Is It Too Late To Save America… Or Were We Doomed From The Very Beginning?

It appears too late for me and my family to go back to what I work towards for over 30 years. Its virtually all gone now. In response to a direct question about what I do for a living, after discussing with the author about his post here, I sent this reply in an email:

You asked what I do for a living. After preparing myself for and then chasing the American Dream (TM) since I was 13 (that is how long I worked), I lost my career as a high tech systems integrator in automation and robotics. I worked my way thru college, paid all my student loans, then went from one industry to the next as each was off-shored (textiles, pc boards, heavy machining, furniture, boating, automotive, etc) reinventing and reinvesting in myself (to date, I have spent over $100K in education and hold three college degrees and multiple extra training courses in a variety of curriculum related to automated manufacturing and robotics). I realized early on that Ross Perot was correct and lived the sucking sound trying my best to stay ahead of the game and find an industry that would stay.

I eventually created my own business in 2003 that catered to virtually any type of automation and human assist in production. I advised customers of how to automate certain processes, designed systems to do it, then sold the system to the customer. This lasted until 2009, where I had to file bankruptcy due to credit cards which were used to pay extreme medical expenses (our BCBS premium at the time was over $1200/month) and with several surgeries that my wife had to have for her scoliosis (which is worse now than ever before).

In 2009, a systems integrator hired me to work for them, basically selling their automation systems. Almost one year later, they assembled the three salesmen and project managers and laid us all off, while holding us to the non-compete. It took over a year in court for me to get paid the money and commissions I brought them in less than a year.

Most of the competition has closed their doors, as well, and there are none hiring me. I have a proven track record and have made myself and others a great deal of money.

The problem is being self-employed, taxes and insurance will break you. One small health issue and it is a down hill slide from that point on. Then, as 2008′s crash hit us, everything began to fall apart and from every indication, it won’t be coming back any time soon.

I realized long ago that the old two party meme was a sham and that the corporations have indeed taken over politicians.

Socialism would be a dream compared to what we are experiencing, which is Fascism 101.

Sorry this is so long, but thanks for your inquiry. Maybe this can help explain why I am so pissed off.

I have never been lazy. I have always worked my butt off, pursuing the American Dream Lie. But now, I am doing what I can to make ends meet and feed my family. I believe that Fascism has already hit America. It may very well be too late to stop it, but what if we could?

Some ( like Charlie McGrath below) will say that it is all over and that the hammer falls soon just like it is already falling in Greece (I tend to agree with this sentiment):

If you still believe that the economy is turning around and getting better, read this and check yourself.

So, is there something anything that we, as American citizens can do? Would it make any difference if we do what I suggest and NEVER VOTE FOR AN R OR D AGAIN? What if we actually vetted politicians in the way Kenny suggests by asking all the right questions:

Are you going to call for an end to the illegal wars and to bring all of our troops home now?

Gonna take any money from AIPAC? Take a trip to Israel? Got the courage to stand up to the Israeli lobby? Wanna fight another war for Israel? Got a kid of your own to sacrifice for the cause? Have an opinion on the phrase “We’re all Palestinians now?”

Iran? Syria? Please don’t give me the same old lines.

What about the Federal Reserve and Wall Street? Trillions stolen? The usury scam? Debt slavery? You’re either with us or against us .It really is the 0.001% vs all the rest.

War on Drugs? Medical marijuana and full legalization? Afghan heroin, CIA smuggling, cartel enabling, big bank drug money laundering?

GMO’s, vaccines, FDA corruption, aspartame, fluoride water, factory farms, food freedom? The crimes of Monsanto and their ilk?

War on Terror, TSA, FBI setups, Homeland Security, Patriot Act, NDAA, NSA, internet censorshp, etc. etc. etc.?

The UN, globalism, neocons, neolibs, sociopaths, psychopaths, social engineering, mind control, nefarious agendas, world banks, world government, world order?

Media lies, media whores, media crimes?

Blackmail of and bribes to politicians for control? How would you handle threats against you and yours for not going along with the big money flow?

Heck, the bill of rights? Seems like every one of them is under assault. Got a problem with rational, logical, common sense interpretations of our basic freedoms?

There’s this little litmus test that I must always bring up.  9/11.  It’s a make or break vote here Park. Step up … OK? Look into false flags if you haven’t. There’s a lot to learn.

I would say that if they fail any of the litmus test, they should receive ZERO votes. On the other hand, is there enough thinking people around to understand these pertinent questions?

