The Ascendence of Sociopaths In US Governance
by Doug Casey of Casey Research
An International Man lives and does business wherever he finds conditions most advantageous, regardless of arbitrary borders. He’s diversified globally, with passports from multiple countries, assets in several jurisdictions and his residence in yet another. He doesn’t depend absolutely on any country and regards all of them as competitors for his capital and expertise.
Living as an international man used to be just an interesting possibility. But few Americans opted for it, since the US used to reward those who settled in and put down roots. In fact, it rewarded them better than any other country in the world, so there was nothing pressing about becoming an international man.
Things change, however, and being rooted like a plant, at least if you have a choice, is a suboptimal strategy for surviving and prospering. Throughout history, almost every place has at some point become dangerous for those who were stuck there. It may be America’s turn.
For those who can take up the life of an international man, it’s no longer just an interesting lifestyle decision. It has become, at a minimum, an asset saver, and it could be a life saver. That said, I understand the hesitation you may feel about taking action; pulling up one’s roots (or at least grafting some of them to a new location) can be almost as traumatic to a man as to a vegetable.
As any intelligent observer surveys the world’s economic and political landscape, he has to be disturbed – even dismayed and a bit frightened – by the gravity and number of problems that mark the horizon. We’re confronted by economic depression, looming financial chaos, serious currency inflation, onerous taxation, crippling regulation, developing police states and, worst of all, the prospect of a major war. It seems almost unbelievable that we are talking of the US – which historically has been the land of the free.
How did we get here? An argument can be made that miscalculation, accident, inattention and the like are why things go bad. Those elements do have a role, but it is minor. Potential catastrophe across the board can’t be the result of happenstance. When things go wrong on a grand scale, it’s not just bad luck or inadvertence. It’s because of serious character flaws in one or many – or even all – of the players.
So is there a root cause of all the problems I’ve cited? If we can find it, it may tell us how we personally can best respond to the problems.
In this article, I’m going to argue that the US government, in particular, is being overrun by the wrong kind of person. It’s a trend that’s been in motion for many years but has now reached a point of no return. In other words, a type of moral rot has become so prevalent that it’s institutional in nature. There is not going to be, therefore, any serious change in the direction in which the US is headed until a genuine crisis topples the existing order. Until then, the trend will accelerate.
The reason is that a certain class of people – sociopaths – are now fully in control of major American institutions. Their beliefs and attitudes are insinuated throughout the economic, political, intellectual and psychological/spiritual fabric of the US.
What does this mean to the individual? It depends on your character. Are you the kind of person who supports “my country right or wrong,” as did most Germans in the 1930s and 1940s, or the kind who dodges the duty to be a helpmate to murderers? The type of passenger who goes down with the ship or the type who puts on his vest and looks for a life boat? The type of individual who supports the merchants who offer the fairest deal or the type who is gulled by splashy TV commercials?

Wisconsin Mystery Booms May Be Manmade
Breaking, Updated hourly on 3.21.2012:
Pattern Showing in Aerial Maps of Origins of Police Reports
A photographic still from the news video reporting on the re-occurance of new “mystery booms” being heard all around eastern Wisconsin show a jaw-dropping equidistant pattern to the locations where people have called in to report the booms. This pattern looks almost like a checkerboard, or a chessboard. Each identified locale of a call to police is noted with a red dot in the still below.
The patterning of these dots is so equidistant that there is no way these sounds could be from a naturally occuring geologic event.
Have a look at this grid showing the locations where people have reported “mystery booms” to police:
Here is a still where I have literally connected these dots, vertically and horizontally. What in the hell is going on here?
Video report from late 2011 provides more clues:
I’m not sure I actually believe all of what AC said in this interview, but I listened to all of it.

Wisconsin Mystery Booms
What began as mysterious booming noises in Clintonville, Wisconsin in the early morning hours of March 19th is now also being reported 80 miles to the south in the town of Montello. And just to the east of Montello in Fond du Lac, a strange “milky white substance with a sulfur smell” has suddenly appeared near the Fond du Lac River. Fond du Lac is located at the southern end of Lake Winnebago, just below the “rip point” of Green Bay.
ZetaTalk Explanation 7/26/2008: Looking at a map of Wisconsin, one sees that Green Bay is at the point where the peninsula is pulling away from the mainland of Wisconsin. In other words, at the rip point. Looking further inland along the line of rip, we see Lake Winnebago, a large body of water which formed over an area that had sunk in the past. When we described the St. Lawrence Seaway ripping open during the pole shift, and the ripping process which has already begun since the wobble and tugging at the surface of the Earth occur daily, we described not just the seaway but a Mississippi River bridge failing at Minneapolis and the much earlier rumpling of the Black Hills in S Dakota. Of course the ripping open of the seaway is going to affect Wisconsin as it is in the heavy traffic lane!

