The Hows and Whys of Gold Price Manipulation

No Jobs For Americans — Paul Craig Roberts
No Jobs For Americans Paul Craig Roberts The alleged recovery took a direct hit from Friday’s payroll jobs report.

The Case of the Missing Recovery — Paul Craig Roberts

Manipulations Rule The Markets — Paul Craig Roberts
Manipulations Rule The Markets Paul Craig Roberts The Federal Reserve’s announcement on December 18 that beginning in January its monthly purchases of mortgage-backed financial instruments and US Treasury bonds would each be cut by $5 billion is puzzling, as is the financial press’s account of the market’s response. The Federal Reserve conveys a contradictory message. The Fed says that improvements in employment and the economy...

Washington Has Discredited America — Paul Craig Roberts
Washington Has Discredited America Paul Craig Roberts Years ago when I described the George W. Bush regime as a police state, right-wing eyebrows were raised. When I described the Obama regime as an even worse police state, liberals rolled their eyes. Alas! Now I am no longer controversial. Everybody says it.
