The Rich Get Richer While the "Little Guy" Gets the Bill

It is amazing to watch the controlled destruction of the American economy while most citizens just go about with their amusements. Although Detroit is obviously the most devastated large city in America, the news is now out that many of the other metropolitan areas of the country are now suffering the same fate. My contention has always been that Detroit was just hit by the first part of this destructive wave, but I knew that it was going to hit the rest of the country. It is just not possible for the heart of the manufacturing base to be destroyed and to maintain a healthy country. But this is what people were led to believe by the mainstream media. Such is the quality of thinking and reasoning of the masses.

And believe me, the mentioned cities in the report from Forbes at the link above are not the only cities being hit by this economic depression. We know that California is experiencing the biggest fiscal deficit of all the states, so it isn't a surprise that Los Angeles is having major problems as well.

The biggest surprise to me is the non stop march of money to the Military-Industrial Complex (as Eisenhower referred to it in his outgoing speech). This country spends TRILLIONS of dollars on guns, weapons and the 'War on Terrorism' like there is no other priority. Of course, this is to protect us from these legions of terrorists who are just lurking around, waiting to kill all of us.

So let me get this right: we spend more on weapons and defense than all other countries in the world COMBINED, but we can't stop terrorist attacks without spending even MORE money? And in spite of all these expenditures, we still had a terrorist attack (WTC-Pentagon). So now we are fighting 2 wars on the other side of the world to protect America? I wonder how we are protecting America by having the Army on the other side of the planet.

Ok, even if we leave that incredibly large expenditure out of the equation, we still have the banks and other financial interests who are getting large handouts from the government while paying ZERO taxes. So these guys have GREATLY profited from the NINJA loans and other financial shenanigans (like derivatives, high frequency trading, fraudulent financial reporting , etc.), and when they get busted for all of their misdeeds and assorted scurrilous behaviors , they get free government money with no strings attached! No jail time, but 'get-out-of-bankruptcy-free' passes and the biggest bonuses & profits in their history! I'm beginning to think that I went into the wrong occupation...

The bottom line is that we are paying for America to be destroyed, and we're paying top dollar for it, all while our real economy is being decimated. So the rich get richer, and the middle class gets the privilege of being reduced to peon status while receiving the bill for all of it. What a bargain.

We couldn't have destroyed America any better if we would have given the Communists, and any other enemy of the country free access to all of the control mechanisms of the country. If this wasn't the planned destruction of America, it is definitely the best imitation of a plan to destroy America. Unfortunately, by the time people wake up and see what has happened, it will be too late. If it isn't too late already, it is very close to that point.

The worst part of it is that most Americans are busy blaming other average citizens for their own demise while fighting over the crumbs that are left of the shrinking American Pie, the people who are actually doing this (i.e., high level government officials, corporations, lawmakers, lobbyists, globalists, etc.) are sauntering away with all of the money and power.

So what are we going to do about this?

Are You an "Unlawful Enemy Combatant"?

Once again, those people we call 'the government' are at it again. It seems that we are destined to create (or allow to be created) the most sinister, evil, repressive, technologically-advanced totalitarian state ever known on this planet. They have passed an act called the Military Commissions Act of 2006, but it appears to be a thinly veiled push for more totalitarian/police state powers to be wielded by alleged government against anyone who dares to question anything that these public officials do.

As we know, these alleged public officials feel that they are above the law, above reproach, and above the scrutiny of anyone, especially anyone who doesn't believe the official story on any topic. These topics would include (but are not limited to): the WTC-911 attacks, the War on Terror/Iraq/Afghanistan, graft and corruption at the highest levels in government and business, the PATRIOT Act, Homeland Security, legalized torture, the decimation of the Constitution, etc. Don't worry about your 'rights', since the only rights you are deemed to have are the ones that GW Bush and the Government decides that you have! Don't worry, as if you're innocent, you won't have anything to worry about. Just shut up and believe whatever they tell you, since they are the people with the power, and are obviously qualified to know who's naughty and who's nice. Constitutions, oaths of office, freedom of speech, and other antiquated concepts be damned into oblivion. Don't worry, as GW has your back...

Of course, me, along with a lot of other people who feel a need for critical thinking and truth, will probably be the target of the latest legislation. Now, bloggers like me are being equated with terrorists. I guess that they may have a point because freethinkers with ideas that aren't 'mainstream' often lead people to understand what is really happening in the world, and in the country. They've always said that the pen is mightier than the sword. Boy, I didn't know that my words could be that powerful, as to convert my typing into weapons more powerful than hijacked jets, thermonuclear warheads, depleted uranium, cluster bombs, death rays, and whatever other barbarous 'weapons of mass destruction' that you might be able to imagine! I really feel powerful now!

