Apparently the price Paul supporters will demand to behave is internet freedom. That's like ants demanding freedom to eat sugar. Needless to say the sugar owners won't agree. Frankly, they have no power. If they try to disrupt the Republican coronation of Romney, they will lose supporters, not gain them.
SOCIALISM:
Government's bailout of GM gets more expensive every day.
ECONOMY:
Why gold? Because everything else is going to fall in value.
TAX AND SPEND:
Ohio Governor Kasich produces a budget surplus. Once again we see the difference between Republicans and Democrats at the state level.
"While some interest groups will pressure to spend the surplus, Kasich said “We are not going back to yesterday. We are not going to spend this money ... The idea that ‘Oh, now we’re in good shape so let’s just go out and spend,’ that’s how we got in this trouble. We’ve had a long period of tax and spend and we’re not going to do it.”"Good for him.
Are Republicans serious about spending cuts? Pfft. Will voters care? Pfft. Will voters hold them accountable in two years? Pfft. Four years? Pfft. Are we screwed to the max? Oh hell yeah.
I've been reading about a new crash in the next year or half-year for years. These people don't know. The experts, and in this case I agree they are experts, keep staving off economic Armageddon. But it's coming. I don't if it's coming later this year, next year of the next couple of years. But it's coming. I understand that the person who publicly calls it in the right time frame will profit tremendously. But I'm impressed with government's ability to print money to fool people into supporting the declining status quo. When this collapse hits, it's going to be unbelievable because nobody in America has ever experienced anything like it in centuries.
FEDERAL RESERVE:
The European, British and Chinese central banks all lower interest rates.
"China, Europe and Britain loosened monetary policy in the space of less than an hour on Thursday, signaling a growing level of alarm about the world economy, although suggestions of coordinated action were played down."
""It is a surprise that they are moving so quickly. It shows that policymakers' concerns about the global economy have only grown," Mark Williams, an economist at Capital Economics in London, said of the People's Bank of China's action."Another round of looting by the ruling class, and the rest of us just keep getting poorer.
In periods of economic collapse, central banks can keep gold prices flat for a while, much like the Fed has done for a while, but eventually, the people see through the charade, and gold skyrockets.
EDUCATION:
Government schools don't just corrupt and miseducate Americans. They do the same in German schools.
HEALTH CARE:
Finally we know why bees are disappearing.
"An Illinois beekeeper whose bee hives were stolen and allegedly destroyed by the Illinois Department of Agriculture has stirred up a hornet's nest with his questions on why the state did this, and most importantly, what they did with his bees."We should have known government was behind it. Why would they take a guy's bees?
"The state claims the bees were destroyed because they were infected with a disease called foulbrood.
But when the 58-year apiary keeper had his hearing—three weeks after the removal of his bees without his knowledge—the state's "evidence" had disappeared, leaving more questions than answers about the raid on the beekeeper's hives.
Some people, including the beekeeper, Terrence Ingram, suspect the raid has more to do with Ingram's 15 years of research on Monsanto's Roundup and his documented evidence that Roundup kills bees, than it does about any concerns about his hives.
Interestingly, the state's theft targeted the queen bee and hive he'd been using to conduct the research."The state is pure evil. As for the bees, I've seen plenty around here. They probably evolved to get around GM crops that were killing them off, much like the pests the GM crops were designed to resist.
Report that Roberts wrote his own dissent after switching his vote on Obamacare, then he headed to Malta. Pat Buchanan weighs in how Roberts profited from his decision.
"Out of relief and gratitude for his having saved Obamacare, he is being compared to John Marshall and Oliver Wendell Holmes."Give me a break. Bankers, corporations and politicians profit. Republicans profit. Roberts just took the money and ran.
Romney keeps proving he's uniquely unqualified to attack Obama on Obamacare. And again.
Obamacare grants new powers to the IRS.
I'm rarely surprised by politics, but I was surprised at how few Americans were aware of the Obamacare ruling.
As I expected, Obama gets no bounce from Obamacare decision. I'm telling you, Roberts is going to end up being a hero over this crap when Obama loses.
Staying away from doctors can help you live a long, healthy life.
GLOBAL WARMING AND ENERGY:
Nobel Laureate calls global warming pseudo-science.
Global warming frauds will try to promote their cause using the current heat spell. But here's the truth...
