“ If you are reading this, then you are The Movement”

02.072010

Words from the Several States, The Movement, part 030

So FRN’s The Movement has covered global government, Economics 101 and building an Ark of safety. There is only one subject left, that is near and dear to my heart, Love songs. Far to few journalists really take the proper amount of time and discover the world of Love songs. Well. at least inside my mind, so lets take a break and have some fun. All of you should feel free to e-mail back with your top 10 favorite love songs. We might offer a prize for the best list, as judged by Scott and myself.

Did you hear that Editor Scott? you now have to judge a list of love songs.

Yes, it has been many columns in a row, that I have tripped the light fantastic, of heavy duty content and discussion. Now it is time to boldly write about happy, gooey, sappy and beautiful love songs.

I’m serious, please stop laughing and get up off the floor; your webcam may be on. I can hear the detractors already saying, No Chris, please go back to serious political, constitutional and economic discussion.

I might rabbit, I might, but first lets talk love songs.

First a few contemporary love songs that I think are really cool, and then my personal top ten list. I really dig love longs, so it is very hard to whittle it down to 10.

1. I need you, Tim McGraw and Faith Hill: This is such a fabulous song, by country music’s happiest couple. I can’t imagine this song being done by any other two singers.

2. Color my world, Chicago: You really shouldn’t have a wedding without it. Beautiful piano and the gentle honest voice of lead singer Terry Kath. That song alone proved Chicago was here to stay.

3. Endless Love, Lionel Ritchie and Diana Ross: Man, if you were a teenager during the first part of the ‘80s, that was the love song. In my mind, to this day, the best solo work both of them did.

4. Still, The Commodores: The really wish Lionel Ritchie would’ve never left the band. These guys were the very best of R&B and pop, during the ‘70s. You folks should hear me sing this at Karaoke. Yeah yeah, come on now, stop the laughing and did you check you webcam? I’ll have you know the last time I did this at Speedboat in Wyandotte, seven people clapped. So there.

5. Cherish, Kool and The Gang. Detroit is a great jazz town, and everyone love Kool and The Gang. Another great love song, if you were an 80’s teenager. The extended saxophone version was the best.

6. Love in the first degree, Alabama: The song that put Alabama on the charts. Back when we had a Top 40 chart that is. Country music’s first huge crossover song.

7. Don’t turn me away, Air Supply: In Detroit you could hear this song on WNIC only. One of those B sides that gets a huge fan following, but never any serious air time. Great song.

Getting back to Kool and the Gang for a moment. Pillow Talk, a radio show that ran for 25 years in Detroit, and their song “Summer Madness”, was always the song to close out the show. A great jazz piece. It may just be the most recognized jazz piece in all of love song domain. That song grooved.

Chris’s top ten love songs (pretty much in order)

1. Play Me, Neil Diamond: I go back and forth, between this one and my number two. But for the last five years or so, this is currently my favorite. Neil Diamond writes lyrics like no one else, and the guitar in this song, just carries you to that special place in the heart. Don’t you wish they made music like this nowadays?

2. For Emily, Whenever I may find her, Simon and Garfunkel: It is the images of love, painted so thoughtfully by the words of Paul Simon, and the delicate vocals of Art Garfunkel. It is a moment of the heart, of passing through soft pastels and all the emotions that really matter. The Live version they did in 1980, in Central Park, is what you really need to hear. “I kissed your honey hair, with my grateful tears . . “ Now that is a lyric. This song makes me cry.

3. Chances, Air Supply: Hey, quick tip to all you single guys, women love Air Supply. A big hit, but very little air play these days. that’s to bad, an entire new generation needs to be introduced to the wonderful music of Air Supply. One of the all time greatest bands from Australia in my humble opinion. Now lets get really gooey about this song. My buddies, Rob and Brian, we write screenplays on the weekend. Someday Hollywood may even pay attention to us. 16 years ago I started a love story called “Chances”, and it will be a beautifully produced movie someday. Even if I have to bribe every director in Hollywood. Long live the music of Air Supply!

4. The Wedding Song (There is Love), Paul Stooky: Transcendent. What more can you say. A small little song Paul wrote for his own wedding, and it is now the very fabric of any wedding you go to. Rightfully so. Paul Stooky of Peter, Paul and Mary will go down as one of America’s great folk artists. There is Love will go down, quite possibly, as the perfect Love Song for all time.

5. The Music of the Night, Colm Wilkinson: The Phantom of the Opera remains my all time favorite stage production. If you never had the opportunity to see it at the Pantages in Toronto, then you really missed something unique. I think Colm Wilkinson was born to sing this one song. Treat yourself to an early birthday present, go online and buy his version. Captivating.

6. No Ordinary Love, Sade: Sensual. If I had to choose one word for this 80’s hit. I’m saying here right now, next time you take your girl out dancing, have the DJ play this. If need be, bring your own CD, most DJs are to young to remember dancing with their girl, to this soul song. In fact, It may become your duty, to introduce another generation to real slow dancing. I used to dim the lights at my house parties, take match to some candles, and grab a lady friend, and get down to some soul dancing. Candles are optional when grooving to this song, but highly recommended. Do not doubt the wisdom of FRN.

7. Feels so Right, Alabama: My signature Karaoke song. To answer your next question, yes, people to applaud. Of all country songs from the 80s, this love song rises way above the rest.

8. Something, The Beatles: I love The Beatles, ever since I was a kid. I could listen to their love songs, all their music, for days on end. George Harrison wrote this song in 1969 for the ABBY ROAD album. He just picked up the guitar and it came out.

9. Mandy, Barry Manilow: The first girl I fell in love with, was named Mandy. Actually right when this song was burning up the charts. Then sixth grade rolled around, and she had an new group of friends, and I didn’t get a chance to see her much. Plus we were in middle school now, and maybe I wasn’t cool enough for her. But it has been 32 years now and I’m pretty much over the heart ache. Thank you for your concern. Seriously, Barry Manilow sure could do the love ballads. Beautiful song, on so many levels.

10. Waiting for a girl like you, Foreigner: Released August 1981. There is a story that some beautiful young lady came into the studio and sat down, just as they were laying down Lou Grahm’s vocals. One take and it was more than perfect. Mike Stone commented that he never heard Lou sing like that before. The girl walked out and no one ever saw her again. If that story is Urban Legend, than it is very good Urban Legend. I think that love song has the most unique intro of any love song. It gets better with each passing year, and I can never do anything but turn up the volume and sing along.

11. Song from half Mountain, Dan Fogelberg: Not one of his bigger hits, but an incredible song. The lyrics are so visual. There is a soft haunting quality to it. Whomever he is singing for, he must have loved her very much.

12. Candilejas, Julio Iglesias: In Spanish of course. It reminds you why Julio Iglesias is one of the greatest performers in the world. Why his concerts sell out on four continents. There is a longing, a yearning to Mexican and Hispanic music. It has drawn me in for decades. Another CD you need to stick in your pocket, when you take your girl out dancing.

You notice I could only get down to 12.

And just when was the last time you took your girl out dancing? Don’t look at me like that. Pick a night, take my list with you and give that dance floor a serious workout. She is sitting there, just waiting for you to take her hand and walk to the dance floor.

That was fun, we need to do more columns on music. Next time around, top 10 Disco songs. “Dancing Queen, feel the beat from the tambourine . . .”

If you are reading this, then you are the Movement; but you still need to take her dancing.

“ If you are reading this, then you are The Movement”

01.24.2010

Words from the Several States: The Movement, part 029

How to build an Ark of safety in hopes for a bright future:

Note to FRN readers: I don’t track the number of hits on the website. Never have and never will. I don’t know how many weekly readers there are of The Movement column, though my conservative estimates are around 22,000. None of that stuff has ever been important to me. My goal has always been a uniquely informative newsletter, that will facilitate citizens having a proper resource for activism and political participation. The Movement writing that follows may lose FRN Newsletter a huge number of readers. I do not put out information that makes people comfortable, I put out information and analysis that makes people act. Thank you for your continued readership and patriotism. There is nothing stronger, than the burning patriotism of a free society.

What follows I ask you to consider carefully and completely, before sitting down with your family and friends. I ask in all kindness that you do that. My hope is you will feel compelled, after reading this, to sit down and discuss a plan for an Ark of safety.

Several weeks ago (early December) I told a close friend I was going to write this. He commented that some people will think I am crazy. That’s fine, as long as there is further discussion amongst you and your loved ones after words.

America will go through an even darker period, where I fully believe society will break down. It could be on December 21, 2012, it could be 10 years from now or it could happen tomorrow. The breakdown may last several weeks, months maybe a year, all depending on what kind of political and social leadership rises up to take control. In that context, as always, it is a matter of the social hydraulics at work. It could happen sooner rather than later for the following reasons:

1. There will be a true economic implosion in America and around the world. Global economic output is $62 Trillion annual, and the banks, stock markets and thrifts have leveraged debt at $900 Trillion. It could start on December 21, 2012 for all we know. It could be 10 years off. With the banking system being propped up by debt, it could implode tomorrow. The very infrastructure of our global economic system of output, simply cannot handle this level of debt leverage. As I stated in my global government series, it is a matter of things in motion tending to stay in motion. I feel I am one of only a handful of economists willing to speak openly and honestly on the amount of leveraged debt.

2. We will go to a global currency and see our constitution practically destroyed. Great Britain is about to take the next step towards a global currency, after 300 years, their central bank is eliminating paper checks. Imagine, no hard copy records of your checks, only electronic. Just another case of information not being under your control, but that of a central banking system,. Dr. G. Edward Griffin wrote very concisely about this in his book “The creature from Jekyll island.” A book I recommend even more highly than my own. Dr. Griffin is a realist who understands the power of debt-based money. Every one of Dr. Griffin’s predictions are coming true. He conceptualized a future, where the IMF is given far deeper and far more reaching powers. All that has come to pass in 2008 - 2009.

3. I firmly believe Al-Qaida and/or other global terrorist groups are probing our infrastructure for weaknesses. I believe our infrastructure will be hit. I do not believe there is the proper political leadership in DC, to give our military, NSA and CIA the green light to really handle terrorism. Lack of leadership and political guts will leave America vulnerable. It is simple mathematics, sooner rather than later, we will be hit again. Hit much harder, far more deadly.

Again, it is a matter of hydraulics. That is why everyone needs to build an Ark of safety.

I Have not lost my mind, I simply want to make sure as many people have an idea on how to start preparing for the storm. We must weather the storm if we are to see sunlight. You must be willing to work $10 to $15/week into your household budget. Not easy to do, for most working/middle class households. It wasn’t easy for me to figure out on my rather limited budget, but I have.

Step one: Sit down with loved ones and decide how many people within your family and friends can be properly protected at any one location, house or apartment. Be honest and make a plan. Write it down.

Step two: Pick out a dry, room temperature place in your house or apartment, where you can start stock piling food, bottled water, plastic plates, cups, paper towels. I will put an entire list down later in this column.

By the way, you can store a lot of stuff under beds, in totes.

Step three: Don’t panic. live life, but consider the delicate nature of the America we now reside in.

Which is why I am writing this in context and sending this column far and wide. Most people simply refuse to wrap their brain around the possibility there can be a general breakdown in society. We always believe there will be enough local police, county sheriffs, state troopers, national guard and military to keep our homeland safe from roaming bands of thugs.

Well, there isn’t. I must be brutally honest. There wasn’t enough law enforcement to keep New Orleans in order after Katrina, and there will not be enough when the implosion hits.

Remember everything that went wrong in August 2003, when the Northeast lost power for a few days? Imagine the entire national power grid getting hit by hackers/terrorists and it taking weeks or months to get everything back on line?

I know what a lot of people think, that they will just run down to Wal-mart or Meijer and get a bunch of bottled water and canned goods at that point. It doesn’t work like that, and everyone knows it. What happens when the stores are empty? What happens when someone sticks a shotgun through your car window, and wants everything you just bought?

One excuse I heard from another friend was, that you can never stock pile because the kids just eat everything. You will have to stretch that budget a little more, buy cheaper brands, and build a stock pile slow and sure. Five cans of soup this week, one case of bottled water next week, a flashlight and extra batteries the week after that.

Below is a practical list and ideas for a $10 to $15/week budget.

