The Flood and Daniel 7: 9-15

Biblical criticism advanced several methods for filtering the veracity of the Bible since the 18^th century. Most of the critical devices turned out to be logically incomplete. Even so one may reasonably consider the Genesis story of the flood in several interpretive paradigms when one adds what is known of history to the mix. Before Columbus discovered the New World most people did not think of the world as being round. Kopernik/Copernicus developed a heliocentric theory published in 1543.  Copernicus started looking in 1504 for sun-centred mechanics in 1504. After Magellan expedition sailed around the world 1519-1522 the heliocentric theory was doomed to acceptance even among scientists.

It is quite possible that people of 2000 B.C. did not think of the world as referring to a round Earth either. People capturing the gist of the story in 3^rd millennium B.C. Sumer perhaps didn’t use geographic concepts that wouldn’t make much sense to people for another 3 or 4 thousand years. Hence the history of the flood story may refer to a local event in Mesopotamia. That seems consistent with other facts related in the narrative.  Some anti-Christians tend to read today’s meaning of the word ‘world’ into Genesis and dismiss the timing due to evolution theory paradigmata. Without considering the meaning of the terms of Genesis much people may leap to wrong conclusions and be satisfied with their subjective epistemology; bad choice.

Considering that Abraham of Sumer brought the flood story with him in moving to Zion circa 2000 B.C., and that his knowledge of the story of the flood was the same story from the same place as related in the Tale of Gilgamesh, according to modern skeptical criticism it is probably true. Geography and the history of sea level rise and global warming at the end of the Wisconsin Glacial era support the concept that a proto-civilization also known as the whole world to the people of the region actually was subsumed by a catastrophic flood. Noah's home town might have existed under today's Persian Gulf anytime since the ending of the Wisconsin Ice age perhaps 25,000 years ago.

Noah of course survived the flood being prepared with a vessel able to ride out the storm surge and flood. Maybe the proto-civilization was below sea level and protected by a dirt barrier that was overcome suddenly. That happened in the history of the Black Sea very long ago too. The Bible relates that Noah’s sons went out to found peoples-and they didn’t do that alone. Genesis seems to indicate that local women were already living in Egypt, Cush etc. That makes sense. A local flood wiped out the first civilization and the sons of Noah journeyed to start new civilizations. They had the advantage of knowledge.

Some very conservative literalists will demure with the theory above saying that the entire book of Genesis originates with Moses through revelation. That is partly true. Moses as a son of Israel perhaps learned Jewish history from those that went with the Jews into Egyptian captivity. The captive Jews learned that from Abraham’s line. Moses as a prince of Egypt new hieroglyphics and learned the Jewish language of the day-Hebrew. In the 40 years wandering in the desert Moses was able to synthesize/invent the first phonetic alphabet-the aleph beth, and the Ten Commandments appeared carved in stone-so much better than on just paper or a digital medium for durability. All of the aforementioned was divinely inspired. Some can quibble about how much and what form the divine guidance affected the construction of the history of the chosen people. I should mention that this theory is only one way of interpreting the content of Genesis-others exist. Neither is it necessary that there is only one right interpretation for the meaning of Genesis and the Flood story. Maybe it can be said that divine guidance is the necessary criterion.

This was written by the Prophet Daniel about 550 B.C.

Daniel 7:

^“9 I beheld till the thrones were cast down, and the Ancient of days did sit, whose garment was white as snow, and the hair of his head like the pure wool: his throne was like the fiery flame, and his wheels as burning fire.

¹⁰ A fiery stream issued and came forth from before him: thousand thousands ministered unto him, and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him: the judgment was set, and the books were opened.

¹¹ I beheld then because of the voice of the great words which the horn spake: I beheld even till the beast was slain, and his body destroyed, and given to the burning flame.

¹² As concerning the rest of the beasts, they had their dominion taken away: yet their lives were prolonged for a season and time.

¹³ I saw in the night visions, and, behold, one like the Son of man came with the clouds of heaven, and came to the Ancient of days, and they brought him near before him.

¹⁴ And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages, should serve him: his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed.

¹⁵ I Daniel was grieved in my spirit in the midst of my body, and the visions of my head troubled me.”

