What’s interesting about vaccine-phoria is that it’s largely been
contained to just the one part of the bond market. Nominal Treasury yields at
the long end have surged, while those at the shorter end have moved up a bit,
too. Predictably, the calls for the BOND ROUT!!!! have grown, typically
referencing the guaranteed end of the so-called 40-year bond “bull.” If the
10-year rate gets over 1%, they say, that breaks some pattern on some chart
that means something to someone somewhere. Stop yourself if you’ve heard this
before.
…. In short, vaccine-phoria looks to be limited to Treasury shorts rather
than the broad-based recognition of stirred up reflation.

Was Canada’s COVID response inflationary?
On Inflation,
QE, and Canada’s Fiscal Deficit
Given the recent unprecedented actions taken by both the Government of
Canada and the Bank of Canada in response to the pandemic, it is understandable
that investors are beginning to ask serious questions about the potential
economic ramifications of the government’s recent large-scale rescue package.
Of chief concern appears to be the belief that the Government of Canada, aided
by the Bank of Canada, has effected both an unsustainable increase in the
national debt as well as a large injection of new money into the economy which
is destined to fuel future inflation.
With respect to inflation, one of the concerns often raised is the Bank
of Canada’s foray into Quantitative Easing (or QE, for short), in which it
purchases Government of Canada bonds from the private banking sector in
exchange for newly-created bank reserves. It is unnecessary to wade into the
details of whether QE actually constitutes “printing money”, as the answer is
somewhat technical and ultimately unimportant to the final conclusion. What is
important is that the operation results in no increase in financial net wealth
for the private sector, and therefore no potential increase in spending. Where
the private sector before owned a bond, they now have cash. They may indeed
decide to redeploy this cash into financial markets, which may have the effect
of driving up asset prices further, but because the private sector is not any
wealthier as a result of the operation, they are no more likely to spend this
injection of wealth on goods and services. Furthermore, the inability of QE to
increase general prices is also the conclusion drawn from the real-world
experience of QE in the US and other developed countries.
The second concern often raised is that the Bank of Canada is directly
financing the government deficit, in the sense that the Bank of Canada has been
purchasing newly issued bonds from the government in exchange for newly created
money deposited in the Government of Canada’s account at the Bank of Canada.
While the Bank of Canada has been purchasing T-Bills at an unprecedented rate,
we know from an examination of the Bank of Canada’s balance sheet that
government deposit balances created by the Bank of Canada were simply allowed
to pile up and have not been “spent” into the broad economy. In fact, as the
treasury bills that the Bank of Canada holds have been maturing, government deposits
at the Bank of Canada have been similarly decreasing. We are therefore led to
the conclusion that while the Bank of Canada created large amounts of money for
the government, this money was never spent and is currently being unwound
(destroyed) as of the time of this writing. This is because Bank of Canada
purchases of government debt was primarily used to support bond prices and
lower interest rates, not to finance government deficit spending. This
operation was therefore also benign from an inflationary sense.
Third, the concern over large deficits causing inflation is potentially a
valid one. When the government runs a deficit, they borrow money from the
private sector, giving the private sector a bond in exchange for cash. This
operation initially leaves the net financial wealth of the private sector
unchanged. When the government then spends or transfers these borrowed funds to
the private sector, it serves to increase private sector net wealth by an
amount equal to the government’s deficit spending. This increase in private
sector financial wealth represents an increase in the potential claims on real
wealth in the economy. In other words, if the private sector seeks to spend
their newfound financial wealth on real goods and services, it may serve to bid
up prices in the overall economy. Given the current economic uncertainty,
however, the general public has clearly chosen not to spend the entirety of the
newly injected money, rendering inflation tame. Ultimately, however, whether or
not significant inflation occurs depends on the tendency of the private sector
to spend or not spend their accumulated wealth, and the rate of growth of
“real” wealth over time (ie. the growth rate of goods and services). If the
economy grows significantly as a result of increased government spending, the
amount of real things in the economy being bid on will also increase, and
inflation may not materialize even as the private sector seeks to spend a
portion of the injected wealth. It is highly debatable, however, whether government
spending in response to COVID has done anything to increase future productivity
and output.
