EY’s Wirecard scandal a reminder of ‘bail-in’ danger
 
Bail In Antidote
 
 
 

A corporate collapse in Germany that may be little known to most Australians is being compared to the 2001 bankruptcy of infamous US energy trading giant Enron. Dominant cashless payments processor Wirecard collapsed on 25 June owing US$4 billion, with billions missing from bank accounts pointing to fraud on a massive scale. At the centre of the scandal is auditor EY (Ernst and Young), one of the Big Four global auditing oligopoly, which didn’t do its most basic job of checking Wirecard’s money even existed.

The scandal is a timely reminder of the danger of bank bail-ins: while most of us assume the major banks are profitable and strong and our deposits are safe, that assumption depends on the reliability of bank audits. Unfortunately, the global Big Four auditing firms which monopolise bank auditing worldwide have proven again and again they cannot be trusted. To protect the public from the possibility of similar financial collapses occurring here, including of the banks, which may trigger bail-ins, Australians must demand politicians pass two bills drafted by the Citizens Party that are currently before Parliament:

the Australian Banks (Government Audit) Bill 2019 introduced in the House of Representatives by Bob Katter MP in December, directing the Commonwealth Auditor-General to conduct a deep audit of the Australian banks in place of the Big Four global firms; and
the Banking Amendment (Deposits) Bill 2020 introduced by Senator Malcolm Roberts in February and currently the subject of a Senate inquiry, which clarifies the 2018 bail-in law rushed through Parliament so that its very broad language cannot be used to bail in bank deposits.

EY’s Enron

A 30 June London Telegraph article, “Why Wirecard could become EY’s Enron”, compares the role of the auditor in Wirecard’s downfall to that of Arthur Andersen, the then-Big Five accounting firm brought down by the 2001 Enron scandal. Arthur Andersen’s demise reduced the Big Five to the Big Four, but since then, despite countless scandals, the remaining Big Four have been considered too big to fail.

Wirecard started in 1999, and came to dominate cashless payments processing in Europe. Essentially the company is a middle man in the electronic payments system, processing money-flows between paying and receiving banks and taking its cut. Two years ago Wirecard became a member of Germany’s prestigious DAX 30 Index, valued at US$28 billion, but questions were already being asked about its accounting; now it’s the first DAX 30 company to go bust, losing 98 per cent of its value in just days.

Wirecard collapsed seven days after EY refused to sign off on its accounts over US$2.1 billion in missing cash. According to the 25 June Financial Post, a source reported the company had faked two-thirds of its sales. While EY eventually forced the issue, for three years it had signed off on Wirecard’s books without confirming the company’s claim that the missing billions were in bank accounts in the Philippines. Instead of confirming the existence of the cash with the banks directly, EY accepted screenshots and other documents. Fraud is possibly not the only crime EY facilitated: according to the 1 July London Times, “Senior Wirecard employees were linked to an opaque network of British companies associated with alleged money laundering.”

(This involvement of a cashless economy leader with fraud and money laundering destroys one of the central arguments of the Australian Treasury’s Black Economy Taskforce that recommended a ban on cash transactions above $10,000 to ostensibly combat crimes like money laundering and fraud. The truth is criminals will find a way to commit crime in any medium, and all cash bans will do is trap people in banks so they cannot escape bad policies like bail-in.)

Wirecard collapsed owing US$4 billion to creditors who are unlikely to see any of their money—US$3.25 billion to 15 banks and US$750 million in corporate bonds. The scandal has led to calls in Germany to break up the big auditors between their auditing and consulting businesses, which combined have led to massive conflicts of interests. Auditing firms are supposed to blow the whistle on bad practices in a company, but as they are often paid more by the same company in consulting fees, there are now many cases of audits ignoring bank scandals. In the UK in 2018, the Labour Party commissioned a report by accounting professor Prem Sikka, “Reforming the auditing industry”, which recommended breaking up the auditing firms and establishing a government auditor for the banks. These recommendations are included in the bill Bob Katter introduced in Australia’s Parliament.