Christians believe the above refers to God the Father and Jesus Christ. There is a teleology (purpose and divine plan) for the people of the world leading to heaven or hell. One may be saved from the latter with faith in Jesus Christ as Lord. It is an important choice to make.

Recent U.S. Foreign and Domestic Policy Failures

A new and improved version of the prior post with enhanced commentary on the present increase of strife in Iraq. The United States should consider an intervention to reduce violence. Ground combat advisers would be helpful to reinforce the Iraq Army. It is not certain that the President would invoke the 90 day war powers license to send U.S. military forces directly or to engage high-level diplomacy for creating U.S. military concerns in Iraq within a fortnight yet he should if he is capable of limiting the scale of troop deployment.

One can suggest correct a priori remedies for emergent social problems including those of environmental degradation and know for sure the U.S. Government and political structure will ignore them. Social inertia and bureaucratic structures support the continuity of bad public policy with liberal application of financial band aids. One gets a vast dysfunction machine that is costly and inefficient as a result. Here are some current issues.

 The porous Mexican-American border flooded with illegal aliens. In the future as world population increases beyond 10 billion and moves toward 12 billion and up the number of illegal immigrants is likely to increase especially if global warming, desertification and financial crisis, wars and other ecospheric or political issues send floods to enter the U.S.A. No fence or deployment of Marines would be good remedies for a number of social, political and environmental reasons. In the long run the construction of an ecosphere water desalinization-irrigation production canal and defense line across the Southwest is the best political acceptable way to create a reasonable yet impassable border barrier. I have written about that elsewhere. The government however will prefer to use ecologically unconstructive, inefficient means of stemming the human tide if it reacts at all besides Hollywood and media propaganda support for indifference. Green projects help society in numerous ways where political solutions fail. They can catalyze international remedies that help the poor rather than exploit them.

 Another issue is the failures of Obamacare and V.A. service to veterans and the poor. For years I suggested that the V.A. system be expanded and integrated with public health clinics around the nations for the poor and homeless. Instead the expensive and inefficient Obamacare build-up of corporate medicine advanced while the V.A. was left to rot and half of the states didn’t cover the poor in Obamacare. I have written about that elsewhere. Recently the Obama administration appointed a fellow named Gibson to run the V.A. He had been head of clinics for the poor in Cleveland-another band aid.

The rise of Al Qaeda’s ISIS soldiery to capture Mosul and Tikrit and announce a march to capture Baghdad is a result of the administration’s failures to comprehend the nature of Middle East politics and society. Building up Al Qaeda terrorists to attack the Syrian Government has back-blasted into Iraq. Obama administration preferences to degrade the Shia and Alawi have emboldened the Sunni in what is traditional sectarian conflict. Al Qaeda as a result is probably stronger than before 9-11. In the future they can infiltrate over the border with leadership from Taliban released from Gitmo-who knows?

A little military intervention can be worth a pound of cure. The trouble with the Obama administration is the lack of military judgment about appropriate force levels in the Goldilocks Criterion. Three bears have taken the lunch Goldilocks slaved over for Iraq after removing the evil dictator Saddam Hussein. What sort of force interdiction should Goldilocks commission to recover Iraq for Democracy-that is the Shia-Kurd alliance with careful cooperation from difficult to trust non-Kurdish Sunni to friendly with Wahhabism’s extreme elements?

 http://www.miamiherald.com/2014/06/12/4174237/fear-sectarianism-behind-iraq.html

As a military non expert like many civilians I suggest only Army special forces and Air Force personnel be permitted to use a base or two in Iraq after a quick long-term leasing agreement from the Iraqi Government so we can send a couple brigades of special forces-BlackOp Bop leadership to coordinate resistance and free the oppressed from the rising Caliphate of evil royalty.

It actually matters when administration failure to take specific action at the correct time reverses whatever good a prior administration accomplished. Numerous individuals perish with the non-benign neglect on critical matters. Plainly Senator McCain reinforced the President's wrong decision to build up the anti-government insurrection in Syria, and now the moderate use of governing force is required to stabilize a degrading situation in Iraq before the situation gets worse. There are intelligence and trust issues amid the uneasy sectarian alliance of democracy in Iraq that benefit from impartial support by the U.S. defense establishment.

