Obama…Father, President, Marxist: Failure

Nobody Remembers

Last night, I thought Bill Clinton gave the best speech of his life…even though it was full of lies. I thought it was his way of making sure that everyone knew..Bill Clinton would still be a better President than Obama.

There is something about Bill Clinton that just gets my blood boiling, and not because he wanted to prove to the world that he should be President…again.

Tonight, when I got home from dinner just in time to hear Barack’s speech, I only heard a few words, and it was clear…short of a coup, Barack is finished. He gave his usual. …Marxist…Everyone will have EVERYTHING …if you give me four more terms like FDR, speech.

You know…Bill Clinton had that same problem. He wanted to STAY President. The fact that their terms are up in four or eight, just kills them.

Barack’s speech was so lame, I suppose I should feel really good about it…but I don’t. The people in that audience loved it…but you have to be almost a complete moron to not know that Obama can’t do any of those things he wants to do. He’s insane.

As the great political pundit Doug Powers once told me,  “It’s Romney’s to lose.” and I agree. And I’ll tell you why.

The country is worse than any of us realize.

My husband had the week off. Yesterday, we went to the MOST expensive mall in the St. Louis area. This is a big Mall..with two levels of name brands like Macy’s, Victoria Secret, Eagle’s…you know these kinds of Malls are all over the country. We walked for over two hours we walked, and we saw about three other people.

There actually were ten times more people working at that mall than shopping in it.

Today, we went to the zoo. The zoo is free…unless of course you don’t want to walk four miles…in that case parking is $15.00. It’s one of the best zoo’s in the country…and cost a fortune in upkeep. But, I’d say there were again…more people working there than visitors. And it was 86 today…a beautiful day. Even just five years ago, the zoo would have been packed. Sometimes we saw nobody walking around.

But the real devastation of the country hit me tonight. I don’t go downtown much, but in order to celebrate our 20th anniversary, my husband and I decided to go to my favorite fancy restaurant. It sits high atop a hotel right on the Riverfront in Downtown St. Louis. What is so cool about this restaurant is that the whole floor resolves around, it takes about an hour, and you can see the whole city. Picture being on the Empire State Building, having dinner and being able to see all the lights in the city from any direction. 

Only…St. Louis is not New York. The desertion on the streets below were almost…scary. It was almost like I was expecting zombies to come walking out of abandoned apartments.

There were four couples in this restaurant which can hold at least fifty tables.

Our meal: lobster & steak: $275. (with tip)

That’s the most we have ever spent on a meal in our lives. We kept telling ourselves “Well hey…20 years…We’re worth it!” But the truth is, in my mind I was thinking, it felt like our last “meal” …..We might never be able to do that again, might as well have one last wish.

On the drive home, I asked my husband to drive a different way home…I wanted to sight see the old city again.  We went past my mother’s old Printing Company, which is now a motorcycle museum. I had to laugh when I saw a bright blue neon line lighting up the whole roof. It’s look like a big Mexican souped Chevy threw up all over the WWII deco.

“Keep going down this street” I said, “I want to see the old mansions.

Let me explain.

In 1904, St. Louis had a World’s Fair. They had countries from all over the world, and all the states were represented. Some of the houses on this street are filled with old mansions left over from that er

Most of them have no fewer than 36 rooms. They truly are beautiful…I know, I’ve seen the insides of some of them.

Tonight, as we were driving, I was looking at the mansion, and in one of them. I saw a big Screen TV. And in front of that screen was a black man watching…no doubt the Democratic Convention

This house is at least a $10 million dollar home.

And that’s why, I don’t’ understand it, when the race card is played.  We have more black millionaires in the country than white, in accordance to the percentage of the racial population, and yet they keep up the shrill of “free education, free houses, free this…free that.”

It’s really…just legal extortion. Done in the name of racial equality.

When we got home, I was glad to kick off my high heels…(Shoes I no longer like to wear) and turned on the Cable just in time to see the Patriotic theme of Obama’s speech…(What was that picture of stained glass going around the internet?) as if putting the American flag behind you is going to make any of us believe Obama is a patriot.

“I’m not a candidate, I’m President.” he proclaimed to large applause.

Nobody Thinks THAT is Obama’s biggest failures is—his own delusion. America’s cities are dead.. It truly is worse than we all thought. Communism will not solve our problems.

If Obama remains in office, we will never be America again.

God then help us all.

Obama: Putting the Chinese BACK TO WORK…right here.

Nobody’s Perfect

Obama’s still talking about how his main preoccupation will be  “PUTTING AMERICA BACK TO WORK!”

But here we see, Obama’s putting Chinese workers to work…IN AMERICA.

Is he confused?

One thing is for sure, while too many dumb Americans are buying his big outright lies, Obama has the art of lying down almost to perfection.

Watch, and if you’re a union member…kick yourself for being so dumb.

You know if ABC is getting wise to him, his lying is slacking.

Megyn Kelly Goes Greece

Nobody Wins

 Megyn  Kelly was beside herself on FOX this morning. Her eyebrows were practically touching the back of her head as she questioned the “expert” (they have experts for everything) on how in the world were we as a country, not going to go off the “cliff” of economic no-return?

How? How? Why…the only way to solve it, said Megyn, is for Social Security to be cut…and people to retire later…otherwise, America is doomed. By the end of the interview, both Megyn and her expert agreed…nothing was ever going to change because no politician would do the unthinkable: reform Social Security.

Well Paul Ryan did, but I guess she didn’t think of him.

But they are right. There are more than 90 million retiring baby boomers in the country who worked hard all their lives, and they feel that since that money was taken OUT of their paychecks, (With no say in it from them.) they deserve it back.  It’s not fair that their S.S. is going to illegals and thier babies. Obama knows this, and he plays to those exact sentiments. Nobody is sure some older people think he is going to save it for them.

Ha. Ha…ha.

The power thieves in Washington have stolen it from them, and now fiscal Armageddon is being created in all our cable networks once again…to convince the “people” that they need to sacrifice some more for the common good.

It’s communism 101, with a big O in the middle, sold with the American flag waving.  

