The Final Phase Of The 2008 Crash Dead Ahead: Our Denial Of The Inevitable Is Creating The Inevitable. America Is Obsessed With Cheap Money, Bull Markets, Profits, Consumerism, Fiscal Cliffs. Washington Is Setting Up A New Crash And You’re Not “Going To Get Early Warning Signal When New Bank Meltdown Hits

     The “deal” calls for $43 in new taxes for every $1 in spending cuts. What a sellout by the senate republicans.

One can only hope the house republicans have more balls and kill this pathetic sellout.

NEW REPUBLICAN MATH: $1 IN CUTS FOR EVERY $41 IN TAXES

 

According to the Congressional Budget Office, the last-minute fiscal cliff deal reached by congressional leaders and President Barack Obama cuts only $15 billion in spending while increasing tax revenues by $620 billion—a 41:1 ratio of tax increases to spending cuts.

We ‘May’ Have A Spending Problem

One of those occasions when one picture really does speak a thousands words.

Houston, we may have a spending problem.

PAUL B. FARRELL: Stock market will blindside investors in 2013

Let’s look past the typical avalanche of noisy predictions into the insanity that’s ahead in 2013. First, the final phase of the 2008 crash that the Pessimist sees coming. Then, the  stock market’s surprising 2012 trouncing of the New Normal’s predicted single-digits returns.

Finally, we’ll examine four unpredictable black swans that can easily spoil Wall Street’s party in 2013.

Pessimist sees the final phase of the 2008 crash dead ahead

Remember, Wall Street’s disastrous 2008 credit crash cost investors over $10 trillion in losses and drove the federal debt above $16 trillion. Whatever the President and Congress do with the fiscal cliff, America’s debt will keep rising.

Bloomberg Market exposed this danger in an article about  bond investor Jeffrey Gundlach, who’s doing a flip-flop as we speak: “Bond guru buying stocks. Sees ‘Kaboom’ Ahead,” something overwhelming that will even dwarf the bizarre fiscal-cliff insanity: Yes, there’s a “financial catastrophe on the horizon.”

Gundlach, the CEO of DoubleLine Capital, who predicted the 2008 Wall Street credit meltdown, says it’s real damage is still to come. Earlier at TCW Group, he had a 7.9% annual average return for the 2000-2009 decade. He warns: “The first phase of the coming debacle consisted of a 27-year buildup of corporate, personal and sovereign debt. That lasted until 2008.”

Then all that cheap money “finally toppled banks and pushed the global economy into a recession, spurring governments and central banks to spend trillions of dollars to stimulate growth.” America piled on an estimated $29.7 trillion in debt in the shadow markets.

No early warning signal when new bank meltdown hits

Gundlach’s now predicting an “ominous third phase,” a bigger crash, one whose impact will far exceed the damage of 2008: “Deeply indebted countries and companies” won’t default till after 2013.” Meanwhile, Washington and the Fed will keep kicking the can down the fiscal road. “Central banks may forestall these defaults by pumping even more money into the economy,” but “at the risk of higher inflation in coming years.”

He admits he doesn’t really know exactly when this final phase will trigger, but warns you’re not “going to get some sort of an early warning” signal. He has “no faith” that any fiscal-cliff deal will resolve the deficit.

“Tax hikes on the wealthy wouldn’t bring in enough revenue” and politicians won’t “make major cuts in entitlement programs because the public overwhelmingly supports them.” Yes, Washington is setting up a new crash….

"WHAT EXACTLY IS OBAMA TRYING TO ACCOMPLISH WITH ALL HE HAS DONE TO OUR MILITARY?" (SEE LIST OF EVENTS)

Posted By: Seawitch Date: Sunday, 30-Dec-2012 20:10:19

IMO, AFTER REVIEWING TERI'S LIST, OBAMA'S GOAL IS TO DESTROY OUR MILITARY EVERY WAY POSSIBLE THAT HE CAN - OUR MILITARY NEEDS TO WAKE UP TO OBAMA'S GAME PLAN. ALSO, CONGRESS IS WALKING HAND IN HAND WITH OBAMA FOR LETTING HIM GET AWAY WITH ALL OF HIS INCOMPETENT DECISIONS AND VIOLATIONS AGAINST OUR MILITARY AND AMERICAN CITIZENS.

I HAVE FOLLOWED OBAMA SINCE HE BECAME A SENATOR IN ILLINOIS, SWEARING ON THE KORAN AND SAW THE NEWSPAPER ARTICLES ON HIM THEN.

BOTTOM LINE... OBAMA WANTS TO DESTROY OUR MILITARY, AMERICAN CITIZENS, THE AMERICAN WAY OF LIFE, OUR CULTURE AND TRADITIONS.

GET IT??? OBAMA HATES AMERICA .

LOCK AND LOAD....

NOTHING LIKE AN ELDERS' WISDOM OF EXPERIENCES TO OVER WHELM YOUTH....

Like I said, I supply, you decide but here's my take...

It Barry Soetoro (real name) is not a TRAITOROUS MURDERER.... at the VERY LEAST.... he is a LUNATIC!

BTW... His claim to have killed Osama Bin Laden, total utter BS and that would be a clear indication why most if not all now of Seal Team 6 are dead...

Shhhhhhhhhhhhhh you're not supposed to notice or remember...

Usama bin Laden has died a peaceful death due to an untreated lung complication, the Pakistan Observer reported, citing a Taliban leader who allegedly attended the funeral of the Al Qaeda leader.

[Fox News. December 26, 2001] By DAVID CRARY: NEW YORK (AP) – The killing of Osama bin Laden during a raid by Navy SEALs on his hideout in Pakistan was the top news story of 2011, followed by Japan‘s earthquake/tsunami/meltdown disaster, according toThe Associated Press‘ annual poll of U.S. editors and news directors.

New York Times Reported Bin Laden Dead In 2001 By Amir Taheri
Published: July 11, 2002

Osama bin Laden is dead. The news first came from sources in Afghanistan and Pakistan almost six months ago: the fugitive died in December 2001 and was buried in the mountains of southeast Afghanistan. Pakistan’s president, Pervez Musharraf, echoed the information. The remnants of Osama’s gang, however, have mostly stayed silent, either to keep Osama’s ghost alive or because they have no means of communication.

With an ego the size of Mount Everest, Osama bin Laden would not have, could not have, remained silent for so long if he were still alive. He always liked to take credit even for things he had nothing to do with. Would he remain silent for nine months and not trumpet his own survival?

Even if he is still in the world, bin Ladenism has left for good.Mr. bin Laden was the public face of a brand of politics that committed suicide in New York and Washington on Sept. 11, 2001, killing thousands of innocent people in the process. –New York Times

Goverment Dependents Outnumber Those With Private Sector Jobs In 11 U.S. States

Government Dependents Outnumber Those With Private Sector Jobs In 11 U.S. States

By Michael, on December 26th, 2012

The Number Of People On Welfare Exceeds The Number Of People With Jobs In 11 StatesAmerica is rapidly becoming a nation of takers.  An increasing number of Americans expect the government to take care of them from the cradle to the grave, and they expect the government to dig into the pockets of others in order to pay for it all.  This philosophy can be very seductive, but what happens when the number of takers eventually outnumbers the number of producers?  In 11 different U.S. states, the number of government dependents exceeds the number of private sector workers.  This list of states includes some of the biggest states in the country: California, New York, Illinois, Ohio, Maine, Kentucky, South Carolina, Mississippi, Alabama, New Mexico and Hawaii.  It is interesting to note that seven of those states were won by Barack Obama on election night.  In California, there are 139 "takers" for every 100 private sector workers.  That is crazy!  The American people have become absolutely addicted to government money, and it gets worse with each passing year.  If you can believe it, entitlements accounted for 62 percent of all federal spending in fiscal year 2012.  It would be one thing if we could afford all of this spending, but unfortunately we simply cannot.  We are drowning in debt, and we are stealing more than a hundred million more dollars from future generations with each passing hour.  No bank robber in history can match that kind of theft.

Yes, we will always need a safety net.  There are many people out there that simply cannot take care of themselves.  We certainly don't want to see anyone sleeping in the streets or starving to death.

But if the number of people jumping on to the safety net continues to grow at the current pace, the net will break and it will not be available for any of us.

For example, the number of Americans on food stamps grew from about 17 million in 2000 to more than 47 million today.  It nearly tripled in just 12 years.

