Big Daddy government
coming to your town, unless...
The mid-term election season will be getting into full swing soon,
and you will be inundated by media reports, poll results and
"insider" opinions about who will "win" and who will
"lose."
Conventional wisdom holds that in a democracy, people have control
of the government with and through their vote and elections. But the esoteric
truth is that all modern governments control the people. The people do not
control the government. That is why it is more accurate to call it a
"selection" rather an election.
Many thought that in the last election they elected some
"new" leaders who were going to show the way. They thought elections
meant something, but now they're waking to the realization that elections mean
nothing.
We've reached a point where I don't feel that voting does any good
in national politics. Remember that it's important to the actors in, and plans
of, the Deep State that you vote. That alone should give you pause.
Washington is broken. Elected elites — even many of those recently
elected — quickly see a way to enrich themselves and their corporatist sugar
daddies and the cycle continues. Electing a bunch of new people running under a
new banner just leads to a dashing of hope that makes a big splash but is as
futile as a single wave against the sea wall of graft and corruption.
Benjamin Franklin warned
against it in Emblematical
Representations in 1774. He wrote: "The ordaining of laws
in favor of one part of the nation, to the prejudice and oppression of another,
is certainly the most erroneous and mistaken policy. An equal dispensation of
protection, rights, privileges, and advantages, is what every part is entitled
to, and ought to enjoy."
Watch for much theater out of Washington in the next few months.
Elected elites will posture and preen. The press will wail and gnash its teeth…
and the money printers will continue to churn and dollars will continue to fly
out the door.
Meanwhile, when State lawmakers do make the hard choices, those
who long sucked off the government teat — led by the thugs directing the
government employee unions and egged on by the press — will march on their
capitals demanding that its government rape the taxpayers one more time to
ensure their cushy arrangement.
Hyperinflation is almost here. Banksters always want a little
inflation and think they can control it once it's started. But just as they are
wrong about everything else — from missing the indicators of a coming housing
collapse to missing the coming recession to the effects of "stimulus"
— they will be wrong again.
Americans have been pushed to the brink. To quote trends
forecaster Gerald Celente, "When the people lose everything, they have
nothing left to lose, and they lose it." Once the line is finally crossed,
a citizenry fed up with a pandering, do-nothing, wasteful government will rise
up and throw it out. When that happens, the unrest in Taiwan and Ukraine will
pale in comparison.
Solution begins at home
The quicker we come to terms with reality about politics in
America, the closer we come to serious action to restore freedom of the
individual. The government and its politicians are at war with us in order to
protect their interests, which are 180 degrees out of phase with ours.
Incumbents get re-elected to the tune of better than 90 percent, a
number which hardly jibes with the low teens approval rating Congress enjoys at
the moment. Eighty-nine out of 100 recognize what these people are. But only
one in 10 of them is going to be looking for work come November.
But the American system was not one set up for royalty or professional
politicians. The Founders would be horrified at the notion that one must be an
"experienced" politician in order to be deemed qualified for office,
or that anyone would be continually voted back into office for what amounts to
a lifetime position.
I am not telling you not to vote. Focus on local politics where
you can have some influence and elect liberty-loving individualists. If you
feel there is a candidate in your area that you want to support, then you
should indeed vote. Libertarian and conservative voters should concentrate on
finding candidates for state and local elections who will uphold the
Constitution and are willing to take a bold stand for state's rights and
against federal tyranny.
When this new crop of politicians rises to take on the federal
leviathan make sure they will push for term limits and the repeal of the 16th
and 17th Amendments which would end the unconstitutional income tax system and
necessarily end the Federal Reserve, and restore selection of senators to the
states where the Founders intended (no, elected office isn't a job, and
"experience" and "qualifications" don't enter into the
equation. These weren't meant to be long-term positions).
We can't oppose the statists and socialists by choosing from among
them. If you vote, choose wisely.
Yours for the truth,

USEFUL AND NOTED
Thousands of 'Ballot
Mules' Delivered Tens of Thousands of Votes for Biden
After previewing the
documentary “2,000 Mules,” New York Post columnist Miranda Devine wrote that
“pesky evidence is starting to emerge of systematic schemes to subvert the
electoral process — which must not be allowed to happen again if we are to
restore faith in elections.”
Devine called the movie — which
debuts next month — “the most compelling evidence to date” concerning the race between then-President Donald Trump and Democrat Joe
Biden and said research conducted by the election integrity group True the Vote
reveals what appears to be “suspicious ballot harvesting.”
Democrats’ Culture War Is Destroying Their Ability To Govern Competently Enough To Fool Voters
If you're interested in preparedness, flea markets and thrift
stores can be goldmines. Every day, people clean out their garages or attics
and give away things they don't want, completely unaware that many of the items
they donate are valuable to preppers.
These items end up in secondhand stores and can often be
purchased for a fraction of what they would cost new. You just have to be
patient and search.
Here you'll find a list of items you should look for, especially
if you're a prepper on a budget...
