How It Works
Since 1999, banks have been allowed to use commercial deposits and assets as fuel for securities trading on the derivatives market.
Because commercial and speculative assets are so heavily comingled, the government is forced to protect the assets of banks making risky bets through near perpetual bailouts and purchasing of toxic debt.
It was the derivatives bubble that blew up the system and bankrupted the US banks in the 2007-2008 crash.

What does Kirstine Stewart know about the future of the CBC that the rest of us don’t?
Why does anyone leave a job as the most powerful and influential media executive in the country to sell ads for Twitter Canada? And why leave immediately, without prior notice?
Ms. Stewart has spent seven years as a senior executive at the CBC, hired by the much-maligned Richard Stursberg to head up CBC television. She wound up replacing her boss as vice-president of all English language...

In the grand old days of colonialism, European nations used all sorts of elaborate excuses for occupying the fabulously wealthy territories of Africa and Asia. Rudyard Kipling called it the “white man’s burden” to transmit (European) culture and civilization to the unwashed natives. If the trains and other instruments of progress happened to cart all their resources to the northern hemisphere, well, that was an unfortunate side-effect of entering modern history.

--- The kernel of the anti-racist argument, as it applies to Israel-Palestine, is brutally simple. An expressly "Jewish" state forced into a multi-ethnic region is, itself, violent criminal racism as plain as it canever get. End of argument. The appearance of a complex argument - or any argument at all - is THE Zionist trick, and it must be dismissed, just as any dodges would be dismissed regarding any other case of openly-declared racist violence.
