Anthony Migchels’ Easter Message: For The Love Of Christ

For The Love Of Christ

The struggle against the Money Power and its Usury is only the physical arm of the real spiritual battle: the war against self. It is a way of showing that we are in this world, but not of it.

Usury and Deflation, which is not a lesser scourge, are two of the key ways for Satan to weaponize the love of money, which is the root of all evil.

Not only do they redistribute wealth to the rich, they create artificial scarcity of money.

Scarcity of money is yet another paradoxical monetary issue. Even today, while the world seems awash in cash, money is scarce in terms of Interest-Free Economics, because there is not enough money in circulation to provide for a fully operational economy. Scarcity of money hinders the match between supply and demand.

Money is scarce when there is all the capital we need and all the labor we need, while not all the work is getting done. That’s the situation today, like it has been for a very long time now.

Usury creates scarcity of money, because it systematically redistributes to the rich who recirculate only that part of their wealth they need for conspicuous consumption and ‘investments’ that will only further increase their wealth. Deflation is taking money out of circulation, so its relation to the theme is self-explanatory.

The love of money is the love of self

Because money is scarce, there is always unemployment. Because there is always unemployment, there is always an existential angst. Because there is this fundamental fear, people focus on survival, even at the cost of their brethren. Because they focus on survival instead of doing His will and relying on His abundant Providence, self grows. Because self grows, Christ dwindles.

Jesus taught we need take up our cross to follow Him. And for what is the cross? To crucify self on, of course. That is our main task, every day of our lives. Few hear of this in churches, because the many prefer the easy grace: proclaiming Jesus is Lord and singing nice songs in church on Sunday. To them Christianity is more a social occasion, a pleasant illusion to cover up their fear, shame and guilt. They are not saved, alas. They are the goats, sent to the left.

Killing self never was a popular option. Most people continue to cling to the five aggregates (awareness, mind, heart, senses and body), as the Buddha put it, because they really believe they are self and are not desperate enough to look hard enough for a way out.

Sometimes I am, but self is an incredibly addictive object. Every time my focus on Christ ends my misery, I immediately disconnect from Him for more self-inflicted pain. It is indeed true that it is not darkness we fear, but the Light.

Self crucifixion certainly sounds painful, but that is the voice of self and as always it is wrong. It is self that is the cause of all pain. Jesus did not leave us with painful messages. Truth only hurts in the beginning, when we are still enthralled with the lie. He left us with the key to liberation and He sure walked His talk.

It took me a decade to understand what self or ego actually is. Once you see it, it’s simple enough though: self is everything that preoccupies awareness. Awareness itself is the most sticky bit of self.

“He must increase, but I must decrease.” (John 3:30) is how John the Baptist put it. The endgame of human development is permanent, complete focus on Christ. Through Him we will know our Father too.

Getting our priorities straight

By combating Usury and Deflation we hope to alleviate the pressures of artificial scarcity and to provide people with a more relaxed lifestyle. The idea is that if we take away fear for survival, people will be less absorbed by material issues. Less prone to the love of money.

In all fairness: it’s an uphill struggle. The premise is incorrect. Because it is love of self that allows the system, not the other way around. It is because people love self, that they look up to others with a bigger self. People have no compassion for the ultra wealthy, for their enslavement to matter. They see them as an example. They want to be one of them, instead of seeing these people have a problem and are an even bigger one.

Why fix the system if it is not broken? This is the question that most people don’t even care to ask, because to them the answer seems so self-evident.

True reform, true economic liberation can only come from ending our preoccupation with self. Recently a friend of mine told me Rudolf Steiner taught that society can only function well if people are willing to give, not-for-profit, the added value of their work to the community.

He was right.

It’s a mistake to say: but this can only work when everybody does it. It starts to work when the first one does it. In fact, it were the people who did this throughout the ages that kept humanity going, notwithstanding the horrible odds.

Why Do So Many People Hate Jews? Part 1: Jew Money

WHY DO SO MANY PEOPLE HATE JEWS?

The question really is:

Do people hate jews — or do they hate what jews do? Can you separate the two?

WHAT DO JEWS DO?

The major thing Jews do is operate a world-wide money creation fraud. That’s the main thing that jews do.
The money fraud is very simple.

But first…

WHAT IS MONEY?

Money is a means of exchanging the “value” of products and services. Money itself has no value — unless you use something valuable as money.
For example, you could use useful objects such as automobiles as money.
In such as case, you might say to someone, “Hey, if you build an addition onto my house — I will give you this automobile.”
Literally anything can be used as money.

WHAT IS JEW MONEY?

Jew money is different. Jew money is not merely a means of exchanging the “value” of products and services. It is a method of thievery.
In the example previously given, an automobile is being used as money in a transaction involving building an addition onto a house.
So let’s say that initially the homeowner who is offering the automobile as money shows the carpenter a brand new car and presents it in trade for the carpentry work.
Let’s say that once the carpentry work is completed, the homeowner delivers that same car minus an engine, transmission, wheels, tires, and interior…and says: “here is the car”. I paid you a car. Now get out of here. What do you think would happen?

Jew money works like that.

Jew money is a swindle.

JEWS CONTROL THE VALUE OF JEW MONEY

Your dollar (or Federal Reserve note) is jew money. Think of your dollar as your “cup of value”. The jew can change the size of your cup of value at will by employing several different methods. All of these methods constitute theft.

