COMMENT: On The Road in Panama
by Bob Bauman, Editor
PANAMA CITY, Republic of Panama. Because I am on the road today, at a Sovereign Society conference here in this world famous offshore haven nation, I am going to let others speak for me.

GOVERNMENT FAILS US, SO WHY DO WE TRUST GOVERNMENT?
Like a phoenix rising from the ashes, Americans' trust in government is soaring after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. It is difficult to understand how the failures of the CIA, the FBI, and the Federal Aviation Administration could generate a blank check for all other federal agencies to exert more control over 270 million Americans.

ANTI-TERRORISM BILLS GO TOO FAR

MITCHELL POINTS TO SMOKING GUN
Daniel Mitchell of the Heritage Foundation in Washington points out the ´anti-terrorist´ bill pending in the US House contains a provision on "Jurisdictions of Primary Money Laundering Concern" that defines dirty money nations, in part, as those that "offer special tax advantages" and those where "the volume of transactions relative to the size of its economy..." is large. In other words, tax havens are automatically now to be presumed as suspect money laundering centers.

Terrorist attacks are blamed for a surprise "slowdown" that is rocking the U.S. economy. Suddenly corporate profits drop, investors are less sure, consumer confidence is shattered. But the writing was already on the wall! According to one of the world's leading economists, worse is yet to come. Experience proves that if you've been listening to the Fed's "new paradigm" propaganda you may be ruined.