What will happen if it nearly triples again over the next 12 years?

The federal government even has a website (benefits.gov) that guides people through the process of figuring out what welfare programs they can take advantage of.

Overall, the federal government runs nearly 80 different "means-tested welfare programs" and more than 100 million Americans are already enrolled in at least one of those programs.

Yes, I realize that figure is very hard to believe.  I had a hard time believing it when I first came across it.

And it is even more shocking when you realize that the figure of 100 million Americans does not even include those who only receive Social Security or Medicare.

Today, there are 56.76 million Americans on Social Security.

To support all of those Americans on Social Security, there are only about 94.75 million full-time private sector workers.

So there are just 1.67 full-time private sector workers to support each American that is on Social Security.

Medicare is also growing like crazy.  As I wrote about the other day, the number of Americans on Medicare is expected to grow from 50.7 million in 2012 to 73.2 million in 2025.

How much farther can we push things before the entire system collapses?

In order to support this exploding entitlement system, we need a lot more Americans to be working good paying jobs.

Unfortunately, millions of good paying jobs continue to be shipped overseas and they aren't coming back.

We are even losing good jobs to our own prisoners.  The United States has the largest prison population in the world by far, and the exploitation of that low wage labor pool has become a boom industry in America.  Even Microsoft and Boeing are using prison labor now.  Just check out this video.

Meanwhile, there are millions upon millions of law-abiding Americans that cannot find jobs and that cannot take care of their families.

So poverty and dependence on the government are absolutely exploding.  We have a system that is so messed up that it is hard to even put it into words.  The middle class is being viciously shredded, and most Americans just continue to applaud the politicians from both parties that are doing this to us.

Our economy is being gutted at the same time that the welfare state is experiencing unprecedented growth.  Instead of giving us real answers, our "leaders" just continue to borrow, spend and print more money.  We are about to hit the debt limit again, and the Obama administration is saying that we should just do away with the debt limit permanently.

Most of our politicians don't seem to understand that they are systematically destroying our economy and the bright futures that our children and our grandchildren were supposed to have.

But there are some politicians out there that get it.  Unfortunately, many of them live in other countries.  For example, Canadian MP Pierre Poilievre seems to have a firm grasp on what debt is doing to the United States.  The following are some excerpts from one of his speeches...

"By 2020, the US Government will be spending more annually on debt interest than the total combined military budgets of China, Britain, France, Russia, Japan, Germany, Saudi Arabia, India, Italy, South Korea, Brazil, Canada, Australia, Spain, Turkey, and Israel."

"Through government spending the indulgence of one is the burden of another; through government borrowing, the excess of one generation becomes the yoke of the next; through international bailouts, one nation's extravagance becomes another nation's debt"

"Everyone takes, nobody makes, work doesn't pay, indulgence doesn't cost, money is free, and money is worthless."

You can see his entire speech right here.

And if we continue down this path it is most definitely true that our money will eventually become worthless at some point.  Just today I was down at the grocery store, and a can of chili that I was able to get on sale for 75 cents a couple of years ago now has a "sale price" of $1.69.  If the Federal Reserve keeps recklessly printing dollars, eventually we will be fortunate to get a can of chili for 10 bucks.  Things cost too much already, and the Fed seems absolutely determined to cut the legs out from under the U.S. dollar.

Unfortunately, printing money is the only way that we are going to be able to service the gigantic amounts of debt that we are accumulating.

According to Chris Cox and Bill Archer, two men who served on Bill Clinton's Bipartisan Commission on Entitlement and Tax Reform, there is no way in the world that we could raise taxes high enough to pay for all of the obligations that we are currently taking on.  They say that even if we taxed all corporations and all individuals at a 100% tax rate on all income over $66,193,  "it wouldn't be nearly enough to fund the over $8 trillion per year in the growth of U.S. liabilities."

Are you starting to get an idea of how much trouble we are in?

We don't have enough money to pay for all of this.

We are broke.

Our current economy is a debt-induced illusion, and we will soon be waking up to a tremendous amount of pain.

Are you ready?

Obama Scuttles 'Fiscal Cliff' Deal?

Obama Scuttles ‘Fiscal Cliff’ Deal?     

        Monday, December 31, 2012     

obama20con

This afternoon, in one of the more bizarre appearances of his presidency,  Barack Obama gave a televised address to a room full of supporters on the “fiscal cliff.” He broke no news, but mocked Congress, and hinted at future tax  hikes. Observers worried that he may have deliberately scuttled a potential  agreement.

Even though he has come off his last campaign for political office, President  Obama acted like a candidate on the campaign trail–one prepared to use whatever  political capital he had accumulated to take shots at the opposition in Congress  at the very moment leaders from both sides are trying to work together.

Less a President, Obama behaved more like an ESPN talking-head making fun of  RG III’s knee injury.

Obama’s address, which you can watch below, was held basically to announce  that some other people are working on solving the “fiscal cliff” crisis. They  are close, Obama reported, but they aren’t quite there yet. He then proceeded to  make some jokes about Congress, to warm applause from his selected audience.  Smug doesn’t come close to capturing the true nature of his tone.

March To Arrest The President And Congress

March To Arrest The President And Congress
Sunday, December 30, 2012 13:49
 
 

By Anonymous Occupy The White House

November 5th 2013 we the people will march on Washington DC peacefully and unarmed to arrest all members of congress, the president, and all supreme court justices where they will be held without bond until a full independent investigation and trial have been completed. We must re-elect our government within 90 days in order to stave of unrest.

The rEVOLution to Restore the Republic of the United States

First of all please know that this is not a Protest!!!! …This is a Citizen Action.

We need to organize a citizens arrest of all parties involved in the various criminal acts that have put our country as well as our world in jeopardy. This is going to be a lot of people but none the less it must be done. Hopefully there are some Sheriffs, US Marshals, and military personnel that will remember their oaths to this country upon the taking of this action by the people and lend their support and expertise in bringing known criminals to justice.

MARCH ON DC - Citizens Action - November 5th, 2013

What we must do.

The time has come. There are many, many reasons as to why it has come to this but the most important ones are as follows:

First of all it should be perfectly clear that the voting system is not only rigged but also criminally negligent in the handling of our elections from at least 2000 if not further back.

Secondly it should be abundantly clear that the US government has declared war on the American people via such illegal acts as the Homeland Security, Patriot, and National Defense Authorization acts as ALL of the aforementioned acts violate the plain english of the Constitution in one way shape or form.

Third the Supreme Court has failed us in their duty to hear such Constitutional violations much less put a stop to them.

Fourth the President has made himself dictator through various presidential signing statements.

Fifth the US Government has allowed corporations to give orders to America via wars of aggression for resources as well as the many bank bailouts which essentially amount to strong armed robbery of North America as well as the rest of the world.

And finally the police, military, courts, politicians, etc. have failed us in their duty to protect us from tyranny and to have stopped this tyranny from ever having taken hold in the first place.

****We will be meeting at the Washington Monument at 8am on November 5th,2013****

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

FAQ’s

Q: Is this a protest? A: No, this is citizen action to organize a citizens arrest of the criminal element within the United States government.

Q: Is this a violent event? Arresting people sounds like violence. A: No, this is a peaceful action for the people of the United States of America to regain control of their government, arrest and investigate any & all wrong doing, and to bring the guilty to justice. While arresting is a form of assault in this case its justified due to the nature of the crimes.

Q: Doesnt the Congress and the President have immunity to arrest and most prosecution? A: They have diplomatic immunities they have given themselves over the years as well as protections in the Constitution. Due to the nature of the crimes being high treason we believe that all immunities should be voided temporarily until a Congressional review can take place on such immunities. In any case once this action takes place and is successful the Unites States government will be temporarily suspended in order to facilitate a transfer of power back to the people. We believe this period should be no more than 90 days.

Q: What gives anyone the authority to attempt such an action? A: The Declaration of Independence having been adopted by the Constitutional Congress not only gives we the people the authority it also gives us the responsibility to act: “But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.”

Q: How are we supposed to arrest government officials if we are unarmed? A: If we have large enough numbers nothing is impossible. The Colonies defeated the British with only 3% of the population being loyal to the rebels.