Of course, the idea that me and people like me are terrorists is not even worthy of intellectual consideration. I love freedom and independence. It just seems that we're running mighty low on both of these in this alleged 'modern era'. It appears to me that the fascism and totalitarianism remain the same, but the tactics and implementation just get updated and perpetrated with new methods. Bush, Caesar, Napoleon, Stalin, Lenin, Pol Pot, Saddam Hussein, Robespierre, Machiavelli, "insert your favorite dictator/mass murder here" all seem to have the same goal--unbridled control and power. "Vilify the people who disagree with you" seems to be the strategy here. It also seems to be true that when they do this, the majority of people will just 'go along to get along'. But one day, the totalitarian state will come to your front door. What will you do then? You will either fight now to stop this madness, or you will be enslaved along with the rest of the people. Don't worry about me because it's looking like people like me won't be around to continue to spit out information and observations that aren't in step with government-approved propaganda and lies. They even have academia (who should know better) to back them up and join in with the witch hunt. So don't wonder how the German people allowed tyranny, totalitarianism, fascism, etc., to thrive as they watched it happen before their eyes because all you have to do is watch what happens here in Amerikkka, comrade. I guess that everyone will get their just desserts...

911 Revisited

That infamous day (also my birthday) was yesterday. It's also the anniversary of the 911/WTC/Pentagon attacks. From my perspective, it would appear that there is one 'conspiracy theory' that is well-distributed. And that 'conspiracy theory' would be the Official Account of what happened as portrayed by the US Government! There are numerous inconsistencies, impossibilities, improbabilities and fairy tales that are being used to 'support' this rendition of the events on that tragic day. The importance of this event is considerable because it is the justification for all of the unconstitutional actions and other things being done to damage the American people, and the people of the world.

The alleged 'War on Terror' is a direct result of this. How a war can be won against 'terror' is an exercise in futility. How can 'Terror' be defeated, considering that it is an abstract (non-tangible, not sentient) item??? The Department of Homeland Security (i.e., the new American Gestapo) is based on this event as well. The PATRIOT Act (obviously written in advance of the 911 attacks), which is an attempt to erode the Constitutional prohibitions and limits on government power, is also a direct result from 911. I can't understand how a government that was given its franchise and legitimacy BY the Constitution can now nullify it. In short, the Constitution is what ALL government officials (on all levels--State, County, Local, and Federal) must swear to uphold and defend (cf. Art. 6, Sections 2-3) before they can officially act as government officials. It is their oath and contract to protect us and the country. The 'Wars' in Iraq and Afghanistan (not technically wars because there was no Declaration of War given, as constitutionally mandated, by Congress) are a direct result of 911 as well. I don't even have to mention the incessant barrage of threats, reports, and claims by government officials of 'the terrorists' lurking behind every bush, tree, dark alley, just waiting to get us. Mind you, no terrorist has been found or convicted of doing anything.

On that note, I have found a few articles that provide critical information in reference to 911. Information that you won't find on CNN or Fox News. What they call 'news' could more properly be called 'propaganda', considering the extremely slanted and biased information that they provide. A great article that investigates the evidence and the stories being disseminated in the press is at this link. A simple, logical, level-headed approach to all the information out there seems to indicate to me that there is NO WAY that OBL or Saddam Hussein had anything to do with the 911 attacks.

One extremely glaring item shows me that 911 had to be an inside job. If it was such a failing of the US Defense grid, WHY WASN'T ANYBODY REPRIMANDED, FIRED, CONVICTED OR PUNISHED FOR IT?????? Think about your job for a minute. I know that if I make a stupid mistake that merely causes a violation to occur, people get punished and/or reprimanded. If it's serious enough (mind you, doesn't even cause anybody to die), YOU GET FIRED! Now you mean to tell me that the people responsible for protecting the ENTIRE country TOTALLY FAIL in their duty, and NOBODY gets ANYTHING???? The inference is that they were all in on it and were following orders! Is there any other plausible explanation? Please contact me if you can find one anywhere in the realm of sanity. To this day, nobody has ever been punished for this. In fact, I think that people have actually been promoted after this incident.

I'm not sure what's going on with the 'Powers-that-be' but now the mainstream media is reporting on more 'conspiracy theory' material. Are they done with GW Bush and his nonsense? It would appear that they have to be in 'saving face' mode because even mainstream people are beginning to severely question the official explanation of the 911 event. It doesn't take a Ph.D. in Astrophysics to figure out that kerosene can't melt fortified steel. You may also want to check out this article that describes the present situation 5 years after the 911 event. It's good information to know. I don't agree with everything in the article, but still wanted to share it with you. Just go wherever the facts, truth and your deductive and inductive reasoning take you...
