Matthew Stein ~ When Disaster Strikes or Technology Fails

Matthew Stein on VeritasRadio.com | When Disaster Strikes or Technology Fails | Segment


Did you know that if the power grid fails in the United States, we could facing thousands of Chernobyls all happening at the same time? There are approximately 104 nuclear reactors in the USA. What should we do if one of these reactors went into meltdown?

Tonight, we discuss six trends, each of which are potential civilization busters. These trends may be forming into the "Perfect Storm" for collapse. Do we have a chance for avoiding long term collapse of the world as we know it?

Every time a natural disaster is on the horizon, like a huge blizzard or a major hurricane, the so-called "experts" on the radio and TV tell us what they think we need to do to be prepared, yet people always find themselves grossly unprepared. What things are they not telling us that we need to know, and what are some of the most important things in your 72-hour survival kit that are lacking in what these "experts" recommend?

Five acres of land and an off grid home sound like the way to go, but quite frankly they are out of reach for most people who are living from paycheck to paycheck. Are those without extra cash just out of luck or is there hope? What can we do to prepare?

There are dark clouds gathering on the horizon. Collectively, they are converging to form the perfect storm—a storm of such magnitude that it will dwarf anything that mankind has ever seen. If we are unsuccessful in our attempts to calm this storm, without a doubt it will destroy life as we know it on Planet Earth!




For this and ways to survive when disaster strikes or technology fails and ways to prevent these disasters and live in a sustainable world, Matthew Stein is tonight's special guest.

Euro Crisis is Just Beginning, Global Collapse is Coming

The “business” types love free-money – as long as they are on the receiving end. You work, they profit from your work, but they don’t call this a “tax”. And if you quit obeying them, you starve in the street. Tax-handouts ARE theft, and so is COERCING a person to ‘work’ by cutting them off from the Land God Made for them to live from.Anyone who doesn’t see this giant outhouse economy about to come down around our ankles isn’t paying attention. Get your savings out of the banks and the stock market now for God’s sake. This comedy is about to end in a tragedy.

Ron Paul : The Great Cyprus Bank Robbery

Ron Paul's Texas Straight Talk 4/1/13: The Great Cyprus Bank Robbery


The Great Cyprus Bank Robbery
by Ron Paul

The dramatic recent events in Cyprus have highlighted the fundamental weakness in the European banking system and the extreme fragility of fractional reserve banking. Cypriot banks invested heavily in Greek sovereign debt, and last summer's Greek debt restructuring resulted in losses equivalent to more than 25 percent of Cyprus' GDP. These banks then took their bad investments to the government, demanding a bailout from an already beleaguered Cypriot treasury. The government of Cyprus then turned to the European Union (EU) for a bailout.

The terms insisted upon by the troika (European Commission, European Central Bank, International Monetary Fund) before funding the bailout were nothing short of highway robbery. While bank depositors have traditionally been protected in the event of bankruptcy or liquidation, the troika insisted that all bank depositors pay a tax of between 6.75 and 10 percent of their total deposits to help fund the bailout.

While one can sympathize with EU taxpayers not wanting to fund yet another bailout of a poorly-managed banking system, forcing the Cypriot people to pay for the foolish risks taken by their government and bankers is also criminal. In their desire to punish a "tax haven" catering supposedly to Russian oligarchs, the EU elites ensured that ordinary citizens would suffer just as much as foreign depositors. Imagine the reaction if in September 2008, the US government had financed its $700 billion bank bailout by directly looting American taxpayers' bank accounts!

While the Cypriot parliament rejected that first proposal, they will have no say in the final proposal delivered by the EU and IMF: deposits over 100,000 euros are likely to see losses of at least 40 percent and possibly as much as 80 percent. "Temporary" capital controls that were supposed to last for days will now last at least a month and might remain in effect for years.