 

1. Guns and Ammo.

I don’t care if couples fight over whether there should be a gun in the house. You will need protection as society can and will break down very fast. Look at how people fight at Wal-mart on Black Friday? People will kill for a 24 pack of bottled water, and they will come into your home and take it from you, at the end of a gun. Please buy at least one shotgun, and know how to properly use them. Buy ammo, lots of ammo.

Set aside $6 a week, in an envelope. At the end of one year you will have enough to get a good .12 gauge, pump action shotgun, at any gun show.

I have watched many couples and families go back and forth over whether there will be a gun around. Buy it, put a trigger lock on it, and call it a day. Black Friday folks, people fighting over who gets the last 19” TV on sale. There will be no police, sheriffs, or national guard to stop them. This is a reality.

2. Defending your family

This is where you and your family need to make a plan. If all of your family lives in close proximity, say five households, then decide which two houses can accommodate everyone, and are easily defended from gangs, thugs and people who will try and take everything you have.

When a society breaks down, the best you can pray for, is that the military will escort all workers to primary infrastructure facilities, such as water, sewage and some power plants. The best you can hope for, is that water will be kept running, so that toilets, tubs and sinks still work. Also pray that the implosion happens in April, so it is not cold and snowy in the North.

The stores will empty out inside of 12 hours, of everything that matters. The military will hopefully be able to provide basic foods and drinking water to nursing homes, hospitals, people in rec-centers, etc.

My guess is they will be far too busy just trying to keep roaming bands of idiots from stealing, raping, killing and destroying. My best guess is that there will be at least 200,000 escaped prisoners to worry about. Think about that when you are fretting over whether to set aside $6 a week for a good shotgun.

Well that is enough reality checks, to get my point across.

Please do not mis-understand my premise, most people are good. But when the power is cut off, water don’t run and there is no law, the scum rises up and takes over.

Suggestions for an Ark of Safety:

First rule, is to have enough supplies, so that you leave your home or apartment as little as possible. Restoration of authority is an unknown variable and you don’t want to gamble your life on unknowns.

Here is a list of obvious things to stock up on. I have included such things as tools, rope, duct tape, etc., because you will need to trade and barter with other neighborhoods at some point. Things you will need, that someone else has.

Tradable Commodities and ark building

- Food and Gasoline

- Motor Oil

- Water, bottled and fill empty 2-liter bottles to use as bathing water.

- Duct Tape

- Hand Tools - All Kinds

- Light Bulbs: incandescent (running generators is hard on bulbs, you will need them)

- Flashlights & Batteries

- Candles

- Matches

- Guns & Ammo

- Knives, hunting/survival style

- Work Gloves

- Alcohol (70% concentrated, for medicinal)

- Hydrogen Peroxide

- Band Aids & Gauze

- Rope

- Tarps

- Generator

- Walkie-Talkies

- MREs (Meals Ready to Eat), standard military field rations. You can buy them on ebay, and if stored at 70 degrees, they last six to eight years. Cost will vary, but they are the best thing in the world for proper diet. Each MRE is about 1200 calories, which you will need per meal, because you will be burning calories like crazy. MREs come with heaters for the meals, and they are activated with bottled water. When I was in Boy Scouts we used to get the old fashioned “K” rations or “C” rations. MREs are far superior. You can also google things like “Mountain House” which sells all kinds of supplies. Not cheap, but very good stuff. A friend of mine said their dry-freeze spaghetti was the best he ever had.

You can modify that list to fit your needs. Camping gear and army surplus gear is very handy. Sure glad I never threw any of mine away from my canoeing and back-packing days. People in the country will have a better chance of survival, because of sparse population. Suburbs and inner cities is where the real trouble will go down.

Pretty heavy stuff for sure. I do believe in the general goodness of people, I also have an equal belief that bad people can over power the better nature of society. Building an Ark of safety is not a conspiracy crazed response to headline news, it is a practical measured way to protect loved ones.

Recently Glen Beck mentioned building an Ark on his commentary news show. It makes me feel better, that at least one intelligent person in the media, is offering up editorial content on what will happen.

Some people are going to roll their eyes at you, wondering if you need some professional help. Ignore them, there is nothing paranoid about being prepared.

It is simple mathematics. A calamity goes down, and even four million police officers, sheriffs and military will not contain a social breakdown.

I live alone, but realistically I know I must take care of at least four people, including myself. I have written down my plan and make my preparations accordingly.

 

I don’t want to go into any more detail on individual preparations. It really is something that each family/group of friends need to consider for their own situation.

I have to share one final perception with all of you, from the world of economic analysis.

I always knew our federal government debt would hit 100% of our GDP. I thought it would happen under normal huge amounts of deficit spending, $350 to $450 billion a year. That 100% debt to GDP ratio came six years earlier than I thought. This fact alone, has changed how I personally model anything economic. The entire system has become so fragile, it is nearly impossible to make an educated guess on where the next disaster, planned or un-planned, will happen.

There is one thing I know for sure, we are truly in the middle of World War Three, as we speak. This time the global war is being fought with currencies. Many nations around the world want to see us crumble and fall to our knees. I know this even in a technical sense, as I’m 98% sure Saudi Arabia and Russia may have been involved in the banking credit crunch October 2008. That will be an upcoming Movement writing I assure you. I can only imagine what it will be like, when Japan, China, Russia and India demand a global currency, or else no more foreign financing of our debt. Things happen like that, throughout all of human history.

Scott my editor and I were discussing this Movement Writing the other day, and he made a very thoughtful point. He said our most important currency will be trust, if a general social breakdown occurs. Guns, ammo and bottled water aside, our trust in each other will see us through. The only thing I can add to Scott’s thoughtful insight and wisdom, is that I completely agree. I further trust that everyone reading this, feels the same way.

In the meantime, you now have to sit down with the skeptics in your family, friends and have an honest conversation. You yourself, may still be skeptical of the American situation I have theorized about today. Perfectly normal reaction, as this kind of discussion comes along so rarely. Yet discussion and action based on necessity is the back-bone of any society seeking security and freedom.

This is America, and we will save her lands and people. We are chosen, by the hand of God, to be a great people. Free, liberated and sole guardians against tyranny.

 

If you are reading this, then you are the Movement.

Would anyone like to see a movement writing about Love songs? Let me know. Also, I am thinking about doing a series on the world. Then FRN is going to concentrate about half our energies on the 2010 elections. Stay tuned, lots to come from FRN and lots of really cool things for you to partake. Shalom.

Words from the Several States” The Movement, Part 028

 

Economics 101, is talk radio still in the room? Final part

Jobs Jobs Jobs. Manufacturing jobs as a point of fact. There is no such thing as a truly free market system, unless it is based on gold/silver backed currency, manufacturing jobs and the ability to feed your own people.

Lets break it down:

This is something I have heard Thom Hartmann speak of many times, manufacturing jobs as a an economic base. He understands it, but in the same odd breath he wants a single payer health care system.

Jobs, section one:

All jobs matter, but some will always matter more than others. Manufacturing jobs are what really creates value in the market place, and tangible wealth for a working/middle class. Any time you are taking raw materials, adding human labor and producing a finished product, you are creating real value. A strong manufacturing base allows a free market to sustain a healthy local tax base. This allows you well financed Police departments, Fire departments, schools, good roads, sewage systems, etc.

When you have a strong manufacturing base you have less families depending on a welfare check. The more people that are working the less poverty there is. The less poverty there is, then crime goes down. Crime goes down and property values go up, cost of auto/home insurance goes down, due to safe communities.

The more people working, the more opportunity for advancement, innovation and general good living standards. Good sustainable jobs helps evolve the human condition.

It is far more simple than even basic economics.

Of course you will never hear the main-stream mush media cover economics in this honest fashion. They’re to busy creating class warfare by demanding you hate successful people and corporations that make those evil profits.

20 years ago America had 22 million manufacturing jobs and about 16 million government jobs. Today America has 14 million manufacturing jobs and slightly over 21 million government jobs.

It defies logic, a free market and a free society cannot be sustained in this upside down model.

Jobs, section two:

The government DOES NOT create jobs. It drives me to the orbits of Pluto when I hear government blow-bags and the media chorus talk about the number of jobs saved and created by the government.

When local, state and the federal government lower taxes, decrease regulations, it allows capital and innovation to take root in the private sector. It is the private sector free market that creates jobs. You actually gain more revenue through lower taxes,, due to more jobs and less payouts through welfare entitlement programs. Again, so simple even a liberal anchor person in the media can understand this.

Of course all of this means less government control over the market and over us simple folk, and that makes the main-stream media very sad. Pass the tissues please. Oh, that’s right, those tissues are made by a corporation that makes a profit.

Jobs, section three:

America is the most blessed nation on God’s green earth, when it comes to natural resources. We have it all. Oil, coal, gold, silver, iron ores, taconite, nickel, copper, shale’s, minerals of every kind and finally tons of fertile land.

America’s farm production and yields are like nothing else in human history. America can and does feed billions of people. Without the America farmer, the world would starve.

Food is so cheap, diverse and available in America, like no where else on the planet, literally. Which is especially beneficial to Polish-Italian heritage like myself, because I consider food a full contact sport.

When the Berlin wall came down and east Germans were able to see what other free nations had, it was all about bananas. Seriously, East Germany had gone nearly three generations without having bananas. Where as we can go into any Meijer and pick them up for 49 cents/LB.

Jobs jobs jobs. Section four:

During the decaxde that just ended, 2000 to 2009, America did not have a net gain in jobs. The population grew, by at least eight million, but job creation was dead in the water. This matters, because every previous decade from the 1940s on, we had a 20% increase in job creation. Government debt, inflation and trans-national corporations labor going overseas, has destroyed job growth in one decade. If we start doing all the basic things in section five, it will take 20 years for us to recover from this last decade.

Jobs jobs jobs. Section five:

If I were to tie in the global government series with this, it would be about simple, practical and fundamental fixes in policy and laws.

The “job” of Congress and the executive branch has become that of servant to special interest, corporate and banking interests and social engineering policy. Congress and the White House actually do a lot of work, but it is all narrow in scope and specific to who provided campaign money and support.

If Congress and the white did just the following:

- Eliminate the current tax code and replace it with a 5% national sales tax. You wouldn’t even need an IRS.

- Return to a gold/silver standard. Money has real value once again, not fake “assigned” value by the4 federal reserve.

- Remove restrictions on where and how health insurance companies sell policies. Better for the individual to have 1100 companies competing across America, than five or six competing in one state.

- Slowly start to phase social security, Medicare and Medicaid into private co-operatives, over a 20 year period.

You could put all that legislative language into a five page bill. Just those fundamental changes alone would see the greatness of America restored, government kept in check and a social fabric mended.

I call this series basic economics because that is where a strong foundation must be formed. Okay talk radio hosts, you’re dismissed.

If you are reading this, then you are the movement.

Next week is the Movement Writing I have been announcing. Over two months of writing time to get it just the way I feel the subject matter needs to be presented. “Ark of Safety” is really a culmination of what the Movement is all about. Not just another weekly column by some publisher/author, but a real thrust into the mind of humanity, as we become more active citizens and decide to improve this idea called America. Take this week and deeply reflect on all that you hold dear, and what you would be capable of doing to protect all of it.

ANNOUNCEMENT: Coming next week, “Ark of safety” The most important FRN Newsletter writing to date.

Words from the Several States: The Movement, part 027

Economics for everyone, including talk radio hosts, part 03

 

Conjunction junction what’s that function?

You know the next lyric, sing it with me, “Hooking up words and phrases and clauses.”

Okay, I’ll stick to my job of being a publisher and political consultant, cuz singing ain’t gonna make me enough for a happy meal.

But it is words, phrases and clauses that brings our Econ 101 classroom together, as FRN seeks to define terms. Define economic terms for what they are, in honest dissection, with the liberal elitist mis-interpretation and the conservative lack of full definition.

Practical and proper definition of common economic terms is essential. Especially with today’s main-stream media, which perverts every term and makes them ugly, and destroys the very prospect of good economic debate, discussion and education.

Hey main-stream media and talk radio hosts, pay attention, this is FRN Newsletter doing the heavy lifting once again.