Q: Wont they just arrest or shoot us? A: Yes they will attempt to arrest or shoot us but they are already doing that at many protests around the country. If we can gather just 3% of the population at the Capital this amount will be far too many for them to be able to arrest or shoot easily. Lets hope they are stupid enough to tryand arrest or kill that many Americans as we believe this will bring the Oath Keepers, sympathetic military, and general armed populace to our aid securing the moral high ground with the people.

Q: Wouldnt an armed revolt be a better idea? A: In this case no. They only know how to fight armed people. They only understand how to control violent attack as when they are attacked they can claim the moral high ground as it has been with the last few illegal wars claiming Iraq and Afghanistan had been a threat to the US. The Hopi Indians have defeated the US government in this way as a Hopi will not attempt to stop one from killing them. Through this tactic the US government has found it difficult to find mercenaries to kill a group of people who would not fight back.

Q: Should we not fight back if they begin murdering or arresting us? A: We are not suggesting that we not ever fight back in the face of violence. We are merely suggesting that this action remain peaceful until the government becomes violent and begins arresting or shooting the people. This is when we will call upon the armed populace, Oath Keepers, and military to protect us.

Q: Will we be arresting the government officials, or are we just detaining them? A: When we gather at Washington DC, we will organize either an arrest or detainment, depending on what The People have chosen at that time. An arrest will require placing charges before the march, whereas a detainment can give us time to place charges on the officials.

Q: What charges will be brought to the criminals? A: Treason, Extortion, Racketeering, Conspiracy to commit crimes against Humanity, War crimes, Breech of the Geneva Conventions, Violation of the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons, along with other violations of International and Domestic Laws

Q: We are going to arrest All government officials? What about those who have not done anything wrong? Some voted against all those bad laws and got marginalized for it. Should we arrest them too? A: Yes. Everyone is innocent until proven guilty, and if the official has done nothing wrong, then they will be released and given their position of office back to them.

Q: What about the fact that Washington DC is not a part of the United States of America, but is only a District, will that hinder our goal? A: No. There are two entities running our country, the United States of America is the Republic government created by the states, for the states, created by the people, for the people, and there is also the US government, which is a corporate government, or corporation. This federal government, should be called the United States of America, Incorporated. Our Declaration of Independence gives us the freedom to abolish any governments that have sustained oppression and derogation of the People, “But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.”

Q: Is this part of the Occupy or Tea Party Movements? A: No, both movements mentioned are protest movements as this is not a protest but rather a citizen action. This is a response to the US government ignoring the petition of redress of grievances put forth by both of these movements.

Q: Who is the leader of this action? A: This is a leaderless action. There is no individual or group that speaks solely for the action.

Q: Is this part of the Anonymous Movement? A: No, there is no Anonymous movement. There is no single individual or group that is Anonymous. Everyone is Anonymous and yet no one is Anonymous. Anonymous works in cells and individually and this is why Anonymous cant ever be stopped.

We are Legion, Expect us.

Hawaii State Registrar Alvin Onaka Has Publicly Certified To AZ SOS Ken Bennett : Barack Obamas HI B

Hawaii State Registrar Alvin Onaka Has Publicly Certified To AZ SOS Ken Bennett : Barack Obamas HI Birth Certificate Is Legally Non-Valid And The White House Image Is A Forgery.
Saturday, December 29, 2012 12:11
 

BREAKING NEWS – Hawaii state registrar Alvin Onaka has publicly certified to AZ SOS Ken Bennett that Barack Obama’s HI birth certificate is legally non-valid and the White House image is a forgery.(TOH).

As reported to AL HENDERSHOT, Editor of The Obama Hustle.

 

Hawaii state registrar Alvin Onaka has publicly certified to AZ SOS Ken Bennett that Barack Obama’s HI birth certificate is legally non-valid and the White House image is a forgery. He also confirmed to KS SOS Kris Kobach that the information contained in the White House image isNOT “identical to” that in the official record.

Many of you have replied to concerned constituents that the matter is settled by the public statements of Hawaii officials, the HDOH birth index list, the newspaper birth announcements, and Obama’s posted short-form and long-form birth certificates. Onaka’s disclosure – the only one made by a HI official under oath –negates all that and fits the vast legal and forensic evidence collected so far, some of which is in my affidavit (privately posted at for NE criminal case #B2-119.
Sheriff Joe Arpaio and his Cold Case Commander, Mike Zullo (both of whom initially disbelieved the skeptics) have both signed affidavits saying there is legal-quality FORENSIC evidence that Obama’s long-form birth certificate and draft registration are forged.

Onaka has now revealed the REASON for the forgery: to hide the non-validity of the birth record. Evidence in my affidavit proves (among other things) that the 1960-64 birth index includes non-valid records.

Onaka’s disclosure is proof of results-altering election fraud in every state in this country, since fraudulent filing documents were used to place Obama on every state’s ballot. Absent a non-Hawaii birth record, Obama doesn’t even have a legally-determined birth date, place, or parents so nobody can lawfully say he meets the age or citizenship requirements to be President – and yet every Certification of Nomination falsely swears that he is eligible.
EVERY electoral vote for Obama is thus now LEGALLY KNOWN to be fraudulently-obtained and must not be certified as lawful on Jan 8th. As with the Sandusky case, those with knowledge have legal responsibility to act, and that is now you.
Our President has committed perjury 6 times by swearing (in AZ, NC, and WV) that he is eligible, knowing that he has no valid HI birth certificate (and claiming a Kenyan birth in his bio until 2007), and let his spokesmen pass off two forgeries as genuine on his behalf. He knowingly allowed a decorated military surgeon to lose his life’s savings and retirement and spend 6 months in prison for simply wanting to know if his combat orders were lawful, or whether they Constitutionally had to come from Joe Biden instead – who OPPOSED the “surge”.
It appears that many felonies have been committed. An impeachment must precede a criminal investigation and trial, so failure to impeach is obstruction of equal protection & the rule of law – without which, none of your life’s work even matters because the laws you make will only be enforced when politically expedient to the powerful. A banana republic.Read the full story here.

It could be fairly normal to have the markets down over the new year though generally this type of futures signal would end up being a 500 point drop…

Margin Debt Soars To 2008 Levels As Everyone Is “All In”, Levered, And Selling Vol

There were some readers who took offense at our “bloodbath” recap of yesterday’s markets action (modestly different from that provided by MarketWatch). And, all else equal, a modest 28 step drop in the E-Mini/SPX would hardly be earthshattering. However, all else was not equal, and based on peripheral facts, the reason for our qualifier is that as of last week virtually nobody was prepared for a move as violent and sharp as the one experienced in the last minutes of trading yesterday. In such a context a “mere” 1.5% drop in the futures market has a far more pronounced impact on participants than a 10% or even 5% drop would have had, had traders been positioned appropriately. They weren’t. So what was the context? Let’s find out.

First as the NYSE just reported margin debt just soared to a near five year high, with Margin Debt at a whopping $327 billion, surpassing the highest print since the Lehman collapse, and the highest level since February 2008. Not only is everyone all in based on , but they are all in on nearly record amounts of leverage.

Let’s Revisit The Revolutionary War… What Led to it . Also.. case history of Zimbabwe from Democracy to Dictatorship with Gun Registration to Confiscation to Genocide

I am a seeker of TRUTH sharing it with others. Sometimes truth frightens people which is not my intent. My intent is for everyone to claim their own power through knowledge! Everyone has untapped Energy within themselves and truth channeled into LOVE for each other and all things can change our world, we do have the Power on our side! We ARE the Power together and able to change it all through LOVE and LIGHT!

 

I believe it is time to review the 1775-1783 REVOLUTIONARY WAR where Americans won their Independence FOR THEIR CONSTITUTION against England.

It is very interesting, in that the people in America felt they were being taxed without representation in 1776…. hhmmm… sounds a little familiar.

Also that England was doing things against their “constitutional rights” during that time.   hhmm…. that also sounds familiar.

Here is what Wikipedia has about the REVOLUTIONARY WAR where the United States became it’s own country and WHY it happened:

In this article, inhabitants of the thirteen colonies that supported the American Revolution are primarily referred to as “Americans”, with occasional references to “Patriots”, “Whigs”, “Rebels” or “Revolutionaries”. Colonists who supported the British in opposing the Revolution are referred to as “Loyalists” or “Tories”. The geographical area of the thirteen colonies is often referred to simply as “America”.

