A few days ago the European Central Bank suggested that it was about to cut interest rates.
This planned cut is happening at a time when Denmark is offering to lend money at MINUS 0.12% for a ten-year mortgage.
In other words, the bank would PAY YOU to take out a loan.
If you listen to late-night comedians the Mueller testimony was a huge success, but they are preaching to a shrinking and increasingly isolated choir.
Wall Street voted on the Mueller testimony as well, and they voted in the only way they know how - with cash.

I also want to look at the nature of money (the other green) and how we might transition toward socialism with worker coops.
The ruling elites have compared Russiagate to Pearl Harbor, 9/11, and Kristallnacht.
