jason bermas
Hello, thank you gentlemen.
unidentified
Um, one of my big questions, what about the possibility of collecting copper for those of us that do not have enough money to invest in silver and gold?
bob chapman
Well, the government, if you collect pennies, the government says that it's illegal to destroy them.
But if you go out and collect copper, you've got to remember that it's a commodity and it can range anywhere from 62 dollars a pound to 4 dollars and 20 cents a pound.
So, there's a risk factor in there.
And if we have a, eventually, have a deflationary depression, the value of commodities would eventually fall.
jason bermas
And Bob, let me say this.
I refuse to believe that anybody out there can't get involved in silver.
If you go to McDonald's, you're gonna spend more money on feeding yourself and your wife and your kid on a few value meals than you would on one silver ounce coin.
That's the reality.
Anybody can get into silver, Bob.
I just don't believe it.
bob chapman
Well, you're right.
And it's much easier than copper, that's for sure.
jason bermas
Yeah, I mean, copper is $62 by the pound at the best.
Is that a joke?
Can you even imagine it?
Folks, we had a great show.
We got Alex Jones coming up in about five minutes.

And your calls are coming up for those that are holding.
Max, good to have you back so soon.
unidentified
Yeah, man.
max keiser
Great to be back with you, Alex.
alex jones
All right, my friend, you've got the floor for the balance of this segment.
Lay out where we are, what's happening, what's going on in Europe, what's going on with Brown stepping down, Merkel in trouble, saying the banks are criminal, what's happening in the markets.
A trillion's not enough.
They need more.
What is happening right now?
unidentified
All righty, well, let's talk first about Greece.
max keiser
Now, George Papandreou, the leader in Greece, he made a statement yesterday over the weekend that he's now going to investigate what role the Wall Street banks played in destabilizing his country, his economy.
And this is through some back-channel analysis.
communication between myself and folks in Greece, and I've been trying to steer them in the right direction, telling them this isn't a market problem, it's not a market failure, but it's fraud that's been perpetrated primarily by Wall Street banks.
And my message got through, and he said yesterday that he hears words like a need for transparency and there's fraud, and now he's going to take a stand against the bankers.
Now, historically, when anybody has taken, anyone in politics has taken a stand against the bankers, they immediately put themselves into quite a bit of danger, because the track record, if you go, even if you read John Perkins'book, Confessions of an Economic Hitman, whenever somebody, a leader of a country, steps up against the bankers, they put themselves into grave danger.
Now, this would be the first time, really, that a major Western economy is taking on the Wall Street banks, but the people in Greece are out in the streets, and the leadership is responding.
So he's making a statement.
So we're going to see, because there's ample proof that the Wall Street banks purposefully crashed the Greek economy for short-term capital gains.
So that's the first thing that's happening.
in Iceland.
You know, we made a film in Iceland about the collapse of the corona, the collapse of the Icelandic economy, and I've gotten pretty friendly with a lot of the legislators up in Iceland.
I'm proposing to them that they introduce some new economic citizenship so that anyone in the world who wants to escape, for example, a U.S.
citizen that wants to escape the tyranny of the U.S.
can buy a passport for Iceland and to make it competitive.
So it only costs $20,000.
Right now there's only two territories or countries that offer economic Nevis St.
Kitts and Dominica, they're both in the Bahamas.
They cost $200,000 and $75,000, respectively.
I'm saying that Iceland, to be competitive, they can offer economic citizenship for $20,000, and they could get, if they get 200,000 or so or half a million citizens from the U.S.
to renounce U.S.
citizenship and move to Iceland, they could raise $10 billion immediately to help recapitalize their country, and they are talking about rewriting their constitution in ways that are going to favor free speech and freedom of the press.
Alright, let me stop you.
We have these pockets of resistance and pockets of strength from the work that you're doing directly and the work I've been doing and now these people are starting to respond because the global insurrection against the banking occupation is on!
alex jones
Okay, the global insurrection is on.
