Remember The Words Of Joseph Stalin
Everyone imposes his own system as far as his army can reach.
Ideas are more powerful than guns. We would not let our enemies have guns, why should we let them have ideas.
It is enough that the people know there was an election. The people who cast the votes decide nothing. The people who count the votes decide everything.
- All Quotes by Joseph Stalin
Know Your Enemy
I recall wanting to read Mein Kampf as a young kid, although to this day I have only read excerpts. I wanted to know what made this guy tick, what his thoughts were. How could someone justify such horrific actions. As I have progressed into adulthood I have only become more and more convinced that books written by psychopath killer dictators should be required reading for every single human being on the planet. In a similar vein, I remember hearing the argument back in high school that people should not read Machiavelli’s The Prince. The argument was that if people read a manual on devious thoughts, and the application of ruthless behavior to achieve one’s selfish ends, that it would permeate society and lead us all into a darker place. As soon as I heard this, of course, the first thing I did was head to the book store to buy it. I recall my reaction to the treatise vividly.
I remember thinking how absolutely asinine the argument for shielding this book from society really was. The conclusion I came to was that anyone with a truly sick, sociopathic mind wouldn’t learn anything from this book. Their minds already intuitively thought that way. Those that could be persuaded to think in that manner as a result of reading such a book were just dangerous sheeple that would sell their souls to work with a sick system. They would end up doing so anyway. Those people don’t scare me so much as the naturally devious mind does. They can be easily outmaneuvered by smarter men and women. If I am correct, then the worst possible thing we can do as a society is to pretend that this extremely small percentage of the population doesn’t exist or pose a threat to us in our everyday lives (please read my related article here). I think that most of the population of the United States (aka Disneyland) has been duped into thinking that somehow the Hitler or Stalin personalities of the world no longer exist! That somehow they just disappeared from the earth after World War 2, or more importantly, if they exist they are in some remote African country or Middle Eastern nation that just conveniently happens to have oil!
If Americans can indeed be convinced that such people roam the streets of the US of A then they are likely the one-off serial killer we hear about every now and again, or some homeless person that ODs on bath salts and eats some other homeless persons face on the side of a highway in Miami. The big secret is that the smart, devious and ambitious minds do not lock middle aged women in basements; they go into politics. More specifically, they pursue power wherever it can be had. This is why I refer to Washington D.C. as a the world’s largest cesspool. I think at this very moment there aren’t many places on this earth with a higher concentration per capita of twisted, immoral, inhumane creatures that somehow still refer to themselves as human beings.
So in this context, the awakening that is happening across much of my nation is really just the citizenry realizing what most of the world already knows all too well. The Siren’s song of Disney has been strong but its effect is wearing off. You can’t defeat your enemy unless you know your enemy.
Remember the Words of Joseph Stalin
As we head into the Greek election this weekend, I thought it would be appropriate to recall the words of Joseph Stalin. Particularly his observation about elections and vote counting. I find it hilarious that the Greek authorities suspended polling heading into the election. I mean, that tells you everything you need to know. This is exactly what you would do if you were thinking about rigging the results. The worst thing that could happen would be to have Syriza soaring in the polls into the main event. If that was the case, it would be much more difficult to arrange a more “favorable” outcome. This way they can just claim “wow, unexpectedly the bankster parties won!” I’m not predicting that will be the outcome, I’m just saying the suspension of polling was a huge red flag. Here is the chart of the last polling results and some excellent commentary. Greece is extremely important as it is a key testing ground for TPTB. Everything that is happening in Greece will be attempted elsewhere if they can get away with it there. This gives the country a great deal of significance. That said, even if Greece is lost there is no way TPTB can win this thing. It is taking them more than two years to roll up tiny Greece. Even if they succeed, do you think Spain and Italy will go so easily. Then what about the U.S. with hundreds of millions of guns everywhere? There is no chance. The globalist agenda is already dead in the water; however, as we can see it doesn’t stop them from continuing to try.
