We have to play in the global economy

It's a matter of reality says PM Harper in his closing comments at the G20 2010. We have to play in the global econony and forego nationalism.

This is a fact of living in the global economic arena. If a nation is to survive as a trader in this world of product, idea, and money or financial asset exchange then the world of trade inside a country is secondary to the trades and associations made of the world market.

This is similar to what we said in an earlier post when we looked at global capitalism. However we went one step further to suggest that while foregoing national sovereignty in trade and economic freedom the people of individual nations are also electing Prime Ministers or Presidents only to serve as political leaders who serve the people of a sovereign flag as puppets and that the real powers that be on the global markets are leading even the elect under a flag that we do not know what colors are on it or what logo is on it.

We suspect that the global leading group ignores sovereign flags and prefers to see the global capitalist movement as a global corporate and capitalist movement.

Goodbye mom and pop.

2012 is an end of the world folks. It is an end of the world as we knew it.

Not many people know who Mother Shipton was but she predicted and end of the world which would occur in the 1800 and the Industrial revolution proved her correct. Ever since common people have called her a hoax and an old hag who may or may not have existed. She did exist and she lived in a time when tea parties were a big issue as they are today.

We have to play in a the global economy but do we know who our real leaders are ?

Interestingly President Obama of the US agreed that the GDP to National Debt odds need to be contended but it was almost an agreement made in the same sentence as " while we print more money which will be paid to the corporates in the end in order to keep the global machine from falling apart at the spokes". Or let's keep greasing the monkey until we have a.............

Implications of a bank tax

What are the implications of a bank tax ?

PM Harper at the G20 in June 2010 says that Canada's banks should not be bothered with a bank tax. He reasons that Canadian financial institutions have not been burdoned by the leverage problems of other nations. For example Canadian banks do not sell their debt to other institutions like other nations banks do and when the financial crisis of the 2007 2009 hit financial players like Lehman and others the Canadian financial institutions remained a safe haven for investment both internally and globally.

Meanwhile other nations such as the US saw themselves in a web where they needed to protect their financial institutions by initiating stimulus packages. Billions of dollars were allocated by governments and by the people who are in the end the government; the taxpayer. President Obama is now stating that there is a means of recovering some of the taxpayers investment and one method is by taxing the banking industry.

The implications of a bank tax is to return some of the bailout package burden back to its rightful owner which is in the end the tax payer.

This was an issue at the G20 summit in Toronto in June 2010. Harper put forth his proposal that such a bank tax is not reasonable or justifiable globally but other nations counteracted the Canadian Prime Ministers concerns.

To US President Obama coordinating global financial reform and avoiding further global financial chaos meant forwarding the concept of such a bank tax on any nation that sees itself throwing countless new fiat dollars towards securing a global financial system that may or may not be damaged beyond repair.

The Rage of Clac

The Rage of Clac is the title we use to introduce this Canadian protest group and it's allies.

RAGE and CLAC or CLAC2010 are acronyms.

CLAC in its long form is "La Convergence des Luttes AntiCapitalistes the Montreal and there slogan of protest for the Group of Twenty June 2010 summit in Toronto Canada is "La guerre contre le G20" or something of that nature.

RAGE in its long form is Regroupement anti G20 Etudiant.

CLAC and RAGE translate loosely to the english form of Convergence of Anti Capitalist Struggles 2010 and Student anti G20 coalition.

This or these groups mobilize themselves from a base in Quebec towards Toronto and the G20 summit base.

What is the mission of the Rage of Clac.

Amongst other things the protest against the exploitation of the poor by the capitalist rich who are emerging globally and who are making middle class existence ever more difficult. In a sense the cause of the Rage of Clac is to raise consciousness the public both in Canada and globally about the true powers that be.

RAGE and CLAC are two different groups. Like other protestors such has the Black Bloc, the RAGE and CLAC groups are being met by the police forces that are arresting anyone who is considered a threat to Torontonians or to the international gathering of hosts who are meeting at G20.

Social changes are under way.

2012 is about social change on a massive scale say some forward minded people.

Social changes are under way.

Looking at the rioting in Toronto, Canada on this weekend of June 2010 when the Group of Twenty or G20 are meeting behind 3 kms of security fencing and where 1 billion dollars of tax payer money is going to secure the parameters of the meeting rooms where world leaders are debating the faith of tomorrows world one gets a taste of these potential massive social changes.

Is it related to 2012 prophecy ? Probably or likely not.



Social changes are under way. Naomi Klein in Logo takes of position on what and how globalization is branding us for the future.

Some rioters or protestors are calling the police force NAZI agents which could be about as false a statement as could be imparted to those who watch these public demonstrations playing on the streets of Toronto.

What's a NAZI ?

Nazism is a national system and the term NAZI is made famous by the National Socialist German Workers Party founded in 1919. This NAZI party became the law in Germany in 1933 under the leadership of Adolf Hitler.

But National Socialism and these types of parties exist elsewhere in the world.

However to say that G20 issues revolve around Nationalism is a farce. The real issue in Toronto this week is GLOBALIZATION and not NATIONALISM. The real issue faced by the world as we watch the riots playing out in Toronto is the supply and demand chain which is responsible for sustaining a global economy that is able to make the world a better place for all earthlings.

The gathering of hosts is about other things than the global economy and economic recovery. It is the success of putting the world economies in a shape good enough to make the world a place where children born yesterday and children born tomorrow can have food on their plate and shelter over their heads on a daily basis in the future.

The leaders who meet at the G20 are not Nationalists or if they are then the NAZI issue is well shadowed by the issue of globalization.

We wrote about Jaggi Singh in a recent post and we wrote about the Tactics of the Black Bloc in another.

The Canadian host, PM Harper has gone on to call these anarchists who use Black Bloc tactics such as burning cop cars THUGS.

The media has spread the Prime Ministers message far and wide like good sheeps.

Meanwhile the globalization issue of supply and demand has received very little mainstream media.

We are not dealing with Nazism here. We are however dealing with Globalization and the main players in this end game are not necessarily the global political masters who are meeting in Toronto. Sure they play a role in how much fiat or new paper money goes into the financial system in order to stimulate the economy through government sponsored jobs. This includes 1 billion dollars used to pay police and other security agencies to protect society from THUGS.

The idea behind printing money on a massive scale is to stimulate the private sector to create jobs. But who is the private sector. Increasingly these private sector capitalists are Corporations. The Corporate issue and the shrinking of the middle class is the G20 issue and it isn't done under the flag of NAZISM or the flag of a single nation bent on gaining a world advantage.

The leaders meeting at the G20 in Toronto may be nothing more than puppets to the Capitalist Corporates who indeed may create jobs at the end of the day but these jobs will no doubt be able to sustain allot of lower middle class jobs or even high poverty level jobs.

The Capitalist Corporates care little about National Flags. These giants of industry and business fly a global flag and care little for National issues.

Jaggi Singh is considered a leading anti globalization protestor however we have heard nothing of him during this June 2010 G20 summit in Toronto.
