Financial Terrorism and tracking the End Game

What is happening in our world today?  Why is it happening the way it is?  Well, once you get an idea of what the "end game" is then everything becomes crystal clear.  Even though the world is an incredibly complex place, the end game is surprisingly simple.

The powerful want ultimate power.

Power over someone can also be termed as control over someone.  So if they want total control over people, couldn't that be termed as slavery?  Slavery is the true goal as the slave owner then has total control over their slaves.

Put yourself in their shoes for a moment.  If you had a goal of making everyone your slave, how would you go about doing that?  You can't tell the slaves that they're slaves because then you would have a mutiny on your hands.  Therefore, the move to slavery must be done covertly.

Time to put your old shoes back on.  What is the most controlling thing in our lives?  It's money.  Money decides what you can and cannot do.  Those seeking to make you a slave know this.  They realize that if they control a persons money then they control that person's life, making them a slave.  Money doesn't just control an individuals life either.  It gets used to control entire countries.

Here is a perfect example of how money controls countries.  Many thanks to John Perkins for shedding the light on "Economic Hitmen" and showing how powerful countries really exert their power on the rest of the world.

This is how money controls the world.  If you can wield the most powerful weapon on earth, money, then you can control anything, even entire countries.  This is known as Financial Terrorism.

This process of financial terrorism is deployed in many ways.  One of the most common is a process David Icke has termed "Problem, Reaction, Solution".  Using this video as an example, the multinational companies want to take over that country and exploit its natural resources.  So what they do is they create the problem by paying off the leaders of that country to take loans that could never be repaid.  Then when it comes time to pay the bills the leaders notice the problem and react by going back to those same people whom made the loans begging for a solution to their debt problem.  Knowing this problem was coming because they intentionally created it, their solution is to take the country's natural resources for pennies on the dollar.

Look at what happened in this loop.  None of the companies that went in to make the loans had to give up anything.  The populace of the country ends up being the people that have to pay for the corruption in the first place.

Now that you know how financial terrorism works, look at all the economic headlines since 2007-2008.  Do you see how these same processes are being used against us to destroy the middle class?

The people running the big banks created a problem with their greed.  They made tons of bad loans knowing full well that they would get their bonuses and those bad loans they made wouldn't fail until after they had been paid and left the corporation.  Hoping that they could use the country's dependence on their banks they made the full court press on the government to bail them out because they are "Too Big to Fail".

What this has done is to move the liabilities of the bad loans they know they made onto the back of the government (aka The People).  This has created the same problem that we saw in the video.  We are now in the reaction phase of the process with everyone talking about a United States debt problem.  This will continue until it gets so bad that the people will beg for a solution.  Their solution is to then force the people to sell their assets to those same companies that put us in debt in the first place.  In Chicago they sold their city parking to private corporations.

Once they buy up everything the public owns we will then be completely dependent on them, making us their slaves.

So let's retrace what has happened.  A bunch of big banks went broke making bad loans.  They pushed these debts on the people.  Now those same banks are buying up everything the people own because the people are now broke.  Is this not financial terrorism?

But wait, aren't we hunting terrorists all over the world?

Not the real ones.

Remember that Mortgage Problem?

This is how you fight the system.  Fast forward to 4:45 and you'll get your answer.

Remember how I told you that they bundled are the mortgages into "Mortgage Backed Securities"?  Like you read earlier, they can't prove they own your home!  Don't let them take it from you, they have no legal standing to do so.  Thanks to Mr. Moore and Mr. Olberman.

Lets go a little deeper.  Make sure you check out Max Keiser's show.  If you don't get RT on your television then make sure you watch the Russia Today YouTube channel for the newest episode.  Russia Today also has some great reporting and is one of the best media outfits on television.  New episodes of the Keiser Report are posted on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays.

Occupy The Planet

First how about an opening message from our good friend Keith Olberman.  I love it when people with a voice grow enough balls to tell the truth.

How about a message from famous musician Immortal Technique.  He gave this speech to the protesters at the Occupy Wall Street protest at 2am.

Now for the next step.  The Anonymous Press can take it from here.

9/11 Ten Years Later

I have yet to weigh in on 9/11.  Since the tenth anniversary just passed I feel obligated.  There are a lot of journalists with tons of investigation and facts so I'll let them speak for themselves.  Please visit their sites and support them.  Lets begin with one of my favorite independent journalists, James Corbett.  This video has the tagline 'Everything you ever wanted to know about the 9/11 conspiracy theory in under 5 minutes.'

If you want a more detailed analysis lets consult his anniversary special interview.  He interviews former Assistant Secretary to the Treasury Paul Craig Roberts for his take on the story and events of September 11th, 2001.

Another must watch video is an interview done of Cheney where he states point blank that there has never been evidence linking Bin Laden to the 9/11 attacks.

What about this video from a CIA liason to Iraq and Libya during the events, Susan Lindauer.  Here she explains the experiences she had and what she believes happened.

To me, this woman at the end makes the most sense when it comes to the US Intelligence perspective.  However, it's not the whole story as she says in the video.  As people bring up their questions at the end, there are plenty of things that aren't accounted for, like the fact that some of the alleged hijackers are still alive. 