I want to interject this and get your take on it and I want to back you up here and have you continue.
This is French news agency.
Bankers jailed, sued as Iceland seeks culprits for crisis.
Then a week ago we saw the Merkel headline where she called, you know, it criminal banks causing this, though she's bought and paid for by them.
So isn't that the danger with the Greek leader and others is that they see the headlights of the train coming, the global insurrection against the banking cartel.
They know they can't survive.
Unless they put it into a process and then maybe Goldman Sachs or JP Morgan will flush down the toilet some mid-level trader, you know, on a sub-issue like Timberwolf with Goldman Sachs.
I mean, isn't there a danger of that?
Because I've been all over Greek radio and newspapers as well saying, arrest the bankers, you know, arrest Goldman Sachs.
And so you've been putting the pressure on, many others have been putting the pressure on.
So that's a great idea.
Secondarily, how you brought up Expatriates.
We have the New York Times saying record numbers of wealthy people who aren't globalists leaving because they say this is the last year to get your money out.
Just fleeing en masse.
I'd rather flee to somewhere like Iceland, but I don't even have enough money, I don't think, like you said, if it was $200,000.
I think I'm going to stay here and go down with the ship.
But for people that do want to escape and be around like-minded people.
But what about the arrests that they're reporting in Iceland?
max keiser
That's right.
One of the bankers in London From the economy is now being prosecuted and it's funny because London is where a lot of these guys go to get because the hedge fund industry and the banking industry laws This
one is actively going after this guy and it's funny because in the indictment they We're
good. Are they going to be pressured to back down?
And what we saw last Thursday, on May 6th, was the first unequivocal domestic financial tariff attack in America.
You know, there was a bill in Washington to break up the big banks.
They dropped the market by a thousand points.
The lawmakers pulled away.
They decided not to pass that law to break up the big banks.
alex jones
They also dropped the real lot at the Fed and put a fake one in, according to Ron Paul.
max keiser
Yeah, so they've got this weapon, which is they can crash a market.
And I'm looking at today's news, and you see now that the financial terrorists are not shy about threatening to blow up people's economies and markets.
For example, in today's news, Morgan Stanley said that if Europe doesn't engage in full-blown quantitative easing, which means that they would buy back their own bonds, which basically would mean to destroy the euro, then Morgan Stanley threatens Europe with a 1987 crash.
Look this up.
Morgan Stanley's full-blown quantitative easing may be needed to save Europe, or else we'll see a 1987-style crash.
unidentified
So they're threatening Europe with a 1987 crash.
max keiser
That's Morgan Stanley.
A Wall Street bank is threatening the entire eurozone.
Here's another headline about KPMG and PricewaterhouseCoopers are now considering whether or not they should get back into the business of the rating agencies.
You know, the Moody's, S&P, and Fitch, those rating agencies that gave their blessing to all the structured products and collateralized debt obligations that turn out to be phony?
Well, now all these consulting firms who are also equally culpable in this nightmare collapse of the economy say, well, you know, those guys aren't good enough at it.
We're going to get into the business.
So this is like really just exactly the same thing.
The fact that they can, with a straight face, say that they're going to get into the rating agency business when they themselves are some of the most crooked organizations in the U.S.
economy, KPMG and Pricewaterhouse is quite laughable.
Here you have General Motors today saying that they want to get back into the financing business because of the shortage of subprime lending is holding back sales.
Now, General Motors getting into the financing business is exactly how the economy crashed to begin with, because they got out of selling cars and they got into the loan sharking business.
Then the economy crashed.
Then the government gave them billions.
And as a thank you to the taxpayer for getting them out of the hole, they're saying now we want to get back into the loan sharking business.
unidentified
That only took 12 months.
alex jones
We're not going to build cars.
We're going to move our factories to Asia, to Brazil, and to China, and to Eastern Europe, and then all we're going to do with your bailout money here is loan it back to you, the American people.
max keiser
At usurious rates, as a loan shark, and we're trying to get you deeper into debt as we possibly can.
