Max Keiser is a brave and lonely soul who continues to warn about financial terrorism. He is not afraid to describe American debt as worth CCC in the ratings game. His talk is disappointingly disjointed perhaps because of the editing and translation in the background.
The release of anger in this speech represents what people in general think of international banking and international banks. When the judicial system does nothing about fraud committed by banks such as Goldman Sachs, then people get very emotional.
It is interesting to note that the lawyers in this meeting are planning to sue derivatives dealers and the government for fraud. Good luck with that!

Fraud*
According to the Collins English Dictionary 10th Edition fraud can be defined as: "deceit, trickery, sharp practice, or breach of confidence, perpetrated for profit or to gain some unfair or dishonest advantage".[1] In the broadest sense, a fraud is an intentional deception made for personal gain or to damage another individual; the related adjective is fraudulent. The specific legal definition varies by legal jurisdiction. Fraud is a crime, and also a civil law violation. Defrauding people or entities of money or valuables is a common purpose of fraud, but there have also been fraudulent "discoveries", e.g. in science, to gain prestige rather than immediate monetary gain

Made in U.S.A.: Wealth Inequality
July 15, 2011 (Mobile version)
Here's the Great Game: mask the nation's rising wealth inequality with Central State spending that keeps the debt-serfs passive--all funded by debt, of course.
2. Wealth destroys democracy and free markets when it buys the machinery of governance. Larry Ellison has made billions by developing and selling databases and business services. To the best of my knowledge, he spends his wealth on personal hobbies such as large homes and racing yachts. His lobbying efforts appear to be confined to yachting and the possible purchase of sports franchises. In other words, the political influence of his billions is localized and benign in terms of Federal policy decisions.
Compare that to the millions spent by the "too big to fail" banking industry to buy Congressional approval of their cartel's grip on the nation's throat: Buying Off Washington To Kill Financial "Reform".

We're all under some form of occupation:
Elizabeth Warren Out as Possible Head of Consumer Financial Protection Bureau
We have said for some time Warren was not going to get head the new consumer financial protection agency. Obama was not willing to ruffle the banks, and Geithner, who is is most powerful Cabinet member, would not stand for it). Nevertheless, we are disappointed by this outcome. And it seems a bit churlish for this news to be leaked the day after she ran the gauntlet with the House Oversight Panel. From Bloomberg:
President Barack Obama has chosen a candidate other than Elizabeth Warren as director of the new Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, according to a person briefed on the matter.
The president’s choice is a person who already works at the consumer agency, the person said today. Obama may make the nomination as soon as next week, another person briefed on the administration’s plans said.

Bernanke Employs a Modified 'Pump and Dump'
The Federal Reserve, for its part, has added to its own fine tradition. Before the crisis, the Fed used much of its credibility to "assure" markets that everything was fine, right up and into a full-blown panic. After the panic, the Fed lost still more credibility on assurances of monetary efficacy with regard to the recovery, yet no recovery exists. It proclaims a job well done in "saving" millions of jobs, to the amazement of any impartial observer.
Trillions of dollars have been used on price discovery, especially in the stock market, but 45 million people continue on food stamps and the average duration of unemployment is now twice the previous record. Banks are enjoying healthy profitability, assisted by loan loss accounting, at the same time withholding credit from all but the largest obligors. Individual American savers who are doing everything right are bearing the brunt of all this monetary success, as zero interest rates transfer money from them to the very banks that colluded in creating this disaster in the first place.

Listen to Rickards interview then read this:
Regulators Are Said to Weigh Softer Derivatives Rules
The commodities agency has held nearly 50 private meetings on the monopoly issue alone, hosting Wall Street titans like Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley. A group of regulators also traveled to New York this spring to tour some derivatives exchanges.
The proposals “may not sufficiently protect and promote competition in the industry,” Christine Varney, the Justice Department’s antitrust chief, said in a December letter to regulators. Ms. Varney, who will soon leave the government to join Cravath, Swaine & Moore, likened the situation to “three or five largest airlines controlling all landing rights at every U.S. airport.”