Another person that gets largely ignored from the 9/11 debate is Dr. Judy Wood.  It seems to be because she's looking at all of the forensic evidence and what it's spelling out.  I'll let her book speak for itself.  If you would like to borrow my copy, just let me know.  Better yet, support her work and buy your own copy.

Here is a video by Andrew Johnson from checktheevidence.com.  He collaborates with Dr. Wood on the evidence and will give you some overview.

There are many perspectives on the events of 9/11.  My hope is that everyone can take an honest look at the evidence and make their own decisions.

Welcome to Germany in the late 30's

This is an old video but one that strikes a chord.  It's over a million views for a reason.

Cognitive Dissonance

Cognitive dissonance is an uncomfortable feeling caused by holding conflicting ideas simultaneously. The theory of cognitive dissonance proposes that people have a motivational drive to reduce dissonance. They do this by changing their attitudes, beliefs, and actions.^[2] Dissonance is also reduced by justifying, blaming, and denying. Wikipedia 

I'll be the first to admit to being a victim of this paradigm.  When you are a child, you are shown how the "world works".  Like most people, I bought it hook, line and sinker.  I even defended known falsehoods just because I had been told them and believed them.  Most of the time it's in the form of ignorance and denial.

For everyone in my country, cognitive dissonance is an every day battle.  How many people do you know that have given the world an honest look?  Most people can't because it's in such bad shape that it brings up a whole slew of bad emotions.  In order to avoid these emotions, cognitive dissonance has taken hold.
One example of this happened a month or so ago with a friend.  The debt discussion came into the conversation and he had a graphic with our national debt and whom it is owed to.  1.2 Trillion of this debt is owed to the Federal Reserve and he was saying that if it's owed to a government entity, then we could simply write it off.  I then told him that the Fed is an independent corporation and not an arm of the government.  This took him completely by surprise so he wanted to look into this.  I sent him a few pieces of evidence in favor of this fact.

After a couple days he email's me back saying that the fed is a federal agency but is completely independent of other federal agencies.  He follows this statement up with how our government selects the people to run the board of governors and that the Fed's profits belong to the government.

He then sends me three quotes from an article he found about the Federal Reserve's ownership that are supposed to back up his claim that it's a government agency.

* "The twelve regional Federal Reserve Banks, which were established by Congress as the operating arms of the nation’s central banking system, are organized much like private corporations – possibly leading to some confusion about "ownership." For example, the Reserve Banks issue shares of stock to member banks. However, owning Reserve Bank stock is quite different from owning stock in a private company. The Reserve Banks are not operated for profit, and ownership of a certain amount of stock is, by law, a condition of membership in the System. The stock may not be sold, traded, or pledged as security for a loan; dividends are, by law, 6 percent per year."

* "[The Federal Reserve] is considered an independent central bank because its decisions do not have to be ratified by the President or anyone else in the executive or legislative branch of government, it does not receive funding appropriated by Congress, and the terms of the members of the Board of Governors span multiple presidential and congressional terms."
* "The Federal Reserve’s income is derived primarily from the interest on U.S. government securities that it has acquired through open market operations. . . . After paying its expenses, the Federal Reserve turns the rest of its earnings over to the U.S. Treasury."

He then gives me the link that these quotes came from:

http://www.globalresearch.ca/index.php?context=va&aid=10489


I won't dispute a single statement there.  But there are glaring problems with the narrow nature of the statements and quotes.  For in this case, the relationship is like a public-private partnership, much akin to Xcel Energy here in Colorado.  However, if it wasn't independent, then how can we owe it money?  Also, who are the ultimate owners of the shares?

Go to that link, do you notice anything strange about the title of that article?  This is effects of cognitive dissonance.  The article title itself says that the fed is independent and owned by it's member banks. (Remember how the fed is supposed to also regulate them?) Yet he's using quotes from this article to argue against my case

This is how blinding the current social paradigm can be.  We are fighting on the same team and yet due to Cognitive dissonance, it seems like we are fighting against each other.  The only issue between us is how good a totally independent agency/corporation controlling all of our money is. (Remember the dollar is the world's reserve currency, so when I say our, I mean worldwide.)

Maybe he would change his mind if he read this.

For me it has taken three years to be able to come to grips with such notions.  My parents thought I was depressed.  For what it's worth, it is somewhat depressing to figure out all the problems with this world.  Especially the problems that are by design.  Well, I can't ignore the problems anymore.  But you know what? There are a lot of people with great ideas out there.  (Here is one.) We'll have to change our entire lives and it will be difficult for a while, but our children and grandchildren will thank us for it.

Fortunately, as I see it, we're going to be forced into changing our lives at some point in the near future.  Yes it's probably not going to be pretty for most.  However, wouldn't you rather atone for your transgressions rather than throw it on your children and grandchildren, doubling it?  The key to coming out of this is for society to identify it's problems so that we can come up with something people like to call a 'win-win' for everyone. (Yes, it's possible.)

One first step is learning to cope with this effect known as Cognitive Dissonance. 

