It’s not difficult to see that the foundation is crumbling…
A new Gallup poll has found that already low “confidence” in our system of government, our economy, the media, banking, big business, religious institutions and watchdogs is further eroding.
“Americans’ confidence in most major U.S. institutions remains below the historical average for each one,” a Gallup spokesman said in a news release.
[…]
All in all, it’s a picture of a nation discouraged about its present and worried about its future, and highly doubtful that its institutions can pull America out of its trough.
There is plenty of good reason, with evidence uncovered daily, weekly and consistently throughout the years of the hypocrisy and failures of government, the failed promises of politicians, the lies and spin of the mainstream media and newspapers, the greed and exploitation of the financial sector and the “just us” mentality of above-the-law enforcers who are supposed to uphold justice.
Just check out how little faith remains in the structure of, well, just about any institution in America, by the numbers:
Only 8 percent have confidence in Congress, down by 16 points from a long-term average of 24 percent – the lowest of all institutions rated.
33 percent have confidence in the presidency, a drop from a historical average of 43 percent.
32 percent have confidence in the Supreme Court, down from 44.
28 percent have confidence in banks, down from 40 percent.
21 percent have confidence in big business, down from 24 percent.
24 percent have confidence in organized labor, down from 26.
24 percent have confidence in newspapers, down from 32 percent.
21 percent have confidence in television news, down from 30 percent.
52 percent of Americans […] are confident in the police [57 percent historically]
What else can be said, but that the system is broken?
Obviously it bears little resemblance to the one envisioned by the founding fathers and their emphasis on separation of powers and limited government.
None of the three branches of government are trusted by even close to a majority of the American populace… maybe that’s to be expected, with frequent media criticisms of political figures in a polarizing two party system.
But other pillars of society have lost their backing of the public, too – in astonishing numbers that show not only that the American dream is dead, but that private institutions are widely perceived as being just as corrupt as public ones (or worse).
To top it off – this perception is entirely deserved. The aftermath of the 2008 financial crisis consolidated the power and wealth of the big banks, and gave the Federal Reserve ultimate power over the economy, while average Americans suffered greatly.
Scandal after scandal revealed that corruption for what it is.
Media scandals – such as Brian Williams’ fabricated war zone stories and George Stephanopoulos’ attempt to conceal his conflicts of interest with the Clinton Foundation – have left a bad taste in the mouth of media consumers already facing fake news indigestion.
The factors are piling up beyond our capacity to excuse them away: fatigue from endless wars and threats of terrorism; cynically-false promises of hope and change; the repeated, brazen trampling of civil rights; a sharp decline of opportunity at the hands of economic recession; trade deals written in secret to enrich corporations; the rise of job-crushing technology and more have all sapped at the American spirit.
Whether most Americans follow these developments or not, they instinctually sense them. No one trustworthy is steering this ship – worse, no one may be at the wheel at all.
Who or what can turn things around?
That remains to be seen, but few will be willing to buy into the system if it remains on course.
The loss of confidence in the system ultimately relates to the loss of confidence in the freedom of the individual.
It is strong-willed and determined people who have always made this country, and any other, strong and vibrant.
The constant detriment of individual rights and the endless calls to transfer power to the collective – whether inside or outside of government – is the real source of the problem that this Gallup poll reflects.
Our best hope at a better world should start there. Is it still possible?

It is sad to me that the numbers are as high as they are. People have not been educated by design. They can still self educate though. It is sad but I just don’t think they care. It is all about me me me.
We can restore this country to greatness. We must love each other and be willing to help each other. Is that still possible today?
I don’t it’s possible as things are now. I don’t trust any of these agencies either, and why would I? Everything is such a huge damn secret anymore. Transparency, my ass!
Just imagine what those numbers look like throughout the world? I’d bet it’s just as bad bad or worse everywhere. It’s a reflection of global industrial civilization in decline. You can’t have infinite growth in a finite world. It never works but the central planners think otherwise.
When a car has four flat tires,
how can they say it is only inflation challenged.
They’re only flat at the bottom!
I’ve been wondering; since they’ve started letting hillary fall in the media for her past deeds, and it seems the people are not going to vote for her anyway—who’s the gray man? Who’s the wolf in sheep’s clothing that the elitists have chosen to replace obama, if not hillary?
The only other alternative that I can see, is that they plan on installing hillary no matter what we say or do, which would be another big slap in our faces by the elites.
The message? WE DO WHAT WE WANT, AND YOU HAVE NO SAY IN ANY OF IT.
It will be Elizabeth Warren. She will save the day even tho she does not want to (so humble)
The church dropped to number 4 with the police just ahead of it on the list. Spiritual abuse is alive and well in churches. Nones and Dones. God is not pleased with the lack of power in His people and lack of unity and trust in Him and thus the problem. It is with the powerless church. He is coming soon to care for His sheeple!!!!
Insanity in Washington…
Republicans have revived Obamatrade and are preparing to vote on it again today in the House.
TTP Creates ‘global governance superstructure’…
“The Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) would turn over to globalists the power to issue regulations about U.S. trade, immigration, the environment, labor and commerce.
It’s called a “living agreement,” which means the globalists can amend and change the text of the so-called agreement after it has gone into effect.”

A good time to flood your congressperson with demands
toll free 888-804-8311
Politicians would eat it’s own tail if it got them votes. It just proves that it’s the Corporations/Wall Street/TBTF and TBTJ Banks that pull the strings of the politicians and those in CON-gress.
In other words “Crapitalism” at it’s finest.
Contact your rep. in Congress…
Tell them to Vote NO on TPA, H.R.2146!
The vote is expected to take place at NOON ET today, so please call this morning!