Capitalism:

Liberal elitist perversion: Rich white men, who control all the corporations and all the banks, stealing all the wealth in all the world, and keep black people and Hispanics from having anything. Capitalism is greed, made off the backs of hard working union people, who never get a fair wage or working conditions. Plus, the only time rich white men spend any money, is when they build more plants, more office buildings so they can make more money off the poor.

Conservative half-definition: The everyday application of venture capital being used to promote economic growth. The overall theory as to how business owners conduct business in a free-market.

FRN practical definition and comment: I can see the hate mail already, from close minded Liberals who do not fully understand how money and investment actually work. Unfortunately, though the conservative definition is correct in a technical aspect, most people look at that and say “Yeah, those ‘republicans’ will say anything to protect their rich white business friends.

So, Mr. Hartmann, please pay attention. If the free market is the engine, than capitalism is the oil, lubricating those pistons, and allowing economic power to be created.

Is their necessary greed within daily practices of capitalism? Of course. Again, Greed like love, hate and envy, will be with humanity forever. They are foundation precepts of what we are as an animal. Just remember the balance of greed, for every one greedy business person or politician, there are 10,000 who are honest, fair and still turning healthy profit.

Capitalism allows for opportunity, allows for innovation, allows for failure and recognition. Capitalism, if applied to all the poor nations on the planet, would see them with increased economic output, higher standard of living and increased freedom.

Capitalism is the first “natural law“ of the free market enterprise.

The four components of the monetary system: These are technical definitions commonly accepted. Liberal elitists would pass these off in a classroom, as terminology only used by banks and economists. I disagree, these are good basic definitions that everyone can use to more properly follow economic news.

Components of the U.S. Monetary System

M0: Notes and coins (currency) in circulation and in bank vaults, plus reserves which commercial banks hold in their accounts with the central bank (minimum reserves and excess reserves). This is the base from which other forms of money (like checking deposits, listed below) are created and is traditionally the most liquid measure of the money supply. M0 is usually called the monetary base. The designation M0 may lead to confusion because it seems to imply that M0 is part of M1, which is not strictly the case. [8]

M1: M1 includes funds that are readily accessible for spending. M1 consists of: (1) currency outside the U.S. Treasury, Federal Reserve Banks, and the vaults of depository institutions; (2) traveler's checks of nonbank issuers; (3) demand deposits; and (4) other checkable deposits (OCDs), which consist primarily of negotiable order of withdrawal (NOW) accounts at depository institutions and credit union share draft accounts. [9]

M2: Equals M1 + savings deposits, time deposits less than $100,000 and money market deposit accounts for individuals. M2 represents money and "close substitutes" for money.[10] M2 is a broader classification of money than M1. Economists use M2 when looking to quantify the amount of money in circulation and trying to explain different economic monetary conditions. M2 is a key economic indicator used to forecast inflation.[11]

M3: Equals M2 + large time deposits, institutional money-market funds, short-term repurchase agreements, along with other larger liquid assets.[12] M3 is no longer published or revealed to the public by the US central bank.[13] However it is estimated by the web site Shadow Government Statistics. [14]

Recession:

Liberal elitist spin: Rich white businessmen throwing the economy into a tail spin, so they can make money off devalued assets. They cut the workforce so they can line their own pockets with more money, gold, houses, cars, boats and evil profits.

Conservative half definition: Economic slowdown, higher unemployment.

FRN practical definition: We accept the definition of recession as defined by dictionaries near and far. A recession is two consecutive quarters of negative economic output. Plain and simple.

Run on the banks:

Liberal: People taking what is theirs before the banks lose it all.

Conservative: Deposit withdrawals in cash form.

FRN practical: When there is far more assets leaving the bank, than they have reserves to cover.

Words from the Several States: The Movement, part 026

 

Economics for everyone, including talk radio hosts, part 02

 

I hope Thom Hartmann’s feelings are not hurt to badly. The majority of talk radio hosts across this nation have a passing understanding of economics. A very select few, have a firm grasp.

Liberal talk hosts have a tendency to miss-understand the term “market place.” Conservative talk hosts have a tendency not to define the market place in it’s most basic form.

This is where the FRN classroom picks up, the market place is not some cold, unfeeling term.

The “market place” is us, all of us. Everyday hundreds of millions of Americans making decisions on buying, not buying and the reasons behind those decisions. Liberal elitist leaders think those decisions can be managed or controlled. Furthermore, Liberal elitists believe they can mange or control the market place in ways that will benefit everyone.

Right now I am stocking up on incandescent light bulbs, because I choose not to use the new mercury filled bulbs. They use less energy and last three to five years, I don’t care. I do not want a mercury bulb breaking in my house and the hazards of trying to dispose of that mercury. I also have Glaucoma and am legally blind, it is hard for me to read with soft-light incandescent bulbs, but I can. Those new bulbs are very hard on my eyes.

So I am proudly hording light bulbs here in south eastern Michigan. The government has passed laws banning incandescent bulbs in four years. So I must stock up now, for the rest of my life.

And others? They will go right out and buy those new mercury bulbs and be quite happy.

By the way, if you would like to join the hording of incandescents, Meijer’s brand four packs are 79 cents. Yeah Baby!

We all make economic decisions for different reasons. Also, I plan to start a “contraband light bulb” business, when those mercury bulbs are all that is left, and people will pay top dollar for incandescent. The free market can never be stopped.

But that is not what I wanted to write about, I want to discuss the cycle of money creation and destruction, for today’s classroom. Understanding the actual money cycle is the foundation of economics. So here come the bullet points:

- Our entire monetary system is based on debt notes, created by the 12 privately owned federal reserve banks. It is illegal for debt notes to be created by any private entity. Article one, section eight, clause five of the Constitution is clear and precise.

- The Treasury department must sell enough bonds, securities and note-vehicles to cover the federal government’s debt. Treasury announces a sale, and posts the amount of bonds, securities, etc.

- Treasury bonds, notes, etc. are bought in the open market by foreign banks, foreign central banks, private banks, other government agencies and our federal reserve.

- Every time the FED buys one dollar of treasury issued notes, it must create one dollar in federal reserve notes, to purchase that treasury vehicle.

- The federal government (you and me) then owe the federal reserve banks that principle, plus interest service payments. We also owe the Fed for the cost of printing and distribution.

- That federal reserve financed government debt, now is out in the market place, and it is inflationary dollars. It will cause the price of everything to go up, and causes the value of property to go down.

- Real wages in America have been stagnant for 30 years, due to increased federal reserve financing of larger federal government debt.

I take a deep breath here and say again, so that all may digest. Government debt will never stop, inflation will never stop, destruction of our standard of living will never stop, until the federal reserve act is repealed and we return to a Constitutionally required gold/silver standard.

America has already gone bankrupt, sooner rather than later, the federal reserve will be responsible for debasing our dollar.

America actually has a mixed economy at this point. 50% of the economy is us, free market choices being made millions of times a day. Today at Meijer’s I bought two Spiderman action figures for a young boy’s Christmas present. Normally I would never buy action figures, I’m 42 and rarely buy toys. Some people buy toys all the time. Some buy toys and re-sell them on Ebay, Craigslist. If you feel the need, yen or desire to buy me toys, please do, I love presents. Different examples of free market choices. The other 50% of the economic decisions are made by the twelve people who sit on the Federal Open Market Committee. That is the decision making board of the federal reserve. As Congress and the White House stumble over themselves to give the FED even more authority, they will someday control the entire economy. The FED already creates an artificial business cycle, through raising and lowering interest rates and liquidity in the system.

I am ending this by making page 3 a page you can print off or copy/paste and then [print, if you are reading from an e-mail. It remains the FRN Newsletter petition for returning to a gold/silver standard.

There is nothing more basic about American and proper economics, than money backed with gold or silver.

By the way, with the recent attempted Al-Qaida attack on the Northwest flight coming into Detroit; does anyone still believe we can rationalize with these terrorists? They want us all dead, they want America destroyed. Time to take them out, all of them. This is not a knee-jerk reaction or tough guy talk. It is not something I say out of ignorance of the larger social issues surrounding the many different cultures of the middle east. These terrorists have mis-wired brains, either from birth or radical indoctrination. It is a fool’s errand to think we can somehow just pull all our troops out of the middle east, and they will leave us alone. They have declared war on us, and we need to fight a war.

Words from the Several States: The Movement, part 025

Economics for everyone, including talk radio hosts, part 01

Okay, hold them right there, now push . . . . Come on, one more biiiiiig push. Hurry, lock the door.

Wow, that was hard, but we just crammed every talk radio host in America into the brand new “economics 101” classroom. Thanks for the hand, no way I could’ve shoved them all in by myself.

So stick around for this column series, as I quill an open letter to America’s talk radio hosts on the dynamics of economics and capitalism.

It was Thom Hartmann who put me over the edge this week, as he was going on and on that governments create markets, economies and corporations. Unfortunately he is not alone in how he thinks. Some parts of economics Mr. Hartmann is dead on, but he has a little ways to go. His Liberal views sometimes cloud his good economic sense.

Once and for all, lets really break down economics and the political philosophies that affect markets and closed-loop systems.

Yes, you in the back, Mr. Hartmann, please pay attention, as this will be the best economic education you will ever receive.

 

Mr. Hartmann, FRN Newsletter breaks in down the way no one else can.

Government systems and political philosophies: How they affect free-market and close loop systems.

Communism and Socialism

This two political theories have led to the largest amount of economic abuse of human beings, in our history. When governments employ either of these political practices, you will have a close-loop economic system. All ownership, decision making and distribution is handled by a central authority within that respective nation’s government. There is no private property and by extension no true self identification.

Oddly enough socialism and communism do not remove the greed factor from a society. Dare I say you could never remove that component, as greed is based on one person’s tendency to take or acquire more than what they “need.” which brings into the mathematics the definition of what one needs.

Oh yes, greed exists in close-loop systems, it is the ruling political authority that has everything and seeks to keep it that way.

Close-loop systems will always have the lowest standard of living for the general population of that host nation. Poverty, lack of property, business ownership and lack of legal means to acquire more, will keep a population in check. Governments have been doing it to their people for thousands of years.

Why any educated society would ever use such a close-loop system is beyond me. Innovation, creative problem solving and the ability to fail are the only things that will ever see a society prosper. It is the natural dynamics of life and it cannot be controlled properly by any close-loop system.

Liberal Elitism

This is a recent and unfortunate hybrid in political philosophy and practice. Modern Liberal elitism has only been around for just over 100 years, but it has left a brutal mark on the human condition. I have written about this before, how liberal elitists are actually far worse than socialists or communists. I will transfer that definition now into the economic model.

Liberal elitism is the slow economic destruction of a free market system, that leads to government control, which leads to government authority, which will eventually lead to socialism and fascism; If the cycle is not broken. It is an absolute mathematical certainty.

Liberal elitism will always bring down a host nation’s standard of living through debt and fiat money creation.

It starts, as always, when a few powerful people convince a larger group of intellectuals, that a large government does good things and never harms.

The most recent example of this in human history is America.

 

Side note on human thinking and the human soul:

The most unremarkable constant I have found, in over 30 years of political activism, is that 98% of people who consider themselves “Liberal” or “Conservative” want exactly the same thing for our free society. They want what is good, just and proactive. Further to that, 98% of conservatives are very good people, they do not seek power for power’s sake. On the liberal side the same is true. 98% of liberals are good people, who see any level of government as a tool for doing good.

The problem within Liberal theory is the elitists, who do not want to help or do good. They seek power and authority for the sake of social engineering. On an intellectual level, they are able to convince the other 98% that what is controlled by government, will benefit everyone. Creating a utopia and world without fear.

Liberal elitism is of course, a tremendous lie. It is, in my estimation, a very sinister and evil way to view humanity. Elitists consistently believe, that they are chosen to help us all, because we are so incapable of living our lives without the guidance of their genius.

This never ceases to boil me up with anger and rage, as I watch liberal elitist treat entire populations as pets.

Liberal elitism has now penetrated American political and social thinking for five generations. It has taken the majority of Liberals from the thinking of “Government should do for a people only what they cannot do themselves” to “Government needs to take care of this, that and the other thing, because that is why we pay taxes.”

Anytime you turn control, of your private life, a free market system or your personal goals, over to a government system, you are giving in to the horrors of liberal elitism.

