One of the easiest ways to get a good sense of how dumbed down and naive the general public has become is to note the striking resemblance between the financial media, trash TV (such as so-called "reality TV") and the so-called "alternative media." For instance, instead of airing credible experts with proven track records, the financial media most often features broken clock sales men who are nothing more than shills, idiots and/or sharks; often all three. Notably, these individuals are almost always Jewish. This latter point addresses another objective of the Jewish media which I will discuss later.  Indeed, many of the interviews you'll see on CNBC, FOX Business or Bloomberg TV seem to have been scripted by the same Hollywood producers who created reality TV shows such as "Th...

As we have discussed in he past, Robert Prechter is one of the doomsday clowns positioned by his Jewish buddies in the media as an "expert" despite being wrong time and time again. How can a man keep predicting a market collapse year after year when everything points to the contrary?  One thing I'm confident of. If you listen to Prechter you're probably going to lose your ass because he's a broken clock. People need to learn to distinguish between broken clock sales men who always pitch the same narrative versus real research analysts who know when to switch gears.   Most people do not understand this distinction so they have no idea what a real research analyst is because every single person constantly promoted by the media as an "expert" is a snake oil sales man. Don'...

As you watch this video, I want you to keep in mind that this is the guy the media has positioned as a credible expert for YOU, the audience. One of the easiest ways to get a good sense of how stupid and naive the general public has become is to note how close financial media resembles trash TV. For instance, instead of credible experts with proven track records of excellence, the financial media most often airs broken clock salesmen who are nothing more than con artists. But because the media claims these charlatans are "experts" all while lying about their track record, the audience goes along with these false claims as if they were true. The underlying problem is that people just haven't accepted the fact that the media not only has a LEGAL right to lie (you cannot...

Recently I spoke with Kevin MacDonald, Professor Emeritus of evolutionary psychology at CSULB (California State University at Long Beach). I hope you enjoy this interview.    You can learn more about Professor MacDonald, his books and publications by visiting his website (here). You can also learn more about current issues on race and culture by visiting the Occidental Observer.  Excerpts from the Occidental Observer Mission Statement "We are highly cognizant of the fact that many of the most strident critics of the legitimacy of white identity and interests have a strong sense of their own ethnic identity and interests. And they have a deep sense of the importance of preserving their people and culture. Non-Western peoples throughout the world cont...

“Regarding the Great Depression. You’re right, we did it. We’re very sorry. But thanks to you, we won’t do it again.” [1] That quote was taken from a speech made by then Board of Governors member Ben Bernanke in 2002 to the Federal Reserve. Unfortunately, Bernanke’s pledge has been broken. As clueless as Bernanke has been, if you follow what he says closely, on occasion you will see his own admission that the U.S. is either in a depression or is certainly headed for one.   For instance, on Tuesday November 30, 2010, as Bernanke attempted to defend his recent decision to buy $600 billion of U.S. Treasuries, he made ridiculous claims that this quantitative easing would lead to more jobs. He then used the often used scare tactic to justify this...

Gold bugs and dealers alike have pumped out so many misconceptions and flat out lies about gold, silver, and the economy that it would be impossible for me to set the story straight in a single article; that's saying a lot considering the fact that my articles tend to be rather lengthy. However, I have previously written several articles that address the majority of the most common of these myths and lies (check the end of this article for a partial list). If you have been sucked into the vortex of lies from these charlatans, you could stand to lose a HUGE amount of money over the next several years as the gold bull market comes to an end.  And if you really think gold will never again fall below $1000 as Marc Faber the gold-pumping clown has "guaranteed," I regret...

Although one could argue Peter Schiff has been focusing his marketing rants (i.e. when he is on TV and radio pretending to be some sort of economic and investment expert) on conspiracy wackos for a very long time, it’s now official...Peter Schiff has teamed up with conspiracy nut, liar, gold pumper and con man Alex Jones to deliver his delusional economics and broken clock sales pitch to the gullible fools who tune into Jones.  This pretty much puts the final nail in the coffin for anyone still naive enough to think Schiff had an ounce of credibility.   Of course, Jones' gullible, low-IQ nut job audience is too stupid to realize that Schiff refuses to acknowledge the US government's role in 9-11. Yet, these "9-11 truthers" as they refer to themselves compris...

I’ve already exposed Ron Paul as an agent of controlled opposition working for the Koch brothers. I’ve also previously exposed him as a proponent of the military-industrial complex. That’s right. If you think Paul’s so-called “anti-war" policy means an end to the military giants you haven't examined his list of campaign contributors. Defense giants funded Paul's campaign for years.  Finally, I’ve shown that Ron Paul is an absolute investment disaster. But that should come as no surprise to anyone who has heard some of the outlandish things he has said. Many of his economic ideas often cause sensible people to scratch their head in disbelief.  Every good salesman has a unique pitch. Ron Paul is no different. He has been cashing in on his pho...