Please wake your friends and family up to this swindle. This is what powers the jews ability to damage and control you.

You can stop them. But first, you need to understand what they are doing and how they are doing it.

Richard Noggin Saturday: Tennessee Senator “Bailout Bob” Corker

I know a lot of Tennesseans who are barely making it. Many people, even with some money are very close to losing their homes and are becoming unable to feed their families. People are staying at home, instead of their normal forays out into the community. Almost everyone I know has a loved one that is in dire straights and help them whenever they can… financially, with food, taking care of their children, etc.

Food pantries are growing. Many food aid programs for kids, specifically, are seeing rising numbers.

But these same people cannot see the disconnect of the moron, Bailout Bob Corker (the puppet of the Federal Reserve) that they recently elected (AGAIN) in large numbers. How can people be so stupid to support and elect such a lying fool, when it is obvious what the real issues are. Just look where he gets his money and understand that he is protecting the very ones that are causing the problems in this country.

You can see the interview here, but it will make you want to puke, if you understand anything about what this sycophantic numbnuts is saying.

Instead of suggesting that the mega-bailouts to bankers and giant corporations are an issue (no, he gushes praise on the thieving bastards), instead of explaining that the Empire can no longer be supported (meaning that the US military, the world’s BIGGEST “entitlement” program, ever, MUST BE CUT… SUBSTANTIALLY), instead of telling us that the bogus “war on drugs” or the continued support for apartheid Israel is draining us, he says that Medicare, Social Security and Foodstamps must be cut… you know, the “entitlements”. It doesn’t matter that he hasn’t helped bring more jobs to the market and that most of the people I know receiving foodstamps WORK, TOO. Its just that their jobs don’t pay a living wage.

I’m telling you people that what I have been warning you about is coming.

You are about to see massive changes to the help that poor people need. This means that you are about to witness people suffer and die, while we continue the Empire for Israel and maintain the the $BILLIONS poured out to Israel and the tax cuts to the richest of the rich (like Corkwhore).

When you see the invalids, the mentally disabled, the poor old Grandmothers and the most innocent children starve and die, will you say something or do anything? What will it take for you to understand that whores like Corker are in this for other reasons than to help or to represent you, as Tennesseans?

It is already happening in Ohio, as HeartofShadows points out.

And before any fool starts breaking out the charts that show entitlement spending being more than military “defense” spending, remember that we aren’t defending anything except the profits of military providers. At the same time we are sending jobs away to foreign lands, which force workers to utilize whatever assistance they can get. Don’t just mumble the bullshit, “Get a job” when there are so very few jobs to get.

Maybe you are one of those heartless bastards that thinks we need a culling of the “entitlement” users. If so, I hope you are one of the first to go.

Wall Street’s Greatest Wet Dream: The Grand Bargain Betrayal

I told you long ago that Obama was W II (the third and now fourth term of George W Bush policies). Very little has changed, except that Americans (especially black ones) think that his color makes him some sort of Messiah. I have said many times that he is whiter than I am, meaning that he is acting black, but serving the interests of whitesJews. And only the uninformed can really argue that point, as Luke points out in one of his latest videos:

Luke Rudkowski hits the streets of NYC to find out where Obama supporters really stand on his policies. Now he did this in an underhanded way where the policies where presented to be Romney’s, but this was only done to get an honest opinion. The reactions when the truth was uncovered varied but they were very telling to say the least.

Of course Luke won’t tell you about the Jewish connection, but the point is that every one of those he interviewed show their total ignorance when it comes to Obama’s policies. The Obama Brand has done a great job of lying people into believing a load of bullshit that simply perpetuates the Empire and direction towards American financial serfdom.

After his “win” in this past sElection, he now work to implement the final austerity goals that Steve Lendman (quoting Bill Black) lays out as “forced-fed austerity“:

Force-fed austerity assures the worst of hard times. It’s responsible for what Black calls “the four horsemen of the economic apocalypse:”

• economic decline;
• job cuts and greater unemployment;
• increased deficits and debt; and
• destruction of safety net protections.

Wall Street Wants It ALL, Folks

They want your retirement. They want your healthcare. They want your Social Security. They want your property. They want your savings.

They want to control it all.

And when I say “Wall Street”, I mean what Lendman, nor Black will say out loud… Jews and their parasitic lackeys.

The goal is to take this country down to third world status, where the very rich prosper and the poor barely sustain a miserable existence the best we can. Enough pain felt, for long enough, and us poor ole rednecks will beg them to bring the work back, at slave wage levels, just to feed out kids and care for our sickly old folks, since SSI is going to be privatized (continuing W’s wet dream).

Bill Black explains it very well in his Real News interview:

Bill Black: A group of Democrats called “The Third Way” are working with President Obama towards the “grand betrayal” on social security

The Grand Bargain IS Paulsterity

Image found at http://geniusofinsanityworld.blogspot.com/2012/05/spending-vs-austerity.html

I have warned you multiple times about Paulsterity. I told you that it didn’t matter whether or not it was Ron Paul or Paul Ryan’s plan, or whether or not the liar-in-chief, Obama, wins another term, Austerity is coming. I have warned you that it doesn’t matter which of the two complicit duopolistic parties win, the end result will be hurting poor folks at the expense of the rich getting richer (why do you think they give all this money to the elections in the first place: because they “love America”?).

