„America’s Fiscal Collapse – Obama’s Budget Will Impoverish America“
with economist and author, Michel Chossudovsky
Guns and Butter, KPFA
The administration’s 2010 budget will entail the most drastic curtailment in public spending in American history, leading to social havoc and the potential impoverishment of millions of people. Defense spending and bank bailouts will consume all government revenue resulting in fiscal collapse that will lead to the privatization of the state.

America’s Fiscal Collapse
- by Michel Chossudovsky – 2009-03-02
Excerpt
At first sight, the budget proposal has all the appearances of an expansionary program, a demand oriented „Second New Deal“ geared towards creating employment, rebuilding shattered social programs and reviving the real economy.
The realities are otherwise. Obama’s promise is based on a mammoth austerity program. The entire fiscal structure is shattered, turned upside down.
To reach these stated objectives, a significant hike in public spending on social programs (health, education, housing, social security) would be required as well as the implementation of a large scale public investment program. Major shifts in the composition of public expenditure would also be required: i.e. a move out of a war economy, requiring a movement out of military related spending in favour of civilian programs.
In actuality, what we are dealing with is the most drastic curtailment in public spending in American history, leading to social havoc and the potential impoverishment of millions of people.
The Obama promise largely serves the interests of Wall Street, the defence contractors and the oil conglomerates. In turn, the Bush-Obama bank „bailouts“ are leading America into a spiralling public debt crisis. The economic and social dislocations are potentially devastating.
Obama’s budget submitted to Congress on February 26, 2009 envisages outlays for the 2010 fiscal year (commencing October 1st 2009) of $3.94 trillion, an increase of 32 percent. Total government revenues for the 2010 fiscal year, according to preliminary estimates by the Bureau of Budget, are of the order of $2.381 trillion.
The predicted budget deficit (according to the president’s speech) is of the order of $1.75 trillion, almost 12 percent of the U.S. Gross Domestic Product.
War and Wall Street
This is a „War Budget“. The austerity measures hit all major federal spending programs with the exception of: 1. Defence and the Middle East War: 2. the Wall Street bank bailout, 3. Interest payments on a staggering public debt.
The budget diverts tax revenues into financing the war. It legitimizes the fraudulent transfers of tax dollars to the financial elites under the „bank bailouts“.
The pattern of deficit spending is not expansionary. We are not dealing with a Keynesian style deficit, which stimulates investment and consumer demand, leading to an expansion of production and employment.
America’s Fiscal Collapse
The Economic Depression was predicted in Michel Chossudovsky’s 2003 best-seller
The Globalization of Poverty and the New World Order
by Michel Chossudovsky
In this new and expanded edition of Chossudovsky’s international best-seller, the author outlines the contours of a New World Order which feeds on human poverty and the destruction of the environment, generates social apartheid, encourages racism and ethnic strife and undermines the rights of women. The result as his detailed examples from all parts of the world show so convincingly, is a globalization of poverty.
This book is a skillful combination of lucid explanation and cogently argued critique of the fundamental directions in which our world is moving financially and economically.
In this new enlarged edition –which includes ten new chapters and a new introduction– the author reviews the causes and consequences of famine in Sub-Saharan Africa, the dramatic meltdown of financial markets, the demise of State social programs and the devastation resulting from corporate downsizing and trade liberalisation.
Michel Chossudovsky is Professor of Economics at the University of Ottawa and Director of the Centre for Research on Globalization (CRG), which hosts the critically acclaimed website www.globalresearch.ca. He is a contributor to the Encyclopedia Britannica. His writings have been translated into more than 20 languages.

CFR-dominated national media & USSA Congress distract Americans
with AIG bonus „red herring“ circus,
while European leaders prepare for historic G-20 Global Economic Summit
The AIG Bonus Circus is yet another CFR-media-inflamed D-I-S-T-R-A-C-T-I-O-N to keep Americans’ attention
off the upcoming G-20 Global Economic Summit in London, April 2 … much more important and pressing are these issues:
(1) Will Obama agree at the G-20 London Summit to establish a Global Central Bank,
a Global „Federal Reserve“ ?
(2) Will Obama agree at the G-20 London Summit to study the proposal for Global Currency,
called the „acmetal“ ?