I’ll call that number too. Thanks
I think you are correct in your assessment of the world situation.
It is bad, and getting worse by the week. However; there are communities and towns that haven’t been regulated and lawed to death. Communities that still live by old methods of farming and preserving. communities that live with some of the modern conveniences, but aren’t totally dependent upon them.
Most of main stream North America, is totally dependent upon a system that is sucking the life out of them.
But, it is the fault of the people that want their modern societies to be “cutting edge”. Cutting edge technology has to come with a mindset and sadly, that mindset wreaks of liberalism. Liberalism wreaks of self-fulfillment. Self-fulfillment wreaks of selfishness. Selfishness wreaks of pride. Pride wreaks of evil. Lucifer is the poster boy for Pride. Ultimately it is his future demise.
In these last days….
2Ti 3:2
For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
2Ti 3:3
Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,
2Ti 3:4
Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;…
There must be a turning point, now, or we have come to a point of no return, and the center of our commerce will fall, and soon.
5having a form of reverence but denying its power. And turn away from these!
6For among them are those who creep into households and captivate silly women loaded down with sins, led away by various lusts,
7always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
8And as Yoḥane and Mamrĕ opposed Mosheh, so do these also oppose the truth – men of corrupt minds, found worthless concerning the belief;
9but they shall not go on further, for their folly shall be obvious to all, as also that of those men became.
10But you did closely follow my teaching, the way of life, the purpose, the belief, the patience, the love, the endurance,
11the persecutions, the sufferings, which came to me at Antioch, at Ikonion, and at Lustra – what persecutions I bore. Yet out of them all the Master delivered me.
12And indeed, all those wishing to live reverently in Messiah יהושע, shall be persecuted.
13But evil men and impostors shall go on to the worse, leading astray and being led astray.
14But you, stay in what you have learned and trusted, having known from whom you have learned,
15and that from a babe you have known the Set-apart Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for deliverance through belief in Messiah יהושע.
16All Scripture is breathed by Elohim and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for setting straight, for instruction in righteousness,
17that the man of Elohim might be fitted, equipped for every good work.
The system that is sucking the “life” out of them, first and foremost is the church.
Well, every time you turn around you either see a woman or a minority in charge of whatever organization that is fucking something up. I see one of the problems right there. White men are the most creative and intelligent and when they were exclusively running things America had no equal scientifically or militarily. Now look at this hellhole run by idiots. We ain’t worth a shit at nothing. I realize this has been done on purpose from the top down, but damn.
ummm
it’s pretty much white men who have screwed things up
isn’t it???
it isn’t Mrs George Soros and Mrs. Koch who are the problems now
is it ???
Wrong answer. You know exactly what I’m talking about unless you are still really asleep.
oh
so it is Mrs. Soros and Mrs Koch
my bad !!!
women and minorities the fly in da ointment ???
lets turn things back over to the white guys and let them run the world
oh wait……
Well, MR Soros and MR Koch are members of The Tribe, and THAT is who is screwing up your world (for fun and profit).
I believe the Kochs are Catholic….
You know, they want to replace Thomas Jefferson with a vagina now—HOW DEMEANING To Tom. I wish we could ship all of our feminists over to Syria, where they could try to impose their will on sharia law… 🙂
The communists and faggots, disguised as socialists, progressives, and liberals, have been successful in removing God from Western Civilization institutions, and society in general.
When you take God out of the schools, the kids bring guns to school.
When the churches are perverted, corrupt to the core and morally bankrupt without any moral authority you develop a society of cronyism: with special groups of people receiving favors and privileges to the exclusion of the majority.
The Republic is ours if we can keep it. Engage, by ballot if possible, by bullet if necessary, but engage.
Complacency is the last step to slavery. 🙁
Not mine, but I had to pass it along:
“A Man died and went to heaven. As he stood in front of St. Peter at the Pearly Gates, he saw a huge wall of clocks behind him.
He asked, “What are all those clocks?
St. Peter answered, “Those are Lie-Clocks. Everyone on Earth has a Lie-Clock. Every time you lie the hands on your clock will move.”
“Oh,” said the man, “whose clock is that?”
“That’s Mother Teresa’s. The hands have never moved, indicating that she never told a lie.”
“Incredible,” said the man. “And whose clock is that one?”
St. Peter responded, “That’s Abraham Lincoln’s clock. The hands have moved twice, telling us that Abe told only two lies in his entire Life.”
“Where’s Hillary Clinton’s clock?” asked the man.
“Hillary’s clock is in Jesus’ office. He’s using it as a ceiling fan.”
Enjoy. 🙂
Now thats funny
@ durangokidd
I attended a public high school in the mid 60s. Every h.s. in the area had a rifle team. Fifteen year old kids carried their cased .22s through the hallways to put in their lockers. Everyone paid as much attention as though the kid were eating a Big Mac. I remember reading Proverbs and John the Beloved Disciple in English class. Fights tended to be with fists. The biggest international problem was whether that Nasser guy was going to close the Suez Canal.
Cronyism isn’t an invention of the last 20 years. Known as anti-trust, it’s had
regulators’ attention since early in the 20 th century. Cartels and (forget the Japanese word, but they have it too) don’t depend on religion. (Unless you’re one of those people who believe the Joos are responsible for everything) It’s economic. They can pray an hour on Sunday while skinning the rest of us alive the rest of the time.
God, Alla’, Jews-& Religions are what most wars are fought over. These cult idiots willing to die over, that their big religious hoax is more believable than their opponents big religious hoax. Its fun to watch idiots self sacrifice for their Superstitions.
“When you take God out of the schools, the kids bring guns to school.”
Kids brought guns to school BEFORE they took God out of schools, just not to shoot EACH OTHER with.
Point taken. Pocket knives too. 🙂
Are you on of those feminists? You know good and darn well the ones you speak of are globalist scum. I’m speaking of men who love their country.
I have to agree with you Zero. Very few minorities are capable of running countries or corporations.
Notice, I did say few. Evil is colorblind and has no sexual preference.
When a nation allows the likes of billery, bush, boma, and pelosi, etc.etc, to be in positions of authority, you get a nation falling towards the abyss.
Evil begats evil and destruction. When souls have been sold and overtaken by demonic forces, then the forces all are working towards one thing…..chaos and destruction.
Why? Because chaos brings out the worst in the moderately spiritual souls, and then they fall into the trap of demonic forces as well. Satan is after one thing and one thing only…more souls. His power is working in full strength to “test” the hearts of men upon the earth. God is allowing men to reap what they have sown.
Unless we see a revival of the majority of the nation of USSAG, we will be in mega chaos by this time next year. We haven’t begun to see evil, like will prevail throughout these last days, until the Gog/Magog event whereby God sets His authority in plain site for all humanity to witness. That is when the shift begins. That is when the final division begins. That is when the “final revival for survival”, begins, and the dominoes will exponentially fall.
Pack up, prep up, and look up!
It is time.
Very true.
Point, They are good at what they do…Too bad they aren’t on our side.
I agree with you. Of course, I’m white which isn’t PC anymore, and I have a very successful white husband, father, brother, and five sons. It was better then than now. I see that the House caved and passed the fast-track Obama TPP bill, and goodness only knows what’s in it. No wonder we’re angry and depressed.
So I guess in your opinion, Both senior and junior Bush, Clinton, Reagan and so many more didn’t do anything to mess things up?
Please!
NO!!!!!!!

0.000001% chance is still a theoretically possible chance.
There’s a big vast difference between (theoretically) possible and (realistically) probable.
———-
The general idea of this post is loss of trust in Institutions and (Big aka Collective aka the Dem Libs and RINO Enablers) Government.
The difficulty (at least for me) is not to behave like Ferguson or Baltimore rioters and protestors.
They’re fighting against the System.
We’re fighting against the System. (We = Preppers)
What makes us preppers better than a Ferguson/Baltimore protestor?
I would say that our justification is better. It’s valid. And true.
Of course, they’d say that their justification is better, and valid, and true.
Oh well. Sometimes you can persuade. Sometimes you can’t.
Our justification is far better. If the protesters in Ferguson and Baltimore burned down there communities and stole everything they could. Are they really protesting for justice? They hurt innocent people and acted like animals.
There is no justification for what they did!
I totally agree Mike.
Our (prepper Constitutionalist) protests against collective totalitarianism (aka Lib Fascism) has far more justification and reason than the Baltimore/Ferguson protests about White Establishment/Law Enforcement Racism.
I think you have it wrong about the “uneducated” not caring about our institutions… it’s the opposite, it is the educated, informed people who have no confidence in our institutions.
An no, this county cannot be restored to greatness–not with flag waving, nor prayer, nor though building up our military further… it can only be restored if it is broken apart into smaller more manageable nations–that can actually produce a usable product made by people who are not members of a communist trade workers union.
Amen Mike
I DON’T TAKE POLLS, NEVER HAVE. It’s nobodies business what I think or how I vote.
Any country that would reelect Obama to a 2nd term is already lost. Great thing is it really doesn’t affect my daily life. No debt and no healthcare, live day to day.
Too many people have a vested interest in bringing this country down. They find ways to circumnavigate the system, our president being an example. They broke the system because they don’t like it,it doesn’t serve their agenda. The rest of us let them do it by ignoring what is going on and it may be too late to correct it. With our debt and lack of will to correct we’ll probably collapse from within.
It’s not simply a matter of not having faith in them.
A lack of faith in some institution, can simply be a reflection of mere incompetence in those heading that institution.
No….what we have here is that people are beginning to despise the very institutions themselves. And this is because we are not dealing with mere incompetence on the part of those heading those institutions. It’s because these institutions of morphed into institutionalized tyranny or agents of tyranny.
We are approaching July 4, 1776 once again. Read the first few paragraphs of the Declaration of Independence and notice the parallels with today.
I do read the Declaration of Independence on July 4th every year…cry a lot in remembrance of how it used to be, drink a few and go to bed. I can’t bring myself to celebrate independence that doesn’t exist.
I refuse to participate in a lie.
That rings true for me too. We should have a mock funeral this July 4th – celebrate it with music and a good time like New Orleans style.

