America: A Government Out Of Control
"A government big enough to give you everything you want, is strong enough to take everything you have"
Thomas Jefferson
Something odd and not quite as planned happened as America grew from its "City on a Hill" origins, on its way to becoming the world's superpower: government grew. A lot. In fact, the government, which by definition does not create any wealth but merely reallocates it based on the whims of a select few, has transformed from a virtually invisible bystander in the economy, to the largest single employer, and a spending behemoth whose annual cash needs alone are nearly $4 trillion a year, and where tax revenues no longer cover even half the outflows. One can debate why this happened until one is blue in the face: the allures of encroaching central planning, the law of large numbers, and the corollary of corruption, inefficiency and greed, cheap credit, the transition to a welfare nanny state as America's population grew older, sicker and lazier, you name it. The reality is that the reasons for government's growth do not matter as much as realizing where we are, and deciding what has to be done: will America's central planners be afforded ever more power to decide the fates of not only America's population, but that of the world, or will the people reclaim the ideals that the founders of this once great country had when they set off on an experiment, which is now failing with every passing year?
As the following video created by New America Now, using content by Brandon Smith whose work has been featured extensively on the pages of Zero Hedge, notes, "we tend to view government as an inevitability of life, but the fact is government is not a force of nature. It is an imperfect creation of man and it can be dismantled by man just as easily as it can be established." Unfortunately, the realization that absolute power corrupts absolutely, and absolute central planning leads to epic catastrophes without fail, seems a long way away: most seem content with their lot in life, with lies that their welfare money is safe, even as the future is plundered with greater fury and aggression every passing year, until one day the ability to transfer wealth (benefiting primarily the uber rich, to the detriment of the middle class which is pillaged on an hourly basis), from the future to the present is gone, manifesting in either a failed bond auction or hyperinflation. The timing or shape of the transition itself is irrelevant, what is certain is that America is now on collision course with certain collapse unless something changes. And one of the things that has to change for hope in the great American dream to be restored, is the role, composition and motivations of government, all of which have mutated to far beyond what anyone envisioned back in 1776. Because America is now saddled with a Government Out Of Control.
Watch the two clips below to understand just how and why we have gotten to where we are. Also watch it to, as rhetorically asked by the narrator, prompt us to question whether the government we now have is still useful to us and what kind of powers it should be allowed to wield.

Look buddy, what I was referring to was that Max didn't know if people were sitting on their ass ranting or actually doing something to defend freedom (and ranting). Max said, "You guys aren't standing up." All I'm saying is that Max has no idea what ZH posters are doing.
You have no evidence, one way or the other, as to anything else they may do. #logicfail
Well then let me say it clearly, they won't do SHIT.
There will be NOTHING even approaching a revolution, at ANY time.
Got that all you dumbass pseudo-patriots out there?
You will do NOTHING to turn America back to the Constitution.
Got that? NOTHING. ZERO.
You'll wait and wait and wait and wait and wait till America slides into full-on communism, then they'll round you all up and shoot you.
I get so damn tired of hearing these pseudo-patriot tough guys say "Oh yea, you just wait, we're gonna take back America".
BULL-FUCKING-SHIT.
They'll round up your sorry asses, march you out to a big ditch, put a bullet in your sorry heads, and dump you over on top of your dead pseudo-patriot tough guy friends.
Welcome to the People's Republic of Amerika ...comrades.
Max Fischer
So... Maxxy... what the fuck are you doing ? Oh.... ranting on a blog.
Don't let your impertinent, snobby, quasi-intellectual nose get too far in the air. It may cause a nose bleed.
Unless, of course, some ZH follower decides to bloody it for you.
I'm not the one who wants the Fed or the government to collapse. You guys are the ones who want to "die fighting" instead of living lives of supposedly slavery and servitude. "Occupy Wall Street" was the closest thing to revolting against Wall Street that we've had, and you guys spent all your time mocking them because Faux News told you to.

Max its obvious at this point you wear pink polo shirts and immaculate khaki's while sipping juleps. Thanks for the encouragement now sit back and let the men talk.
"let the men talk"
I do believe that was what he was referring to originally.
Everybody's Talking At Me
I don't hear a word they're saying
only the echoes of my mind. . .
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uBemzu1Fchk
Yes, I picked up on that subtlety and since I cannot reach through the internet to throttle him talk will need to suffice.
lol, k, carry on then!
No, I dont watch Fox. I mock them because they operate under the fundamental misconception that by further empowering and expanding government they would somehow rein in an out of control financial sector. They arent separate entities, they are symbionts and that is no more going to succeed then the belief that feeding one head of a hydra will miraculously kill another head.
Double post...blah.
It's called brainstorming. We are thinking things through. You don't undertake effectuating change on this massive (not to mention somewhat dangerous) scale without thinking it through first.
There's always a hothead in the bunch wanting to run out and do stupid stuff w/o thinking it through. Is that hothead you?
What's your hurry, Max?
Before two Heelers fight they spend quite a bit of time growling and baring their fangs. That's their way of saying, "Back off if you don't want to get disembowled."
Just consider the blog rants you read on here to be the growling stage. The fight will come in due time.