The elitists will simply create more debt, grow the government, tell you what and how to live, then offer you a lollipop and demand you worship them.

If that truism offends any of you liberal elitists in America, tough.

Free-Market Conservatism

You know, all those rich white men, who control all of the corporations, banks and investment houses. All those white men who run the entire world, and toss scraps of meat from their table, for the masses to fight over.

That political media spin on free-market conservatism is laughable, especially since I just described the truth about liberal elitism.

Not so long ago I had a friend tell me, that because I am a white man, I could never understand how hard it is in this world and never know the struggle of women, blacks and other minorities. The friend then went on to tell me, that I will always have a certain “privilege” in America, because I am a white man. I was also told that I was to blame.

For the record, I don’t keep company with that “friend” anymore, and do not intend to change our situation in the future. I mean seriously, do friends really treat other friends like that? No matter, I mention it here, because it brings an individual context to my economics 101 classroom.

First off, Greed. As with greed inside socialism and communism, you will never stop it from happening inside free markets. Business people (you know, all those horrible rich white men), will abuse the free market system. They will for no reason, except financial gain, ruin a company, and take a multi-billion dollar parachute where they safely land in wealth and luxury.

Greed is as much a part of economics and the human condition as love.

There are business people who do what they do, out of love. They love to innovate, create and build. These business people are the huge majority within the free-market system. For them the greatest accomplishment, is when they grow their business enough, to create a new job, and hire a new employee. I’ve seen it happen many times, with my own eyes. It is the very essence of human evolution, to watch an entire society have it’s standard of living increased through the fruits of honest hard labor.

Mr. Hartmann, please listen to me closely, free-market conservatism, even with it’s greed factor, is the only economic system that will ever benefit a growing free society. Everything else, is merely a recipe for control and eventual painful disaster.

I am able to say this, for two reasons.

One: I made a promise to myself and all of my readers, that my analysis of economics and politics would always be straight forward. If that means Liberals, conservatives, democrats. socialists and republicans take it on the chin, during these writings, then so be it. The truth is the truth, and FRN Newsletter will be the one media outlet that will say it, even if it makes some uncomfortable.

Two; I am a small business owner. FRN Newsletter has yet to make a profit, and I have two people that make their contributions for free. Someday, if I keep toiling, working hard enough, this small independent publishing company will turn a profit. I will create jobs and hire a staff, who will be properly compensated for the work, skills and talents they bring to the company. That will be a fabulous day, and the harder I work, the sooner it will come.

Like any smart business person, in a free-market system, I know government has a rightful place. Commerce does need to be regulated amongst the several states, so that prices and business practice benefit a continued free market growth.

Job creation is everything in a free-Market. Taking raw materials, adding labor, and producing finished products is what builds real wealth in a free society. If you truly want to end poverty, don’t look for government hand outs, create jobs. When people are game fully employed, they are building a life, not sitting around being jealous of what the other guy has.

That concludes my thumbnail impression of how political philosophies and government systems affect economies.

“FED update”

Congressman Ron Paul and several economists were on the Glenn Beck show on FOX. They were giving a very detailed breakdown on how the FED works, how money is created, how debt-based currency is destroying our standard of living. Then the finale, when they said how we must return to a gold standard. Rep. Paul said it will happen outside Washington, from people rising up and making it happen. He is of course 100% correct. Small moments like that keep me going, and that should keep you going. Keep getting those signatures, mail in those petition signature pages, we can win this battle and save American freedom.

“ If you are reading this, then you are The Movement”

12.20.2009

Words from the Several States, The Movement part 25a

In memory of James Kenzie

It is very important that you know the context of when I started this movement writing, because I feel a great urgency to write about the World War II generation. I started this column 25 minutes after leaving my friend Polly, at her father’s funeral. Mr. James Kenzie, World War II veteran. I never got to meet Polly’s father and that will always be my loss.

In a perfect world, where I have the time, I would set up a website and write nothing but WWII columns and interview surviving veterans. Maybe that can be a side project I develop when book sales increase.

It is now 2009 and America is rapidly losing the greatest generation.

For everything I have written about fiat money and what we need to do as a nation, I ask each and every one of you to do the following.

Listen to their stories. If you happen to meet a WWII veteran, take the time and let them tell you their stories. Let them tell you every detail, no matter how small. Sit there and listen to them 15 times in a row, if need be.

I have written before about my favorite segment of American and World history, which is WWII. I could never read enough as a kid, or even now as an adult. Thankfully my parents, aunts and uncles were from the WWII generation, so I got to hear many stories.

I have spent every second I can, listening to WWII veterans tell their stories. It is the only direct connection my generation will ever have to such a transcendent point in human history.

I am a Patriot and proudly proclaim it from the mountain tops.

Patriotism isn’t some nice quaint little political theory. It is not something you learn or something that can be taught. Patriotism is something you feel burning inside your soul, about America.

If I could use just one word to describe the World War II generation, it would be “Patriotism.”

America’s fierce patriotism not to see the empire of Japan make the Pacific their personal lake, was how we defeated them. America’s fierce patriotism to not see National Socialism engulf all of Europe, and eventually the world, was how we defeated Nazi Germany and Hitler.

Fierce Patriotism is when you are willing to take up arms, and defend your nation from all threats, foreign and domestic. The very finest example will always be the WWII generation.

America does have serious enemies as I quill this column. America has serious problems here at home, as the government and it’s power spiral increasingly out of control.

There is only one thing that will pull us through, Patriotism.

You see, our enemies can hit our builds, attack our cities and murder innocent people.

They cannot stop our freedom, because it is based on a people who have sworn allegiance to an idea. An idea that we the people are individuals who control our lives, our government and our destiny.

You cannot stop the idea of freedom and patriotism.

Americans, we saved the world from tyranny in the 1940s, and we will rise up through Patriotism, and save the world yet again.

Though my friend Polly lost her father, who was called home to be with his Lord and God, his Patriotism remains the ever breathing gift. The gift his generation gave to the entire world during our darkest hour.

It is wonderful for me to know Mr. Kenzie’s daughter, as I can see the goodness of him, through her heart.

Take the time, and listen to every World War II veteran you can. Listen to their stories and discover the true meaning and very essence of Patriotism.

If you are reading this, then you are the movement.

Post Script Muse

There is a wonderful Christian artist, Nichole Nordman, who sings a song entitled “What If?” One lyric in the song goes “What if there is hope you never dreamed of hoping for?”

In America, we have eternal hope, through Patriotism, that our nation will ascend. That ascension is the blanket of freedom. “V” is for “Victory” my countrymen.

“Words from the Several States” The Movement Part 024

It was just about 14 months ago when my economic thinking included a double-dip recession. Mainly I didn’t see enough consumer spending to fight off a second dip, due to a collapsing commercial real-estate bubble.

The last two months have seen economists across America catching up with FRN Newsletter. That’s fine, we will always be on the cutting edge of economic analysis. Reason being, we’re not trying to spin analysis to affect government policy.

I hear the liberal elitist economists on the news all the time now, talking about how all of us need to accept a new normal. Economic growth at 1% to 3% for the next ten years.

They say that because they know exactly how bad their liberal spending policies have screwed up the level of debt. They also know that real good economic growth will never happen, as long as debt is high, the federal reserve creates a boom/bust business cycle and we stay on debt-based currency. They know all of that, but I am the one speaking the truth on it.

But that’s not what I wanted to start talking about in this column, I just wanted all of you to know that I’m keeping a watchful eye on all the really smart economists that go on CNN and lie, and spin and use worn out phrases that mean nothing. Tell all your friends and family, that for “one stop” economic truth, FRN Newsletter is just a click away.

The federal budget, yes, that’s what burns my eyeballs these days, while PDFing around the OMB website. I will have to break down the current 2009 budget, since 2010 is not even completed enough to include all agencies and departments.

I have been reviewing federal government budgets since 1991 and I gotta tell ya, they not only get bigger, they become worse every year. I miss the good old budget days, when the dumbest appropriation was $500,000 for a toilet convention.

It no longer is just about cutting waste, programs and agencies that are not the federal government’s responsibility; its far deeper.

The federal budget process has become a means for social engineering, redirecting industries, entitlement pay offs and “traditional” pay offs.

I also do this as a lesson in the fundamentals of economics. Every time the federal government “spends” one of your dollars, it creates about $1.45 in economic activity. But remember, that dollar has to first be borrowed from the federal reserve, and all the debt creation we’ve discussed many times. When a dollar is used solely within the private sector, for purchasing, investing, capital, etc., it will create $3 to $4 of economic activity. These are not numbers pulled out of thin air, they are actual fundamentals of how economic activity is created.

Sorry, I got long winded on the philosophy behind federal budgets, but you know me, I always bottle up my ends. Even if I need to use a 2-liter bottle to hold them all.

 

The 2009 federal budget and what I would cut: A lot pf copy/paste to follow, so I don’t have to type all the $Billions in waste. Dollar amounts are in Millions.

First subject is TARP. I would not have bailed out the banks, sorry, no can do. Either those banks would’ve found private sector capital, or they would’ve gone under. You know we’ve had 125 failed banks this year, and that is post-TARP. The banking system is weak and over blown with debt, plain and simple. That would’ve saved $800 Billion right of the get go.

Dept. of Agriculture: So much cutting needs to be done here. Farmers being paid not to grow, subsidies that make food more expensive. it’s a nightmare agency. Agriculture in America would increase with a federal department. The agency is a pay-off scheme, I’m just the one and only economist tom call it what it is.

So let me get this straight, America has the most successful, innovative and dynamic free-market economy in the history of the planet; and we need a federal department of commerce?

The only thing we need, according to the Constitution is a census bureau to take a count of the citizenry, to properly draw Congressional House districts. Yes, I do believe article one is quite specific on this. Oh yeah, they stuck the patent office in there as well, I saved that. I also saved the council’s office because I hate the idea of a government lawyer out on the DC streets. I also saved the International trade Administration. I’m a softy.

Department of Education:

As I have written many times, incepted by President Kennedy in 1961. Originally part of the Department of Health, Education & Human services. President Carter made the Education department a cabinet level entity in 1979. The department employs 5,000 people and I have no clue as to what they are trying to accomplish. I only know it sucks huge tax dollars which could be spent by local governments directly, and with a far better impact on education. How the heck did America survive our first 203 years, without a federal education department?

Total, Discretionary budget authority 4 ..................$59.2 Billion

 

That is $953 Billion and I’m just warming up. Even using a conservative economic activity model, this would create $3 Trillion of economic purchasing and investment over a 24 month period. Which doesn’t even take into account how much stronger our dollar would be around the world. These cuts alone would see GDP of 11% increase over that 24 month period, creating millions of jobs. Best part we would save existing industries and create whole new ones; millions of jobs. Oh yes, no inflation, just solid economic growth. Not to mention that a growing economy creating jobs tends to stay in motion. You could see a 12 year growth cycle, which would double the standard of living for the entire nation. This is what happens when you cut the size of the federal government and let people govern themselves, which I believe the founding father were quite specific on.

We will make this part 01 of my budget cuts and I’ll swing back around and do some more when I get bored or whatever.

Balancing the federal budget is incredibly easy, you just take out everything that the federal government shouldn’t be sticking their nose into.

If you are reading this, then you are the movement.

“Words from the Several States” The Movement part 023

Global Government: Doing what we can and preparing for the aftermath, Part 05

End of days will come. It is my belief and analysis that world events point towards this axiom.

I have started my readings of John 15 and the applicable chapters of Revelation. I do see the links or parallels to Mathew 24, but that will have to serve as addendum columns to this series. It could be six months of research before I feel my analysis may warrant political critique. The Bible is very hard to understand, interpret and I do not want to rush that process, since it is the word of God.

To that end I will leave you with this one thought on Revelation and the breaking of the fourth seal. I have researched this one factor enough, to confirm it refers to global economic upheaval. The 2007 to present, global banking/real estate transformation, is the beginning part of that fourth seal. The affects of which will be felt for another two decades minimum. Again, it has to do with the hydraulics of things in motion, the amount of debt sloshing around the world. All of it going unchecked by world leaders. That leaves three more seals to go, before the final battle. It could be 25 years or 100 years to break those seals. Nobody knows and it remains a fool’s errand to guess.