Morons.

Image found at http://contemporarycondition.blogspot.com/2012/03/science-and-ethics-of-austerity-lessons.html

They give all that money because they want something in return. They want to control the money (and control it right into their own pockets). They will do so by attacking the social network while NOW is the time to keep their greedy fingers off of it. Now, the worst financial situation this country has ever found herself in is a result of privatization which simply makes those who can afford to buy even richer at your expense.

I mentioned a friend’s unwavering dedication to Romney and the Republicans, mainly because he thinks Obama is a communist and Romney is a Capitalist (indicating that he would be better than Obama). I insisted that on the issues that matter, disregarding the propaganda of Rush Limbaugh (he did use him as an example), they are the same, and that they are both bad for this country.

In a passing comment about Romney vs Obama, I wrote:

As for preferring Romney over Obama… one is just as evil as the other. Both are corrupt, as are both parties. Both serve Israel’s interests (Romney will probably be much worse than Obama, as a matter of fact).

To me, my concern isn’t about which person or party wins, for we all lose with either one.

He countered:

Sorry B’Man, can’t agree with much of what you say below. Your belief that Romney and Obama are the same is simply wrong, and I’m very sad that you think this way. Obama is a communist, plain and simple, and his communist roots and education are plain for all to see. Romney is a successful capitalist and a decent man. Are saying communism is morally equal to capitalism? If so, you couldn’t be more wrong and I would hardly know where to start in convincing you otherwise. How about this: Do you want this country to look like Cuba, Russia, or China?

You see, he immediately went for at least one of the Seventeen Techniques For Truth Suppression.

I had to explain, again, that the system is corrupt (I used the word “evil”) and had to bring out my tired old motto:

My motto is “Ne’er an R or D Again”.

The two party paradigm has grabbed you. I am sorry that you don’t understand what I’m saying. You have lived much longer than I and surely have experienced the ping pong effect. One election year is the lesser of two evils. The next election year, it is the other lesser of two evils. I assume you understand evil. Evil is evil. Period.

The debates are controlled by those two parties. Big Money controls both parties. It is obvious simply by following where they put their money in each election cycle (Opensecrets.org).

Obama is evil. Romney is evil. The system is evil.

And this is the mindset that keeps us in bondage to Big Money. An undying allegiance to one of the two dominating evil parties. A lack of discernment, both politically and spiritually. A trust in one’s favorite “lesser of two evils” and the total abandonment of sanity and/or clear thinking. A purposeful dedication to an evil, corrupt system that is blatantly obvious to any open-minded, sane person.

DCDave sent me a link this morning to The Activist Post (I have been a long time subscriber to their site and must have forgotten this comparison of the two evil, lying characters running for POTUS. They write that there are “40 Points That Prove That Barack Obama and Mitt Romney Are Essentially The Same Candidate‘:

1. Barack Obama and Mitt Romney both supported TARP.

2. Mitt Romney supported Barack Obama’s “economic stimulus” packages.

3. Mitt Romney says that Barack Obama’s bailout of the auto industry was actually his idea.

4. Neither candidate supports immediately balancing the federal budget.

5. They both believe in big government and they both have a track record of being big spenders while in office.

6. Barack Obama and Mitt Romney both fully support the Federal Reserve.

7. Barack Obama and Mitt Romney are both on record as saying that the president should not question the “independence” of the Federal Reserve.

8. Barack Obama and Mitt Romney have both said that Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke did a good job during the last financial crisis.

9. Barack Obama and Mitt Romney both felt that Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke deserved to be renominated to a second term.

10. Both candidates oppose a full audit of the Federal Reserve.

11. Both candidates are on record as saying that U.S. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner has done a good job.

12. Barack Obama and Mitt Romney have both been big promoters of universal health care.

13. Mitt Romney was the one who developed the plan that Obamacare was later based upon.

14. Wall Street absolutely showers both candidates with campaign contributions.

15. Neither candidate wants to eliminate the income tax or the IRS.

16. Both candidates want to keep personal income tax rates at the exact same levels for the vast majority of Americans.

17. Both candidates are “open” to the idea of imposing a Value Added Tax on the American people.

18. Barack Obama and Mitt Romney both believe that the TSA is doing a great job.

19. Barack Obama and Mitt Romney both supported the NDAA.

20. Barack Obama and Mitt Romney both supported the renewal of the USA PATRIOT Act.

21. Barack Obama and Mitt Romney both believe that the federal government should be able to indefinitely detain American citizens that are considered to be terrorists.

22. Both candidates believe that American citizens suspected of being terrorists can be killed by the president without a trial.

23. Barack Obama has not closed Guantanamo Bay like he promised to do, and Mitt Romney actually wants to double the number of prisoners held there.

24. Both candidates support the practice of “extraordinary rendition”.

25. They both support the job-killing “free trade” agenda of the global elite.

26. They both accuse each other of shipping jobs out of the country and both of them are right.

27. Both candidates are extremely soft on illegal immigration.

28. Neither candidate has any military experience. This is the first time that this has happened in a U.S. election since 1944.

