I found a great article that describes the usual steps that dictators and similar characters take when they are developing a fascist state. I do agree with most of the author's points in this article, but there is a pet peeve of mine that I have noticed that a LOT of authors seem to be oblivious. The author of this particular article makes a reference to 'democracy' as being a desirable goal of society. I beg to differ on this point. First, there is no reference to the United States as being a 'democracy' in the Constitution. It is referred to as a 'republic'. The difference is that in a democracy, the majority rules and can compel or force the minority to go along with whatever be their dictates. In a republic, there are certain principles that cannot be abridged or destroyed, regardless of how the majority feels about the issue. From my recollection, I have seen descriptions of the definition of democracy in a US military training manual that says that democracy is mob rule that has always historically led directly to fascist dictatorship in all countries that have implemented it. Unfortunately, it seems to be leading the US into that very same situation.
I also found a good, short article that deals with an issue in Iraq. It would appear that the 'authorities' are only reporting one in ten US soldier deaths over there. This is because the 'powers-that-be' want to have a military presence over there, and that means that they can't let the people over here get too angry about it. This means that they can't report the true number of casualties because if the truth got out, there would be even greater opposition to the Iraq 'war' than there is already. Unfortunately, most people get the bulk of their information about Iraq from major mass media sources, so their perception of the situation is 100% manipulated by the owners of the mass media. Americans who believe the propaganda with which they are fed by their corporate masters are very naive, indeed.
I couldn't pass up an article that deals with the US housing bubble. It's not looking good for real estate these days. The fraud and bubble creation in the real estate market is nearing a climax, and the financial armageddon from this is about to manifest. Once again, do not expect to hear anything approaching the truth from your mass media news/'infotainment' sources because the plan is for the general population to party hardy for the entire trip to the gutter. Why spoil a party with bad news? They'll continue to tell you not to worry, and that the US economy is the strongest economy in the world, real estate is the best investment you can make, etc. But the statistics speak for themselves. Anybody in the 'real' world knows that times are tough and don't appear to be improving anytime soon.
I had found another very interesting article that deals with the fall of Russia. It is kind of long, but goes over a lot of good information about how corruption and complicity with Western interests profiteered from the demise of Russia. The author also ties a lot of this information in with the present dire state of affairs in America. It is a well-written article, and is very informative. The article deals with a lot of international and national intrigue and the workings behind the scenes that we are not made aware of by the mass media sources. Very good information.
Keep on with your search for information. The truth is out there!

Rigged Elections Revisited
I've found another article that expounds on the proven fact that (at the bare minimum) the last 2 presidential elections were rigged. Of course, you realize that this information has been hidden and/or not covered in any major American media outlets. It is the duty of all people to learn about this state of affairs in this country because the integrity, and even the very survival of the United States could depend on this knowledge being widely disseminated.
Most people don't want to confront issues like this because they go straight to the very core of people's belief systems. The ramifications of the truth of rigged elections would pull away the facade of democracy, republic, freedom, fairness, honesty, fair play, "government of the people, for the people, and by the people". Most people cling to the ideas of freedom and honesty, even in the face of powerful evidence that shows that American government is 100% corrupt, especially at the national level.
This type of information makes the average person feel as if they have lived their entire life based on a lie. Even though it is probably true that the average person has lived their life based on lies, propaganda and gross misconceptions, they are more comfortable with the lies because they are familiar, and do not require any new or different action(s) to be taken, or new risks to be taken. The most unfortunate part of this specious logic is that society will have to face the results of this corruption.
It appears to be the 'easy way out' by going along with the lies and propaganda, but we still suffer from the effects of the corruption. Witness the continuing destruction of America on all levels. The country continues to plunge to new depths of depravity, poverty, erosion, predatory practices in business, parasitism, oppression of all forms, etc. Just 30 years ago, America was a leader in all facets of business and manufacturing. This is no longer the case, with the total hollowing-out of the substance of the US economy. We don't produce anything (besides debt) these days. Do you really think this is happening by chance??? Please don't be that naive.
The 'powers-that-be' are banking on you remaining naive, innocent and gullible as newborn babies. A lie or oligopoly based on fraud cannot stand the light of day. This is the reason that they try their best to dissuade people from doing any type of critical analysis of present-day events. Notice that their answers to pointed questions never address, muchless refute, the questions. They use every fallacious attack on sound questioning that they can muster to keep the people distracted and ensconed in the comfort of the familiar. But meanwhile, the country continues to crumble and slide down into the abyss.
Do yourself and your posterity a favor. Always ask questions, demand on-point, credible answers, and question alleged authority.

Democracy?
This article speaks on the differences between a democracy and a republic. It is a critical difference, as stark as the difference between night and day! We've been conditioned to think of the United States as a democracy, but it was actually founded as a democratic republic. In short, democracy is not the panacea for societal ills or the highest form of government. It actually leads to fascism, totalitarianism, and the decay of any society that embraces it. Are we not seeing these effects today? Be honest with yourself and witness the decline in America, and you will have no doubt that it all stems from the change from a republic to a democracy. THINK!