Preparation: The important work begins . . . .

 

Number 01: Accepting our limitations and our destiny.

A global government will unfold, is unfolding and we as Americans, will lose more freedoms over the next two or three decades. It cannot be stopped, it is the destiny of the world, as current leaders are of the this mindset. They hold all of the power. We need to accept this reality and not allows ourselves further deception. This “internal honesty”

will give us the proper foundation for moving forward.

Number 02: Breaking the cycle with political movement

The Tea Party Movement in America is one very good example of that cycle being snapped in half. As many people going to these tea parties, calling their leaders, writing letters and being involved for the first time. We have a new dynamic introduced and that changes things. It starts the journey, to regular folk restoring freedom.

People start educating themselves in politics, economics and the hydraulics of how governments work. Then people come together and discuss further, make plans and then take action. From that action is born the children of higher voter turnout, better candidates and future generations seeing their parents taking leadership positions in the community.

If I can be so bold as to quote Dawn Wildman of the tea party movement, who told me in a recent interview, “Today’s idiot who is elected dog catcher, will be tomorrow’s national leader we are grooming.”

Dawn and the tea party movement is of course, right on the money.

So the new goal remains, to start electing current day city councils, mayors, state reps, etc., who will become tomorrow’s honest statesmen, to protect the constitution.

Brace yourself, because it will take two, three or four decades. It also will not stop global government in motion, as we have such a long lag-time factor to over come.

There are other movements in America, such as the Conservative ascension taking root.

Also, national health care across Europe is failing, as small pockets of privatization start to form in those countries. There are strong independent party movements in Denmark, Germany and Sweden. Yes, Sweden. America’s Libertarian party has also seen heavy exposure for their 2008 presidential candidate.

It is slow growth, to get things like this moving, but they are moving.

Number 03: Not a conspiracy, a recap.

I don’t believe or endorse that a global government is some kind of conspiracy. It is not. Most world leaders and all other powerful people in the world, are openly moving all nations towards this reality. These people are working on a North American Union, a larger U.N., I.M.F. and WTO. There is no reason to hide it, since 43% of people don’t vote. You see my correlation?

A large part of preparing everyone for the aftermath, is to not waste energy and time on things that are not a conspiracy.

Number 04: Educating ourselves

This is where 80% of our energies need to be. I can only speak for what we must do as Americans, the rest of the world will need to figure how they want to rebuild after a global government ruins everything.

Inside my sometimes “weird” thought process, I would like to see every well informed voting citizen, politically “adopt” a non-voter citizen. Hey, don’t think the idea to far fetched, all of us informed voters are going to have to help them at some point. We may as well bring a little structure to the process.

So, if we all started educating a non-voter, then we could have them up to speed in a 10 to 20 year period. It does take that long, maybe 30 years in some cases. I suggest this idea only partially tongue in cheek.

Seriously now, we need to read the Constitution, start following politics, economics, news and use many different sources. We need to teach our children and grand children, that being involved with the political process is a normal and necessary function of every voting age American. John Adams wrote very passionately, about the constant need for citizen participation, in order to maintain a free America.

I believe high school civics’ classes should be four semesters, not just one. The first class should teach the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution, nothing else.

I think college level political science courses are an absolute joke, with the possible exception of Hillsdale college in Michigan. I have talked with many Masters and PH’D political science grads, and I am not impressed with their core knowledge or their ability to apply the theory of limited republic philosophy in everyday practice. What I’m trying so delicately to say is that they’ve all been indoctrinated, not taught.

It is a life-long process of learning and teaching the other generations. The education of our politics, society, etc., never ends.

Number 05: “One evening a month”

I am going to hammer away on this point, because I fully believe the seriousness of “end of days”, and what level of involvement it takes, to rebuild a nation and a world.

I don’t know how many political activist there are, involved at my level in this nation, but I venture no more than 10,000.

That would be people who have made it a life-long learning process to stay educated in politics, economics and the news of the world. That would be people who run some kind of newsletter, have written books and drafted legislative proposals for Congressional consideration.

Wow, when I write out that level of commitment, I’m thinking 10,000 may be a high number. No matter, for the government can always do their best to ignore us, but they are losing that battle, now that we have such a huge Internet impact.

The real political movement is everyone willing to use one evening a month of time, to be politically active.

Again, it does not matter what cause you take up, because there are so many out there. If one million citizens get involved one evening a month in changing our federal tax policy, that’s great. Another million get involved with changing our foreign policy, that’s great.

So forth and so on.

This comes down and around to the one unavoidable simple truth, you are the only one that can do your share. If you are not doing your share, then it makes the impending global government more aggressive, and the rebuilding take longer, because there is one less voice, two less hands and one less mind, to do the work.

I simply will not accept the line “I’m to busy, I have no time for being politically active.”

 

Sorry, don’t buy it. If I a lose readers over this level of honesty than I lose a reader. Usually I lose one reader a week, but I try to add ten new media outlets every week, so I’m fine.

I also no longer will accept this “My vote doesn’t count, they do what they want and it don’t matter what I think.”

Again this is an excuse to be a lazy citizen.

I may lode a reader or three from that level of honesty. To bad, we’re all grown ups and adults, there is no time to baby anyone.

I live in Lincoln Park, MI. population 38,237. I attend the city council meetings on Monday nights, as part of my personal learning process of local government. Its grueling at times, let me tell you, but I sit there and stay engaged because it matters. Even when there is a hot-button city-wide issue, we only get about 50 residents, one local newspaper reporting and TV station covering it. Last Monday, there were eight of us, sitting there. I know that residents also watch on local access cable, but you see my point.

There are 100 million eligible voters who need to start voting and every voting age adult needs to spend one evening a month, being politically active. It is the only way we will rebuild this nation after global government is handed power by our federal leaders.

It may be a very bad idea to share this with you, but I believe in rushing in where angels fear to tread.

The year of 2009 has seen me suffer many personal loses, including a serious part of my vision, due to cataracts and weak retina muscles. It is very depressing and sometimes I don’t even perform well at work, because my eyes affect my attitude and it becomes one big mess.

All of that remains my personal battles and challenges to overcome. I reference it here, because it has greatly affected how I think about America the last eleven months. I find myself only seeing the darkness and I know it is because I’m going through my own personal darkness.

I choose to say all that, because everyone can relate. All of us relating to an idea or experience, is where the root of discussion begins, where action takes flight. Where change is born.

I also believe you cannot keep a good man, woman or nation down.

We live in the most wonderful and beautiful of nations. We still live in the freest of nations and one with endless opportunities. In a word, we are blessed.

I know people will here my battle cry and become involved, I know they will start dragging their friends, families and enemies to political functions. There’s an idea, drag your enemies to political events.

I know this will happen because we are Americans and we do not lay down, for no leader or government authority.

I know this and I believe . . . .

If you are reading this, then you are the movement.

Global Government: Belief that politicians do what is best (self-deception), Part 04

“Words from the Several States” The Movement part 022

Global Government: Belief that politicians do what is best (self-deception), Part 04

This may be the hardest column to write in this global government series, because I now turn the magnifying glass on us, the regular folk.

It is a bitter pill to swallow, that we practice self deception. I am no different than anyone else. Before I took a serious look at the world around me, and decided to do something, to be involved, I deceived myself everyday.

Lets turn this into a cleansing moment and brew some positive energy for the fight ahead.

Self deception, broken down:

Number 01:

We believe election after election, that politicians serving us are there to essentially do good. We know deep inside ourselves this is not true.

Most politicians elected are on a quest, for the next higher office, the next political campaign contribution and the next line on their life’s resume.

Proving the theorem: If we were to elect all good people, over a six year period, and they all served the Constitution, then it would take remarkably little time, to restore our liberties.

So we cling to the same old worn out lines. We tell ourselves and those around us, “We just need to give them more time to do the right things. They just need more time to do good for the country.”

How many times has someone said it to you? How many times have you said it yourself?

We all have, for decades on end.

Most recent example is of course, President Obama. I hear it all the time, everywhere I go, “He needs more time to get good things done for us.” I listen to these strangers and I am just numb. President Obama is a socialist and Liberal elitist, he will never do what is right for America, because his political thinking and philosophical beliefs are against the Constitution. He can not and will not change those beliefs simply because some Americans walk around in an ignorant daze saying “He will do what is best, if we just give him more time.”

Most people who are elected to public office cannot handle power and the authority to spend taxpayer’s money. It is a simple brutal truth.

Lets free ourselves right now from this mindset. It will allow us to ask the right questions, when candidates come a knockin and we will be proper in our thinking; to ask them hard questions.

Number 02:

The next level of self deception is that practiced by those who choose not to vote. Non-voters believe that their vote doesn’t matter, because politicians will do whatever they want, so their vote doesn’t count. It is a circular logic. 43% of eligible voters in America do not vote. Roughly 100 million citizens. There are times when that one fact, makes me so sad, that I have to push myself just to keep FRN Newsletter going, besides all my other political work. The freest nation in the world, where you do not have to fear soldiers in the streets when you vote, and only 57% turn out. That’s during the big Presidential elections. It is a much worse turnout during the “off years.”

This group is also hoping that someone else will just take care of America’s problems, that someone else will do their share for them.

Which is wrong and I will not hold back here.

Every citizen is responsible for doing their own share, to votes, to keep watchful eyes on all levels of government, and to serve their community in some capacity.

How the hell can someone do your share? I mean really, think about the logic being used here.

I have written several columns and have an entire newsletter page dedicated to “one evening a month.” How everyone should work into their schedules the equivalent of one evening a month, do be politically involved.

I hear the arguments already from the non-voters, “I don’t have time, I’m busy with kids, I’m busy with work, people will think I’m weird.” so forth and so on.

I reject all those excuses out-right. For they are just that, excuses not to be involved in solutions.

The political establishment (read Democratic and Republican parties), love non-voters. It is far easier for both parties to maintain their control, if they have fewer voters to manipulate and lie to.

They may get up on the campaign trail and encourage everyone to vote, but it is just another deception.

Number 03:

The belief that it doesn’t really affect you, and as long as you ignore it, it never will.

A large over-bearing federal government affects everyone, and a looming global government will affect everyone ten times as much.

The problem of a global government cannot be ignored.

People can deceived themselves all day, but it does not change the truth, that things are in motion.

Well all of that kind of puts me in a funk. I am truly not going to spend one moment of my life, trying to stop anyone from deceiving themselves.

My political goals have always been to stop the federal reserve, be active in national politics and get as much good information out there as possible.

But I will not spend time, trying to convince grown adults to change their behavior. Its not my place, not FRN Newsletter’s mission and certainly that ownership is an individual journey.

I will share this:

I used to deceive myself into thinking, that if I made all the right contacts at just the right time, I could get one of FRN’s legislative proposals considered in a sub-committee. Man was I in denial of the truth. Let me tell you brother.

Then about ten years ago I learned the true meaning of Christmas, as it were, and realized I needed millions of people to sign petitions and have my back.

Now matters are worse, considering a global government. self-deception is selfishness.

 

We have leaders within the federal government, that are rapidly turning over power to international groups, agencies and entities. Do not deceive yourself into believing that this is not happening.

If you are reading this, then you are the movement.

“Words from the Several States” The Movement part 021

Global Government: Infrastructure is everything: Part 03

We could have gone to a cashless society in 1967, when credit card processing became available.

Today in 2009, you can get a cell phone signal even if you're scaling mountains in Nepal.

Being a technology geek, it is easy to see how an anti-Christ or a great deceiver could use such infrastructure.

To control the world through a one government system you only need access and power over:

– Communication

– Intellectual property

– Military command and control

 

Communication:

I’m not talking secure satellite up-links or coded e-mails. I’m talking control over how we communicate, deliver news, stop news, etc.

Where to even begin.

The most important presidential debate was truly 1960, Nixon verses Kennedy. People listening to the radio thought Nixon won, people watching TV though Kennedy won. Style over substance, and so forever, has politics been changed. The TV producer that night commented, that the media could now package and sell any candidate on TV. The gentleman would go onto produce 60 minutes.

We now communicate politically, through TV ad buys, negative news coverage and not covering some politicians or parties at all. The main-stream media has become the fourth branch of government. Pundits, anchor people and reporters worship political leaders and it gets worse with each passing election.