Humanitarian Mission?!

Here are more videos showing what NATO is doing in Libya.  All of our leaders have said we're there for humanitarian purposes, but that argument doesn't stand up to even the smallest of debates.  If we're there for humanitarian purposes, then why is NATO repeatedly hitting civilian targets?

You heard that right, NATO is fighting alongside Al-Qaeda.  Obviously when it comes to those in power, they don't care about morailty.  They're going to use anyone they can to acheive their ends.

Defenseless to Corruption

Did you know that Gould Arkansas City Counsel to make illegal any meeting discussing the city?

Or, how about the fact that it's technically illegal (although unconstitutional) to record public servants without their consent in a dozen states?

How are the people supposed to defend themselves against corrupt public servants?  I know that anyone in a criminal court defending themselves will never have a stronger word than the polices officer.  Our only defense is to record their actions in order to prove we are innocent.

Besides, they can record us at any time.  This is so hypocritical it makes my head spin.  Do people really think that public servants can record us; but with them serving us, we can't make sure how well they do at their job?

Here's an Update


We need to stand up together and make our voices heard for this man.  Besides, he's standing up for ours.

Libya

Don't believe everything you're told.  Doubt everything and do the research on your own.  Here is a video showing the other side of the coin that we're not shown.  I don't know who is right and it's likely a combination of factors.  However, don't be ignorant to the other side of ANY issue.  Here is that other side:

Mortgage Fraud Updates

Here is Max Keiser with his updates on the growing fraud and Anonymous Protests of Wall Street.

Anonymous Updates

Here are the latest updates from Anon Press

Institutionalized Fraud

Here we are in 2011.  Three years after the beginning of the greatest depression great recession.  Some are hopeful for a recovery.  Besides, we've been in bad shape before, right?  Well I have one question for you.  What have we fixed since the crash of 2008?

As far as I can tell, nothing.  The only person to go to jail is Bernie Madoff.  It's pure coincidence that he was stealing from the rich, right?  So why has nobody else gone to jail?  He wasn't the only person committing financial crimes.  He didn't bring down the country on his own.  Do you ever wonder why Obama tells us not to look back?

Nobody goes to jail. This is the mantra of the financial-crisis era, one that saw virtually every major bank and financial company on Wall Street embroiled in obscene criminal scandals that impoverished millions and collectively destroyed hundreds of billions, in fact, trillions of dollars of the world's wealth — and nobody went to jail. Nobody, that is, except Bernie Madoff, a flamboyant and pathological celebrity con artist, whose victims happened to be other rich and famous people. - Matt Taibbi of Rolling Stone

Matt's Piece entitled "Why isn't Wall Street in Jail?" is perfectly on point.  Speaking of, I think we need another quote from that article:

Instead, federal regulators and prosecutors have let the banks and finance companies that tried to burn the world economy to the ground get off with carefully orchestrated settlements — whitewash jobs that involve the firms paying pathetically small fines without even being required to admit wrongdoing. To add insult to injury, the people who actually committed the crimes almost never pay the fines themselves; banks caught defrauding their shareholders often use shareholder money to foot the tab of justice.

How could this be?  Why would the government let these people and institutions go?  In my experience, the real question should be "who benefits?" What benefit does the government have in not prosecuting these people?  Isn't that their job?!?!  To protect the rule of law and the innocent?  It sure doesn't sound like that's their job any longer.

More evidence to throw in the file showing they're not out for justice is the recent revelation that the SEC has been shredding documents for decades. Let's review a couple paragraphs from this article.

That, it now appears, is exactly how the Securities and Exchange Commission has been treating the Wall Street criminals who cratered the global economy a few years back. For the past two decades, according to a whistle-blower at the SEC who recently came forward to Congress, the agency has been systematically destroying records of its preliminary investigations once they are closed. By whitewashing the files of some of the nation's worst financial criminals, the SEC has kept an entire generation of federal investigators in the dark about past inquiries into insider trading, fraud and market manipulation against companies like Goldman Sachs, Deutsche Bank and AIG. With a few strokes of the keyboard, the evidence gathered during thousands of investigations – "18,000 ... including Madoff," as one high-ranking SEC official put it during a panicked meeting about the destruction – has apparently disappeared forever into the wormhole of history.

As a federally protected whistle-blower, Flynn is not permitted to speak to the press. But in evidence he presented to the SEC's inspector general and three congressional committees earlier this summer, the 13-year veteran of the agency paints a startling picture of a federal police force that has effectively been conquered by the financial criminals it is charged with investigating. In at least one case, according to Flynn, investigators at the SEC found their desire to bring a case against an influential bank thwarted by senior officials in the enforcement division – whose director turned around and accepted a lucrative job from the very same bank they had been prevented from investigating. In another case, the agency farmed out its inquiry to a private law firm – one hired by the company under investigation. The outside firm, unsurprisingly, concluded that no further investigation of its client was necessary. To complete the bureaucratic laundering process, Flynn says, the SEC dropped the case and destroyed the files.

