ISO Love Fat Stacks


The days of sticking a wad of bills in your pocket are coming to a close - in an ISO twenty-oh-2-2 world cash will be an archeological novelty from the pre-global order. It's not easy to understand and nobody really reports on it but the lingua franca of financial transactions will change the world and the way citizens of every nation relate to their government and money (or what used to be called money). I'm not a big New World Order fan and place little faith in International bodies like the United Nations but the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), located in the happiest country on earth, is one group that gets it done - behind the scenes with little notice. For those who want to eliminate money because it's a scam, evil and unnecessary ISO 20022 is the answer to your prayers (if you pray) and it helps with practical business problems too. Companies like C24 have already built a business around ISO 20022 - why?
By leveraging a common language, or reference data model such as ISO 20022, firms can vastly improve the quality of information sent between payments, securities and internal systems. Business transactions based on the ISO 20022 standard increase the reach of firms to more customers in more locations with less concern for national boundaries and local legacy standards. This is about differentiation and survival in a larger much more competitive and standardized global market. ISO 20022 will also force consolidation in transaction flows and proprietary implementations will no longer be sustainable or acceptable. This was an objective of the European Union SEPA initiative and consolidation pressure in the EURO payments landscape is already evident.
Goodby fat stacks - it was great while it lasted but you're going to be turned into bits and bytes like everything else.

The Real Story with Gretchen Carlson

She was "sexy", but "too much hard work." I'm a regular Fox & Friends viewer (mostly in protest of the other insipid morning programs like Today and Good Morning America) so over the years I've gotten to know Gretchen Carlson pretty well. Stuck between Steve and Brian she always seemed a prudish scold with an irritating, self-righteous demeanor that I simply put up with because I figured some people in the Fox audience actually liked her persona. It was obvious that Steve and Brian did not, but they were stuck with her like so many talking heads and had to make the best of it - which they did. Besides, she was no worse than any of the other women on morning show TV - I mean, you're only going to find a certain kind of person to do this kind of work and that kind of person is the Gretchen Carlson kind. Then, one day, she was gone and replaced by Elisabeth Hasselbeck and the F&F ratings began to climb, and climb and climb - in two months view

Psycho Killer, qu'est-ce?

I came into this wicked world in the early 1960's and as a result I have born witness to America's 50 Years of Failure which includes the modern age of mass shootings by psychotic men who "go off" on a given day, for no reason at all (except "guns"), and kill scads of innocent bystanders. Back in August of 2019 a KOTCB blog post titled " Reciprocity City " explored a young  gunman  named Patrick Crusius  who drove 9 hours through the west Texas flatlands to shoot up El Paso, TX The KOTCB has commented on many of these shootings, bombings and knifings over the years -  The roots of the Boston Marathon Bombing ,  the Emanuel AME Church shooting ,  Syed Rizvan Farook and his bride Tashfeen Malik ,  Ft. Lauderdale Airport shooting ,  Nick Cruz lovesick Parkland shooting ,  the Iranian, PETA activist, Vegan Bodybuilder, YouTuber's attack on Google  and now this very oddly timed and placed "lone wolf" attack on Walmart shoppers. This list

Who voted for this guy?

Who voted for this guy? It's been ten days since the results of the Maricopa County, Arizona ballot audit were released to the public and presented at a hearing held by the state senate. This exercise in democratic accountability had been going on for months and, if reports are to be believed, was completed well over a  month before the September 24th hearing where   overwhelming proof of an illegitimate election was presented to lawmakers . The audit showed multiple irregularities, fake ballots, duplicate counts, errors, omissions and egregious acts of sabotage and obstinance by the Maricopa County board of supervisors who did everything they could to withhold and destroy evidence of wrongdoing from the citizen sleuths. The misfeasance of Arizona's political leaders was clearly defined, shocking and (for some) beyond belief but somehow these facts were discovered, organized, packaged and suppressed for MONTHS by the Cyber Ninjas who were attempting to "get to the bottom&q