The media does not care about substance, the constitution or reporting impartially on any political race. What they care about is getting political ad buys, and being in the good graces of which ever candidate is on top.

This last presidential election is the most glaring example, as the media made sure they reported how close the democratic primary was, so they could make more money off of ad buys. It was very obvious and disgusting to watch.

 

The next level of communication is controlling the story when things don’t go your way. Another reason to have an obedient media, that will knowingly spin a news cycle, to benefit themselves and the politician they’ve hooked their wagon to. This is happening at an alarming rate. News hours on the major networks have become info-tainment. You know its bad when they create a term for it. When it comes to the main-stream media, journalism is DEAD. When was the last time you saw a deep investigative report done by the major networks? Think about it.

The final level of communication control is how world leaders now talk to each other.

Governments across the globe are so large and multi-layered, hardly any high level meeting is un-scripted.

Rarely do any two world leaders meet one on one, with just a needed translator. Summits, G-20, G-2, U.N., WTO and so on and so on and so on.

Nearly every detail is decided well in advance at many lower levels.

World leaders do not communicate with each other, directly. Huge support staffs are consulted, language is worked out for a statement, and then the other world leader consults their staff, and a response is scripted and given to a lapdog media, for consumption.

When a global government is imposed on us, it will be puppet leaders at a global level. Puppet-master staffs will be running global system of government. All par for the course, and all part of a deception. None of this is far fetched, unfortunately. The entire infrastructure for this kind of three tiered communication is in place, and for the most part, already being used.

Intellectual Property:

I struggle with this category, for many weeks now. Under a global government, every intellectual property contract would have to be re-written. No big deal, right?

I’m not so sure, I see intellectual protection being less, and government impact increasing. I toss this in here, because I never hear it discussed at a global level, and I want to start that discussion.

Military command and control:

This part of a global government infrastructure is self evident. The very second multi-national forces are put on active duty, controlled by an international body, we are doomed. Imagine a NATO style military under the control of the U.N.

I know everyone wants to believe that such a nightmare is just that, and we can wake up in a cold sweat, knowing it was just a bad dream. Facts and reality are not so rose colored or cookie cut.

Infrastructure for a global government is the easy part, it is growing everyday. Leadership to accept and manage a global government is even easier, as the mindset is there.

Consider just 22 years ago China was rural, poor and had just a sprinkling of global caliber industry. In 2010 China will surpass the United States as the world’s largest manufacturer. China, Japan and Europe will sit at the global government table, and America will be told to obey.

If you are reading this, then you are the movement.

Global Government: Part 02, Fiat Money as a false religion: The Movement, Part 020

11.15.2009

“Words from the Several States” The Movement part 020

Global Government: Part 02, Fiat Money as a false religion:

Money and government power defined as a false religion, is certainly not a new theological or political theory.

Again however, it is the time we live in. Money and government power, in the hands of a few leaders, can move or shape the entire human condition.

Lets start with fiat money, which is by design the greatest deception on all of mankind.

 

Bold statement I know, so lets break in down the way only FRN Newsletter can:

There has only been two kinds of money in all of recorded human history. Money that is backed by something of real intrinsic value, and money that is backed by nothing more than a promise.

The first kind of money is honest legal tender, that does not cause inflation, bankrupt a nation or lead a society into ruin. Inflation is the real crime imposed on all people of the working/middle classes. Inflation has taken America from a one income household of the early 1970s, to a household where two incomes does not even cut it in 2009. Real wages have gone down, factoring inflation into the math, for the last 25 years. Inflation is a direct result of money being created out of nothing, and then being financed by more money, and so forth and so on. Eventually all that worthless money works its way through the economy in the form of inflation. We call it fiat money, as described below.

 

The second form of Money, specifically defined as “Fiat Money,” is money by “government authority.” Money you are forced under penalty of law to use in commerce. It is a debt-based note, and by definition will cause inflation, bankrupt any nation and bring any society to eventual ruin. Fiat money is NOT Constitutional.

That is NOT some abstract economic theory from an obscure economics textbook. It is the simple hydraulics and laws of credit that govern all money created out of thin air, and assigned value by a government, private banking cartel or central banking system.

Lets go through the bullet points of how debt-based currency became and is the “great deception” on all of humanity:

– This first point is a recap for those long time readers of the movement. Every nation, state, empire or kingdom that has switched from a monetary system backed by precious metals or something of intrinsic value; to a debt-based system, has been destroyed. This is without exception over the last 10,000 years. Simple hydraulics. Honest money backed by gold, silver, salt, etc., will retain its value and act as a guard against inflation. Debt-based currency created out of thin air, by governments or central banks, will always cause inflation. Being that you must finance the interest payment on that worthless money by creating more worthless money. A therapist may refer to this as insanity.

– America is now the world's leading example of debt-based currency (Federal Reserve Notes), that are the root cause of inflation and bankrupting America through ever increasing debt.

– As I think about it further, Federal Reserve Notes are not even U.S. Money for public trading. Federal reserve notes are privately issued notes, by the twelve privately owned banks of the federal reserve system. The Fed just prints them up, buys all the U.S. Treasury bonds it can, to finance government debt, and then the FED dumps all it's notes onto you and me, so we can pay higher prices, and watch our pay checks buy less. I'm telling you, federal reserve notes are just a rotten deal for us regular folk.

– The deception comes into play because our leaders want you to think everything is fine, don't worry, we will take care of you and everything will be okay, as long as we retain power over all decisions. Just sit back America and let the people in power make all the decisions, because they are in power, so therefore they must want to make all the right decisions for us, right?

– Finance ministers, along with our own Treasury secretary have already met, to decide on exactly how they want to monetize oil in Euros or Yen, and start a new bench-marking system for the Dollar. The deception now takes on a global reach.

– The IMF has been given broad new powers, that even five years ago, would've been unheard of. Slowly, but aggressively, the IMF will be worked into more international dialog and dialect. As leaders from around world start “conditioning” their citizenry to accept the IMF as a global banking apparatus, not just as a lender to poor nations.

That last point about the IMF I'm sure makes most people, who are not familiar with the entity shake their heads. I would encourage everyone to study the IMF on their official website and on all the other information out there. The IMF has the proper leadership, infrastructure, gold reserves and relationships with world leaders, to be transitioned into a global currency management agency. Consolidating the main central banks of the world under its umbrella. The first tier of these central banks would be our Federal reserve European central bank, the Japanese and Chinese central banks, India, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Canada and South Korea.

We can argue the final structure, but I have never been more serious then at this point; this will happen.

It is a matter of things being already in motion. The current world leadership is of the proper mindset and political philosophy to abandon national currencies and go to a global currency. It will help the United States government hide their impending doom of hyper-inflation and allow growing powers like China, to control huge parts of the world economy. Many things start to come into play, the economics of 10% unemployment, zero job growth, etc. We will discuss that further in another part of this series, but it should be in the back of your mind.

 

Take a moment, let it sink in. All of that can make a person feel small, insignificant and depressed. It sure depresses me on occasion.

Again, as with the religious sub-text surrounding a coming global government, a global currency at some level, is something that cannot be stopped. It will come into fruition and then enough time will have passed, for a sufficient number of Americans to be properly educated and we fight back.

It is situations like this that remind me of two conversations, one held in 1995 and one held in 1787.

1995 conversation first: I was getting my materials together for a return trip to Washington, D.C., to introduce yet another proposal to Congress, for repealing the federal reserve act and returning America to a Constitutionally required gold/silver standard.

As with all my trips to DC on this issue, I try and set up meetings with Federal Reserve themselves, and offer them the chance to defend their position for creating illegal currency. Mainly, I try and get at least one FED staff member to go on record, that federal reserve notes are debt-based currency and the root cause of inflation. To his credit, former Board governor Wayne Angell answered a letter of mine years earlier, he agreed that debt-based currency is the root cause of inflation. Wayne Angell is a good man, and I dearly miss him on the world's economic scene.

So I had this mid-level FED economist on the phone and he was doing his best to impress me with his life's resume, his Ivy League schooling, and how much more he knew about the dynamics of central banking than me.

For the record, this economist was better educated and did know more about central banking (at the time) then I did. It doesn't change the truth, the fact that he was part of a central bank that was knowingly and actively creating federal reserve notes, that were debt-based and causing inflation. I know that he knew that the federal reserve violates every word of Article one, section eight, clause five of the U.S. Constitution.

Quick note here: If the federal government is doing anything, or giving authority to other entities to do anything, that steps outside the limitations of the Constitution, IT IS ILLIEGAL ! It must be stopped, by any means at our disposal, within the confines of the laws of the land.

I will remember for all of time, the closing part of our conversation, since I couldn't get him on record about fiat money causing inflation.

I asked him if he knew exactly how much information the twelve members of the FOMC and the FED staff supporting them, would have to digest, everyday, to make decisions for “managing” the world's banking system.

His answer, “Don't worry Chris, we can handle any decision that would have to be made.”

I go into more detail about this in my book “The Conversation That Almost happened” where I highlight this particular kind of arrogance inside the federal reserve.

It is not your average arrogant person , who thinks they can make all the right financial, economic, monetary decisions for the global banking system. No sir, it is a very rare and unique arrogance an individual must have. An arrogance usually reserve for the Liberal elitists amongst us all.

The twelve member FOMC is the decision making body within the federal reserve. So everyday, you have twelve people, inside the FED that decide global banking and economic policy for over 6.7 billion people on this rock.

Actually, set aside for a moment that the federal reserve is operating illegally and is un-constitutional.

Consider that just twelve people are given the authority, under the federal reserve act, to make these decisions.

That is an insane amount of power to give any group of people, no matter how smart they are.

No twelve people on this planet can possibly take in all the proper information, to make economic decisions for the planet. At a certain point, you can't even manage all the information.

Consider this, what if one of those twelve FOMC members is having a bad day? What if their spouse just handed them divorce papers? What if their spouse just died, or a kid got busted for drugs? You see my glaring point?

The very structure of the Federal reserve System and managing the global banking system, depends on the mindset of twelve people. That is again, insane.

Over the last 18 months, Congress has given the Fed even more powers, because the FED has done such a bang up job already. Insane, how many times can I say it?

The federal reserve is not only in violation of the Constitution, it is simply impractical.

Within the next ten years we will see the U.S. Dollar nearly gone, used as a subordinate trading note, nothing more. A global currency system and new currency bench marking system, will be imposed on America and the world.

Why am I so blunt with my economic analysis? Because I believe inn being honest. Not like so many so-called economists that go on CNN, NBC, etc., and give a watered down answer, while they proclaim the great virtues of the FED. I want everyone properly aware of the size of the battle ahead.

A global currency will replace the U.S. Dollar as a bench mark, it is a matter of things in motion and hydraulics. It affects all of us, thus the deception is so powerful.

At the end of the day, it doesn't even matter who is in the White House, or any other national capital. International bankers really care very little about political leaders, since most of them don't understand the international banking system. It serves their needs that leaders just want to be re-elected.

In my estimation, a false religion surrounding a global currency has already been hatched, through the secret meetings of the world's finance ministers, mentioned at the beginning of this Movement writing. Now they are not so secret about it, as another round of meetings has been planned in Scotland.

Conversation two: August 16, 1787

This “conversation” took place before any of us were born, before we had even finalized our nation's Constitution. Thankfully, A man by the name of James Madison took notes and kept a journal. Known quite properly as “Journal of the federal convention, kept by James Madison.”

In all my years of political consulting, analysis and economic theory, that journal is the first and foremost source reference you will ever need, when understanding how our Constitution came to be, and why it contains what it does.

August 16, 1787 was the day the convention delegates debated what kind of monetary system we should have.

Quick note: Before I read this portion of Madison's journal, I thought I was a hardcore fighter against fiat money and that I was very strong minded in my overall views on the need for a return to a gold/silver standard. But after I read the language and intensity of the debate amongst the delegates, I realized a was a baby compared to their stand that America should never use a fiat-money system. Pages 542 and 543 of Madison's journal opened up my eyes to just how serious the convention delegates were about keeping America forever free, from the tyranny of debt-based money. Those two pages made me re-examine everything I was doing as an activist, analyst, consultant and patriot. Those two pages kicked me in the pants like nothing else and made me become a far better and louder voice, for seeing America returned to a legal monetary system.

