THE FIGHT FOR CONTROL OF [[[ THE WORLD'S WEALTH ]]] IS BETWEEN MERCHANTS AND ROYALTY
The very essence of the banking system. To make us all slaves to debt. Without our dollars, without our spending power, the whole system grinds to a halt - since there is no more middle class there is only the 1% vs. 99%.

THE FLAW
"Gweilo" (Cantonese slang for "white devil") bankers have carte blanche to do largely as they please.
5/26/14 Thomas Piketty "the central contradiction of capitalism"
basically says that because the rate of return on capital, which he calls "r", is typically bigger than the overall rate of growth of the economy, which he calls "g", over time the share of national income going to owners of capital will increase, leading to lower shares going to labor, leading to greater inequality. Capitalism doesn't really work, because the 1% won't allow it. This site does not endorse Communism which does not work, Russia and China are both examples of that.
The US government does not represent the interests of the majority of the country's citizens, but is instead ruled by those of the rich and powerful. Study concludes Report by researchers from Princeton and Northwestern universities suggests that US political system serves special interest organizations, instead of voters.
The report, entitled Testing Theories of American Politics:
Elites, Interest Groups, and Average Citizens, used extensive policy data collected from between the years of 1981 and 2002 to empirically determine the state of the US political system.
After sifting through nearly 1,800 US policies enacted in that period and comparing them to the expressed preferences of average Americans (50th percentile of income), affluent Americans (90th percentile) and large special interests groups, researchers concluded that the United States is dominated by its economic elite.
The fundamental law of capitalism must be: If workers have more money, businesses have more customers. Which makes middle-class consumers, not rich businesspeople like us, the true job creators. Which means a thriving middle class is the source of American prosperity, not a consequence of it. The middle class creates us rich people, not the other way around.
THE BREXIT
"FUCK YOU"The 'Brexit' Selloff
Things haven't been up for grabs since the 2008 crash. This was a protest vote from the millions of working class citizens who have just been left behind and don't want unelected appointed politicians ordering them around anymore.
World’s 400 Richest People Lose $127 Billion on Brexit June 24, 2016
The world’s 400 richest people lost $127.4 billion Friday as global equity markets reeled from the news that British voters elected to leave the European Union.
The billionaires lost 3.2 percent of their total net worth, bringing the combined sum to $3.9 trillion, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index.
The biggest decline belonged to Europe’s richest person, Amancio Ortega, who lost more than $6 billion, while nine others dropped more than $1 billion, including Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos and Gerald Cavendish Grosvenor, the wealthiest person in the U.K.
Gerald Cavendish Grosvenor died at the Royal Preston Hospital in Lancashire on Tuesday after suddenly becoming ill on his Abbeystead Estate. The duke's fortune was estimated at $10.8bn (£8.3bn) by Forbes magazine, making him the world's 68th richest person and the UK's third. A friend of the Royal Family, he became the sixth Duke of Westminster in 1979. The Grosvenor family accrued much of their London wealth through the marriage of Sir Thomas Grosvenor to the heiress Mary Davies in 1677. According to the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography she brought Grosvenor "the estates which would become the cornerstone of the family's later wealth". The estates were described as Ebury farm, east of Chelsea, and a large holding between Tyburn Brook and Park Lane in central London. Today these are part of the wealthy Belgravia and Mayfair districts.

The establishment uncovered: how power works in Britain Elites Stranglehold
But following parliament acts passed by MPs in 1911 and 1949, this power was curtailed when the elected House of Commons enshrined in law its own dominance over the aristocrats' House of Lords. The legacy of centuries of aristocratic power has not vanished, though: more than a third of English and Welsh land – and more than 50% of rural land – remains in the hands of just 36,000 aristocrats. - Top of British society is a racket for the privileged