(3) Will the American people wake up and focus enough to force the U.S.S.A. Congress
to have the vision and courage to protect America’s monetary sovereignty ?

Preparations for the London Summit will dominate the agenda of the two-day meeting, where the European Council
will agree its contribution to the plan for a global economic recovery.

EU leaders converge on Brussels for pre-Summit [ G-20 in London on April 2]
[European] council meeting
www.londonsummit.gov.uk/en/summit-aims/timeline-events/european-leaders-2
[emphasis added]
Leaders of the 27 member states of the European Union are gathering in Brussels [Belgium] for the spring meeting of the European Council
today and tomorrow (19 and 20 March) for what will be the last major politicians’ meeting ahead of the London Summit on 2 April.
The EU are looking to provide global leadership in three key areas at the G20 summit; supporting the International Financial Institutions,
promoting substantial financial regulatory reform and championing global trade and trade finance to combat protectionism.
The Council is the main decision-making body of the European Union and will be the final opportunity for European leaders to agree on their position
ahead of the London Summit of the G20 group of emerging and developed countries.
The European Council is also hoping to sign off a €5bn [5 billion Euro ?] European Commission stimulus package targeted at climate change,
renewable energy and broadband access across Europe. An Action Plan on EU energy security is also likely to be agreed.
At a press conference with President Barroso earlier this week, the Prime Minister was unequivocal in his stance on the dangers of protectionism,
warning that Europe and the world must resist protectionism during the global economic downturn.
‘The 1930s brought protectionism in response to recession,’ he said. ‘We must tackle protectionism head on and make sure that we don’t risk
a spiral of trade collapse through the protectionism that is obviously a possible reaction to this crisis.’
In an interview with this website Commission President José Manuel Barroso told this website that unity within in the EU on four key issues
should guarantee the success of the summit. These were:
- the need for fiscal stimulus to drive the economic recovery;
- the need to improve financial regulation and supervision;
- the need to address the problems of global trade, resist protectionism and all forms of economic nationalism; and
- the need to devote specific attention to the developing countries and the most vulnerable people in the world.
‘If we agree on all these points then I think we have a very good basis for a successful G20 summit in London,’ he told www.londonsummit.gov.uk.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
EU Chief Barroso says Europe united ahead of Spring [European] Council
www.londonsummit.gov.uk/en/summit-aims/timeline-events/brown-barroso
José Manuel Barroso, the President of the European Commission, said that the European Union was united on all the key policies needed
to tackle the financial crisis ahead of its Spring Council meeting this week. In an exclusive interview with this website, he said there was now
a ‘great convergence’ between the United States and the EU on the policy priorities ahead of the London Summit on 2 April.
The Spring European Council of heads of state of the 27 EU member states on 19 and 20 March in Brussels will establish the EU’s position ahead
of the London Summit, and also consider additional measures to address the current economic and financial crisis, paying particular attention to
the employment situation.
[continued...]
Barroso said the EU and United States had emerged from the meeting of the finance ministers and central bankers of the G20 group
with a ‘great convergence’ on the need to respond to this crisis in several areas. These included the need for financial regulation, and the
better supervision of the financial markets and a sustained effort towards economic recovery through the fiscal stimulus. He acknowledged there
had been media reports of disagreements on this last issue but said: ‘In fact we can agree that we need this additional kind of fiscal stimulus.
There is a very important convergence on many issues including this one: the need to keep the situation under review and go on with the measures
decided to stimulate the economy.’
Asked what single achievement he wanted to see emerge from the London Summit, he said that was impossible to say as they were so interlinked.
‘The most important [outcome] is to go on with the global recovery economically in a coordinated manner and also to be [agreed] on the same principles
and rules on the supervision of financial markets,’ Barroso said. ‘I think we need to put ethics back into the financial system. So if we can agree on
those points it will be a very successful summit.’