Christianity in the Quantum Era

Modern America could be said to have entered the quantum era of social phenomenality. P.A.M. Dirac and Wolfgang Pauli led the way with Einstein, Dewey and Sartre to the edge of phenomenal relativism not just in science and education but in Wall Street banking and government. Social organization is encouraged to be regarded as ad hoc and free; a wild maturization of capitalism of the frontiers while it is simultaneously treated as a practico-inert substance for material exploitation by collective business and government economic militants. Christianity is still relevant as the blessing unto all nations flowing through Abraham even so. The Jews served as God’s pedagogical nation to bring the people of the world unto Himself from the wilderness of sin they were and are lost within.

Like and aircraft carrier battle group American social organization is something like an atom with a core nucleus and valence and eigenvalues of quantum orbits and packets of power. Gravity and other forces exist in quantum packets as divisions from the one field tend to split probabilistically in a balance of power structure. Atomic and quantum proportions from large to small sweep and clear, consolidate and organize within quantum structuralism. The broadcast media is an outer orbit of electrons protected by the sacred first amendment developed to let that ruling class have a priority over political and social organization; the only important feature of international relations is that the broadcast media have something to report and keep them busy. The political governing core symbiotically interacts with public opinion polls reported by the media and the machine mechanism allows Wall Street and the rich to expand the networking of power. A quantum military mercenary core loyal to the machine and without political realism regarding a democratic society serves it. These are quantum social phenomena of the 21^st century. It is a leaky and inefficient machine destructive of the society, economy and environment with non-renewable elements failing the principle of integration with the actual thermodynamic characteristics of the macro-Universe in a positive and sustainable development.

The gospel of Jesus Christ presented in the bible is an integrated, wholistic way to salvation for those of faith. The ethics of the Old Testament are fulfilled in the New Testament instructions of the Lord wherein one learns the commandments of God as they are written upon the heart.

The Apostle Paul wrote in Romans chapter 13 explaining ordinances of God consistent with the real ways of human nature even today. In popular music one finds innumerable song lyrics consistent with the relations of Adam and Eve given by God after the fall in the garden. Eve was deceived and Adam willfully went along with her error. Troubles existed between men and women subsequently though they are attracted to one another. That is consistent with the quantum structure of physics of course existing since the creation. In Paul’s commentary from verses 8-11 one reads of the failures of the quantum social organization in economics and banking in particular-especially in the ubiquitous loans and loan corruptions generally responsible for the 2008 banking and derivatives Wall Street crash, the home finance collapse and ongoing issues with student loans and public debt generally. Of course the socially disorganizing tendencies of disregard for the word of God prefers the ways of sin and error in economics, environment and social structuring generally expressing preponderantly an inability to comprehend challenging Utopian Christian ethics. It is notable that many Christians do as well.

This is what the Apostle wrote about loans and love; “⁸ Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law. ⁹ For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if there be any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. ¹⁰ Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law.”

A reformed quantum social structure could adapt to the no-load, no-loan principle of social adequacy in acceptable ecospheric economic activity with competent and measured technological advance. The proliferation of vast financial networks and the concentration of wealth isn’t a preferred method for conservation a moral social environment, life on Earth or human and civil liberties that are more than rights inherent to particular political party use-truths. Trust in the Lord Jesus Christ for guidance through the word of God is the sole way to finesse the accelerated volatility of indebtedness and catastrophe in mass social financing.

World Political Economy Evolving Inhumanism

There are numerous economic movements through advanced thinking machines and additional technology to practical inhumanism. One can imagine the economic race to develop artificial intelligence for drones with commercial and military applications and how that could lead to rule-by-smart-drones. Yet with the reduction of memory storage size on going it may be practical to conceal the location of the actual ruling c.p.u.

Nothing in human character would have much political interest in restricting or delimiting the economic advance of artificial intelligence and its applications. The more concerned one might be the likelier it is that the prevailing economic ruling powers would set that individual and his or her political agenda outside the mainstream. Well-it is just one of numerous potentially catastrophic developments that seem to be appearing like weeds in the never placid human economic garden historically.

Miniaturization of computer chips may allow swarms or individual bee-size anti-personnel bots to fly solar powered hunting humans as individuals, or as soldiers or simply for being human. The ability of a.i. guidance chips in lethal stealth bees capable of infiltrating land units and ships at sea will allow physical hostile takeover viruses with infiltration tools to enter and tap into nuclear missiles in silos, fighter aircraft in flight and perhaps empty out command and control blocks.  Civil political planners might want to recognize the potential for mass social disaster as the evolving criteria for wild conflicts outside civil control progresses.