Hey…We didn’t run up that deficit…YOU did, we say!  But…Washington takes our hard earned money and sends it to the great Baal in the sky…and god knows where else.  They are never accountable for any of it.  I remember Secretary Donald Rumsfeld a few years ago announcing that many billions were missing in the defense budget one afternoon.

“We just don’t know where it went.” he said.

And we all sigh, drink our coffee, and work another day. Yet, you try losing a few thousand dollars from the IRS. You will go to jail.

We…put up with it. Tell me…why?

For those of us in the private sector, it’s like being punished twice, for somebody else’s crime. The banks gambled,…and our politicians took OUR money to bail them out, just so that the people who make their money from “dividends” could keep the money rolling in.

—Or so it looks to the poor guy. There are three classes now: Those who live off dividends: those who have to get up and go to work for a paycheck: and those who live off the ones who go to work for a paycheck.  

America, OUR politicians–have  spent way too much money on wars in countries where the normal guy on the street really didn’t see any threat.

Vietnam? Really…what a waste. Iraq? A waste. Afghanistan?  Well, there’s gold in them thar hills, but it’s China that’s getting it.

And…I don’t know if you have noticed, but the war drums are beating again: Children are dying in Syria. All the networks, are showing the devastation…as if we are being programmed to accept the next war, because it’s for the “children.”  This video shows the heavy cost of war, but the end is misleading. Health care is going to cost just as much if not more, than our “wars.” in the long run. Social Security was going to cost just a few million in the beginning. Looked what it morphed into.

The Baby Boomers say: Hey…Before you cut our measly Social Security benefits, cut the stuff you don’t need: Tillions are wasted in fraud. Government workers are getting paid too much, and their pensions are way out of line with the public sector. Even that playing field. Get rid of half of the government agencies that you don’t need. Reform welfare, food stamps, Medicare, get rid of pork. Cut the pay of politicians.

When Steve Jobs went back to Apple, he fired half the employees, and Apple became number one.

Cut the fat. Kick out the U.N., they are a bunch of money-sucking thieves. Get our military out of every country. Let the Europeans fend for themselves.

We need to rebuild.

Unite the people. Cut out this “global-we are one world citizens” stuff.  Put America and its people firstYou can’t help your neighbor if you are starving.

These are simple rules any fool would do… And yet—

History repeats itself. Dictators get into power…and then their people starve. Every President since Ronald Regan has grabbed more power and ended up being more arrogant than the one before.

Power really does corrupt, and we can really see it in Obama eyes with our big screen TV’s.

I once asked a very rich man that I was dating if he ever worried about money.

“Sure…just like you. Have you any idea what it cost to send your children to Harvard? We worry…we just have bigger bills. “

Nobody Thinks that it could be the same old problem. Money is relative.  The rich don’t want to lose their billions either: so they con the politicians to get the masses pay for everything.

Yes, Megyn had that “deer in the headlight” look on her face. Nobody hopes…she was just trying to scare up the ratings. Nobody Says, “Don’t you worry Megyn…you will be…just fine.” It’s the rest of us that have to worry.

Cashing In on the Cashless

Nobody Wonders

Call me old fashioned, but I like the days when you paid your bills by mail. But, in the NEW WORLD ORDER…call it what you want, they are slowly but surely implementing the cashless society. They want to get rid of all paper transactions..and they want to have access to your money.

You might as well give the local robber a key to your house.

I have been fighting this new world of electronic “Let me get my big brother hands into your bank account.” tyranny for some time. And I know it’s a lost cause. When I changed my TV service from Charter Communications to Direct TV, I asked them to send me monthly bills. “Oh sure.” they said. “We can do that!”

They lied. They took the original credit card I had to give them just to talk to them in the first place, and they charged me on my card, and THEN I get a monthly paper statement that says, “I owe nothing.”

What kind of paper are they saving? They can’t change it, they said: sorry.  

Now, I could see if I was some kind of criminal, but I have a top- credit rating score that I have worked on my whole life. I’ve paid off so many car loans, and other loans, and I’ve only missed ONE payment in my entire life. My credit score is higher than “99.34% of the population” (leaving me wondering who is the other 66% percent?) and so?  I have found out that your good credit score means nothing. Nothing.

What does mean something is they want you and your entire life…online.

After we bought our new car, I was trying to get a lower rate on the loan. But Hyundai has a built-in policy. They gave me a point but could go no further.  (Ford does.) They have a system that everyone goes by, your credit score doesn’t matter whatsoever.  When I went to change my house and car insurance, I ran into the same thing.

They want to take payments out of your bank account—directly.  I had to pay a huge amount up front to get bills sent to me in the mail…for the privilege of them NOT getting their hand on my accounts.

Nobody Thinks this mandatory “We will take it out of your account” is right up there with taking away your property. After all, they can grab whatever they want out of that account  and you are powerless.

If you don’t pay, the big multinationals can get you. If they steal from you, there’s not much you can do. So, it’s no conspiracy now, the elites want to get hold of the internet, and all your bank accounts. They want to know everything.

It’s starting with the EU.

 The European Union is now moving to create a mandatory electronic ID system for all EU citizens that would be implemented across Europe to standardize business both online and in person, authenticating users via a common ‘electronic signature.’ A single authenticating ID would guard access to the Internet, online data and most commerce. It is nothing short of an attempt to phase in a Mark of the Beast system, and a prominent Bilderberg attendee is behind the scheme. This big brother system will be implemented in Europe first and later pushed in North America and the remainder of the globe, as the world is nudged step by step towards a total cashless control grid in the name of ‘safe, verifiable commerce,’ and of course, in the name of “security.”

And while, over in America, we are talking about Bunny Melon giving John Edwards money to hide his girlfriend…Obama is doing this:

A new program being touted by the Obama administration as a solution to online identity theft actually increases the risk of identity theft while providing the government with a national ID system through the backdoor, paving the way for a world wide web in which users will need government permission to access the Internet.

The so-called “National Strategy for Trusted Identities in Cyberspace,” created by NIST under the auspices of the U.S. Commerce Department, purports to offer an “identity ecosystem” under which Americans will be able to protect their information not with passwords but with a “single credential” stored on a smart card, a cell phone, a keychain fob or some other kind of gadget. This will then be used to access a myriad of data, including tax returns, health information, bank accounts and more, amounting to a passport for your entire life.”