What TPTB do not appreciate are the lessons we are all learning from Greece. We must learn many more lessons though. We must admit to ourselves that there are truly evil geniuses out there, and in most cases these characters have taken control of the power structure (corporations, politics and factions of the military in most of the nations we reside in). The necessary action is not for good people to bury their heads in the sand and pretend that such people do not exist. We must get inside their minds. We must acknowledge and accept their presence as well as their power and then work tirelessly to relieve them of it. As Irish statesmen, author and philosopher Edmund Burke so eloquently stated: “All that’s necessary for the forces of evil to win in the world is for enough good men to do nothing.” Let’s just do it already.

Everything what you think can happen won't happen.
The outcome will be something totally different.
Seen that happen a billion times already....

"A single death is a tragedy, a million deaths is a statistic." - Josef Stalin

5. Centralization of credit in the hands of the state, by means of a national bank with State capital and an exclusive monopoly.
By K. Marx, The Communist Manifesto, 1848
Remember the words of Lennon Hendrix:
Crash JPM - Buy Silver
Stalin: "Less filling!"
Hitler: "Tastes great!"
It's amazing how many times you can raise points just such as this in the comments section one day and have these 'posters' post the same shit as a new article on the next.
Surely this place should be where we demostrate how far we are ahead of the game, not just typing as we read to hopefully pick up a few more 'clients' based on other peoples more astute observations...
seems to happen a lot, unfortunately...
They've turned the entire world into a Borg prison labor death camp, yet given it the appearance of Disneyland. Nice job Banker dudes.
Remember the words of Captain Edward Smith of the RMS Titanic:
Where'd all this fucking water come from???
and his other famous one-liner:
'What the fuck was that?'
10. Free education for all children in public schools. Abolition of children's factory labor in its present form. Combination of education with industrial production.
Industrial production that the state controls...see number seven ;-)
Oh serious? That wasn't the Bernanke?
"If I am correct, then the worst possible thing we can do as a society is to pretend that this extremely small percentage of the population doesn’t exist or pose a threat to us in our everyday lives"
um, 3 to 5 percent of the population are probably psychopaths. Thats far more than the "1%" the OWSers are protesting against. Since most of them are men, that puts it close to 1 in 10 men. Hardly an extremely small percentage.
are you saying Hilary Clinton is a man?
No, but she has a dick.
...she gots big back 2
Hillary's got so much ass, she got ass up her back.
I know for sure she has a willy.
dude. she posts here.
Her unauthorized bio says she dated women in college. Must be why she cares less that Billy cheats on her all of the time.
dude, this site used to be a bi- and bi-curious meet-up site before Tyler got all into financial shit. Not sure lesbian jokes work here same way as at other, more manly, sites
hehehehehe
Of course she does silly! She cut if off Billy boi.
How ridiculous!
Hillary would have to be human first.
A few minutes ago I saw a news clip of Hilary. She was bemoaning the fact that Syria was going to be getting some Russian helicopters, and worried that they could be used to kill innocent civilians. Not a word was mentioned about Obama's drones.
Obama's drones only kill baaaaaad people.
We drone folk only communicate with other machines. Teleprompters for example.
How dare Syria murder innocent people?! That's our fuckin' job!
sshh
We should be very thankful that Stalin got rid of Trotsky and the rest of the jew supremacist Communists, As bad as Stalin wss those Trotsky jews were worse even though their ilk have now managed to get control and are the evil people the author fears even though he might not realize it.
We should be very thankful that Stalin got rid of Trotsky and the rest of the jew supremacist Communists,
So, they would have murdered 75 million fellow Russians?.
Instead of 50?
Stalin getting rid of the Jews? WTF are you talking about? His whole Politburo was Jewish. They along with him make Hitler look like an amateur.