Fourth, with respect to the deficit, it is important to remember that for
a country like Canada, which issues its own currency, the debt is always
“affordable” in a nominal sense. The Bank of Canada can work with the
government to set borrowing costs at practically zero, or merely print the
money if push came to shove. The real danger is that the economy simply cannot
absorb all of the increased spending that occurs from large scale deficits,
resulting in high inflation as the private sector attempts to spend their
increasing financial wealth on a relatively smaller pool of real wealth. In
this case, to tame inflation, either the Bank of Canada would need to dramatically
increase interest rates to incentivize the hoarding of wealth over spending, or
the government would need to run a surplus to remove financial wealth from the
private sector. Both increased taxation on existing wealth holders and
significantly higher interest rates would undoubtedly negatively impact many
Canadians with significant financial assets.

Progress, stagnation, and flying cars: A review of Where Is My Flying Car? by J. Storrs Hall
Suppose you were to reach into the mirror universe, where everything is
inverted, and pull out a book that is the exact opposite of Robert Gordon’s The
Rise and Fall of American Growth.
Instead of being written by a scholarly economic historian steeped in the
study of the past, it would be written by an engineer who has spent his career
on futuristic technology. Instead of coming from a prestigious academic press,
it would be self-published, with misformatted tables and a cover featuring
garish three-dimensional lettering. Instead of sticking to extremely conservative
predictions about future technologies, it would speculate audaciously about the
limits of the possible, from nanotech to cold fusion. Instead of a sober survey
of economic history in one country and time period, it would range widely
through engineering, physics and philosophy, exploring the power-to-weight
ratio of jet turbines in one chapter, and describing the rise of the
counterculture in the next. And instead of proclaiming the death of innovation
and the end of growth, it would paint a bold vision of an ambitious
technological future.
That book has leapt out of the mirror universe and into an Amazon Kindle
edition (priced at 𝜋 dollars): Where Is My
Flying Car? A Memoir of Future Past, by J. Storrs Hall.
Hall sets out to tackle the title question: why don’t we have flying cars
yet? And indeed, several chapters in the book are devoted to deep dives on the
history, engineering, and economics of flying cars. But to fully answer the
question, Hall must go much broader and deeper, because he quickly concludes
that the barriers to flying cars are not technological or economic—they are
cultural and political. To explain the flying car gap is to explain the Great
Stagnation itself.

Everything You
Don't Want to Know About Covid Vaccines (Because You Can't Be Bullish Anymore)
In such a highly polarized,
politicized environment, is such a scrupulously objective study even possible?
… And then there's the
self-interest of those seeking rapid approval of the vaccines. As noted in the
independent.co.uk article referenced above:
"But perhaps the
most important question to ask about Moderna's new messenger RNA vaccine is not
scientific nor technical but one of ethics and morality. When it comes to the
United States and its private healthcare system, pharmaceutical companies have
a long and sordid history of putting profits over people and human lives."
Why would anyone trust that Big Pharma corporations will act in the
public good rather than in pursuit of maximizing profits?
The mad rush of profiteering
Big Pharma corporations to own the first vaccine approved will create needless
and potentially dangerous confusion about which vaccine actually works best
over the longer term.
First, A Vaccine Approval.
Then "Chaos and Confusion. (NY Times)
"It has not yet
dawned on hardly anybody the amount of complexity and chaos and confusion that
will happen in a few short months," said Dr. Gregory Poland, the
director of the Vaccine Research Group at the Mayo Clinic.
"I can see people
reading a lot into even minor differences that could just be statistical chance,"
said Natalie Dean, a biostatistician at the University of Florida.