And so they're trying to restart the entire cycle again until they blow up, and then they'll require more of a bailout.
And of course, this just perpetuates this move down into what we would call the casino gulag state, where the value of the purchasing power, the wages and the savings, and the purchasing power of everybody in the U.S.
keeps continuously degrades and drops and disintegrates.
And you have just an enormous cesspool where once a fine country used to reside.
unidentified
you Thank you.
alex jones
Well said.
I've got a bunch of questions for you in the next short segment, then we're going to get into other issues you think are important to cover, and then take phone calls.
One of my questions is, will the U.S. market collapse?
When will it collapse?
If it does, and how will it collapse?
That's all coming up with Max Keiser.

Max Keiser is our guest, maxkeiser.com.
Your call is coming up in the next segment.
Max, I talked to one of my neighbors, I talked to other people that are somewhat successful in business in Austin.
And they say, well, I'm not in the stock market, so I don't care what these big banks are doing.
And I don't understand this yuppie, pre-programmed arrogance where you try to warn people that you know, and they act like it's weak to even care or even be involved in society as long as they think they're doing okay.
I mean, everyone is connected to the stock market.
Everyone is connected to the currencies.
Everyone is connected through taxes with these trillions of dollars of, quote, bailouts used for bonuses.
I mean, what do you call that mindset where people don't understand the incredible magnitude of what's happening in global markets right now and where this is leading us?
unidentified
Well, you can explain it in the following way.
max keiser
The average experience of the average American is masked.
to a large degree by the fact that most people in America are unaware of the benefits accrued to them because the world reserve currency is the US dollar.
So there is no radical currency risk that you see in other countries and the currency collapses that you see in other countries.
And it also means that things like gasoline are incredibly cheap in America relative to other countries.
Now what is gonna happen, People on your show are talking about, and what I've been talking about, and what I see over here in Europe, is that the U.S.
dollar as reserve currency is going to be replaced with a new global currency.
And that at that moment, then, Americans will experience what everyone else in the world experiences, which is radical currency risk and all kinds of bank shenanigans, including paying state, local, federal, and world tax.
Because, of course, the world currency, you need a global central bank who's going to charge a global tax.
And then Americans will wake up and they'll say, oh, my God, you know, it's happening right now because the special drawing rights that are being used right now as part of this huge reconfiguration of the European banking system and the trillion dollar that the U.S.
gave Europe to unwind their bank's risky policy.
Part of that is the introduction of another $300 billion in a special drawing right.
So the special drawing rights are creeping into the global currency system.
At some point, they will be comparable to other major currencies in terms of the amount traded and the scope and the influence.
And then you'll start to see things quoted in special drawing rights.
And they'll normalize the special drawing right.
And then it'll be announced that as part of Brenton Woods, too, they're going to reconfigure the global currency grid.
unidentified
The U.S.
max keiser
dollar will be devalued by 50 percent like it was in the 30s.
Gold will be upwardly valued to $5,000 or $10,000 an ounce.
And then people in the U.S.
will have a deferred awakening.
Because since World War II, they've really had the benefit of – they've had the World War II dividend, which is stretched out for $60,000.
And they just expect...
way way way too late to do do anything about it.
So I can understand why people are in a coma when it comes to understanding the position of the U.S.
relative to the rest of the world.
And I can also anticipate that when this thing finally makes the break, there's gonna be an incredible gasp of horror that'll just go from coast to coast.
There will be absolute shock.
How did this happen?
unidentified
But it's happening for all the reasons you've been talking about for the last 10 years.
alex jones
And the banks will say, the big mega banks will say, don't worry, we're going to save you again with SDRs, we're transcending national currencies and we'll just make up to the power of infinity whatever amount of fiat money we want and you're going to pay us taxes on the right to use this new global cashless society system and they'll just bypass the three global regional currencies that the Trilateral Commission talked about in the 1970s,
max keiser
correct? Basically, correct.