Especially affected have been the elderly, who were unable to use ATMs or to transfer money electronically. Despite the fact that ATMs severely limited the size of withdrawals during the two week-long bank closure, reports indicated that account holders who had access to Cypriot bank branches in London and Athens were able to withdraw most of their funds, leading to speculation that there would be no money available when banks finally opened up again. In other words, the supposed Russian oligarch money may well be already gone.

Remember that under a fractional reserve banking system only a small percentage of deposits is kept on hand for dispersal to depositors. The rest of the money is loaned out. Not only are many of the loans made by these banks going bad, but the reserve requirement in Euro-system countries is only one percent! If just one euro out of every hundred is withdrawn from banks, the bank reserves would be completely exhausted and the whole system would collapse. Is it any wonder, then, that the EU fears a major bank run and has shipped billions of euros to Cyprus?

The elites in the EU and IMF failed to learn their lesson from the popular backlash to these tax proposals, and have openly talked about using Cyprus as a template for future bank bailouts. This raises the prospect of raids on bank accounts, pension funds, and any investments the government can get its hands on. In other words, no one's money is safe in any financial institution in Europe. Bank runs are now a certainty in future crises, as the people realize that they do not really own the money in their accounts. How long before bureaucrat and banker try that here?

Unfortunately, all of this is the predictable result of a fiat paper money system combined with fractional reserve banking. When governments and banks collude to monopolize the monetary system so that they can create money out of thin air, the result is a business cycle that wreaks havoc on the economy. Pyramiding more and more loans on top of a tiny base of money will create an economic house of cards just waiting to collapse. The situation in Cyprus should be both a lesson and a warning to the United States. We need to end the Federal Reserve, stay away from propping up the euro, and return to a sound monetary system.

Mike Rivero ~ What Really Happened Radio Show: Wednesday April 3 2013

Michael Rivero is the webmaster of http://whatreallyhappened.com/ and host of the What Really Happened radio shows on the Republic Broadcasting Network. Formerly with NASA, Michael transitioned his image processing skills (along with a brief stint as an actor) into the then-new motion picture computer animation field and has worked on films such as "Star Trek", "The Day After Tomorrow", and has supervised visual effects on "Brainscan," "LOST", and "Hawaii Five-0." Michael has taken a sabbatical from film work to focus all his efforts on peace activism. Michaels foray into blogging began before the word was even invented, and happened almost by accident when he spotted a suspicious photograph being broadcast on ABC news in 1994 related to the death of White House deputy Council Vincent Foster. Since that sudden beginning, Michaels website has expanded to cover diverse topics including the JFK assassination, the accidental shoot-down of TWA 800, election fraud, health issues, Saddams non-existent nuclear weapons, 9-11, the economy, and of course, the lies used to trick the United States into wars of conquest on Afghanistan, Iraq, and now Iran. Michael resides in Hawaii with his wife Claire, who is a composer and creates much of theme music used on the What Really Happened radio show.

Obama: You Do Not need Guns to Protect Yourselves against The Government , The Government is us

Pres. Obama: Need Gun to Protect Oneself from Government? Government Is Us.
meanwhile Obama cannot walk in the streets without an army of armed bodyguards protecting him , but he wants to disarm the Americans so that the Banks can rule America and the world without resistance

4/3/13 - Barack Obama chided those gun rights advocates who claim they require firearms to protect themselves against the overreach of the federal government. The president said that these concerns were invalid. "The government's us," he said.
"The opponents of some of these common sense laws have ginned up fears among responsible gun owners that have nothing to do with what's being proposed -- nothing to do with the facts -- but feeds into this suspicion about government,"
"You hear some of these quotes: I need a gun to protect myself from the government, We can't do background checks because the government's gonna come take my guns away."
"The government's us, These officials are elected by you. They are constrained as I am constrained, by a system that our founders put in place."
"Surely, we can have a debate that's not based on the notion, somehow, that you're elected representatives are trying to do something to you other than potentially prevent another group of families from grieving the way the families of Aurora, or Newtown, or Columbine have grieved,"

BREAKING : US Sends Missile Defense to Guam amid of North Korea Threatening Attacks

The land-based missile defense system will help defend the U.S. base in Guam from a North Korean attack.
I think China wants the PRK to wipe out American and Japanese forces in the area to make China's future aggressions to be highly successful.