The FDA has set the bar very
low for Covid vaccines: the vaccine only has to be effective for 50% of those
taking it to be approved. But as noted above, Big Pharma companies have
mastered the art of statistical legerdemain that skew results so they look far
more conclusive than they actually are.
If you've actually pored
over Phase III drug trial results (I have), you find uncertainties have been
papered over with statistical analysis techniques. Many medications are approved that only work
less than half of the time in the real world.

The Corporate
Media Gaslighting Campaign That Failed
If you’re making the mistake
of getting all your news from the six corporations that control most of the
American mainstream media, then you’ve heard that the 2020 presidential
election ended days ago, Joe Biden was declared the winner, and the transition
period between the incoming Biden administration and the outgoing Trump White
House has already begun.
And you’d be wrong about
that, because the corporate news media is deliberately misleading you.
The truth is that, as I
write this column on Friday, Nov. 13, despite what the media is claiming, the
actual results of the presidential election are still undecided. A hotly
contested race for the White House ended with no clear winner on election
night, and indeed there might not be a clear winner for some weeks yet. As
troubling as that is all by itself, the corporate media using it as an
opportunity to launch one of the most brazen gaslighting campaigns ever is
infuriating to me…
On both sides of the
Atlantic, a resurgent political centre has declared war on the Left – because
it senses an opportunity to return to pro-corporate policies.
Ed Curtin: Everybody Knows
the Fight was Fixed
For the U.S.A. is not a
democracy; it is an oligarchy run by the wealthy for the wealthy.
This is not a big
secret. Everybody knows this is true;
knows the electoral system is sheer show business with the presidential
extravaganza drawing the big money from corporate lobbyists, investment
bankers, credit card companies, lawyers, business and hedge fund executives,
Silicon Valley honchos, think tanks, Wall Street gamblers, millionaires,
billionaires, et. al. Biden and Trump
spent over 3 billion dollars on the election. They are owned by the money
people.
Both are old men with long,
shameful histories. A quick inquiry will show how the rich have profited
immensely from their tenures in office.
There is not one hint that they could change and have a miraculous
conversion while in future office, like JFK.
Neither has the guts or the intelligence. They are nowhere men who fear the fate that
John Kennedy faced squarely when he turned against the CIA and the war
machine. They join the craven company of
Johnson, Ford, Carter, Reagan G.H.W. Bush, Clinton, George W. Bush, and Obama.
It’s now almost two weeks
since the most crooked, rigged, fraudulent election in U.S. history. The
engineered elevation of a handsy, sniffy, senile, empty portal, trojan horse by
billionaire oligarchs, their Silicon Valley techno-geek social media censorship
police, and the corporate media propaganda mouthpieces looks like it might
succeed. Republican cucks like Romney and even the pliable Fox News talking
heads have acquiesced to this third attempt during this ongoing coup like
obedient lapdogs positioning themselves to profit from doing the bidding of
their global oligarch masters.
…
The level of fake news media
propaganda about the “most secure fairest election in history”, and the
vociferous blatant systematic censorship by Twitter, Facebook, and Google of
anyone who dares to question the approved narrative of “a mostly fraud free
election” on their social media platforms is all the proof a critical thinking
person needs to realize this election was stolen…
How the
Democrats Weaponized a Pandemic to Beat Donald Trump
The one question that
continues to haunt political observers is ‘How was Joe Biden, 77, able to get
away with such a low-energy, low-carb campaign, in what has been described as
the most consequential election in U.S. history?’ Let’s be so bold as to peek
into the brain of this political genius who was somehow able to upset the 5D
chess grandmaster of our times, Donald J. Trump.
As the Republican incumbent
was flying non-stop to multiple rallies around the country in the days leading
up to Nov. 3, Biden preferred to remain hunkered down in his basement, leaving
for the occasional ice cream cone, or photo-op at some airfield where he waved
to imaginary crowds on a deserted runway. Judging by such lackadaisical
behavior, it almost seemed that Biden knew he had nothing to worry about. And
perhaps he didn’t.