All the institutions listed above are ripe and litered with criminality. How many times do we need to be ripped off to say hey we dont trust them. We can burn most of theae failed institutions down to the ground. Im ready to start over with a new Government but using same old US Constitution as the blue print.

I know I have no confidence in any of the above mentioned systems! We would have to have some kind of reset to reboot this country to what it once was!
Momma D,
I totally agree with you! and the reboot will have to have NO old politicians (not age) all that are there now either are on the take or scared to do anything and all need to be replaced.
Who ever had confidence in the banks, organized labor or the Supreme Court anyway? Geez Sheep!
You must be too young to remember when banking was an honest profession, and bankers were honorable men. I am not. My father-in-law was one of those men, and I still hold reverence for his memory.
Organized labor, yeah. They never were anything but looters and criminals, combined with political hatemongers. My grandfather lived through the police strike in Boston in the ‘teens. It was largely the Irish immigrants taking their hate for England out on the good citizens of Boston, who had nothing to do with their grievances.
Henry Fords goons almost beat Walter Reuther to death in 1937.
Organized labor seen to it that the working people got a piece of the economic pie. Companies unhappy with this arrangement fled to the 3rd world to employ labor at a wage that they themselves could not afford to purchase the goods they were making. The largely non union textile industry fled the US because $12-$15 per hour was entirely too high a wage to pay when 50 cent labor was available in Asia.
Organized Labor helped to create the great US middle class.
But now is destroying the American dream and the middle class.
there are virtually NO unions in my state
and we’re pretty f_cked up
wonder who did it ???
the teachers union is in your state and the seiu. the 2 biggest in the country, if not the world.
ummm
that is a BIG negatory
teachers in my state are not unionized
AND
they are among the lowest paid in the entire country
Texasprepper
As I stated the US Textile Industry was largely non union and regardless the hourly wage is in the $12 – $15 / hour range. Those jobs fled to Asia as 25 cent – 50 cent / hour labor can be had.
Unions helped to facilitate the American Dream. Those Union workers had the money to send their kids to college. They had the money to buy new cars and homes. Hell the best of days of the US just so coincidently coincided with the highest rates of Union membership. Interestingly the highest income tax rate in the 1950s was 90%.
Facts.
Bankers and Wall Street are destroying the US.
Union propaganda, written in Moscow, spread throughout the USA since WW1. I am sick to death of hearing it. The American middle class existed long before the union movement.
As far as the textile industry goes, it was either move to lower labor cost areas or go out of business when foreign companies flooded the market with goods made in those same low labor cost areas.
Old Coach–the unions got you a five-day 40-hour work week. The unions got rid of child labor. The unions got you sick pay and vacation days. But if you want to go back to the good old days, you’d be working seven days a week 12 hours a day with no benefits and your six-yr-old grandkid working next to you.
“the unions got you a five-day 40-hour work week.”
1) No, Henry Ford did.
2) What kind of fool works 40 hours a week?
3) Intelligent people create their own jobs, and set their own hours. Slaves look for a good “massa” to serve.
“But if you want to go back to the good old days, you’d be working seven days a week 12 hours a day with no benefits and your six-yr-old grandkid working next to you.”
Maybe instead I want to go back to the good ole days of sitting in ease and comfort and watching the crops grow, with no alarm clocks to wake me or appointments to keep. Or maybe I already did this, and am living the life of my dreams while you and your ilk are convinced there is no other option but the miserable life YOU’VE chosen for yourself.
Union propaganda?
GTFOOH
40 hour work week, paid vacations, sick pay, workmen’s compensation, a pension; all the product of both collective bargaining and the voting power of labor.
Mr Frick in the Steel industry literally worked men to death in dangerous conditions and if injured you were fired and replaced with some starving individual willing to die at his job. You were paid in company script good only at the company store too. Then came the Steel workers Union. Treating labor fairly is unacceptable so, “We’re living here in Allentown” they were the first to go. After the formation of the UMW under John L Louis mine fatalities dropped significantly and that company store, company script ended too. Propaganda? Nope just facts.
Your right on the Textile Industry It didn’t have one damn thing to do with Union Labor and everything to do with corporate greed. Its a race to the bottom as you compete now with virtual slave labor. “How do you compete with 50 cents an hour labor” ; “Make 49 cents / hr”.
I’ll agree with you, but only up to a point. The unions WERE necessary, 100 years or so ago. They served their purpose, but were ultimately corrupted. They now ONLY exist as a money laundering scheme to send tax-payer money to the democrat party. Very little of what they do actually benefits their members anymore. They are corrupt, criminal organizations, nothing more. Anyone who believes otherwise is lying to themselves.
After Hurricane Sandy, unions stopped free help at the NJ state line. NC sent disaster relief teams there with food, workers, supplies, laundry trucks, shower trucks, etc., but the unions turned them back. Anyone who would do that to the citizens of their own state is worthless.
I thank God that I have lived most of my life without the current breakdown to worry about. It was tough sometimes, but I managed to keep going, and in the end have a small pension from a very good company that has enabled me to live out what remains of my time on my BOL “farm”, far from the perils of city or suburban living. I pity those who are younger and cannot do what I have done.
To those who want to blame my generation for the present breakdowns, please note:
It was NOT my generation that took:
The melody out of music,
The pride out of appearance,
The courtesy out of driving,
The romance out of love,
The commitment out of marriage,
The responsibility out of parenthood,
The togetherness out of the family,
The learning out of education,
The service out of patriotism,
The Golden Rule from rulers,
The nativity scene out of cities,
The civility out of behavior,
The refinement out of language,
The dedication out of employment,
The prudence out of spending,
The ambition out of achievement or
God out of government and school.
(I have never cut-n-pasted anything the the forum before, but this was just too good to pass up.)
Coach
Thanks Coach.
An excellent bit of goodness for us to remember. I am firmly in the camp that WE, CAN change for the better and restore integrity to some of the institutions. It WILL be an ugly process because of the selfish self-interests of those involved. They long ago subjugated THEIR integrity for selfish power and personal gain, and we the electorate let them get away with it, because we don’t “want to make any waves”. Screw that nonsense. Swamp the Boat of Political Expediency, if the political whores and pimps drown, so be it, society is far better off without them all.
Never Give up, Never give in, never, never, never.(Winston Churchill) Nor will I. Screw them, they exist ONLY because we let them. Time to clean the house.
Yes, that was too good to pass up, thank you.
Coach; Great words,but its has to be our generation that restores it!!! Get up and do it!! “Be the change we have to see”
May god bless you and keep you always coach!!!
If you didn’t, then who did?
Is it all the millenials’ fault? I was born in ’83; anything before 1995-2000, I had no power to change. And all my life things have been as you describe. So is it my fault?
Was it the government?
If so, who are those people funded by?
Nathan
Every generation has allowed freedoms to be taken. It is not the millennial’s fault. It to be honest is sadly all of our faults.I can only hope that enough people wake up so that we will have the power to correct it.
I blame the people who were alive during 1913. I blame the people who were alive during the Social Security Act’s passage. I blame the people who thought the War on Poverty was a good thing. Idiots that gave away freedom for a carrot. While the Act of 1871 truly destroyed our Republic, I do find it harder to blame those people as news was harder to receive, and the nation had just been through a war. However, all of the other events were pretty big issues.
Have you ever once paid taxes? Then you too are equally to blame. Especially if you’re still paying them.
You are right coach. It was no particular generation. Every generation since 1913 has let small things just slip away. No generation has made a stand because the people in power have been patient. They just slowly take freedom.
This country can never go back to the way “it was”. As stated in a previous post, there is too much greed, lies, and corruption that can’t be eliminated. We are slaves to taxes, regulations, ordinances, and decrees (phone and pen) that are TNTC (too numerous to count) Look at the tax code, it’s not fit to be used as toilet paper, but it’s used to intimidate and bully the citizens to “comply” to the govt. system of unfair taxes and penalties. It all trickles down from the fed to the local, but it’s the local tyrants that really take the cake with 6-7 figure salaries, benefits, pensions and all the other perks that we as “slaves” pay for. When it goes down, I hope to be around to see the property assessor and tax collector offices burn to the ground.
I am related to Pretty Boy Floyd, altho outlaw for his time he tore up mortgages along the way, 1930s, RIP cuz Charles Floyd.
we need a reboot ! It was corrupt in 2008, now my fellow republicans are sheep, I am in shock, Lock and load, prep folks this is going to end bad ! and whos having bad dreams ??????????? it’s coming,
Pretty Boy Floyd, John Dillinger, Bonnie and Clyde, Baby Face Nelson and Ma Barker and her sons collectively can’t hold a candle to just Jon Corzine.
“An uneducated man robs a train, an educated man steals the railroad”.
President Theodore Roosevelt
The attacks upon labor shocks me mathematically when trillions of dollars were diverted to bankers that not only created the problem but often committed felonies in the process and they get rewarded with bonuses with de-facto taxpayer dollars and are never criminally charged. Wachovia illegally launders $300-$400 billion dollars and is fined $165 million with once again no one criminally charged.
America ran very well when Union membership was at an all time high.
Blame the control of fascists getting “Free Trade” and the demise of Glass Steagall allowing the financial sector to run virtually unregulated for the downfall. Some pipe fitter in a chemical plant making $60,000 year is not the problem but is far closer to the solution.
No one $60k a year employee is not the problem. It is 30 million of them who’s dues go directly to the democrat party to re-elect more democrats, who give kickbacks to the union bosses that is the problem…. Do you really believe there is no corruption or illegal activity going on in the SEIU, AFL-CIO, Teamsters, etc???? Dream on, Bub!
For inspiration, look at what the Greeks are doing (Zero Hedge)…
Talking of taking the heads of the creditors if they come to try to take their homes- and declaring the debt to the Troika illegal, immoral and odious– and thus, they have no obligation to keep paying them. Really beautiful and inspiring!! Finally standing up to the bastards!
The Greeks problem boils down to consuming more than they produce.
They fill in the gap by borrowing (it really doesn’t matter who they borrow from, it is debt).
Nothing is going to change for them till they start producing at least as much as they consume, no matter what they do they’ll end up in the same place in short order till they do this.
We’re lucky we don’t do that sort of thing here in the US.
Arbeit Macht Frei.. The poor Greeks are being screwed over by the Forth Reich Krauts.
The system being broken is obviously planned and you would have to be deaf and blind not to notice. TPTB know the people are becoming more aware of the overall decline and sinister plans made for their futures, that’s why all the moves against the people have intensified from every aspect of the federal government and the military and police state it controls. They are pushing their weight and military might around the world, which should have American’s alarmed. When the SHTF increases the NWO’s goons will attempt to smash dissent by murdering peaceful protest and those who attempt that constitutional right. The war of terror has come to America, I’m surprised they have any percentage of approval, the whole lot of them. Those stats are probably lies too, like 100% of every word out of any government voice.