The Trotsky faction were jew supremacists, other top mass murderer jews like Kaganovich and Ehrenberg and Beria were too but had Stalin fooled and they eventually poisoned him.
'Kaganavich & Ehrenberg & Beria had Stalin fooled and eventually poisoned him'.
Yeah, they only waited a mere 30 fuckin years to get him to drop his guard. Uh-huh. Are you saying the eeeebil Rooski Joooos took on the characteristics of their bitches, the British Intel Services? That their fakes were so subtle, they went unnoticed?? And then, just 3 _decades_ later, they struck!! like a COBRA!!!!!!! Please.
You don't have a clue.
We should be very thankful that Stalin got rid of Trotsky and the rest of the jew supremacist Communists,
"So, they would have murdered 75 million fellow Russians?.
Instead of 50?"
More than that. They also would have murdered many more in the countries they took over. Trotsky wanted to take over the world and have a worldwide Red Terror. The same gang has taken over America and is setting up the police state to do the same thing here

"If voting changed anything, they would make it illegal." - Emma Goldman
If this is true we are in some deep shit. I would like to know the 26 states involved.
There are only 5-to-7 that will decide this thing. If one them has been compromised then I'll be worried. If, however, these asshats are voting votes in California, NY... who gives a shit? We weren't gonna win thos crazy states anyway.
I'm confused. Are there states that wouldn't be voting for Mittack Obamney?
Who cares about vote counting for the 2012 prez election? It's either Obama or Romney. I don't think the powers that be are sweating out who ends up winning.
We're in deep shit and short cotton anyway you look at it. They are once again giving us a choice between two outlandish asshats. Which one will look slightly less silly on our heads is what we are voting for.
Says the asshat thats never met, talked to, read the book of, worked for, lived in the state governed by, invested with, done research into the investments of.... Romney.
Ive done all of the abovr. And ive given $1,000 to his campaign and will give more.
Fucktard OWS hippy asshat.
Shall we all shout hip-hip-hooray for another 1%'er!
There are known knowns.
Its pretty clear O'Barry is a colossal failure, its not even debatable. Its also clear Paul will not be the GOP nominee (I voted for him in the primary by the way). And lastly, the majority doesn't have a clue (outside of ZH & elsewhere) who Gary Johnson is.
Like it or not, either O'Barry or Romney will be the President.
I would rather have the one with the least amount of marxist friends !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
Romney pays 14% income tax as a billionaire. Obama pays 20% as a multi millionaire.
In 2012 america, Marxism is a trope.
There shouldn't even be an income tax.
All a "progressive" income tax system does is allow for statists (in power) the ability to constantly manipulate the tax code to curry favor and reward their friends & family, as you say.
Flat sales tax across the board (on all classes) gives everyone skin in the game...ten percent of a million is still more than ten percent of a hundred bucks.
Are the down votes from people that dislike all taxes or statists?
Hard to say. You got your anarchists and your progressives who dislike the proposal for different reasons.
Now, you and I could be anarchists (totally independent) and survive and thrive quite well...lol...but I think we would both be a little uncomfortable stepping over the sick (without family) laying around in the street.
Likewise, the "progressive" mind desires the state to intercede on behalf of anyone with a simple hang nail because its uncomfortable and they are too incompetent to do for themselves. No expense should be spared (according to them) to make life comfortable for all...which requires ceding independence, time & money to the state.
There is a middle ground...limited government and limited expectations...but most living things seek the easier route.
I'm a victim!!!...gimme!!!...lol.
this is why I teach classical ethics (Plato, Aristotle, Epictetus, ec.) in my classes; the idea of the "mean" or "moderation" or "prudence" in the classical sense, is apparently alien to the modern mind.
Everyone thinks the other side represents a slippery slope. Fallacy!
The reason for an income tax is to give a federal reserve note value. Prepaid-tax-coupon.
And I pay 25% being working poor...makes sense to me...
