The "Vollgeld Initiative" - Switzerland's 'Once-In-A-Lifetime' Chance To Save The World

 

It’s called “Vollgeld Initiative” – in German, meaning more or less “Referendum for Sovereign Money”. What is “Sovereign Money”? – Its money produced only by the Central Bank, by the “Sovereign”, the government, represented by its central bank. Money created in accordance with the needs of the economy, as contrasted to the profit and greed motives of the banking oligarchy – what it is today; money creation at will, by private banking.

The people of Switzerland are called to vote on 10 June 2018 whether they want to stop the unlimited, unrestrained money-making by the Swiss private banking system, and to return to the “olden days”, when money was made and controlled only by the Central Bank; and this not just in Switzerland, but in most countries around the globe. Switzerland is one of the few sovereign countries within the OECD, and possibly worldwide, that has the Right of Referendum written into her Constitution.

 

With 100,000 valid signatures anybody can raise a referendum to amend or abolish a law, or to create a new one. – This is a huge privilege to Right a Wrong.

 

Most Swiss and probably most westerners in general don’t even know that the loan or mortgage they get from their bank is no longer backed by the bank’s capital and deposits. How could they? Instead of being told the truth, they are being lied to, even by their own party and politicians. And that in the case of Switzerland, by nobody less than the CEO of the UBS, the largest Swiss bank. Just watch this short video (in German and Italian – 2 min)

Lying is a felony, hence Mr. Sergio Ermotti, CEO of UBS, should be prosecuted. Unlikely to happen, though. What Mr. Ermotti in essence says in this interview is that loans are backed by deposits. This is directly contradicted by the Swiss National Bank and the German Bundesbank (Central Bank). They say that “today about 90% of all the money is accounting money, created by loans the banks make to enterprises and private citizens. Pretending that banks use deposits to make loans, is not true.” The latter part was specifically expressed by the German Bundesbank. – So, how come Mr. Ermotti, CEO of UBS, wouldn’t know that?

 

Switzerland, fully embedded in the globalized western banking system, absorbed by it, has a chance to tell the world that the only way to control and get on top of the cycle of financial and economic crises is to reign-in the bottom-less money production – the debt-interest-profit driven banking system, a Ponzi scheme that cannot survive (financing debt with more debt); the abhorrent uncontrollable debt-profit cycle that has brought misery to humanity – just look at Greece. With money production controlled by the respective central banks, for example, in France and in Germany, the senseless indebting of Greece by German and French banks would not have been possible, in which case the troika’s (ECB, European Commission and IMF) so-called bail-outs, or ‘rescue packages’, would not have been possible either. Hence no doubling of Greece’s debt – and Greece would be well on her way to recovery.

 

The point is that these too-big-to-fail banks have become also too big to control, and of course they do not want to be controlled. They have the (political) power to shed off any control. They want to continue creating debt, lending money not for economic development, but for profit of their shareholders. Banking for development has stopped a long time ago. The only banking for development is public banking, and that is almost non-existent – so far – in the west; except for North Dakota and soon New Jersey – and a number of other US States are considering public banking as a means of bringing back the true sense of banking – i.e. for economic development. But with the current FED-Wall Street bulldozer’s onslaught on the world, they are fighting against windmills – but even windmills are fallible.

 

By and large, in the west it’s corporate banking for profit. And thanks to the public’s ignorance and disinterest, deregulation took place behind our backs.

Rudy Giuliani law partner to replace Preet Bharara, noted prosecutor tapped to run Brooklyn’s U.S. Attorney’s office

 

 

A veteran lawyer who works with former mayor Rudy Giuliani will take over the Manhattan U.S. Attorney's office, filling the job Preet Bharara was fired from in March.

 

Geoffrey Berman was named to lead the high-profile Manhattan office, and a longtime prosecutor, Richard Donoghue, was tapped to run the Brooklyn's U.S. Attorney's office, according to the Justice Department.

 

The pair were two of the 17 interim U.S. attorneys named Wednesday by Attorney General Jeff Sessions.

 

"Each has excellent prosecution skills and the temperament necessary to succeed in this critical role-and they have already proven that with a number of accomplishments on behalf of the American people," Sessions said.

Berman, a Manhattan federal prosecutor for four years, is a partner at white shoe lawfirm Greenberg Traurig. Giuliani works there as chairman of its Cybersecurity, Privacy and Crisis Management Practice. Berman reportedly interviewed for the job with President Trump.

 

Berman also worked as an associate counsel in the Office of Independent Counsel Iran-Contra from 1987 to 1990. While there, he won a tax fraud case against an ex-CIA employee, according to his firm's website.

 

Donoghue, who spent nearly 12 years in the office he's been tapped to run, is currently a senior vice president and chief litigation lawyer at the computer tech giant CA Technologies.

 

While at the Brooklyn U.S. Attorney's Office, he rose to become the chief of the criminal division, according to his LinkedIn profile.

 

Donoghue, a St. John's University School of Law grad, started his career in the U.S. Army's JAG Corps.

 

A number of other legal heavy-hitters applied for the job, and one of them, Edward McNally, reportedly interviewed with President Trump.

 

Donoghue would replace Bridget Rohde, the current acting Brooklyn U.S. Attorney.

 

Rohde took the reins after President Trump dropped the ax on U.S. Attorneys all over the country, including Brooklyn U.S. Attorney Robert Capers and Bharara.
