The Agency laid off 4,000 workers at midnight, another 771 employees were told not to show up for work today. The effects ofThe dogs of war are snarling. They strain forward, slavering, growling, pawing the air, eager to get at one another, to rend and tear and wet their lips with blood.
Let the word go forth from Washington! The corporate rulers occupying our nation's capital have declared war on just about every citizen. Have no doubt: those in the upper ranges of the top 1% of wealth in this country (aka The Money Party) want to kick you to the curb.
They want to reduce your social security and make you go broke paying for medical care.
They want to lower your wages and trash your retirement.
They ignore the clear facts that we've had negative job growth since 2000 and the situation is just getting worse.
They want to ship jobs, factories, and entire businesses overseas and give companies that do that a big fat tax credit for doing so.
They've been given so much for nothing for so long. Now, they're ready to take it all. It's their time!
The most recent assault is the ridiculous debate about raising the debt ceiling. There should be no debate. Failing to raise the ceiling right now means deliberate default on debts, refusing to pay bills the government can pay. It's called fraud.
The pressing need to fix the budget is a separate issue. Reduced spending and increased revenues should come through broad public involvement and open debate. It mandates that the rulers behave like adults.
But this crisis isn't about putting together a real budget. It's about creating a budget that punishes you, your family, and friends. It's about taking your attention away from your vital interests to maximize income and control by The Money Party.
Were the leaders on either side of the debate serious, the Bush era tax cuts would be restored. These cuts on the top 1% were temporary. Guess what? Congress lied. When the temporary tax breaks ran out a few months ago, they were revived and renewed just when we had the greatest need for revenues.
The Money Party won't give up its wars either. Iraq and Afghanistan have added $4 trillion to the national deficit of $14 trillion. Why not stop the wars? How hard is that to figure that out?
Getting rid of Bush tax cuts for the super-rich, ending the wars, and moving out of the recession/depression would be huge steps toward balancing the budget. But that won't happen with this Congress and this president. Why? That would cost the financial elite money for taxes and lost income for all those weapons they sell to support the wars.
The Attack on You Began in Earnest Just Years Ago
Congress repealed Depression era banking regulation that kept your banks from risky investments in 1999.
Congress enacted legislation in 2000 that allowed extremely risky investments in real estate and other derivatives, illegal for nearly a century.
In 2001, the big banks and Wall Street celebrated its newly purchased freedoms with a decade-long binge of fraud and risky investments. Like a greedy con artist, they took everything they could from people here and around the world until there was no more to take. We have now hit the wall thanks to them.
The outrageous expenses of wars based on lies caught up with us and shoved the deficit to new heights. The tax cuts for the top 1% took away revenues needed to balance the budget.
The money they steal from the Social Security surplus is no longer enough. They want to keep the tax in place for us and take an even bigger rake-off.
This crisis is manufactured by the ongoing greed of The Money Party. It is funded by the US Treasury. You pay for it, all of it.

Jul 30, 2011 11:26 PM - Show original itemMartial is coming to America and Canada in slow motion. The train left the station a long time ago. And the cunning conductors are not going to lose their nerve as their train of evil approaches the final destination: mass detention of activists, violent government crackdowns on protests, and slavery for the people.
Corporate fascism, government oppression and private banking tyranny didn't suddenly creep up on America and other Western countries. The crisis of freedom in America and Western civilization was foreseen years ago both by people within government (John F. Kennedy) and by people outside of government.
What blind and arrogant people don't want to admit is that "conspiracy theorists" like Alex Jones, Ron Paul, Jesse Ventura and countless other truth-tellers are the Paul Reveres of this generation.
While the people were sleeping, the same old treacherous banking tyrants that the American founding fathers and colonists defeated in the War of Independence were back to their old tricks and busy re-enslaving the people of the New World.
II. The Show Won't Go On Because The Myth Cannot Hide The Reality Forever
The charade that is taking place in Washington makes for good television drama, but you won't learn anything about what's in store for America and the global economy by paying attention to those clowns. The sad fact is that the American people have already been robbed of their future, their savings, and their country.
Trillions of dollars have been mismanaged, stolen, and treacherously misused to help pay for unnecessary wars in the Middle East and the bailout of Wall Street banks that committed fraud and cheated the public. And the U.S. military will take over American streets, standing alongside riot cops to crush pro-freedom protests, once the American people fully realize that the funds in Social Security and Medicare have been robbed by treacherous bankers and politicians.
On July 20, Catherine Austin Fitts, the former Assistant Secretary of Housing, said on Financial Survival Radio that the fiscal crisis is being used to cover up a much more profound political crisis, saying:We have four trillion dollars missing from the federal accounts. Depending on who you talk to, we have 12 to 17 trillion dollars extended or given to the banks as a gift.
This is not a fiscal crisis, this is a political crisis because we're having a financial coup d'etat. In other words, if you can steal money every year and then say "our problem is we do not have no money," - No, our problem is not that we do not have no money and we're not living financially responsible, the problem is you're stealing. - Google Reading Your E-Mail?
