Fed's Bernanke Props Up EU With Loan-sharking Scheme

U.S. Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke has reached out to Europe in what is being mischaracterized across America as just another European bailout. Bernanke realizes the U.S. Congress would never allow the Federal Reserve to put the U.S. Economy at further risk by directly bailing out the European Socialists, in which we are already exposed to the tune of owning 20% of the IMF debt-fund, which is basically bankrupt. The EU announced that they would be increasing the cash flow to prevent several countries from going insolvent a short while back, in hinting that China and Japan would agree to buy up more European debt. The only problem there,  is that China refused to buy into that scheme without seeing solid austerity measures put into place, which the EU refused, or was incapable of doing.  Simply put,  Europe was a very bad credit risk, and China turned them down which was very embarrassing to the EU grand banking manipulators, who had already announced more cash was on the way.  

Understanding Bernanke’s Loan-Sharking Scheme

Bernanke then decided to play the role of loan-shark king, in lowering interest rates for dollar swap lines to the ECB (European Central Bank) along with cooperation from four other major central banks (Canada, England, Japan, and Switzerland). Bernanke is attaching the European debt crisis exposure to the banking systems of the other 4 country’s mentioned above in a move to cloud the fact that he is lending more money ( and collecting lower interest rates) to the European Socialists Union, which should actually have been declared bankrupt over a year ago. Does anyone believe for one minute that Canada, Japan, Switzerland, and England are going to put their economies at risk by buying into the debt-disaster of the EU, the IMF, the ECB and the EFSF? Of course not. The EFSF, or the European Financial Stability Fund ( boy is that an oxymoron if ever there was one) has yet to explain just what their role will play in all of this.

Yet globalists paint this scheme in a rosy hue by declaring that the European Central Bank, which has been reluctant to intervene to stop the growing crisis on its own continent, was joined in the decision by the Federal Reserve, the Bank of England and the central banks of Canada, Japan and Switzerland. Central banks will make it cheaper for commercial banks in their countries to borrow dollars, the dominant currency of trade. Just what effects will this have on the value of the U.S. dollar, long-term? But while it should ease borrowing for banks, it does little to solve the underlying problem of mountains of government debt in Europe, leaving markets still waiting for a permanent fix. What is that term Obama and Congress love to toss at the American public so often today? That’s right, they use the “We can’t continue to kick the can down the road” analogy constantly, yet this is exactly what the EU and Bernanke are condoning with this latest move.  Where do Germany and France stand on all of this?

The stock markets rallied upon Bernanke’s announcement of the Fed lowering its dollar-swap interest rate, and China’s easing of it’s monetary policy for the first time in several years by reducing bank reserve requirements by 50 basis points. This may be the first of several Chinese easing moves, and it certainly added to the stock surge. Again, take note that China is not willing to buy into the EU debt-disaster, but instead slightly lowers their bank reserve mandates. Also missing from this equation are the two biggest economic elephants in the middle of the EU, France and Germany. Simply put, after Deutshe Bank of Germany received massive bailout funds from the IMF, EFSF, and the ECB schemes that prevented them from suffering massive losses due to the previous buying of EU debt , and they now refuse to take the risks to provide any funding to bailout Greece, Italy or anyone else in the EU, including the newly exposed and problematic French debt-crisis.

The bottom line here is that this is all just another batch of phony solutions to a rapidly-expanding European debt-crisis that was created by the Euro-Zone Globalists, and which is heavily rooted in anti-capitalistic, utopian Socialism and the ever-present denial of the realities of their irresponsible actions.  Nothing has been solved here, much to the dismay of Ben Bernanke, who actually believes that this latest loan-sharking scheme will fool Congress into somehow thinking that Bernanke waved his magic wand and thus prevented the European insolvency that China now sees as inevitable. ( as is proven in their refusal to further buy into the European Socialists massive debt problem nightmare)  Are we to believe that the ECB can just write a trillion dollar check to further prop up the EU’s fast-growing number of bankrupt countries? On top of that, how can the IMF expect to be allowed to borrow another $800 billion from the ECB to give those same bankrupt countries even more money? The bottom line is that they can’t, simply because the money just isn’t there, especially with Germany and France now refusing to participate in any further bailouts without the creation of a New EU treaty. Merkel and Sarkozy have made Europe into a Communist collective that was built on the Socialistic catch-phrase of  denying protectionism, or the rights of European countries to control their own economies through implementing sound fiscal policies. Now they want out of the communist collectivism that they have created to protect their own countries from falling off of the debt-cliff that Italy, Greece, Spain, and other EU infected countries are now on the edge of.  For the proof of Merkel and Sarkozy’s stealth demand for German and French “protectionism” from the European debt-crisis they helped to create,  check out this article neatly titled,  EU Planning a New Treaty. Oh what a tangled web we weave, when first, we practice to deceive.  Sir Walter Scott, 1771 – 1832.
