Look out for Fascist Policies....Change was Promised and is Happening
The Eight Marks of Fascist Policy | ||
After reviewing this long history, John T. Flynn proceeds to sum up with a list of eight points he considers to be the main marks of the fascist state. As I present them, I will also offer comments on the modern American central state. Point 1. The government is totalitarian because it acknowledges no restraint on its powers. This is a very telling mark. It suggests that the US political system can be described as totalitarian. This is a shocking remark that most people would reject. But they can reject this characterization only so long as they happen not to be directly ensnared in the state’s web. If they become so, they will quickly discover that there are indeed no limits to what the state can do. This can happen boarding a flight, driving around in your hometown, or having your business run afoul of some government agency. In the end, you must obey or be caged like an animal or killed. In this way, no matter how much you may believe that you are free, all of us today are but one step away from Guantanamo. As recently as the 1990s, I can recall that there were moments when Clinton seemed to suggest that there were some things that his administration could not do. Today I’m not so sure that I can recall any government official pleading the constraints of law or the constraints of reality to what can and cannot be done. No aspect of life is untouched by government intervention, and often it takes forms we do not readily see. All of healthcare is regulated, but so is every bit of our food, transportation, clothing, household products, and even private relationships. Mussolini himself put his principle this way: “All within the State, nothing outside the State, nothing against the State.” He also said: “The keystone of the Fascist doctrine is its conception of the State, of its essence, its functions, and its aims. For Fascism the State is absolute, individuals and groups relative.” I submit to you that this is the prevailing ideology in the United States today. This nation, conceived in liberty, has been kidnapped by the fascist state. Point 2. Government is a de facto dictatorship based on the leadership principle. I wouldn’t say that we truly have a dictatorship of one man in this country, but we do have a form of dictatorship of one sector of government over the entire country. The executive branch has spread so dramatically over the last century that it has become a joke to speak of checks and balances. What the kids learn in civics class has nothing to do with reality. The executive state is the state as we know it, all flowing from the White House down. The role of the courts is to enforce the will of the executive. The role of the legislature is to ratify the policy of the executive. Further, this executive is not really about the person who seems to be in charge. The president is only the veneer, and the elections are only the tribal rituals we undergo to confer some legitimacy on the institution. In reality, the nation-state lives and thrives outside any “democratic mandate.” Here we find the power to regulate all aspects of life and the wicked power to create the money necessary to fund this executive rule. As for the leadership principle, there is no greater lie in American public life than the propaganda we hear every four years about how the new president/messiah is going to usher in the great dispensation of peace, equality, liberty, and global human happiness. The idea here is that the whole of society is really shaped and controlled by a single will — a point that requires a leap of faith so vast that you have to disregard everything you know about reality to believe it. And yet people do. The hope for a messiah reached a fevered pitch with Obama’s election. The civic religion was in full-scale worship mode — of the greatest human who ever lived or ever shall live. It was a despicable display. Another lie that the American people believe is that presidential elections bring about regime change. This is sheer nonsense. The Obama state is the Bush state; the Bush state was the Clinton state; the Clinton state was the Bush state; the Bush state was the Reagan state. We can trace this back and back in time and see overlapping appointments, bureaucrats, technicians, diplomats, Fed officials, financial elites, and so on. Rotation in office occurs not because of elections but because of mortality. Point 3. Government administers a capitalist system with an immense bureaucracy. The reality of bureaucratic administration has been with us at least since the New Deal, which was modeled on the planning bureaucracy that lived in World War I. The planned economy — whether in Mussolini’s time or ours — requires bureaucracy. Bureaucracy is the heart, lungs, and veins of the planning state. And yet to regulate an economy as thoroughly as this one is today is to kill prosperity with a billion tiny cuts. This doesn’t necessarily mean economic contraction, at least not right away. But it definitely means killing off growth that would have otherwise occurred in a free market. So where is our growth? Where is the peace dividend that was supposed to come after the end of the Cold War? Where are the fruits of the amazing gains in efficiency that technology has afforded? It has been eaten by the bureaucracy that manages our every move on this earth. The voracious and insatiable monster here is called the Federal Code that calls on thousands of agencies to exercise the police power to prevent us from living free lives. It is as Bastiat said: the real cost of the state is the prosperity we do not see, the jobs that don’t exist, the technologies to which we do not have access, the businesses that do not come into existence, and the bright future that is stolen from us. The state has looted us just as surely as a robber who enters our home at night and steals all that we love. Point 4. Producers are organized into cartels in the way of syndicalism. Syndicalist is not usually how we think of our current economic structure. But remember that syndicalism means economic control by the producers. Capitalism is different. It places by virtue of market structures all control in the hands of the consumers. The only question for syndicalists, then, is which producers are going to enjoy political privilege. It might be the workers, but it can also be the largest corporations. In the case of the United States, in the last three years, we’ve seen giant banks, pharmaceutical firms, insurers, car companies, Wall Street banks and brokerage houses, and quasi-private mortgage companies enjoying vast privileges at our expense. They have all joined with the state in living a parasitical existence at our expense. This is also an expression of the syndicalist idea, and it has cost the US economy untold trillions and sustained an economic depression by preventing the postboom adjustment that markets would otherwise dictate. The government has tightened its syndicalist grip in the name of stimulus. |