To say the system is broken is an understatement.
The system is down right Predatory!
America’s problem is very simple, but morally difficult to fix. Kill all the “Give me Dats” and union members( same thing).
Yup!!!
Nothing wrong with good government. The existing US government? Corrupted, infiltrated, and subverted to the core by the “”secret society” Swiss pharaonic talmudic (luciferian) templar (satanic) masonic bankers running the “three city states”…london, washington dc, and the vatican, the pseudo “communist” killing machine J Edgar Hoover and JFK warned us about before they corruptly took over our government after Israel assassinated JFK while we were busy working, trusting out government. Fortunately, the mass has awakened worldwide to the horror of the secret societies and their Agenda 21 and are peacefully assuming control of humanity, we are taking back planet Earth, it’s our inheritance and right to do so. The self-aggrandizing and evil “great work” is now officially a dismal failure.
I have no faith in the press anymore, and I’m a member of the press. Talk about messed up. The only people I trust are me and thee. And sometimes I’m not so sure about thee.

Washington DC or Wall Street
Think of it as one being the septic tank and the other the leech field so therefore intrinsically linked and symbiotic.
It flows downhill anyway.
A group of counties in North Colorado would like to secede from Colorado and become the 51st state.

“America is at that awkward stage. It’s too late to work within the system, but too early to shoot the bastards.” — opening lines of 101 Things To Do ‘Til The Revolution by Claire Wolfe
For God’s sake, lets not restore this country to its former glory. It has always been a fascist hell hole. Vietnam, was when my eyes were opened, and it hasn’t gotten better since. Read Poncho Threetrees
In keeping with the Full Disclosure laws of the U.S., all candidates in the coming elections, from Presidential aspirants on down, should be required to wear their ceremonial yarmulks whenever in public. It’s time folks were awakened!
Regarding believing in our Institutions it was probably unwise to believe 100 years ago.The German government attempted to warn people in the US not to sail on merchant ships to England as they were loaded with war material; the Lusitania was mentioned in specific. Only one small midwestern news paper would print the add? Kinda interesting. Apparently our, “Free Media” was not so free a hundred years ago.
Read “Trading With The Enemy”, Standard Oil was charged and pled No Contest to trading with NAZI Germany after was was declared upon us by them.
JFK’s assassination. Well no one that has read virtually anything about it in any detail can come up with anything other than a coup.
Gulf Of Tonkin “incident” and the subsequent resolution which authorized the Vietnam war was in the center of False Flag.
OBTW, were are those WMDs in Iraq?
Its all BS and has been for a long long time.
Warning from German Embassy was published in the New York Times prior to Lusitania sailing in 1915.
I stand corrected. Thank you.
Regardless the system has been very corrupted for the last 100 years.
Actually, the system was corrupt from the very beginning. It is impossible to bring together multitudes of different peoples, with in some cases completely different philosophies of life, and expect to live together in harmony perpetually and always, without one group eventually gaining an advantage over the other and usurping all power…like what happened in the 1860s.
The “system” cannot not be repaired from within. The playing field is determined by those in D.C. against the American people.
Time for the Revolution! Americans have fought tyranny before (King George III).
if we cannot get the right people in congress then we need a convention of the states, which is allowed under the Constitution. We should give that a try before using more unpleasant measures.
I would be afraid of loosing the 2 nd Ammendment given the way people are today.
if the majority of the people don’t trust so many of these institutions, then is the government even legitimate ? And if it isn’t then what ?
“The system is broken” The F*****g problem is that there is a System think about it. Did any of us actualy vote for this SYSTEM!!!
It is best to lawfully live your life as independently from relying on the government (and relying on people who rely on the government) as much as your choice of lifestyle allows.
Getting right with God, keeping informed, loweringyour preparedness profile, a personal doctrine of distance from disorder, and having a higher commitment to prepare for when things break down… sooner than later…should be everybody’s focus.
TRND.
I enjoyed your comment.
I have reached the point of Prep Saturation. It is where I can maintain/defend what I have for a long period of time. I can do without many items others find a necessity to live. There is plenty I will not miss. Not that there won’t be things I will miss in life. Maybe preserve what is good as best you can.
There is only one institution in Amerika!