Bail-in

The biggest immediate concern raised by the repeated scandals of the Big Four auditing firms is the true health of the world’s banks, 98 per cent of which are audited by the Big Four. In Australia EY has already been exposed for its corrupt collusion with NAB to hide that the bank was knowingly selling bad products to customers. Their audits simply cannot be trusted, not only due to their conflict of interests, but because they do not properly examine the assumptions underlying the banks’ trading in high-risk derivatives, which have the potential to spark unexpected bank failures that could force the regulator to order bail-ins of deposits in an attempt to sacrifice bank customers to save the system. Australian politicians assure concerned constituents that Australia’s banks are “unquestionably strong” and bank failures are highly unlikely, but they are relying on the word of the auditors, which is worthless. Even the regulator APRA outsources much of its detailed examination of the banks to the Big Four auditors, making it as blind as the politicians and public.

Instead of relying on the empty assurance of blind politicians and regulators, Australians must demand Parliament pass the Citizens Party’s suite of legislation to overhaul the financial system, beginning with the bail-in amendment bill to protect deposits from confiscation in a banking crisis, and the government audit bill to conduct a thorough examination of the banks’ books, especially their combined $53.2 trillion in derivatives.

My investigation of COVID-19 - Jon Rappoport
 
 
 
 

This is one of those investigations in which you ask yourself, IS THE PHENOMENON, AS DESCRIBED, REAL? That’s where I started. At this point, I’ve written well over 150 articles about COVID-19.

And of course, the phenomenon is not real.

Most people wouldn’t be able to grasp that. They’re stuck at the gate, saying, PEOPLE ARE DYING, IT MUST BE THE VIRUS.

Well, people are always dying. It’s very easy to repackage their deaths under a new label. And those that are dying for new reasons…you can track down those reasons, too. In a few places, it’s pollution, in another place it could well be a previous vaccine campaign, and so on. In New York, a lot of people are dying premature deaths because they’re put on breathing ventilators and heavily sedated.

As I laid out in several key articles, proper procedures of viral discovery were never carried out in China or anywhere else. There is no convincing proof researchers ever found a new virus.

Therefore, every piece of so-called information coming from “new virus” has no foundation whatsoever. For example, the diagnostic tests. Tests for what? And then, the case numbers would be meaningless as well.

But again, these facts are hard for people to swallow. They want to believe. They believe they must believe. It’s a theocracy.

In the set-up, there are two positions you can take. You can stand outside the whole illusion and expose it; or you can enter the illusion and then show internal contradictions and lies and false pictures, within the fraud.

For instance, the case numbers. I’ve explained ways the CDC and other agencies are fiddling them, inflating them. I’ve also stood outside the whole case number game and pointed out it’s without meaning, because, again, the existence of a new virus hasn’t been proven. The tests, all of them, are supposed to be evidence of the presence of the virus.

You can be OUTSIDE or INSIDE. Or both.

Let’s say someone publishes a photo of 510th Street in New York during rush hour. You can simply say there is no 510th Street in New York. Or you can look at the details of the photo. You can say, “You see that man wearing a fleecy winter coat and a long scarf? Now look behind him. There are three girls wearing bikinis waiting for a bus. Doesn’t that seem odd?”

You can also make a circumstantial case. That’s a third aspect of an investigation. “Look, this man accused of check forgery has been convicted three times in other states for the same crime. He worked for his uncle, who went to prison for forgery in France. Right now, he lives above a store where a check forger is turning out fake checks.”

I’ve done that with the virus—showing that, back through history, the so-called discovery of a new virus, and its promotion, have been used to obscure, and stand in for, other forms of killing. Industrial pollution, forced starvation, purposeful contamination of water supplies, treatment with highly toxic medical drugs and vaccines. The story about a virus protects the killers.

As you can see, I’m explaining all this in a very straightforward way. Now. But in 1987, when the issue was AIDS and HIV, and I was writing a book on the subject, I waded through a mass of confusion for months. The confusion was caused by me being inside the picture and not knowing there was an outside. When I finally realized what was going on, a large number of seemingly disparate pieces of information clicked into place. I saw the landscape. I saw what was in it, and I could stand away from it and look at it as a whole.