Cute. Just remember, victorious warriors win first and then go to war, while defeated warriors go to war first and then seek to win.
hahahhahh,
thanks for the visual!
I spent a summer with a blue heeler's company - walking her was a hoot - doing figure eights between your feet as you go, nipping your heels - herd dogs to the bone. . . the upper lip curling and growling was very expressive, and impressive. . .
I have a kelpie and she's very much the same, back goes up and everything.
Looks like Max Fuckhead fischer gave himself a greenie.
Loser.
You have no idea what we do in our freetime fighting the powers that be, quite presumptuous of ya.
I believe ZHers are much smarter than CM is thinking. Big majority of ZHers have already stopped spending for unnecessary stuff and started Living simple life. They are riding bicycle for local trips. They are cooking at home. Canceled their Cable and stopped watching MSM. I am sure they always planning to spend less than they spent previous month. You can kill this monster with hunger and there will be no blood on your hands too.
erm, did you mean to add a /sarc tag to your statement?
a quick perusal of most threads will confirm a majority of ZH posters watch MSM, including Fox News, listen to Rush Limbaugh & Glen Beck, still bank at TBTF banks AND carry their plastic cards, and I seriously doubt more than a handful "ride bicycles" although they mock the "hippies" that do. . .
and if you'd like to sample their smarts you should head to the "Face of Authoritarian Environmentalism" and check out their "arguments."
http://www.zerohedge.com/news/guest-post-face-authoritarian-environmenta...
sorry zerozulu, not a great description of the demographics here. . .
(though some have excellent musical tastes, and a few are very witty *nods*)
Well, I don't have a car, and I do ride my bike a lot (and the bus, I admit). I have less than $10 in my TBTF account, which I keep active because there are a bunch of things you can't do with cash. I don't watch Fox News. I don't have cable TV (cable modem though; need teh intratubes). I don't eat out, I don't have an i-anything, and I don't have a Facebook or Twitspace account.
As soon as it warms up, I'll be planting a garden. I'll still buy food at the grocery store, but I'll grow what I can.
Generalizations are for saps.
well Frank, I was replying to someone who felt the majority of ZH'rs are as you describe yourself, and in my observation, this is not true at all.
if you feel that you are "like" most of the people posting here, that's cool with me - but I hate to tell ya, your description is closer to my own way of being in the world than most who have accounts here, just sayin' - this comes through my reading of many threads over a period of time.
saps are for syrups - peace.

Gee, I didn't get a diaper in SERE, just a tin can. But they did give us hoods, though I don't think that was supposed to be a good thing. Stress positions? Unpleasant, but survivable.
When TSHTF, you can bet they will escalate to real torture.
oh, they already do, but you might have to listen to people who don't look like you to hear about it.

Buy only what you need. Become as self-sufficient as possible. Do not borrow. Let Government and Central Banks drown in their cesspool of debt. And stand back.

Right before BHO was Erected, I was planning on buying two new vehicles( I keep mine a long time), and a new big screen( one I have also getting old). Since he was Erected, I decided not to spend one DIME except on preparative items, and gear.I refuse to participate in helping him get relected. That would have been a large chunk of change out of pocket,now with the take down of America coming to a head, I know I made the right decision,and the gut feeling of what his actions were going to be, turned out even worse than I feared with more to come.so, these new laws and regulations and orders all come directly from BHO, and prior to BHO you were following the old orders of the previous prez to "go shopping"? Dick 'n' Bush, they really got the ball rollin' with the Patriot Act and Homeland Security & wars, but hey, who's counting.
and "Erected" - are you practising your mock chinese??? seven up votes, well done!
Yeah but those were his kind of people so it's ok.
Careful, my friend, I'm sure your post qualifies as Dangerous CrimeThought

