Exposing the 700 Billion Dollar Bail Out Myth

Our gutless politicians and the "Barons of Greed" (Wall Street styled Banking and Investment Firms) need to tell the American people the truth and end the deception. This so-called 700 billion dollar bail out is just another gimmick.

In fact, it is the lastest political and economic gimmick the political and financial establishment have tossed our way. The American political and financial establishments have been feeding the American people a steady diet of lies for so many years, lies seem like the truth and the truth seem like lies.

The "Big Lie" #1 is the American economy is not in trouble. The American economy has been in trouble for years. The reason why it does not seem so dire is because fully two-thirds of this economy is based on consumer spending. When the American public stops shopping til they drop the economy heads downward.

For years the nation managed to survive because the rest of the world was still recovering from the financail devastation of World War II. Germany, France, England, Japan, China, Korea, Italy, the rest of Europe and the remaining nations that were impacted by European madnes have fully recovered. America's wars have largely kept the nation's economy humming over the past few years.

The "Big Lie" #2 is the global economy has been beneficial to this country. America has enjoyed a low birth rate for a number of years and so has Europe and England. This low birth rate gives our financial and political establishment the illusion that plenty of jobs are available stateside. This insane belief that the economy is growing enough to accomodate the increasing demand for employment has led many American companies to ship jobs and factories overseas. They believe the myth and lie this will make American products more competitive. Nothing is farther from the truth.

The "Big Lie" #3 is the fundamentals of the economy are strong. "Doggie Poop". The fundamentals of our economy have never been weaker. Our steadily weakening economy will eventually collapse the world's stock markets . The reason: America is the dumping ground for the world's gizmos, gadgets and illegal drugs. No other country on this planet has over 250 million thoroughly conditioned "limp-brained" consumers.

The "Big Lie" #4 is China will eventually open its huge population base to American products. Another pile of "Doggie Poop". China is simply waiting us out and our greedy short-sighted financial and political leadership. In the end, China will win the test of wills. China is now the manufacturing center of the planet and they are not going to give up their new found status easily.

The "Big Lie" #5 is education will save us. This would be true if America were the only country on the planet. The America that help win World War I and World II no longer exist. The American population that built this country is virtually extinct. What remains are millions of light headed, educated, functional dimwits that really believe because they are articulate, can think a little bit and have college degrees that they are intelligent. The entire world already knows the average American is an idiot.

The "Big Lie" #6 is the American Spirit will pull us through this. Where is my "Doggie Pooper Scooper"? It's beginning to pile up all over this post. Whatever American Spirit that existed when Bill Clinton became President was throughly destroyed by the time he left office. Whenever a politician says, "I trust the American people", find the nearest commode and regurgitate your food in it. Whatever politician or political leader that repeats this lie, already knows if the American people could really be trusted, he/she would have been voted out of office years before. If our voting public really could be trusted, Washington DC would be empty and the vast majority of our state and local legislators would be in jail for graft and corruption. It's precisely because the voting public cannot be trusted is the primary reason why our political and financial establishment is the way it is and the country is in the sorry shape it is in.

The "Big Lie" #7, this government proposed "Bail Out Plan" will prevent an economic meltdown. Let's just say this, the day of reckoning will be postponed, but not prevented. This post is not big enough to examine over 200 years of lies spewed from the mouths of our political establishment. If you are one of the intelligent Americans left in the country, you will quickly and easily add to this list of lies.

Why Doesn't Washington Come Clean?

The current turmoil in financial markets and the sub-prime mortgage debacle are only the beginning of America's woes and sorrows. Washington needs to come clean with the American people.

We need to know what they have done to our industries and our national wealth. The business community is just as guilty as our worthless politicians. Never before in world history has a free people been so thoroughly deceived by their elected representatives.

America's stocks are over priced and stock values are being artifically manipulated to satisfy institutional investors such as local and state governments. Our nation is drowning in debt and it is just a matter of time before our national lungs run out of air.

