Blogman's Notes: In my video update yesterday, I spoke about the Too big to fail banks like JP Morgan, Deutsche Bank and others being allowed to fail; in reality allowing the truth about their already failed state to come to light. In the latest Keiser Report, Max Kesier and Stacey Herbert address many of the same issues I discussed. In the article below, Peter Cooper also discusses the idea of the Great Global Reset. In my estimation it would be much more than a RESET, it would be an entirely new system, a more beastly one than the present one, that would take its place. Nonetheless, the idea of the inevitability of a Total Collapse is now being discussed by more and more, not just in alternative media but also by the mainstream media. I think the second half of 2012 may indeed be an Apocalyptic one, brace yourselves!

Kesier Report 307: Zombie Bank Apocalypse
It was trouble in the banking sector that gave us the biggest warning then, namely subprime lending and the first bank run in the UK for more than a century at Northern Rock.
JP Morgan
This time we have the eurozone sovereign debt crisis, and headlines like JP Morgan’s $9 billion loss on its ‘London Whale’ trading book and a half-billion dollar fine for Barclays Bank over interest rate fixing.
The economic backdrop is also equally fragile if not considerably worse because global central banks have orchestrated so much in terms of massively expensive bailouts in the interim.
Their efforts are ever bigger and each shot of heroin for the global economy delivers a shorter and shorter period of calm.
European summits come and go, promising final solutions that never quite seem to work. Germany will not pay for euro bonds but then this is an unworkable solution and would only rack up more debt.
A great reset of the global economy is called for with debts forgiven, banks bankrupted and closed, the banking sector reformed wholesale and currencies pegged to a new IMF monetary unit backed by gold and silver.
How long will it take for this to play out? We are reaching the end of the road. Yields on Spanish and Italian bonds remain dangerously high and these countries are too big to bailout.
Growth pacts of $180 billion from European leaders today convince nobody. There is no substance there and the figures are conjured out of thin air. What conditions will be attached to the Spanish bank bailout?
Global reset
It will be the global financial markets that sort this mess out, but only by creating what first looks a much larger mess.
This is not going to be a comfortable period for investors unless they take the proper precautionary measures now and time is running out.
