Chapter 9: <strong>The</strong> Thought Experiment<br />
With this we have the instruments for a comparison <strong>of</strong> the happenings in “theoretical physics” with the current,<br />
socially relevant processes in our country. We will now compare the relativity catastrophe with several current<br />
scandals:<br />
2012<br />
(1) with the fraudulent loans <strong>of</strong> the pr<strong>of</strong>essional bankers;<br />
(2) with the Telekom bugging affair;<br />
(3)with the corruption affairs at Siemens; and<br />
(4) with the behaviour <strong>of</strong> the government in the final nuclear-waste disposal site “Asse”.<br />
We will, as usual, identify the points <strong>of</strong> agreement and the differences and we will make a decision as to the<br />
cheaters’ league in which the physicists are playing. And in view <strong>of</strong> a period <strong>of</strong> 85 years <strong>of</strong> successful suppression<br />
and denial <strong>of</strong> the criticism, they can be expected to belong to the best <strong>of</strong> their discipline.<br />
All <strong>of</strong> the following circumstances was reported at great length in our press, so that the circumstances can be<br />
considered as being generally well-known and as representing no news any more. <strong>The</strong> presentation <strong>of</strong> the scandal<br />
makes do essentially with the state <strong>of</strong> things in September 2008. <strong>The</strong> further developments have produced other<br />
wonderful new blossoms, which, however, do not contribute anything to the problems.<br />
<strong>1.</strong> Comparison <strong>of</strong> the Relativity Catastrophe<br />
with the Banker Scandal <strong>of</strong> Fraudulent Loans<br />
<strong>The</strong> core <strong>of</strong> the scandal: insecure mortgages were given the highest security rating, AAA, by the rating agencies<br />
so that all <strong>of</strong> the banks and capital collecting points could deal in them and sell them without any fears.<br />
<strong>The</strong> fraud element is finely thread and is generally so unimaginable that even a number <strong>of</strong> pr<strong>of</strong>essional bankers<br />
are unable to see the fraud or the risk factors in their books - pr<strong>of</strong>essionals!<br />
<strong>The</strong> more intelligent bankers do see through the fraud with the loans and organize, as a precautionary measure,<br />
a further fraud: they hive <strong>of</strong>f these loans in special companies, that not longer appear in the balance sheets <strong>of</strong> the<br />
banks as owners. This sifting <strong>of</strong> banking business out <strong>of</strong> the balance sheet is the second fraud as a subsequent<br />
precaution against the first tone. One will see how well it functions.<br />
<strong>The</strong> first case <strong>of</strong> fraud is exposed. <strong>The</strong> transacted loans lose their highest rating, AAA, and are immediately<br />
worth much less.<br />
Once the first swindle has been exposed, the “special companies” collapse and must now unfortunately be<br />
included in the books <strong>of</strong> the owning banks after all. <strong>The</strong> second swindle then becomes known and has protected<br />
against nothing.<br />
As an additional feature at a lower level, in the USA at the end <strong>of</strong> 2008 the Mad<strong>of</strong>f snowball system is exposed.<br />
And a sum <strong>of</strong> 50 billion is missing. <strong>The</strong> fraud is investigated by the House <strong>of</strong> Representatives. <strong>The</strong> fund manager<br />
Markopolos had drawn the attention <strong>of</strong> the SEC (the supervisory body!) to serious inconsistencies at Mad<strong>of</strong>f for 9<br />
years and now speaks out: “I gave them the biggest snowball system <strong>of</strong> all time, gift-wrapped, but somehow they<br />
just didn’t take the trouble to investigate it properly or thoroughly.” (FAZ, 6.2.09)<br />
<strong>The</strong> Comparison.<br />
(1) <strong>The</strong> most interesting parallel to the relativity catastrophe is the double swindle. First the physicists threw<br />
their critical minority out <strong>of</strong> the scientific sphere and then they spread the lie that there was no criticism <strong>of</strong> the<br />
theories <strong>of</strong> relativity anymore. <strong>The</strong> public, <strong>of</strong> course, was not to be permitted to learn anything about the throw-out<br />
<strong>of</strong> the critical minority, which is why the first swindle was concealed from the public and a second swindle was<br />
organized to secure the first.<br />
All future cheaters can learn something from this, namely that one swindle is <strong>of</strong>ten not enough.<br />
<strong>The</strong> second swindle did not function for the bankers, because money transactions always have to be settled,<br />
sooner or later. <strong>The</strong> relativists’ second swindle has functions right up to the present day. <strong>The</strong> relativists are quite<br />
simply the better cheaters.<br />
(2) A further parallel can be seen in the inconceivability <strong>of</strong> the methods employed. Just as no one could imagine<br />
that the bankers, with their foul loans, would shoot themselves in the foot (and then others), in the same way almost<br />
no one today can imagine that an entire branch which presents itself as a rational, “academic science”, could throw<br />
its critical minority unceremoniously out <strong>of</strong> this “science”.<br />