Article by Michael Snyder at ETF News
something really big about to happen? For months, people have been pointing to the second half of this year for various reasons. For some, the major concern is Jade Helm and the unprecedented movement of military vehicles and equipment that we have been witnessing all over the nation. For others, the upcoming fourth blood moon and the end of the Shemitah cycle are extremely significant events. Yet others are most concerned about political developments in Washington D.C. and at the United Nations. To me, it does seem rather remarkable that we are seeing such a confluence of economic, political and spiritual events coming together during the second half of 2015. So is all of this leading up to something? Is our world about to change in a fundamental way? Only time will tell. The following are 7 key events that are going to happen by the end of September…
Late June/Early July – It is expected that this is when the U.S. Supreme Court will reveal their gay marriage decision. Most believe that the court will rule that gay marriage is a constitutional right in all 50 states. There are some that believe that this will be a major turning point for our nation.
July 15th to September 15th – A “realistic military training exercise” known as “Jade Helm” will be conducted by the U.S. Army. More than 1,000 members of the U.S. military will take part in this exercise. The list of states slated to be involved in these drills includes Texas, Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona, Nevada, Utah, California, Mississippi and Florida.
Have you ever wondered how billionaires continue to get RICHER, while the rest of the world is struggling?
“I study billionaires for a living. To be more specific, I study how these investors generate such huge and consistent profits in the stock markets — year-in and year-out.”

July 28th – On May 28th, Reuters reported that countries in the European Union were being given a two month deadline to enact “bail-in” legislation. Any nation that does not have “bail-in” legislation in place by that time will face legal action from the European Commission. So why is the European Union in such a rush to get this done? Are the top dogs in the EU anticipating that another great financial crisis is about to erupt?
September 13th – This is Elul 29 on the Biblical calendar – the last day of the Shemitah year. Many are concerned about this date because we have seen giant stock market crashes on the last day of the previous two Shemitah cycles.
On September 17th, 2001 (which was Elul 29 on the Biblical calendar), we witnessed the greatest one day stock market crash in U.S. history up until that time. The Dow plummeted 684 points, and it was a record that held for exactly seven years until the end of the next Shemitah cycle.
On September 29th, 2008 (which was also Elul 29 on the Biblical calendar), the Dow fell by an astounding 777 points, which still today remains the greatest one day stock market crash of all time.
Now we are approaching the end of another Shemitah year. So will the stock market crash on September 13th, 2015? Well, no, because that day is a Sunday. So I guarantee that the stock market will not crash on that particular day. But as Jonathan Cahn has pointed out in his book on the Shemitah, sometimes stock market crashes happen just before the end of the Shemitah year and sometimes they happen within just a few weeks after the end of the Shemitah. So we are not just looking at one particular date.
September 15th – The 70th session of the UN General Assembly begins on this date. It is being reported that France plans to introduce a resolution which would give formal UN Security Council recognition to a Palestinian state. Up until now, the United States has always been the one blocking such a resolution, but Barack Obama is indicating that things may be much different this time around.
September 25th to September 27th – The United Nations is going to launch a brand new sustainable development agenda for the entire planet. Some have called this “Agenda 21 on steroids”. But this new agenda is not just about the environment. It also includes provisions regarding economics, agriculture, education and gender equality. On September 25th, the Pope will travel to New York to give a major speech kicking off the UN conference where this new agenda will be unveiled.
September 28th – This is the date for the last of the four blood moons that fall on Biblical festival dates during 2014 and 2015. This blood moon falls on the very first day of the Feast of Tabernacles, it will be a “supermoon”, and it will actually be visible in the city of Jerusalem. There are many that dismiss the blood moon phenomenon, but we have seen similar patterns before. For example, a similar pattern of eclipses happened just before and just after the destruction of the Jewish temple by the Romans in 70 AD.
Perhaps none of this alarms you. But when you add everything above to the fact that the elite definitely appear to be feverishly preparing for something, a very alarming picture emerges.
For example, due to fears that a “natural disaster” could interrupt their operations in New York, the New York Fed has been working hard to build up a satellite office in Chicago.
What kind of “natural disaster” could possibly be so bad that it would cause the entire New York Fed to shut down?
And NORAD has decided to move back into the base deep inside Cheyenne Mountain after all these years. The threat of an electromagnetic pulse was the reason given for this decision.
By themselves, perhaps those moves would not be that big of a deal. But let’s add all of the weird movements of military vehicles and equipment that we have been witnessing lately to this discussion. I included this list from Intellihub in a previous article, but I believe that it bears repeating…
Have you ever wondered how billionaires continue to get RICHER, while the rest of the world is struggling?

On March 13th, Intellihub founder Shepard Ambellas detailed photos and documentation of nearly 40 U.S. Army soldiers, wielding training rifles and dressed in full combat gear, participating in an urban warfare style training drill just outside the Texarkana Regional Airport perimeter.
In the middle of April, a report out of Big Springs, Texas revealed that a train full of military equipment and over a dozen helicopters had arrived in the town ahead of Jade Helm 2015.
Photographs taken in Corona, California a few days later added to the Jade Helm speculation after they showed a MRAP full of what looked to be U.S. Marines driving down the 1-15 freeway. “In broad daylight with not a care in the world”
On April 24th a shocking report on Intellihub News detailed armed troops seen confronting angry protesters in a “professional news package”of riot control training released by the military
“A massive buildup, a lot of movement and its undeniable at this point,” read the headline on April 25th after a convoy was seen in Oroville, California that stretched as far as the eye could see.
Moving into May, photographs taken in Indiana showed a massive military convoy heading down the freeway. The photos, taken by a concerned citizen, show the convoy heading west on I-70 for reasons unknown.
Two days later, video footage, this time out of Texarkana, Arkansas, highlighted a convoy of Humvees driving down the highway as well as a trainload of military vehicles that was seen shortly after.
In mid May, Intellihub reporter Alex Thomas published a detailed report that confirmed that the military was indeed training to take on the American people, this time in the form of domestic house to house raids.
The next day a new report, also by Alex Thomas, proved that Marines were actually practicing for the internment of American citizens.
On May 18th, a train full of hundreds of military Humvees was spotted, further revealing the increased military buildup across the country leading into Jade Helm 2015. The train was heading towards Cleveland for unknown reasons although a possible connection to planned upcoming protests had been mentioned.
This past week a massive military war game simulation called Raider Focus was announced. The war game will include the largest military convoy seen on the roads of Colorado since World War II.
On may 23th, Intellihub News reported on pictures sent to ANP that show a 1/4 mile long military train convoy near the Colorado Wyoming border.
Finally, a report published this week detailed a stunning propaganda move by the military involving a New Jersey school and the worship of the military on the streets of America. “As parents, teachers, and students looked on with joy, Marines from the Special-Purpose Marine Air Ground Task Force landed helicopters on the baseball diamond of a New Jersey school.”

