Theft by any other name.

Inflation is the most insidious tax of all. We don't get to vote on it, we don't get a bill for it. It just eats our money relentlessly. And, you may ask, what causes this beast? Purely and simply, the printing (nowadays the electronic creation of) of fiat currency. It is not interest rates or some evil dude in China. It is the Federal Reserve making money up out of nothing and dumping it into our economy. The politicians in Washington love it because they get to spend this money without a peep from we the sheeple.

And how bad is this situation? Take a look at the following:


In 1968, an existing single family median home price in the south was $19,000.00. Ten percent down was $1,900.00. This took 1188 hours of work at a minimum wage of $1.60 per hour to pay for.

In 2008, the median home price was $169,000.00, 10% down was 16,909.00. This took 2582 hours of work at a minimum wage of $6.55 per hour to cover.

This from the US Government and the National Association of Realtors. I can email the entire table if any of you would like to see it.

Not only is your dollar worth less, the hour of your labor is worth less. You are being devalued by a conspiracy between the criminal bankers and the criminals in Washington, DC. You are being systematically robbed of your very labor, initiative, your sweat and the very hours of existence to finance a cabal of thieves.

I strongly recommend the reading of "The Creature From Jeckyl Island" by G. Edward Griffin. It will make you rather angry.

Are we surprised? We shouldn't be.

Rep. Hilda L. Solis
President-elect Barack Obama's choice to head the Labor Department has close ties to U.S. communist and socialist organizations and has sent representatives to functions organized by national parties for both ideologies.
The pick of Rep. Hilda L. Solis, D-Calif., a Congressional Hispanic Caucus leader considered to be one of the most reliably pro-union voices in the House, was hailed as a victory by communist and socialist leaders." This from Worldnet Daily

Our new leader (albeit not Constitutionally qualified), has picked a crooks peck of cabinet members. Hilda, here, is representative of the mood in Washington. That being the quick move to complete communism. It is not a Democratic thing. It is bipartisan indeed. Remember, it was our "comapssionate conservative" Bush, that gave us the communist bailouts of the auto makers and the uber rich banksters.

The spectres of a failing economy and a failing environment are being used to make us believe the idots in Washington are going to have to save us. I am not using hyperbole, here.

The economic situation is being peddled as the failure of free market capitalism. Such could not be further from the truth. The failure is of the Federal Reserve (not federal and not a reserve) and the attempts of politicians and other criminal scum in systematically picking the pockets of the productive through the many-headed hydra of inflation, taxation and outright theft.

The environmental movement is purely a method of getting the populace to give up its liberties. We are to be frightened into believing our lifestyles have destroyed the very environment upon which we depend on for survival. Once we have bought that story, it is but a short trip to a totalitarian sociaty in which a select few can direct our economy and our lives. For our own good of course.

It will fail. The so-called "Smart People" are but a bunch of socialist bureaucrats that believe meetings and studies actually accomplish something. None of them know when to plan wheat or tomatoes. None know how or when to butcher a hog. In fact, we are entrusting our lives and our futures to a bunch of clueless politicians.

And keep in mind, no communist, fascist, socialist or national socialist economy has ever survived without massive inflows of cash from capitalist countries. Once we are down the tubes, where will be get our cash? Hmmm? Where will we go t oget medical care? Canadians can come here now. When we have destroyed our successful capitalist system that spins off enough money to have a medical industry, where will they go? Oh, for that matter, where in hell will we go?

You must be resposible for you. There are no "good" people in the nation's capital that are doing anyting out of the goodness of their hearts. It ain't human nature, folks. If "we the people" grant our authorities granted under the Constitution, we will also grant the benefits. We will be slaves to the powers that be. And that will kill many of us. Our very civilization will perish.

As I have said before, "If government is the answer, it is a stupid question."

Glow-BULL Warming

I thought that, in light of our nationwide wintry blast, I would bring a bit of a scientific nature concerning carbon dioxide and plant growth. Keep in mind that before the onset of the much villified industrial age, the CO2 levels had gotten down to 278 ppm.

>CARBON DIOXIDE (CO2)IMPROVES PLANT GROWTH AND QUALITYResearch has shown that in most cases rate of plant growth under otherwise identical growing conditions is directly related to carbon dioxide concentration.
The amount of carbon dioxide a plant requires to grow may vary from plant to plant, but tests show that most plants will stop growing when the CO2 level decreases below 150 ppm. Even at 220 ppm, a slow-down in plant growth is significantly noticeable.
Colorado State University conducted tests with carnations and other flowers in controlled CO2 atmospheres ranging from 200 to 550 ppm. The higher CO2 concentrations significantly increased the rate of formation of dry plant matter, total flower yield and market value." (This from the Home Harvest Garden Supply Website)

It would seem that the evil capitalists might have preserved life as we know it by releasing many millions of tons of the horrid pollutant CO2!
Keep in mind, ALL of the carbohydrates you eat, and all of the carbon in the proteins you eat, and all of the carbon in the fatty acid you eat, come from atmospheric CO2.
Folks, global warming and climate change are simply devices being used to scare you into compliance. The climate has and will always change. That is the only constant in climate, change.
Increasing CO2 and temperature on our little planet will result in much higher plant growth rates and much more land in the temperate zones. In other words, global warming would be a good thing for humanity. The only real problem with this rosy idea, is, dagnab it, our warming period seems to be over for a while. Remember, it ws the Little Ice Age that wiped out the Vikings and plunged Europe into the dismal Dark Ages (with a little help from the Church!)
Learn the facts before you drink anybody's Koolaid. And, try to stay warm!

And above all remember, "If government is the answer, it is a stupid question.