WEALTH INEQUALITY
According to The Global 1%: Exposing the Transnational Ruling Class August 22, 2012 by Peter Phillips and Kimberly Soeiro
This study asks Who are the the world’s 1 percent power elite?
And to what extent do they operate in unison for their own private gains over benefits for the 99 percent?
We examine a sample of the 1 percent: the extractor sector, whose companies are on the ground extracting material from the global commons, and using low-cost labor to amass wealth. These companies include oil, gas, and various mineral extraction organizations, whereby the value of the material removed far exceeds the actual cost of removal.We also examine the investment sector of the global 1 percent: companies whose primary activity is the amassing and reinvesting of capital. This sector includes global central banks, major investment money management firms, and other companies whose primary efforts are the concentration and expansion of money, such as insurance companies.
Finally, we analyze how global networks of centralized power—the elite 1 percent, their companies, and various governments in their service—plan, manipulate, and enforce policies that benefit their continued concentration of wealth and power. We demonstrate how the US/NATO military-industrial-media empire operates in service to the transnational corporate class for the protection of international capital in the world.
We All Pay for Low Wages
Raising the federal minimum wage to $12 an hour would save an estimated $17 billion per year for U.S. taxpayers, according to a study by the Economic Policy Institute. The EPI’s study, “Balancing paychecks and public assistance,” found that, not surprisingly, low wages equal government help.
The concentration of wealth from rentseekingThey Don’t Just Hide Their Money.
The 62 richest people in the world own as much wealth as half of humanity.
Such extreme wealth conjures images of both fat cats and deserving entrepreneurs. So where did so much money come from? It turns out, three-fourths of extreme wealth in the US falls on the fat cat side.
A key empirical question in the inequality debate is to what extent rich people derive their wealth from “rents”, which is windfall income they did not produce, as opposed to activities creating true economic benefit.

DEMAND A MINIMUM WAGE OF 15.00 AN HOUR.
THEN YOU WON'T NEED FOOD STAMPS AND CAN SURVIVE WITHOUT THE HELP OF THE TAX PAYER.
THIS WON'T HURT ANY EMPLOYER - NO JOBS WILL BE LOST.
4/6/14 A Burger Joint Pays $15 An Hour. And, Yes, It's Making Money !!!!
Raising the minimum wage to $15 an hour would inject about $450 billion into the economy each year.
That would give more purchasing power to millions of poor and lower-middle-class Americans, and would stimulate buying, production and hiring. Studies by the Economic Policy Institute show that a $15 minimum wage would directly affect 51 million workers and indirectly benefit an additional 30 million. That’s 81 million people, or about 64 percent of the workforce, and their families who would be more able to buy cars, clothing and food from our nation’s businesses.
States That Raised Minimum Wage See Faster Job Growth
Data released by the Department of Labor suggests that raising the minimum wage in some states might have spurred job growth, contrary to what critics said would happen. 13 states that raised their minimum wages on Jan. 1 have added jobs at a faster pace than those that did not. The data run counter to a Congressional Budget Office report in February that said raising the minimum wage to $10.10 an hour, as the White House supports, would cost 500,000 jobs.

The Myth of America's Golden Age
EXAMPLE THE WISONSIN CHAIR CO. June 28th 1934
The Port Washington Post published a statement by Otto Moeser, saying that the minimum wage of any employee would be increased with one cent to 35 cents per hour. This increase, although it meant a monthly loss of over $600 was granted in order to promote peace, harmony and good-will between employer and employee. Also a donation of 150 folding chairs, as a gift for the labour hall was made.

Symphony the new financial information and messaging service backed by Goldman Sachs and several other leading banks, will displace incriminating financial messaging for Wall Street. Libor and Derivitive Prosecutions relying on shards of instant messages and emails The multiplying array of tools such as Snapchat and WhatsApp that circumvent compliance; and the simpler possibility that Symphony could prove lucrative. Data privacy have been changed by Edward Snowden, the US whistleblower. Everyone is being watched all the time, and if I were a bank, I would want to be firmly in control of my own communications.
ONLY THE 1% HAVE THE LAWS IN PLACE TO PROTECT THEIR PRIVACY

They have the money to buy the lawyers to avoid all the rules the rest of us can't escape.
WHAT DO BANKS ACTUALLY SELL? PRIVACY!
Did you ever notice when "Forbes" prints its annual list of the richest Americans and you've never heard of most of them. That's right, they don't equate wealth with publicity. And you shouldn't either.