Today Financial Journalism Suffered An Epic Failure
ht tp://www.zerohedge.com/news/2015-06-17/today-financial-journalism-suffered-epic-failure
with RARE exception
the media is complicit in the corruption that is so rife in our society
“liberal ” media like MSNBC
or “conservative”media like FOX
same coin
different sides
Honestly, calling America a democracy or a democratic republic is a false flag attack on US citizens. It is propaganda designed to make us think we have it much better than others.There is a war in the making to disarm law abiding people.
We have the right to vote in elections that have already been decided. All of our borders are wide open, not just our Southern border. They are open to anyone from a 3rd world country. The Constitution is just a door mat for global elite.
People just keep asking why? Why is the economy not recovering and why are people losing confidence?
Here is why: Corporations are really good at raising prices. They can always justify it. They always want it. They’ve become really good at keeping wages down. Automation. Fraud. Lies. You name it. If its crooked, corporations do it and get away with is. ..and in the process they keep wages low.
Funny the bit of karma that is coming back to bite them. They’ve forgotten that if they whittle the chain down too much, the chain breaks. This is what has happened. They’ve gone too cheap on the links and its all falling apart. This confidence poll is the indicator of it. So, its winding down. People that are confident don’t spend money. Why do you think there is the discussion of eliminating cash? People are hoarding it as best they can because they are uncertain how much and by who they’ll be sodomized in the future.
The system is ugly, evil and fraudulent. As it declines, I laugh. They expect us to believe but we did believe and we got it right up the ass. So, now, frankly, the confidence is failing along with the economy because we won’t bend over for the frauds.
Meant to say: People that aren’t confident don’t spend money.
The system has been broken for a long time,why folks to best of ability must succeed from system buy growing own food/alt energy/live with less/fix what is broken/cash/barter ect.I realise folks cannot do all but every bit helps you gain a little freedom and does even just a little starve the beast.Frankly,I say fuck the system as it stands today.
John Adams, 1778, on how we got to this point:
“The foundation of national morality must be laid in private families. … In vain are schools, academies, and universities instituted, if loose principles and licentious habits are impressed upon children in their earliest years.”
-John Adams (1778)
Heather’s Two Mommies and Daddy’s New Room-mate, or having third graders put condoms on cucumbers,anyone?
I was born in 1959. As a child I could happily go anywhere in our town without worrying about anything BAD happening to me. People did not lock their doors at night.Nobody gave a damn about who had guns or didn’t. We said prayers in school to no ones detriment. Violent crime was rare. We respected teachers, police and our elected leaders as a rule, and usually with good reason. 80 percent of African American households had 2 parent households. Marriage was considered sacred and divorce frowned upon. There was a definite social stigma to out of wed lock births. Virtues such as honesty, trust, family and religious faith were the norm and viewed as things to be strived for by the majority of Americans. The American Dream while a sometimes nebulous concept.was seen as attainable through faith and hard work. Strength and self reliance were deemed vital to a successful life. I could go on and on but I will stop.Some will say these things did not exist or were an illusion but I know better, to me and millions of other Americans they were a living reality.
What happened, it is 2015 and all these things are a dim memory to most. They will never return. The Founding father who said it takes generations to secure freedom but only one to lose it, was a prophet. I grieve for Millenials who don’t even know what we have lost because they never had it. As to who is to blame, it seems a pointless argument, like drowning men arguing about who built the boat that sank depositing them into the see. Our sickness and yes it is a sickness, is moral and spiritual. It seems unlikely to be revived as the very institution that might rekindle it are the most decadent and under the fiercest attack. I can only strive to strengthen my own and perhaps my families as it is my duty to do so .God help us all, we are in dire straits
I would say the rot firmly embedded itself in the 1990s (under Clinton I do recall). I grew up in the 70s and even that seems like some paradise of hard work, community and moderate crime and social cohesion. Though it was, however, far more fractured and violent than the 1950s. Reagan tried a lot of good things to bring back good values. But it was the Clinton years when corruption flourished and when income levels and everything began the big slide that accelerated during the 2000s. Obama has been an economic disaster and, rather than healing social and racial divisions, has actually fed off them for short-term political gain.
When Hillary gets in the corruption will go to the nth degree and I think that will see the cascading collapse, as people break from the dollar, more wars erupt, and the US goes full retard on fascism.
“Free Trade” eviscerated US manufacturing which attritted the backbone of the US, the middle class. The second tier of damage was caused by a significant de-regulation of the financial sector making actions once felony criminal to be just unethical with no legal ramifications. There goes your job and your pension.
All the above was done regardless who you voted for. So much for rah, rah, for my political party as both are under ownership of the same people.
Frank Thoughts
When the USSR folded and the Berlin Wall came down the entire world was ripe for the globalists to expand without fear of nationalization. The ground work was laid to export manufacturing and use force in place of economics.
“Full Retard Fascism”. I’ll incorporate that term in my vocabulary as its short and accurately descriptive.
“Americans’ confidence in most major U.S. institutions remains below the historical average for each one,” a Gallup spokesman said in a news release.
Antonio Gramsci: 1
America: 0
Well played, Sir. Well played.
Can I get a time machine and burn that f**ker’s collected writings before they’re published, please?
Drudge Report just confirmed that a white man shot and killed 9 in a black church.
My thoughts and prayers go out to the family’s. What an evil individual this one is.
Is this a flash point people? We as preppers have to wake up to more than knowing the government is worthless and will crash. We have to wake up to the fact that they are trying to divide and conquer. Some comments in this article earlier were about white and black.
I have seen comments on here about women, Jews, blacks, Hispanics, whites, Christians, cops, and soldiers.
The government wants us in groups and if we don’t wake up then I guess all that will be left is a white male atheist.
There are good and bad in all. Never completely categorize one whole group as evil.
Mike,the govt. has done a excellent job in dividing people,glad my world is much simpler in that regards at least.I do not care about your ethnicity/religion/sexuality/monied status ect.In Warchilds world you are either a douche or you are not,wonder if this is the excuse used to have “executive orders”,I.E. decrees issued from the obola crowd,wait for it.
This sucks about 9 people being killed who as far as I can tell did no wrong to this guy,would be very interested in toxicology report,wonder what meds he may have been on,seems a common factor here in situations like this,am not knocking all meds,but seems many designed to help folks cause actually more problems.
Betcha that when he is caught, if the information is ever made known, he has a history of prescribed psychiatric drug use and probably from an early elementary school age.
You know IF this is true, it’s horribly sad. Now ask this, how do the police know he 21 y/o??? The photo shows a person with a Mo (3 Stooges) haircut, just like photo of reputed Conn shooter…Then, there’s a “bomb threat” and NOBODY can get near with a camera…THEN, Al da rev Sharpton jumps in and starts commenting…I don’t know about you, I’m just a hair leery…Of course, until wolf blitzer tells us it’s all true… 😉
I’m so glad you said this. It seems that people fall for it every time. We’ve just gotten done reading an article about how there’s “no/low confidence in the press” and people are still taking this “news STORY” as gospel.
Mike
I too was shocked this morning when I read this. What would drive a person to do something like this.
My prayers also go out to these folks.
IS THIS KID ANOTHER PERSON THAT WAS PROGRAMED BY THE PTB TO DO THIS? Or is he just sick? Or did he have something done to him or his family and he is taking revenge? Is this kid a Muslim in Jihad mode? It was a Christian Church.
Right now there is so many things we don’t know, and more than likely never know! Or could this be a set up false flag, remember Jade Helm. Good time to start a race war.
Only time will tell and then we will more than likely not get the truth!
Sgt.
“IS THIS KID ANOTHER PERSON THAT WAS PROGRAMED BY THE PTB TO DO THIS?”
It’s probably equally likely to be that, or another staged incident. Sad to see.
When the system becomes corrupt, the lessening of confidence in it is to be expected.
The story of the parents recently arrested and STRIP SEARCHED because their 11 year old was playing basket ball alone in his own backyard before they got home says it all about our corrupt system. Corrupt as hell.
Polls and voting are for suckers. Numbers can and are being manipulated to suit many agendas and who’s the wiser?
The machine is breaking down because it is inevitable for it to happen otherwise things would remain the same.
Why don’t you spew that your vote doesn’t count on the gay, collage, and black sites. Let them believe that so they don’t vote. Why are the politicians constantly trying to get the white men and prepers to stop voting. We need to vote , go to the city meetings, show up at all events to show are presents. There’s a lot of people with big mouths when were not around.
Unlike Stalin’s era when the vote counters decided everything, voters today decide nothing, the Courts decide everything.
Regarding the very important issues of economics and the use of the military both horses are bought in the two horse race. Vote for GH bush and you get NAFTA. Vote for Clinton and you get NAFTA. Might as well sit home.
Over on Survival blog this morning I watched a vid that I thought was pretty interesting on a cashless society as well as what me might see coming down the road. Its about 30 minutes long. Later.