So not only are they destroying files, but they're doing it intentionally in order to attain lucrative jobs at the very firms they're charged with investigating.  The SEC isn't even denying that the document shredding took place.  With this information, how can it be any wonder why we had the crisis in 2008?

On that note, lets turn to the most current episode of the Keiser report. Pay special attention to the second half where he interviews Cathrine Austin Fitts, who was Assistant Secretary of Housing and Federal Housing Commissioner at the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development under President George H. W. Bush.

Did you hear Cathrine talking about the creation of the real estate bubble?  She must have been talking about the "robosigner" scandal, right?  I'm sorry to say this, but the robosigner fraud is a very small piece of the much larger mortgage fraud problem.  Here is a recent article in the New York Post describing the ongoing fraud.

In a staggering 92 percent of the claims brought by creditors asserting the right to foreclose against bankrupt families in New York City and the close-in suburbs, banks and mortgage servicer's couldn't prove they had the right to kick the families out on the street, a three-month probe by The Post has shown.

Did you hear that statistic?  Ninety-two percent of mortgage cases brought to court in the New York City area were fraudulent.  Let me explain what has happened.  The big banks in their greed to make as much money as possible created these financial instruments called "Mortgage Backed Securities."  These are financial devices where they roll up a bunch of mortgages into securities, and sell them on the market much like you would a stock, bond, etf, etc.  They are basically selling the ownership of the house.  In the meantime, the same company that sold it's ownership is still taking your monthly mortgage payment.  This causes a fundamental problem, because now the company servicing your mortgage doesn't own it anymore.  Basic contract law states that if you are going to create a loan for someone, you must first own the object being loaned.  This is why these companies are unable to foreclose on 92 percent of the NYC residents they attempted to foreclose on.

I've been reading about this mortgage fraud for quite some time.  About six months ago I sent a letter to Bank of America (my loan servicer) asking for proof that they owned my home.  I got a letter back a few weeks later stating that I had no legal standing to request proof of ownership (which is a lie).  This tells me that they have securitized my loan, nullifying it.

Try it yourself!  The SEIU even has a website dedicated to this end, with pre-written forms to submit to your mortgage servicers.  Let me know what your bank says, I'm willing to put my money on the fact that the majority of people requesting their note won't get it back.

A few weeks ago I spoke with someone whom had paid off their home, stating these fraud cases.  He proceeded to tell me that after paying off his home several years ago he has yet to receive the title to his home.  This is the inherent problem.  Nobody knows who actually owns his home!  So even after being an exceptional debtor and paying all fees and interest, he still doesn't own his home.

This must be why Florida has created the "Rocket Docket." It's a courtroom not dedicated to justice, but to speed.  As stated in the article, one judge even told the local paper that his goal is to resolve 25 cases per hour.  That amounts to kicking a family out of their home every 2.4 minutes, what a lofty goal.

For most people, the former bit about homeowners not paying their damn bills is the important part, while the latter, about the sudden and strange inability of the world's biggest and wealthiest banks to keep proper records, is incidental. Just a little office sloppiness, and who cares? Those deadbeat homeowners still owe the money, right? "They had it coming to them," is how a bartender at the Jacksonville airport put it to me.

But in reality, it's the unpaid bills that are incidental and the lost paperwork that matters. It turns out that underneath that little iceberg tip of exposed evidence lies a fraud so gigantic that it literally cannot be contemplated by our leaders, for fear of admitting that our entire financial system is corrupted to its core — with our great banks and even our government coffers backed not by real wealth but by vast landfills of deceptively generated and essentially worthless mortgage-backed assets.

 This is why our government hasn't been seeking justice.  Think about it, the real estate industry is the biggest part of our economy.  So far every investigation seeking mortgage fraud has found that the vast majority of mortgages are fraudulent.  If this fraud were publicly acknowledged the biggest section of our economy would fail.  As is apparent now, this fraud is so gigantic that it has rotten our financial system to it's very core.

But what's going on at the Jacksonville rocket docket, and in foreclosure courts all across the country, has nothing to do with sloppiness. All this phony paperwork was actually an essential part of the mortgage bubble, an integral element of what has enabled the nation's biggest lenders to pass off all that sub prime lead as AAA gold.

These people impoverish millions and steal trillions of dollars.  There's two words to describe this type of activity: financial terrorism.

Why should we, the people, stand by while the same financial terrorists that crashed our system come in and take everything we have?!?!?!

Weather Manipulation

Yes, you read the title correctly.  I understand skepticism in this area. (Ed note: All my topics?) Let's start with the History Channel Special on Weather Warfare (make sure to watch all four parts):

Pay special attention to the HAARP section.  This is the technology that is in use today.  Next up is the one and only dutchsinse.  Make sure you subscribe to his channel on YouTube.  His information is extremely good.  My favorite part about his info is that you can just pull it up live for your own verification.  I have taken a screenshot of Intellicast.com's live radar map.  This is a shot over Nebraska and Kansas, as can be seen. Do you notice anything funky about it?

I don't know about you, but it looks like there are perfect circles in those cloud formations.  Don't see them?  Take another look.  Oh forget about it, I'll just highlight them for you.