2016 Giant Leak of Offshore Financial Records Exposes Global Array of Crime and Corruption
ICIJ -- The International Consortium of Investigative Journalists
A massive leak of documents exposes the offshore holdings of 12 current and former world leaders and reveals how associates of Russian President Vladimir Putin secretly shuffled as much as $2 billion through banks and shadow companies.
The leak also provides details of the hidden financial dealings of 128 more politicians and public officials around the world. The cache of 11.5 million records shows how a global industry of law firms and big banks sells financial secrecy to politicians, fraudsters and drug traffickers as well as billionaires, celebrities and sports stars. These are among the findings of a yearlong investigation by the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists, German newspaper Süddeutsche Zeitung and more than 100 other news organizations. The files expose offshore companies controlled by the prime ministers of Iceland and Pakistan, the king of Saudi Arabia and the children of the president of Azerbaijan.
They also include at least 33 people and companies blacklisted by the U.S. government because of evidence that they’d been involved in wrongdoing, such as doing business with Mexican drug lords, terrorist organizations like Hezbollah or rogue nations like North Korea and Iran. One of those companies supplied fuel for the aircraft that the Syrian government used to bomb and kill thousands of its own citizens, U.S. authorities have charged.
Many of the world’s top’s banks – including UBS, Clariden and Deutsche Bank – have aggressively worked to provide their customers with secrecy-cloaked companies in the British Virgin Islands and other offshore hideaways. A well-paid industry of accountants, middlemen and other operatives has helped Government officials and their families and associates help offshore patrons shroud their identities and business interests, providing shelter in many cases to money laundering or other misconduct.
The only thing banks sell is secrecy which is a much more important story than wikileaks every was.

WHEN THE ROBOTS REPLACE ALL THE WORKERS!

THE TAKE AWAY:
AUTOMATION PRODUCED ABUNDANCE FOR LITTLE EFFORT.
WHAT WILL WE DO WHEN THE MAJORITY OF THE WORK FORCE IS UNEMPLOYABLE?
Of course, the real issue, then, is wealth distribution.
Who 'takes home' the benefits from such dramatic labor-saving?
The way things are going in the US, for example, the answer is: a good bit less than 1% of the population.
Of course the world's north-south divide illustrates this injustice at the global level.
So - not at all surprisingly - the driving issues are human, social - and most of all, political.
Progress today comes rapidly. Consider the numbers for information storage density in computer memory. Between 1960 and 2003, those densities increased by a factor of five million, at times progressing at a rate of 60% per year. At the same time, true to Moore’s Law, semiconductor technology has been progressing at a 40% rate for more than 50 years. These rates of progress are embedded in the creation of intelligent machines, from robots to automobiles to drones, that will soon dominate the global economy – and in the process drive down the value of human labor with astonishing speed. This is why we will soon be looking at hordes of citizens of zero economic value.
THE END OF CAPITALISM
AS WE KNOW ITThere's a real scarcity of economists willing to think about the possibility that abundance makes markets obsolete altogether. Property rights may be a way of allocating resources when there aren't enough of them to go around, but when automation replaces labor altogether and there's lots of everything, do we still need it?

UBER is a Facist movement, a genocidal right wing totalitarian movement of the 20th century.
There’s no way to avoid the association with “Deutschland Uber Alles,” the German national anthem. CEO Travis Kalanick didn’t focus-group the shit out of the name. (For whatever it’s worth, Kalanick’s family is supposedly Czech and, ahem, Austrian.) Uber is decimating their incomes and treating them “like slaves.” Slave labor: No one did it better than the fascists. From nothing to the verge of world domination. That’s in six years. Fascism and Nazism viewed themselves not just as mere ideologies, but as dynamic movements that had to be constantly conquering new territory.
Thuggery
During their drive to power and well into the early years of their regime, the Nazis claimed to adhere to the outlines of legality, while constantly skirting the spirit of the law and trying to get away with, literally, murder. Given the choice between negotiating with traditional authorities or treating them like rivals, they often resorted to thuggish, bullying tactics. Just remember: When you ride with Uber, you’re riding with Hitler.
