AT&T: The Biggest Traitor to the American People?

NSA - Ft Meade
New revelations that the company who enabled the NSA to spy on the internet, which is really preparation for the coming age of asset confiscation and tax enforcement, is none other than AT&T. This is why we do not use any of their services. The New York Times reported that companies who do not protect their clients are traitors to their clients and nobody should do business with them.
Part of our long approach to releasing Socrates has been security. This is not only to prevent hackers from getting into the program, which can only be accomplished by not allowing the program to be directly online only its results, but for our high-end services to allow clients to safely input their portfolios to be tracked so Socrates can inform you when to change positions or add to them. Unlike Bloomberg, nobody on our end will be able to see your portfolio. There are two risks: FIRST, employees could have access to privileged information; SECONDLY, if we have an ability to see your portfolio, the government could subpoena us to turn over that info. I retired from making markets in gold back in 1981 when the IRS declared me to be a bank in order to gain access to our clients. So no thank you — been there, done that.
The coding of the actual AI trading and structure of analysis is done ONLY by myself. There is no employee to be bribed or compromised to get the code. That has been my personal confinement my whole life; that is what they focused on in the movie.
The only way to proceed is to eventually go public outside the USA for security reasons as well. Unless we can somehow ensure that this remains a private endeavor for the future, there is no point. It has been a choice between work and life. Perhaps the day will arrive where I will get married and try to enjoy life rather than working 7 days a week (no one in particular, what woman would put up with a chronic workaholic?).
All that requires security. What AT&T has done is real TREASON, for government is NOTsovereign, but the people are. We revolted against the monarchy — guess they forgot about that.

The Rise of a Third Party or Transcendence to a New Political Era?

President-PopularVote
QUESTION:
Question about the post. So the rise of Donald trump and Ben Carson within the Republican Party is parallel to a rise in a third party? Even if they someone won a would be a republican? I would say it’s just as good especially trump not being beholden to special interests. I would liken it to the tea party still technically repub but def another Wing.
Regards,
JL
ANSWER: The previous historic peaks in third party activity reflected the anti-establishment vote — the throw the bums out attitude. That is manifesting right now inside both parties, which is very interesting. Hillary is losing ground to the anti-system candidate Bernie Sanders, while the two lead Republican candidates, Trump and Carson, are also non-politicians.
The computer is forecasting this trend. Whether this remains within the party establishment or breaks out to a third party over the next year will be interesting to watch. Bush collapsing to just 5%, the same level as Rand Paul, shows that the establishment country club Republicans may lose control. The press is fighting hard to help the establishment for they do not want to see change either.
There could be a real revolution inside the parties. Historically, this has been a split. The Democratic-Republican Party split for the Civil War, making Lincoln the FIRST Republican president. So that was a “third party” movement so to speak. Then there was the split of the Republicans into the Teddy Roosevelt socialists called the Progressive Party. That did not last, but the Democrats adopted those concepts when FDR took the election in 1932.
Boehner-Obama-Buddies
So does this have to manifest within an actual third party candidate? No. It is the public sentiment that is the moving force. How that unfolds could be a complete revolution inside the parties where they begin to make a transcendence to the younger generation. This is fascinating. Trump is bringing in new people who have never voted before. That drives a spike directly in the heart of the Boehner crowd. The sooner we get rid of him, the better off the future will be. If Hillary or Bush take the reins of power, it will absolutely be business as usual, and they will come hunting for every penny you have ever earned to sustain their power like vampires sucking the life-blood out of the economy.

TRUMP

Tump-Donald
QUESTION:
Mr. Armstrong,
In your post today you mentioned Donald Trump would be the most qualified candidate to handle the sovereign debt crisis.  If I may ask, do you know Trump and do you think he would consider your solution for the coming crisis?
Thanks for insight.

ANSWER: No. I never advised Trump or his companies. Since he knows about defaults and debtor negotiations, he is far ahead of any professional politician. He would be far more open to practical market solutions than career politicians. Whether he would make a great president, who knows, but he would at least shake up Washington and just may open the door to people who would then step up to actually make a difference.
When I was asked if I would be willing to work in the White House during the Bush Jr. days, I laughed. First of all, I would never give up my company for a two-year job, or even a four-year job at best. Secondly, could you imagine a Senate hearing? “Oh, you advised Toyota and Mercedes against American manufacturers. How do we know you would not sell America out to your overseas clients?” I would get such a question — Hillary, no way.
Everyone I know with real world experience would NEVER take such a position for people who see the world only in a political context would grill you. So why would anyone who is actually in the field do such a thing? Those jobs are for people who have achieved nothing so they can then get pensions and speaking fees for decades afterwards. That is why nobody qualified would ever run or accept such a job. It is insane. Those who came from Goldman Sachs were there for a deliberate reason — to cut the chains that bind the banks.