“GIVE US YOUR CHILDREN”
You’ve Been Warned: Calls For Mandatory “National Service” For Americans Aged 18-28 Have Begun

“go F_CK yourselves”
This is something I totally support. Have you met young people these days? Getting them in basic training would do them a world of good. A few months in a fire base on the front lines would also help them get centered and see life in the round. I loved my time in the military: best people I have ever encountered in the world of work and saw the best and worst of humanity: thus it was a great life lesson.
And now how does that ditty go? “Thirty days on bread and water, I got a date with the Colonel’s daughter… sound off!! 1,2,3,4…”
Frank those young folks to speak of today would be the ones dragging you out of your house in the middle of the night to put one in your brain pan with their received brain washing. Think about it. My boy just turned 27. They gonna have to go through me to get to him. Knowing him like I do, he’ll go down with me.
I disagree about this being a good thing. Our pathetic gov can’t or won’t put a stop to the rape going on in the military. What a hellish thing for these young people to endure.
I see nothing wrong with mandatory universal military training and service.
It is the basis of the citizen soldier and maintains military loyalty to the people and country as a whole.
The alternative is a standing professional army, and professional armies are loyal to their leader alone (as the Romans discovered when Julius Caesar’s army loyally followed him across the Rubicon instead of following the law that forbid them from crossing it, effectively putting an end to Rome as a Republic).
As I always do I default to the US Constitution.
I can’t see where mandatory forced public service is authorized.
This is a golden opportunity to:
1. Collect DNA and personal data.
2. Propagandize the “collective”.
Generally speaking if, “they” want it its probably not a good idea.
Article I, Section 8, Clause 12
“To raise and support armies, but no appropriation of money to that use shall be for a longer term than two years;”
I was thinking in regard to Obamas call for a civilian force he proposed.
I stand corrected regarding the legality of raising an Army.
Frankly, i can’t believe they are that low! Being older than most of you, I have seen our country go to hell. We are at the door of destruction and we are beating it down with Obama. I have no reason not to believe that Obama will start some kind of National disaster to stay in office. So, to the people —prepare, for the day is approaching rapidly. It is not a question of– if– anymore!! Let’s take the latest event of the black church killing. The media– MEDIA–keeps a lid on daily killings of white people. NEVER is the word BLACK used , if they even get a article. But now we have a white on black incident, and it is National news. Now the media rushes white the news everywhere. You need to read the anti white hating comments out there. They blaming ALL WHITE people. Slavery, white people with guns, jobs, school grades– – the only reason they haven’t used yet is climate change. But I am sure they will get around to that. Since I am writing this, and I am sure we will have some anti white hating liberals out there— quit using slavery as a excuse for everything in your life. And if you would study and read, Some of the biggest slave owners were BLACK!! did you understand that– BLACK. so find another horse to beat.
The House is preparing to vote again today on Obamatrade.
Jeff Sessions on Obamatrade’s ‘New Pacific Union’ Like the EU: Something America Has ‘Never Seen’ Before
“Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-AL has issued yet another clarion call to House Republicans urging them to abandon GOP leadership’s desperate ploys to bring Obamatrade back to life and instead vote against Trade Promotion Authority (TPA) and stop President Obama from getting even more power in his final years in office.
“The House is preparing to vote again tomorrow (6/18) on providing fast-track executive authority to the President. If adopted, it will be sent immediately to the Senate for final consideration,” Sessions said, before correcting misconceptions peddled far and wide by House Ways and Means Committee chairman Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI).
“It is essential that there be no misunderstanding: fast-track preapproves the formation of not only the unprecedentedly large Trans-Pacific Partnership, but an unlimited number of such agreements over the next six years,” Sessions said.
“Those pacts include three of the most ambitious ever contemplated. After TPP comes the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) between the United States and the European Union, followed by the Trade in Services Agreement (TiSA), seeking as one its goals labor mobility among more than 50 nations.
Together, these three international compacts encompass three-fourths of the world’s GDP. Including the nations whose membership is being courted for after enactment, the countries involved would encompass nearly 90 percent of global GDP.
Yet, through fast-track, Congress will have authorized the President to ink these deals before a page of them has been made public. Then, the Executive sends Congress ‘implementing’ legislation to change U.S. law—legislation which cannot be amended, cannot be filibustered, and will not be subjected to the Constitutional requirement for a two-thirds treaty vote.”
“Sessions then laid out how several members of Congress didn’t even know about what they were voting on when leadership forced them to vote—and how it’s not too late for Republicans to see the light and oppose the creation of a new global governance.”

The meaning of this of pretty easy to see and I think we are seeing exactly the fruits of this developing now.
Once the government loses it’s ability to govern by consent, it must then govern by force. Such is the nature of the beast that is government.
Government, any government can only exist by the consent of the governed. Once that consent is removed, the government will eventually cease to exist.
That being said, before it ceases to exist, it will fight tooth and nail to continue it’s existence since that is it’s only real reason for existing, to grow and maintain itself.
The legislation that is being passed, the military activities, the propaganda, and much more that is happening right now is all directed at the results of this poll.
They know they are losing control and that their time is growing short, so their only response can and must be to increase their efforts to control us even more.
It is picture perfect history repeating itself. In short, it’s human nature.
We are entering a most dangerous time. We’re dealing with a wounded beast that will do ANYTHING to survive.
They won’t take no for an answer on enacting these trade deals and will keep pushing until it passes. A done deal! These elected so called representatives only represent the bribe payers. They don’t write these bills or even read them before falling in line and voting for their passage. All they care about is being reelected to their high paying, gravy train, do nothing, power trip positions. Has voting changed anything? Hell no! So when you step up to cast your vote, remember you are the sucker. Talk about complete brainwashing, this act takes the grand prize.
9 blacks killed by white gunman in SC.
Here we go folks. It is going to be a very interesting summer.
You still have time to prep.
Combine a race war with a financial collapse. Obama’s dream come true.
There will be an immediate retaliation by the black community. An escalation by whites and blacks is sure to follow.
Prepare to defend yourself.