In other words, with the introduction of the Special Drawing Right, they will have another way to add another layer to this global Ponzi scheme where all of the U.S. dollar-denominated debts will be re-securitized.
Most of the debt will be off the balance sheet.
Some of it will be included in the new SDR, but the SDR will be loaded up with more debt than even the U.S. dollar, and the result will be We're

This is Alex Jones with five good reasons you should consider buying a solar power generator.
Number one, new climate legislation could easily double or triple your electric bill.
Number two, our new energy czar wants to control how much power your electric company allows you to have.
It's true.
Total government control of electricity in the name of smart grid technology is coming.
Number 3. In some areas of the country, the power grid is dangerously overloaded.
And now, new socialist legislation is only compounding the problem.
Number 4. Dangerous weather is always a threat to local grids.
Every year, thousands of families lose their power from weather-related outages.

Okay, going back to Max Keiser at MaxKeiser.com quickly.
You basically answered my next question in the last segment, but in layman's...
simple terms.
Yes. Do you see Asia plunging next, or how far will Europe plunge?
Do you think the Eurozone is going to break up?
The Germans are saying that major German newspapers are calling for a Deutsch-Reich-Zone that only has the richest countries in Europe that are part of it.
So what do you see happening with the Euro?
I mean, I know you can't guess this exactly, but you've been very accurate in the past.
How do you see this unfolding?
Who do you see going down next?
When does this really start to hit the U.S.?
max keiser
Right. Well, as you say, I've been pretty good at framing this and predicting this.
What you have to understand is you've got a multi-trillion dollar hedge fund business.
You know, a hedge fund is just a fund that is not bound by any restrictions in terms of the types of bets that they can make and the leverage that they have at their availability.
And what they do is they go from currency to currency, and they ferret out which ones are the weakest.
They then scare the bejesus out of the folks.
They float rumors about the economic collapse.
They crash the economy.
They make a quick $100 billion or so, and then they move on.
And from the Eurozone, I think that they've beat up the Euro pretty good here in the last few weeks.
I think the next stop is the British pound.
The British pound, they've got a new government in Britain.
They're trying to bring in some reforms.
They're talking about bringing in banking reform.
So I think that next time we talk, we'll be talking about the tragic fall of the British pound.
They'll beat that up for a while.
And then they either will go back to Eurozone and attack the euro, or they may, you know, come back to the U.S.
because the U.S.
is always the currency that these guys know best.
They know how to crash it in the most efficient manner.
And it's always in their pocket.
They can always crash the dollar.
That's something they can always do for a quick buck.
But you can't do it 100% of the time.
You've got to take turns crashing different currencies at different times.
So I think, the way I see it, Yeah. But they use,
really, the yen, really, as what's called a funding currency.
In other words, they borrow in yen because it's so cheap, and they use that to go attack a country like the UK or the Eurozone.
So it depends on which country has a really weak currency.
They use that to borrow, and they go attack another country.
When I was in Reykjavik, right before that economy collapsed, I sat in the 101 hotel in the sushi bar, and I talked to some bankers from In about six months, we're going to attack Iceland, and we're going to crash the Icelandic Krona.
And they weren't shy about talking about it, and this is exactly what they did.
alex jones
Now, a few years later, they're finally getting around to putting some people And if we just continue to point out the Emperor's butt naked and wearing any golden outfit, like the little three-year-old in the Emperor's New Clothes parable.
In fact, guys, print me the Emperor's New Clothes parable.
I want to read that next hour on air.
If we just point out the obvious, it's going to implode.
Max, did you see Fox News, the New York Times, AFP, Reuters in the last month all come out with a psy-op and say, yes, the troops are helping grow the opium because if we don't grow it, Al-Qaeda will get the money.
I mean, Have you ever talked to Catherine Austen Fitz about this?