Conrad Murray
While I agree with you in spirit, Conrad, unfortunately, your solution is a perfect recipe for complete anarchy. The country would end up looking like Mogadishu pretty damn quickly. Rational folks will not let that happen.
Reality is a harsh master. For example... I, and many others, would like to see Obama impeached and thrown out of office. Has he committed impeachable offenses? Of course! Many times! But will he ever be impeached? No way in hell - there are too many spineless congresscritters to ever allow that. Would the military ever rise up and remove him from office? Again, no way... too many "perfumed" generals and admirals. It seems once they reach star rank, they all become butt-kissing lap-dogs to the politicians to enhance their further career promotions.
No, our only practical chance at saving the country is the ballot box. Many of the congressional invertabrates were thrown out in the 2010 election. I suspect many more will go in 2012. Hopefully, The One will also be regurgitated onto the ash-heap of history at the same time. We cannot allow him to ever get a second term. His open-mike words with Medvedev only hint to how lawless he will become once re-election is no longer an impediment to his actions. If he gets re-elected, then I think we would truely see Mogadishu, USA.
"No, our only practical chance at saving the country is the ballot box"
what does ballot box means?
A ballot box is where a congressman keeps his bribes when running for office.
Originally, it meant "the suggestion box for slaves".
Now, in the Diebold era, it means "the data collection mechanism to determine which slaves are in urgent need of more re-education".
I appreciate your perspective, but we're way past voting. Watch this...a few times if need be:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JEzY2tnwExs
Vote with a bullet or vote with your feet; everything else is masturbation. Hope to see you in the streets this summer!
I'm going to give the elections in Nov a chance. They could be the "start" we need. And granted, much needs to be done to turn this fucked-up government around. But, if O'Bastard gets re-elected, all bets are off. Then, I just may join you!
Good grief! So you still harbour the illusion that TPTB only control one of the two candidates and one of the two parties? Arfff arfff!
so you were fine with the amrkn government up until Obama, amirite?
US General Accuses Bush Administration of War Crimeshttp://archive.truthout.org/article/us-general-accuses-bush-administrati...
were you even awake until the current president was installed??
George Washington, in letter toJ. Bowen, Rhode Island,
Jan. 9, 1787 "Paper money has had the effect in your state that it will ever have, to ruin commerce, oppress the honest, and open the door to every species of fraud and injustice."
Thomas Jefferson toJohn Taylor, 1816 “I sincerely believe ... that banking establishments are more dangerous than standing armies, and that the principle of spending money to be paid by posterity under the name of funding is but swindling futurity on a large scale.”
Daniel Webster,speech in the Senate, 1833 “We are in danger of being overwhelmed with irredeemable paper, mere paper, representing not gold nor silver; no sir, representing nothing but broken promises, bad faith, bankrupt corporations, cheated creditors and a ruined people.”
The Declaration of Independence 1776: All men are created equal and there are certain unalienable rights that governments should never violate. These rights include the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. When a government fails to protect those rights, it is not only the right, but also the duty of the people to overthrow that government. In its place, the people should establish a government that is designed to protect those rights.
George Washington had experienced the collapse of the paper Continental dollar.
"... it took a wagon load of dollars to buy a wagon load of provisions"
Oh, what did those guys know...they're just a bunch of dead white guys.
Today we have Pelosi, and Frank, and Romney, and Obama,...Clinton, Bush, Clinton, Bush, Santorum, Boxer, et al.... to speak for the people. Doesn't that make you feel...
The future's dead white guys, along with a chick and a moolie thrown in to show how progressive we've become.
"God gave me my money. I believe the power to make money is a gift from God ... to be developed and used to the best of our ability for the good of mankind. Having been endowed with the gift I possess, I believe it is my duty to make money and still more money and to use the money I make for the good of my fellow man according to the dictates of my conscience."
John D. Rockefeller, interview in 1905. - Peter Collier and David Horowitz, The Rockefellers, an American Dynasty, chapter 3, p.48 (1976)
As an annotation to the quote, it also says: "Rockefeller assumed giving to charity was a Christian duty, and did so throughout his life. Later in life he began to "have the semimystical feeling that he had been especially selected as the frail vessel for the great fortune.""
Seems to be a common ailment among the uber-wealthy.
they're special.
that's a great quote find geekgrrl - tailor made to show how invoking the "chosen by god" story is used to ride roughshod over anyone or anything that gets in the way of their desires.
and amrka has some real history with this concept. . .
Congress, 2008. "we vote no on the 800 billion!" (stock market falls a thousand points the next day.) Congress Day 2: "we vote yes on the bailouts. YESSSS!"
Quick, whats the diff btw USA and China?
nothing..........
Disagree, Bro. At least the Chinese government admits they are communist.
4 year plans vs 5 year plans
In the US, everything comes down to dog-eat-dog. In China, it's the other way around.
whats the diff btw USA and China?
Well, for one thing, I don't think China would have allowed an influx of American goods into their market to put their people out of work. And I don't think China would have financed the build-up of a dangerous competitor, both economically and militarily.
And other than those 2 teeny-weeny things, the answer to your question is: not much....
the chinese have McRonalds
the money power that is ruining the US and has essentially captured the US government is moving to China and they are moving from the US after they've sucked every bit they can get out of the US.
The Founding Fathers had the means to define power but openly eschewed it.
Until there are leaders of the same ilk, there will always be slowly degradation to central planning & control.
Wherever there are leaders, there is central planning and control. There, FIFY!
Be your own leader! Develop and be part of a local community working for the security and betterment of your local community.
Don't rely on some small group 2,000 miles away -- whether in DC or Brussels or Ottawa or Canberra or Peking -- to "look after" your community's welfare or interests!
Happy Easter!
Same to you!
Decentralize Bitchez!
Happy Easter everyone. May you find whatever rebirth you're looking for, be it government, country, wealth, humility, faith, or just more peace and solitude.
TPTB know the average US soldier will not shoot on unarmed citizens, have to assume the plan is to employ Blackwater, XE whatever the name is today as enforcers since they could careless and would enjoy murder. The purchase of 450 million hollow tip bullets by DHS is certainly a precursor along with NDAA, Fema Camps, no free speech zones, national resource (confiscation) and who knows what is next.
The sickest part is the votes for these bills, the only thing these idiots (dems, repubs) can agree on is a police state.