Add another 14% to that which your boss pays in FICA taxes instead of paying it to you.
heh, as a college prof, i think i get yer joke
As near as I can tell, getting hot and bothered these days about "MArxism" or "Communism" or even "Socialism," is like getting all wrapped up in debates about the nature of electricity 100 years ago.
Interesting, sure. Meanwhile, the real world is happening, has happened, and is way, way beyond the debate you are trying to think still really exists.
Capitalism won gentlemen. Then something else happened. And it wasn't, and isn't, Marxism, Communism, nor even Socialism per se.
Come on. Think, Mitt.
Same here...I despise Engels, Marx, Mao, Chavez...almost as much as Van Jones ;-)
//////////////////////////
I take it someone disagrees with me calling Van Jones a _____ communist?
"I was a rowdy nationalist on April 28th [1992], and then the verdicts came down on April 29th. By August, I was a communist.
I met all these young radical people of color – I mean really radical: communists and anarchists. And it was, like, 'This is what I need to be a part of.' I spent the next ten years of my life working with a lot of those people I met in jail, trying to be a revolutionary."- Van Jones, >>>2005<<< quoted in East Bay Express (a Berkeley rag)
I have met, and talked to.
That's why I WILL BE WRITING IN RON PAUL!
Im with the asshat on this one.
WELL DONE ASSHAT, WELL DONE!
What if he wanted that responce?
Thank you for validating my prior contempt for you, Roadkill, as well as for proving what a clueless, craven, shortsighted, spineless bastard you really are. My revulsion toward you has now reached its ultimate limit.
One question: when are you finally going to live up to your handle here?
akak
It is childish to pout that you did not your guy into the finals. Unless you have proof that the system is rigged (and I'm open to hearing it) you should try your best to get your guy in but failing that back the best guy.
I won't be giving a dime to any one else in the Presidential cycle,( I did contribute to Ron Paul) but I will be contributing to the Club for Growth candidates in the Senate and House races. So far we got guys like Demint, Coburn, Flake and 34 others who fight the good fight and call out the weak sisters. Bitch all you want if that is all you want to do but if you are serious then find something like the Club for Growth that researches good candidates and helps weed out (in this case ) RINOs. Be effective with your $$...
If you are into the grand conspriacies and just can't particpate OK I understand and will leave you be.
Re. Rigged system.
How's this for starters?

Cocksucking tick. Can't you see Mitt's dick in his mouth?
Giggling, but didn't need that visual. I think it's my old "friend" Mynhair. He must be out of practice because he forgot to include libtard in his rant.
You know, that Roadkill is just an opportunistic brown noser looking for the right asshole to nuzzle.
He, so impressed with his $1k contribution seemingly does not realize that in politics,
a thousand lets you stick your head up your own ass.
That's a rather dreary-looking bandwagon you're trying to get going there. just sayin.

Very good, then you will not be surprised when Obama is re-elected.
It's one of those "have to see to believe" things.
Then you will see things you will truly not believe.
They will be real..
At least when a new movie comes out, they give a preview. Since you know what will happen, please clue the rest of us in.
That is supposing you really know something...or maybe you are just braggin and don't really know anything.
Familiar with the hanging chad fiasco?
If not, that is why we have electronic voting now.
The question you have to ask yourself is..
What happens when people poll other people (talk to, communicate with) and figure out the numbers don't add up? Because they will figure it out.
What do you think will happen??
Are we all going to sit around the campfire and sing kunbaya, and who gives a shit?? The whole country voted against him and he still won?? And we should be ok with that??
There is a link brother Plazidow has provided above, start by clicking that link.
This coming US election - vote counting has been outsourced to a Spanish company with strong ties to Soros.
This guarantees him a win. Fascism at its finest. Time to get the hell outa dodge if your able, and if not God help us all.
This SHOULD be declared illegal, how CAN IT NOT be?.