"June actually ended up cooler than the normal in BOS (Boston) (-1.25F) and even NYC (Central Park -0.4F) and southeast despite the heat blast the end of the month (-2.0F in Jacksonville). Dulles despite the late month heat wave was SLIGHTLY BELOW NORMAL (-0.6F) while DCA nearer the White House and Congress was (+1.1F) and Atlanta despite the all time record was just +0.1F. In the west, predictably with the cold PDO eastern Pacific, it was another cool start to summer. Seattle ended up -2.6F, Portland -2.4F, Spokane -2.5F."This is a public service announcement reminding people that weather does not equal climate.
Claim of record drought debunked. No kidding. Show me the dust bowl comparison before you make this claim. On a personal note, it's hot.
ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION:
The traditional dream of America still transforms people - this is awesome - but the reality transforms them the other way. This sucks.
WAR:
Videos show atrocities carried out rebels armed and funded by the US and other western countries. According to the Hindu Times, the same world that is funding and arming rebel mass murderers in Syria are now meeting to end Syria killings. I have a plan. Stop funding and arming the murderers. Problem solved.
China stockpiling rare earth minerals. This is one of the real reasons US troops are nation building in Afghanistan.
I'm happy the army is suddenly acknowledging PTSD, but it's a bittersweet. I'm happy that the super-mafia offers PTSD to people it knee caps, but I'd prefer it stopped abusing these people completely, especially since it's using money it stole from me to harm them.
FOREIGN POLICY:
New lab work indicates Yasser Arafat may have been assassinated by polonium poisoning.
POLITICS:
It's disgusting that talking heads suggest Mitt Romney use his wife's disease as a tool to advance his campaign, but it's also inevitable. Romney's best weapon is Obama's policies and their terrible consequences.
You know what happens when you try to make a 13 year old a political hero? He turns.
MEDIA:
Wikileaks releasing 2.5 million Syrian emails, showing once again that Wikileaks is a far more valuable service than any news outlet.
LOCAL:
DP&L blames trees for power outages. Only a government granted monopoly would do this. In the free market, companies innovate and adapt to conditions.
Crazy old political crap rears its ugly head as bureaucrats deny liquor permit for business based on 1959 denial back when county was ostensibly dry.
MISC:
Scientist says the work on the study of the potential discover of the Higgs boson is not complete, proving this pseudo-announcement is a PR stunt. Reporter hints at reason for the timing of this PR stunt:
"This international focus on Melbourne occurs at a time when Australian particle physics is enjoying a significant increase in funding, thanks to the creation of a new Australian Research Council Centre of Excellence in Particle Physics, home to many physicists — including this author."It's all about getting more of other people's money. Actual results will be published around the end of July, but...
"Positive identification of the new particle’s characteristics will take considerable time and data."So apparently it won't be done by the end of the July. What is the significance of finding the Higg's boson? More money for scientists. Let's all celebrate the God particle even though the scientists claiming to discover it won't say they discovered it. Talk about having it both ways.
Bill Gates, like everybody else, using his philanthropic efforts to advance his personal interests. That's human nature.
How much do you want to bet that this so-called dark matter filament is a Berkeland currnent? Moreover, how much do you want to bet the scientists promoting this discovery know it? Why is this pseudo-discovery timed to coincide with the pseudo-announcement of the pseudo-discovery of the Higg's boson? I don't buy the coincidence. It seems to me that the establishment is under great pressure because of the political pressure to cut spending. Therefore they've produced press reports, not science, in order to save their funding of money government steals from others.
Katie Holmes is sexier because she's single, not anything else.
We like to lionize the few while ignoring the many, but this essay remembers the reality for most during the revolution.
"We elevate the events of the American Revolution to near-mythical status all too often and forget that the real revolutionaries were people just like you and me. Caught up in the drama of Red Coats marching, muskets exploding and flags waving in the night, we lose sight of the enduring significance of the Revolution and what makes it relevant to our world today. Those revolutionaries, by and large, were neither agitators nor hotheads. They were not looking for trouble or trying to start a fight. Like many today, they were simply trying to make it from one day to another, a task that was increasingly difficult as Britain’s rule became more and more oppressive."Our Founding Fatherss, while generally safe, did suffer some risk. Many lost their lands. Some were killed. The British chased Thomas Jefferson out of his home. But have you ever known a modern American politician to risk his own life, property or family? Hell no. War is a racket. Like everything government does, it enriches the richest and impoverishes everybody else.
No offense to Daniel Radcliffe who did a great job as Harry Potter, but let's see how that works out for you.