If America ever expects to fix its broken healthcare system, all the problems must first be identified. Only then can a solution be engineered. While Obama's plan certainly provides no real solution, the current system is clearly broken and needs a radical overhaul. Perhaps you’ve been brainwashed by the talking heads, Washington liars and other hacks that have been paid off by the industry to make you think the healthcare system is just fine. If you already have not already figured it out, you can’t trust ANYTHING from the media, especially CNBC and FOX.  Do I need to name names? Virtually everyone in the media, from the talking head neo-cons (Limbaugh, Hannity, Levine, Savage, etc.) to the clowns on televised networks and those they interview – fa...

Published on July 16, 2011. Updated on July 18, 2011.   I have not yet had the time to address the latest clown out there, Porter Stansberry with his BS video being pumped on conspiracy radio shows and even being advertised on TV.  Here I will make some brief comments regarding this slimy moron. To be honest, I feel it beneath me to even discuss these clowns. I only do it to warn people who might be lured to their hypnotic marketing ads and ridiculous claims. First, Stansberry is perhaps amongst the worst of the marketing clowns. That would place him in the same ranks with Martin Weiss, Agora Financial, and many other guys who try to get you to hand over $5000 for a membership into their secret "alliance" or "society" of BS.  See...

The main stars of America's financial trash TV are broken clocks and contrarian indicators who deliver the same sales pitch day after day, week after week, year after year. That's what salesmen do after all.      Once they've been finally called out for being completely wrong for years, they fight back by changing their talking points to focus on trivial rants, such as when the Fed is going to taper or raise interest rates. And their cult member following always fall for this tactic. Keep in mind that these talking heads focus on this type of nonsense as a way to distract from their investment failures and lousy predictions.   Schiff couldn't even get this right. The guy is a complete failure, so why does the media promote him constantly?   On the t...

I began my mission helping investors steer clear of Wall Street because I learned firsthand how the game was played after having worked in the industry.  Thereafter, I learned how the media helps Wall Street after I was black balled by all media in 2006 and thereafter for trying to warn main street about what would become an unprecedented financial crisis in 2008.  My mission has been to help investors become more knowledgeable and successful by providing cutting-edge investment research as well as top-notch educational content. I think I've done quite well in that regard.  As a part of this mission, I have also spent a great deal of time and effort exposing the criminal activities of the financial media, as it works with Wall Street to deceive and defraud main str...

Over the years, the media has turned financial news and commentary into trash TV. Have you noticed that the clowns the media calls “experts” resemble many of the inept goofballs from one of the media’s other scams known as “reality TV?” 

In yet another attempt to encourage you to call out the hacks, I am announcing a contest. It's quite simple. All you have to do is submit the most ludicrous statement or prediction by anyone in the financial media, any of the so-called experts, officials in Washington, Wall Street, economists and so on, pertaining to the real estate market, the stock market, the economy, employment, healthcare, or anything else related.  The time should span 2006 to present. The best submission will win a free copy of America's Healthcare Solution.  Each individual can make only one submission containing up to five (5) quotes. In other words, you can only send one email, but it wan contain five (5) quotes, all from the same person, or from different individuals. You...

Jim Rogers has been praised as a top "commodities expert" by countless media outlets for several years. Indeed, Jim Rogers is a "legendary" investor according to the media. Despite the fact that Rogers has served as one of the best contrarian indicators in the world for the better part of the past two decades, the media continues to claim he is an investment "legend" without accurately discussing his track record.  In addition, I have never seen any concrete evidence that Jim Rogers is even a decent investor.  In fact, I've only seen evidence that indicates he's a terrible investor.  Premise: Jim Rogers is an investment "legend" because he was involved with George Soros' Quantum fund, which allegedly returned 4200 percent in less than ten years. But I argue th...

UPDATED info on Harry "Doomsday" Dent and his SHITTY track record (20014 - 2015): EXPOSED: More Doomsday Charlatans (Agora Financial Pt 1) Harry Dent, Wall Street Investment Bible and Brazilian Real Estate Moron of the Month: Harry Dent (Take 2) In the past, I have discussed the many ways the media deceives, spins and even lies about financial information as a way to please its financial sponsors, all while creating drama so as to captivate its sheep audience. The goal of the media is two-fold. First, the media has to establish a large audience because the size of the audience determines the amount they charge companies that pay for sponsorships and advertisements. Second, the media has to make sure to keep its corporate sponsors happy. This goes well-beyond airing t...