As a fourth consideration, you could examine the history of the teachings that train and predispose people to believe in a phenomenon that is not real. In this case, teachings about germs. Teachings that indicate germs are as dangerous as nitroglycerin. Teachings that claim disease comes directly from germs—ignoring, for example, the fact that people have intrinsic immune defenses. Mind control through germ theory is a long story that I’m just briefly mentioning. But it’s very useful to see how indoctrination works in the background; when the next big epidemic is announced, most people immediately fall in line. They’re confirming what they’ve been taught to believe. It’s another church.

There was the church of HIV, the church of West Nile, the church of SARS, Swine Flu, Zika, Bird Flu, and so on.

Speaking of teachings—one of the most important predispositions that people cling to like life rafts is: one effect, one cause. The effect would be COVID-19, and the cause would be the coronavirus. But the effect is not One Thing. As I stated above, people are actually dying as a result of different conditions…which have different causes. Grasping this produces a very beneficial explosion that scatters much mind control.

Another predisposition is the illogical notion that the effect proves the cause. “Well, look at the all the lockdowns (effect); therefore, the cause, the justification must be the dangerous virus.” Nonsense. Aristotle exposed that fallacy a long time ago.

“But…but I don’t care. People are dying, it must be the virus. I believe.”

Yes, people believe. When has that not been the case?

And when they believe, they ask a few typical questions. “But what about the people dying in Italy?” They are the BUT WHAT ABOUT people. They always have another WHAT ABOUT. Or they’ll say, “There was a boy who suddenly died in Montana, how do you explain that?” The HOW DO YOU EXPLAIN people.

I explain what I can, based on evidence I’ve put together. I don’t know what happened to the boy in Montana or the girl in India or the mother in Mongolia. But I do know there is no particular reason to assume the virus was the cause of death.

True believers tend to put things together this way: the news reports an unusual death; it’s impossible to understand what happened from the account; unusual effect must equal an unusual cause; the COVID virus would be unusual; therefore, the virus caused the unusual death. Preposterous, but there it is. You can take a sledgehammer to that pillar of dull thought, and you won’t knock it down in a hundred years.

Then we come to the question of conspiracy. This can also be called: who benefits? People mistakenly assume that a conspiracy is like a bank robbery. A small number of people walk into a bank and take the money. They benefit. But in a conspiracy, there are compartmentalized beneficiaries, and they aren’t all plotting together. Most beneficiaries see an opportunity and they take it.

Drug companies make money on the vaccine and the drugs used to treat COVID-19 patients. State governments receive federal money to “fight the virus.” Researchers win promotions. Public health agencies obtain more funding, and more power. Financiers buy up devalued properties at bargain prices. At the top of the ladder, key plotters contrive selling the story of a new killer virus, because they intend to use it to lock down the planet. Why? Because they want to torpedo economies and move in on the wreckage and build a new economic, social, and political world order. It doesn’t take thousands or millions of people—all in the know—to foist a conspiracy. Far from it.

An investigation of a story makes the story fall apart. You see it in a different light. You no longer believe the central narrative. You keep asking deeper questions about basic assertions contained in the story, and your answers produce more collapses of the cement that holds the story together.

Finally, for now, there is the matter of individual choice and responsibility. Individuals can believe or not believe. There is always that option. People are not doomed to accept an oppressive narrative imposed on them. If that were the case, there would be no point to human thought or action. We would forever be victims. This is not the case. It never was. Some people are dedicated to the notion that there is no way out of the dungeon of external control. Their dedication to this proposition has great tonnage. For them. They purposely ignore the fact that, down through history, there has been an enormous struggle to establish individual freedom, and this war has been astonishingly successful—relative to older despotisms and tyrannies. In fact, their choice, now, to walk around spraying doom of whatever brand they want to sell is evidence of that freedom. I’m not impressed by doom. I’m impressed by freedom. We are in yet another fight for it now. I’m impressed by individuals who use their freedom to make their best vision into fact in the world. My investigations are aimed at exposing the power players who plot and fight against freedom.

Until next time,
dream big dreams,
plan out how to achieve them,
be continually executing your plans,
enlist people to your causes,
travel and/or read widely, preferably both,
all the while observing what you observe
rather than thinking what you are told to think,
think well of your fellow man,
take time to help your fellow man,
he sorely needs it and it will help you too,
eat food that is good for your body,
exercise your body,
take time to destress,
and do the important things
that make a difference -
they are rarely the urgent ones!
