The road to prosperity from the edges of the cliff.

     With all the talk of the fiscal cliff as of late I wanted to share my thoughts on it briefly. The cliff has been there from the moment we enacted the ability to tax individual citizens. It has been there since America decided to reign supreme among the many sovereign nations, countries and states all around the world, it has been there since the congress gave away their duty to set weights and measures, the standard of gold conversion, and the officiating of new monies printed or coined. The cliff was there in 1913 when the federal reserve began counterfeiting our currency, controlling interest rates and having a monopoly on the monetary markets. The cliff has always been there, we have been on the road to this cliff for generations now, the problem lies not with the existence of the cliff or the fact that we are on our way there but on the speed and direction of travel to the cliff. We have in many ways accepted the fate in which we are faced with, we have not slowed progress but have increased speed, we have not changed our course there, we have simply let go of the wheel. 

     I have 2 possible scenarios that could and somewhat should play out. 1 unbuckle the seat belt and jump, yeah it's going to hurt , we may bleed or even break a few bones but isn't  that better than landing on top of Greece and Spain at the bottom of this cliff and being a dead economy. 2. Is possibly the most extreme out there. I say let it be, let us fly off the cliff and see what happens, if we somehow survive the plunge and the fiery crash at the end, we may for just a brief moment on the way down have a semi conscience epiphany and learn something great, something that we can use if we manage to survive. 

     We can change the course of history right now. We can jump out of the car or we can ride it to the bottom and hope to learn. Either way we go we all go together, we can't leave people in the car if we decide to jump and we can't have people jumping if we decide to ride it out. We all made this mess we all get to enjoy the consequence of it. It is the duty of every individual to know why we are here and what to watch out for in the future, it is your duty to act to stop fiscal stupidity and arrogance, it is your duty to hold responsible the actions of those that you have placed into power to represent you and your way if life. Iceland is a great example of what I mean. They took care of the problem not the effects of those problems. They are rebounding faster than any other country on earth. We can follow their example and start anew, we can take control of this situation right now and begin to see prosperity once again, we can reinstate America as one of the strongest AND most free nations on earth. Join with your fellow Americans and fight for a better way of life, live with us and by our sides as one people of a great nation and I promise you, you will gain the experience, the skills, the responsibility and the wisdom to continue prosperity into future generations of your family lines.

Ask yourself this question, If the Patriot Act was meant to stop this kind of thing from happening by spying on every American citizens and wiretapping their every call, rummaging through your emails both private and at work, if the bill that was supposed to stop things of this nature from happening, WHAT HAPPENED, WHY DID IT FAIL. It is because it was never about your safety, it has always been about the intrusiveness of it, it has been about their ability to monitor every person and have complete access to your most personal of files, pictures, videos, and all data contained on any hard drive anywhere. you gave up freedom for a false sense of safety and that my friends is a very dangerous slope to be on. Who knows when the next event like this will happen except those that plan them, whether that be a group of government officials and bureaucrats or the kid hoped up on drugs pushed by the big pharm companies.

Is the United Nations Arms Trade Treaty really something to fear in America

As I sat and watched the news coming in from New York in late November 2012 I was amazed that our nation’s leaders were so open and accepting of the United Nations Arms Trade Treaty. I thought “what are they trying to do to our 2^nd amendment and why is no one stopping them”?  It didn’t take long for the National Rifle Association and other prominent Firearm enthusiast’s publications and groups to demonize the Treaty without ever opening a single document from the U.N. But what are they so afraid of happening and is it all bunk?

When you read the actual treaty being discussed the majority of it is to combat the illicit trade and transfer of weapons to various countries. The treaty is to insure that countries on the African continent cannot easily acquire weapons to commit human trafficking, kidnapping, rape, pillaging and forced child labor violations that have been prevalent across Africa. It is to combat the black market sales of tanks, aircraft, missiles, anti-aircraft munitions and small arms to countries that have in the past shown to be in favor of brutality and immorality. It is in essence to keep the peace by keeping the pieces.

So what does it mean to America? Well if we are to go by the United Nations written treaty, this on the surface wouldn’t affect us at all. But if you pull back the curtain and reveal the true nature of the beast, it is a clear victory of legislation for the United States of America. You see America is one of the most deceitful countries when it comes to Arms Trade violations, we have learned over the years how not to get caught doing what we do best. We have the capabilities to run weapons and ammunition to bordering countries as we have seen in the Fast and Furious scandal. But that isn’t the first time we have furthered the advancement of militants and their regimes. Al-Qaeda was created by the United States Central Intelligence Agency to help the Afghan people repel the advancement of Soviet Forces coming from Russia. We supplied the arms, ammunition and training of these currently named “terrorist” groups.

What happens if America is cut off from arms trade from other countries? This is my interpretation of what could happen and it really isn’t bad. If America were to be cut off from foreign arms it would generate jobs and manufacturing in the states, suddenly we could compete internally with American made weapons easily accessible to all citizens. We could in theory gain and substantial job growth and employment numbers would rise; better economic reasons to say yes to the Arms Trade Treaty.

I am in no way in support for the United Nations in any aspect of world control or international peace-keeping. I see the United Nations as a waste of valuable America resources, both monetarily and militarily. My opposition of their policy and procedures does not cloud the fact that until our policy makers are convinced of the mal-investment in the United Nations we are under their control. For better or worse we have to be informed on the forced legislation being passed in the name of security.

There is always a mountain before the fiscal cliff.

