Every problem has in it the seeds of its own solution.
If you don't have any problems, you don't get any seeds.

The Illusion of Democracy and Freedom and the steps you can take to restore your personal liberty.
Call me jaded and
disillusioned but I no longer believe the propaganda which flows out of
Washington. I stopped drinking their
Kool-Aid more than 30 years ago. Our
two-party system leaves voters with little or no choice.
Career
politicians have scuttled our economy and freedoms, it doesn’t matter which
party they pretend to belong to. I
laugh when I hear people say they voted along ‘party lines’ as there is no
difference between the two. With the
exception of local elections, your vote does not matter.
There
has been a clash between those who uphold and support our Constitution and
those who would rather see the un-making of America with the great destroyer
(President Obama) leading the charge to our self destruction.
The
business of the people has long ago been put on hold while the Washington-Wall
Street Cartel milks the middle class and the taxpayer for profit and special
deals. Those in the military know what I
am talking about. It’s always about the
money. Suppliers of military goods have
long scammed the taxpayer with $200 hammers and $400 toilet seats.
When
our rounds of endless wars finally wind down and profits erode, they’ve turned
to new sources of income selling gutless government goons technology used to
spy on innocent Americans. Of course,
citizens are forced to foot the bill for our demise.
This
is all under the guise of living in a democratic society. In reality, your vote does not matter as the
parties will screw us no matter. The White House and Congress do what they want
without regard to public opinion (Obamacare, NSA’s illegal domestic
spying, our seeming inability to secure
the border from illegals, etc.)
The
public trough has always been just a watering hole for most career politicians
(I love the BS phrase ‘Senator Dildo served the public for 20, 30, 40, 50
years.’ All that means is they’ve breast
fed at the fountain of the public teat and got better benefits, pay and perks
than the people they supposedly serve-politics was never meant to be a
lifelong job. Our founders served
without a paycheck, so if modern day politicians want to ‘serve’ let them do so
free of salary after the first term).
Regardless
of which thieving party has been in office, your rights have been scuttled and
your country has gone from being the most prosperous to being the most indebted
and the vanishing Middle Class has always paid the tab.

Report: American Wages Down
23 Percent Since 2008 »
A new report from the U.S. Conference of Mayors delivers a sobering, if unsurprising, statistic about America’s economic recovery since the recession of the late 2000s: Present-day wages in the U.S. are down 23 percent from their 2008 levels, resulting in $93 billion in lost pay for American workers.

The American economy is living on borrowed time through
the infusion of massive amounts of “printed
out of thin air” cash being printed by the Federal
Reserve. Anyone with an IQ above room temperature knows that the inevitable
economic crash is looming on the horizon. The deficit is $17 trillion
dollars and that is the good news.
The unfunded
liabilities debt (e.g. Social Security,
Medicare, etc.) is estimated to be $240 trillion
dollars. Finally, the derivatives
debt, which the average citizen has been saddled with paying
off through the nonsensical bailouts, is now estimated to $1.5
quadrillion dollars. With the most optimistic estimates that the world’s GDP is
less that $100 trillion dollars, it does not take a rocket scientist to figure
out that the ability to pay off the debt through taxation and the endless
bailouts is simply not possible.
Perhaps all of us should run a legal
notice in our local newspaper announcing as of this date, I am no longer
legally liable for any debt incurred by our federal government!
America
has lost roughly 10% or more of its middle class just since 2008. Inflation since 2005 has robbed us of 40% of
our spending power and most citizens haven’t enjoyed a real raise since the
1970s when the true rate of inflation is figured in. What remains of the middle class is primarily
comprised of government workers – teachers and school administration, law
enforcement and fire departments, bureaucrats and those who benefit from their
salaries – lawyers and medical personnel.
The
mania for giving the Government power to meddle with the private affairs of
cities or citizens is likely to cause endless trouble…Mark Twain
The
assault on the middle class began in the mid-1980s when General Electric led
the charge to off-shore US jobs; dozens of other corporations promptly
followed, leaving the American worker behind.
Young people born into our heavily statist (fear-based) world don't like it one bit - especially the hundreds of thousands of dollars of debt they are born into and the minimum wage job market they see as their only career course [unless they work for the government]. Their collective disillusionment with the status-quo is beginning to filter into mainstream discourse.
Just one of the up-and-comers is anarchist, Julia Tourianski (see her Anarchast interview here). She was on Fox News twice last week alone and there are countless others like her. In production right now are numerous fully anarchist movies (I will be interviewing the producers of two of them in the next week on Anarchast), books and videos that will further hasten anarchy into our lives.
Julia's video, "The Shift - The State of Our Minds and The Mind of the State" perfectly explains the shift that is taking place.
A
primary cause of implosion in a nation is the decline or absence of trust
and confidence by its people in the leaders and its currency. Inflation is robbing the middle class
daily and there has never been such a decline of trust and confidence in
Congress and the White House.