The purchase of 450 million hollow tip bullets by DHS
These are common use ammo for nearly ALL LE depts in the USA, and remember they are just handgun rounds.
This is far more worrisome than them having pea shooter rounds...............
Bill HR 347..............check it out, and figure out WTF we need these for.
They are going screw around until an internal war is started.Who knows, maybe that's what they want.............
IF they think they are preparing to stop one, they have really missed the mark.
TPTB know the average US soldier will not shoot on unarmed citizens
I would be less sure about what soldiers and police won't do. In times of war they have incinerated/destroyed whole cities of "enemy" civilians. As for beating and shooting protestors, well ...
Soldiers and police would primarily be tasked with rounding up "suspected" dissidents and activists, and they already do that. Division of labor removes responsibility at each step of the process. 1) round them up, resistors must be traitors 2) "courts" find the detainees "guilty" or at least suspected of becoming guilty based on classified information 3) turn those "guilty" over to the tender mercies of prison guards at Gitmo and elsewhere.
Sadly, the .001% has armed and convinced a sizable percentage of the lower and middle classes to protect that .001%. They have also convinced a sizable percentage to maintain surveillance of everybody else.
I'm with you rwe2late - the "average US soldier" has shown that following orders is rather high up on their list, and they certainly fire on unarmed citizens in other nationstates - all those who give the orders need do is "re-brand" the target with any number of fancy descriptives - terrorist, activist, whatever - and order will be carried out.
c'mon people, even HERE behind computer screens, there are plenty of people willing to "kill" their fellow citizens, getting "permission" and a weapon will be chaotic, to say the least.
then, of course, there's that reciprocal arrangement with Canada to trade troops in case of civil unrest. . .
I think the logic can be extended even further. The typical US soldier will assist the unarmed citizen. Blackwater, Xie, whatever TSA fuckstick will be swept away like a cork in the tide. The tremendous mass that is the American people is overcoming the inertia that has kept it still for a long time. Once the tremendous mass gets moving it will be unstoppable.
got links?
Katrina & New Orleans says different, as do many other examples. . .
If the ballon goes up just who the hell is dumb enough to be unarmed? In essence as long as I look like a sheep and baaa like a sheep I am okay? I am pretty sure I can noodle a better plan, thanks though. There is not enough XE to secure two major cities. The people must be cowed first it is the non-negotiable factor.
Isn't it swell living today?
The weather is darn nice today. Has been all year actually. How is it in your neck of the woods?
I live in central cali by the coast, this time of year gets cool and foggy, but I like it! Currently 60 F.
May you live in interesting times, round-eye.
The grand delusion that is government and in America that the Founding Fathers created a government devoted to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness continues to exist and remain the only option for civilized society- that is how well we have been programmed.
One, government is minority rule of the majority for the benefit of the minority. There have never been exceptions to this rule.
Two, banking is a criminal operation that adds neither value nor production of goods to an economy. They exist for the operation of transfering the wealth of the majority to the minority- mostly, the bankers. This is enabled by the institution of government and of course, the control of the currency, ala the FED.
Three, the founding fathers were merchantilists that believed in a superior class to rule the masses. They just wanted to be the ruling class versus the ruling class of England. When power bequethed under the Articles of Confederation proved inadequate, they created the Constitution to guarantee that power, especially through taxation. The original Republic is structured to minimize democracy and protect the wealthy class from their excesses. Whether you look at the Executive, Senate or Judicial branch. The Bill of Rights was supposed to balance these powers, but have, over time, been eviscerated.
Four, the foundation of civilzation is private property and contracts. These two legal entities and the wisdom of the society are sufficient for all the needs of a society.
Wel said Sean.
ori
Ok that was good. Now what? They may kill us with boredom if we have to wait for Portugal, Italy and Spain to be bailed out before they set off the first false flag.
The best shot was the absolute tyranny bottle. They looked so good all locked up together in there.
I would like to see a video of how to apply all the new draconian laws to financial terrorists and treasonous politicians. Because when the change in power does come all those horrible laws can first be used to round up the scum that authored, voted for and signed them into law.
Financial terrorism is terrorism.
I'm ready to start passing literature out at the local chamber of commerce about Agenda 21.
Happy Easter
Happy Easter ZH posters and contributors of this site, I leave you with these words..
Ronald Reagan - "We the People"
2010 – We the People message
The dire desperation is so blatantly obvious. The more this administration pushes, the easier it is for everyone to see the illusion. Carry on, Mr. Presidential Train Wreak-in-Chief..
Resources when and if left to their own natural path will diffuse and move toward non income producing activity.
Managing for results requires that a concentrated focus be intent on placing resources only on income producing resources.
90% of the results come from the first 10% of the resources, the remaining 10% of results typically use of the remaining resources in the form of efforts or costs as a by product of the initial endevour.
What needs to be done?
Complete removal of wasteless efforts, and a complete realignment toward income producing activity.
In fact, anything that is working well...that is where all focus and effort should be placed upon at once.
We must focus on designing the garments of the future and refuse to patch the garment of yesterday.
Live in the now and build toward the future.
Happy Easter ZH
WRONG!!!
WE need to round up all the guilty scum and HANG them for Treason! not only against America! but against ALL of Man Kind!
then as we are hanging the Scum!! every day at dinner time in High Def! on TV.. we need to be fixing Americas Infrastructure!
Then we need to claw back every penny from every Tax Loop Hole / Dodging scum Bag that is still living! and then Hang them for Treason.
All the jobs that Moved Off Shore with Tax Credits, Subsides and Tax Loop Holes! GUESS WHAT???? Claw Back and Hang them too!
The Top 0.0001% or maybe a little more are ALL GUILTY of Treason! and their Families are as well!
and when the UBER!! Rich! + the Government + Madison Ave + Wall Street have stirred the pot enough to cause the drama they strive to create everyday!
I for one am not hunting any poor people!
I am hunting the top 0.001%.. and if all of you were smart.. you would do your best to ignore the poor people and the drama that was forced down their throats in Heavy rotation on Corporate Owned Media and Stick too taking it to the real trash!
The Uber Rich want the population to have a decline!! See Google for Bill Gates, Rockefeller and / or whomever blows up your skirt going on and fucking on about it!
So! the Poor will be spooled up to murder the poor! And then the UBER Rich / Government Lobby Whores Owned by the UBER Rich will have to dis-arm the Poor! For their own safety! And be the Hero’s they really are for helping the poor, again!
Hurry call the Jewish History Book Publishers! Let them Manage the Process!
I would say wake up.. but why? The truth! The numerical facts are out there.. in plain sight.. just no one lies bad news.. why read the truth when the lies are so much easier to digest and available in heavy doses I mean Rotation. And you will feel so much better after the lies wash over you 4 times every 15 minutes or 16 times an hour! On all the Corporate owned media channels!
Programmed for happiness! Or is it programmed for the violence that is coming? Either way! All the killing or MOST! Of the killing will go on outside my gated community so I don’t care! There really are to many of those animals running around any way.. better that they kill themselves off! Don’t you think?