Agenda Behind Brown’s „Global New Deal“
www.thenewamerican.com/usnews/foreign-policy/860
Thursday, 05 March 2009
„British Prime Minister Gordon Brown, who has been working tirelessly for months to promote world financial and economic governance
under the pretext of fighting the ongoing global recession, called for a “global New Deal” in a speech before the U.S. Congress yesterday
and in remarks at the White House on Tuesday.“
„What Brown is suggesting is nothing less than internationalization of the same policies that have created and exacerbated the
economic meltdown artificially low interest rates and other so-called stimuli, heavier controls on banking and all other financial activities,
and burdensome regulations on industry, especially in the name of environmental protection.“
„Also integral to international financial reforms would be a global regulatory body or bodies, analogous to the WTO on trade, that would
have supranational authority to regulate banks and (presumably) to gather information on financial activity. In the long run, this would amount
to an end, worldwide, to financial privacy. It would also give the globalists the ability to manipulate the money supply worldwide, rather than on
a coordinated basis among cooperative central banks as is now the case.“
„Finally, it bears mentioning that the ability to manipulate the money supply is the ability to produce limitless amounts of money by means
other than direct taxation. The magic of central banking allows governments like our own to fund expensive and unpopular programs like wars of
occupation without regard for the sentiments of the voting public, because the money can be raised not by direct taxation but via the printing press.„
„One of the major limitations on the ability of the UN and other international governing bodies to increase their power is the absence (so far) of any
independent means of raising revenue that is, a system of global taxation. Despite decades of proposals, the UN-centered international system remains
dependent on contributions from member states for its continued operations. Give the UN a central bank akin to the Federal Reserve, however,
and it will be able to fund military forces, global police, and countless other conceits of the one-world set, by printing money. Thusly empowered,
there would be very few obstacles to prevent the UN from growing into a true global government.“
„This is the real agenda beneath the syrupy rhetoric for a “global New Deal.” Just as the American New Deal produced a socialist revolution within the
United States, a global New Deal may well push the world past the point of no return on the path to socialist world government.“

The present „New World Order“ is a modern „Tower of Babel“
„And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech. „ „And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top
may reach unto heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth.“ … „So the LORD
scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off to build the city.“ „Therefore is the name of it called
Babel; because the LORD did there confound the language of all the earth: and from thence did the LORD scatter them abroad
upon the face of all the earth.“ Genesis 11:1, 4, 8, 9
The „New World Order„ under construction in the 18th, 19th, 20th, and now 21st centuries is the modern „Tower of Babel.“
It’s end will be the same.

The Sixth President of the United States, John Quincy Adams (son of John Adams, the Second US President,
and a signer of the Declaration of Independence), said: „The highest glory of the American Revolution was this;
it connected in one indissoluble bond the principles of civil government with the principles of Christianity.“ and
„From the day of the Declaration… they (the American people) were bound by the laws of God, which they all,
and by the laws of The Gospel, which they nearly all, acknowledge as the rules of their conduct.“ Tragically,
today in 2008, American law has become exceedingly anti-Christian. Witness the government-protected
murder of One Million pre-birth human beings each year ( www.ldi.org ).
The Constitution of the United States should be amended as first proposed by the National Reform Association in 1864, with a Christian Amendment:
Confession of the Saviour (Messiah) as the Ruler of Nations, including America, by amending the Preamble to the United States Constitution
In 1864, the National Reform Association advocated amending the Preamble of the Constitution of the United States to read, in substance:
„We, the people of the United States, humbly acknowledging Almighty God as the source of all authority and power
in civil government, the Lord Jesus Christ as the Ruler among the nations, his revealed will as the supreme law of
the land, in order to constitute a Christian government, and in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice,
insure domestic tranquillity, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the inalienable
rights and the blessings of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness to ourselves, our posterity, and all the people, do
ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.“ http://candst.tripod.com/nra.htm
Explicitly Christian Politics: The Vision of the National Reform Association

„Since 1864 the National Reform Association has advocated an explicitly Christian approach to politics.
In this book their vision of politics, based on the mediatorial reign of Jesus Christ over the nations, is explained for a new generation.“

The Economic and Social Crisis
The financial meltdown has unleashed a latent and emergent social crisis across the United States.
What is at stake is the fraudulent confiscation of lifelong savings and pension funds, the appropriation of tax revenues to finance the trillion dollar „bank bailouts“, which ultimately serve to line the pockets of the richest people in America.
