Nelson is a man whose ideas are worth a listen. Most of us know there is little difference between the Republocrats. So lets get on with it and find a way to throw the bums out. The very survival of the country is at stake. The US is currently 125 Trillion dollars in debt when counting the off budget items and the wars. It is such a vast amount that it cannot be inflated away, cannot be taxed away, and will never be repaid. I personally believe that Antal’s Fekete’s idea of a debt jubilee wherein all debts are forgiven is the only sane course of action. Then the system needs to be reformed and Americans have to get off their sorry asses and become involved instead of just complaining. Am I allowed to say that? Well, I just did.  (Editor)

The Charlie Brown Conservatives

In the famous Charles Schulz comic strip, Peanuts, Charlie Brown is enticed every year by Lucy to placekick a football that she volunteers to hold for him. Charlie runs down the field toward his beguiling friend, who is holding the football on the ground, and swings his leg in a huge arching kick. But at the last moment Lucy jerks the football away and Charlie flies through the air to land on his back with a loud thump and the scream of “Aaugh!” Every year, Lucy convinces Charlie to try another kick, promising not to pull the football away like she did last time. And every year, Charlie runs down the field and Lucy jerks the football away at the last moment with Charlie falling on his famous fanny.

Why does Charlie continue to fall for Lucy’s con? Because Charlie is a good-natured chap, but gullible about human nature. This priceless scene, which played out every year from the 1950s to 2000 in newspapers all over the world, is metaphor for that exasperating trait of large amounts of humans to fall for the beguiling promises of their fellowmen who seek something from them. Much of history is made — from the daily mundane events of our personal lives to the grand, epochal affairs of nations — because of this naïve trust that so many humans have in the professed benevolence of persuasive fellow humans who wish to enlist their support for a cause, a vote, a job, a war, a venture, a romance, etc. The world is full of guile because it is full of fools.
Thus life for us as individuals and societies keeps running off the road into messy ditches of disaster. read more

I don’t know how everybody else feels about it, but to me I think Hispanic people in this country, whether legally or illegally, made a huge public relations mistake with their recent demonstrations. I don’t blame anybody in the world for wanting to come to the United States of America as it is a truly wonderful place. But when the first thing you do when you set foot on American soil is illegal, it is flat out wrong, and I don’t care how many “lala land” left-heads come out of the woodwork and start trying to give me sensitivity lessons. I don’t need sensitivity lessons; in fact I don’t have anything against Mexicans!  I just have something against criminals and anybody who comes into this country illegally is a criminal. And if you don’t believe it, try coming into America from a foreign country without a passport and see how far you get. What disturbs me about the demonstrations is that it’s tantamount to saying, “I am going to come into your country even if it means breaking your laws and there’s nothing you can do about it.” read more

This is what is coming our way. We are living during a point in history that is going to set us back 100 years and we all have to pray–no, we have to act so that these idiots will not start a WAR. We are past the tipping point–we are lost so it is every man for himself but that does not preclude trying to work together to save the pieces. Banks and government have stolen everything with the help of the courts.

The first step in solving a problem is to identify it. These articles help us to do that.

Then we need to find a way to get people to stand together even as they fight their own issues. Ben Franklin said–and I paraphrase, “we hang together, or we’ll hang alone”.

The middle class is being wiped out and what the political workers, including the court system, do not understand is that their pension plans have been ripped along with all the others. Banks are quite non-select.

Judges will be retiring on nothing, but so will teachers, clerks, and janitors. Calipers is broke. Californians have no money. Where will the tax dollars come from with 25% of the State unemployed and another 10% of the people not even understanding the English language. How many gardeners do we need? Couldn’t college kids do those same jobs? Actually, many of them would welcome the work because they are now facing the cold harsh reality of having no money for pizza or the latest video games. read more

DOLLAR RALLY IS HUGELY BULLISH FOR PRECIOUS METALS

Stewart DoughertyFor many years, the common viewpoint has been that an inverse price relationship between the United States Dollar and gold constitutes the First Monetary Commandment, and that this Commandment is chiseled into a stone tablet before which markets must genuflect. This false and misleading “Dollar up, gold down” religion has been proselytized at enormous, covert, public expense by the best market manipulations the high priests of Dirty Money have ever been able to buy. This has been done to deceive and delude the people about the true nature of honest money, and its devious, diabolical and immoral impostors. Now, every single corrupt market fallacy is about to be blown to smithereens as the global sovereign debt crisis performs an ages-old form of creative destruction: fiat currency annihilation. The First Monetary Commandment is already being smashed upon the rocks of common sense, and is about to become a costly heresy for those who cannot face the new and radically different monetary paradigm that the future is speeding back through time to bring us, as a deliverance. read more