29. Both candidates earned a degree from Harvard University.

30. They both believe in the theory of man-made global warming.

31. Mitt Romney has said that he will support a “cap and trade” carbon tax scheme (like the one Barack Obama wants) as long as the entire globe goes along with it.

32. Both candidates have a very long record of supporting strict gun control measures.

33. Both candidates have been pro-abortion most of their careers. Mitt Romney’s “conversion” to the pro-life cause has been questioned by many. In fact, Mitt Romney has made millions on Bain Capital’s investment in a company called “Stericycle” that incinerates aborted babies collected from family planning clinics.

34. Barack Obama and Mitt Romney both believe that the Boy Scout ban on openly gay troop leaders is wrong.

35. They both believe that a “two state solution” will bring lasting peace between the Palestinians and Israel.

36. Both candidates have a history of nominating extremely liberal judges.

37. Like Barack Obama, Mitt Romney also plans to add “signing statements” to bills when he signs them into law.

38. They both have a horrible record when it comes to job creation.

39. Both candidates believe that the president has the power to take the country to war without getting the approval of the U.S. Congress.

40. Both candidates plan to continue running up more government debt even though the U.S. government is already 16 trillion dollars in debt.

I am not saying that I agree with every point (for instance, I don’t see number 12 being correct… neither want “universal healthcare”, what they want is to privatize the system and continue feeding the beast that is draining the system, Health Insurance… NOT the same thing. Nor is ObamaCare “universal healthcare”… #13). But, by and large, most are an accurate comparison.

It truly boils down to Big Money and austerity measures to keep afloat the very ones that have wrecked our economy, at YOUR and my (and our children for generations to come) expense. They truly desire to create a third world country where the few ultra-rich dominate the millions of us poor folk.

A vote for Romney is a vote for Paulsterity (Paul Ryan’s Plan).

A vote for Obama is also Paulsterity (or the Great Bargain).

The insanity (or stupid allegiance, whatever) to continuing the support of either “Party” or the bought and paid for candidates that the bogus media has brainwashed you with, is not only horrific for me and my family, but it is equally bad for your family. Its time you get your heads out of your butts and see what’s going on.

One could simply not vote (and if enough were to stay away, in protest, perhaps it would send a message). But there is another way, if enough people got on board, and that is to vote for ANYONE else that is unassociated with an R or D (reTHUGlican or demoRAT).

A poster promoting the virtues of austerity. But who really benefits? Photo: Flickr Creative Commons

There are some third party or independent candidates running, personally, I am voting for Merlin Miller (will write him in, if he is not on the ballot). At least he is not afraid to call out the best reason we are falling apart as a country.

At least then, we would easily be able to see the obvious election manipulation that will permeate the corrupt voting machines as Dr Paul Craig Roberts highlights in today’s post at his site.

You will finally recognize that next year, when they cut your Social Security, Food Stamps, Medicare/Medicaid… when you see the poor people begin to starve and/or get sick and die because you didn’t have the sense or discernment to see what is obviously coming… when you will be the one that suffers burdens to take care of your elderly mother, because they are taking away the safety net that all of us poor rednecks have piad for all of our lives… when they complete the cycle of theft, by taking your savings because there is no interest paid on the meager money you do have left… when the final condition will be them taking your home because you cannot afford the taxes…

THEN and only then will the brain-dead, political sycophantic fools FINALLY realize that dumb ole redneck, B’Man, warned you to the best of his ability.

But then it will be too late.

Morons.

Coming To America

Most of us rednecks haven’t figured out that Austerity is the next big phase confronting us. We have primers in Europe that explain what is coming. Sure, at first, most of us will sit at home and watch the TV news and all the “truth” it contains. But eventually, that loud mouth neighbor down the street that said something to you over the summer about a “Police State” and loss of liberties and all that other rantings he does (like about how that special government agency, the “Federal Reserve” prints money to bail out corporations and banks…. duh, WTF WAS he talking about????) you start to realize that at least some of what he said is true and maybe he isn’t quite the crackpot you thought he was (I mean, why would he give your family some extra squash, okra and peas, if he wasn’t a little crazy?)

You don’t really understand the mumbo jumbo because you have really been keeping up with the football scores and haven’t been able to think about politics… and shoot, Facebook has been so crazy lately that you find you have spent all evening reading and catching up on the recent craziness going on with your hometown crime. Damned people should just get a job… like I did.

Europe is seeing it and they are getting their asses kicked by their boys in blue.

Spain:

Let me make a suggestion: when the boys in blue in America take to the streets like that, do you truly believe that all you will get is some stick against your leg, arm or head. If you think that they won’t employ much more harmful weaponry, then you truly have NOT been paying attention.

So, maybe the ones in America will look more like Greece:

Hell, what am I saying? I don’t think I know ANYONE within 100 miles of me who would join me in a protest, much less if they knew that concussion grenades, tear gas, TASERS, Microwave weapons, sound cannons, etc will be deployed. Most of you are still arguing about which POTUS candidate looks more American than the other, instead of acknowledging the real issues facing us.

America is fucked.

You will play their sElection game and right afterwards they will lower the boom on us all.

The Grand Bargain

“Everything being equal, unless we stop it, what will happen is there will be a ‘grand bargain’ after the election in which the White House and some Democrats will sit down with Republicans, they will move to a chained CPI.”