The Real Story Behind the Monsanto Protection Act

Barack Obama's signing of 'The Monsanto Protection Act', or H.R. 933 is really only small part of a much bigger pattern and corruption and collusion between Monsanto and the U.S. government.

Korean Peninsula ~ Tensions Heat Up

North Korean army claims it has final approval for nuclear strike on US.
(Reuters) - North Korea said it had "ratified" a merciless attack against the United States, potentially involving a "diversified nuclear strike".

"We formally inform the White House and Pentagon that the ever-escalating U.S. hostile policy toward the DPRK (North Korea) and its reckless nuclear threat will be smashed by the strong will of all the united service personnel and people and cutting-edge smaller, lighter and diversified nuclear strike means of the DPRK and that the merciless operation of its revolutionary armed forces in this regard has been finally examined and ratified," a spokesman for the General Staff of the Korean People's Army said in a statement carried by the English language service of the state news agency KCNA.

The White House has issued the following reaction:
We've seen today's statement by North Korea, again making unhelpful and unconstructive threats. It is yet another offering in a long line of provocative statements that only serve to further isolate North Korea from the rest of the international community and undermine its goal of economic development. North Korea should stop its provocative threats and instead concentrate on abiding by its international obligations.

Earlier today, Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel said, "As they have ratcheted up (their) bellicose, dangerous rhetoric — and some of the actions they've taken over the last few weeks present a real and clear danger and threat to the interests, certainly of our allies, starting with South Korea and Japan."

Poverty, an Artificial Imposition by the NWO

The End of Poverty

You don't have to live in Africa to experience this government imposed poverty. The idea that food stamps, educational subsidies and health benefits are entitlement programs that 'the poor' are unworthy to receive are examples of the same mindset occurring here in the U.S. But the gutting of these programs here is more subtle and insidious than the more blatant practices your article highlighted. It is almost that as the economy grows, and the 'one percent' that are the beneficiaries of this growth get richer, the idea that 'the government' spends too much money on 'entitlements' and restrictions on the wealthy (i.e. corporations and their stock holders) must be removed gets stronger. It gets pretty hard to believe that this is not deliberate. It is probably just human nature, or some mathematical property of the capitalistic economic system that puts pressure on that system to make the 'elite' even stronger, rather than a conspiracy. It sure seems like one though, and government needs to find a way to ensure a more equitable distribution of the wealth of our nation. Its too bad that idea has been branded 'socialism' and therefore 'anathema' to American values. It only seems to be common sense to me. The idea that governments should ensure at least a somewhat equitable distribution of wealth among its people is anathema in the U.S. and is under attack in Europe as well. In Africa it was never allowed to take hold, and the financial powers that run the world seem to like it that way. I think its absolutely insane that the consensus opinion is that we spend too much money on entitlements - like health care and education. That the wealthy corporations need less 'regulation' because they provide the 'jobs'. The elite class that run these corporations are not interested in providing jobs, they just want more money, and each job created means money that, for them, flows in the wrong direction. I do hope that the 'occupy movement' is a sign that the American People are finally waking up to this fact. I don't think 'the one percent' as individuals are inherently evil, nor do I propose class warfare, but a new model needs to be built that strips power from the financial institutions, for those institutions are structured so that policies that keep the money flowing upward to the elites of all countries benefit them as well. That power is currently corrupting all nations, not just Africa. I do hope a way can be found to 'fix the system', because it is obviously totally out of control.