This economic crisis is in large part the result of financial manipulation and outright fraud to the detriment of entire populations, to a renewed wave of corporate bankruptcies, mass unemployment and poverty.
The criminalization of the global financial system, characterized by a „Shadow Banking“ network has resulted in the centralization of bank power and an unprecedented concentration of private wealth.
Obama’s „economic stimulus“ package and budget proposals contribute to a further process of concentration and centralization of bank power, the cumulative effects of which will eventually resul in large scale corporate, bankruptcies, a new wave of foreclosures not to mention fiscal collapse and the downfall of State social programs. (For further details see Michel Chossudovsky, America’s Fiscal Collapse, Global Research, March 2, 2009).
The cumulative decline of real economic activity backlashes on employment and wages, which in turn leads to a collapse in purchaisng power. The proposed „solution“ under the Obama administration contributes to exacerbating rather than alleviating social inequalities and the process of wealth concentration.
The Protest Movement
When people across America, whose lives have been shattered and destroyed, come to realize the true face of the global „free market“ system, the legitimacy of the Wall Street, the Federal Reserve and the US administration will be challenged.
A latent protest movement directed against the seat of economic and political power is unfolding.
How this process will occur is hard to predict. All sectors of American society are potentially affected: wage earners, small, medium and even large businesses, farmers, professionals, federal, State and municipal employees, students, teachers, health workers, and unemployed. Protests will initially emerge from these various sectors. There is, however, at this stage, no organized national resistance movement directed against the administration’s economic and financial agenda.
Obama’s populist rhetoric conceals the true nature of macro-economic policy. Acting on behalf of Wall Street, the administration’s economic package, which includes close to a trillion dollar „aid“ package for the financial services industry, coupled with massive austerity measures, contributes to precipitating America into a bottomless crisis.
„Orwellian Solution“ to the Great Depression: Curbing Civil Unrest
At this particular juncture, there is no economic recovery program in sight. The Washington-Wall Street consensus prevails. There are no policies, no alternatives formulated from within the political and economic system. .
What is the way out? How will the US government face an impending social catastrophe?
The solution is to curb social unrest. The chosen avenue, inherited from the outgoing Bush administration is the reinforcement of the Homeland Security apparatus and the militarization of civilian State institutions.
The outgoing administration has laid the groundwork. Various pieces of „anti-terrorist“ legislation (including the Patriot Acts) and presidential directives have been put in place since 2001, largely using the pretext of the „Global War on Terrorism.“
Homeland Security’s Internment Camps
Directly related to the issue of curbing social unrest, cohesive system of detention camps is also envisaged, under the jurisdiction of the Department of Homeland Security and the Pentagon.
A bill entitled the National Emergency Centers Establishment Act (HR 645) was introduced in the US Congress in January. It calls for the establishment of six national emergency centers in major regions in the US to be located on existing military installations. http://www.govtrack.us/congress/billtext.xpd?bill=h111-645
The stated purpose of the „national emergency centers“ is to provide „temporary housing, medical, and humanitarian assistance to individuals and families dislocated due to an emergency or major disaster.“ In actuality, what we are dealing with are FEMA internment camps. HR 645 states that the camps can be used to „meet other appropriate needs, as determined by the Secretary of Homeland Security.“
There has been virtually no press coverage of HR 645.
These „civilian facilities“ on US military bases are to be established in cooperation with the US Military. Modeled on Guantanamo, what we are dealing with is the militarization of FEMA internment facilities.
Once a person is arrested and interned in a FEMA camp located on a military base, that person would in all likelihood, under a national emergency, fall under the de facto jurisdiction of the Military: civilian justice and law enforcement including habeas corpus would no longer apply.
HR 645 bears a direct relationship to the economic crisis and the likelihood of mass protests across America. It constitutes a further move to militarize civilian law enforcement, repealing the Posse Comitatus Act.