The American Revolutionary War (1775–1783), the American War of Independence,[8] or simply the Revolutionary War in the United States, began as a war between the Kingdom of Great Britain and the Thirteen Colonies, but gradually grew into a world war between Britain on one side and the newly formed United States of America, France, Netherlands and Spain on the other. The main result was an American victory and European recognition of the independence of the United States, with mixed results for the other powers.

 

The war was the result of the political American Revolution. Colonists galvanized around the position that the Stamp Act of 1765, imposed by Parliament of Great Britain, was unconstitutional.[citation needed] The British Parliament insisted it had the right to tax colonists to finance the colonies’ military defense, which had become increasingly expensive due to the French and Indian Wars. The colonists claimed that, as they were British subjects, taxation without representation in Parliament was illegal. The American colonists formed a unifying Continental Congress and a shadow government in each colony, though at first remaining loyal to the king. The American boycott of taxed British tea led to the Boston Tea Party in 1773, when shiploads of tea were destroyed. London responded by ending self-government in Massachusetts and putting it under the control of the British army with General Thomas Gage as governor. In April 1775 Gage learned that weapons were being gathered in Concord, and he sent British troops to seize and destroy them.[9] Local militia confronted the troops and exchanged fire (see Battles of Lexington and Concord). After repeated pleas to the British monarchy for intervention with Parliament, any chance of a compromise ended when the Congress were declared traitors by royal decree, and they responded by declaring the independence of a new sovereign nation, the United States of America, on July 4, 1776. American Loyalists rejected the Declaration, and sided with the king; they were excluded from power everywhere. American attempts to expand the rebellion into Quebec and the Floridas were unsuccessful.

 

France, Spain and the Dutch Republic all secretly provided supplies, ammunition and weapons to the revolutionaries starting early in 1776. By June 1776 the Americans were in full control of every state, but then the British Royal Navy captured New York City and made it their main base. The war became a standoff. The Royal Navy could occupy other coastal cities for brief periods, but the rebels controlled the countryside, where 90 percent of the population lived. British strategy relied on mobilizing Loyalist militia, and was never fully realized. A British invasion from Canada in 1777 ended in the capture of the British army at the Battles of Saratoga. That American victory persuaded France to enter the war openly in early 1778, balancing the two sides’ military strength. Spain and the Dutch Republic—French allies—also went to war with Britain over the next four years, threatening an invasion of Great Britain and severely testing British military strength with campaigns in Europe. Spain’s involvement resulted in the expulsion of British armies from West Florida, securing the American southern flank. The decisive British naval victory at the Battle of the Saintes thwarted French and Spanish plans to drive Britain out of the Caribbean, and the joint Franco-Spanish attempt to capture the British stronghold of Gibraltar also resulted in similar defeat. French involvement proved decisive[10] yet expensive, ruining France’s economy and driving the country into massive debt.[11] A French naval victory just outside Chesapeake Bay led to a siege by combined French and Continental armies that forced a second British army to surrender at Yorktown, Virginia in 1781. Fighting continued throughout 1782, while peace negotiations began. In 1783, the Treaty of Paris ended the war and recognized the sovereignty of the United States over the territory bounded roughly by what is now Canada to the north, Florida to the south, and the Mississippi River to the west.[12][13] A wider international peace was agreed, in which several territories were exchanged.

There is all kinds of information about the various areas of the war and how it was fought on Wikipedia, here is a little more:

The Americans The Americans began the war with significant disadvantages compared to the British. They had no national government, no national army or navy, no financial system, no banks, no established credit, and no functioning government departments, such as a treasury. The Congress tried to handle administrative affairs through legislative committees, which proved inefficient. In peacetime the colonies relied heavily on ocean shipping, but that was now shut down by the British blockade. The Americans had a large, relatively prosperous population (when compared to other colonies) that depended not on imports but on local production for food and most supplies, something the British could not sufficiently rely on. They were on their home ground, had a smoothly functioning, well organized system of local and state governments, newspapers and printers, and internal lines of communications. They had a long-established system of local militia, previously used to combat the French and Native Americans, with companies and an officer corps that could form the basis of local militias, and provide a training ground for the national army that the Congress set up.[92] Fighting on their home ground, the Americans were also much more acclimatised to the climate than the British and their allies.[citation needed] At the onset of the war, the Americans had no major international allies. Battles such as the Battle of Bennington, Battles of Saratoga and even defeats such as the Battle of Germantown[93] proved decisive in gaining the attention and support of powerful European nations such as France and Spain, who moved from covertly supplying the Americans with weapons and supplies, to overtly supporting them militarily, moving the war to a global stage.[94] Upon the creation of the Continental Army to combat the British forces and their allies in North America, the army suffered significantly from a lack of an effective training regime, and largely inexperienced officers. The inexperience of its officers was compensated for in part by its senior officers; officers such as George Washington, Horatio Gates, Charles Lee, Richard Montgomery and Francis Marion all had military experience with the British Army during the French and Indian conflict. The Americans solved their training dilemma during their stint in Winter Quarters at Valley Forge, where they were relentlessly drilled and trained by Friedrich Wilhelm von Steuben, a veteran of the famed Prussian General Staff. He taught the Continental Army the essentials of military discipline, drills, tactics and strategy, and wrote the Revolutionary War Drill Manual, which was used to train American troops up until the War of 1812.[95] When the Army emerged from Valley Forge, they proved their ability to equally match the British troops in battle when they fought a successful strategic action at the Battle of Monmouth.

 

I found this history very interesting.  It seems that the people had enough of a tyranny government that was taxing and trying to control everything they did.  The people also stood up saying it was unconstitutional.

WOW… it sure is great going back in history especially since we now have a run away government and every elected official has become a traitor to the country.  They have passed legislation over and over again that directly conflicts with our constitution.  From the NDAA bill that allows the detaining of U.S. citizens without any rights, the new bill they just passed that allows all of our electronic emails to be read without warrents and now they are going to take our guns.   Besides that we are now treated as criminals and terrorist and have to prove our innocence instead of being the other way around.

We have a treasonous government that does not recognize the constitution in any form anymore.  They have locked us up in an Orwellian world.  We are watched when driving down the road and walking down the street.  Who knows how they can see into our homes and bedrooms now.   (besides of course phones doing that)

I for one do not understand how the people of this country don’t give a <snip> about their country and what the government does to them.  I guess they are too zombied out and brainwashed with their little smart phones that mean more to them then freedoms.

We have traitors of our constitution and country that are making the laws of this country.  But the laws were all ready set in 1776 when Americans won a hard fought Revolutionary war for their FREEDOMS!

One thing is for sure the Americans of 1776 had the balls to stand up to tyranny and traitors…… Funny how during that time they called those who stood up for their country “Patriots” now they call those who stand up for their country “terrorists.”  Kind of funny how that has turned around…. who would have ever thought people would be considered “terrorists” for being a constitutional law abiding citizen?

With the Feinstein bill in the Senate to confiscate guns including hand guns and registration of all guns, I believe we need to look at current history of what happen if that is allowed to occur.

 

ZIMBABWE CASE HISTORY – DEMOCRACY TO DICTATORSHIP AND GUN CONTROL TO GUN CONFISCATION TO GENOCIDE – BESIDES COLLAPSE OF A CURRENCY (not included in this article).
Please make sure to see how England has supported Mugabe and the Queen has even knighted him when he was committing Genocide against the citizens of Zimbabwe!

 

Mugabe at UN

It is now time to look at the most recent country that was a Democracy that had 3 levels of government for protection.  Zimbabwe, believe it or not had an Executive, Legislative and Judicial branches of government for shared power before 1980 when Mugabe was “elected” as President.  Since 2000 the structure of government completely collapsed.

Since the defeat of the constitutional referendum in 2000, politics in Zimbabwe has been marked by a move from the norms of democratic governance, such as democratic elections, the independence of the judiciary, the rule of law, freedom from racial discrimination, the existence of independent media, civil society and academia. Recent years have seen widespread violations of human rights.

Here is an article on how Mugabe is President for life now and has committed genocide in the country.