Mike Rivero ~ Obama Is Pushing Banks To Make More Home Loans To Borrowers With Poor Credit

The Obama administration is engaged in a broad push to make more home loans available to people with weaker credit, an effort that officials say will help power the economic recovery but that skeptics say could open the door to the risky lending that caused the housing crash in the first place. President Obama’s economic advisers and outside experts say the nation’s much-celebrated housing rebound is leaving too many people behind, including young people looking to buy their first homes and individuals with credit records weakened by the recession.(Washington Post )

Build Up To WW3 - North Korea - Any small mistake can turn into Catastrophe

Lead Up To WW3 - North Korea - 'Any small mistake can turn into catastrophe'



North Korea has suspended South Korean access to a joint industrial zone - the latest move in the ongoing conflict with Washington and Seoul. Pyongyang also says it will restart a nuclear reactor to beef up its arsenal - after Washington moved its military closer to the Korean peninsula. The UN says the deadlock has gone too far. North Korea earlier claimed its missile units are combat-ready - and warned of a possible pre-emptive strike on the U.S. and Seoul. Tim Shorrock has written extensively about US foreign policy and East Asian politics - and believes both sides should know they are playing a dangerous game.

North Korea Threatens to Nuke Los Angeles, Hawaii, and Austin Texas!!!

The photos appeared in the state-run Rodong newspaper and were apparently taken at an "emergency meeting" early on Friday morning. They show Kim signing the order for North Korea's strategic rocket forces to be on standby to fire at US targets, the paper said, with large-scale maps and diagrams in the background. The meeting of Pyongyang's senior military leaders was called after two US B2 bombers, flying out of bases in Missouri, carried out simulated bombing raids on North Korean targets on an island off the coast of South Korea. "He finally signed the plan on technical preparations of strategic rockets, ordering them to be on standby to fire so that they may strike any time the US mainland, its military bases in the operational theatres in the Pacific, including Hawaii and Guam, and those in South Korea," the state-run KCNA news agency reported. It added that the B2 test flights demonstrated Washington's "hostile intent" and said the "reckless" act had gone "beyond the phase of threat and blackmail." The North's military was placed on its highest alert level earlier this week and a hotline link with the South Korean military was severed. North Korea has also cut the mobile Internet link for foreign visitors, only weeks after the 3G service was introduced. Despite the increasingly belligerent rhetoric and new images emerging from the North Korean regime, analysts believe its missiles are not capable of striking targets as far away as the US mainland and are not, as yet, capable of delivering a nuclear payload. The images of Kim surrounded by his officers and diagrams of targets in the US are designed for a domestic consumption and to demonstrate the young leader's mastery of military affairs, experts believe.

George Galloway interviews Nigel Farage on The European Debt Crisis

All eyes are once again on the latest attempts to resolve the eurozone debt crisis, with European finance ministers gathering in Poland for a meeting. Worries about a Greek default are high on the agenda, and US Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner is attending the meeting, underlining Washington's fears that problems in the eurozone could spread beyond Europe. UK Chancellor of the Exchequer George Osborne said on Friday that the eurozone's situation was "grave", and Austria's finance minister refused to rule out the prospect of an eventual Greek default. The BBC has learned that the UBS trader being questioned on suspicion of unauthorised trading alerted the bank himself. The BBC's business editor, Robert Peston, says UBS's internal controls did not pick up the huge loss allegedly generated by its trader Kweku Adoboli, and that Mr Adoboli told UBS that he had engaged in unauthorised trades. Shares have continued to rise following Thursday's news of emergency liquidity measures by five central banks. The central banks are trying to encourage lenders, especially in Europe, to keep lending to each other, and are to provide commercial banks with three additional tranches of loans to help ease funding pressures. India's central bank has raised interest rates for the 12th time in 18 months to try to curb inflation. The Reserve Bank of India raised the policy lending rate, called the repo rate, by 25 basis points to 8.25%. India has been struggling to contain inflation which is at a 13-month high of 9.78%. Staying in Asia, Manchester United has received approval to sell shares on the Singapore Stock Exchange. The club aims to raise $1bn (£635m) to pay off some of its debts by selling about 25% of the parent company's shares. United want to complete the process by the end of the year. The latest edition of the Business Daily programme from the BBC World Service talks to supporters of a potentially game-changing alternative source of nuclear power.
