BREAKING: OCCUPY & ANONYMOUS JOIN FORCES. Our Senators and Representatives showed how little they cared about personal freedoms when they voted overwhelmingly to pass the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). The NDAA allows for the indefinite detention of individuals based merely on a suspicion or allegation of sympathizing with questionable groups or causes. This act is a prominent threat to the inalienable due process rights of every US citizen as laid out in the Constitution. It allows the military to engage in civilian law enforcement, and to suspend due process, habeas corpus or other constitutional guarantees when desired. Our congressmen passed one of the greatest threats to civil liberties in the history of the United States.

Because Of A ZeroHedge Post, Tons Of People Are Worried About A Commodity Market Meltdown On Monday. A few emails like this have hit our inbox this morning: Have you seen this CME margin thing? Isnt this global meltdown on Monday????????????
Seen on 0hedge and The Trader. What's happening? Last night the CME Group -- the futures exchange which got rocked this week by the MF Global news -- sent out an email about margin requirements, which got picked up by ZeroHedge, which wrote a post titled CME Goes To Collateral DefCon 1: Makes Maintenance Margin Equal To Initial For... The email that the CME sent out looked like this: Basically, the CME Group announced that the initial margin that traders would be required to post to make a trade would be equal to the margin required to maintain the trade, and it was interpreted as meaning that everyone would have to post more collateral to keep their margined trades on.
However, Kid Dynamite has broken it down and explained that it's totally benign. He explains: So the initial/maintenance ratios were previously greater than 1.0. Hundreds of Thousands of Consumers, Billions of $$ Move to Credit Unions. Op Cash Back. Banks on Twitter. More Small Businesses Are Pulling Their Accounts Out Of Big Banks. Even in a tight credit market, David Meinert didn't think he'd have a problem getting funding from his bank.
He was a model entrepreneur, with good credit and a profitable business earning $2 million in revenue. But when he applied for a relatively small $50,000 line of credit from Chase in late 2010, he got denied in 12 hours, with no explanation. "It was insulting and made no sense, even to the banker. And there was no one to even talk to about it," Meinert says. "It's frustrating that banks are getting billions of dollars in taxpayers' money and they're sitting on that money and not lending it to small businesses. If you're making less than $10 million, they don't care about you. " Meinert decided to turn his frustration into action. The practical incentives were compounded by his philosophical objections. Tired of bad relationships with big banks, a growing number of small-business owners seem ready to make the switch to small local banks, community banks or credit unions. 1 of 7.

US Bank President Richard Davis to disillusioned country: "Get over it" US Bank President Richard Davis addressed the 1% at a Minnesota Chamber of Commerce luncheon this afternoon while the 99% protested outside. The "Golden Boy of Wall Street," as the New York Times recently dubbed him, was there to discuss the chamber's 2012 legislative priorities -- none of which include housing, the foreclosure crisis, or banking issues, although "tax reform" is on the agenda as the body's "major policy initiative.
" Outside, a group of protesters including Occupy MNers and community leaders rallied to demand banks stop "foreclosing on the American Dream. " In a speech lasting about half an hour, Davis did not address the Occupy movement sweeping the country. The banker began his speech to the assembled fat cats by introducing the Boy Scout motto, "Be Prepared," and Minnesota's state motto, "Get prepared. " That, Davis said on numerous occasions throughout the speech, was the key to making it through this recession.
If it's raining, he counseled, "get an umbrella. " World debt comparison: The global debt clock. Corzine resigns as CEO of bankrupt MF Global. In this Jan. 9, 2011 file photo, former New Jersey Gov. Jon S. Corzine reflects on his four year term in office during an interview with The Associated Press at his home in Hoboken, N.J. File,AP Photo/Rich Schultz Updated at 9:46 a.m. ET WASHINGTON - Jon Corzine stepped down Friday from running the securities firm that collapsed after his disastrous bets on European debt. The firm, MF Global, said Corzine has resigned as chairman and CEO and will decline payments from a severance package worth $12.1 million, including cash and benefits. MF Global filed for bankruptcy protection on Monday after its bets on European debt spooked investors and trading partners. The company is under investigation by regulators and the FBI because hundreds of millions disappeared from customer accounts as it slid toward bankruptcy.
Corzine hasn't made any public appearances since MF Global's bankruptcy filing, but sources to The New York Times' Dealbook blog said that he has hired a criminal defense lawyer.