Yes, boys and girls, there isn’t a conspiracy for big brother to take over your whole life, it’s being done right before your eyes…and Nobody Wonders how all these people who are being told what a wonderful thing online banking is—I wonder just what they will do one day when they realized, all their money is being controlled by the government. You won’t have access to your own hard earned cash, if they don’t want you to.

And by then, we WILL be a cashless world.

Nobody Wonders..how come nobody is reporting on this?

If they wanted us to pay our bills online, then every bank should set up a system where the owner of the account can email “money” to the said merchant, without the “company” being able to reach into your stash and just take it.

Why aren’t they doing this? Why aren’t they suggesting this to everyone?

Because….

“Power naturally grows. Why? Because human passion are insatiable.”—John Adams

Cufflinks, Canadian Bill, and ?

Nobody Wonders

If you think the “rich’ have just a bit too much money…if you think that Occupy Wall Street and the Tea Party people might just get have something in common…you might be right.

Tell me…would you pay $89.9 milion for a painting called “Orange Red Yellow” ?

Or how about $4.2 million for a pair of cufflinks?

Or how about this: Something that creeps even me out…the new twenty-dollar bill in Canada, not only makes the Queen look like she’s have a bad hair day in the middle of a tree, the twin towers look as if they have naked women on them. What’s even more weird is that everyone is concerned about ..the naked women on the towers, NOT the fact that Nobody Knows why in the world Canada would want to put the twin towers on their $20 dollar bill. I mean, are they planning on building a pair of their own with naked women on them? WTF? How are the families who lost loved ones on 9/11 suppose to take that?

Curiouser and curiouser.

Monopoly or Mobopoly?

Nobody’s Opinion

“It has been demonstrated again and again, from Imperial Rome to Weimar Germany, that epidemic greed is a symptom not of reveling in present triumphs but of a fear that the game is winding down.”–Laurence Shames(1951) “Wall Street Greed is Fueled by Fear” 15 June 1989

Monopoly. Remember that game? I do. I hated it when I was a kid. It was long, it was boring, and my brother always won…every single time. And here I was too many years later…losing again.

Last Friday night it was a night of, “Let’s get away from the Television shall we?” for the family. We have been playing Monopoly on the Holidays gatherings and I always  lose. I was becoming the laughing stock of the family. So…Friday night, I was determined to win. To war. To kill. I was going to be ruthless, something that is completely against my character as a human being.  I watched the other player’s strategies, took the best from each player, and went for the throat.

And I was..ruthless. Not only was I the only player who had any buildings on their properties, I had all the money. ALL the $500 dollars were stacked high in my slots, after I had emptied out the bank with all my winnings.  I had all the railroads, all the utilities, just the right properties, and every time any player landed on my property, it cost them over $1,000. I had  hotels on every piece I owned.

As I watched the faces of my family, members that I have watched time and again…winning, I could see the surprise, the depression, the hopelessness drain from their faces. It wasn’t just a game anymore. I was winning. I was ecstatic, I wanted it all. I wanted to “do it again.”

Now, I’m no psychologist, but there is a theory that to “win” at anything, you must plan, strategize, and show no mercy. Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Rockefeller…politicians… they all play that game.

And winning is the best feeling in the world. Why had I always never tried to win? Was it because I didn’t want to hurt others feelings? That was part of it. Somehow the Christian upbringing came into it. I didn’t like to make people feel bad. I wanted them to like me.

But, I did notice, that unlike when I was a kid, now, I really didn’t care that the other players felt bad … After all…it’s a game. I told myself.

Exactly.  It’s the game. And I thought…is this how it feels to grab the millions on Wall Street?

Whoa.

So, where did this game that everyone has played all over the world come from?

History reports that Charles B. Darrow of Germantown, Pennsylvania, showed the game to the executives of Parker Brothers, during the depression of 1934. It was very similar to one patented in 1904 by Lizzie J. Maggie, a Quaker woman from Virginia. The game was called,  The Landlord’s Game, and was based on the philosophy that the renting of land and real estate produced an unearned increase in land values that profited a few individuals (landlords) rather than the majority of the people (tenants). It was intended to illustrate the negative aspects of concentrating land in private monopolies.

Former Wall Streeter Derk Solko explains, “Monopoly has you grinding your opponents into dust. It’s a very negative experience. It’s all about cackling when your opponent lands on your space and you get to take all their money.”

And isn’t that what the world has witness these last few years? The bankers (with the help of our politicians) went wild, lost trillions, and the whole world collapsed. They did not go to jail, and they passed GO so many times they had to close hundreds of banks just to keep up.  

Or was this a planned collapsed?

While communists like Van Jones use the fact that a bunch of Wall Street thugs got together with a bunch of American Presidents (Van Jones leaves out all politicians) to monopolize the very essence of our money to —spread his communist message around….he just wants that rich to “give it back.”– It’s the wrong way to approach the problem.

The problem is, the rich will never give it back. He’s sitting on Boardwalk with three hotels. It will be the other players on the board that will be placing the money in the pot.  

Because of this tremendous greed that we have witnessed…there is a big push to get rid of capitalism, but it’s not capitalism that is bad, it’s the monopolies formed by governments with their hands in the pockets of multinational companies, some of whom have more money than most countries, that kicks us all off the board.

Nobody Thinks that there is definelty a  well planned global monopoly strategy.

The rest of us want the monopolies of global multinational companies to be broken up and allow more competition, and have us all get a piece of the pie that way. But that’s not part of the plan. Like in Monopoly, once you hold the most property, you almost always win.

Unless you change the game.
****

Nobody Wonders how much the game of Monopoly has influenced the adults walking around on Wall Street at the moment? Or our politicians?
*****

Nobody Thinks that the sheer joy of winning and smashing your competition must be addicting. Heck, if I can get so ‘high’ off a simple game of Monoploy, what kind of “high” do people like George Soros get? Like synapses in your brain being formed to desire cocaine, the same desire to devour your competition to a pulp without caring a hoot about how many lives it destroys, might have started with that feeling that you got as a child winning Monopoly.

I’m not so sure it was a good thing that I never took the game seriously. If Monopoly was invented to teach children about the horrible effects of what can happen when one person has all the control to take all your money, it didn’t really do a very good job. Instead we got a lot of people addicted to winning at all costs, and then smashing everything else around them.  

In the United States, men running monopolies have broken the bank of America….just like I did, and I can bet you, every man guilty of that, Corzine, Bernanke, the Goldman Sacks, Barney Franks…—they all feel like they just won a game of Monopoly. Hoo-rah. It’s not about caring about the world, it’s about winning the game.

And the game is still on: Mobopoly. Pick your pieces, hold onto your money… and roll.

Prosuming the American Picker

Nobody Knows

Have you ever watched America Pickers? Pawn Shop Wars? Do you think all these programs popping up are just demanded by people because they are so poor, or are they “social engineering” classes? Nobody Wonders….

I have a wonderful friend named Missy, whose family used to be the typical middle class, and she is a great American Picker. Missy is an American woman in the style of Sarah Palin…don’t mess with her, or you’ll liable to find yourself up a tree.  She’s feisty, intelligent, loyal, honest, compassionate, and very patriotic.

Her son used to own his own fitness center. Her husband, Mark, used to work for the Post Office. Missy and Mark used to live in New York, but they moved to North Carolina because the New York property taxes were just too much to bear.

Like millions of baby boomers all over America, they are struggling. Mark lost his pension that was promised, and they get a little from Social Security. Mark is good at being a handyman so they spent their lives buying homes, fixing them up, and then sellng them for a profit. They worked hard for their dream, and succeeded many times over.

You know where I’m going with this.

They have downsized to a smaller house, and their son, who lost his business and can’t find a job, is living in a trailer in the back. He just finally got food stamps after a year. Not only that, he is in sore need of major medical attention. He can’t get any medical. He needs dental. He can’t get that either. He’s over 30 and it’s rough. Missy has told me she sees many people moving trailers onto properties, and many people living in one house.

Nobody Wonders how Obama misses this stuff?

Her son has the usual divorce problems, and he is ordered to pay child support… but no matter how hard he tries, he can’t find a job. He went to a job fair and there were thousands applying. The jobs are just not there. And yet, he is still expected to pay child support. He hardly ever sees his daughter and it’s tearing him up inside.

It’s the same in every city of America.

These are the kind of tough Americans the country was built on. Mark can fix, any car, build any house, fix any problem. Missy can cook fantastic meals from scratch, make her own jellies, skin and cook a deer— tell you how to store onions and eggs in sand. Whenever I have a medical problem I go to her first. Her knowledge of just about every single subject on disease is almost unmatched.

Yes, Missy has a very high IQ. She has saved me over my own doctor too many times to count.

But money is tight. And so, the family goes every Sunday and sets up their booth at the local community “fair.” They trade, they sell, they barter— whatever they can. Missy’s son goes almost every day, selling off stuff that he can find, make or barter.  

This is HOW the family makes money: Flea markets.

It was so touching last week, when Missy told me about how Mark found some pajama’s she liked for $2.50 cents at some booth, so he bought her three. It’s a strong marriage. It’s a good team.

Mark and Missy were once middle class. Those days are now…gone. We are not only the food stamp nation, we are the flea market, dollar store, pawn shop, and Criagslist..give it your best shot…country.

Now…Obama and Mitt are going to talk on and on about the “middle” class, but we will have no middle class: most of our jobs are “service.”  If you listened to Obama say today we were on the path to recovery, remember: We owe $16 trillion.

The country is NEVER going to be the same. They just don’t want you to know that, because it’s an election year.

Missy and Mark get by, selling what little they have left, and I must admit, I’m looking around my house wondering..old comic books, old family deeds, heirlooms, old coins, drum sets (oh no!) …but, my house is mostly books. I bought books for knowledge, no collector items. So, really…not worth much. Luckily, my house is paid for. And common sense tells me, I’ll probably live here till I die.

And that’s okay.

But, this is what bothers me. Now that the middle class has been downsized, and we are all feeling the pain, you can look at most of the millions anywhere on the planet and see people barely exiting.  So, the very powerful see this: and see no problem with “downsizing” the people who live in United States to ‘Upsize” the rest of the world. The UN wants a universal purchase tax put on all rich countries to feed the rest of the world. They were going to use global warming to do this, but that’s not working out too well.

And that brings me to Alvin.

Alvin Toffler ( author of Future Shock),  predicted that in the future, we would all become prosumers. We would work at something we loved and would not get paid. He said we would become a nation of barterers and money would become extinct. Alvin said capitalism would become extinct.

He said this many years ago..as if he WISHED it would happen. Now, if you have read me at all, this isn’t the first time I have talked about Alvin And Heidi Toffler.

As I watch American Pickers on TV, I can’t help but think that the popularity of this program is because of our dire economic situation. Obama can say all he wants…

The facts are there: The US deficit will never be repaid, not in our lifetime. The jobs and money will run out…and bartering will be, as Alvin predicted, the only way to eat for many.

Alvin also predicted corporations would do this too:

Many corporations are now moving to a form of internal corporate money so that their subsidiaries can do off the books trades that do not require either taxation or foreign exchange transactions.  Barter exists among government-to-government trades, or big company-to-big company trades, where the controversy about internal pricing may be too high to translate into pricing

And that’s what bothers me…Alvin Toffler and his wife are social engineers. They think capitalism is outdated, as is America. They spent their life living in China. They have been advisers to all the leaders of the world.

Alvin Toffler wants YOU to be a prosumer, which in the American vocabulary means: slave.

Nobody says Alvin Toffler should meet my friend Missy. She’d pick him so bad, he would never heal. We must fight to save capitalism, and put the Toffler’s of the world back in the dark ages where they seem to want everyone else to be…or someday, there will be nothing left to pick.

When you find a “social engineer” who writes books for years predicting the future, Nobody seems to want to ask: Could he predict the future? Or…did Alvin Toffler help shape it?

Nobody Knows, but Nobody’s Opinion on the matter is very strong.