JW - in humble opinion, the financial mess we all watch here at ZH thanks to the brilliant work of the Tylers is just a sideshow to the bigger issues playing out. I would sum it up by calling it a cheap energy, industrial age polulation explosion that is coming to an end.
That MIT paper from 1972 that has been getting some buzz lately (Limits to Growth) ought to get some more attention.
Anyhow, human behavior (mostly selfish and shortsighted) is not going to do the right things to avoid a calamity - not individually and certainly not in groups or as nations. That is a given. So, we are doomed to have change forced upon us. The big questions are about how it all goes down... timing, etc. Viewed from this perspective, I think the world looks quite different than when viewed from just financial terms. The big boys know what is at stake and I will bet are playing a longer term game aimed at managing the coming paradigm shift in human history. Staying on top though it all is the goal of course. Same as it ever was.
You will like this then! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wYuLjGQQ-jg
I agree that Cheap Energy is why the World is being wound down..
the problem is.. America is Winding Down.. Europe is Winding Down.. China is Winding Down..
Everyone is down shifting..
there is more PAPER (FIAT) floating around the World now than EVER! before.. so why is the World stalling?
Maybe the Saudi Reserves that have not budged in the past 50 years are not quite up to snuff! LOL!
I would add to your Cheap Fuel Pitch that.. Population Control.. comes into play.. 1 American equals the amount of energy 5 3rd World personalities.
and on the MIT note.. MIT just released the dooms day count down.. white paper. 2030!

offered to the MIT community by the SAPiens (an assemblage of architects, planners, and historians in SA+P – the School of Architecture and Planning)
MIT 2030 represents a bold beginning for a comprehensive plan that anticipates the renovation of MIT’s aging facilities and produces a map of its future research priorities and expansion needs. As emphasized by its original authors, MIT 2030 “is a process, not a plan.” A plan is now needed, one focused on the core educational priorities of the Institute rather than driven by real-estate development paradigms. We advocate that the administration take full advantage of the professional and research expertise of its faculty, and open the MIT 2030 process to its community for wide-ranging input and needed modification. We know that this more transparent, collaborative, and open engagement works: such a process contributed to a smooth financial response to the world-wide economic crisis, and that kind of engagement will help convert the MIT 2030 “process” to a visionary plan.
The following questions purposefully do not add up to a single opinion, but weave together suggestions and concerns based on our research in design and planning. We urge consideration of community and housing issues, quality of life, and integration with regional plans that are not evident in the current MIT 2030 [web.mit.edu/mit2030] and Kendall Square Initiative [www.kendallsquareinitiative.org] Websites. We also advocate for an open and transparent process in formulating a viable plan for MIT’s future.