I cannot agree with you enough. I bitch about our paperless ballots and the people who man the polls look at me like I am crazy. I hand in the vote and ask them, "If there is a computer glitch, how will they know how I voted? If there needs to be a recount, what will you count?" They just look scared like I am gonna cause a scene. It embarasses my son so I just quit. Quit voting too.
+1 though the polling people aren't to blame. It's like yelling at a bank teller about the bailouts.
Or like yelling at the concentration camp guards who are just following orders.
Er....
I have worked the polls often in LA County. And I don't disagree with your sentiment however as pointed out its akin to complaining to the teenager asking you if you "want fries with that" at the McDonald's Drivethrough about McDonald's corporate or board policy. The person you are talking to has zero ability to affect policy. And least of all on that busy day where they have a bunch of poorly thought out bureacratic things to do during that 15 hour day.
Even when there are problems with the machines the incompetent baffoons take hours to get back to us when we call in an issue. Believe me making that statement or asking questions at your local polling place is not the thing to do. If you want to do something productive write a blog post on the issue, or write a letter to the editor of your local newspaper and CC the local official in charge of running elections. Or try and organize an iniative in your state which would require a paper ballot.
Even though I think it is a sham, I thank you for your service. My show is really for the voters (and the poll folks are probably voters). I have done the "letter to the editor" but feel helpless to do more.
Yeah, when I vote here in FL they stand next to the machine as it swallows my vote and look directly at my ballot to see how I voted. What a crock.
laissez-faire socialism – no interference by the taxpaying rubes who have to pay for all the socialism.

Remember The Words Of Joseph Stalin
Mate...your one dead cunt if you don't do as i say
Is that right?
Not sure Stalin was British. He DID look like Super Mario, though.
More precise form of the famous Stalin quote and its source:
"You know, comrades," says Stalin, "that I think in regard to this: I consider it completely unimportant who in the party will vote, or how; but what is extraordinarily important is this - who will count the votes, and how."
- Joseph Stalin, quoted in 'Memoirs of Stalin's Former Secretary' (1992), by Boris Bazhanov
the placeholder couldn't have said it any better than that!
Not to mention that my mates don't have cunts.
All the lads say that ;-)
@2527205: Stalin was Gruzian (Georgian). Contrary to some rumors, he was not Jewish (nor Italian for that matter).
Well, close. You might be one dead cunt regardless.
no, he would have you killed even if you did what was asked. just to keep other people guessing.
He had a good practice with secret service. They could do anything they wanted (and he wanted) and every 5 years he would order execution of all of them, and executors would become new secret service guys.
Stalin once remarked about people in the Soviet Union who were a problem for the communist party of the Soviet Uion. Stalin said "No person, No problem". And that my friends is how so many Russian people were tortured to confess to being enemies of the people and then being shot.
Russia's railroad system was plauged by accidents and late trains. Stalin ordered widescale purges after every accident or systemic late trains. At one point the minister of Soviet Railroads was forced to tell Stalin that so many Rail Road workers had been arrested shot or deported to Siberia that the entire system was nearing collapse. "No people, No rail roads".
Stalin backed off the purges only when he neared collaspe of the entire Soviet economy. After all, even Party members need to eat, keep the house warm, buy clothes and have a car to drive.
That's the problem with communism. Eventually you run out of other people's Food, houses, clothes, and cars.
...and people.
wait what does he want us to do again?
It.
I understood that would be involved with it.
I believe the major dilemma is what we do with it once it's done.
That is when the real war starts... and is usually when tptb re-establish power, as has been the case in every major revolution ever.
Bullish, priced in, bad news just straight up ignored..... The market only cares about good news now a days ZH they wont pay attention to bad news
Big show is still next Weds. Everyone waiting for Bernake.
Stalin was a great vote counter.
... and soul harvester.
And a hell of a billiards player..
Made a wonderful foie gras.
Had facial hair to make you weep.