Webster Tarpley also lays out a plan to help correct what has happened. You can listen to the interview for a run down at “To Cut Gas Price in Half Now, Ban Commodity Index Swaps and Synthetic Exchange-Traded Funds as Toxic Derivatives; Make CFTC Impose 100% Margin and 5% Position Limits; Collect 1% Wall Street Sales Tax“. He also points out the fraud that is Ron Paul along with the other “reactionary hyenas”.

And btw: Paulsterity comes, whether or not it is Ron Paul, Paul Ryan or any of the criminals who have you brainwashed. Stephen Lendman lays it out perfectly:

According to the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, 62% of Ryan’s cuts come from “programs for lower-income Americans.” Over 10 years, it slashes $5.3 trillion from non-defense areas. At the same time, he allocates an additional $200 billion for defense and imperial wars with automatic add-ons annually plus unknown tens of billions in black budgets.

Specific proposed cuts include:

(1) $2.4 trillion from Medicaid and other low or moderate household income healthcare programs. Medicaid loses $810 billion. By repealing Obamacare’s Medicaid expansion and subsidies for those most in need to buy health insurance, he gets another $1.6 trillion.

(2) $1.2 trillion from programs other than Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, and other healthcare programs.

(3) $134 billion from Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) food stamp aid. If enacted, up to 10 million recipients would be entirely shut out.

(4) At least $463 billion from other programs serving America’s most needy, other than Medicaid and SNAP.

(5) At least another $291 billion in low-income discretionary programs, including Pell Grant tuition aid for needy students.

Ryan directs his cuts at vulnerable households unable to get by on what he wants reduced or eliminated. Millions will lose healthcare. Millions more won’t have enough to eat and will be dependent on what food banks provide. Education will suffer more than already. Poor students will have to forego it altogether.

He also explains that the Dems are virtually lock-step, but you wouldn’t know that from listening to the ObamaManiacs:

 

What Democrats endorse isn’t much better. Timing mostly differs to get past November elections.

For starters, Obama and Democrats agreed to the following cuts over the next decade:

 

• $4 trillion overall:

• $770 billion from education, environmental, transportation, and other infrastructure cuts, as well as lower wages and benefits for federal workers when they need more, not less;

• $480 billion from Medicare and Medicaid, besides another $1 trillion from Obamacare;

• $360 billion from mandated domestic programs, including food stamps, home heating assistance, income for the poor and disabled, federal pension insurance, and farm subsidies; and

• $400 billion from military-related spending from unneeded weapons, as well as healthcare and other benefits for active service members and veterans.

Is the answer bailing out of here? Some have told me to leave this country before its too late. Don Lucas wrote me and told me his story:

Mr. Buelahman,

I enjoy reading your site. My bio in a nutshell. Christian 45 years, lived in Christian commune in early 70′s 3 years, 9 years military, 18 prison guard, now semi-retired ( I work at painting and repairs when I can). In the 90′s I was a far right Christian patriot. I wrote tracts about the Founding Fathers and Constitutional liberties. During Bushes second term (in my ignorance and single issue ‘pro-life’, I voted for the lessor of two evils thinking erroneously that I was doing Gods will.

I have had a life long love of history, politics, and religion etc. I firmly believe that to vote for a candidate who by his words and/or actions will start and/or continue the US Wars of Aggression against poor people in order to steal their resources is morally wrong and refuse to participate.

Enough of the bio. IMO, the US can’t be fixed. There is not enough will or enough patriots to overthrow the government etc. We will follow the example of all know empires and fall, except because of our shrinking world ie communications, our monster size military and all of it controlled by the bankers and corporate Amerika the fall will be more rapid.

OK to the point. I encourage you and those you love to leave the US. I have lived in Colombia SA for a year. My wife is Colombian, which is of course a big help. My Spanish is coming along well. We plan to return to the US during 2012 and then return to Ecuador and Peru looking for a country in which to put down roots. I encourage you to do the same. My friend you can’t believe how free you feel living in South or Central America. You can do it on the cheap. You can live well on $1200 a month. Medical care is first rate and the climate, depending on your location is fantastic, the people are friendly and if you chose a country like Belize (English speaking, a big plus), Costa Rica, Ecuador, Peru, etc you will find many expats to converse with.

Just a little something for you to think about. As for me, I’ve made my choice and do not miss living in a police state one bit.

If you would like further info on leaving or have any questions, feel free to email.

God bless you

I explained all the issues that make leaving America impossible for me and my family. But don’t think for a second that the thought hasn’t crossed my mind numerous times.

But the sad fact is that even if you wanted leave, they are making it as difficult as possible for you to do so.