How can this be?  I don't know about you but I'm positively certain that nature doesn't work in perfect circles. It must be just an unusual anomoly of radar, right?  I don't think so.

How can this be?  Well you saw an idea in the history channel episode.  Now for the hard data. For a brief video overview of how this is done, the video below is very important.

Are you still a skeptic?  Lets try his video from a couple days ago, 8/8/2011.

Here is his follow up video about these exact predictions.

This looks to me like the current weather patterns are odd for a reason.

Must read Fukushima News

Update: Another video of major radiation found in rain in the Toronto area.

It just keeps getting worse.  I apologize for being the bearer of bad news but this is world around us.  If you can't deal with the world, then get out.  We can only resolve our problems by being honest with ourselves and each other.

Lets start with this with an absolute must-read from the Intercept Blog.  Here is a quote from the opening paragraph:

Fukushima nuclear power plant radiation recordings of external gamma radiation have been so high this week, they went off scale said veteran nuclear expert Arnie Gunderson on Thursday after the famous physicist, Dr. Chris Busby told the Japanese people this week that radioactive air contamination there is now 300 times that of Chernobyl and 1000 times the atomic bomb peak in 1963, inferring that hundreds of millions of people are now dying from Fukushima radiation, including people in the United States.

As recommended by Fiat's Fire, one of my two daily must-reads comes the story of TEPCO saying it has lost contact with 143 employees? Something tells me they didn't lose contact by accident.

They also recommended the blog of EX-SKF.  After reading a few posts of theirs, I'd have to agree.  That should be the must-read place concerning anything Fukushima related.

Truth is Refreshing

Go Dylan!  Finally some truth out of the mainstream media.  This is how pissed off the middle class is and it's great to hear someone in the mainstream express it.

CRITICAL!!! Bill Quietly Moving Forward During Debt Ceiling Theater

The debt ceiling fiasco serves the government in many ways, not just the reasons outlined previously. While everyone talks about the debt ceiling that will be raised anyway these are the real laws being passed.

Currently moving forward from committee in the house is a bill that forces ISP's to record everyone's every internet move for twelve months and makes them accessible to government entities such as law enforcement.  You'll find the bill here.

It's funny, because this bill doesn't really stop anything illegal from happening online.  If a criminal wanted to stay anonymous, they could use a Proxy Server, a VPN connection, or they could just walk into a Starbucks and use their wireless.

Did you notice the name of the Bill?  The "Protecting Children from Internet Pornographers Act of 2011."  Are they protecting children from viewing internet pornography?  Or are they wording it so it sounds like they're protecting children from child pornographers?  That's funny, because this bill does neither of those things.  How about a quote from the article:

"The bill is mislabeled," said Rep. John Conyers of Michigan, the senior Democrat on the panel. "This is not protecting children from Internet pornography. It's creating a database for everybody in this country for a lot of other purposes."

Knowing that we can't stop any relatively smart criminal engaged in illegal activity online; what might those "other purposes" be?  My guess is that the main purpose is to track and ultimately crack down on individuals that challenge the status quo.  Even just today the South Carolina Police were on alert after a political activitst 'liked' an article on Facebook.  Hell, just for having this blog I could be labeled a "Terrorist."  Once they label me a terrorist they can lock me up indefinitely without charging me, or having any evidence that I've done something illegal.  They can already detain anyone indefinitely, they were just waiting for an efficient solution to find out who to detain.

Bye Bye rule of Law, I hardly knew ye

Silence Is Golden

It's becoming glaringly obvious that the mainstream media doesn't report what's important to the slave working class anymore.  Oh sure, there are small pieces of truth here and there, but did you read about anything that actually affected your life recently?  How much time last week was spent in the mainstream talking about the Casey Anthony case?  Does that case have ANY effect on your life? 

There are endless examples of misinformation, spin, and outright avoidance of important issues in our lives.  Thanks to the Internet, the common man can still find this information.  If it wasn't for the Internet, we wouldn't have this swell of people waking up to the lies spouted all around them.

The first topic that comes to mind is the nuclear one.  How many of you have heard of the flooding problems in the Fort Calhoun Nuclear plant in Nebraska last month?  It was a topic on Alternative media for weeks before enough pressure built up on the mainstream to produce minimal and downplaying reports.

What about Fukushima?  We haven't heard anything in the media for months on this issue.  Most people would assume that this means that the problem has been resolved and we're out of the woods.  I'm afraid not.  The Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear disaster has gotten so bad that a Japanese nuclear director has recently stated that those living in Fukushima Prefecture don't have a right to live without massive radiation. 

Update: Radiation Detected at the Base of Ventilation Stack for Reactors 1 and 2 shows 10 Sv/hr.  This is the Maximum threshold of their Geiger Counters and thus, is likely higher.  As Wikipedia Shows, with 6-18 minutes of exposure to this level of radiation you would experience symptoms such as "Mild to severe nausea, loss of appetite, infection; more severe bone marrow, lymph node, spleen damage; recovery probable, not assured."  After a mere 36 minutes at 10Sv/hr a person would experience "central nervous system impairment, death expected."  After an hour or more "Incapacitation and Death Occur."

All we heard in the media was the President talking about how the radiation wouldn't make it here.  If he was right, then why did the EPA quickly raise radiation limits?  As you can see below, radiation from Japan has made it to North America.

I could write a whole article about Fukushima and the silence by itself, but I'll leave that for another day.

How about the biggest energy crisis before this, the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill.  We haven't heard anything about this for months or over a year in most cases.  Apparently the Mainstream is ignoring the continuing health crisis for the residents of the area.

How about recent evidence that the GOP allegedly rigged the 2004 election?  Are you surprised?  Don't be.

Have you ever thought about why these issues aren't being covered? 

The simplest question and the one you should ask yourself in EVERY problem is "cui bono," or in English, who benefits?

Remember what class the editors and anchors fall under.  Do you think it affects them if main street is being slaughtered?  Of course not, which is why you'll see minimal reporting regarding it.  Yet how much reporting do you see that concerns wall street?  You could turn to any mainstream station at any given time and 90% of the time you'll see news concerning wall street.

Heck, just spend one hour of your day researching the Rupert Murdoch (owner of News Corp, which owns FOX, New York Times, Dow Jones, etc.) scandal in the UK.  Do you think it's any different here?  This is how the mainstream media does business.
This is why alternative and local citizen driven media is so important in our time.  Did you know that you can find the best information on YouTube?  Go ahead and try it.  This is why the government is working so hard to shut down the Internet and the ability of you and me to speak about what is important to us.  The more citizens report what they see, the more truth comes out.  It's up to each and every one of us to start throwing our money and time towards citizen reporters and Internet freedom.  The more people communicate without major media, the more we realize that people across the world want the same things.  We don't want to kill each other.  All we want are the basics; food, water, shelter, love and family.

Mainstream media survives off of us.  It's time to cut the umbilical cord.

The Debt Cieling Theater

How many of you think the debt ceiling scare tactics debate is a serious one? Well I hate to burst your bubble, but this is just another political act to steal your money.

Update: A Great analysis showing the debt deal as a total sham

Down to the basic issue.... How do we fix a debt problem with more debt? That's akin to giving a crack addict more crack so they don't get sick. Once he's out of that, you'll have to give the addict more and more and more. Eventually, there isn't enough crack in the world to satisfy the addict, and he goes into withdrawals and gets sick anyway. That's exactly what we're going here. You can't fix a debt problem with more debt, it's impossible.

What would happen if we didn't raise the ceiling? There would certainly be a lot of effects, but Obama's scare tactic that Social Security Checks won't go out just doesn't hold water unless we've been lied to this whole time.  What happened to the $2.6 Trillion Social Security Trust Fund? To Quote Forbes:

"Social Security status-quo defenders have assured us for the past 25 years that Social Security is fully funded—for the next 25 years, or 2036. So if there are real assets in the Social Security Trust Fund—$2.6 trillion allegedly—then how could failure to reach a debt-ceiling agreement possibly threaten seniors’ Social Security checks?

The answer is that the federal government has borrowed all of that trust fund money and spent it, exactly as Krauthammer asserted. And the only way the trust fund can get some cash to pay Social Security benefits is if the federal government draws it from general revenues or borrows the money—which, of course, it can’t do because of the debt ceiling."

So basically the government has been stealing "borrowing" our retirement money. Another reason they have to raise the debt ceiling is because if they don't they're going to have a LOT of angry people knocking at their door and asking them where their hard earned money is.

Let's pull a quote from one of my favorite blogs and an every day must-read, Fiat's Fire.

"The fact that we are here today to debate raising America's debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. It is a sign that the U.S. Government can not pay its own bills. It is a sign that we now depend on ongoing financial assistance from foreign countries to finance our Government's reckless fiscal policies. Increasing America's debt weakens us domestically and internationally. Leadership means that, "the buck stops here.' Instead, Washington is shifting the burden of bad choices today onto the backs of our children and grandchildren. America has a debt problem and a failure of leadership. Americans deserve better." - Senator Obama, March, 2006

So there you have it from the Prez himself.  I wonder what changed his tune?  I think this change of tune is due to the people yanking his chain.  Obviously, if he believed that statement then we wouldn't be going through this debt ceiling crap.  As stated earlier, you don't solve a debt problem with more debt.  But then again, without more debt the people running the banks (ed note: the Chain yankers) will have to settle for a JetStream 4 instead of a Jetstream 5 for their private jets.

Is anyone familiar with the Term "Problem, Reaction, Solution?"  This is a perfect example of that idea in action.  First we come up with a manufactured problem, the debt ceiling.  From this problem spawns all the drama that has been bantered about every couple of months.  Then they roll out the solution, which was the goal all along.  The ruling class wants our earned entitlement money.  Since they already have it, they create this problem and then have a solution that they need to steal reform the entitlement system because of this manufactured problem.  That way they get to keep the money they stole from us already without anyone noticing.

Does anyone still think this is a real problem?  It's a problem for them.  But for the working class in America... we don't need it.  We are past the point of no return anyway, extending the status quo just makes the rich and powerful more rich and powerful and the slave working class poorer and more indebted.  Welcome to America!

