We're all familiar with the term quantitative easing. This described as meaning, a monetary policy in which a central bank purchases government securities or other securities from the market in order to lower interest rates and increase the money supply. Well, that sounds reasonable, even beneficial. But unfortunately, that's not really the whole story. When QE was implemented, the purchasing power was weak, and both government and personal debt had become so great that further borrowing would not solve the problem. It would only postpone it, and, in the end, exacerbated. Effectively, QE is not a solution to an economic problem, it's a bonus of epic proportions, given to banks by governments at the expense of the taxpayer. But, of course, we shouldn't be surprised that governments have passed off a massive redistribution of wealth from the taxpayer to their pals in the banking sector with such clever terms. Depends of today have become extremely adept at creating euphemisms for their misdeeds, in order to pull the will over the eyes of the populace. At this point, we cannot turn on the daily news without being fed a full meal of carefully worded mumbo jumbo, designed to further overwhelm whatever small voices of truth may be out there. Let's put this in perspective for a moment. The four I continue the video, please give a like if you've learned something.

For millennia, political leaders have been in the practice of altering, confusing, and even obliterating the truth, when possible. And it's probably safe to say that, for as long as there have been media, there have been political leaders doing their best to control them. During times of war, political leaders have serially restricted the media from simply telling the truth. During the American Civil War, President Lincoln shut down some 300 newspapers and arrested some 14,000 journalists who had the audacity to contradict his statements to the public. As extreme as that may sound, this practice has been more the rule in history than the exception. In most countries, in most eras, some publications go against the official storyline and may very well pay a price for doing so. But other publications go along with the official storyline to a greater or lesser degree and are often rewarded for doing so. It should come as no surprise then, that media outlets often come to report the news in a less than accurate manner. Mark Twain is claimed to have said, if you don't read the newspaper, you're uninformed. If you do read the newspaper, you're misinformed. Quite so. Still, only 50 years ago, much of the then-free world enjoyed a relatively objective press. Even on television, reporters such as Walter Cronkite Huntley and Brinkley etc., presented the news in a bland manner. It wasn't very exciting, but at least it was relatively balanced, and to this day, most people who were around then still have no idea, as two weather reporters like Walter Cronkite were liberal or conservative. Although he was a committed Democrat, he never allowed that to significantly color his reporting. But today, we have a very different corporate structure as regards the media. The same six corporations hold the controlling interest of over 80% of the media, and those same corporations also own a controlling interest in the military industrial complex, Wall Street, the major banks, big pharma, etc. What we're witnessing today is, media having been transformed into something more akin to a three-ring circus than journalism of old. This is no accident. The present travesty, that is the 21st century media, is journalism in name only. So, why should this be so? Well, as it happens, people tend not to like governments dominating their lives, simple as that. And yet, the primary objective of any government is to increase its eyes and power, as rapidly as the populace will tolerate it. The only reason that they rarely do this quickly, is that they can't get away with it. Like boiling a frog, it takes time to lol the populace into submission, bit by bit. Once having had enough time to do so, there comes a point at which the government becomes woefully top-heavy, as well as unworkably autocratic. At such times, all that's necessary to make people rebel, as an economic crisis. Such is the case in much of the world today, the EU, the US, Canada, etc. Even in their arrogance, the powers that be, have to be aware, that they're right at the tipping point. An economic crisis would almost certainly push the situation over the edge. On truth threatens to undermine machinations for self-aggrandizement, individuals tend to obfuscate in order to delay the inevitable fallout. Governments are no different. So it was that, in 1999, the largest bank centred into a massive lending scam that would most certainly collapse within a decade. However, before putting the scam in place, they arranged for a bailout by the government, which would effectively pass the bill to the taxpayer, while the banks themselves simply increased their own wealth massively. Of course, QE, as massive as it was, was a mere band-aid solution. All those involved, big business and the government, understood that it would hang like a sort of damacles over the economy, and to let inevitably came crashing down, a fate far worse than if QE had never been implemented. And so, for those entities to have invested into the domination of the media was, in fact, essential. But they not done so, it's entirely likely that, with a free press, the man on the street would, by now, have figured out that he'd been hoodwinked. Thus do we see the journalistic equivalent of quantitative brainwashing, in which the inevitable realization is delayed for as long as possible. And, in order to make sure that the public do not figure out what's been done to them, the news reporting becomes our well-earned and its endless repetition of a false narrative. It is, however, true, that you can't fool all of the people all of the time. Eventually, the band-aid peels back to reveal an infection that's far beyond what had been generally perceived. It then falls away in layers, as increasing numbers of people become aware that they've been scammed, that the media is entirely corrupt, and that the media's owners, big business, have, with the enthusiastic compliance of the government, rob them on a wholesale basis. Historically, that's when the jig is up. What happens then, is a matter of historic record. Nope. It's clear, the Fed's money printing is about to go into overdrive. The Fed has already pumped enormous distortions into the economy, and inflated in everything bubble. The next round of money printing, is likely to bring the situation to a breaking point. We're on the cusp of a global economic crisis that could eclipse anything we've seen before. Comment below with more topic ideas for me to discuss.