The Robert Mugabe government of Zimbabwe is the most corrupt, dysfunctional and incompetent in Africa. And, on a continent that has the most corrupt, dysfunctional and incompetent governments in the entire world, Mugabe’s achievement in this regard is a truly dubious distinction. [The iPINIONS Journal, March 2005]

Five years ago, Zimbabwe was the breadbasket of sub-Saharan Africa; today, it is a basket case of starving people. Five years ago, there were 4000 white-owned farms in Zimbabwe; today, there are only 400 – mostly unproductive – farms left. [The iPINIONS Journal, March 2005]

 

Now… this is MOST interesting about Zimbabwe….. this was written by the “Jewish society for Preservation of gun ownership.

Zimbabwe enacted a gun law that made certain guns illegal and then a National registrar of guns was implemented.   Wow  that sounds totally familiar!   Once the guns were confiscated and the “legal” guns were registered…. the government knew who to target for the kill!

Breaking News – Zimbabwe Gun Confiscation Ordered! What more proof do you need?

So-called sensible gun laws, such as national registration of firearms and licensing of owners, pave the way for gun confiscation. We’ve said it for over 15 years.

We described the process in detail in Death by “Gun Control” (book) and “Innocents Betrayed” (video). We provided copies of the key provisions of the laws that set up “gun control” that later enabled genocide. In our book we even provided copies of the provisions of the gun laws in Zimbabwe. (See pages 190-193).

 

Breaking News — July 2, 2005: The Zimbabwe government has ordered confiscation of civilian firearms.

Read the news item:

http://www.zwnews.com/issuefull.cfm?ArticleID=12207

The news report begins:

“Zimbabwe police have ordered all civilians to surrender firearms in what insiders said was a precautionary measure in a charged country after the government demolished thousands of homes and informal businesses in a controversial urban clean-up exercise.

“Police at the weekend said they were revoking licences for all automatic rifles and some types of pistols and said civilians owning such weapons had until today to surrender them.

“The law enforcement agency did not give reasons for the action but warned Zimbabweans that they could be prosecuted for failing to hand in their guns.”

 

This is no trivial matter. On June 7, 2005, the International Association of Genocide Scholars published a warning about the looming danger of mass murder by government in Zimbabwe.

 

Read the scholars’ declaration:

http://www.genocidewatch.org/ZimbabweIAGSResolution7June2005.htm

Notice that the genocide scholars do see the danger — but they fail to point out that “gun control” with follow-up gun confiscation are two key elements to making the Zimbabwe persecution and genocide possible. The scholars calmly call for various international agencies to “exert diplomatic pressure” on Zimbabwe.

If the Rwanda genocide provides any example, then hoping for international help for persecuted Zimbabweans is beyond foolish, it’s fatally stupid.

People who want to protect their lives and their families and their communities must commit to taking care of the job themselves. Civilian disarmament laws work against people protecting themselves and their families. Those laws (when obeyed) leave the disarmed people subject to persecution and destruction.

The genocide scholars don’t get it. The civilian disarmament (“gun control”) advocates and lobbyists don’t get it.

What will it take for American gun owners and pro-rights citizens to unify against “gun control” and proclaim the vicious injustice that “gun control” laws impose upon innocent people?

Action items: read these articles (above) and forward this Alert to every gun owner you know.

 

What is absolutely reprehensible is the fact that England and the Western countries have supported Mugabe’s genocide and have looked the other way. What is even in-comprehensible is the fact that the Queen of England knighted Mugabee into the “Order of the Bath.” while he was committing genocide against the citizens of Zimbabwe.

At the same time, asked by the BBC Panorama stringers for comment, British deputy high commissioner Roger Martin defended Mugabe’s ethnic cleansing as “comprehensible, it has a certain rationality other than mere brutishness”, he said.

The symbiotic relationship between Mugabe and the British did not end with rhetorical support and money changing hands, but it extended to royal endorsement for Mugabe and his policies.

In 1994 the queen of England invited Mugabe to England’s Buckingham Palace and Knighted him with the Order of Bath when Mugabe’s hands were still dripping with the blood of black civilians slaughtered in the Gukurahundi genocide.

When I have written “We are going Zimbabwe in regards to the money printing the U.S. is doing in previous articles, I had no idea we were going Zimbabwe in all respects.

I have to wonder if there are those at the top of the current U.S. government that have studied history and how to take over and create a dictatorship through “doing the best for the people?”

OUR 2nd Amendment says:

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

Also it is interesting to see where so many people’s mindset is in this country when I read comments about the gun ban.  I see so many calling gun owners “murderers, terrorists, criminals, etc. just for owning a gun.  WOW, who knew that utilizing the 2nd amendment of our constitution would become a criminal event…..

Oh, one other thing… seems the morning shows aren’t mentioning the confiscation of hand guns as part of their news…..  so funny how the network medias work.  Guess they don’t want to let the public as a whole know the government is going for confiscation and registration…. which could possibly lead to ALL confiscation and genocide of the people of the United States when there are no more rights by laws created, by those in Washington for the citizens of the U.S. I am not saying genocide is planned in the U.S., I am saying that history shows genocide happens when the citizens of countries are disarmed for the “betterment of the country and the people’s good.”

Read these Bill of Rights.... and tell me if there is even ONE left……  We have let them take our Rights away one by one…. they have done it slowly but surely.   Every thing in bold is GONE and no more……

Amendment VIII

Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted.


Amendment IX

The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.


Amendment X

The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.

Natural News wrote an article about gun confiscation today.   It is a great read.

I am simply stating history with this article and stating the obvious.  Those who are in Washington D.C. took the oaths to uphold our Constitution and Bill of Rights in these United States, but they have done the opposite.  At what point will we demand our rights be returned and our Constitution be reinstated?   Also by asking these questions and stating the obvious does that make me a “criminal”?   If so… that would mean our 1st amendment is also gone.

I don’t believe we will be able to stop any confiscation of guns because the reality is they will go to individual homes with Swat teams etc.   There is no mass defending of our rights individually.  I believe it will need to be through our justice system and waking people up to the fact we don’t have rights anymore.   I believe the military will need to take a hard look at the destruction of our Bill of Rights and the treason that is being committed.  They took an oath to defend the constitution of the United States. 

Where on this Earth and in what country are people really free?  Tell me that and there will be a mass exodus of Americans.

The Irony Of 47.7 Million Americans Subsisting On Food Stamps

The Irony Of 47.7 Million Americans Subsisting On Food Stamps
Thursday, December 27, 2012 13:15
By Frosty Wooldridge

As of November of 2012, a mind-numbing 47.7 million Americans subsist on taxpayer-funded food stamps.  One in seven Americans cannot feed himself or herself with a job or work of any kind.  What constitutes the irony to this national tragedy?  Answer: our U.S. Congress imports 100,000 legal immigrants into the USA with green cards every 30 days.

No matter how much poverty and unemployment blacks, whites and Hispanic Americans suffer– the leaders of this country continually pound more humans into the mix without pause.  At the same time, food banks go belly up with bare shelves. Over 13 million American children live in destitute poverty and cannot secure three square meals per day.

While Congress supports our enormous military spending into the trillions of dollars and two 10 year long wars that devour (ed) money—it fails to create jobs and feed our poorest.  It fails the fundamental rights of our own citizens to work and eat.

The gross statistics created by our U.S. Congress:  (Source: hubpages.com)

#1 According to one calculation, the number of Americans on food stamps now exceeds the combined populations of “Alaska, Arkansas, Connecticut, Delaware, District of Columbia, Hawaii, Idaho, Iowa, Kansas, Maine, Mississippi, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Oregon, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Utah, Vermont, West Virginia, and Wyoming.”

#2 In October 2008, 30.8 million Americans were on food stamps. By August 2012 that number had risen to 47.1 million Americans.

#3 Right now, one out of every seven Americans is on food stamps and one out of every four American children is on food stamps.

#4 It is projected that half of all American children will be on food stamps at least once before they turn 18 years of age.

#5 According to new numbers that were just released by the U.S. Census Bureau, the number of Americans living in poverty increased to a new all-time record high of 49.7 million last year.

#6 The number of Americans living in poverty has increased by about 6 million over the past four years.

#7Today, about one out of every four workers in the United States brings home wages that are at or below the federal poverty level.

#8According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the poverty rate for children living in the United States is about 22 percent.

#9 Overall, approximately 57 percent of all children in the United States are living in homes that are either considered to be either “low income” or impoverished.

#10 In the United States today, close to 100 million Americans are considered to be either “poor” or “near poor”.

#11 One university study estimates that child poverty costs the U.S. economy 500 billion dollars each year.