Newt, China, Private Jets, Internet, Nation Building, and Lawrence of Arabia

Nobody’s Notes

Lots of different thoughts today:

NEWT GINGRICH: First up: Rick Perry got out of the Republican race, and very graciously too. But the real topic is going to be on Marianne Gingrich, Newt’s ex-wife, whom the left has given a huge platform to damage Gingrich from getting the nomination. As usual, their timing for sexual scandals is impeccable.

Nancy Pelosi, a few days ago tried to throw us all into Mitt’s ring by saying that Mitt would lose if he got the nomination so the Democrats wanted Mitt to win the nomination: She said that so the many conservatives that didn’t like Mitt, would go…”Oh yeah? Just for that Ms Tufu Buguta, I’m voting for him!” They want Mitt to win.

SO…It’s  been leaked that Newt requested an ‘open marriage’ according to Marianne. His first wife is out for revenge. Seems she didn’t like the limelight, so what’s a better way to stay away from it than to marry a politician?

Nobody Thinks any of us should judge the scorn of an ex-spouse. For instance, I just went out to lunch with an old friend who was outraged at the actions of his longtime girlfriend.

“My God, “I said. “What in the world did she do to you to get you so angry?”

“She wouldn’t go to Disneyland to celebrate my birthday with me. ”

Really? I know. To my friend, who goes to Disneyland at least three times a year, falling in love with a person who’d rather go to Las Vegas means she doesn’t love him enough. He went anyway, and showed me a darling picture of himself with Minnie.

You had to be there—I told him I simply HAD to have a copy.

Maybe Newt wanted a wife who would stand by his side in the photo- ops. Marianne didn’t want to do it.  So, none of us especially those of us who have thought of sending our ex’s to far off planets (that include this Nobody…I’d send my ex to the nearest black hole) should judge Newt on this:but we will!

I keep saying…find some sexual stuff on Obama. Nobody is listening to me.

CHINA: Why is Obama pushing solar energy when China owns 97% of the minerals on the planet that you need to MAKE solar panels? Don’t they get enough of our business? Not only that, they are going to mine the moon and then, where will we go? We won’t have the money to mine our own minerals, and even if some state here had the minerals (and they do) the Democrats would find some kind of rattlesnake feeding ground and claim the land to be preserved. The Democrats would rather make us all suffer with our houses set to 50 degrees in winter, and 80 degrees in summer.

China will now get Canada’s oil, thanks to Obama, which means we will have to now also buy our oil from China too. They are trying to put us back into the stone age…and speaking of the stone age…

PRIVATE JETS Did you know that if you are flying on a private jet, you are not “inspected” at all? The pilot gives the guy a few digits and you’re waved through…with a hand. They don’t even have to see if a passenger is on the No-fly list. 

Think of that next time some TSA agent is feeling up your groin.

So if you’re a rich Saudi, you can charter a 777 or 757 for private use, and there you go! Fly it right into the Capitol, and destroy our government.. and set up the secret government which WILL put us back into the stone age…which maybe is what they are hoping for: BIG Change. And speaking of change….

INTERNET: So many people participated in the internet blackout the draconian law is losing steam, so Obama has said that he is dropping the matter. They are reporting that the Hollywood moguls are hopping mad because they want to SUE China, and all those little nobody bloggers that keep posting Youtube video’s and pictures that they should be getting paid for.

Like that’s really going to happen.

No, what will happen is Obama will let it go for awhile and just pass the government control over to Homeland Security or the Commerce Department, right before the election, and the moguls will be back with their money. 

When Bill Clinton and Boeing wanted to sell our missile secrets to China, they took it out of Congress and the Defense Department, and went through the Commerce Department. Done deal. Good for Boeing, good for Clinton—not so good for the American people who can now be wiped off the planet by a nuclear missile from China. It’s the new godfather way. And speaking of Godfathers:

NATION BUILDING: I read an interesting take on nation building this morning. According to John C. Hulsman, we should take a lesson from Sir T.E Lawrence of Arabia. If you want to nation build, you get the WARLORDS to join you. Our American model of “reform or die” isn’t as affective as accepting the culture you want to conquer, and putting the big godfather warlords already in charge, under our direction.

“A hundred years ago, just 3,000 British officers controlled the whole of the Indian subcontinent, but most of them commanded local tribes in their own language. “

“The Israeli army can relegate skilled Arabic translators among it s reservist to routine guar duty because Arabic is compulsory for Israeli secondary school students. American lack the cultural depth to manage the welter of ethnicities and sects of the Middle East.” –Sparnleger “How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Chaos.”

In other word, we would be better to learn to speak Arabic, give all these warlords one of these:

Gold Lamboghini

And tell them if they do what we want, we’ll get one to every Warlord’s son. We’d save billions.

Obama…the New King of Mickey Mouse

Nobody Cares

Obama is going to be on TV Thursday, standing in front of the Castle at Disneyworld, in order to give a speech to help poor old Disney World out, because Disney World used to be the prime vacation spot for all Americans. Once a year, the American family would load up and drive to California, or Orlando, and go to Disneyland to spent a week having fun with the kids.

Well gee--- since Obama has been in office, nobody can afford the gas anymore. Not only that...but since Obama is having everyone searched at the airports, people don't even want to fly.

The vacation money is going for food. There is no middle class to fill the great Epcot restaurants. Vacations now are to your local city zoo for many people, and even that's getting too expensive.

Disney is hurting. And since Disney is mostly 'service' jobs, our President is saying he is going to help.  He is going to give a speech right on the steps of that great Disney Castle for the good of America: Gather round all you lower wage teenagers and Hispanics! I'm going to help you! Come! Come to America and join in our Disney American Dream!

Has this ever been done before?  When was the last time a President of the United States shut down a Disney park just to make a campaign speech?

On the set of Pollyanna?

Is Disney putting money into Obama’s campaign coffers for this?

Here’s the report:

Tourism officials hope and expect his announcement to have something to do with tourism Visas — specifically tourists from Brazil, China and India.Right now, tourists from those countries have to go through an elaborate Visa process to get in the United States.

Ahh…….maybe they just don’t want to be ‘searched’ at the airports. Why they just walk over our southern border like everybody else?