California and Bust
It is starting already.....in California
The financial crisis deepens – many government services people have come to rely on will stop. The government simply won't collect enough tax revenue to pay the pensions, benefits, and salaries of government employees. States and municipalities will declare bankruptcy. Huge cutbacks will take place. Riots and protests (like those going on in New York City and Greece right now) will become commonplace.

Science getting settled on Global Warming
New, convincing evidence what causes global warming. It is caused by cosmic rays and the sun; not humans.
Research from the CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, one of the world’s largest centres for scientific research involving 60 countries and 8,000 scientists at more than 600 universities and national laboratories clearly demonstrates that it is cosmic rays from the sun. The CERN built a chamber that precisely recreated the Earth’s atmosphere. In this chamber, 63 CERN scientists from 17 European and American institutes have demonstrate that cosmic rays promote the formation of molecules that in Earth’s atmosphere can grow and seed clouds, the cloudier and thus cooler it will be. Because the sun’s magnetic field controls how many cosmic rays reach Earth’s atmosphere (the stronger the sun’s magnetic field, the more it shields Earth from incoming cosmic rays from space), the sun determines the temperature on Earth.

"The fact that we're here today to debate raising America's debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. Leadership means 'The buck stops here.' Instead, Washington is shifting the burden of bad choices today onto the backs of our children and grandchildren. America has a debt problem and a failure of leadership. Americans deserve better. I therefore intend to oppose the effort to increase America's debt limit." - Obama - 2006

The U.S. Monetary System and Descent into Fascism An Interview with Dr. Edwin Vieira - Casey Research
An interview with Dr. Edwin Vieira. The start of the interview is a question as to whether the current US monetary system is constitutional. He had a simple answer.
Edwin Vieira, Jr., holds four degrees from Harvard: A.B. (Harvard College), A.M. and Ph.D. (Harvard Graduate School of Arts and Sciences), and J.D. (Harvard Law School).
For more than thirty years, he has practiced law, with emphasis on constitutional issues. In the Supreme Court of the United States, he successfully argued or briefed the cases leading to the landmark decisions Abood v. Detroit Board of Education, Chicago Teachers Union v. Hudson, and Communications Workers of America v. Beck, which established constitutional and statutory limitations on the uses to which labor unions, in both the private and the public sectors, may apply fees extracted from nonunion workers as a condition of their employment.
He has written numerous monographs and articles in scholarly journals, and lectured throughout the county. His most recent work on money and banking is the two-volumePieces of Eight: The Monetary Powers and Disabilities of the United States Constitution(2002), the most comprehensive study in existence of American monetary law and history viewed from a constitutional perspective.
He is also the co-author (under a nom de plume) of the political novel CRA$HMAKER: A Federal Affaire (2000), a not-so-fictional story of an engineered crash of the Federal Reserve System, and the political upheaval it causes.
His latest book is: How to Dethrone the Imperial Judiciary... and Constitutional "Homeland Security," Volume One, The Nation in Arms.

US Opens Reserves to Release 30M Barrels of Oil
What! Unbelievable! This is not an emergency or crises. However maybe Obama thinks his poll numbers are too low therefore.... Whatever the reason, it is not a good one. This does tell me that the government is operating on more short term fixes. This does not look good for the future......confidence is falling faster and here I thought it could not move down much faster.....I'm wrong, too much of thinking it will be better....but NOT.

