THE DESCENDANTS OF THE MERCHANT OF VENICE IN ACTION IN DETROIT
FED JUDGE WILL ISSUE VERDICT DEC. 3 ON LEGALITY OF DETROIT DECLARING BANKRUPTCY; NATURAL LAW REQUIRES GLASS STEAGALL
November 26, 2013 • 3:23PM
Federal Bankruptcy Judge Steven Rhodes said in a court filing yesterday, that on Dec. 3, he will hold a hearing at 9 am to discuss his verdict on whether to authorize the Ch. 9 bankrupcty filing by the city of Detroit; his written statement will be made available later. Rhodes’ action is considered highly unusual, compared to standard law practice; he is expected to speak very carefully on the record, in order to avoid grounds for appeal.
In citation of a debt of $18 billion, the Detroit bankruptcy filing is the largest in U.S. history, but is also one of the most blatant trans-Atlantic examples, of the gutting of the physical economy, and the predations by a swarm of mega-banks, which foisted swaps and other financial rip-offs of city finances. Detroit’s situation alone exemplifies why there must be a re-institution of the Glass-Steagall law, and a bankruptcy-reorganization of the national economy.
The Detroit bankrupcty filing was made in July by a cohort of those desiring to gut the city, including the governor and state appointed emergency manager Kevin Orr. The filing is contested by city workers and constituents on various grounds, including that there has been no good faith approach to the public good, in the negotiations, in the assertions of insolvency, and in the demands by the city emergency proposals to cut city worker pensions, sell assets and otherwise demolish what remains of Detroit.
There are thousands of other cities, counties and various local governments in extreme, impossible financial circumstances, in particular throughout the cities of the former industrial heartland of North America—the Great Lakes states.
In Pennsylvania, for example, there are 21 localities on the state’s “financially distressed” roster, mostly in the beaten-down former coal and steel counties. Dozens of cities and townships, including the state capital, have called on Washington, D.C. to re-instate Glass-Steagall and re-start the economy.
In 1987, “Act 47” was passed by Pennsylvania, under which the state could declare a locality in financial trouble, and impose severe austerity measures, called “restructuring.” The roster (and date of listing) includes Pittsburgh (2003) and many nearby Allegheny County former heavy industry centers: Clairton (1988), Duquesne (1991), Rankin (1989), Braddock (1988); as well as Johnstown (1992), in the coal county of Cambria; Altoona (2012), a former rail-machining center; and many of the old eastern coal centers, West Hazelton (2003), Nanticoke (2006), Scranton (1992), and finally, Harrisburg (2010), the state capital. ” http://larouchepac.com/node/29021
” …….Some experts are now estimating that the payments to the megabanks UBS and Bank of America, which Detroit faces on the “interest-rate swaps” derivatives it was conned into buying, may even be considerably larger than the $225 million reported in EIR’s “Detroit Facts”. According to both the Financial Times and columnist Yves Smith’s Naked Capitalism blog, the city may face immediate looting of $700 million, on top of more than $100 million a year lost to the city for the past eight years on these derivatives bets. The appointment of Kevyn Orr as emergency manager by Gov. Rick Snyder on March 14, was itself a “credit event” potentially triggering a $400 million derivatives payment by the city, one which Orr and the banks may be “not bringing up” until bankruptcy court hearings start…….” http://larouchepac.com/node/27564
” Cities and counties are, however, beginning to pay the costs of Detroit “emergency manager” Kevyn Orr’s dirty work for UBS, Bank of America, and their ilk, in steadily rising municipal bond interest rates. Orr said in an early interview that he “didn’t care” what impact his actions had on municipal bond rates, as long as he made the cuts in Detroit. Already, four Michigan counties/cities have had to withdraw bond issues in the past week: Genessee County (A2 rating), $53 million issue; Saginaw County (Aa3 rating), $60 million issue; Battle Creek (AA) $16 million school bond issue; and Hamtramck, a school bond issue. All were contemplating exorbitant rates of 6% or higher. Chicago’s treasurer announced on Aug. 6 that the city’s annual interest cost estimates have risen by $2 million in past two weeks.” http://larouchepac.com/node/27666

” The fight for a Glass-Steagall type banking sepearation in Switzerland is now reaching the boiling point, with the Swiss Banking Association being forced to come out in the open and attack proposed legislation in Switzerland for Bank Separation, while a grouping of political forces are now consolidating their fight to force the legislation. ………………………….
UBS chief Sergio Ermotti, on the contrary, chose to declare war in an interview with the economic magazine L’Agefi. While the apparent subject of the interview was the UBS gains from its investments in Vodafone, his remarks came down to an attack on the bank separation initiative, and, in particular, on SPP leader Christoph Blocher. In view of those financial gains, Ermotti said, it is understandable why people who want to strengthen the Swiss financial center and its banks, keep pushing bank separation. “It is also fundamentally difficult to carry out a professional discussion on the issue,” he protested….. ” http://larouchepac.com/node/28272 http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/politics/8875360/Taxman-accused-of-letting-Vodafone-off-8-billion.html