And how many of those just visiting, will not go home? Maybe they’ll just stay and get a job driving the buses to the parks, serving taco’s to Snow White, or loading people onto the rides at “It’s a Small, Small World.”

If Obama can just get MORE people into the country from Brazil, China and India, they will come and spend money, at Disney world, and that would create thousands of very low paying jobs for the unemployed illegal’s that are already here. Our economy is so bad, the illegal’s are not even coming anymore.

To the elites: this is a disaster.

That’s the official line. The real business is Obama, Michelle and the kids want to sneak in another vacation.

Obama could have given this speech from the Oval office, but then again, I’m sure he wanted a day with Michelle and the kids in the Magic Kingdom, so, it’s nice to be King, and be able to shut down the Magic Kingdom to enjoy just for the day. I wouldn’t doubt if they get Typhoon Lagoon all to themselves too. All the poor sops that had tickets for that day..will just have to go someplace else.

Tell me…the way the Obama’s are seeing the world at our expense, you have to wonder by their actions if they really don’t believe they will be back, and are trying to cram in as much sightseeing on our dime as they possibly can.

You can bet Michelle and Obama will be in Rio for the summer Olympics. Tell me, what haven’t they seen? Africa…China…India,..Hawaii,…Rome, Paris, London…We USED to have ambassadors to do our work. Since when does the President have to go everywhere himself?

What famous monuments will the taxpayers of nations have to shut down next for our American Royals? The Louvre? The Vatican? Havana? Statue of liberty? The Leaning Tower of Pisa? Mecca?

Do you have any IDEA how much it’s going to cost to shut down Disney’s Magic Kingdom for one day? How much security it’s going to take just for him to get INTO the park? How many secret service men are going to have to look through every single trashcan? Not to mention, how many of his friends are we paying for?

Whatever. He’s the king. The rest of us can only dream of going on vacation.

Someday, in the Hall of Presidents there will be Obama..standing next to Lincoln, and Lincoln..will be retired to just sitting down, while Obama’s robot will talk for ten minutes and  be the end and highlight of the show. It will be a speech where the great Obama will talk about “giving service ” and how we all need to sacrifice for the future of  mankind.

You can bet your next trip to Disney on it.  Obama is “sacrificing” his great talents to shut down Disney just to help the poor of Brazil and China be able to come to Disneyland..just like him.

Nobody has ever seen, such an arrogant man.

I hope Donald gives him a good quack.

Nobody Needs More Hetty Greens

Nobody Wins

Most everyone will agree… our education system is…abysmal. While there are many public schools, in areas where the lawyers, doctors, and fairly well-off people live that do a fairly good job, for most of America, the story is very different.

We are so far behind in science and math compared to other countries, it a no- brainer that Mitt Romney and Bill Gates want to import more brains from other countries. The main thing that has separated the haves from the have- not’s is knowledge. And there is one bit of important knowledge that the rich know that the poor are never taught:How to play the stock market.

In every high school in America, that should be a required course. There was no such thing in my high school, and later on, I found out that my own son had no idea or was ever taught in school, how to even write a check, or the basics of finance. And for obvious reasons: our government is trying to transform us into a cashless society, and they are doing a good job at it. There is nothing being taught in our schools about finance: stock markets, bonds…etc.
***
The difference in the rich VS the poor, is that the rich teach their children all about it. And that’s what Hetty Green’s father did.  

Who is Heddy Green? (1834-1916) She played with the big boys, back when Jay Gould, Cornelius Vanderbilt, and John D. Rockefeller went around the country snatching up natural resources, fixing prices, cheating the government, and trying to destroy one another. This was also before the Sixteenth Amendment was passed giving the federal government the right to tax individuals and corporations. (Now, the rich just put all their money in off-shore banks.)

Hetty was every bit as good at the game, she took no prisoners, and she became a very ric multimillionaire, by playing the stock market.

And HOW did a woman back in the Victorian era accomplish this feat?

From The Rich and How They Got That Way

Hetty father and her grandfather made their money in the whale business. As a girl , Hetty sat on their laps while they read the business news and stock market report to her. Later when their eyesight began to fail, she did the same for them. Since Quakers traditionally regarded women as men’s equals. Once when Hetty went to New York for the winter social season, her father gave her $1,200 to buy clothes. She invested $1,000 of the allowance in bonds instead. All through her life she held high society in utter contempt.

When he died, he left his estate of about $6 million to his daughter. Her father had left his bequest in a trust to be administered by two male executors. Hetty’s income from her various holdings amounted to roughly $1000 a day. yet she wore the same dress every day. She bought railroad stocks and bonds. In one year in London, she made more than $1.25 million on her investments.

So, is it any wonder why the lowly working man is angry? With the right investments, a man or woman needs never lift a finger to survive. And today, we have even bigger robber barons—

“Anybody who plays the stock market not as an insider is like a man buying cows in the moonlight.” The robber barons prevailed partly because they were good gamblers but also because they had no ethical scruples, and no person or agency was powerful enough to stop them. By 1900, America had the highest per capita standard of living in the world. It was the heroic age of American capitalism.

They destroyed one another by manipulating stock prices with the blind enthusiasm of barbarians. The act of a corner was to acquire the entire stock of a commodity in order to resell it at a higher price, a perfect corner obliterated the bears who had sold stock short in anticipation of buying it back cheaper at a later date.

Sound familiar?

So…the reason that we are in this terrible mess, is because a lot of very rich people, saw a way to get very rich on the stock market, and they crashed fortunes, nations, and futures with no remorse.

The little nobodies had no clue, because they were not taught in his schools, how bonds, stocks, derivatives, and even capitalism works.  

Nobody Wins, when a nation is kept ignorant by design, of how stock markets work. That gives the cream at the top the advantage.

A man is robbed on the Stock Exchange just as he is killed in war by people whom he never sees.

American have not only been robbed of our money, we have been robbed of our future.

It’s about time, we educate ourselves.

The Final Global Colonoscopy

Nobody’s Opinion

I had a different plan this year for our annual Christmas dinner with the family. I was NOT going to express any opinions about politics, but instead…just ask for…everyone’s else’s opinion— something that is almost impossible for such a political animal like myself. Besides, my family pretty much looks on me as the “looney bin who was never committed” so I was determined to get in better graces by keeping silent.