~ Sen Bernie Sanders

If you read here, you realize that the “fix” is in. No matter if its Romney or Obama, austerity comes. Obama’s normal tendency is to lie with abandon, slick smile and all, and then do exactly what he says he will not do. Truly psychopathic, if there ever was one.

He is now eluding to Paulsterity (The Paul Ryan Plan to cut “entitlements”, while boosting military and killing budgets), as if he will NOT cut those benefits.

And sadly, like the woman in this video (I believe she is acting), the country believes that Obama is looking out for her. He isn’t. Stop fooling yourself.

I have a friend who is dependent upon Social Security to make ends meet. I know MANY older people who might not be alive if it weren’t for SSI benefits and Medicare. I certainly know more than a few children that would go hungry every day, if it weren’t for the measly amount in Food Stamps that they get.

What is about to happen right after the election is going to be devastating for many of us, including old folks and poor kids. But if you think you are immune because you happen to work for one of the corporations that thrive from screwing the others in this country (Big Meds, Big Insurance, Big Military, Big Prison, Big Food, or Big Government… just to name a few), I can assure you that your time is coming.

And, if I may, you Obama Maniacs are seriously deluded to believe a single word that man utters.

Obama’s entire method of governing depends on duplicity, deception, and dissembling. At the same time, he is not entirely secretive about his preference for brutal cuts, and does signal from time to time more or less what he intends to do. But many Americans, stupefied by spectator sports and “reality” television, are too estranged from reality to understand what is happening.

If you had any sense (and a scrotum), you would speak up and do something. Maybe not because you have any semblance of compassion for others, or any feigned attempt at morality or Christ-like values, but because you are slowly realizing that what you are seeing in Europe is but a couple months away from happening here and soon, your privileged kids will see how hard it is (a life lesson hard-learned, no doubt)  to carry on with the lie that is American politics.

I’ve been trying my best to grab you by the shirt collar and figuratively shake some sense into you. I suppose it will take the loss of that cushy job and the pain of seeing your own parents and children suffer before you realize how selfish and stupid you have been.

Worse, tho, are the black folk I know that cling to some Savior image of Obama. Many now admit that they voted for him cause he’s black (like the lady in the video). And when addressed (like Joe Cortina did), they obviously don’t know what a total and complete liar he is, they believe him to be the opposite of what he truly is.

It was time to set the hook and reel in the catch. I responded: ” And I’ll bet you have a respect for the lives of children and might even be a Christian”. She smiled and proudly stated that she was indeed a follower of the Lord and that babies’ lives were sacred to her. I purposely look puzzled and asked her: “Ma-am – it is not my business of course but I am now curious – as to why you voted for Obama – I mean what was the most important reason?”

She looked pensive for a moment then smiled again and said: “I guess to be honest – it was he be a black man”.
NOW I ‘set the hook and dropped the bomb. Ma-am – I’m confused – you said you loved the lord and little babies – did you know that Mr. Obama not ONLY voted against a bill to save children but sponsored a law that any child who survived one of those horrible partial birth abortions – was to be killed anyway” – which was of course 100% true.

Her face changed from a smile to a look of puzzlement and almost fear. I quickly added : OH my God – you didn’t know that? Certainly as an a responsible adult you must have taken time to find out WHO he REALLY was and WHAT he REALLY stands for – didn’t you? -I asked almost pleadingly.

B’Man’s Guest Post: Liberty’s HOW BERNANKE HIDES $4 BILLION DAILY FROM CONGRESS

Have you been wondering how Ben Bernanke can conceal $4 BILLION from Congress EVERY DAY ??? It is from the auctions of Treasury securities.

Those accounts are handled EXCLUSIVELY by the FRBNY and are never reported. Read below to add details. Maybe your senators would be interested, but they do receive lavish campaign contributions and insider information that benefits their net worth from “financiers.”.

Read it and weep.

___________________________

Open letter to my senators

RE: THE FEDERAL RESERVE HEIST

or

HOW BEN HIDES $4 BILLION FROM CONGRESS DAILY

Dear Senator,

Mr. Ben Bernanke told the Senate Banking committee that the government must take action (deficit spending) to prevent an economic collapse. Did he tell Congress that every dollar of such spending would be profit for the Fed that would be hidden by the FRBNY in apparent violation of the law ??

A popular concept is that the government will “borrow” from the Federal Reserve. This involves giving a Treasury security (bill, bond, or note) to the Fed as collateral and the Fed will credit an account of the government in the amount of the security. The government then spends the (book-entry) funds while the Fed (theoretically) holds the collateral; i.e. deficit spending. Voila !! Additional (fiat) money has been injected into the economy of the Nation which, in the opinion of Mr. Bernanke, may stabilize the economy.

Observe that the Fed holds the collateral. When the collateral matures, government must pay the Fed to redeem the security. The fiat money spent by government must be re-acquired and paid to the Fed. But the government has already spent the money and the bank account is zero.

So the Fed can sell the collateral at the Treasury auctions (if it has not already been auctioned). If the funds went to the government, the Fed would essentially give up the security. Bankers are not known to generously give up money.

Also, if the funds went to the government, they would be used to pay off the debt of the security that had been issued and that would negate the existence of the debt and further it eliminates any inflation from the currency in circulation being increased. Since this does not happen, the funds from deficit spending cannot go to the government.