I forgot to say how M.I.T.'s 2030 push is all about Sustainability!
which to me SCREAMS Agenda 21.
I typed this especially for you. Hope it helps see the things I've gone threw.
Back when I was a young pup, formulating new plastic flame retardant recipes was my gig. Typically, you take a 3:1 ratio of antimony oxide [Sb2O4] and decabromodiphenyl oxide [DBDPO] to hit a UL/CSA standard. Often times, you could alter ratio depending on suppliers concentration levels. So the products go mainstream and everyone is making money until..
Some criminal declares antimony oxide price goes from $1.25/pound to $3.20/pound. All of my product costing models get thrown out the window. We knew the acting cartel thief group. What do we accomplish? We watch this thief group commit suicide and lose the Sb2O4 demand requirements. How you ask? We designed products to meet UL/CSA classification by using Magnesium hydroxide [Mg(OH)] and eliminating the need for Sb2O4. When the thief restored his market prices, our old product lines went back on line and we were grateful to have the other Mg(OH) revenue stream creating income.
This is how you bitch slap common criminals. I left this industry, because it was not going to make me get up every day till my retirement. The lab environment was just not for me. :)
Awwww. What are you atomizing now per chance?
When mental awareness hits you straight between the eyes, we can stay to you.. 'Awwww, do you finally understand by chance? I'm very sorry you’re a disable veteran. Thank you for serving our country.
The character script is the same, only the faces are different.
NAPOLEON - Disaster in Russia
My military veteran neighbor came to speak with me yesterday. We haven’t spoken in two years, always just a friendly wave acknowledgement.
Neighbor: I want to plant some trees near your property line. Is that OK?
Me: No problem
Neighbor: I took your advice, and have 6 months left to pay off my mortgage. I wanted to thank you for helping me understand that two years ago.
Me: Glad I could of helped you.
Me: Interestingly, I’m closing on a house in Marco Island next month.
Neighbor: What are you going to do with this house, sell it or rent it? What are you going to do with the rest of your properties?
Me: I haven’t decided what to do with the house next to you.
Neighbor: Marco Island is beautiful, what made you decide that location?
Me: My better half pushed me into the location. We have been fighting over this for two years. In today’s world, if/when things go bad, I won’t have to worry about safety. One road comes in & out of Marco Island. If that life line is broken, we’ll be in the Gulf of Mexico in under 5 minutes. All credit goes to my queen bee.
Neighbor: That email you gave me two years ago never worked, can I get it again?
Me: Sure, let me get that to you another time. Great talking with you.
Neighbor: Bye Atomizer
Had to log in for a comment. People calling me crazy heading back to FL from Iowa. I am looking at an undeveloped city block in Punta Gorda. Same thought. 37 ft sailboat headed out at the first whiff of trouble on land and a few months of radio monitoring. Above those talking of guns. I was thinking , lets all post a listing of the firepower sitting around as compared to a feww million rounds in the gov't hands but seriously, hush the hell up. I had a cease and desist for file sharing, never saw it coming, But now I understand.
As a kid, I spent many summers at my grandparents’ home in Punta Gorda Isles. Between swimming like a fish in the pool, and running down to the dock to check my fishing pole/crab traps; life was golden. Hanging out at Boca Grande, Sanibel and Captiva have always been second nature for me. There used to be a Baskin-Robbins at the Burnt Store Marina. Not sure if it’s still open, was just an innocent rug rat who enjoyed the simple life.. :P
Lndmvr , that’s why I stop fighting my queen bee. A light bulb went on about 4-6 months ago. She gets what she wants & I have our strategic getaway plan if things get heated in our country. What an absolute fucking win-win plan in my book. :>) [BTW, she has no knowlege of that plan B scenerio. I can tell you this, she doesn't folllow the news other than watching the business channel TV's at home. She knows things are not right in our country, but we never really talk about it...unless she asks the question first].
I want something that will Atomize the Top 0.000001%! LOL!!
can you make that for me?
and Good Job Screwing the idiots over.. it is Chess.. not Checkers!
^^^^^ for You!
When technocrats/banksters move in to take over a country they first shut down the infrastructure and begin exporting all natural resources. They then create laws to prevent anyone from being able to do anything about it. At the same time they take over the military and use it against the popultation untill everything of value is moved from the country to them. That is what is taking place in the US.
Check out this documentary on Argentina and see if it doesn't resemble what is taking place in Greece and the US.
The video is below the following heading and takes a minute to show on the page but it is definitely an eye opener.
ARGENTINA’S ECONOMIC COLLAPSE DOCUMENTARY
And to think these scum have the hubris to use the term "Technocrat" after doing this. Their evil is beyond stupidity.
"Complete removal of wasteless efforts, and a complete realignment toward income producing activity. "
Just a few small problems with that. Life itself is essentially pointless. One's instinct is to survive but as the title bar says, on a long enough timeline for ALL of us the survival rate is ZERO. Propagation of the species is pretty much our prime directive before we die. Let's be honest, it doesn't take a lot of resources to get that one step done. It takes some but not nearly as much as we're using for markets. So literally, we're fucked because we really only need to fuck & can't can't even keep our heads on straight about THAT. :D
Income ITSELF is potentially a "waste" - depending on the intrinsic value of the medium of income units, and depending on any arbitrage in the trade itself of a resource and/or work/skill for "income". Income has no purpose to me except for what it can get me in other resources. Even that is essentially pointless as I can't determine my real full life-span & once I've done the propagate-the-species part, as far as nature's concerned, my entire life-span from then on is potentially a waste, as it is for us all (without delving into the obvious that one needs to be parented & protected through childhood, benefits of community, etc., presumably without the immediate removal of the parents who donated their genes to you. This is a comment, not a novel).
Seek income if it makes you happy.
To me it's only a stepping stone. The 2 real goals for me are to acquire resources I need to directly use, and to acquire resources I can directly carry for high purchasing power on the move (e.g. gold) in case I have to abandon heavy things I can directly use (e.g. food stores, stored fuel, a property in the middle of a disaster, etc.).
After over 100 years of deliberate dumbed-down 'education' and the deliberate development of an overwhelming mass of debt-slaves, it's highly unlikely that this government can be stopped.
I dunno, the all-powerful CIA, created by the all-powerful US, couldn't even predict the collapse of the similarly all-powerful Soviet Union.
Governments are like stars. Once they go nova, they start to collapse under their own gravity.
Well if you're actively creating the downfall of the USA you might want to be careful about actually predicting it (if you are advising the President at the time.) I recommend "the two thumbs up approach" myself. (if asked of course. The "dummy up" method is of course "modus operandi" for all occasions.
ThecSoviet Union collapsed? I thought it was merely re-structured and re-branded. It runs a lot more efficiently these days.
Whe the fun starts! just concentrate your fire power on the uber rich! I am sure everyone important will be leaving for more stable enviroments.. but those that are sill here.. dont go all crazy on the pooor people! thats a wste.. save it for the Uber Rich!! or the Jewish Mangement.. or the Pigs.. or the Government Lobby Whores! you know people like that!here are some Facts! http://irmep.org/ila/About/news.htm oddly enough the FBI and the CIA and the rest of the idiots! put this information together.. but never acted on it, in a way that would Protect the Sheepeople of America any way!

I would say something witty like Wake the Fuck Up!! but most here are alreayd awake and those of you Huffington Post Types that stop by.. may need to be eased into this information after figuring out some things on your own first.
Well "wake the phuck up" is one of my favorite witticisms. Right up there with "get a job, where's the money"and "you call that sex?"