Yeah, the big red button.
max keiser
She's got an excellent, a lot of work on the CIA, Afghani opium crops.
And also, you know, a lot of these hedge funds that you read about, this came out during the savings and loan collapse.
They discovered that many of the hedge funds were actually backed by the government and CIA and other organizations.
So, and back in the 2008 crash, when Hank Paulson put the gun to Congress's head and said, "Give us $700 billion." were going to crash the economy.
A lot of people in Congress were actually short bank stocks.
They used an exchange-traded fund, which was making negative bets against bank stocks.
So those congressmen were actually making money as those bank stocks were collapsing.
So these guys are just fully invested in the collapse.
And that's why I call them suicide bankers, because they have a fundamentalist belief in capitalism as their religion, and they're willing to blow themselves up in the name of their religious belief in fanatical capitalism.
alex jones
What this?
max keiser
This? You're
alex jones
absolutely right.
Well said, Max Keiser, and they just continue to threaten.
Let's talk to Tom in Connecticut.
You're on the air.
unidentified
Hi, yeah, this is perfect what you're talking about, but they want to comment on something you said yesterday, Alex, and that was, you said that it was good that they were arresting the bankers in Iceland, but then you said it's okay, you know, we have the great local bankers down the street where you can get a loan for a car,
but private bankers are probably Let me say this,
alex jones
I mean I'm all for state banks, but that's still a bank, and it's not going to be able to compete if it doesn't have the fractional system, and this is a very complex issue, but Local banks, some are good, some are bad.
The point is, we don't want the mega six banks in the US, several others globally, but there's no more than ten, any way you slice it.
So just for simplicity, we don't want the mega ten banks to have the regulatory power to scoop up the smaller banks, because then we're really in trouble.
Max Keiser.
max keiser
In North Dakota, they have a banking system which is sound because they passed some laws to get rid of a lot of the abuses.
And Ellen Brown is a very fine journalist, has done a lot of work.
If you type in Ellen Brown in the search engine and search North Dakota banks, it is possible to run banks in an equitable, fair way.
And North Dakota, surprisingly, for people who probably don't know about this, they actually have some pretty decent banks because they have decided to not try to run with the wolves and to simply get in the very simple business of...
alex jones
But it's the same thing with Texas banks.
They're some of the wealthiest in the country.
And the Texas Banking Association has come out and said, we're not selling derivatives, we're not the big mega banks, they are dangerous.
And so that's important to be friendly with regional banks to be able to defeat the big banks.
And then later, if we want to change something at that level and fix abuses at the local level, I think it's great.
But Tom, finish your point.
unidentified
Yeah, well, that is excellent that Max brought up Ellen Brown in her book, The Web of Debt, in the Bank of North Dakota.
No, the Bank of North Dakota is a state-owned and operated bank.
It is true, sovereign money.
We need a sovereign monetary system, not a private debt money system, what we have now, where they have the power to create money.
They are like a mafia.
We have to realize that the private bankers of the world are like a global mafia, and we have to stand up to them like the The people of a village stand up to the mafia and run them out of town.
alex jones
I agree.
Tom, well said.
Absolutely. Currency should be a symbol of exchange, not the actual energy.
It doesn't have the value.
It's an agreed upon mode of exchange.
And we need to get back to what we had pre-1913.
Let's talk to Rachel in New York.
You're on the air.
unidentified
Hi. I just wanted to let you know that one of the things that has been going on lately, Actually, I have seen that in the news.
alex jones
The word is getting out, but it's not a big national story because of Bloomberg and other reports that the federal government is ordering private pension funds to, quote, invest in failed banks.
I mean, since when can the government order Uh, because they have regulatory threats if they don't.
See, they can selectively enforce.
Max Keiser, break that down.
max keiser
Right. Well, 401k accounts are the retirement accounts.
People squirrel away money every month with their employer.