Who is Anonymous?!

If you've listened to the bull**** mainstream media, you might think that anonymous is a group of traitors/hackers/prank artists.  Well, you would be mostly wrong.  They might be traitors to the government, but has anyone considered that the government itself is now treasonous?  They ignore the constitution every time it doesn't benefit them.  It is now time to take our power back from this treasonous beast ourselves.  As Thomas Jefferson once said... "All tyranny needs to gain a foothold is for people of good conscience to remain silent. " or "Experience hath shewn, that even under the best forms of government those entrusted with power have, in time, and by slow operations, perverted it into tyranny."

Like the end of the movie states, anonymous is not a person, or even a group of people.  It is the idea of a means to take our power back.  Wasn't government created to serve the people?  Well, it doesn't serve the people any longer and the only way to get it back is to fight for it.

How do you hurt a big corporation?  What does a big corporation need to survive?  They need money.  There is a big percentage of business done on the web now.  So when someone/thing infringes on our rights, we hit them where it hurts, the pocketbook.  It must be stressed that anonymous doesn't steal information harmful to you and me.  They steal emails and contact information of those infringing on our rights so we may know and detect their harmful activity.  Remember climate-gate?  The proof that the biggest organizations of the world were lying about global warming?!  Or how about the constant food supply attack by GMO giant, Monsanto.  Yeah, they're targets too.  This is the type of activity condoned by Anonymous.  Anonymous is for the truth in all respects.  If these people/organizations were doing the right thing then they wouldn't care if the information came to light.  The reason they hate it is because they know they're lying and keeping the truth from you.

Besides, have you ever thought about the openly acknoleged government spying that has been going on thanks to the unconstitutional "Patriot Act"?  They're recording every call you make, every text message you send, where you go, who you talk to, etc.  There are Countless Examples of this but here are just a few that I could get in five minutes from an easy google search, here, here, here, and here.

Follow my logic here.  So they can spy on us at every turn.  Yet when we do any such thing to them, it's a "National Security Threat."  But wait, don't they work for us?!  So we're paying their wages, but we can't see what they do?!

You can guess how the rotten bastards government minions have reacted to this.  One method is called the Protect IP Act.  This bill is so broad that it even does away with fair-use copyright laws on the Internet.  Therefore, if you were to post a copyrighted video (as I have done above) it is a felony offense.  Yes, you read that correctly.

In comes Anonymous.

Anonymous is your neighbors, your friends.  We are every human being fighting for freedom.  We will not back down.  Join me in fighting for our freedom!
We Are Anonymous.
We Are Legion.
We Do Not Forgive.
We Do Not Forget.

Is Depression Two Avoidable?

First, I must establish that I am not an economist.  However, I do possess some thinking ability and some decent math skills.  Therefore, I will be going over this as a layperson, for a layperson.

So, let's start off with basics.  According to US Debt Clock.org our sovereign national debt as of this writing is 14.498 Trillion dollars. Any thinking individual would now compare this number to our GDP (for credit worthiness).  According to the CIA Factbook our estimated GDP for 2010 was 14.66 Trillion Dollars.  Simplified, GDP is the value of every good and service produced in this country minus debts (essentially our net income). Doing the math, this puts our Debt to Income ratio at approximately 98.89%.  In our current system, we need people to loan us money.  Do you really think that's going to happen forever with a debt to income ratio like that and accelerating exponentially?  I thought exponential growth was good!

Now, I have a simple question, and one that nobody seems to be asking.  To whom do we owe this money?  Despite what most people tell you, according to two sources, The Congressional Budget office, and Political Calculations, the biggest holder of our debt is US Citizens and Institutions.  How ironic is this??!  We're being told that in order to balance the budget, we as US Citizens need to take a haircut.  So we need to take a haircut in order to pay ourselves?!?! Sign me up

Let's back up a bit.  How about the entire world's debt?  Economist.com puts the entire world's debt at 39.846 Trillion dollars and counting.  But, this number doesn't make sense either.  If the entire world is the entire economy, how can it owe any money at all?  Common sense says this number should always be 0.  Therein lies the biggest problem with the world we live in.  Whom does the world owe this money to?  I don't know about you, but I don't owe any money to Extra-Terrestrials (anymore).

How can the world owe money?  There are two things our basic monetary system is based on that will answer this question.  The first and most simple of the two is that we, the people of the United States (as well as most of the world) don't own our own currency.  Look at the Bills in your wallet, notice that they say "Federal Reserve Notes?"  The federal reserve owns the dollar.  But as most of my readers probably know, it is a private bank owned by private interests.  Who are these private interests?  Good luck finding specific names and numbers, people get killed looking for that information.  The best synopsis can be found in a four part article series starting here.  So, if private bankers own our entire money supply; which also own the private central banking system of the majority of the world; it stands to reason that they are likely the majority stakeholders of the debt of the entire world.