Though I feel Madison's journal should be required reading for every high school student, if they only read those two pages, that would be all they ever need.

The vote on that day in August, 1787, was 9 to 2, to strike the words “Emit bills of credit” from what would become clause five, section eight, article one of our Constitution. In that one vote, the United Sates of America adopted gold and silver as the two precious metals to back our currency. More specifically we adopted the proper economic thinking, that our money should be backed by something of intrinsic value.

The convention delegates had lived through inflation, during the revolutionary war, when money was backed by nothing and Rhode Island saw 1700% inflation and so on. They had lived under the Bank of England and understood what it meant to be subjects to an all powerful central banking system.

A nation that uses debt-based currency is NOT free. That is the truth and nothing in all of humanity, economics, politics will ever change that fact.

America adopted a federal reserve note as “legal tender”, after the federal reserve act was signed into law, December 23, 1913. The bankers and politicians that put it together wanted to protect large wall street banks. They saw wealth and control moving off wall street, as wealth and banks we spreading to the west and south.

By 1969 federal reserve notes started to crowd out the still in place gold standard, as the U.S. Dollar was revalued at a ratio of $42/ounce of gold, down from $35/ounce. Then in 1973 we abandoned the gold standard all together for a fluctuating interest rate/currency system. As inflation began to devalue the dollar at a growing rate, it literally changed the American household.

In 2009 Dollars adjusted for inflation, the U.S. Dollar is worth 4 cents, as compared to its value in 1913.

Man, I just looked at the length of this column, five pages and growing as fast as the national debt. You people are really dedicated readers if you've made it this far. I applaud you and I thank you, as it probably takes 8 to 14 hours work per column.

We are all adults here so lets be honest, brutally honest with each other. Any rational, sane and intelligent person knows the federal reserve cannot keep creating money out of nothing, assign it value and think that we will not bankrupt America further.

I encourage everyone to look into the history and current apparatus of the IMF. See how they are now perfectly structured to become a global banking system, where our federal reserve will be folded into their operations. Ushering in that global currency, that some will worship as a false religion and even more will accept the power thereof.

I do not muse out of context here. The deception tool, of a debt-based note is so powerful, very few world leaders can resist.

Will the world actually see a global currency and will America have that part of our constitution further violated by the federal reserve banks and IMF?

Yes, again it is a matter of hydraulics and things already in motion. Sad to say, we must play catch up yet again, on yet another very large task.

As a Citizen I am up to the task and down with the fight. I look forward to the fight, because Liberty and freedom always win, over slavery and serfdom.

If you are reading this, then you are the movement.

“Post Script Muse”

Off topic this time. I'm sure everyone has seen the House vote, 220 to 215, to force socialized health care on us. Doesn’t matter, because we hold this line and stop it dead in the Senate.

Question: The 220 members of the House that voted for Socialism, should we send them packing in 2010? Since they obviously cannot properly discharge their duties of office, under the Constitution.

“Words from the Several States” The Movement part 019


A view of the globe, as seen through current politics, religion and humanity's social fabric.


Global Government” Part 01


You mention that term and the main-stream media will automatically accuse you of having a lifetime subscription to “Black Helicopter Monthly.” I didn't even bother to Google that name, to see If such a publication exists. This new series is for people and organizations that want to think and participate on a positive realm. The main-stream media will judge this series according to their own bias and immediate need for sensationalism.

I can't change that and I'm tired of wasting my time trying.

I choose the topic of global government not as a jumping off place for a new movement writing, but as a further evolution of The Movement itself.

For the very first time in human history we have the technological capacity for a global government, therefore lousy leaders around the world will pervert such a premise.

Why? Because it allows them more power and greater historical context for a life resumes.

Most leaders cannot turn down such a prospect. It is the nature of the politician and the system they serve. Lousy leadership around the world, breeds a culture of indifference, and global government waits in the wings.


Lets start with the sub-text: Religion


For those of you new to The Movement, my sister died almost three years ago. Carla was my twin. I have the political mind but Carla was the one who studied the Bible.

I want that context to be out there, so you understand my limitations on this part of Global Government analysis.

I do believe Mathew 24 plays a significant role in our present day and the “end of days” as it were. From talking with an old friend from high school, who is very knowledgeable on the Bible, there may also be a parallel between Mathew 24, John 15 and several chapters in Revelation. John 15 and Revelation may become part of this series, or I may write them as independent columns. I have to study them first and get a lot of tutoring from several Christian friends, who understand the Bible far deeper than myself.

I sure wish my sister were still here. Carla could really describe and put into “sister speak” Mathew 24, so that I could translate it into a good political theme. Siblings just have a certain knack to make us understand, you know?


Mathew 24:


Verse 3: And as he sat upon the mount of olives, the disciples came to him privately saying, tell us, when shall these things be? And what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?


Verse 4: And Jesus answered and said unto to them, Take heed that no man deceive you.


Verse 5: For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.


Verse 11: And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.


Verse 36: But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels in Heaven, but my Father only.


My first “refined” perception is the sub-text again. Jesus explains a general state of humanity and a general darkness of the human condition. I see Jesus in his primary role here, as teacher. Educating his Disciples on what to look for, at his second coming. Knowing that none of them will actually be alive, Jesus, in Mathew 24 is teaching them on how to “teach” all of us future generations, on the signs leading up to end of days, the final battle at Armageddon and the after-math where mankind will rebuild. A world where a whole new type of leadership understands the first goal of humanity, is to serve in the glory of God, and serve each other through respect and serenity.

To that end, we have work to do.

I may spark a huge debate with that, as I know many Christians consider Jesus here on earth, in the primary role as savior of humanity.

I don't disagree with that, but only through the timing and order of how God the father wanted his son to accomplish the task.

Jesus is born into human form, allowing him to properly teach. As a teacher he tells humanity that this is how you came to our current place, this is where you are, and these are the tools and gifts I am teaching you, so that you may serve my father, God, and serve each other in his name.

Jesus at the crucification, is the part where God allows him to become savior. Only through the sacrifice of his son and the spilling of his “human blood” is Jesus able to “show” humanity that ultimate sacrifice. That God already knew his son would be crucified by humanity, in order for the spirit of a living Jesus to save all of humanity's soul.

I hope that can serve as my thumbnail impression, on how Jesus as teacher was his primary role. With his sacrifice being pre-ordained by the father.

I've called it “Lousy leadership” on many occasions, and will here. The whole world is suffering from horrible, corrupt politicians, that have made their way into the highest offices around the world. Very small people, with very narrow views on how the world should be organized under their control.

This state of general darkness will not go away in the coming decade, or the next, or maybe even the one after that.

It is, as always, a matter of hydraulics.

We have an entire generation of leaders in their 40s, 50s and 60s that are running the world's governments, banks, corporations, media and schools. We have to work through their control and the darkness they have and will bring. It is having ourselves properly educated, informed and aware, so that we may rebuild everything they are and will destroy.

The hydraulics surrounding a general darkness in global politics is in place and we must work through it. You cannot stop what is in motion, as the laws of physics do apply here.

I think that is more than enough to serve this Movement writing. All of which we have all heard before, throughout our lives. Some of us in church, Bible study, or open discussion. Some of us have heard more of it, some less. Some through structured classes and more through independent study.

For the first time the world is truly different, in so much as we have a global community infrastructure. You can effectively communicate with the entire planet. We can transfer money around the world, transfer labor, ideas, etc.

Deception and false prophets? They are everywhere, at all levels. A false prophet does not have to be someone at a very high office of Senator, or president. False prophets can exist in the petty behavior of one man trying to con 1000 people out of money or property.


There has always been deceivers however, and what separates a great deceiver of the 10th century from today?

What I gather most from Mathew 24 is that Jesus Christ will not return until a great deceiver and an anti-Christ have global reach, scope and power at their disposal.

So this takes us to a time-line. How long is the end of days and when did it start?

One requirement is that the city of Jericho must be occupied by Hebrews. This was met 42 years ago when Israel took control of the city, during the '67 war.

Was Hitler the anti-Christ? Maybe the second one, but not the final anti-Christ. Hitler didn't have global reach and power, thank God.

I do not believe Osama Bin-Laden is the final anti-Christ. He doesn't have global power, but he does have global reach. He is certainly evil enough, but has no false religion surrounding him. He has hijacked the religion of Islam for his own evil ways, but has not created, if you will, an actual false religion. All that being said I certainly still want U.S. Troops to find him and send him to his maker. For the man has brought real evil upon America, and our Christian nation has been made to suffer.

Mathew 24 does bring that home, that believers in Christ will suffer. They will suffer through ridicule, war, abandonment and deception.

It leads us to the hardest part of Mathew 24 to accept, which is we are powerless to stop the wars, deception, suffering of mankind. An anti-Christ must do battle with the second coming of Jesus Christ, so that a reign of peace will fall upon mankind.


For a great deceiver to succeed, a false religion must be formed around them. For an Anti-Christ to gain power over the world, they must also be accepted within the context of their false religion.


I see several candidates on the world stage today. Some very well known and some only known to a handful that follow politics and economics.


It may serve everyone well to open up to Mathew 24 in your Bible, or Google it on line. Understanding that chapter may give all of you needed insight as we enter the next Movement writings.

I choose my wording there precisely, because I am going to return to Mathew 24 now, and do my own fair share of further research, so that I can hopefully facilitate properly, the next part of this discussion.



If you are reading this, then you are The Movement.



Post Script Muse”

There at least six books of the Bible that we know are missing, one of them is the Gospel according to Mary. It would seem, for Christians around the world, that we are using an incomplete Bible.

Question: Whether you are Catholic or not, do you think it is the appropriate time for the Catholic church to convene a Vatican three, and consider adding these missing books to the Bible?

“Words from the Several States” The Movement, 8th inning stretch


Sorry folks, extended intermission before FRN Newsletter dives into the dark reality of a growing global government infrastructure.



note

  • *I want to start this foreign policy movement writing by saying our president is not well served by his two principle advisors, Rom Emanuele and David Axelrod. Neither man believes in the whole picture. Neither man sees the awesome need to serve the office of the president in thoughtful forward thinking context. This is dangerous and America will suffer greatly at the hands of these two advisors. In a word, they are both reckless. There I said and I'm glad I did. * *


“Marginal Value”

Those were the descriptive words the Obama administration used for Afghanistan. We will now have a lengthy look at the truth and desperation that is this western Asian nation.

A word of continuing advise to the Obama administration, no nation on this planet should be assigned the term “marginal value.” I'll bet you ten bucks the DNC came up with that term and gave it to Robert Gibbs to spew out at the press briefing. . .


Lets break it down, the way only FRN can:


  • This area of the middle east and western Asia is a region of tribes, clans, war lords and despots. Many centuries has seen this region controlled by Tribal governments, extended clan families, war lords controlling provinces or “nation states” and empires now gone. Before World War One, this region had very little use for actual borders. A leader was regaled as much for charisma as his ability to ride a horse. The romantic-historical part of my brain doesn't find all of this bad. I grow weary of powerful nations inflicting border lines and puppet governments on sovereign people, anywhere in the world. Which means all of you can expect another column soon, on Afghanistan's sister country in suffrage, Kurdistan.

  • Afghanistan is poor. I mentioned that recently. More than poor, Afghanistan has very few natural resources. The only thing it has going for it, is geography. Huge sections of this nation are rugged, mountains, and wasteland. It is their location between their collective neighbors, that gives them value. Also copper deposits, which I will touch on.

  • It all started in 1978 when then national security advisor, Zbigniew Brzezinski, went to the CIA with an idea. Brzezinski suggested funneling radical/fanatic Muslims into Afghanistan, to destabilize their government. At this point their government was a very weak Democratic republic. One wonders why a U.S. National Security Advisor would want a democratic form of government, though weak, to be destabilized. Brzezinski's idea was to give the USSR a reason to invade Afghanistan, as the Soviet Union was hoping to buffer their southern provinces and push further south for deep warm water ports. Brzezinski and the CIA were hoping the Soviets would get bogged down in a guerrilla war that they were not properly trained to fight. It worked very well.

