Free kibbles

RIGHT TO KEEP AND BEAR ARMS:

Being on the terrorists watch list doesn't stop you from buying guns, thank goodness. Government considers every American to be a potential terrorist. You have to be convicted of a crime to lose that right.

FEDERAL RESERVE:

Great observations about Bernanke's press conference:
"At one level, it's absurd that the entire world is hanging on the words of Ben Bernanke. He hasbeen wrong at literally every major point in the housing bubble and then crisis. So why should we care about his predictions concerning the economy or his recommendations for how to end the slump?The answer, of course, is that the Federal Reserve has the power to destroy the world economy. People look for meaning in each of Bernanke's semicolons because they might give a clue to the Fed's next policy move. The awesome power of the Fed has made the rest of us behave like the terrified family living with that creepy kid from the Twilight Zone."
It's that way with all of government. The stock market should be about how companies perform, not what the president, Congress, the courts or the Fed does. Your success in business should be about your performance, not what the president, Congress, the courts or the Fed does. But that's not the case. What government does is far more important that what you do. Think AIG. Think Citi. Think GM. And 2008 wasn't the start of it. It's been that way for over a century at least. Our government is unAmerican. It's an abomination. Here's a little skepticism of Bernanke:
"Call me cynical or paranoid (or both), but I actually try not to get too worked up about Ben Bernanke's public statements. I really don't think powerful bankers would go to all the trouble of establishing a cartelization device only to hand over the keys to a Princeton professor."
If the cartel wanted to go a different direction than Bernanke, he wouldn't be chief, so he's still worth watching. But like any aristocrat, his job is to lie. I don't believe for a second that Bernanke was wrong all those times. I think he was lying. His comments about expectations of future inflation are telling us he's using words to dampen those expectations even though he knows he's creating inflation.

Bernanke is fueling a bubble in the art market. And every other market. We're suffering in the most prolaficate bubble economy ever, as depressed as it seems. Everything is a bubble.

EDUCATION:

Police attack, beat, taser and break arm of student who refused to pull up his pants as ordered using the excuse that his pants violated school policy. Then they arrested him for resisting.

HEALTH CARE:

The FDA, IRS and FBI team up to raid, steal the products of, and shut down a business selling alternative medicines for autism and Alzheimer's. Their crime? Not getting the government's permission to sell the products. The only thing the government is good at is destruction.

After a year long sting operation, the Feds raided and shut down an Amish farm for selling raw milk.
"“It is the FDA’s position that raw milk should never be consumed,” said Tamara N. Ward, spokeswoman for the FDA"
And it's willing to kill anybody who disagrees by sending armed thugs to shut down dissenters. Anybody who can't see we've devolved into a fascist state is delusional. Even people in Maryland and D.C. are beginning to see the light.

GLOBAL WARMING:

It didn't take long for some fraud to blame the tornado deaths on global warming. These frauds are sickening.

POLITICS:

Obama refuses to release his school transcripts.

MISC:

Apparently genes make people into yes-men. I must not have any of those genes. I keep saying that we'll never get rid of government because its in our genes, and this is more evidence.

Superman renounces US citizenship. It's a shame our government's ideals have diverged so far from Superman's he had to do this. But being a tool of the UN won't be any better. Too bad he didn't go the other way and just embrace being an individual.