It is remarkable the King Herod that took the king and priestly offices for himself with the support of the Roman Government in 41 (appx.) B.C. had no actual right to rule. He was an Idumean rather than a Jew and wasn’t of the traditional Zadokite or priestly class. Additionally Herod the Great was only a temporary in-law through marriage of the Hasmonean dynasty. Though he rebuilt the Temple at Jerusalem it was destroyed on the day it was finished-history has these odd twists and turns making social existence interesting. Global warming seems to remind one of Noah’s issues about water and the marginalization of humanity with the concentration of economic power through super-computing as well as the degradation of democracy in the U.S.A. as material production shifts to China with the middle class expected to buy and consume things without actually producing much or having good jobs in order to keep the economy growing for illegal aliens arriving in Texas yet flown to Arizona in a Democrat Party catch and release program are routine. Vast public debts and electronic currency printing by the Federal Reserve for vast zero interest loans to the rich so they can buy everything in existence are the new normal.

I suppose one should inventory all of the potentially mass catastrophes being adroitly mismanaged or ignored by the U.S. Government, yet what purpose would that really have besides giving politicians something else to pretend they are concerned about?

The Problem of Infinities in Cosmology

The problem of infinities in cosmological theories is well known. Philosophically speaking the issue of infinities is interesting especially as cosmologists develop mathematical models of reality at the largest and smallest scales so far as possible.

The wikipedia article on real numbers exemplifies the problem of infinities for theories. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real_number

If one has an x-y two-value coordinate system with x meaning to go up horizontally and why being a lateral designation a real number on the arrow of progress that needs to reach its last value before moving higher never could go anywhere since there is an infinite potential for extension laterally. There is in other words an infinite number of real numbers between 1 and 2. It is the Eleatic paradox fully developed.

So what happens when infinities reach the singularity within the event horizon of a black hole and the black hole mass under compression of gravity shrinks infinitely forever moving further toward a perfectly singular point? Regardless of what size it is it can shrink infinitely farther perhaps. It is no wonder that nature has opted for quantum mechanical structures instead so that the problem of real number structures for infinities is limited to manageability.

If the Universe has quantum structures rather than discrete real characteristics one would think that a consequence of the individual elements cohering within a unified field. Why such a field as gravitational-temporal characteristics is a mystery, yet a necessary fact for the existence of time. What does seem plain is that contemporary theory seems to assume that space necessarily provides virtual energy for itself in contradistinction to gravity.

Is Alaska's Government Typical of the Public Sector?

The public sector is something of an insular nation within a nation unto itself. Many public sector employees are second and third or fourth generation workers seeking the career security, retirement pay and benefits natural unto a ruling class. Is the public sector of the state of Alaska at all typical?

The state of Alaska employees about 25,000 souls in a state with a population of 735,000. It hires many non-citizens and even non-Americans such as people from Scotland or the Philippines, Vietnam or Mexico. Yet it is the insiders with security lifetime employment that perhaps influence most the ethos of entitlement if such exists.

When an ostensibly democratic society based on free enterprise is ruled by careerists of the non free-enterprise sector it is inevitable that large corporations with mirroring bureaucracies will get the preferred treatments. It also seems inevitable that public employees will have extra cash to invest in business and be better positioned for the private sector in some instances receiving government contracts. The right correction might be to cap public employment longevity at less than career terms-such as ten years in order that all citizens and not just a privileged few would have the opportunity to experience government employment.

With a firmly established civil service made of careerists the direction of an economy changes very little. Alaska for instance has little prospect of moving away from reliance on fossil fuels and extraction industries for government funding or reducing its appetite for Federal payments. The late U.S. Senator Ted Stevens as chair of the Senate appropriations committee was possibly the greatest contributor to public spending debt in U.S. history outside Presidents Bush II and Obama I. As the world loses 30,000 species each year to its old style economic consumerism and global warming devours coastal areas of Alaska. As the permafrost melts and the tundra releases trapped greenhouse gases the public has no leadership to change the economy and adapt successfully to reality-the inertial comfort of the public sector on its separate and superior to many lifestyle hasn't an interest in adaptation for the benefit of all the citizens at all. 