Pollster:
It's Curious How Biden Underperformed Hillary Clinton In Every City...Except
These Four.
He cites Richard Baris of
Big Data Poll who noted something funny about Biden's numbers in the cities,
how it lagged behind Clinton's numbers, but shot off to the moon in these four
cities. Just take a look at the states in which these cities are located as
well…
How curious that, as Baris
notes, “Trump won the largest non-white vote share for a Republican
presidential candidate in 60 years. Biden underperformed Hillary Clinton in
every major metro area around the country, save for Milwaukee, Detroit, Atlanta
and Philadelphia.”
Robert Barnes, the foremost
election analyst, observes in these “big cities in swing states run by
Democrats…the vote even exceeded the number of registered voters.”
Trump’s victories in
Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin were on target until, in the middle of
the night, counting was arbitrarily halted. Miraculously, several hundred
thousand votes – all for Biden – were mysteriously ‘found’; Trump’s real leads
subsequently vanished.
ELECTION 2020: ‘Sleepy Joe’s’
Task Is to Put Liberal America Back to Sleep
Dmitry Orlov: “Watch this!”
Within the sweeping panoramic tableau of the 2020 election, Trump (our hero) appears bathed in a golden sunset glow of nostalgia for lost American greatness which he forever promises to rekindle. Rest assured, Trump or no Trump, America will never be great again. But Trump’s magic halo extends out from his resplendent orange cranial plumage and enfolds all those who pine for the lost Pax Americana and fear and loathe what America is fast becoming
… Arrayed against our fearless orange-hued leader, who at 74 is no spring chicken himself, is a ghoulish gaggle of geriatric gerontocrats.
There is Joe Biden, 77, whose brain ran away and joined a circus some years ago but who imagines himself to be president-elect, or senator, or vice-president, or something. Having spent eight years lurking in the shadows as Obama’s VP, Biden is as fit to lead as a pig is kosher after rubbing its side against a corner of a synagogue. To assist Biden in his dodderings there is his party-appointed nanny, Kamala Harris, a mere slip of a girl at 56.
Also haunting the balcony of the American mausoleum is Nancy Pelosi, 80, who still runs the House of Representatives even though proper employment for her at this point would be up on a pole keeping the birds off the corn. There is also Bernie Sanders, 79, a sad pagliaccio whose permanent role in the political Commedia dell’Arte that the Democratic Party stages every four years is to simulate democracy by cheerleading crowds of young imbeciles in Act I, to feign death after falling off his pogo stick in Act II, and to stagger to his feet, wave and smile for the curtain call.
Last but not least, there is the horrid harpy Hillary Clinton, who is relatively young at 73 but whose putrid smell and cadaverous, ghastly visage are not longer fit for public display except in most delicately contrived circumstances. Hidden even further backstage is the suppurating cadaver of George Soros who, at 90, is still pulling the strings and wreaking havoc in the US and around the world. (His minions had recently spread color revolution to Armenia, in turn causing it to “elect” Pashinyan, a choice imbecile and a traitor, who then lost a big chunk of Armenian territory to Azerbaijan.) I could mention quite a few other financial corpses and oligarchic cadavers, but will refrain, to avoid giving you nightmares. Nobody lives forever, not even Henry Kissinger, 97, and so all we have to do is wait.
… In healthy societies, older leaders age out and make room for younger leaders who take over for them after a lengthy period of study and apprenticeship. In sick societies, older leaders cling to power with no one competent there to replace them and once they die are replaced by traitors and criminals. The USSR and the USA are two such examples.
…
To complete this ghastly tableau, in the ongoing US presidential election, an almost-dead candidate and his charming assistant have been voted for by an army of the undead: voters that have mailed in their ballots in spite of being deceased. I have spot-checked a bit of the incriminating evidence myself, and I am pretty sure that there were over 11,000 such voters in a single Michigan county alone. But this is by no means a local scam: among many other vote-counting shenanigans, it appears that there was a nationwide effort to order mail-in ballots for dead people, fill them out for Biden, and mail them in. You might say that this is a human rights issue: why deprive dead people of their right to vote? Isn’t it about time to stop discriminating against the dead?
