Way Too Many Fucktards

I mean Grasshoppers. 

Winter is coming. 

Plan accordingly.

Manic Empire: Third World Democracy

Violence is a cash money business. And killing foreigners is a tradition. It helps them find a better life. In Europe...

"Mass killing is like shopping on Thanksgiving. It's a tradition"

"Another problem solved"

Syrian nation building: By Lockheed Martin
"Enjoy your new life in Germany. Thank us later"

Obamanation: "Third World Democracy"
Picture perfect impulse wave

"Rome seeks its own glory, wars against other peoples to subjugate them, revels in material existence, lives off the work of slave labor, allows many to die of poverty and starvation, and promotes entertaining circuses and gladiator spectacle. "

When Prices Go To Zero, Jobless "Consumers" Will Benefit

The age of "free trade" aka. corporate arbitrage, is over. Don't tell anyone, it's still a secret. Why spoil the surprise?

When prices go to zero:


Profits will go to zero

Fake wealth will go to zero

Official "Unemployment" will go to zero

Employment will go to zero

Econo-dunces who actually believe there exists an entity called "consumer" will be bankrupt

And the streets will burn like the fourth of July

All because "free trade" is not free. But don't tell anyone, because they haven't figured it out yet...

Game of dunces visualized:
"I thought it was odd that everyone retired at the same time"

"includes both employed (employees and self-employed) and unemployed people, but not the economically inactive, such as pre-school children, school children, students and pensioners."

"At the end, there comes a generation that is so fucking dumb, that they lay themselves off for special dividends"

Prepare for RPM Rapid Price Movement aka. Flash Crash 2.0

"Never put all of your eggs in one basket and then drop it from a 10 story building..."

When the large caps rolled over in August, the Flash Crash followed. This time they're even more overbought, for maximum downside momentum...

Dumbfuck fake belief of the day:

"All of the profit decline is from energy companies...all other sectors are doing fine..."

WSJ: Oct. 25, 2015:

"Profit and revenue are falling in tandem for the first time in six years"

"Sales are on pace to fall 4%—the third straight quarterly decline. The last time sales and profits fell in the same quarter was in the third period of 2009."