The Federal Reserve Bank of New York has the responsibility of handling all accounting and funds for Treasury auctions. The funds from deficit spending go into the FRBNY but they are not recorded as coming out. These items are not included in the ANNUAL REPORT TO CONGRESS nor are they dispensed in any government record

Receipts from the 2010 Treasury auctions totaled $8.4 trillion. $7 trillion was used to roll-over preexisting securities (without increasing the national debt) and $1.4 trillion was received from deficit spending as detailed above. That $1.4 trillion ($4 billion every day–7/52) disappeared in the catacombs of the FRBNY.

Profit of the Fed legally belongs to the government. Concealment of funds belonging to the government is identified as embezzlement and subject to one year incarceration per count. Ref. 18 USC section 641. Nonpayment of monies belonging to the government is a separate crime and subject to five years incarceration. Ref. 18 USC section 1001. Anyone knowing of such an offense who “relieves, comforts or assists the offender…to prevent his apprehension, trial or punishment, is an accessory after the fact.” Ref. 18 USC section 3.

Perhaps members of Congress would want to reflect on their involvement.

Respectfully,

PS Conclusion: The Federal Reserve wants more money to (temporarily) bail out the NY banks from their fraudulent derivatives gambles while your constituents get ripped off from inflation and an increasing inescapable, unpayable national debt that will bankrupt the Nation and transfer ALL wealth to the (unknown) owners of the FRBOG by their Ponzi scheme.

US Financial Crisis and Crash Is Imminent

I mentioned yesterday that our wages have taken a dive and basically equal 1967 levels. I said that I have been warning about this “System” for years and what I saw as the only strategic advantage we have is to prepare by growing as much as possible, our own food, putting away some silver (and a bit of gold) for bartering purposes. I have suggested that you have a weapon for hunting/protection. I have done all the same things that I recommended, by the way.

Do I feel prepared? Not really. But I have food stocks. I have LP gas stored. I have everything I need, except long term, alternative power source (although I do have wood and a wood heater, should a total breakdown occur).

I would suggest that we are about to embark in some extreme times, and very soon.

Quantitative Easing is happening. And the reason for it has nothing, whatsoever, to do with job creation. It is simply more extraction of American’s wealth to pay off the gamblers in the Big Banks.

Way back in Jan, Snordelhans created a video from horse237′s (the Video Rebel) essay, “Translating Zero Hedge: Your Wages Will Be Cut In Half“, in which horse suggests that 2012/2013 is the crash year. He suggests that your wages will be cut in half… maybe not literally, but because of inflation/hyperinflation, your purchasing power will be halved. He discusses Bernanke’s claims and the speech that I highlighted here, that basically spells out what they are doing.

1. Lower interest rates to near zero (check)
2. Buy Securities to expand Federal balance sheet (check)
3. Increase money supply (check)
4. Buy foreign and domestic government debt (check)
5. Devalue the Dollar (Next)

Well, Helicopter Ben, just announced #5, the last step in the preplanned dismantling of the US Dollar.

Just as I have bitched about here for so long, it has been the De-industrialization, especially via NAFTA (and all the other “Shaftyas”) as the main conduit. They intentionally sent our jobs away. This went a long way towards the goal of removing money from the middle class to feed the baby-eaters and other worshipers of Giant Corporations.

So, I can see prices skyrocketing at the grocery store, my utilities and power. Gas is on a constant rise. Virtually everything is going up.

Is horse’s vision and reasoning sound? Do we actually have but weeks before the proverbial shit hits the fan?

This Is Your Final Warning: The Worst Financial Disaster In 500 Years Is Nigh

My Debt Cancellation hero is Professor Steve Keen of Australia.

He said in a recent  video
1) We have the greatest level of debt to GDP to cancel in 500 years which means we are approaching the greatest Depression in 500 years. That means the greatest levels of Austerity unemployment, wage cuts, defaults, bankruptcies and starvation in 500 years in Europe,  North America and the rest of the world. Of course if we followed Dr Keen’s advice on Debt Cancellation we know for a certainty: ‘This need not be.’

2) The nations which have been deindustrialized (emphasis on America) will face the hardest landing when debts are cancelled and we are forced to face reality. He said he feared for the fate of those people in deindustrialized nations  when the paper Bubble is pierced.

American deindustrialization began in 1994 with the passage of the North American Free Trade Act. The Federal Reserve has just announced it will begin or really continue buying up fraudulent Mortgage Backed Securities. This will free up cash for the banks to drive up food prices by buying even more commodities in the futures markets. Foreigners will realize our current inflation will accelerate and rise rapidly after the elections. The real inflation rate is 10% but will go higher as the dumping of the dollar accelerates. Investors are buying gold and silver. The dollar has declined in value which makes imports including oil more expensive. China simultaneously announced that they will trade for oil in yuan. Henry Kissinger invented the Petrodollar after th1973 Arab-Israeli war. America needed wars and rumors of ward in the Mideast to spike oil prices higher. Higher oil prices were good for the dollar because OPEC took all those excess dollars they earned to buy US Treasury bonds. The Japanese and the Chinese who have no oil ran huge trade surpluses with America which they used to buy oil. And all those Petrodollars were forwarded to Washington  to fund America’s wars for Israel.