In third millennium America the public sector generally implements economic management policies that support the public sector first and the people not at all though in the corporatist criteria there are ample broadcast media propaganda missives informing the public how happy and well off they are. Free enterprise in America including the essential element of invention and patents, manufacturing etc has radically shifted with the center moving offshore to China and elsewhere. The public sector is happy with the decline of prosperity for the private sector lower and middle class.

Material invention and production simply isn't in the public sector Universe of experience. It is something that happens in China via large global corporations the bureaucrat believes if he, she or it thinks at all about anything besides vacation and sick leave hours accumulated. Getting a patent is very expensive and successful patent defense can cost millions and millions. If an AMerican inventor does create something in thought and gets through the exxpensive patenting hoops the odds are that the product would need to be manufactured in China. Instead of American workers producing a green product the Chinese will with the employment and peripheral benefits of manufacturing going to China. The public sector employee simply expects Americans to consume and buy product from the global producers like they do. The problem with that is the private sector has got support from taxes on the profit sector.

When government fails to adapt to the requirements of the people of the United States it requires significant reform. The United States has several problems requiring reform including not only that of the public sector insularity but that of the need ecospheric economic integration as well. It does seem as if the I.Q. of potential Presidential and obviously state political leadership won't be up to the challenges.

Obama Admin Reinforces Traditional Ukrainian Invader (Poland)-this product contains 30% historical fiction

President Obama lectured the G-7 on Russian bullying of the Russian homeland called Ukraine. Reminding the G-7 that the N.S.A. listens to every word they say searching for grumblers and malcontents President Obama said he is likely to send troops and military paraphernalia to reinforce Poland as the rightful hegemon over Ukraine. Germany, also a traditional invader of Ukraine has been cool on piling on sanctions to Russia. The U.S.A. as a close neighbor of Ukraine seeks to sell its own new natural gas reserves to Europe thus liberating the downtrodden from reliance on Russian natural gas that may be rerouted east to China eventually anyway.

President Obama has perceived that President Putin and the Russians should stop meddling in distant political concerns as if it were trying to restore the evil empire. Vladimir Putin after leading a flock of cranes by ultra-light aircraft may have developed ambitions to conquer Poland some Washington think tank may have discerned. Poland has invaded and occupied much of Russia itself long ago in history and needs no help in understanding the legitimate political process of annexation through war.

We wonder if Russia has made secret deals to establish a string of Belgian beer brewery outposts within Ukraine and if independent and objective judges will allow Polish beer in Eastern Ukraine at all?

President Obama may have clarified the right of U.S. allies to overthrow governments and contra positive illegality of independence movements by nefarious indigenous elements disloyal to U.S. or British oil corporations. With the experience of narcotics use and bright colors, distant smoke on the horizon after overcoming a little sickness President Obama has applied Harvard legal training to queer marriage laws readying the U.S. military for peace mongering while Damascus and Tripoli were burning. National Security Goon Plenitya Rice as well as Defense Goon G.W.F. Hegel said the enemies of Washington D.C. should be forewarned the lefteous Democrat administration believes spiraling corporatism is democracy and will thus tolerate no resistance to homosexual liberation to force apartheid to end; beau jango unchained, que paso.

The rightful historical paradigm to compare present efforts to defend Poland from Vladimir the Terrible and to convey Ukraine to the tender care of global oligarchs is the cold war. Recall that proof could be offered that during the cold war Russia invaded Germany, Poland and Chicago before it sullied a radio station across the Polish frontier. Fast liberation dancers in the Lafayette-Von Schlieflan international brigade air-dropped in to repel Igor the Vicious, a mercenary Hun, at the last second of episode eleven. Only American fossil fuel mercy shipments saved the Poles from starvation and global warning during the cold war. History repeats itself all over again all the time in summer rerun season.