#12 Households that are led by a single mother have a 31.6 percent poverty rate.

#13 In 2010, 42 percent of all single mothers in the United States were on food stamps.

Once you research the numbers, you cannot help but look to your own U.S. Senators and House reps and see failure, duplicity and corruption.  No excuses!  How could men and women who are supposed to represent American citizens continually leave American citizens in the grips of poverty, joblessness and homelessness?

Some kind of moral, ethical and spiritual wrong grows in the nation’s capitol all the way up to the president.  American citizens become its victims.

Do you think there is any chance of it changing and becoming better as that same U.S. Congress adds over 3.1 million immigrants every year on our way to adding 100 million immigrants within the next 38 years?

Bagmen Not Statesmen

Bagmen Not Statesmen

26 December 2012

11By Greg Hunter’s USAWatchdog.com

What has been going on in Washington, D.C., since the financial meltdown of 2008 has been a disaster for the country.  Taxpayers bailed out crooked, incompetent bankers while tens of millions lost their homes and jobs.  The bailouts have cost trillions of dollars, and they’re not finished.  The Federal Reserve has set a key interest rate to near zero percent until 2015, and it is printing $85 billion a month to prop up the banks and our own government.  The Fed calls this little operation “open-ended.”  No one has gone to jail for causing this enormous hardship on ordinary Americans, and not a word is spoken in the halls of Congress about stopping the bailouts or bringing criminals to justice.  This is immoral, disgusting, repugnant, nonexistent leadership.

This could have been handled in 2008 with the debt wiped clean.  We should have only protected depositors.  Bankers, bondholders and shareholders be <snip>ed—that’s capitalism.  It would have cost about $6 trillion back then, and we’d be on our way to a real recovery by now.  That is exactly what Iceland did.  It told bankers, shareholders and bondholders to take a big hit instead of giving a bailout for incompetence and fraud.  Oh, and it prosecuted the bankers and government officials that allowed the implosion to happen!  (Click here for more on Iceland’s turnaround.)  Instead, the Federal Reserve alone pumped out $16 trillion in the wake of the 2008 meltdown.  That is only part of the banker bailout that is still going on to the tune of $40 billion a month.  Not a single financial elite has been prosecuted and put behind bars for obvious crime and fraud—not one!

Meanwhile, the dog and pony show called the “fiscal-cliff” is playing out like a gigantic blame game.  All we have to hear is the splat for the finger pointing to kick into high gear.  Both Democrats and Republicans are to blame for not standing up and making the hard choices to put the country on firm financial footing.  They may act stupid, but I believe they know full well what’s going on.  Renowned gold expert, Jim Sinclair, has a saying for things like this, “It’s too stupid to be stupid.”   Meaning, it’s intentional. 

Our own elected leaders turn a blind eye and a deaf ear to fraud and crime year after year.  The government also allows the banks to value assets at whatever they think they will be worth in the future.  This government sanctioned accounting fraud has been allowed since April of 2009.  Meaning, the Fed can’t print money fast enough to fix the gigantic mess.  Meanwhile, the Federal Reserve continues buying $40 billion a month in “toxic” mortgage debt created by the bankers.  This stuff was supposed to be “Triple A” rated debt, equal to the “risk free return” of Treasury bonds.  Imagine the government selling you Treasury bonds and later tell you they are “toxic.”  Wouldn’t that be outright fraud?  You bet it would, and yet not a word from our leaders about the Fed buying this junk at a rate of $40 billion a month to infinity.  JP Morgan Chase just paid nearly $300 million in fines to settle fraud charges brought by the SEC.  JP Morgan paid a $150 billion fine last year for the same thing.  Other big banks are also guilty of fraud in the mortgage arena.  Why isn’t Congress holding hearings?  Why isn’t the Justice Department handing out indictments?  Oh, we did get a deal on the “robo-signing” fiasco that let bankers off the hook for foreclosure fraud and perjury.  Thanks, Congress, for letting your campaign donors, I mean bankers, slide again.

The LIBOR (London Inter-Bank Offered Rate) rate rigging scandal is another enormous fraud on a global scale.  LIBOR sets rates for as much as $800 trillion in transactions worldwide.    More than a dozen big banks are involved in rigging this rate, and what are they getting for punishment?  Most recently, UBS was hit with a $1.5 billion fine. Why aren’t there indictments and Congressional hearings to get to the bottom of this rip-off?

How about money laundering for Mexican drug cartels and terror groups that HSBC recently admitted to doing over several years?  Where’s the outrage?  How about some criminal charges?  Why isn’t Congress pressing the Obama Administration for answers just like the “Fast and Furious” gun running scandal?  Isn’t laundering billions of dollars for drug cartels and terrorists worthy of a little attention by our government?  HSBC CEO Stuart Gulliver did admit to “stunning failures” and said, “We have said we are profoundly sorry for them, and we do so again.”  (Click here for the complete story from Reuters.)  The CEO is “profoundly sorry”?  How about profoundly guilty of crime against this country!!

Let’s go back to the so-called “Fiscal Cliff.”  Everybody in Congress knows what the real story is.  The U.S. takes in a little more than $2 trillion in taxes, and it spends a little more than $3 trillion.  The real deficit for last year alone was $7 trillion (if you count everything) according to John Williams of Shadowstats.com.  I am talking about the same accounting the government requires of business called GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles).  Fixing this mess means we will have to spend a lot less and, yes, taxes will have to go up.  This will be very painful for everybody, and I mean everybody.  The rich, the poor, the young and old will have to suffer to fix this mess.  It will take years, and we will not just “grow” our way out of this one.  We’ve been told the “growth” lie for years, and the only thing that has grown is the debt and deficit of the U.S.  If we don’t fix this mess, then that pain I’m telling you about is going to be much worse, and our very country will be at great risk.

There’s not a word about the real financial problems of the country with the “Fiscal Cliff” negotiations from either party. As Mr. Sinclair says, “This is too stupid to be stupid.”  I say, in Washington, D.C., we have bagmen, not statesmen.  For this, the country will pay dearly.

Are American's asleep?( A must Read & Send it On )

Are American’s asleep?

 

2012 is almost ready for the scrap heap of history. 2013 is just around the corner. Will America wake up or will it continue down the road to LaLa land? Will America stand up and take care of those who fight to keep it free, or will it succumb to the temptation to lavish benefits on those who just won’t take care of themselves in exchange for the votes to keep themselves in power?

If we step back and look around, anyone with a modicum of common sense would have to see things just aren’t right in the land of the free and home of the brave. The once greatest economic power in the world that defeated the communist Soviet Union in the Cold War, not by guns and bombs, but by overwhelming economic production and freedom, is now on the pathway to extinction as the world leader.

What triggered this article was an email I received over Christmas from a friend and mentor who came up with a great analogy that demonstrates the economic situation in the United States by comparing The Administration’s view of the country’s financial situation to his family budget in figures most logically thinking Americans will understand.

In April 2009 President Obama ordered the cabinet to cut $100,000,000.00 ($100 million) from the $3,500,000,000,000.00 ($3.5 trillion) federal budget over a 90-days period, as an intended signal of the president’s determination to cut spending and reform government.

I was so impressed by his sacrifice that I have decided to do the same thing with my personal budget…

I spend about $2,000 a month on groceries, household expenses, medicine, utilities, etc., but it’s time to get out the ‘ol budget cutting axe, go through my expenses, and cut back. I’m going to cut spending of my total budget at exactly the same ratio that the Federal Government is planning – 1/35,000, to show I too, can share in the suffering the rest of the nation will undergo in the process. 

After doing the math, it looks like instead of spending $2,000 a month, I’m going to have to cut that number by six cents. Yes, I’m going to have to get by with only $1999.94, but hey, that’s what sacrifice is all about. Like other Americans I’ll just have to do without some things, that are frankly, luxuries – six cents worth.

When Congress and the President talk about cutting the budget, it’s all smoke and mirrors if you understand the concept of base-line budgeting, and if we all understood the concept, we would have already gotten out a rope and found a tall tree somewhere on Capitol Hill.

“Baseline budgeting” is one of those Washington terms that sounds very dry and boring. In reality, baseline budgeting is one of the most sinister ways that politicians claim to cut spending when they are actually increasing spending. The Congressional Budget Office defines the baseline as the current budgetary policies or current services are continued without change. The baseline includes automatic adjustments for inflation and anticipated increases in program participation. Baseline budgeting (f or current services), therefore builds automatic, future spending increases into Congress’s budgetary forecasts.