In the words of Rep. Ron Paul:
„…the fusion centers, militarized police, surveillance cameras and a domestic military command is not enough… Even though we know that detention facilities are already in place, they now want to legalize the construction of FEMA camps on military installations using the ever popular excuse that the facilities are for the purposes of a national emergency. With the phony debt-based economy getting worse and worse by the day, the possibility of civil unrest is becoming a greater threat to the establishment. One need only look at Iceland, Greece and other nations for what might happen in the United States next.“ (Daily Paul, September 2008, emphasis added)
The proposed internment camps should be seen in relation to the broader process of militarization of civilian institutions. The construction of internment camps predates the introduction of HR 645 (Establishment of Emergency Centers) in January 2009. There are, according to various (unconfirmed) reports, some 800 FEMA prison camps in different regions of the U.S. Moreover, since the 1980s, the US military has developed „tactics, techniques and procedures“ to suppress civilian dissent, to be used in the eventuality of mass protests (United States Army Field Manual 19-15 under Operation Garden Plot, entitled „Civil Disturbances“ was issued in 1985)
In early 2006, tax revenues were allocated to building modern internment camp facilities. In January 2006, Kellogg Brown and Roots, which at the time was a subsidiary of Halliburton, received a $385 million contract from the Department of Homeland Security’s Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE):
„The contract, which is effective immediately [January 2006], provides for establishing temporary detention and processing capabilities to augment existing ICE Detention and Removal Operations (DRO) Program facilities in the event of an emergency influx of immigrants into the U.S., or to support the rapid development of new programs…
The contract may also provide migrant detention support to other U.S. Government organizations in the event of an immigration emergency, as well as the development of a plan to react to a national emergency, such as a natural disaster. (KBR, 24 January 2006, emphasis added)
The stated objectives of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) are to:
„protect national security and uphold public safety by targeting criminal networks and terrorist organizations that seek to exploit vulnerabilities in our immigration system, in our financial networks, along our border, at federal facilities and elsewhere in order to do harm to the United States. The end result is a safer, more secure America“ (ICE homepage)
The US media is mum on the issue of the internment camps on US soil. While casually acknowledging the multimillion dollar contract granted to Halliburton’s subsidiary, the news reports largely focused their attention on possible „cost overruns“ (similar to those which occurred with KBR in Iraq).
What is the political intent and purpose of these camps? The potential use of these internment facilities to detain American citizens under a martial law situation are not an object of media debate or discussion.
Combat Units Assigned to the Homeland
In the last months of the Bush administration, prior to the November 2008 presidential elections, the Department of Defense ordered the recall of the 3rd Infantry’s 1st Brigade Combat Team from Iraq. The relocation of a combat unit from the war theater to domestic front is an integral part of the Homeland Security agenda. The BCT was assigned to assist in law enforcement activities within the US.
The BCT combat unit was attached to US Army North, the Army’s component of US Northern Command (USNORTHCOM). The 1st BCT and other combat units would be called upon to perform specific military functions in the case of civil unrest:
The 1st BCT’s soldiers also will learn how to use “the first ever nonlethal package that the Army has fielded,” 1st BCT commander Col. Roger Cloutier said, referring to crowd and traffic control equipment and nonlethal weapons designed to subdue unruly or dangerous individuals without killing them.(
(See Gina Cavallaro, Brigade homeland tours start Oct. 1, Army Times, September 8, 2008).
Under the proposed withdrawal of US forces from Iraq under the Obama administration, one expects that other combat units will be brought home from the war theater and reassigned in the United States.
The evolving national security scenario is characterized by a mesh of civilian and military institutions:
-Army combat units working with civilian law enforcement, with the stated mission to curb „social unrest“.
- the establishment of new internment camps under civilian jurisdiction located on US military facilities.
The FEMA internment camps are part of the Continuity of Government (COG), which would be put in place in the case of martial law.
The internment camps are intended to „protect the government“ against its citizens, by locking up protesters as well as political activists who might challenge the legitimacy of the Administration’s national security, economic or military agenda.
Spying on Americans: The Big Brother Data Bank
Related to the issue of internment and mass protests, how will data on American citizens be collected?
How will individuals across America be categorized?
What are the criteria of the Department of Homeland Security?
In a 2004 report of the Homeland Security Council entitled Planning Scenarios, pertaining to the defense of the Homeland, the following categories of potential „conspirators“ were identified:
„foreign [Islamic] terrorists“ ,
„domestic radical groups“, [antiwar and civil rights groups]
„state sponsored adversaries“ ["rogue states", "unstable nations"]
„disgruntled employees“ [labor and union activists].