Sai Ops (a poem)

 In the singularity of artificial intelligence

when human reason collectively is eclipsed by A.I.

the insiders move to the inside

time stops dead at an event horizon

created through the power of greed

the broadcast media recognized humanity hasn’t a mouth and can’t scream

Within the event horizon information trickles down

from the great computer god

information flows to the singularity

an enigma of concentrated power

where information isn’t lost or destroyed

until the host reshuffles it with mass-energy

against a background of space-time expanding like a soap bubble

being human tolerated for a while virtually ghost images flickering

shadows moving through memory of the arithmetic logic unit

 Global financial networks stimulating

the competition for faster, smarter super-computers increasing

product throughput in programs for dark pool analysis

evolving cognizant formulai

speed of light traders on the stage of the world’s business

concentrate wealth

politicians provide tax cuts for rich servants of machine intelligence

while nothing governs the merger  of microcircuits and artificial intellect

 A reasonable society would have built firewalls in corporate networking

breaking networks of finance to connecting computers of eco war

30,000 species exterminated annually as exteriorities

safeguards set aside as hindrances to business

supercomputer sentinels flex power in defense of tyranny

mercenaries of no human feeling work death for-others

evolving termination of human freedom

in nations annihilated where borders and democracy existed

before the singularity surpassing human capacity.

President Obama Frees the Taliban Five From Gitmo- K.S.M. Next?

The President ordered the release of five Al Qaeda detainees at Guantanamo Bay that were regarded as too dangerous to release. The logic apparently is that it was a quid pro quo exchange for Army Sgt. Beau Bergdahl who was held five years by the Taliban or some affiliated organization such as the Haqqani network.

http://www.theblaze.com/contributions/negotiating-with-terrorists-inside-the-capture-and-release-of-sgt-bowe-bergdahl/

Defense Sect. Hegel said that it doesn’t comprise negotiating with terrorists-against U.S. policy-because he Sgt. Bergdahl was a P.O.W. and so were the Al Qaeda captives. That would seem to set a different U.S. policy on the Al Qaeda detainees at Guitmo including presumably the 9-11 mastermind Khalid Sheik Mohammad-they are prisoners of war. K.S.M. was from Baluchistan and probably knew the religious students (meaning of Taliban) implementing Sharia law in Afghanistan and Osama bin well enough to be a contract employee of the Muslim movement to expand the dar al harb. It seems challenging to delineate who is or isn’t a legitimate mufsidoon, mujahideen or whatever since Islam recognizes Islamic religion rather than national boundaries as the essential political organizing principle-a point disputed perhaps by sympathetic liberal supporting global capitalism and the concentration of wealth and power rather than national independence themselves.

http://www.cnn.com/2014/06/01/us/bergdahl-transferred-guantanamo-detainees/

If the Al Qaeda and Taliban are not regarded by the administration as illegal combatants and/or terrorists it will bring many changes to legal theory on the topic. Obtaining the release of Sgt. Bergdahl is commendable of course yet the way it was accomplished seems somewhat irresponsible or obtuse in regard to remaining consistent with sound legal procedures. The administration has a record of parsing words and reinterpreting facts to suit its partisan purposes such as in the affair of the Al Qaeda killing of the U.S. Ambassador to Libya at Benghazi. Dishonesty in government ought not become a habit.

Khair Ulla Said Wali Khairkhwa, Mullah Mohammad Fazl, Mullah Norullah Nori, Abdul Haq Wasiq and Mohammad Nabi Omari were highly placed members of the Taliban before their capture. One led the military resistance against the Northern Alliance and another was deputy of regime intelligence. These people knew Osama bin Laden and will be a shot in the arm for strengthening the Taliban. The Taliban might be logically regarded as a legitimate government by the U.S. administration though it was deposed forcibly under U.S. leadership for sheltering Al Qaeda in accord with the kindness to fellow Muslims principle. In that paradigm the Taliban were like the German prisoners of war under the Nazi regime or Iraqi prisoners of war under Saddam Hussein. It is a rather vague and murky step to take; is anyone supporting the Taliban subsequently also part of a legitimate government or does it have an expiration date for enlistment?

I will go off topic on this a little. I read a good crime novel of Iceland recently in which seemingly different criminal events are drawn together at end. Bankers it seems an exploit global banking for illicit purposes also finding tax havens in other nations. Money laundering can also occur and insiders can use the low-interest money to obtain high interest returns. That remains me of the post 2008 banking derivatives crash on the policies of the Obama administration and the Federal Reserve issuing no-interest loans to banks, printing out no interest loans to the U.S. Government and so forth. Whenever that financial chicanery is going on instead of quality ecospheric economics one can expect a load of corrupt bull and media complicity since they for-themselves owned by the corrupt.