Mysterious Booms Continue for Third Night in Clintonville, WI – Residents Leaving Town
Police, residents and experts are baffled by the source of mysterious booms and shaking that have been plaguing the town of Clintonville, Wis., for the past three days, and have caused some residents to flee.
The Clintonville Police Department said they have received over 250 calls about noises from underground shaking homes in the northeast corner of the town near Green Bay, Wis. with approximately 5000 residents.
The mystery is even stumping some of the brightest minds at the University of Wisconsin, who were consulted about whether or not these booms could be related to seismic activity.
“I think we can rule out that standard earthquake activity, [that] some swarm of earthquakes is happening in that region. It also really looks like it’s not connected to, say, unusual drilling activity or some other kind of real obvious human induced signal, ” Harold Tobin, one of those professors in the Geoscience department at the University of Wisconsin told WKOW.
Tobin headed to Clintonville after he received a call from the Wisconsin Geological Survey office asking for help.
Tobin and a colleague looked at activity on several of the seismometers that sit in the region near Clintonville. He says there is an indication that it is an especially noisy site, but not noisy enough to cause the sounds people there are describing.
Tobin says it does appear the sounds are either coming from the surface of the ground or just underneath the surface. He says that he is just as confused and intrigued as anyone as to what exactly is causing the sounds, and adds that there are other instruments that could be put out in the region where the sounds are to record noise in the air, and also ground vibrations at a higher frequency.
This would help to pinpoint exactly where the sounds and coming from and what their characteristics are.
Residents of the area say that they find the noises and shakes puzzling and troubling.
“They’re pretty loud when they vibrate the windows and you can feel the vibration on the floor and on the ground,” Verda Schultz told ABC News affiliate WBAY.
The city has so far managed to rule out problems with the water and sewer system, elevated gas levels, area blasting or mining, industrial businesses, and even military operations, WBAY reported.
“I think that right now the greatest possibility is that it is some sort of natural phenomenon. I think that it’s a possibility that there is some earth shifting going on underneath the ground that creates those popping sort of exploding popping or vibrating noises that people feel,” City Administrator Lisa Kuss said.
The booms and shakes have gotten so bad that they have begun to drive residents from the town.
“Our dog is scared, our neighbors are leaving and stuff, so we decided we are going somewhere else for a while,” Dennis Padia said. “It’s that loud, and it bothers you. You can’t go to sleep.”

1) Americas Buoys
Why would a buoy off the Washington coast and another off Colombia suddenly go on alert at the same time? On February 27, 2012 buoy 46419 showed a water depth drop and rise of over 60 meters – rising to 2,804 and then plunging to 2,744. That equates to 180 feet! The buoy is located along the Juan de Fuca Plate border, and the N America Plate, per the Zetas, is being pulled into a bow, the West Coast of the US the center of that bow.
As noted in this Pole Shift ning blog, this is not the only buoy that reacted to plate movement. Buoy 32411 just off the Colombia coastline and on the Cocos and Nazca plate borders also went on alert, simultaneously. As South America rolls its top to the west, rolling over the Cocos and Nazca plates and pushing the Caribbean Plate down, it pulls Mexico to the west, increasing the bowing pressure on the N American continent.
This is yet more proof of the 7 of 10 plate movements predicted by the Zetas. What else would cause these two buoys to go on alert at the same time!
2) South American Roll Ongoing
Still not at its peak, but progressing, as one can see from a snapshot on January 26, 2012. Quakes registered not only along the Andes, but out in the Pacific, as shown on the IRIS chart for the day. A buoy just off Chile pulsed for days, as shown on the buoy map. And the MODIS satellite images show Panama clearly being severed from Colombia. Enjoy all this proof of plate movement while you have it folks, as the establishment, the cover-up, is liable to blind you by removing access to such proof in the future.
News reports from the stretch zones are likely to still be available, but in future, perhaps increasingly restricted to be only local news. What is important, from the establishment point of view, is that you remain dumb about what is coming. They don’t want your messy panic! They know, they are preparing, but you are to remain dumb. That’s their priority. Meanwhile, the eastern coast of South America, in the stretch zone as South America pulls to the west, has imploding buildings.

The Fake Bearer Bonds: Another Take
by Joseph P. Farrell
Apparently there are those out there who, like me, are fascinated with the allegedly fake bearer bonds showing up out there. Here is a take, similar to my own speculations in some respects, that I thought was worth noting:
Secret “Occult Economy” Coming Out of the Shadows?
Now, notwithstanding the similarities of this analysis and my own – namely, that we are looking at the basis of a hidden or occult economy – I am drawn to one particular detail that appears in this article, that might indicate yet a deeper twist to things, consider these paragraphs, and in particular, the first one:
“For instance, in 2003,* two men – a Canadian and a Korean living in Japan – tried to use $25 million worth of US Treasury bonds in order to secure a line of credit from the Imperial Bank of Commerce.
“The bonds presented by the men were easily spotted as fake and the men, along with Graham Halksworth – a 69-year-old British man and his associate, Michael Slamaj, a former Yugoslav spy — were arrested and charged.
“The story behind the acquirement of the bonds provided by Halksworth and Slamaj directly coincided with the chronology of events as recorded in the files of the Foreign Office.
“Yet, although the bonds/notes in the Halksworth case were demonstrably false, they did reveal some rather startling information – that fake bonds were often included amongst large quantities of real bonds so as to preclude the holder from ever being able to cash them.
“Indeed, when questioned by the police as to his role in the fake bond scandal, Halksworth responded by telling police that ‘Deliberate mistakes were often made in such bonds as a security device; ask the CIA.’When the police pointed out that the mistakes were so obvious it looked like a child had made them, Halksworth responded, ‘Exactly.’

