I wouldn't trust Paypal with any large amount of cash, myself.
I have liked Interactive Brokers.
Sign up and I'll split their referral bonus with ya ($200). That's a business proposition!

Only when gold is used as a barter system does the above article make sense. A dollar never has had a "value". It is a medium of exchange. |

survivalblog.com/2021/09/27/dangers-loom-fragile-u-s-economy-brandon-smith/"There are establishment forces at play that seek to impose a permanent authoritarian presence within our nation in the name of Covid “safety.” This includes lockdown mandates and restrictions on economic participation for the unvaccinated (including being unable to keep a job). At the same time, only 53% of the public has been fully vaccinated against Covid. A significant number of the unvaccinated seem likely to dig in their heels and will refuse to comply. We are at an impasse. With incessant fear mongering over the latest covid variants and the government obsession with 100% vaccination, the pro- and anti-vaccine groups are squaring off . It is a conflict between those who see their submission to the vaccination as a badge of personal responsibility and civic-mindedness versus those who see it as merely an excuse for authoritarianism. Unless pro-vax people choose to stand down and walk away from the fight, our economic future will grow increasingly unstable. This is the foreboding backdrop of our economic tale, and it is important to keep in mind that the technocratic exploitation of the covid non-crisis as a push for supremacy is going to color everything that happens in our financial system from now on. You cannot talk about our economic condition without including the effects of the pandemic theater." Curious how those more economically savvy than I am feel about the last paragraph?

Sure seems that way. Just like the climate doomsday machine, the covid battle plan seems similar. They have(?) adopted Goebbels concept of "the big lie". Mix up a batch of small truths, semi-truths and outright falsifications ... and repeat continually in various mixtures until the general public can no longer tell the difference ... and gets tired of trying ... or goes into oblivious hibernation. Why would the economy be any different? If the more-usually accurate poles are to be believed, a sizeable part of the public is not buying the message of the current government. As the British found out at Lexington/Concord it sometimes only takes a small spark to ignite a mighty conflagration. And this administration is not particularly good at recognizing sparkable situations ... or much of anything else. But they keep pushing and ... I would be interested in a point-by-point discusion of the major points in the "dangers loom" article. Imagine a sizeable portion of the rent-delinquent households out on the street. No place to stay? No jobs? Would it look something like the following description of the Great Depression? Or are we beyond that? Which new war will attempt to deal with that? harkeycm.weebly.com/uploads/4/0/8/7/40877465/the_great_depression__three_perspectives.pdf |

cluborlov.wordpress.com/2021/09/15/a-stalingrad-for-natural-gas/European natural gas hub spot price has surpassed $900 per thousand cubic meters with the psychologically important threshold of $1 per cubic meter not far off. This is an astronomically high price that is likely to bankrupt a lot of European energy companies while causing their customers to die of exposure this winter. Just in the UK, where around 10 thousand people freeze to death during a normal winter with normal prices, so far PfP Energy, MoneyPlus Energy, People’s Energy and Utility Point have kissed the world good-bye, their customers getting picked up by the government regulator Ofgem. Acting wisely, Ofgem raised the annual price cap for a typical household by £139 to £1,277. Just to make things even more interesting, the underwater cable providing electricity to the UK from France just failed, knocking 1GW out of the 2GW link. What’s behind all of this chaos and mayhem? Call it the wages of stupidity.