I feel as if I must ride it out and tell others about what I know and understand. Its all probably just a waste of time (I know several folks who have given up on educating others), but I have two main reasons for doing so: I don’t want my fellow Americans to starve and come to a horrible end AND I have a child that I want to know that I did what I could to stop it. For some day, she will ask me what I did to try and correct what has occurred. I will be able to show her and explain to her the effort I put into this blog and to local folks.

I asked in the Header, “Were We Doomed From The Very Beginning”? If you want a really wild explanation for why I am beginning to think so, read this excellent post, entitled, “The Constitution Con“. Many of the points I already knew, but it brings a new understanding to the Founding Fathers and their motivations.

I also recently listened to this interview that Charlie McGrath did with Stephan Molyneux and it is enlightening, especially in its discussion of minarchism and anarchism. They also hit on the subject linked above.

Funny Money Is The Only Thing That Keeps the US Afloat (Well, That, And Nukes)

All you have to do is use the search block on the left for the term “Reserve Currency” to see I have been harping for years that this is the only reason we are still able to dominate the rest of the world. Sure, we have a dominate military and we tear down countries that decide to buck that system. But, much of the rest of the world is now saying “No More!”

(And good for them)

In this edition of On the Edge, Max Keiser interviews Dr, Paul Craig Roberts from Georgia who is an American economist, columnist for Creators Syndicate, former Assistant Secretary of the Treasury in Reagan Administration and an editor of the Wall Street Journal.

Global financial crisis-On the Edge with Max Keiser-05-20-2011-(Part1)

Global financial crisis-On the Edge with Max Keiser-05-20-2011-(Part2)

To be very specific, in Nov of last year, I wrote about this thing, suggesting it was coming and that people should be prepared. I referenced a July 6, 2009 post I called, “Prepare Yourselves For The Dollar To Crash And Burn” and quoted myself:

The indicators have been around for a while (and I am sure that kelso can give specifics), but suffice it to say that when the big players in the world begin to sell off their Dollar investments and force the world into some other currency for trade, we will not be prepared for the devastation that will follow. We have basically destroyed our manufacturing in the US and have become so heavily military focused that the knee-jerk reaction will be for Americans to try and find work in a missile factory, et al. Or building ships (the largest employer in Mississippi is military, as I understand it)…

…We already know that China and Russia are pushing for the same.

But now we have India, who is a huge trading ally (and military ally), questioning the US Dollar Dominance:

I also referenced a Sept 2009 post where I wrote the following:

The Dollar value thingy means so little to me personally because I don’t have any to worry about. But as a nation, we better be very concerned about what the next steps are after Iran drops the Dollar. It is only a matter of time before China, Russia and, yes, even Europe dumps it, as well.

It will be that moment that the true nightmare begins in this country. Why? Because we are unable to produce our way out of it since we have lost so much of our manufacturing base.

And then I asked:

What if Japan, China, Russia, Iran (and any host of other Asian or Middle Eastern countries) say, “We have had enough of America’s bullying and world domination.”? What if these countries decide that America IS too big and that she needs to be taken down a notch (financially or militarily)? Please do not think that American Exceptional-ism will save our collective asses. It won’t.

Then in Feb of 2010, I wrote (in pondering how we might be taken down financially and potentially, militarily):

I have been warning about the consequences of the status quo and have said time and time again, we are on the precipice of disaster…

…Sure, there are many variables, such as how will our military react or what false flag event can they muster to take us into war with China (and Russia, Iran and Venezuela, cause they will ban together to fight us… mark my words).

In lieu of that last statement, you need to see THIS. Hell, these liars will pull out some of the most unbelievable crap just to try and make sure the Sheople will follow along, waving their Chinese made flags and screaming to kill the Persians.

Basically, we will continue to bully the smaller countries who give us the finger (like Iraq, who was dumping the petro-dollar) and we will push the buttons of more powerful countries (like Pakistan). In doing so, we are poking the dragon in the eye, for we are forcing their hand due to their strategic partnerships with those countries (including Libya, who, just coincidentally, was about to dump the dollar and use a gold-backed Dinar AND was determined to get most of Africa to join them).

Most of the people I know in real life are clueless about the significance of this and still believe that we are “spreading Democracy”, but when you focus on the real issues about our waning hegemony, you must be able to see what is really going on. Then you must do anything you can to be ready for the inevitable all-out war that we are obviously instigating on many fronts. When it happens (and I know it is like watching a slow speed landslide), it will horrendous for those unprepared:
