Economic Deficient Solution Last Monday, Donald Trump went on CNN and said the most forbidden words in the language of American economics: “You never have to default because you [can] print the money.” You notice I put “can” in brackets which means he didn’t say that, exactly, but he meant to say it. But now let’s hear exactly what he did say: [insert CNN] It’s true; for a nation which has retained the money power as an essential ingredient to its sovereignty, default is never necessary. That’s one of the main problems with the EU and its Euro. Nation states completely lose the power over controlling their money. However, to an American-trained economist – printing money is the worst of heretical notions. Why? Because they believe that it will surely lead to hyperinflation – Zimbabwe – scenarios. However, according to my friend, Prof. Steve Hanke of Johns Hopkins University, there have been less than 50 hyperinflations in world history, yet hundreds of incidences of deflations – better known as depressions. Hyperinflations are the rare exception in economic history, never the rule. At the root of this argument is who should control the quantity of money in a sovereign nation. There are only two alternatives: #1 the sovereign nation state, or #2 the banks. The truth about our economy is 97% of the U.S. money supply is created by banks – only 3% is actually created by the government. How do banks create money? When a bank makes a loan they only have 10% of the money, the rest they have the legal right to just simply make up out of thin air – and then charge us interest on it! However, the U.S. Constitution only gives the money power to the people, through their elected representatives in Congress. In fact, so basic is the power to control the nation’s money, that it was the primary reason America fought for its freedom against the British – for the freedom to create its own money. So why should we even allow a national debt? We shouldn’t – in fact no government that claims to be sovereign should allow it. Why should a government borrow money from banks when it has a duty to create it without the interest - or control - that borrowing brings? Do you know how much interest we pay on the national debt today? It’s about 450 billion dollars a year. This is insanity! This entire national debt crisis is a total flim-flam job perpetrated on the American people to keep this steady stream of debt income flowing to the banks – the biggest of all big corporations. So, simply by using the phrase “we can print our money”, Trump is letting the cat out of the bag that there is another way to get out of this economic mess that not only America is in, but virtually every other nation as well. The good news for President Trump is there are many good alternatives for ending the national debt – which is the essential first step in preventing a future economic collapse. My old friend Ellen Brown summarized several alternatives in an article she published last week – probably her most succinct and impactful article to date. http://www.truthdig.com/report/item/print_the_money_trumps_reckless_proposal_echoes_franklin_and_lincoln_201605 I won’t step on her article by rephrasing it, but I will add another solution that I believe gives us the most bang for our buck while minimizing the risk of upsetting economic systems and markets, which traditionally hate uncertainty. I say pay down the National Debt using America’s oldest form of paper money, U.S. Notes – as opposed to Federal Reserve Notes. U.S. Notes came into being at the hands of Abraham Lincoln to allow him to win the civil war. It was money issued by the government for the benefit of all, as opposed to Bank Note money - issued by the banks, which only benefit the banking corporations. These red-sealed dollar bills are still a valid form of currency in the United States. However, since no new notes have been issued since 1971, they are increasingly rare to find in circulation. So, the solution to America’s debt problem is very simple, reissue U.S. notes and pay off the National Debt. However flooding the market with 20 trillion dollars worth of U.S. Notes would be inflationary. So guess what? We won’t do it the stupid way. We’ll do it the smart way – gradually introduce them as the debt comes due over a period of years. Fortunately for Mr. Trump the vast majority of our national debt comes due in less than 8 years – two terms of the presidency. Approximately 54% of this debt must be paid in 3 years or less.

According to the New York Post, Chris Christie has told friends and staffers that he will eventually be replacing Rense Preibus in his position as Chief of Staff at the White House. Christie spokesman Brian Murray said the rumors were absolutely untrue. Trump told the Wall Street Journal last month: “… at some point, we’re going to do something with Chris.” However, the White also has denied the story that it has offered Christie a position. On Thursday, a Bergen County, New Jersey judge decided that there is probable cause to proceed against Gov. Christie in the Bridgegate scandal. However, this judge overruled a previous ruling by another judge, so the future remains in doubt. Brian Murray, Christie’s press secretary, called the new ruling: “… a complete non-event. This judge … intentionally ignored the earlier ruling by Assignment Judge [Bonnie] Mizdol. The judge is violating the law, pure and simple.” Last Tuesday, Christie and his wife, Mary Pat, joined Trump at the White House for lunch, causing widespread speculation about a White House job for Christie. However, after the meeting, Christie said that the subject of jobs never came up.  Now accepting CloakCoin: CFKDGbB8pVYoF9tT11ZsWw8J5XiDhiX1DT and BitCoin: 15Ucde9jSR7UezG8w4Lgk3jMhiCebc4veG Visit our website at http://www.billstill.com Considered by informed insiders’ as the ultimate resource for surviving economic or financial collapse/crash and attaining the unvarnished truth about the latest US and world news, current events in Washington, and today’s United States political climate. Please Like, Comment & Share.

Donald Trump is over Iowa, despite how creepy Ted Cruz continues to try to portray him. On CNN with Anderson Cooper this evening, Trump said that the Iowa results: “…were 2 days ago. I’ve moved on to New Hampshire now.” What does remain is that none of the TV news shows, none of the newspapers have talked about the pink elephant in the room – that a self-admitted CIA PSYOPS expert is employed by the Cruz campaign to manage his social-media deception operations. No, the ONLY place you have heard about this strange connection is through a few tweets by well-placed sources in the Trump campaign – or the Still Report. PSYOPS means psychological operations. It’s nothing new. The U.S. military has used it since at least World War I. But it was developed with our money to be used against the enemies of the United States – and here’s a flash for you Ted Cruz – We’re not the enemy! Here is the Army PSYOPS emblem – Persuade, Change, Influence. Anyone interested in spy stuff will find the Wikipedia article entitled “Psychological Operations (United States)” absolutely fascinating. It has not yet been determined who tipped off CNN to run the story implying that Dr. Carson was leaving the race, but here is exactly what they initially said on air that started all this - courtesy of the Feb. 4th edition of the O’Reilly Factor: [insert O’Reilly] Well, go back and compare. That was not what was said. [insert reply] So CNN is simply lying to the public and they refuse to admit they made a mistake. But in addition, they are stonewalling on the question of who tipped them off. It could be possible that CNN is willing to take some heat on this issue to protect their source. There is only one obvious source at this point, and that is a former CIA PSYOPS expert by the name of Dan Gabriel. Gabriel bragged in his twitter site that he specializes in: “insurgencies, foreign and domestic.” When I put this story out on Feb. 2, I predicted that shortly after I published the story – Still Report 569 – Cruz Using Hi-Tech Dirty Tricksters – that Gabriel’s twitter site would either immediately be scrubbed or deleted all together. Well, that did come true within minutes of SR 569 hitting YouTube. Now, something does remain at that address, but it looks completely differently than it did before my exposure. To see what it looks like now, go to @danpgabriel In any case, we may never know if Gabriel is still working for Cruz or not - or whether he has simply been fired for bragging about his CIA connections – something strongly frowned upon by intelligence professionals. But what we do know was that Gabriel was in the thick of what apparently morphed into a Cruz operation to steal delegates from Dr. Carson - and it was very effective. We know from speaking with Carson people that many caucusers got mad at Carson for not telling them in advance that he was withdrawing from the race. Many immediately went over to caucus with the Cruz camp, and are probably still pretty confused about what happened – unless they are watching these reports. But one thing is for sure, the Cruz campaign is driven by big money and is the most scientifically manipulative of the electoral process in U.S. history. FoxNews – despite Megyn Kelly’s behavior – is still the best game in TV news. Bill O’Reilly and FoxNews media analyst Bernie Goldberg - who serves as the in-house ombudsman for the network – broke down the media manipulation in an excellent way last night, Feb. 5th: [ insert up to “that was a long time”] Yeah, it was a long time! Why, because the voting was going on – right then! Both Goldberg and O’Reilly then finish up the segment by agreeing that Trump was right and the Cruz dirty tricks campaign may have cost him the election. [pickup insert] Good for O’Reilly. He is using a huge television network to DETERMINE THE TRUTH, instead of merely playing along. That’s just, plain good reporting. 2 thumbs up -- in this case, anyway. Now, I am trying to collect all the relevant data on this incident for my own benefit, but then decided to share that collection with anyone who wants it.

I’m going to run this for the rest of the 2016 election. I’m still reporting from on politics. Good day.