"The globalist agenda is already dead in the water; however, as we can see it doesn’t stop them from continuing to try."
They will continue on their ruinous path until their self-made deaths - because, like the scorpion, it is their nature.
a scorpion asks a frog to get him across a river and the frog says, "why would i do that you'd sting me when we are halfway across."
the scorpion says, "well if i do that we'll both die"
the frog thinks about it, and decides the scorpion is right so he offers him a ride across the river on his back, halfway across the river the scorpion stings the frog in the back, the frog asks while sinking, "why did you do that, now we are both going to die"
the scorpion says, "because i am a scorpion, thats what i do"
In reality, the scorpion waits until they are both across and then stings the frog.
Scorpion stings frog before they cross the river. Scorpion then inflates frog, and offers rides to other animals on the back of the frog for a fee they can't afford, but with an affordable monthly payment scheme.
Scorpion re-hypothecates frog-raft and retires to Cayman Islands.
True story.
scorpion leverages his own back to the Knick's, who win a title by drafting a 7 foot Chinese sailor who is used to playing on court on a boat, since that is where they are since MSG is on the Scorpion's back. MSG networks wants in on the CHina market, and threatens to bribe the port authority to cause "delays" in the Ferries to the MSG on the Scorpion's back on the back of the frog who just got stung and is going down. The Chinese claim fishing rights which destroy the fly egg supply the frog lives on, so he goes down twice as fast. Cap'n Sullenberger swoops in and saves the non-assholes; everyone else drowns.
But the Knicks fuckin won a title.
So long as it isn't the fucking Lakers.
Public opinion polls are banned in Greece 2 weeks before any election, so I don't really see your point about that.
Ha! Yes, typical American not checking of facts about Europe, Krieger just wildly claiming it was a new kind of Greek dirty deal
There certainly are a lot of dirty deals with the Greek situation but indeed that wasn't one of them
Yeah, this is another crying wolf story. They don't allow the polling so that people feel like their vote counts and they are motivated to vote. Who's gonna vote if it's on the news everynight that Dickhead A is ahead of Asshat B 72% - 15%?
Kinda like why the hell should I vote on the west coast when you called the election 4 hours before the poll closes?
And here's the deal for the conspiracy minded: If the Greek elections were all rigged up like they are here, we wouldn't be having this do-over because the "right" people would have already won.
/agree. voting should not be a "market" activity; leave the citizens alone, let them decide, let them vote. there are times to remain silent, in other words. Respect.
he needs to add another one
"One death is a tragedy, a million deaths is a statistic."
Quoted by former Soviet leader, Josef Stalin.
Look yourself in the eyes when you shave. That is a start.
Hell, I do that, and I don't even use a mirror neither
"We must acknowledge and accept their presence as well as their power and then work tirelessly to relieve them of it."
i agree but i've a far easier solution than "working tirelessly"... and it's more effective too:
Stop Paying Your Taxes
you've no idea how simple, effortless, effective and what a work of genius this solution is ...it works wonders your tireless efforts couldn't come close to matching ..this is a Truth Virus once begun renders all known human germs/scum/parasites neutralised within months
Tax is the nuclear button to kill scum the world over
..sorts the good from the garbage, productive from the parasites and farmers from the lawyers/lawmakers... Tax is Theft, Govt is Anarchy, it's where all the problems begin ..so end it, so simple
Zero Tax = Zero Govt = Zero Problems/Parasites
How is government "anarchy?"
Are using "anarchy" as a (dubious) synonym for "bad?"