… In any case, dead voters for Biden turn out to be just the tip of an entire iceberg of election fraud.
…
If you believe even for a moment that I am scandalized, disgusted and outraged by this trampling of the sacred principles of democracy, then pardon me while I shake my head sardonically while quietly chuckling to myself. No, I am not the least bit upset. In fact, this development fills me with optimism for the future. I believe that this ghastly institutional failure is a wonderful development that offers great hope to the rest of the world, and perhaps even to the US itself, although the political environment in the US appears to be rather hopeless irrespective of how horribly or wonderfully its ridiculous electoral system can be made to function.
In any case, it would be futile to try to give the US some semblance of a democratic election system. It would be like trying to clean up a beach by picking up empty beer cans around a beached whale. The presidency, after four years of ham-handed efforts to unseat a president using false evidence, is a failed institution. Congress, which now nonchalantly overspends federal revenue by a factor of three, is a fiscal zombie. The Federal Reserve, which is now a pure pyramid scheme, is a financial zombie. And then there is the rest of the ridiculously bloated US economy, which is waiting for a stiff gust of wind to cause ephemeral wealth to flood out of stocks and bonds and into cash, much of it evaporating in the process and the rest causing a tsunami of consumer price inflation.
In the course of this spectacle, the false image of the US as a shining city on a hill, a beacon for huddled masses yearning to breathe free and a beneficent global policeman safeguarding “universal human rights,” enforcing “universal human values” and spreading “freedom and democracy” around the world is being stomped into the dirt, having excrement poured all over it, and being stomped into the dirt some more. As the curtain descends on this final act of Pax Americana, the image of the orange enfant terrible and the senile puppet with his child-nurse in tow playing on the teeter-totter of electoral dysfunction on the playground of second childhood will forever remain etched into the retinas of the whole world. The whole world will then be able to move on and look for worthier role models and for less corrupt policemen. And that’s progress!

Cecilia Muñoz,
Who Defended Family Separations Under Obama, Joins Biden Transition Team
Joe Biden has named
President Obama’s former top immigration adviser Cecilia Muñoz to his
transition team. During her time in the White House, Muñoz often justified
Obama’s harsh immigration enforcement policies, including the administration’s
deportation of thousands of Central American children and its decision to kill
an executive order that would have halted deportations.
The appointments should
provide a rude awakening to anyone who believed a Biden administration could be
pressured to move in a progressive direction, especially on foreign policy.
This Isn’t

This word “moderate” which
the AP news agency keeps bleating is of course complete nonsense. Standing in
the middle ground between two corporatist warmongering parties does not make
you a moderate, it makes you a corporatist warmonger. Flournoy is no more
“moderate” than the “moderate rebels” in Syria which mass media outlets like AP
praised for years until it became undeniable that they were largely Al Qaeda
affiliates; the only reason such a position can be portrayed as mainstream and
moderate is because vast fortunes have been poured into making it that way.
As we discussed recently,
Flournoy is a bloodthirsty imperialist and war profiteer who peace activists
Medea Benjamin and Nicolas JS Davies accurately labeled an “angel of death” for
the American empire. As leader of the laughably titled Department of “Defense”
she can be expected to oversee the same agendas of unipolar global domination
at the expense of rivers of blood as her predecessors, in more or less exactly
the same ways.
There is nothing special or
noteworthy about a murderous ghoul rising to the top of a war machine that can
only be run by murderous ghouls. But because Michele Flournoy is a woman, we
will see her appointment as “Defense” Secretary applauded and upheld as a major
landmark for women by a political/media class which has never cared about women
beyond their ability to turn the gears of the machine.