Baseline budgeting tilts the budget process in favor of increased spending and taxes. For example, if an agency’s budget is projected to grow by $100 million, but only grows by $75 million, according to baseline budgeting, that agency sustained a $25 million cut. That is analogous to a person who expects to gain 100 pounds only gaining 75 pounds, and taking credit for losing 25 pounds. The federal government is the only place this absurd logic is employed.

Perhaps if the country had and education system in place that would teach how this concept is destroying the country, then maybe, just maybe, we would see some heads roll inside the Beltway.  From the mighty pulpit of the Rose Garden at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue where President Obama speaks eloquently to a subservient press corps and the mind-numb voters waiting breathlessly on every syllable; and from the mighty pulpit of the Congressional Chambers where rhetoric more often than substance, seems to flow like sewage to a city reclamation processing facility, we soak it all up faster than Sham Wow mops up a spill.

With the federal government spending at a rate of more than $4 billion/day (The federal government borrowed 46 cents of every dollar it has spent so far this fiscal year, which began Oct. 1, according to the latest data the Congressional Budget Office released Friday), the numbers are so large, people become ambivalent to the financial calamity that awaits us in the near future. Looking it at from a different prospective…That tax revenue is up by $30 billion compared with last year, or about 10 percent, but spending is up even more — a staggering $87 billion, or 14 percent.

“A billion here, a billion there, pretty soon it adds up to real money.” — the late Senator Everett M. Dirksen

America is broken. Don’t believe me? Look at the facts and then you decide:

We just had an election where in we re-elected 85% of the Congressional and Senate representatives. The figures would have been if more astonishing had it not been for re-districting. The estimated number who would have been re-elected was thought to be closer to 90%, according to Bloomberg.  Imagine how unlikely these numbers are when Congress has only an 18% approval rating according to Gallup. We have certainly crossed the gap into the land of insanity, but then again, who would have thought the majority of the people would have voted for four more year of economic pain and 20+ million people out of work?

According a report from State Budget Solutions, the state of California is teetering on the edge of bankruptcy staring at $617 billion dollars in debt. The state’s debt burden comes out to roughly $16,400 per California resident. Most of the outstanding debt is related to unfunded pension liabilities. The report also looked at the fiscal year 2013 budget gap, unemployment trust fund loans and unfunded retiree health benefits. As an example of the waste the taxpayers of California have endured with no end in sight, is…

California Highway Patrol division chief Jeff Talbott retired last year as the best-paid officer in the 12 most-populous U.S. states, collecting $483,581 in salary, pension and other compensation. Talbott, age 53, received $280,259 for accrued leave and vacation time and took a new job running the public-safety department at a private university in Southern California. He also began collecting an annual pension of $174,888 from the state.

Union-negotiated benefits, coupled with overtime that can exceed regular pay and lax enforcement of limits on accumulating unused vacation, allow some troopers to double their annual earnings and retire as young as age 50. The payments they get are unmatched by those elsewhere, according to data compiled by Bloomberg on 1.4 million employees of the 12 states. Some, like Talbott, go on to second careers.

The chaos doesn’t just end with public-sector, union-negotiated wage and benefit packages our legislators so easily agree to currying favor with and securing the vote of Big Labor, we also see a never-ending cycle of waste and lack of oversight. According to the San Diego Union Times: More than 200 state employees were overpaid more than $500,000 by managers who deliberately broke state rules at the troubled California Department of Parks and Recreation, according to a report by the state controller.

The report is the latest blow to a department where employees were found last summer to have kept $54 million hidden in two special funds for more than a decade, even as dozens of parks faced closure. Results from additional investigations by the Department of Finance and state attorney general are expected in coming weeks.

The controller’s office found that managers broke rules and regulations to pay 203 employees about $520,000 in extra pay over three years. Several dozen other employees were also overpaid more than $63,000 because they worked more hours or in higher-paying positions than allowed.

Speaking of taxpayer money and a federal Santa Claus government waiting breathlessly to give taxpayer money away to countries, many of which do not like the US and in fact vote against us at every opportunity in the forum of the United Nations:

…And talking about the United Nations, the U.S. is assessed 22 percent of the regular budget, which is nearly $567 million in gross contributions for 2012. The U.S. is assessed more than 180 other U.N. member states combined and 22,000 times more than the least assessed countries. Together, the top 15 contributors pay over 81.4 percent of the U.N. regular budget. Moreover, under U.N. rules, the 129 member states that contribute less than 1.3 percent can pass the budget over the objections of the countries paying over 98 percent…INSANITY!

This explains why so many member states are blasé about increases in the U.N. budget: The financial impact on them is miniscule and undermines incentives for them to fulfill their oversight role. This divorce of financial responsibilities from voting privileges is perhaps the greatest cause of the decades-long intransigence on U.N. reform.

So, not only is the United Nation a toothless bureaucracy steeped in unbelievable ineptness, but corrupt on top of that. Through your taxpayer money and our financial support of the UN we are the CHIEF ENABLERS.  Though not an isolated case of the UN in action, most of us will recall the Oil-for-Food Scandal that undermined the so-called diplomatic pressure designed to force Iran out of Kuwait after Saddam had invaded the almost helpless oil producing country.

From the Canada Free Press, recent years have brought a cascade of scandals at the United Nations, wherein the Oil-for-Food Scandal has been only the most visible. We still do not know the full extent of these debacles–the more sensational ones include:

  • The disappearance of UN funds earmarked for tsunami relief in Indonesia.
  • The exposure of a transnational network of pedophiliac rape by UN peacekeepers in Africa–and we may never know. What we do know is that an assortment of noble-sounding efforts has disolved into enterprises marked chiefly by abuse, self-dealing, and worse.
  • The free world is grappling with threats from the spread of radical Islam to North Korea’s nuclear blackmail and Iran’s pursuit of nuclear bombs. The UN, despite its trophy case of Nobel prizes, has failed so far to curb any of these, just as it failed abysmally to run an honest or effective sanctions program in Saddam Hussein’s Iraq. Currently it is gridlocked over matters as seemingly straightforward as cleaning up its own management department.

To pour salt into an open wound, the city of New York Department of Finance said UN diplomats had unpaid tickets totaled $16.7 million through the end of July 2011. Egypt topped the list with $1.9 million in tickets, followed by Nigeria with about $1 million and Indonesia with about $725,000.

We continue to re-elect those who have made all this possible. You know who they are…the politicians we send to Washington who are surrounded by hangers-on with their make-work jobs and mini-bureaucratic fiefdoms.

I know some will argue that point, but have you noticed that whenever a major weather storm is about to hit Washington DC, the government issues bulletins telling “only essential personnel are required to report for work”. Say what? “Only essential personnel are required to report to work”. That means all the rest…about 90% ARE NOT ESSENTIAL! Why in the heck are they even on the taxpayer’s payroll, sucking up paychecks larger than the private sector and building credit for a comfortable retirement and benefits while the rest of us get the a broken Social Security System, Veteran pension, and Medicare?

Still think things are all peaches and cream with our leaders… How about the President, First Lady and family welcoming Park Jae-Sang, better known as Psy, with all the pageantry and accolades reserved for heads of state? Most Americans are not aware of the fact that they are creating another “air-headed bimbo” with the laud and praise they have bestowed upon gangster rappers, musicians, self-centered Hollywood idols (Lindsay Lohan, Paris Hilton, et al), and others, not worthy of a second thought.

In 2002 and again in 2004, Park Jae-Sang cut a track, which was a collaboration between himself and Korean rock group N.E.X.T, that was called ‘Dear American’, and included lyrics such as “Kill those f***ing Yankees who ordered them to torture… Kill their daughters, mothers, daughters-in-law and fathers… Kill them all slowly and painfully.” Knowing that he was going to be lavished additional praise by an out-of-touch White House, Psy apologized for the slam-dunk of all Americans, most notably our military, knowing that it was inappropriate and totally uncalled for regardless of the excuses he made.

It was the same military that suffered 128,650 killed and wounded fighting to end North Korean aggression in the Korean War that today enables him to bask in the lap of luxury complete with a US education at Boston University and Berklee College of Music. He could have well ended up as a citizen of North Korea under the thumb of Kim Jong-il, had he even been allowed to live.