Now, if they're liquidating those accounts, what's not being clear here is either it's because of duress and they need that money because they're going bankrupt and they have to draw down their savings, or two, they fear tax hikes coming and the tax advantages of the 401K evaporate, so why not take that money out and put it somewhere in another institution that you don't have the same kind of risk?
Now, I think what the caller is referring to is that people are removing money from their 401Ks as an offensive measure, not a defensive measure, as a way to understand that they need to take more control of their financial well-being and to put what they thought was money safely put away into other alternative investments, possibly other currencies, other countries, into gold, etc., Well said, Max Keiser.
alex jones
Anything else, Rachel?
unidentified
No, that's all.
I just wanted to say many of the people we're speaking to say they'd rather have their money now.
Then wait until they're 58 years old when it won't be there anymore.
They'll take the tax hit now.
alex jones
Yeah, I know.
That's accelerating.
Good point.
Let's talk to Stephen in California.
You're on the air.
max keiser
Mr. Jones?
alex jones
Yes, sir.
unidentified
Pleasure to be on your show.
I'm a first-time caller and kind of a first-time listener.
As a young person living in today, I've become educated on your show and you instill the passion slash interest in government.
I'm wondering, you know, how a person in my position, my family has no legacy and all that, how do I get into that sort of thing?
alex jones
Well, look, in high school, in college, they make it boring, it's government, it's like Alcatraz or something, or it's like some, you know, Island of Dr. Maru, it's some imaginary thing far off.
You've got to be involved in government because if you don't, it's going to get taken over by shysters and they're going to rob the hell out of you and hire a bunch of uniformed thugs to enforce their corruption.
It's called tyranny.
And so we've...
Became the wealthiest country in the world because we had a small government and we were on top of things and we allowed people to keep most of their wealth because it was their God-given right.
Now we're becoming the center of evil because our wealth has been used to dominate the globe and build an empire and no one is as enslaved as people inside the empire and so people are waking up and deciding I better get involved in government.
Then they go get involved in government and they find That for those that did get involved, there's a fake left-right choice, which is meant to further confuse them.
Okay? They've followed the yellow brick road, they've gotten to the Emerald Palace, they've gone in, and there's this big flaming head telling them, I am the Great Oz, and the next level is going, no, Republicans and Democrats, you're not,
toto! Well, if you go back, this is a very interesting question, because it's a very interesting inflection point, and especially for a young person.
max keiser
Now, if you remember, And you know what?
The market is actually the problem, and it's creating an incredible amount of problems on top of problems.
So if that's true, then does that mean we're going to ask ourselves or look at the possibility that there might be some saving grace in the idea of having a government?
alex jones
But here's the next problem, Max.
Let me comment.
max keiser
The fathers of the United States created a government.
That's what they got this country started on.
They didn't start with a hedge fund.
They started with a constitution.
alex jones
No, I agree with you, but again, to expand on that, under the Constitution, Congress controls the issuance of currency and credit, not private bankers.
So the confusion is going to be with the public.
You're going to have the private bankers pose as a solution with a type of regulation that is only going to empower them even more.
So, how do you get past that?
max keiser
Well, first, my question is, Yeah, well, it's all in the Constitution.
They recognize gold and silver as the only constitutionally recognized form of money and currency.
If that's true, then all of the fiat currency, fractional reserve, derivative market scamming that's going on has to be taken completely out of the system.
alex jones
Yeah, we've got to go back to the Constitution.
That's right.
Stay there.
Stay there.
We're going to talk to Ian, Steve, Kevin, and others.
And, Stephen, I'm going to try to answer your question.
Hello, this is Alex Jones with some important questions.
If you're going into a battle and they give you a rifle and a sidearm, how much ammunition do you want?
My answer would be all I can get.
In the battle for freedom and the lives of your loved ones, food is your only ammunition.
How much do you want?
When do you want it?
Now or after the battle starts?
When will you need it?
Can you buy it without proper identification?
Will there be any food?
Will it make your children sick?