Some people have their heart in the right place, but just don't articulate well. If I had money to throw around, I would hire an ad agency for anti-government movement.
have you met the US Govt?
seen what's happened in Greece?
how about the rest of Europe?
as happened in the USSR, Communist China, Zimbabwe, Argentina a few times?
as i said, a small group wrecking a society or by another name, Government
CommunityStandard - by any measure Govt is absolutely perverse. Almost every claim of Govt's "goodness" it always delivers the perverse opposite (ie. is a sham)
just for starters look at the Tax system. The tax system takes (thieves, as we have no choice) from the productive people and gives to the unproductive (politicians, lately bankers, bankrupt business people/models and welfare spoungers)
You cannot tax parasites you have to tax the best people in society. So from the get-go Govt is taxing (demoralising) the good people. If you're a parasite it gives you money in various forms, it encourages (rewards) parasites in society
Govt is an institution that transfers wealth from good people to parasites
that's just issue No.1 where Govt flips society, morality, principles, common sense and anything that is good on its head
there is nothing Govt does that is good and easily the most rotten and corrupt institution ever to walk the face of the Earth
Govt is crumbling, stumbling and collapsing the world over, and wrecking/taking whole nations down the sewer with it as it has destroyed nation states throughout history ...Govt is a wrecking ball, it builds nothing, it just sucks
it's time is over ...we've all had a good laugh at what a sad rotten joke this institution is, so no-brainer here, let's bin this total failure of an institution and consign it to history
Using 'anarchy' as a synonym for 'chaos' ... this pleases your overlords immensely, it means their age-old slander campaign is working. Make sure to use 'capitalism' as a synonym for its opposite, 'state-capitalism', and the closely related 'Marxism', as well.
War is Peace. Ignorance is Strength. Capitalism exists. Anarchy is bad.
"Anarchy", from the Greek an, meaning "not" or "no", and archos, meaning "rule". Literally, the word simply means "no rule" (no government), and is, as you point out, in NO way a synonym for "chaos" or "disorder", despite the 100+ year smear campaign of statists of all stripes.
Thanks Akak
the usual definition of anarchy includes, as you rightly mention, pre-loaded spin from Ye Olde Establishment including words like "without Govt" or "lawlessness" implying without the State or its croney tool, the Law, society would be un-civil
this is of course a pre-loaded lie, society is naturally (like nature) civil, it does not require a bunch of village idiots behind Govt desks to be civil ...indeed nobody causes more civil unrest than Govt, including wars, riots, protests, road rage etc etc
Much as I share your loathing for all current governments, I cannot see how it would be possible to exist in any kind of peace without some ultimate (and representative) monopolist of coercion, to prevent an unrepresentative coercive group seizing power.
The trick is for the polity to keep this monopolist in tight check. So far, we don't seem to have had a successful example of this. The US started fairly well (by historical standards, at least) but we let the shadow creep back into Mordor.
"The US started fairly well (by historical standards, at least) but we let the shadow creep back into Mordor."
Whatever that winds up meaning (Tolkien or otherwise) yes we did. It takes eternal vigilance...not submitting to fear, envy, lust or greed...maybe "freemen" aren't capable just yet.
Dunno, this freeman is hungry...for leftovers...lol.

As large a scale anarchy as I prefer, is a good long hiking expedition in the mountains with friends. There are no rules, we make good camps and take care of ourselves and the earth.
Anything larger scale than that, people start to spawn asshole versions of themselves.
the social and economic chaos in Greece is plain for all to see
this is the effect of Govt ...the cause is Govt too as it sucks money out of the productive economy into the unproductive sectors thereby first stagnating and then wrecking the real economy
couldn't care less what the Overlords like or dislike, the battleground is for the hearts and minds of the productive people who are and will awaken to the cause of all this social and economic mahem and destruction: Govt
Yes, it is but when Greece had LESS government, pre-EEC, pre-EURO, it was much worse. And it was that way for at least a thousand years. Even today, the average Greek standard of living is incomparably higher than what it was 50 years ago and will continue to be so.
Correlation does not necessarily imply causation.
A couple little things called the Enlightenment and the Industrial Revolution also happened in the last 1000 years. Methinks that they had much more to do with rising Greek standards of living than more government.