"Will America's central planners be afforded ever more power to decide the fates of not only America's population, but that of the world?
I will say "Yes" for $1 Quadrillion Alex!
But but ..... The FedGov built the highways, and what about NASA Blah blah blah. I fully expect the statist boot lickers to be all over these comments. My response to you is "Fuck Off NKVD Scum"
this is all Poppy Cock!
Wall Street is doing God's Work!
The Global Economy is going GREAT! (if you are the top 0.0000063%)
Come on Guys! You are starting to sound like Commies! The Trust Fund / Lucky Sperm Club who own us treats us sooooo much better than we treat ourselves!
Just keep playing along..
Just keep living the Lie! for a few more decades! so that I can enjoy the fruits of my labor participating in the system for the last 50 years!
I Lied, Cheated and Stole from Suckers for SOOOOO Long to be able to sit back and pretend that I am better than everyone else!
Seriously! just let it go!
I would not want to have to report you to the Department of Homeland Security for being Pro-Constitution in America! or Pro-Freedoms in America!
The procedural Laws are SOOOOO much more Flexible and therefore SOOOOOOOO much more profitable!
privatization is a GREAT! THING!! you don’t want to be Commies do you!
well what do you think that park is?? it is a state owned, homeless person magnet! let me bribed I mean Lobby! Oops! the County Commission into selling it to me for a song and then I will over charge people for the space!
that is the America Dream!! Corruption! and Greed! that is Capitalism! Today and since 1933!
Shit I will Bribe, Oops! did it again! Lobby the County Commission for the sale.. then Lobby my congressman for some matching construction funds... then lobby my senator for some federal tax breaks and then take that package to the Governor and lobby him for some State Building funds as well as some State Tax Breaks!
by the time I am done! the Sheepoeple will have paid ME!! to over charge them!! for something that they paid for!! that used to belong to them in the first place!! isnt America Grande'!!
And then have it named after themselves.
Well! "even our hypocrisy has bounds." Normally it's "Name it after those people who aren't around anymore." Does that make you feel better?
You cannot allow those who do not pay into the system (49%) to have a say in how much those of us who do contribute are forced to pay. That is a recipe for disaster.
Currently we have a huge population of people residing in the US who are not American from a psychological perspective. The mere act of living on U.S. soil does not make one American. Many are immigrants, some are natural born, but regardless of who they are, if they do not learn, understand, and appreciate the country our Founding Fathers and Patriots created for us, they have never been and never will be the Americans our Founding Fathers intended us to be who will fight to defend the highest ideals and values of this nation and Constitution.
It's not like most of them work at jobs we couldn't do if we tried or our fates are dependent on theirs or anything.
Apparently the "Founding Fathers" wanted you to be an elitist dipshit who doesn't know his ass from a hole in the ground.
Go suck Mittens' dick, ya Poll Tax wanna-be dumbass motherfucker.
You're obviously not intelligent enough to carry on a conversation without profanity, so you predictably missed the point of the message you ignorant moron. I'll dumb it down for you and come down to your level, you freshly laid turd. Until Americans start thinking and acting like responsible Americans we will continue to be f*cked by the bankers and politicians who are owned by the same bankers.
If YOUR imbecilic definition of an elitist is someone who helps ONLY THOSE who have a demonstrated need for assistance, then yes I'm an elitist. I am as far from a progressive socialist as you can imagine. If that pisses you off, then good!
Don't comment here again until you've bought yourself a 5th grade education you dumbshit.
He was quite rude, but you did begin your post suggesting in so many words we should disenfranchise 49% of the population followed by a semi coherant rant about immigrants.
I'm not quite sure what either of you are getting at.
In the interest of brevity I attempted to be succinct. Perhaps too succinct. No offense was intended to immigrants at all. The U.S. was created by immigrants. I'm a naturalized U.S. citizen and twice sworn on the Bible to uphold and protect the Constitution. My initial point was to point out that being American is more than just being on American soil. It is an understanding of the responsibility that comes with being American.
Mine is a subjective interpretation, however I believe the essence of what being American means has been diluted over time. I believe that dilution is in no small part to blame for most of our structural social and fiscal problems today. There is no longer any doubt that the U.S. government and population are becoming increasingly Progressive and Socialist. I'm going to get some major crap about saying that, but I stand by my statement.
Mitt Romney donated more money to charity than what 50% of Americans collectively paid in Federal Income Tax last year.
How 'bout you suck on that you Pan-Leninist piece of shit.
So only commies don't like the robber baron carpetbagging class? Mitt is Goldman is Morgan. They are the same extractor monopoly class .
Booby, you still here?
I thought you'd been taken-up in the Rapture, or banned in the last Purge, along with Trav.

America is just like a train. The tracks lead to the same place no matter who's driving. We can vote for a new conductor every 4 years, but the destination doesn't change. The tracks are well established. Society just sits back and peers through the bars at the beautiful scenery, but a few of us looked ahead and we don't like what we see. Slaughter house in sight. Full speed ahead.
What's your view of the "Faster! Faster!" approach underway?
faster faster didnt work for communist Russia which is now fascist, tyrany, dictatorship Russia
We're screwed. No brakes on this thing. Too much momentum. We couldn't stop it if we tried. No one seems to want to anyway (off this site)