What with the constant flood of senseless black-on-white violence, like that “knockout game”, in all our cities and suburbs, it was only a matter of time before somebody snapped. Wonder if he was set off by something happening to a friend or a relative.
So, expect the next round of Outhouse Press Conferences starring (!) Lynch, Obama, Holder, Morris Dees of the Soviet Poverty Law Center, NAACP, Sharpton, Jackson, Clinton, Rachel Dolezal, Josh “Ernst Rohm” and the ENTIRE congressional BLACK mob.
Topics (so that you can save some time): 2nd Amendment causes violence, NRA is a terrorist organization,Racism, White Privilege, Rich White Crackers cause climate change and poverty, Conservativism is hate speech, and the need for a federal police force (just as strong and just as well funded as our military.)
And expect a flurry of gun confiscation legislation at the state and local levels. And expect the BATFE to step up the raids and overall harassment of gun owners, gun shops and 2nd Amendment groups.
One thing you can also expect, absolutely no one will blame those in Government and Media that have been pushing racial division, blame and conflict for the last six years.
Yet that -and I’m sure along with psychiatric drugs to bolster it- is what caused this.
A gun may have been used to do this, but it did not cause it and no one will be willing to talk about what DID cause it.
But they know.
No problem here BigB. Been anticipating it.
Sure it’s broken has been for a very long time. Can not be fixed, no way; America has run it’s coarse and is fading away. Those in power are blinded and can not see this, they know nothing else but the power they live by. When that power is gone they will die. Are you prepared to die, if not get prepare, for it is coming.
All of these institutions are made up of the American people … nobody else. If you don’t trust them to do the right thing it’s because you don’t trust yourselves to do the right thing. Look in the mirror. There’s your problem.

Consider how much more evil she’s become since those statements….
What difference does it make??? 😉
I still believe in the institution! And all of the PTB should be in it.
Remember that the nuts are running the institution now.
As far as the American ideals of what is the institution of America should be. I still believe! The problem is I DON’T TRUST THE TURDS THAT ARE RUNNING IT!

Websites like this are great, but I have a feeling “we the people” are just going to let this happen. And when it happens, then what? A single coal can only burn so long, even 10 coals together can only burn so long. I’m not saying we should give up, but I think there would be a lot more hope if “we the people” were more proactive. What should “we” do? I’m sick of waiting. We need a real leader for “the people”!
“What should we do?”
Keep the brushfires of liberty burning. When it is time to act, you will know it.
Our Phantom Economy

“In effect, the mainstream media is a vast Psychological Operation (PSYOPS) aimed at persuading the American public that the status quo Imperial system of predatory, debt-based crony-capitalism that benefits the few at the expense of the many is not just beneficial to all its debt-serfs and welfare recipients, but it is the only possible system–there is no alternative(TINA).”
“One of the greatest and most important PSYOPS of the Imperial State (U.S. Government) and its faithful lapdog the mainstream media is the unemployment rate. As I will show tomorrow, the real unemployment rate is between 20% and 40%, depending on whether you think someone earning $1,500 a year selling stuff on eBay and Etsy should be counted as “employed.”
How to identify a terrorist?
They claim they are from the govenrment and typically parade around in costumes addourned with either 3 of 4 letter logos.
We all know how TPTB (Elites), want to depopulate the world by say by 6 billion as it has been said. Hey if that is so they a pitting one against one another and they don’t care who kills who as long as the killing keep on going. With what time we have left we need to band together and go after the ELITES; Who are they, in my eye they are the money men, the billionaires (money for brains) of the world no matter what nationality they maybe. Start taking them out for the one way ride now, this is the only way things are going to change, unless we do that then they pit one against another and win. If you want to kill the snake cut off its HEAD. They can- not hide that deep if we all look for them, but now is the time not tomorrow!
Yup, but you couldn’t find that black bastard no where around when they were lightin’ them up all last month in Baltimore and Nigcago.
Anybody ever hear about the mass shooting in Melrose Park Il.? Feb.5, 2001. Navistar factory. Probably not. Black shooter. Shoots 7 white people and 1 Asian. Intentionally walked around the black employees and didn’t shoot any of them. Not a hate crime? Nope. No black victims. Just your everyday workplace violence. No hate if victims aren’t black. Your government. Your news media. Now you know who the enemy is.
People have very short memories Prophet. I know who I have defined as my enemies. The day is coming my friend, the day is coming.

They didn’t like government since Washington’s time. Government attracts the most basest of people. God said he would put in the most BASEST of people.
When you look at your politicians you adore so much you are looking at the SCUM of humanity. Yet God says to do what they want till they cross HIS line.
Strange.
This country is getting really weird. I submitted a comment on a website (I think it was Brightbart) expressing my sadness over the shootings in South Carolina. I ended it with I will prey for the families. I misspelled pray. I was immediately attacked. I meant no offense. The trouble is that no other submission to the site even tried to express condolences to the victims. They all went off to gun control and political issues.
There seems to be a people out there that are so shallow that they can only get off on calling you out for a misspelling but cannot develop an opinion and express it.
Many of them are government trolls, who sit on their fat asses and get paid to spread such hatred. Don’t sweat it bro. State your opinion succinctly, argue back with logical and reasoned arguments, and don’t let them bury you. Your voice will be heard. There are many people reading such comments, and making judgments, without speaking up.
“The loss of confidence in the system ultimately relates to the loss of confidence in the freedom of the individual.” Confidence in any “system” of “institutions” IS the lack of confidence in the freedom of the individual! Loss of confidence in “institutions” is the surge of confidence IN the individual! By bewailing “when, o when, will confidence be regained in ‘institutions'” shows the Republicanesque, conservative, right-wing intention that THEIR collectivist institutions be made strong (dominant). That smacks of Nazism and any other form of Fascism (Corporatism, according to Fascist guru Benito Mussolini). Nope, that’s not to cheer in any way for the Democrats and other liberals and their Communist agendas either. None of them are any good for individual liberty. Only those who would dismantle all those “institutions” is any good for everyone. It’s up to EVERYONE to dismantle, for him or herself–by not depending on or complying with institutions.
“Loss of confidence in “institutions” is the surge of confidence IN the individual!”
Not exactly–it’s simply a loss in confidence in everything, at first…soon followed by a surge of confidence in certain *people*. Leaders. Not everyone has the capacity to think for themselves, which is why they outsource their thinking to others. Drones such as the typical American are especially likely to do so.
This nation was created by rich people for rich people. The founding fathers knew what they were doing when they created a first national bank. They secured the future of wealthy people for years to come. TJ tried to evoke change. He was just one, but he still left his children in slavery. He knew it was wrong but he was sipping on the vino living a good life and thats all that mattered.
The founders of this country had no problem collecting taxes. They didn’t want to pay them so they wrote some inspiring words down on a piece of paper and a few rabel rousers started the revolution.Do note, If it wasn’t for the French we would of never won. Too many people out there don’t REALLY know our history. The war of 1812 was the beginning of US trying to flex our weight on the world. It was a pointless war and we got our ass handed to us, rightfully so.
Francis Scott Key was a slave owner and took a hard stance against abolitionism and I would ask anyone here to tell me if there were any other great works that he wrote.
The Star Spangled Banner sounds like a drunken bar tune.
Andrew Jackson was a racist that defied congresses orders and using genocide destroyed the Native American tribes of the midwest and south. He is now on a twenty.
All Abraham Lincoln cared about was the Union. It had nothing to do with peoples lives. He used scorch and burn tactics in the south.The same methods used by feudal kings during the medieval times. He BLATANTLY violated the constitution when it came down to states rights.
The last chance we had to be great came with JFK and look what happened to him. If he lived and carried out his plan for a TRUE DEMOCRACY this country would be in the history books with the likes of Rome, Greece, Egypt and MLK would of been the first black president of this country.
Long, but very eye-opening documentary. …connected the dots on a lot issues for me!!!
Watch “SYNAGOGUE OF SATAN Full documentary 1878-2006 by A.C.Hitchcock” on YouTube
https://youtu.be/XuzkLbHb1Q8
I tried watching the video, but it’s hard to understand synthetic speech when it mispronounces names and tries to pronounce letters, such as NAACP, as words.
You can download a Powerpoint presentation of a Rothschild timeline by Mr. Hitchcock at: ht tp://www.iamthewitness.com/DarylBradfordSmith_Rothschild.htm
I am just downloading it now. It might be easier to understand than the artificial voice in the video.