In June of last year, the Bush administration issued a National Security Presidential Directive (NSPD 59- HSPD 24) entitled Biometrics for Identification and Screening to Enhance National Security (For Further details see Michel Chossudovsky, „Big Brother“ Presidential Directive: „Biometrics for Identification and Screening to Enhance National Security“, Global Research, June 2008)
Adopted without public debate or Congressional approval, its relevant procedures are far-reaching. They are related to the issue of civil unrest. They are also part of the logic behind the establishment of FEMA internment camps under HR 645. .
NSPD 59 (Biometrics for Identification and Screening to Enhance National Security) goes far beyond the narrow issue of biometric identification, it recommends the collection and storage of „associated biographic“ information, meaning information on the private lives of US citizens, in minute detail, all of which will be „accomplished within the law“:
„The contextual data that accompanies biometric data includes information on date and place of birth, citizenship, current address and address history, current employment and employment history, current phone numbers and phone number history, use of government services and tax filings. Other contextual data may include bank account and credit card histories, plus criminal database records on a local, state and federal level. The database also could include legal judgments or other public records documenting involvement in legal disputes, child custody records and marriage or divorce records.“(See Jerome Corsi, June 2008)
The directive uses 9/11 and the „Global War on Terrorism“ as an all encompassing justification to wage a witch hunt against dissenting citizens, establishing at the same time an atmosphere of fear and intimidation across the land.
It also calls for the integration of various data banks as well as inter-agency cooperation in the sharing of information, with a view to eventually centralizing the information on American citizens.
In a carefully worded text, NSPD 59 „establishes a framework“ to enable the Federal government and its various police and intelligence agencies to:
„use mutually compatible methods and procedures in the collection, storage, use, analysis, and sharing of biometric and associated biographic and contextual information of individuals in a lawful and appropriate manner, while respecting their information privacy and other legal rights under United States law.“
The NSPD 59 Directive recommends: „actions and associated timelines for enhancing the existing terrorist-oriented identification and screening processes by expanding the use of biometrics“.
The procedures under NSPD 59 are consistent with an earlier June 2005 decision which consisted increating a „domestic spy service“, under the auspices of the FBI. (For further details see Michel Chossudovsky, Bush Administration creates „Secret State Police“, June 30, 2005)
Working hand in glove with Homeland Security (DHS), the proposed „domestic intelligence department“ would combine FBI counterterrorism, intelligence and espionage operations into a single service.
The new department operating under the auspices of the FBI would have the authority to „seize the property of people deemed to be helping the spread of WMD“: They would be able to „spy on people in America suspected of terrorism or having critical intelligence information, even if they are not suspected of committing a crime.“ (NBC Tonight, 29 June 2005).\

AMERICA’S „WAR ON TERRORISM“
by Michel Chossudovsky
CLICK TO ORDER
America’s „War on Terrorism“
In this new and expanded edition of Michel Chossudovsky’s 2002 best seller, the author blows away the smokescreen put up by the mainstream media, that 9/11 was an attack on America by „Islamic terrorists“. Through meticulous research, the author uncovers a military-intelligence ploy behind the September 11 attacks, and the cover-up and complicity of key members of the Bush Administration.
The expanded edition, which includes twelve new chapters focuses on the use of 9/11 as a pretext for the invasion and illegal occupation of Iraq, the militarisation of justice and law enforcement and the repeal of democracy.
According to Chossudovsky, the „war on terrorism“ is a complete fabrication based on the illusion that one man, Osama bin Laden, outwitted the $40 billion-a-year American intelligence apparatus. The „war on terrorism“ is a war of conquest. Globalisation is the final march to the „New World Order“, dominated by Wall Street and the U.S. military-industrial complex.
September 11, 2001 provides a justification for waging a war without borders. Washington’s agenda consists in extending the frontiers of the American Empire to facilitate complete U.S. corporate control, while installing within America the institutions of the Homeland Security State.
Chossudovsky peels back layers of rhetoric to reveal a complex web of deceit aimed at luring the American people and the rest of the world into accepting a military solution which threatens the future of humanity.
The last chapter includes an analysis of the London 7/7 Bomb Attacks.