"we tend to view government as an inevitability of life, but the fact is government is not a force of nature. It is an imperfect creation of man and it can be dismantled by man just as easily as it can be established."
- I wish the second sentence above was correct. Sadly, it is not. Government is much more difficult to dismantle than it is to establish.
No need to dismantle government. It is running out of track.
unfortunately you are wrong. they can use human beings lives as track and have done so many times throughout history. Money is no object for the entity that has a majority issued monopoly on force.
the government, which by definition does not create any wealth but merely reallocates it based on the whims of a select few
Check your "definition"
Government workers, teachers, firemen, accountants, garbage collectors, sanitation workers, doctors, nurses, etc. all
"create wealth" every bit as much as "private" workers employed in the same occupations.
(We likely disagree as to the relative efficiency, but to deny the existence of any "production" by government is ridiculous.)
Nor does the government "by definition" reallocate based on the "whims" of a select few. That may be the case nowadays. But "by definition", an open and democratic/representative government could and should allocate resources based on realistically "promoting the general welfare".
None of those are necessary functions of government.
None of those were functions, or intended functions, of the Federal Government at the time of the passage of the Constitution.
All of those functions can, and should, be provided by private enterpreneurs within local communities.
i-dog
Your opinion about who should deliver necessary services has nothing to do with the oft-repeated and false claim that government does not "produce wealth", and that only the "private sector" does.
Government can only produce wealth by using funds first stolen from the private sector to then forcibly take over other productive activities of the private sector.
Why else do you think they restrict or outright prohibit competition in whatever they "run"?
Taking over private schoolhouses in flyover country in order to set up a bureaucracy in DC is not creating wealth ... it is stealing it from a local community and redistributing it (to DC).
Taking over private clinics and hospitals on the left coast in order to set up a bureacracy in DC is not creating wealth ... it is stealing it from a local community and redistributing it (to DC).
Why else do you think they restrict or outright prohibit competition in whatever they "run"?
You are talking about the private sector especially, because monopolization is the way to increase profits.
Without property “rights”, patents, licenses, captive markets, or captive labor, profits diminish. There is a built-in bias toward monopolization of resources and production, and labor arbitrage - and the symbioses with government, … all done to establish and protect privileged access.
Government can only produce wealth by using funds first stolen from the private sector
Yours is a very reactionary philosophy if you believe taxing large corporations in the private sector (Goldman Sachs, BP oil, Halliburton, et al) is “stealing”. Because of that false labeling and misdirected outrage, you and others may blindly wind up protective of the very wealth and privilege you allegedly deplore.
Does not the “private sector” exist concomitant with the public sector by virtue the protections and limitations of government, - beginning with the very notion of “private property” (aka lands and resources “taken” from the public sector)?
to then forcibly take over other productive activities of the private sector.
All productive activities use up (take over) resources which could theoretically have been employed elsewhere.
LOL ... circular reasoning at its best!!
Your examples of "private enterprise" are all protected members of cartels licensed by, and sucking at, the government teat.
None of those are necessary functions of government.
None of those were functions, or intended functions, of the Federal Government at the time of the passage of the Constitution.
All of those functions can, and should, be provided by private enterpreneurs within local communities.
_______________________________________________
Funny sequence.
So a US citizen starts on the government.
And makes it a public thing. Another pops in and makes it a private thing.
Governments can be private, can be public.
The reality is it does not change the substance of the government.
The funniest bit is that the republic US citizens wanted so much was made in opposition to private form of governments (and not contrary to cheap US propaganda, democracy)
US citizen nature is eternal.
the general welfare. is that what democrats vote for or republicans? Is that Iraq or is it libya?
Wealth creation and production are two separate things. You are the one that needs to check your definitions.
communist russia produced goods and services they did not create much wealth. On the other hand a government of the us 1850-1900 which for the most part served the proper roll of government, property right protection, law enforcement and a judcial system set the stage for more wealth creation in 50 years than had been created in the history of mankind/
riphowardkatz
You pointlessly attempt to turn the discussion to debate what is the general welfare, and you attempt to illogically and narrowly define "wealth creation" as only that which is created by the private sector, even when that created by government is identical for all purposes.
I understand why the stubborn refusal to admit that a government doctor or teacher can provide the same service as a "private" one.
Were that obvious fact admitted, a big hole would be punched in the prevalent anti-government anarchistic worship of the so-called "private sector".
The government can produce lots of things. Production is much different than wealth creation. Providing services is much different than creating wealth. No one is denying the government can produce stuff. That is obvious.
If they do create wealth then where is my dividend check? Oh that's right they are a few trillions and counting in the hole.
You continue to create stramen by claiming I am anarchist. I gave a perfectly valid role of the government. I do not advocate no government. I advocate the proper role of government.
riphowarkatz
You are twisting the language to invent definitions which fit your preconceptions. But you may be on to something. The way GDP is calculated does need revision. "Wealth creation" without "production". Hmmm.
Oh wait, you have answered it for us perhaps. "where is my dividend check?" For "wealth creation" to exist, apparently there must be a "dividend check". By all means, unless part of what is "produced" is handed over as a dividend check, it must not be called "wealth creation", but merely and sadly, just "production".
I did suggest the stubborn objections of yourself (and others) to my comments about the denial of government wealth creation were common to the “prevalent anti-government anarchistic worship of the so-called private sector". Your Orwellian logic in defense of the private sector is indeed religious, anti-government, and hence “anarchistic“.
Production is a requirement of wealth creation but production does not inevitably lead to wealth creation. It can lead to subsistance and it can even lead to wealth destruction (see trillions and trillions in debt)
I am really not twisting any language on the contrary I am properly using langauge.
Speaking of a religion you should examine your own faith in the state and their r trillions and trillions in debt with no end in site) And the irony is the only positive end that can be imagined by state worhshipers like yourself requires growth from the private sector. Very funny stuff if it wasn't so sad. You worship the church of the state and your church is bankrupt, all that wealth the state has created is really a system that is costing trillions in debt each year. The only funding they have from this point forward will come at the cost of the lives of people whether through war or through inflation.
I am not anti-government I really do not know why you insist on saying that I made it perfectly clear I am all for government in its proper roll. I am against government as a looter of the working poor, a looter of the middle class and a looter of the wealthy. I am against governement telling me they are saving me by bailing out too big to fail banks. I am against government as a war mongering, fear instilling entity that looks for every opportunity to grab more power and steal more wealth.
"Government workers....."create wealth" ???????
Government workers consume wealth and impede the creation of wealth. Fixed it for ya.
Kayman
Maybe you should go into politics where sound-bites can substitute for reason.
Private sector workers also consume wealth and impede the creation of wealth. Fixed it for ya.
(and again, the above has nothing to do with the original fact I stated, and that they BOTH can "create wealth".)
Your argument is nonsenical to the extreme.
Code-Words in your posts indicate paid pro-statism troll.
Ergo- your own posts prove the fallacy of your theory. Tax money is stolen from the mouths of the productive class depriving them of capital. Same wealth is put into your parasitic pocket, results in pro-slavery pro-.gov posts on this blog and multiple others
That is not sir "the creation of wealth" that is the "bloating of a parasite"
