The American People are the Big Losers In The Cliff Deal
The "fiscal cliff" deal will raise taxes for 77% of the American public.
It will add $4 trillion dollars to the deficit over the next 10 years.
It will create a drag on the economy equal to 1% of the gross domestic product.
It creates uncertainty in the following areas:
A) the debt limit, B) the sequestered amounts, C) cuts in entitlement spending, D) additional taxes and don't forget E) the President needs another Continuing Resolution (CR) to keep the lights on.
Blackrock's Larry Fink is correct when he says:
The American People are the Big Losers In The Cliff Deal.
Who benefits? The deal gives Puerto Rican rum makers, Nascar, banks like Goldman Sachs, and General Electric and other big companies tax subsidies. History repeats again and again.
The entire "fiscal cliff" is a ruse to fleece the people. Once again, the government has pimped us out.

The market doesn't operate on gold. The market is the very core of the grow-or-die System. Of fucking course they're biased to it!
When the curtain comes down on this illusion I doubt that anyone will find it enjoyable; but know this: down it will come (nature will ensure that this happens).
Tick tock Tick Tock Tic Tock
Tick Tock indeed.

I'm familiar with meadows high up in the Cascades.
Patriots. Make this go viral. Encourage all your friends to pass it along until it gets to one million people.
The American Spring is coming soon.
Here are your orders from central command. The strategy.

And when all the "bad guys" have been shot dead, then what?
Take over the grow-or-die Ponzi system?
There's more of a systemic problem/issue that a bunch of bad guys (hasn't anyone learned this from the manipulations that govts do of scaring us with hobgoblins?).
Owens may know guns, but he has NO "solution" for our coming resource shortages (or, maybe he does? [and this is distinct from what govts would do, how?]).
Isn't there a bit of cognitive dissonance going on here? I mean, it's 2nd Amendment centric (not that that's a bad thing) and the LEADING organization's head -NRA's Wayne LaPierre [isn't that a French name?]- is/was calling for using armed guards and police in public schools. Yeah, the right to have MORE militarization!
BTW - I take no orders from anyone. I'll stand by my neighbors and community.
Corporations won and individuals lost. Period. Just like the James Caan flick "Rollerball."

After you read the link above, just think of Ruby Ridge and Waco.
For the past 4 years - gun sales have averaged about 16 million a year. 19 million in 2012. You cannot get .223 or even 9 mm or mags.
We are way beyond Ruby Ridge and Waco now. Oh and we have not forgotten the name Lon Horiuchi.

Thanks for reminding us.
He and/or family members shouldnt be too hard to find by a determined individual.
If he isnt killed resisting a citizen's arrest then he can be tried by a citizen's tribunal.
I wonder if these goobermint hotshots, while patiently waiting for an opportunity to murder a free citizen of the Republic from 500 yards away, would even suspect that they themselves might one day be in the crosshairs of a similarly armed citizen patriot. That might come as quite a shock to some of those cowboys: The cognitive moment or, if not that, the actual impact.
George Washington, walking point - i almost feel sorry for the enemy scouts
WE were designed to be the losers. Where has everbody been? WE are the slaves to the special assholes for centuries.
But, if you are smart enuff, you can feel special and live well. The fantasy is meeting reality.
THe life of lowered expectations.
one other casualty
Tea Party is no more, they have lost any and all credibility except for the 15 members who voted against Boner today
The Rinos (shits like Rove, Bushes, Neocons, et al), Dems and newsmedia (TV and Hollywood) wanted the Tea Party nuked. Conservatives need to get that NWO c**k Karl Rove - the F away from them. He is a POS.
The "Tea Party" are just average Americans who want the govt off their back.
While I agree, in part, that the Tea Party (like OWS) is more aligned with the interests of the middle class or as you put it, "just average Americans", the political leadership comprises a millionaires club who are more concerned with and aligned with big business than the average Joe. The aforemention fucks in your post can go, well...

Rather than Tea Party focus on the Club for Growth candidates. They have a failure rate of about 5% or less. That is where I have been putting my donation dollars. Their candidates happen to generally be good on liberty, guns as weel as taxes because unlike the major parties they tend to back sane candidates who dwell in the real world.
That 2% is what we were paying before the temporary tax cuts.
Most ZH whiners are always saying how SS is underfunded.
Now if we remove the $113K "cap" and defund whatever programs were started with the money stolen from SS, we'll be in good shape.
Reform Welfare before you steal MY savings.
"Now if we remove the $113K "cap" and defund whatever programs were started with the money stolen from SS, we'll be in good shape."
SS is no longer some sort of trust fund with actual money in it, it's a pass-through.
People can fantasize all they want, but the reality is that demographics will crush SS. Like everything else in the Growth Ponzi, SS grew and grew and grew... while the planet's resources dwindled.
Oh! And "your" "savings?" You have a savings ACCOUNT, denominated in USDs, which are ISSUED by the Federal Reserve.
Like I was saying, people are free to fantasize all they want... I have no illusions of "retirement."
Retirement....PHHFFFTTT!
Gave that notion up back in the 80's.
I still see myself as a desiccated corpse on the side of some desert dirt road.
Except for...ah yes.
Isn't it remarkable there is no such thing as a TP dim-wit-crat? When I was growing up there was such a thing as a fiscally respsonsible democrat, quite a few of them actually.
I count ZERO of those now.