Piracy sails from high seas to C-suite Outside the Box - MarketWatch
See attached for article on the crimes by big government and business while the government says they are looking after the little guy. Wrong....read and think.
The crime is with big business and big government. Hand in hand they work together. A good example is
Raines while he was CEO at Fannie Mae. "Most of the crimes Raines committed while at Fannie Mae were paltry, petty graft. He demanded illegal accounting changes that inflated the company's earnings. As a result, he received huge amounts of fraudulent compensation – around $20 million per year. When his crimes were discovered, he resigned. Later, he agreed to a $3 million settlement with the government, which was paid by Fannie's insurance company. He also gave up $1.8 million in stock and options (which were later worth nothing in any case.) If you rob a bank, you go to jail. But if you steal $50 million-$100 million from the government's mortgage bank, you keep it all. That's New American Socialism.
Raines was disgraced by his own enormous greed and lack of character. But those crimes are merely an afterthought to the real damage he brought to our economy.
Raines was instrumental in building Fannie's mortgage portfolio to gargantuan proportions. And he was responsible for the company's move into subprime loans.
Rather than lend money to homeowners, Fannie's strategy was to buy mortgages from banks, which allowed them to banks to more homeowners. Fannie Mae also guaranteed mortgage loans across the industry, which allowed more private capital to become available. The theory was this made housing more affordable. It didn't. It only allowed banks to make risk-free loans, which led to vastly higher home prices, bigger banking profits, and huge profits for Fannie Mae at least temporarily. The downside was the whole system was a charade... a giant con job. Fannie never had the capital required to guarantee the loans it bought and insured. When the bubble inevitably popped, the U.S. taxpayers ended up footing the $500 billion bill." Source: Stansberry & Associates Investment Research - June 2011
Did the government programs and Raines at Fannie Mae make housing affordable? Answer is no....it only inflated the housing costs for all people. Now people are losing their houses thanks be to the big government program. Big government and big business are for the elite; they want to control and do control the masses. But notwithstanding what they say, they hurt the small and little guys......the serfs. Nothing really changes, history repeats, but the ways are just bit different.

Open Letter to Barack Obama
Mr. Barack Obama
President of the Executive Branch
United States Government
Washington, DC
Dear Mr. Obama:
In your recent interview with NBC News you explained that your policies would promote more private-sector job creation were it not for (as you put it) “some structural issues with our economy where a lot of businesses have learned to become much more efficient with a lot fewer workers. You see it when you go to a bank and you use an ATM, you don’t go to a bank teller, or you go to the airport and you’re using a kiosk instead of checking in at the gate.”
With respect, sir, you’re complaining about the source of our prosperity:innovation and the increases it causes in worker productivity.
With no less justification – but with no more validity – any of your predecessors might have issued complaints similar to yours. Pres. Grant, for example, might have grumbled in 1873 about “some structural issues with our economy where a lot of businesses have learned to become much more efficient with a lot fewer workers. You see it when you go to a bank that uses a modern safe and so employs fewer armed guards than before, or when you travel on trains which, compared to stage coaches, transport many more passengers using fewer workers.”
Or Pres. Nixon might have groused in 1973 about such labor-saving innovation: “You see it when you step into an automatic elevator that doesn’t require an elevator operator, or when you observe that polio vaccination keeps people alive and active without the aid of nurses and all those workers who were once usefully employed making iron-lung machines, crutches, and wheelchairs.”
Do you, Pres. Obama, really wish to suggest that the innovations you blame for thwarting your fiscal policies are “structural issues” that ought to be corrected?
Sincerely,
Donald J. Boudreaux

It's MPD, the marginal productivity of debt. Basically what it is, is that has debt increases, its marginal "productivity" decreases. Reason being is that the compounding effect of interest / money is not sustainable.

The hidden costs of dirt-cheap money
Yup! That is right, we are paying for the corporate bail outs. You know the companies and banks that are too big to fail. Those guys. Great to be working for them as well. Great bonuses paid. Then, it is great that one of the CEOs of the companies saved by the government (of course really by the taxpayers), had the guts to recommend that gasoline taxes be increased on the taxpayers by $1/gal. Naturally, that is only to help save the economy. With news like this, who in their right mind would be spending. One has to be very careful, given the government does not know what it is doing and what they are doing are screwing things up. Like Bush said, "how did we get here". Hey, those guys in government still have not figured that out, in fact have messed it up more so, making the correction, which will come much more painful. So, tighten up and get ready, the costs of the running away government spending, will be collected.

Three alternatives for the next 20 years.
Think one item is missing with the attached analysis....that is the middle east and Israel.
That will have a significant impact on the world. Think it will be a rough ride for all. Get ready.
CNN Poll: 48% Say Depression Will Strike America
Think all of the people are sleeping; they do not know what is going on.
1/2 think depression will happen; the other half say not.... but the answer is.....we are there now!
Things will get much worst. But no one is asking the question why and what we need to do.
What is the answer?
The leaders all deny what is happening....it is not just economics, it is the choices that the people have made.
It is just going to get more costly.
Anyone with understanding? knowledge? experience? leadership? doing right?
Wiener shows the condition that Americak is in....and the people accept? big disappointment, but not a surprise.
There are answers to the issue, to the question, but America, is not ready yet to address the problem yet.
So....big surprise to come which will be an ouch! or maybe a big ouch for all and then the wonder why.
We will be all like G W Bush....asking the question again how did we get here?
Tell you.....GWB, we got here because of you and your buddy Obama with your big govt policies. Thanks a lot guys!