Global Systemic Crisis – The Five Devastating Storms In Summer 2012 At The Heart of The World Geopolitical Swing
- Public announcement GEAB No. 63 (March 15, 2012) -
In its January 2012 issue, LEAP/E2020 signalled the current year as that of the world geopolitical swing. The first quarter 2012 has, to a large extent, started to establish that an era was in fact coming to an end with, in particular, the Russian and Chinese decisions: to block any Western attempt at interference in Syria1:their stated desire, associated with Indiaespecially, to ignore or circumvent the oil embargo fixed by the United States and the EU against Iran2;the increasing tensions in relations between the United States and Israel3the acceleration of the policy of diversification out of the US Dollar led by China4and the BRICS (but also by Japan and Euroland5the premise of change in Euroland’s political strategy at the time of the French electoral campaign6and the intensification of actions and statements fueling the rising strength of trans-bloc commercial wars7In March 2012, we are far from March 2011 and the “hustling” of the UN by the USA/UK/France trio to attack Libya.
March 2011 was still the unipolar world of after 1989. March 2012 is already the post-crisis multipolar world hesitating between confrontations and partnerships.
Thus, as anticipated by LEAP/E2020, the handling of the “Greek crisis”9has quickly caused the disappearance of the so-called “Euro crisis” from the media headlines and market participants’ concerns. The mass hysteria maintained by the Anglo-Saxon media and the Eurosceptics during the second half of 2011 on this subject hasn’t lasted long: Euroland is increasingly asserting itself as a sustainable structure;10once again the Euro is in vogue in the markets and for emerging countries’ central banks,11the Eurogroup/ECB functioned effectively and private investors will have to accept a haircut of up to 70% on their Greek assets, thus confirming LEAP/E2020’s 2010 anticipation which then spoke of a 50% haircut when almost no-one imagined such a possibility without a “catastrophe” signalling the end of the Euro12. Ultimately, markets always yield to the law of the strongest… and the fear of losing more, whatever the students of ultra-liberalism may say. It’s a lesson which political leaders will jealously guard because there are other haircuts to come, in the United States, in Japan and in Europe. We will come back to this in this GEAB issue.
Central bank held sovereign debt (as a % of GDP) (2002-2012) – United States (in violet), United Kingdom (in grey), Euroland (in violet dots), Japan (in grey dots) – Sources: Datastream / central banks / Natixis, 02/2012
Contemporaneously, and that contributes to explaining the gentle euphoria which feeds the markets and many economic and financial players these last few months, due to it being an electoral year and from the need to make a good impression at all costs against a Eurozone which isn’t collapsing13, the US financial media have given us a remake of the “green shoots” story from the beginning of 2010 and the “recovery” 14 from the beginning of 2011 in order to paint a picture of an America “exiting the crisis”. However, the United States at this beginning of 2012 really resembles a depressing scene painted by Edward Hopper15 and not a glowing 60s chromo in the style of Andy Warhol. Just as in 2010 and 2011, the spring will for that matter be the moment of the return to the real world.
In this context all the more dangerous, as all the players are lulled by a dangerous illusion of a “return to normal”, in particular of the “restarting of the US economic engine” 16, LEAP/E2020 considers it necessary to alert its readers to the fact that summer 2012 will see the shattering of this illusion. In fact, we anticipate that summer 2012 will see the crystallization of five devastating shocks which are at the heart of the current process of world geopolitical swing. The black clouds which have been accumulating since the beginning of the crisis around economic and financial issues have now been joined by the dark clouds of geopolitical confrontation.
Therefore, in LEAP/E2020’s view, five devastating storms will mark the summer of 2012 and thus accelerate the process of world geopolitical swing:
. US relapse into recession against the background of European stagnation and BRICS slowdown
. dead end for the central banks and interest rate increases
. storm on the foreign exchange and Western sovereign debt markets
. Iran, the war « too far »
. new crash in the markets and financial institutions.
In this GEAB issue our team analyzes these five shocks of summer 2012 in detail.
At the same time, in partnership with the Anticipolis Editions, we are publishing a new excerpt from the book by Sylvain Périfel and Philippe Schneider, “2015 – The great fall of Western real estate”, at the time of the French version going on sale; dealing with the prospects for the American residential real estate market.
Lastly, we give our monthly recommendations targeting gold, currencies, financial assets, stock exchanges and commodities in this number.