The Petrodollar is near death. I recently wrote that the Chinese are buying gold as if they knew the dollar would die very soon. Consider this fact.  The FED is starting to accelerate inflation from a 10% base which will severely punish anyone holding dollars. And with the Federal Reserve announcing they will keep interest rates low through 2015 we know the dollar will decline rapidly. Who would buy a Treasury bond paying 3% interest when he reads that the inflation rate has just reached 15%?  Who would hold onto a Treasury bond he bought last year after he reads that the American inflation rate has soared to 20%? And will anyone hold dollars after the inflation rate reaches 25%?  I have defined a 25% inflation as the beginning point for Hyperinflation for an international reserve currency like the dollar.

There is a tipping point at which everyone including America’s best friends will clearly see the end is nigh and dump the dollar. I have been predicting a crash after the elections for some time. I have also been predicting a Bretton Woods type conference will be called at which the dollar is devalued by at least 40%. That is the end of the America we knew. Combined with am existing 10% inflation rate that means your wages and pensions will be cut in half. Inflation was recently quieted in America for a few months with the decline in the value of the euro but now once again the euro is rising and the dollar is declining. Food and gasoline prices are once again rising steadily.

There will be an economic shock within 4 weeks. I believe its purpose will be to stampede the voters into voting for Romney as Obama has outlived his usefulness. Both men are puppets of the New World Order. This period before the elections might well be your last chance to stock up on food before the dollar crashes.

I must repeat that all of this suffering is not necessary. It began with the creation of the Federal Reserve in 1913.  We can stop it by repealing the Federal Reserve Act and ending both fractional reserve banking and interest bearing currencies.

I wrote an article some time ago about your wages being cut in half. The rise in inflation was slowed a bit by the rise in the dollar due to the euro’s decline which has now been reversed. The dollar’s demise will be swift with the announcement of Quantitative Easing to Infinity. Fasten your seat belts. Anyone who gets paid in dollars is in for a bumpy ride.

Notes: This first article is really important in terms of solving our economic problems through Debt Cancellation.

Freaky Sex Friday: The System Is Being Used To Screw Us

The Terror War is not an event, or a campaign, or even a crusade; it is a system. Its purpose is not to eliminate “terrorism” (however this infinitely elastic term is defined) but to perpetuate itself, to do what it does: make war. This system can be immensely rewarding, in many different ways, for those who operate or assist it, whether in government, media, academia, or business. This too is a self-sustaining dynamic, a feedback loop that gives money, power and attention to those who serve the system; this elevated position then allows them to accrue even more money, power and attention, until in the end — as we can plainly see today — any alternative voices and viewpoints are relegated to the margins. They are “unserious.” They are unimportant. They are not allowed to penetrate or alter the operations of the system.

From Chris Floyd’s latest piece (quoted from an earlier article)

How much money is to be spent on these lies?

Answer: ALL OF IT

Obviously, we are being taken for everything we have as a nation (the world, for that matter). I have said many times that they are making a last-ditch effort to take it all and put all of us poor folks in indebted service to their superior ways of thinking/leadership. Dr Paul Craig Roberts shared a graphic that tells us of the intentionally manipulated decline into poverty (taken from Shadowstats).

None of this is new:

It is an age-old story here in America.

I grew up in the 60′s and remember 1967 as one of the worst years of my life. My Dad returned from his first tour of duty in Viet Nam a drunken, callous, murderous fool who turned his back on his two small children and wife, took enough time to kick his wife in the stomach which killed the 8 month old fetus (and almost killed my mother). I was 6 and witnessed this first hand. His drunkenness. His anger. His screaming outrage and finally the kick directly to her stomach.

A pitiful, sniveling drunk, in a rage no child should ever witness, standing over my Mother as she moaned and cried in pain and disbelief, manically smirking at her. I believe to this day that he had every intention of killing both the baby and her. He succeeded in killing my baby brother or sister.

I remember the ambulance coming to get her and wondering if I or my 4 year old sister would be next.

I remember that the Army ignored the reports from the hospital and the several people that contacted them over this attack.

I remember her finally recuperating and finding myself without a Dad and us being forced to move into even MORE squalor than we were already used to (a two room shack with a tin roof), as this “hero” bought himself a brand new Corvette and a new wife many years his younger. I remember the lies he would tell my sister and I, coming up with excuses to cover his alcoholism and the many instances where he promised to come get us and spend time with us. I remember waiting at the school for hours, until dark (I was 7) and he never showed up ( a teacher happened to see me and contact my Mother, who thought my Dad had already picked me up). I remember many times where we had so little food, and NO meat, causing me to be anemic and very, very thin, but good ole Dad was fat, dumb, drunk and happy. I remember the times when he did not send Christmas presents, or even call his kids on Christmas day (which, even to a very small child, would have been the best Christmas present I could have ever gotten). I remember that instead of owning up to his responsibilities, he JUMPED at the chance for us to be adopted by my step-father (which was one of the best things that ever happened to me, as a child).

It was during those times before my step-Dad that we even transcended the chart above, but way to the negative.

The last thing I ever wanted in my life was to go back to those days. That is why I studied so hard… worked so hard… joined the stinking Navy during the huge negative blip in ’82… invested so much money in my education… reinvented myself over and over. I hoped, prayed and worked my ass off to avoid what is happening to the mass of us in America. To no avail.