Anyway, it is specious to even claim that the Greeks had "less government" for "at least a thousand years" before today --- there was that little thing known as the Byzantine Empire, whose very name has come to stand for bureaucracy run amok, as well as the oppression of the Ottoman Empire afterward, which lasted well into the 19th century. "Less government" indeed!
Please Google Sam Francis, "Anarcho-tyranny". It's his description of our current system, and he has good reasons for it.
Optimus - from a quick read it appears Mr Francis is blaming multiculturism, which is bollocks to be quite frank
the economy is based entirely on the individual and his/her freedom to gain economically. Restrict freedom geographically and by action you limit/deny the wider economy
the freedom to migrate or trade has been of huge benefit to humanity throughout history ...no borders/barriers to trade
About this:

I used to believe this, but not anymore for the following reasons (assuming you are talking about illegals):

- Unless the incoming population replaces workers faster then the local economies can absorb them
- Unless the Incoming workers ignore vast amounts of laws that put them at an advantage to the local workers, like licensing and bonding laws
- Unless the incoming workers take welfare, medicaid, EBT, etc. etc. which WERE NOT AROUND before 1970
- Unless the displaced workers can't compete due to the difficulty of starting new businesses.
the freedom to migrate or trade has been of huge benefit to humanity throughout history ...no borders/barriers to trade
- Unless "free trade" is used an a economic weapon to destroy domestic industries
- Unless "free trade" is used as a political weapon against internal groups the government doesn't want successful
- Unless the incoming population replaces workers faster then the local economies can absorb them
If they're coming faster than local economies can absorb them, why are they coming?
- Unless the Incoming workers ignore vast amounts of laws that put them at an advantage to the local workers, like licensing and bonding laws
These laws skew the market. The problem isn't the incoming workers, but the laws that put existing workers at a disadvantage. Think about it - if local workers, with all their pre-existing resources, are unable to compete with resource-less migrants, how are they ever going to compete with other overseas workers in offshore industries?
- Unless the incoming workers take welfare, medicaid, EBT, etc. etc. which WERE NOT AROUND before 1970
This isn't the problem of immigration - this is the problem of setting up free-lunches that attract the poor from other countries. Institute pay as you go (either directly or via recipient-funded insurance) and this problem disappears.
- Unless the displaced workers can't compete due to the difficulty of starting new businesses.
What - so it's easier for immigrants to start new businesses?
All the 'problems' you've listed don't arise from immigration - they arise because governments' re-distributive schemes distort markets.
I agree with you, but you are talking about theory in a perfect world, and I am stating the facts on the ground as they are now:
- Unless the incoming population replaces workers faster then the local economies can absorb them
If they're coming faster than local economies can absorb them, why are they coming?
- Good question, you tell me! I am guessing to talk advantage of the welfare state- Unless the Incoming workers ignore vast amounts of laws that put them at an advantage to the local workers, like licensing and bonding laws
These laws skew the market. The problem isn't the incoming workers, but the laws that put existing workers at a disadvantage. Think about it - if local workers, with all their pre-existing resources, are unable to compete with resource-less migrants, how are they ever going to compete with other overseas workers in offshore industries?
Yes, I agree, the laws need to go, but, they never will unless a great reset happens.

What - so it's easier for immigrants to start new businesses?
Yes, it is much, much easier for am immigrant to start a new business. Here is just ONE example:
Here is a business you can start literally with just a hammer, Contracting. However, in this state it requires licensing, and you have to be bonded. If you are caught, for instance, working on a roof without the proper license and permitt, it is a FELONY! Just insane.
Being a local person, living in the community, with your home and roots here, with no where else to go, this is a real problem. A conviction means you can't vote (usless anyway lol), carry a gun. or hold a real job at some point in the future.
However, If you are an immigrant, and you get caught, you pay the bail bond, fuck-off back to your home country, or just go somewhere else in this country under a newly assumed set of papers (fake ss, tin, etc) and start again.