My son’s great Christmas dinner was over, and we were all marvellously sleepy, and sitting around on comfortable couches, when I thought it was a safe enough time to cautiously take the step— I asked my brother:

“So,..do you think the country will survive?”

“I don’t care anymore!” he barked out. And he meant it. And then..he went into a good half hour of an angry citizen’s tirade. Most of the points made was how ruthlessly they destroyed Sarah Palin, and Herman Cain, and how he can’t get decent health insurance. He was afraid of Obama getting in again, and how Obama was just a puppet, and a few men run the world like chess pieces, and all Obama does is take vacations…etc., etc..”

“Calm down!” said his wife, Kimme. Then she looked at me and said, “We’ll just close up our house, move to the Cayman Islands, become bartenders, and come back in four years.”

She was serious. My brother and his wife have a D.J. business, and the economy has hit them hard…just like millions of other small businesses that are struggling.

Next year, we are being told, by dozens of experts, a great depression is going to hit the whole world. And the “elites” are not going to let this news go to waste..they are already priming the fear factors.

Christine Lagarde, the French women who was “chosen” so graciously to take over the IMF, after Dominique Strauss-Kahn was caught in a trumped-up “rape” in a hotel in New York, and then taken to jail and later released on either—there was not enough proof, or he handed over the right amount of money to the right politician (take your pick) —sits at the head of the class when it comes to more great threats of doom:

 From Drudge:

Part of the problem, she said, has been national calls for protectionism, making it “difficult to put in place international coalition strategies against it.” Lagarde added: “National parliaments grumble at using public money or the guarantee of their state to support other countries. Protectionism is in the debate, and everyone for themselves is winning ground.”

Interpretation: “We, the few elites that run this piggy bank, want the handpicked elites of the EU to control all 27 countries together. We want these parliaments to stop being pigheaded and hand over their countries to us..for us to control, because we know best. We also want England and America to send us more money.”

It’s every elitists most favourite new word: “Protectionism.” They use it as parent would to tell a child they are being “selfish.” for wanting to keep his own toy, and not “share” it with another child. Astonishingly, that’s how many of them look at us: as children to be ruled.  

As Nobody Remembers, President George W. Bush said this very same thing about “protectionism” and how we must never go back to “protecting” ourselves. This was around the time he thought it was a good idea to put the “protection” of our ports in the trusting hands of the Muslims of Dubai— many of whom cannot be trusted.

The Americans knew enough to protest this insanity: It’s one thing to give the toy to another child, but not if there is a chance that the other child could destroy it. Everyone was shocked that the same man, who had stood on the site of the World Trade Center and rallied the troops, could even have the nerve to mention it.

 Just a few days ago, Obama claimed in an interview that when he first got into office, he found out that the country was in worse bad shape than they thought, and so “they” (whoever “they” were) made a conscience decision NOT to tell the people. Of course, he was setting up one of his re-election themes: Uh…it was worse than we thought, and it will take me another four years to work it all out,  I didn’t tell you to spare you the hard news.

 

Wasn’t that nice of him? So, what else don’t they tell us? This from Alex Jones:

The ‘52 Presidents of the Major American Jewish Organizations’ and their “Israel First” followers in the US Congress, State Department, Treasury and the Pentagon will push for war with Iran . If they are successful it will result in a regional conflagration and world depression.

The US and England will be the biggest losers from the Iraqi post war economic reconstruction. Of $186 billion dollars in infrastructure projects, US and UK corporations will gain less than 5% (Financial Times,12/16/11, p 1 and 3). A similar outcome is likely in Libya and elsewhere. US imperial militarism destroys an adversary, plunging into debt to do so, and non-belligerents reap the lucrative post-war economic reconstruction contracts.
(Like China, Japan, Russia…)

Could this man be right? Hasn’t the “I’m against all wars” Obama, the Nobel Peace Prize winner, been getting ready for the last war in Iran? Is THAT why Obama and Michelle have been sucking up to our soldiers and the military this last year..something  they so blatantly avoided in his first year of office?

Could Ron Paul actually be right about Iran? Mmmmm….

My brother, who thinks “elites” rule, might have agreed that the chess pieces are being put into place in order to collapse the world economies, so that MS. Lagarde will finally be “forced” to get her wish: She can then put the final ‘international coalitions ‘ together.

Whatever that means.

Something tells me, whatever it means, it’s so dire, they know a world governmental dictatorship will upset us— so they will tell us at some later date, like after we’re all dead to spare us…pain and suffering.

How nice of them.

My brother ended his tirade with, “They Want a New World Order.” And then he said he doesn’t care if he dies, he is NOT going back in for another colonoscopy.

Little did he know, he pretty much summed up what seems to be coming our way— a global colonoscopy. Not that he cares. He can move to the Cayman Islands, which is a good thing. He won’t have to listen to his sister ranting all her opinions at the next Christmas family dinner.

Next Christmas…Nobody will be able to keep quiet.

Hannon Talks to the American People

Nobody’s Opinion

Some years ago, I was writing to various companies trying to get a “licensee” for my patented product. In every “inventor’s ” book I read, they all warned of the same thing to the lone guy trying to approach a big company.  They warned that all the big companies have the “not invented here” syndrome. This basically means they spend millions of dollars every year to pay people to think up ideas, and so, if some outsider comes along, they will have to sign an agreement that says in long pages of lawyer gobbledygook, “We will look at your idea but we might have the exact same thing being developed at our company (which of course, they don’t have to prove to YOU.) therefore, anything you show us can be ours. And you will…get nothing.”

In other words, you give them permission to steal your idea by showing it to them. You see, if you work for Monsanto, and think up an invention that pulls all pollution out of the air, at almost no cost, that invention belongs to Monsanto. Even if you thought it up in your own time, and on your own dime.

These books always warned you to get at least a “patent pending” before you show your idea to any big company, and when my patents were pending, everyone talked to me. What they didn’t tell you is that if you actually GET the patent, nobody will call you at all. In fact, they won’t touch you with a Joe Biden handshake.

What does this have to do with Daniel Hannan’s great presentation on America?