It is also the key reason why I have had this blog… to try and stop the System before it destroys us all.

I failed.

I am sorry.

The Useless Drug

Prince Ea addresses Barry about his lies and politician’s protection of corporate control, especially the healthcare sickcare industry:

Reality: The Power of Hemp and It’s Countless Uses

Mercola’s take:

I have to take issue with one statement made in this article…Marijuana is NOT addictive. It has none of the typical dependency or withdrawal reactions in the brain like cocaine, heroin or cigarettes. This is a huge misrepresentation of the drug and one of the greatest reasons why it should be legalized.

Cigarettes are HIGHLY addictive, cause everything from DNA damage to heart disease and 9 different forms of cancer, and yet they’re perfectly legal. This makes no sense, but it’s due largely to misunderstanding and often intentional misdirection and obfuscation of the facts.

Lastly, I should note that it’s also not a “gateway drug”. Many of us experimented with marijuana in college, however, not a one of us had any intention of trying other recreational drugs like cocaine or even LSD. In fact, those kids that were “coke heads” were pretty much ostracized.

In regards to marijuana being addicting, it has no chemical/physical addictions, but it can still be addicting since it does provide “good feelings.” It is easy to escape to those good feelings, like many do with other drugs, activities, and things in life. It is not really fair to label marijuana addicting if other things can be addicting in the same premise. For instance, I know people addicted to all sorts of things: processed foods (though they literally can be addicting ), video games, bad habits, or just any random thing that can promote happiness in a person. Parents should not worry about their kids being addicted to weed, but instead be worried if their children have addictive personalities.

Addictive or gateway drug? No, its an “exit drug”, for it is being used by hardcore meth, coke, heroin addicts get off their real problems by using the MEDICINE that history has always shown it to be, except since Anslinger went on the rampage for Big Money.

There’s been a lot of talk back and forth regarding whether marijuana is or is not (as I asserted) addictive. So here are some studies from both sides of the argument:

An extensive list of various studies relating to marijuana: www.marijuana.com/myths

Another review of the literature showing no definitive addiction: www.cannabismd.net/addiction

Marijuana not a “gateway drug”: scienceblog.com/…/study-says-marijuana-no-gateway-drug

A Psychology Today article that says it is mildly addictive (though most related to psychological dependence as opposed to physical dependence): www.psychologytoday.com/blog/the-teenage-mind/201012/is-marijuana-addi..

A rather famous study showing that drug laws actually INCREASE the incidence of drug use: www.mapinc.org/…/limited.pdf

So, you may still believe the lies because you feel the government looks out for your best interest, but if its so bad for us, why did our government patent it in 2003?

Marijuana is so bad for us, the USA patented all the good stuff about it in 2003.

Read the patent:

www.google.com/…/about

“Abstract:

Cannabinoids have been found to have antioxidant properties, unrelated to NMDA receptor antagonism. This new found property makes cannabinoids useful in the treatment and prophylaxis of wide variety of oxidation associated diseases, such as ischemic, age-related, inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. The cannabinoids are found to have particular application as neuroprotectants, for example in limiting neurological damage following ischemic insults, such as stroke and trauma, or in thetreatment of neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease and HIV dementia. …”

Memory Loss?

“Marijuana CAUSES memory loss, so it should never be recommended for “treatment” of Alheimer’s…

Wrong.  See pubs.acs.org/…/mp060066m. (August 9, 2006

Copyright © 2006 American Chemical Society) To quote the abstract:

“Here, we demonstrate that the active component of marijuana, Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), competitively inhibits the enzyme acetylcholinesterase (AChE) as well as prevents AChE-induced amyloid β-peptide (Aβ) aggregation, the key pathological marker of Alzheimer’s disease. Computational modeling of the THC−AChE interaction revealed that THC binds in the peripheral anionic site of AChE, the critical region involved in amyloidgenesis. Compared to currently approved drugs prescribed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease, THC is a considerably superior inhibitor of Aβ aggregation, and this study provides a previously unrecognized molecular mechanism through which cannabinoid molecules may directly impact the progression of this debilitating disease. “

In reality, the undiagnosed leading causes of Alzheimers are toxic neural metal poisoning and MSG, both of which cause excessive neural damage due to excitotoxicity in the brain neural receptors, which cause the brain to have issues.  B12 in large doses (5000 mcg+) helps counter the effects and the damage and repair those receptors, especially on the MSG side.  That’s also why there is some belief that Alzheimer’s is a form of elderly ASD, because of the metal toxicity commonalities and neural effects in terms of the neural operations (although the physical manifestations vary).

Toking and Driving:

As for the worries of cannabis and driving, although driving under its use is certainly to be discouraged, it does not cause nearly the impairment of alcohol. Our very own federal government reports that driving under the influence of cannabis is generally safer than driving under the influence of alcohol.

– “A low THC dose (100 ug/kg) does not impair driving ability in urban traffic to the same extent as a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of 0.04g%.”

– “Drivers under the influence of marijuana tend to over-estimate the adverse effects of the drug on their driving quality and compensate when they can; e.g. by increasing effort to accomplish the task, increasing headway or slowing down, or a combination of these.”

– “Drivers under the influence of alcohol tend to under-estimate the adverse effects of the drug on their driving quality and do not invest compensatory effort.”