We have a White House at war with the private sector. They call it “taxing the rich” and chant slogans suggesting they “are not paying their fair share”, when nearly 50% of the population isn’t paying anything…as if forking over about 50% of what they earn in accumulated income is not a fair share! In reality the lexicon of words means we are to punish success, achievement, and hard work. The thought is that it was government which made America what it is and not the other way around.

The President can’t wait to rub shoulders with the rich and famous elite of the entertainment crowd and the Wall Street insiders so long as they continue to dole out money for liberal politicians and causes. He strolls around the best golf courses spending taxpayer money almost as fast as Benanke can print it, more so than any other President in history. The first family lives at taxpayer expense on a budget that would make Harry Truman, the 33rd president, blush. I guess old Harry was right when he said “My choice early in life was either to be a piano-player in a whorehouse or a politician. And to tell the truth, there’s hardly any difference.”

The worse part about the Hollywood types who cheer on the President for higher taxes are hypocrites beyond belief. Those who work really hard and earn their money, invested everything in a business or idea and create jobs for others, are now told they didn’t have anything to do with it. They are demonized and the stupid voters actually bought into this line of garbage.  At the bottom of the 1040′s, those wanting more taxation could select the box which allows all taxpayers to pay additional tax money if they so choose. If they feel so strongly about giving the government more money to waste, why don’t they fire their accountants, and either file the EZ1040 short form or write out a check for more than they owe?

Cities are now going bankrupt and states are following close behind. Instead of addressing the problem, cities like Detroit are demanding the federal government bail them out…that means you in Florida, me in North Carolina, and folks living all over the country may be asked to cough up more of our money to reward the bureaucratic pimps to suck even more money out of our budgets that have declined by $4000 the past four years. US families have seen a loss of family wealth by an average of nearly $40,000 since 2008, and come January 2013 it will probably get even worse when Tax Armageddon arrives.

I’ll close with alittle tearful humor that is probably more truth than most will admit…

5000 years ago Moses said, “Pack up your camel, pick up your shovel, mount your ass, and I will lead you to the Promised Land.”

5000 years later, F. D. Roosevelt said, “Lay down your shovel, sit on your ass and light up a camel, this is the promised land.”

Today, the president “will tax your shovel, sell your camel, kick your ass, and tell you that the promised land is somewhere else.”

Note to Gun-Control Liberals: You Can't Handle the Truth

Note to Gun-Control Liberals:  You Can’t  Handle the Truth     

Written on        Tuesday, December 25, 2012         by        David L. Goetsch

guncontrol

 

As they typically do following high-profile shooting incidents, liberals are  taking advantage of the Sandy Hook tragedy and the Jovan Belcher/Kasandra  Perkins murder-suicide to turn up the volume in the debate over one of their  favorite issues: gun control.  To liberals, the solution to every problem  is the same: pass another law and increase the size of government.  But  liberal solutions do not work and never will work because they ignore some  obvious truths. For example, here is a truth that liberals admit but like to  ignore: The government spends billions on its so-called “war on drugs,” but to  no avail.  Drug use is higher than it has ever been. Immigration laws do  little to deter illegal immigration.  They just create jobs for criminals  who specialize in circumventing the laws. Prohibition did not stop the sale and  consumption of alcohol.  It just created a black market for liquor, a  market that flourished.  New gun-control laws will be equally ineffective,  and liberals know it.

Why are liberals so determined to avoid dealing with the hard truths about  gun violence in America? It’s because they can’t handle the truth. The first and  most important truth that must be faced about gun-violence in America is that  liberals who are so vocal about passing gun-control laws are hypocrites—they are  not interested in reducing gun violence in the first place.  They are  simply pandering to naïve Americans and those poor grieving families of shooting  victims to make it appear that they care and are doing something.

Commenting on the gun-control debate, my business partner and friend, Sean  Aland, likes to say: “In America, we have a heart problem, not a gun problem.” Another way to say the same thing is this: Push God aside and you will have  Godlessness.  Consequently, for liberal pundits and politicians to wring  their hands and wonder aloud what is happening to America is nothing but  theater.  What is happening to America is that we are reaping the harvest  of what liberals have been sowing for more than 40 years, a truth liberals can’t  handle.

Another truth liberals can’t handle is that moral relativism is at the heart  of America’s moral demise and, in turn, gun violence. Liberals have sold America  on the lie that there are no absolutes, that right and wrong are relative  concepts.  According to liberals, what is right for you may not be right  for someone else.  Here is the hard truth about moral relativism that  liberals do not want to discuss:  If liberals are correct that there are no  absolutes and we can all determine what is right, why should anyone be surprised  when a young man chooses to act out his hostility toward the world using an  automatic weapon. Moral relativism is the cause of the breakdown in American  society that led to Sandy Hook and other incidents of gun violence.  This  is the truth, but liberals can’t handle the truth.

Protecting Roe v. Wade is the holy grail of liberalism.  Consequently,  while they weep—as they should—for the innocent children who were brutally  murdered at Sandy Hook, liberals shed not a tear for the thousands who are  murdered in the womb every year under the guise of “choice.”  The only  difference between the children who were slaughtered at Sandy Hook and those  slaughtered in abortion clinics every year is their age. A society cannot choose  to kill unborn babies for the sake of convenience and expect that this heinous  practice will not coarsen the attitudes of people toward human life.  This  is the truth, but liberals can’t handle the truth.

Gun-control liberals support Hollywood, and Hollywood supports  liberals.  Yet every year Hollywood turns out another crop of disgusting  movies that portray gratuitous violence, rape, and hedonism as not just normal  but heroic.  This is also true of computer games—Adam Lanza’s favorite  pastime—and television, yet the filth and violence in movies, computer games,  and television comports perfectly with the moral relativism of liberals.   Liberals in Hollywood regularly turn out some of the most violent movies  imaginable while hypocritically decrying the violence we observe daily in  America. Even a fool would know that young people cannot grow up on a steady  diet of gratuitous violence and not be affected by it.  This is the truth,  but liberals can’t handle the truth.  One final truth liberals can’t handle  is this: it’s not what’s in a man’s hand that makes him a killer it’s what’s in  his heart—or better yet, what’s not in his heart.

If You Are On This List You May Be In Grave Danger

If You Are On This List You May Be In Grave Danger

Also sent in by chris

SHTF Plan – by Mac Slavo

Over the weekend a mainstream media web site on the east coast published, presumably in the interest of public safety, a complete list of individuals and businesses that are licensed to carry or own handguns.

Much to the amusement of those who would confiscate firearms from law abiding citizens, the list, complete with an interactive map, essentially allows those who are preparing to commit such crimes as burglary, robbery or worse to locate specific addresses where residents are armed. The problem, of course, is that in their haste to publicly out and embarrass legal gun owners, The Journal News actually did exactly the opposite of the intended purpose of their exclusive breaking report.

You see, now when a criminal gang decides to target a particular home they can utilize the new map to zoom in on specific homes in a neighborhood to determine if they will be faced with any sort of danger should they choose to attack a particular target.

Put yourself into the criminal mind and consider what you might do should you be compelled to rob a home or business at gunpoint. With that new map available to you, would you be headed to the residence where there is a strong likelihood that someone is armed, or would you skip over that particular house and head to where you know there would be little, if any, resistance?

It’s the epitome of irony.

When gun-grabbers and their ilk laugh about the new interactive map publicly exposing lawful gun owners, what they have actually done is outed those citizens who have no means of defending themselves.

It’s pretty safe to say that if one were to have a sign placed in front of their home, Americans would overwhelmingly prefer to have this one:

As opposed to being the neighbor in this photo:

In the near future criminals are going to realize the internet is a powerful tool for determining the feasibility of striking certain targets. It’s only a matter of time beforeflash mobs begin to organize, not against gas stations or pharmacies, but private citizens and residences. Should such a thing happen, and fifty people kick in your door and intend to have their way with your family and property, those millions of assault rifles that have been flying off the shelves around the country are going to come in real handy.

While we cherish our privacy and agree that the outing of gun owners has gone beyond responsible journalism, if their is going to be a list, we’d rather be on the one that has our residence listed as heavily armed as opposed to the alternative.

You may be one of those proud non-gun owners who didn’t make the east coast list.

And if you are, you should be terrified, because you may very well be in grave danger.
