (e.g. canning)
Save all plastic water, juice, pop bottles, etc and fill with water
Free 5-gallon buckets & lids at grocery stores, bakeries, donut shops

Will the Swiss Guarantee CHF 75,000 for Every Family?
In early June the Swiss will be called upon to make a historic decision. Switzerland is the first country worldwide to put the idea of an Unconditional Basic Income to a vote and the outcome of this referendum will set a strong precedent and establish a landmark in the evolution of this debate.
The Swiss Basic Income Initiative in a demonstration in front of parliament. As we have previously reported (see “Swiss Parliament Shoots Down Socialist Utopia” for details), Switzerland’s parliament has already rejected the idea, with even the socialists voting against it (proving that they are still in possession of most of their marbles and quite likely in possession of an abacus as well).
The Swiss public will have to approve or reject a change in the constitution that would allow for the introduction of an Unconditional Basic Income (UBI), or a preset, monthly minimum income to be paid out by the government to every adult and child in the country if their income falls below a specific threshold. Even though details of this proposal have been few and far between, the most commonly cited amount of this guaranteed income would be 2,500 Swiss Francs for adults and 625 francs for children.