Why doesn't Washington come clean and tell us the truth? An economic crash is coming that will make the "Great Depression" seem like a picnic by comparison. Unlike past "Recessions" and the "Depression", America no longer has the inherent growth potential that could bring us out of major economic calamity. The world today is far more competitive than it was 70 years ago and even 30 years ago.

What is needed now is intelligent leadership and we are not going to get it from Barak Obama, Hillary Clinton, John McCain, John Edwards, Rudy Guiliani, Mitt Romney or any current candidate running for President. All these people are part of the problem. As a matter of fact, we are definitely not going to get intelligent leadership from the Republican, Democratic or Libertarian Political Parties.

Will The Real Muslims Please Stand Up

The recent events in the Sudan, should be a warning to every liberal that believes Islam is another benign peaceful religion. If the behavior we in the West are seeing is not characteristic of true Muslims, "Will the real Muslims please stand up." And I'm not talking about Muslims living in Western Democracies. These people are Muslims in name and custom only.

For those of you that missed it, the following is a recap of the Associated Press article.

Gillian Gibbons, a British teacher, is being threatened with execution and 40 lashes for allowing her students to bestow the name Muhammad on a class teddy bear.

Several thousand Sudanese protested in central Khartoum on Friday against the teacher. Banners demanded "Punishment, Punishment, Punishment," as protesters chanted, "Kill her! Kill her by firing squad!" Gibbons, who was sentenced on Thursday (November 29, 2007) to 15 days in jail and deportation, was taken from her prison to a secret location to ensure her safety.

A Gathering Of "Fools"

On September 30, 2007, a large convention of atheist gathered in Virginia to proclaim their eagerness that GOD does not exist. What a gathering of fools. It never ceases to amaze me how so many well educated and intelligent people can so easily become "FOOLS". For it is written: "The fool says in his heart, there is no GOD. They are corrupt, their deeds are vile; there is no one who does good." Psa 14:1 (NIV)


Personally, I don't need to add my comments, "Biblical Scriptures" say it much more emphatically and forcefully than I ever could when it comes to this perverse generation. Because it is also written: "The wrath of GOD is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of men who suppress the truth by their wickedness, since what may be known about GOD is plain to them."

"For since the creation of the world GOD's invisible qualities - his eternal power and divine nature - have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse. For although they knew GOD, they neither glorified him as GOD nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened."

"Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools and exchanged the glory of the immortal GOD for images made to look like mortal man and birds and animals and reptiles. Therefore GOD gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another."

"They exchanged the truth of GOD for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator - who is forever praised. Amen. Because of this, GOD gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exhanged natural relations for unnatural ones. In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion."

"Furthermore, since they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of GOD, he gave them over to a depraved mind, to do what ought not to be done. They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips, slanderers, GOD-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; they are senseless, faithless, heartless, ruthless."

"Although they know GOD's righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them." Rom 1:18-32 (NIV)

The 14,000 DowThe Death Knell For America's Economic System

"Fund Managers", "Stock Brokers" and "Wall Street Bankers" have been toying with the idea of pushing the "Dow Jones Industrial Average" above the 14,000 mark. These people obviously don't realize the world has entered a new Socio-Economic Era that can not support manufactured money for long.

The Federal Reserve needs to pull the plug on this wild speculation before it damages the economy and sends the entire "Western World" into an economic tailspin that it might not recover from for decades.

"Global Socio-Economic Interaction" is much more volatile and unpredictable than most "Economist", "Fund Managers", "Stock Brokers" and "Wall Street Bankers" realize. This intentional effort to keep inflating the price of already overpriced stocks and mutual funds will drive our economy and our nation into economic disaster.

America does not have enough internal industrial capacity to support a Dow Jones over 10,000, let alone 14,000 and relying on foreigners to support our irrational and irresponsible economic behavior is sheer madness. This country has been surviving for 20 years on borrowed time, low birth rates, borrowed money and by stealing money from the public in the form of billions of dollars in hidden taxes and fees.

