America Divided...Obama, Acorn, Civil War, Secession, etc.

Time sure has a way of catching up to the truth. Not that I wanted to take credit for recognizing these facts as far back as the mid 1970's (1976 to be exact), but I'm finally happy that others more prominent than myself are waking up to reality. Just last spring (around Easter time) while visiting with a friend in San Antonio, Texas, John (an old friend) said to me, "Do you remember when you talked a lot about a new world order? I didn't believe you then, but you were right on the money! You were absolutely right!"
Why it takes others to recognize what I find is obvious is very perplexing to me. And now after all these years we have nationally known personalities from radio and television recognizing that indeed America's days are numbered...but we can stop this madness. It may take some re-educating the general public who have been controlled by the mainstream media (MSM...which is also controlled by the politic elite [In case you want to know who the politic elite is, just start with Obama and you'll be on the right track]). But if we don't empty the entire United States House of representatives and replace them with ordinary citizens next year (2010) we may be in big trouble in 2012 where we may not have an election at all. (By the way, 2010 is also the time that I predicted the possibility of a civil war...Does that scare ya? It ought to! Just look around you and see how much Obama has divided the country [the link is an example of how Obama divides us with his Acorn goons]).
It also amazes me that so many Americans are still sticking to their so-called favorite political party whether it be Democrats or Republicans...if they only knew they're all in this together. It was collusion by both parties that wrote the FEC laws and other legislative actions that prevent true American Patriots from attaining high office. Meanwhile catch a glimpse of the video below. When I watched it it seemed like I was reliving the the last 33 years all over again.

America Divided, Jefferson & Central Banks, Fiat Currency, and Politics on the Train

In case you haven’t noticed, America is becoming more and more divided these days by politics. I know this is politically incorrect to say, but I’m happy to say it – that’s a good thing. People are waking up to what has been going on for decades in Washington, and is currently happening way worse than ever before. The govt is massively expanding its size, becoming a larger part of our GDP, right as GDP is shrinking in virtually every other area of the economy, even state & local govts.

Half the country seems to think that it’s necessary for govt to grow because we need to provide services to everyone in the country, for free, even if you’re not a citizen. They would be called the economically illiterate half. The other half, the SPDBRNR half, think the govt should return to its constitutional roots, stop the rapid encroachment on our freedoms and privacy, and yes, abolish the Federal Reserve, like Thomas Jefferson would tell us to do. He was kinda smart – don’t ya think? Read his direct quote below regarding central banks:

“The [privately-owned] Central Bank is an institution of the most deadly
hostility existing against the principles and form of our Constitution…
if the American people allow private banks to control the issuance of their
currency, first by inflation and then by deflation, the banks and corporations
that will grow up around them will deprive the people of all their property
until their children will wake up homeless on the continent their fathers
conquered.”

Doesn’t that sound like exactly what’s happened? The dollar has lost 96% of its value since the Fed came into being in 1913. The biggest banks in the land have been given free money by the govt. They pay themselves repulsively large bonuses for jobs done poorly with this free cash, then use absurdly spurious arguments to support this practice. Meanwhile, the other 95% of us have frozen salaries, belt-tightening, lost jobs, and are bargain hunting…and there’s no end in sight at this point. Jefferson NAILED IT!!!!

Back to the govt…in case you’ve forgotten, govt is NOT PRODUCTIVE. Govt sucks the resources from an economy; it does not create value and it is MASSIVELY inefficient and fiscally irresponsible. We are very late in the life of this fiat currency run, as the dollar soon ‘celebrates’ its 38th year being backed by nothing. I’m guessing the celebration will be yet another dollar printing orgy. On 8/15/71 Nixon closed the gold window to foreign states as France’s Charles DeGaulle called the U.S.’s bluff at $35/oz for gold. The average age of fiat currencies is only 35-40 years. The lure of the printing press becomes too great (like monetizing govt debt…), the public loses faith in the currency, races to buy real wealth-preserving assets with their suddenly shakey currency, and the dolar implodes. Wealth-preserving…hmmm…like gold and silver for 1,000’s of years now?

Finally, back to America the Divided (yes…I’ve rambled…sorry). Tuesday evening on the train, I listened to a man & woman talk about how ‘we are sooooo close to finally having govt healthcare, gee I hope it goes thru’. I felt like they weren’t even fellow Americans because this crap is so obviously socialistic and unconstitutional. I kept my mouth shut, since I know if I said a single word, I’d start to get passionate & heated about the topic. But right as I got up to leave, I laid down a copy of some economic commentary that I’d finished reading, and said ‘here’s some reading you might like’. They were stunned into silence as I walked away. Hopefully they at least glanced at it.

Then there is this that I recieved in an email...

On the Cause of Independence

During the Freedom Watch show on The Fox News Strategy Room (online edition), host Judge Andrew Napolitano and prominent businessmen discuss the freedom and independence of the several states of the union.

Judge Andrew Napolitano (former New Jersey Superior Court Judge): In my research for a lot of my publications … I have come across Texas, Rhode Island, and of all places on the planet, New York, reserving for themselves at the time they joined the union the right to secede.

Cody Willard (Fox Business Network Anchor): Yeah baby.

Judge Napolitano: I mean, I would love to see a challenge. I would love to see a state legislature secede and basically tell the Federal government, Get the heck out of our state”, and see what happens.

Lew Rockwell (American libertarian political commentator): Well, as the crisis deepens I think we’re going to see that. I think we’re going to see secession among states. I mean, even in places [in] California seceding from the rest of California. And we’re going to see parts of the United States seceding from Washington DC. That will be a great sight.

Judge Napolitano: Well, then we would be back to Andy Levy’s favorite documents, which are the Articles of Confederation, which he thinks that I discovered.

Lew Rockwell: I love the Articles of Confederation. It was a very libertarian document, and it was a far freer system than even our constitution.

Cody Willard: The great problem with it was, of course, ruinous tariffs between the states.

Lew Rockwell: Right. There were tariffs between the states, and now of course, we have all the impositions of the Federal government on business, which are far worse than those tariffs.

Judge Napolitano: Okay, it’s a cost-benefit analysis…, which was worse? The ruinous tariffs between the states or a monster government that nobody can control in DC.

Cody Willard: I think the Articles of Confederation were basically the slippery slope towards the strip mallification of America, and that’s exactly what we got. We got a cookie cutter of strip malling in America. There’s a Target and Starbucks on every corner at least, hey. Hoo hoo! At least there are no tariffs in between states; give me a break. I’m all for the tariffs and seceding and I want the states to stand up and actually fight for their rights .

This issue has teeth, Dear Reader. Will it bite?