  • Though I warn you now, be careful the monster you create. These Muslim fanatics started off just protesting the current Afghan government, but when the Islamic fundamentalists took power, they hated America as much as the Russians. It all started with the CIA setting up safe houses for the Islamic-Muslim fanatics inside Afghanistan. It should be pointed out that a very disgruntled son of a wealthy Saudi family ran one of the safe houses. A very young and already fanatic Osama Bin-Laden. I firmly believe from studying and researching Bin-Laden that it would not have mattered where he started his fanatic road to destruction, he would've become the man he is; evil, insane and deeply hateful of America. The Islamic fundamentalist government that took power in '79 would eventually become a Soviet backed communist government. The collapse of the USSR would see more radical elements take power. From 1992 to the rise of the Taliban, warlords and tribal leaders fought endlessly across impoverished Afghanistan. This constant warfare makes for a very unhappy sovereign people, would you not agree?

  • A quick side fact here, at this point Afghanistan had about 10 million land mines inside its borders. Think about that.

  • Rise of the Taliban. There was no Pastun representation in Kabul, and this gave birth to the Taliban. Over 2 million refugees growing up in camps. Coming mainly from Pakistani educated Madrases. The Taliban was only recognized by three nations around the world, as a legitimate government of Afghanistan.

  • Another quick note here on how poor this nation is. Afghanistan has minerals, including copper. China is currently putting in a bid to mine and transport copper back to China. China does share a common 46 mile border with Afghanistan, along the Walkeinn mountain region. China would bring in many sub-contractors, so much of the mining and railroad transport would fall to foreign workers, not citizens.

  • Recent stories on network news have said that America has only been doing actual fighting in Afghanistan for 1 year. Wrong! The U.S. Has been fighting or supporting fighters for over 31 years.


So over a 32 year period, the United States, USSR, China, Iran, Iraq, Pakistan, North Korea, Britain and the united nations, have been the top tier influential outside forces involved in Afghanistan politics. Deeply and intimately connected at all levels.

Assignment of value. The U.S. Certainly assigned “value” when we wanted to see the Soviets bogged down 30 years ago. We continued to finance elements of either the resistance or one of the governments for the last 30 years. Then when the Taliban gave safe haven to Al-Qaida, we did nothing. Then Al-Qaida hit us, and Afghanistan again had value to us, so we helped the Northern Alliance kick out the Taliban.

So Mr. President, we have been assigning value to this war torn nation for three solid decades.

Mark my words America, as of this moment, the President wants to make a non-decision. He is hoping the Pakistan military, involved in an offensive against the Taliban and Al-Qaida will be very successful. Allowing Pakistan to do the heavy lifting and “hard work” that he is to weak and indecisive to do. Also if the president sends in as many troops as the good general wants, then he sees our military presence in Afghanistan being very visible during the 2012 election cycle.

Yet again, here we are, another president incapable of making decisions and sticking to a policy.

But I digress.

You see Iraq has intrinsic value, because it sits on the middle east's second largest oil reserves. This matters since Saudi Arabian production costs are now at $20 per barrel of crude, Iraq is only at $6.50 per barrel.

We assigned value to Afghanistan when we wanted to bog down the Soviets in an expensive war, and now the current president wants to forget the ravaged and raped nation that we helped to create.

The only southern and eastern border Afghanistan has, is on a map. Routinely, Taliban and Al-Qaida elements move across the border, hitting targets at a whim.

President Obama wants to concentrate forces on the populous cities.

Thats a good idea, but it doesn't matter if the nation doesn't have secure borders.


Get ready I'm going to use the most hated word in all of politics, the one word that scares politicians the most. The “L” word, LEADERSHIP.

I would argue, with 31 years of records, data and information to back up my argument, that our overall policy towards Afghanistan is usury and failed. Usury on a desperate scaled, and failed beyond recognition of any policy cohesion.

We are not alone, the Soviets raped the country and left it for dead, as well as other nations who tried to influence the Afghan political structure.

This is one of those moments where a real leader steps forward and says “no more.” Then decides to right any wrongs and do it with humility and straight forward action.

It is hard work for a president, but it is presidential work alone.

Is former President George W. Bush partially to blame, definitely. Advisors gave him recommendations which sat on his desk for eight months before the November 2008 elections.

Why? The same old reason, he didn't want to make a military decision that would hurt Domestic political policy and the Republican party's chance to keep the White House. Thats my theory, and President Clinton made the same type of decision by not going after Al-Qaida eleven months before the November 2000 elections. What a lack of leadership, it makes me sick.

Allowing Al-Qaida and Taliban forces and fanatics a foothold in the Afghanistan and Pakistan border region, is a clear and present danger to the security of the United States. I choose my words precisely here.

I don't care if troop build-up spills over into daily headlines during the 2010 and 2012 election cycles. I just don't care how the media chooses to spin it or not spin it.

I don't care.

Time for leadership Mr. President, the indecisions of your predecessors DOES NOT MATTER, it is now your responsibility. Secure that border and eliminate Afghanistan as a host country for Al-Qaida and the Taliban. It is proper, practical and necessary foreign policy.

I was going to end the movement writing at this point, but it is Sunday night and I rarely write on Sunday nights.

I fear being mis-understood at this critical point of my foreign policy thinking. I don't think at all, that the Afghan borders need to be defined and secured because America has somehow “abused” the nation over the last 31 years. I'll leave that level of thinking and criticism to college professors. You see, abusive, is a very heavy descriptive word. As the President's press secretary said, Afghanistan only has marginal value.

I am currently starting the beginning work on outlining a new political book, which I am loosely calling “Brutal Honesty.” To be brutally honest here, all nations use and abuse other nations through foreign policy. Other nations also benefit greatly by “allowing” themselves to be abused for a certain period. This may or may not be the case with the United States and Afghanistan, it really is not my place here, or my goal, to say.

We are in a period here in modern human history, where we have general lousy leadership and lack of leadership throughout all the world. The world has mostly self-centered, petty and weak leaders.

I think we need to accept that is where we are, before we can plot a course for changing it. We also need to accept that while we are changing it, the world will suffer even greater set backs. This being due to the fact that all the bad policies and “non-decisions” of lousy leaders will still be filtering across the globe.

This is my greater point and honest “political hope” for President Obama, that he will see the practical clear and present danger of a non-defined and porous Afghan border. See the need to protect America, by securing that border with Pakistan.

It could be the one shining foreign policy star of his Administration. It could easily take the next three years and all his ground work could see the credit given to the president after him. A responsible president is fine with this and does not seek credit for administrating the office in a way that bears fruit after his tenure.

But I am a practical political analyst and realistic economist.

I know President Obama will follow in the foot steps of five presidents before him and make a 80% non-decision on Afghanistan.

Then the world will suffer even more general darkness from yet another lousy leader only interested in padding his life's resume.

If that brutal honesty is more than some can digest, then remember it is Sunday night and I generally don't lay down additional thought at this time.

I am also listening to music right now, which I never do when framing a column in first draft.

For those that it may be of matter, I'm listening to “Passion” by Peter Gabriel, which would become the soundtrack for Martin Scorsese's movie “The Last Temptation of Christ.” A novel by a Russian author, adapted by a Catholic film director. Sort of complicated movie and soundtrack making. Though I feel after 20 years of listening to it, that the music has a real bounty and “spiritual honesty” to it.

Again, for those that care, that is the sub-text of where my thoughts are.


Foreign policy is at the very least hard work. Strong leadership is a needful premise.

Post Script Muse”

We're going to try something here. I made a new friend this week and she recommended posing a question, for the American readership. So this is what I'm going to do, offer up a weekly question, either on topic or whatever flows from my brain.

If you feel like responding please do. If you want your response published on the FRN website, please indicate as such.

So lets jazz it up: What should be the State department's responsibilities to the Kabul government, while NATO and U.S. Troops secure the countryside?

“Words from the Several States”


A “Movement” 7th inning stretch


Come on, Streeeeetch! ! ! There you go, get all that good oxygen into the lungs, clear the head. Anyone need a monster or red bull?


OH! Happy Anniversary to the FRN Newsletter weekly column. It has now been four years that this weekly economic/political muse has been picked up by several national media outlets, as well as local newspapers and regional political parties. A very special thanks to the Raiders news Network for giving us the Internet platform and forum that serves us so well. Finally a special thank you to the people at American Patriot Friends Network (www.apfn.org). This network does the heavy lifting of providing information on the Internet that rarely hits the main-stream media. FRN Newsletter is thankful every time they pick up our column.


The Movement is going to explore a very realistic yet dark aspect of the world, in a new series of columns; as we look at the growing infrastructure surrounding a coming global government. Not conspiracy theory, but hard information, based on the Bible, economics, current political practice and evolving social fabric. Explore the topic from hopefully a new and three dimensional perspective.


For now I want to transition into that series by discussing what the main-stream media hates the most, American Greatness.


To be an American, is to have a singular place in all of human history. We are free, we have freedom based on the idea that government serves the people. Only in the United States of America has this been true. Human Rights and natural rights flow from God, not government.

I sing the praises of our bounty and the glory of our history, because we are at a moment in history, when this chorus must ring loud and proud.

33 years now, I've watched three consecutive generations tear this nation down. Why?


“We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect union . . . .”


Those words, let them absorb into your skin like fresh sunlight. Let them fill your mind as if they were gentle prose from God himself.

Let the idea of individual liberty enter your soul as you fully consume the reality that we are Americans.

I strongly believe it is the first duty of every elected official in this nation, to constantly remind other officials around the world, that America is exceptional. Not from a point of arrogance, from a point of fact.

America is a free nation, with a servant government. All other nations were governments with a nation to rule.

When you think about how special and blessed we are, as a people, inside that context; you cannot help but be filled with pride.

In America when:

  • something is broken, we fix it.

  • Problems arise, we solve them.

  • Machines wear out, we invent better ones.

  • A vision for a new goal appears, we grab it.

  • Injustice occurs, we push forward and find justice for all.


In this nation your rights flow from an all loving God, from the divine power that governs and created the universe. In America, at the very moment of conception, you are protected as a living human being. In this country, you do not need a government to define who you are. You are defined by the individual role you choose to play in society. You have control over your own destiny.

This is the burning patriotism inside of me, as it is in the huge majority of Americans. Though to hear the main-stream media and our current federal officials tell it, we are all angry at America.

This dynamic will change, as the media and our officials start to learn the truth about America, once again, from a truly organic political movement and point of view.

As is spelled out so nicely in the “growing” Tea Party Movement, patriotism has never left America. It just isn't a sexy story for the headline news cycle.

Think about that, patriotic Tea Party movements are not considered a worthy news item on CNN, MSNBC, CBS, etc.

We enter a period of human history where so many expect and think the government is the only way to solve problems.

Wrong !


The problem is that government has grown so large, at the very same time that our nation grew so wealthy, at the very same time that our education system dropped in quality. All of this happened as the quality of elected leaders slid down into an Abyss.

In all, a perfect storm for so many to be seduced by Socialism and the tyranny of government that ALWAYS follows Socialism.

TIME magazine even put on their cover “We are all Socialists now.” Thankfully they print in a free nation, where such lies can be put out there.

I see dark times ahead for our world, as we work through this current crop of lousy leaders, and I see America taking the hits for such a continued perfect storm of general apathy.

Then I see a rising Phoenix from those ashes.

Greatness, and belief in greatness; that will save the world, and American liberty will again forge a new path, for everyone to follow. America leads the world in Freedom, always has, always will. We are a transforming people and culture.

I can go anywhere in America, round up a group of engineers, toss them a problem, and they will solve it.

In America, I can go anywhere, round up a group of mechanics, toss them a broken engine and they will fix it.

In America, I can go anywhere, round up a group of people and with Hammers, saws and one T-square, teach them to build a house.


That, is American exceptionalism.


Anywhere else in the world, people turn to their master, the government and cry out “solve this.” Most of the time that government will shout back, “No way” “suffer with your lot in life.”


I will not, as a patriot, allow the current apathy to consume anymore of my nation. I will do my small part, as a responsible citizen, to contain and stop the root cause of that apathy.


Join me, on this next evolution of The Movement, As America enters a new era of greatness, as we plot a new course, for humanity to realize the meaning of genuine liberty and the essence of freedom.



If you are reading this, then you are The Movement.