Unlike the "Great Depression", the room for future economic growth and expansion will not be there. The world today is much more competitive and despite all the diplomatic pleasantries, Western and Eastern Europe, Great Britain, the Arabs, the Japanese, all of South America, Canada and the rest of the industrialized world no longer trust this country. The Russians definitely don't trust us and the Jihadist can't stand us. The Chinese are simply using us because our short-sighted and money-hungry corporate and government leaders have shown them we; as a nation, no longer have credible values, morals or ethics.

Our citizenry is more decadent, backward and functionally illiterate than during the "Cold War". The Democrats and the "Liberal Left" are a frightening bunch of socialist and the Republicans are greedy, self-centered unilateralist. The world will not let us plunder their resources like we have been doing since the end of World War II. The vast majority of the nations on this planet have largely recovered from the devastation of that war and competition for available natural resources and technological advantages will be immense.

The war against "Islamic Extremist" is costing us billions in borrowed money and even as big as America's economy is, there is a limit to the amount of money we can borrow. These debts must be repaid. If this country defaults on its debts, and it will, the rest of the industrialized world will feel the impact. Because the average American is a mindless consumer, when these millions of Americans can no longer "shop til they drop", major economies around the world will go into economic decline. The "European Common Market" will recover, but America won't.

Since more and more nations are capable of looking out for themselves, more countries will opt to invest in "Common Market" countries than in America. America's only edge right now is our superiority in weapons technology. At the rate the Chinese are growing and developing, we won't have this advantage for long. Heaven forbid, if they should ever decide to flex their economic muscle and demand payment on some of their loans.

Therefore, "Fund Managers", "Stock Brokers" and "Wall Street Bankers" should be very cautious about bidding up the price of stocks and mutual funds so they can line their pockets with the people's money. The worst thing our politicians ever did, was to allow the "Barons of Greed" to get their hands on the people's hard earned retirement money. Well..that's "par for the course" isn't it? Afterall, we do have the best group of political scoundrels money can buy.

Over Eating

There is little doubt that many Americans are over weight. The weight loss industry rakes in billions annually on programs and products that work for the few and not the many. Perhaps what most Americans need to do is turn off the television. A recent study done by Dr. Alan Hirsch found a connection between watching televsion and people's eating habits.

According to Dr. Hirsch, in an article written by Jennifer Kwan for Reuters, "people eat more when they are glued to the television." The more entertaining the program, the more they eat. "It seems that distracted brains do not notice what the mouth is doing", said Dr. Alan Hirsch, neurological director of the Smell and Taste Treatment and Research Foundation in Chicago.

Hirsch explored the impact of smell, taste and eating behaviors while watching TV by measuring potato chip consumption.

Forty-five volunteers ate as many chips as they wanted during five-minute intervals over three-week periods while they watched monologues by late-night talk show hosts David Letterman and Jay Leno.

They also were given chips to eat when the television was off.

Hirsch found people ate an average of 44 percent more chips while watching Letterman and 42 percent more while viewing Leno, than when they did not watch TV.

"If you can concentrate on how the food tastes, you'll eat less because you'll feel full faster," Hirsch said in an interview at the Endocrine Society's annual meeting in Toronto, Canada.

"So if that's the case, let's look at the opposite. What if you're distracted? If you're distracted, in theory, then you'd eat more."

Through his research at the foundation, Hirsch has helped people overcome the loss of sense and taste sensation, which typically results in weight gain because the brain does not know when it should stop eating.

The ventromedial nucleus in the hypothalamus, where the so-called satiety center is located, tells the body whether it is hungry or full. If it is inhibited or tricked, the result can be changes in eating patterns, he said.

"People who cook spaghetti all day don't feel like eating spaghetti at the end of the day," said Hirsch. "By being exposed to a smell all day long it's tricking the hypothalamus."

At each session, volunteers were asked to concentrate on the sensory characteristics of the food such as taste and smell. Researchers say these sensory clues, in addition to internal body changes, signal satiety.

But when distracted, a person does not pay attention to either the body's sensations of feeling full, or to the sensory characteristics of the food.

Many studies have linked obesity to watching television and that link is likely due to inactivity, Hirsch said. But perhaps entertaining shows are also contributing. Dr. Hirsch concluded, "if you want to lose weight, turn off the television or watch something boring".