The second cause which was also built into the system is the fractional reserve banking system.  This is how banks lend money.  As an example of how this works lets say that the government decided to create $100 to pay you for an infrastructure project.  First, they request the money from the private Federal Reserve, which sells it to the government at $100 plus the going interest rate at that time. Now if you think about how that works, if only $100 was created but $100 plus interest is owed back to the Fed, obviously it doesn't exist and this is the number one cause of our national debt as stated earlier.  (I got side tracked, back to fractional reserve banking.)  You take your $100 and deposit it in your bank account.  The bank can then lend (according to US Law) 90% of the deposited funds.  So, they lend $90 of it out to another fellow.  He deposits the $90 in his bank account, of which that bank lends out $81 to another fellow and on and on it goes.  Of the original $100 that was created, now there is a total of $900 in debt that gets created (90+81+72.90.......).  Yet $800 of that $900 in debt doesn't exist.  Where does it come from?

Don't believe the fed is a private bank and unaccountable to anyone? Read this. (Yes it does say that the fed lent $16 TRILLION without asking anyone......)

If you would like more information on these issues.  There are some amazing movies out there that will illustrate it further.  My two favorites are below.  They are both full-length movies but they are absolute MUST WATCH movies for any aware individual.

So from these two fundamental problems with our system rises an exponential Income disparity gap.  This occurs because we all know that due to these basics and others, debt is exponential.  Since we already know that this debt is owed to a small number of people we have our cause of this exponential Income disparity gap.  This is also why the powerful will stop at nothing to keep up the status quo.

Getting back to our original question, is depression two avoidable?  Not when it's baked into the pie.  The only chance I see is to change the recipe of the pie. (ed note: I give this a 5% probability.)  I think this recipe change was outlined very well in "The Secret of Oz." The question is how does this happen?  How do we change it when the people benefiting from it are the people that control it?  Good luck getting corruption to "un-corrupt" itself.  Also, I hate to burst the bubble, but any aware individual on main street knows depression number two is already here.  It just hasn't hit Wall-Street just yet. (I give it months).  Could you imagine being in this crowd?  After you see that, imagine what it'll look like when extended unemployment runs out at the end of the year.  The real question is what do we do to minimize the impact of our economy going bust.

There are many solutions. The best solution in my opinion is to unplug from this game of economy and dollars.  This is known to me as peaceful non-compliance.  Don't get me wrong, this solution takes time and a serious change to your daily life (I'm still not there yet either).  This is done in many ways, through buying local goods, becoming self-sufficient, or even using cash or a local currency as much as possible. Form your own local economy.  All that is needed to form a local economy is the willingness and the participation of a local group of people to do as much business as possible with people in the group.  We already have the tools to accomplish this!  Forming a community is KEY to surviving the economic mess ahead of us.

Remember, WE gave this beast our permission by giving it our money.  Money = time+effort = power.  If we give them our power then we have nobody to blame but ourselves.

Once enough of us do this, our economy will crash, but will you care?  You don't need it anymore and THAT is freedom.

The First Post (A Manifesto)

Well, here we are.

How did we get here? Where is here? Where are we going?

First, I'm going to briefly open with how I got here.  I had a sudden 'awakening' in late 2007/early 2008.  When I look back, there have been many things that led me to this.  But, it all came about very late on a weeknight.  I saw this DVD a coworker had given me.  Scribbled on it was the Title, "Zeitgeist: The Movie."  Now, putting it lightly, this movie rocked my world.  I had always known something was wrong with society, but I could never put my finger on it.  I didn't agree with everything in the movie, but most of it really hit home as making so much sense.  Since then I can't take in enough information.  Finally, I feel prepared and intelligent enough on the fallacies of society to help bring them to light so we can ultimately evolve.  We are here on this planet to learn and grow as beings, so lets do it!


So where are we exactly?  Well, my country is fighting four wars, which aren't "technically" wars.  There are no jobs.  Our country is deeply in debt.  Necessities for life are dwindling.  The climate is changing around us. My Government is turning into a totalitarian/fascist state.  Corruption is everywhere.  Mainstream Media is a joke.  Academia is a Joke.  Mainstream history is wrong.  The Sick Industry is just that. (Depressing, huh?)

Actually, it isn't.  This is humanity's greatest opportunity!  This is the time where we throw off our shackles and gain true freedom.  The collapse of the economy is exactly what we need.  Those in power are there because of money, pure and simple.  If the money system fails, all their power is gone.  All of the sudden the rich will have to work to survive.  We already do that!  This is nothing new to us.  This is the time to rise up and create a system that benefits everyone.  We have the opportunity and the imagination, it's time to do the work.  If I had a choice of what time in history to be born, this would be it.

Where do we go from here?  There are two ways.  One of them leads to more slavery, corruption, deceit, and pain.  The other leads to liberation and true freedom.  We are all creators of our world, and so it is up to US to change it.  First, we need to figure out what is currently wrong so that we can fix the problem instead of treating symptoms.  This blog is dedicated to the spread of truth so that we can help in a small way to lead us to true freedom.

I don't have all the answers.  However, I will provide as much information as I can from all angles so that we may be educated and able to fix what ails us.

As one people we can acheive freedom.  For the divided there is only slavery.