     With so many self-proclaimed fiscal conservatives in our congress how did we accumulate a 16 trillion dollar debt and an insurmountable deficit? Where were these conservatives when the debt was being created and expanded and the deficit grew exponentially larger? Who holds the answers to get back on track to lowering and paying off the debt and lowering the deficit back to zero?

     During the last 20+ years our debt has climbed at an alarming rate and the deficit has turned into a real monster; but who is responsible for it democrats or republicans? Who holds the blame when they are both doing the same deeds and voting the same way, can you really put sole blame on either party or should we hold each accountable for their part? What happens when this so called cliff is reached is no real concern, it is the why we were allowed to climb the mountain to reach this cliff. The real issue that should be addressed is what we have learned from all of this. Have we learned to make cuts where we can, no not really, because one party wants spending  cuts and the other party wants higher taxation to compensate for outrageous spending and gifting of trillions of dollars to the worldwide nations.  So what is the answer? What we haven’t tried is to make the dollar worth more so that our debt pays off more at a time, cut the spending to only those things that are necessary for the nation to work right. What we haven’t tried to cut off all foreign aid to every nation until we get ourselves in better financial shape, what we should be doing is cutting off the paychecks of our politicians until they can get these things done and we get back on track.

      Who can steer us back in the right direction? I don’t think it can be done by one man or by one party. I believe it would take the combined effort of every one of our government workers, it would take a sound monetary policy being taught in our schools, and it would take the people of this nation to realize that the government’s debt is really our debt. We pay our taxes so that government can run (well that’s what they tell us) and what do they do with it, hit the casino and strip clubs, they blow our money on the temporary goods and bad investments, such as war and foreign aid. The only way to get back on track is to stop with this flawed belief that we can print our way out or that higher taxation of the people will do the trick either.

     So have we learned an important lesson in all of this? I surely hope so, I hope we as a people, as a citizenry, have learned to demand responsibility from our elected officials. I hope we have learned to monitor of national debt and even our state debt just as we would with our personal debt. But who am I kidding, our country leads in personal debt by citizens and we also lead in foreclosures and bankruptcy, so it all kind of makes sense if you think about it. Is it too late? Are we already over the cliff? Have we gone too far to turn back? Honestly I don’t know. What I do know is that either way we go we had better taken some notes because I see this happening again in the very near future. Sink or swim we are all going together. LIVE FREE

The Balance of Power

     The President of the United States of America is a pretty important role, but why does it seem to many that he is the end all of the issues facing us today.  The Senate and the House or Representatives encompass a vastly larger role on decision making and policy making. So why is it that we put all the praise or in the case of the last 25 years all of the blame on the President?
     The House of Representatives is made up of Representatives of each state and the District of Columbia.There are currently 435 plus 6 non-voting member in the United States House of Representatives. That's a lot of opinions and requirements to shuffle through to ensure each state benefits from the laws, mandates and regulations set forth in each session. The power struggle between the parties keeps much of what could potentially be good legislature from passing, but on the same coin it can also be used to block very bad legislature from passing through too. The current numbers for each party are as follows: 255 Democratic Party members and 178 Republican Party members (two vacancies). So with the amount of voices and concerns deliberated in each session how does one negate the fact that these people are to be held responsible also for bad decisions and bad legislature being passed.
     But the House of Reps isn't the only stop on the Blame train, the Senate has the equal power to ratify bills and to draft new laws to be sent to the House and President for approval and veto for any reason. The Senate is made up of two Senators from each state regardless of population of that state. Again with these people supposedly working for the best interest of those they represent the idea that these law makers and politicians should be held accountable for their actions comes in view. Why is it that we are so quick to blame one man for the failure that could have been stopped or might have been started by others?
     The President is only one man but that does not exclude him from the ability to direct new laws and pass unconstitutional Executive Orders. the same process needs to be followed in all Branches of Government, when the President has the ability and authority to execute executive orders at will it leaves out the veto powers of the legislative and judicial branches of Government. In these cases full blame should be put upon the President. In cases where the proper steps have been followed and right paperwork filed and approved it is then up to the people of the country to call on their respective leaders to abolish, reconstruct, amend or nullify those laws which are dangers to the state and a country as a whole, they have a duty to act in order to retain the given power of our constitution and the maintain the power over government. For far too long now the people have forgotten that government is the servant to the citizens will not the other way around. It is time to hold those responsible accountable and those that wish to be a embarrassment to our constitutional republic shall be removed from power.

A Brief Explaination: Syria, the Rebels, and Chemical Warfare

A Brief Explaination: Syria, the Rebels, and Chemical Warfare

Posted by Rocketmouth on Tuesday, 04 December 2012

While America is wrapped up in Kate Middleton's pregnancy and Rob Kardashian's snarky comments about his ex, US has deployed Patriot Missiles to the Syrian-Turkish boarders.
But why? RT.com Reported:
         "The US government is contemplating significant intervention in the Syria conflict and has discussed employing Patriot Air and Missile Defense Systems in Turkey and directly providing arms to opposition fighters.
"In an attempt to defeat Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, government officials told the New York Times that the US might bring its military resources to the region for either intimidation purposes or direct use in Syria.
"NATO will likely decide next week whether or not to deploy surface-to-air Patriot missiles in Turkey, which would serve to protect the country from potential Syrian missiles that could contain chemical weapons, as well as intimidate Syrian Air Force pilots from bombing the northern Syria border towns."
Today these events were set in motion after numerous threats of Chemical warfare. The presidant, Bashar Assad, has been Mr. Popular with his people since 2011, when the beginning of the Free Syrian Army( or better known as the Syrian Rebels) was founded.