If there's a quarantine and you can't feed yourself, will you go to the gathering center and be immunized?
You wipe out all these problems if you have a good food supply.
Food is your ammunition to fight for your freedom and your life.
How much will you need?
We don't know.
How much do you want?
All you can get.
I'm Alex Jones.
I want all of you good guys to live to fight another day.

What if I say I will never surrender?
Okay, we're going to continue with the calls in this segment and the next.
And then, Gary Franchi of Restore the Republic with Don't Tread on Me is coming on.
I want to play Miss Arizona, or Miss Oklahoma talking about Arizona.
Says she supports Arizona law.
We're going to talk about states' rights coming up.
But before I go any further with Max Keiser, I want to simplify this because this gets confusing for people because it is so simple.
Sometimes the simplest things are confusing.
I'm against anything big and monolithic, whether it's government or hedge funds that are bigger than any government, money-wise, because they just created themselves, as Thomas Jefferson warned they would, a blank check to take over the planet.
You know, to paraphrase Jefferson, he said, Yeah, you could take out private central bankers, but if you ever let them back in within one day, they'll buy up the whole world with fake credit they produce.
So, the problem is with a quote free market is it's not free market when the CIA with a inner coterie of private banks gives themselves unlimited trillions and uses their own regulatory power to shut down their competition.
And so we need government to protect the true free market and to have rules against counterfeiting as Max Keiser said.
Counterfeiting is illegal.
If I opened up a fake company, started selling stock, claiming it was in gold mines I didn't own, it would be a fraud.
Well, it's a step past that, with the fractional reserve banking, with the derivatives, with these fake insurance companies certifying it, and then taxpayers having to bail it out.
So, that is the issue.
The, quote, free market's being demonized by the bankers themselves, because they want a global controlled market that they control.
And so, until the public becomes educated on this, It's just going to get worse.
Again, MaxKaiser.com is his website.
Very informative stuff.
You can watch him on RT, as well as Press TV does weekly television shows that are some of the most popular on those channels.
But let's go back to your phone calls.
Briefly answering Steve's question.
Steven, I don't know how you get involved, quote, in government.
Start fighting tyranny.
Form your own group.
Go to city council.
Speak out.
Start a blog.
And you'll learn and get better as you go.
Ian in England, you're on the air with questions for Max Kaiser.
How are you doing, Alex?
unidentified
Good to be on.
Yeah, it's good to hear Max Keiser.
I've always been an interested listener to his opinions, and of course your own.
With regards to the British parliamentary catastrophe that's been going on, I mean, people think that they can't make a difference, but we've demonstrated that we've effectively created a constitutional crisis here.
There was nobody who was willing to back up the parliamentary process.
And I think that that's certainly a statement which people can take a little bit of pleasure from, if not a great deal of influence from.
So, it demonstrates the fact that these people don't have any kind of mandate to operate the way they have been doing.
alex jones
That's right, all three of the big parties are hated.
Your take on what's happening in England, Max?
max keiser
Yeah, they did.
They triggered a crisis, a constitutional crisis, as your caller calls it.
And because in the U.K., they become very adept at strategic voting.
So everybody on the web kind of shares information to try to swing local elections in a strategic way.
So they might vote for somebody they don't really want if it's strategic toward a bigger goal.
And the people have really organized themselves in this way.
Now, it's interesting, when the new coalition started, this Tory-liberal-democrat coalition, it was very interesting because it was a coalition government, didn't have a majority.
They had a problem because in the House of Lords, they didn't have enough lords to back up their proposals.
So what they did yesterday is they simply, with a stroke of a pen, increased the number of lords in the House of Lords by 100.
Now, for anyone in the U.S., that would send a chill down your spine because, of course, we fought a war.
They were forced to escape the lords in the House of Lords.
But they're still active, and they're still part of a major government, the U.S.
allies.
alex jones
They're not hereditary.
Five more minutes with Max Keiser.
Straight ahead, more of your calls.