While Daniel does not touch the subject of “patents” and inventions, he does lay out what happens when you get government taking care of free markets.  He points out the way to wealth for countries is competition between them all, not financial markets controlled by unelected dweebs with good intentions. It’s also why when the big banks buy up all the little banks, and the big multinationals put the little businesses out of work, there is less competition. For example: McDonalds got out of Obamacare…how’s that going to work for you?

This Daniel Hannan speech was meant for all Americans. If you can find the time, it’s a great lesson for us all. Sorry I post him so much…I just think he is saying, more than anyone in America, what we all should be hearing from our leaders over here in the states.

As he basically says, America is the last hope. We MUST not give up on what the founders gave us. 

Enjoy

(The speech is so good, it will feel more like ten minutes, really. )

Tom Beebe’s Tax Reforms

Nobody Gets Email

As many of may or may not know, this dribble the Congress is doing about Bush’s tax cuts staying in our paychecks is going to make us all very happy campers, what they are NOT mentioning is the malicious taxes that are going to go sky-high as soon as Obama is out of office, in 2013. It wasn’t just Obama that did Obamacare, and there should be some kind of law saying that a sitting President and Congress cannot pass laws and taxes, which only kick in AFTER the next election.

HA!

What do you expect? Decency? Honesty? Representatives of the people? We have a liar of great magnitude for a President, and a Congress that is just as bad. Perry’s right…they should all stay home.

This was sent to me by a NOBODY who has given a decent proposal, for serious tax reform. It shares a few shades of commonality with Herman Cain I believe, but it’s his own idea. I’m sure he would appreciate any comments that you would like to give on his ideas.

(Thanks to Tom Beebe for sending this in.)

Part One

 

A PLAN TO REFORM TAXES AND ENTITLEMENTS

What is, to YOU, a fair tax plan? How can “entitlements”, including welfare, Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security, be improved? Consider these ideas and please tell me your thoughts on them.  You can make this plan even better, and you can send it on to your Senators and congressmen to influence their votes.Americaneeds something better, something more honest, and above all something we can all understand.  Please send your thoughts to me too.

Tom Beebe                                                     -or-                  tbeebe6535@yahoo.com

This is a proposal to replace all federal taxes and transfer payments, also known as “entitlements” with a single act. Please understand that “all federal taxes” includes many that we pay each day, such as the tax on each gallon of gasoline, or the corporate taxes which are paid each time you purchase a product or service from a corporation; where else but from you, their customer, do corporations get money to pay taxes? Furthermore, these taxes are multiplied many times on their way from the source of the product to you. Taxes are paid by the retailer with whom you trade. He, in turn, pays his supplier taxes as part of the price of his purchases, and on down the road. You have a right to know, and will be astonished to know, how much you are paying in taxes. This plan is an attempt to reveal that amount by consolidating all taxes into one payment. Remember that by eliminating the hidden taxes, the cost of your purchases will come down drastically.  This is one of two ways this plan is aggressively “progressive”, a term describing taxes which are easier on the lower income households who spend a greater part of their income. The second element of this “progressivity” is the large personal exemptions.

The annual personal exemption is set as 2000 times the minimum hourly wage (2000 = 50 weeks times 40 hours per week). We have adopted a minimum wage as the least a worker should receive for his efforts.  How, then, can we justify taking some of that sum from him in taxes? This exemption is allowed for every adult (20-65) in your household, and is reduced in steps for those younger, and increased in steps for those older, recognizing the differences in the cost of living to these on the opposite ends of the age span. This formula may be too much or too little as the economy changes, so the plan requires Congress to reset the wage each year, In that “resetting”, Congress will be determining the federal budget, which will be forever balanced. Actually, because Congress has overspent for decades, the plan uses the past year’s taxable income times the new flat tax rate, also set each year. Result? As long as the economy grows (as it does almost every year), a modest surplus will develop to pay off the debt over a period of many years. When the economy grows rapidly, the amount taken out to repay the debt is larger; in a recession, that amount is smaller, as is the budget for government spending.

Now beyond “transparency” the idea that you ought to know what taxes you’re paying, and “progressivity”, the idea that taxes ought to be paid (more) by those more able to pay them, what other modification to the idea of everyone paying the same, the “fair share” of taxes should be part of the plan? It’s reasonable that government policy should be designed to maximize growth, again for two reasons.  First, “growth”, an increase in the wealth from which we all share, is in the interest of all. Second, growth means an increasing tax base. That in turn means more money to pay for legitimate government expenditures, like roads, law enforcement and other services without an increase in the tax rate. If this growth in the tax base exceeds the growth in the cost of government services, we’re getting more for the same portion of your income. We all want that.

What contributes to that growth? “Crony capitalism” and corruption   resulted in a lot of special deals that contribute to the growth represented by and for special interests. A plan good for no special interest is good for us all. This plan suggests three things are of universal value in assisting growth. Those three are education, health care and investment. So this plan exempts those three expenses from taxable income. It does so broadly, so that government is not telling you what educational choices you make, what health care (and health care insurance) you buy, and what investments you make, (and charity is an investment). You can make those choices better than can Washington.

Many states and cities have been getting into financial trouble. It is not the Federal government’s duty to bail them out, or even correct the practices that got them in trouble. But if this plan makes sense, if it could correct the revenue problems that the other levels of government have encountered, then the federal government can help them out by making the plan available, optionally, to them. But the feds should not impose anything on those other levels of government.

Finally, after all the exemptions are taken, some will have more exemptions than deductions. Should they be helped, and to what extent? Consider calculating aid by multiplying their shortfall by the flat tax rate. As with taxes, their assistance will be reviewed by and adjusted as part of the budget process each year. That way, everybody pays the same rate from top, the “billionaires” to bottom, the least among us. For those whose income exceeds exemptions, they pay taxes equal to the rate times the excess.  For the least among us, their income supplement, replacing Welfare, Medicaid, Medicare, Social Security and other “entitlements”, is reduced at the same rate. Is this fair to all?

Finally, if you have read plans that embrace sales or value-added taxes in lieu of or in addition to income taxes such as this, consider that an unlimited exemption for savings makes this plan exactly like s sales tax; if what you save is exempt, then you’re only paying taxes on what you spend.
