DNA is a biochemical analogue of a memory chip with programming. mRNA, RNA, is like the hardware that interprets the machine-language instructions for the epigenetic environment and the cellular machinery.

The DNA itself is a recording of a written coded language. Computers today store all information in bits, charges of “zero” and “one” in magnetic or optic media. A gene is stored in a DNA molecule in a medium of the arrangement of nucleotides linked in a chain. The A, C, T, G nucleotides are the ONLY letters in the completely digitized SYMBOLIC language to store the data.

The clincher for me is that the language in the DNA has NOTHING to do with the eventual effect it has in the cell. Run source code through the CPU and the machine does nothing, or freezes, or stops. Source code has to be translated. So does DNA.

It’s mind-boggling. A computer has to have a programmer. DNA indeed has one:

Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them.(Psalm 139:16)

That verse actually exposes the modern counterfeit translations. One guy once asked me why I changed the words in my quote of the verse to make it “look like” DNA. I didn’t. The other modern versions DO change the words to make it NOT look like DNA.

Darwinian evolution is nothing new though. It’s a very old idea that Satan used Darwin to cloak in modern lingo:

Jeremiah 2:27 Saying to a stock, Thou art my father; and to a stone, Thou hast brought me forth: for they have turned their back unto me, and not their face: but in the time of their trouble they will say, Arise, and save us.

That verse in Jeremiah 2, part of the introduction of the book of prophecies of the judgment coming to Israel for such beliefs, actually shows that (1) the beliefs, that life “came forth” from rocks that were eroded and scorched and melted into the primeval ooze, are NOT a “discovery” of the 18th and 19th centuries, but were there way back in the effort to avoid God searing their conscience, and (2) the belief that humans are evolved from lesser animals like “stock”, is also an ancient myth.

They modern academic ruling class censors this history, along with the history of unions, the Roosevelt statist policies that made the Great Depression much worse and longer than it had to be, the criminal actions of the Federal Reserve and its traitorous passage in 1913 in the US Congress.

They hide the fact that Karl Marx included a “Graduated” income tax in his Communist Manifesto platform, plus a “central bank” in every nation of the world. This is the anti-capitalist? Sneaking in a policy of private-sector Wall Street types and international banksters to control the world’s currency, interest rates, mortgages, and economies?

But did Mao Tse-Tung push economics or even Communist Party doctrines into the first things he pushed into his schools after taking over? Nah, he pushed evolution as the first priority in education in China.

Jesus believed in the six-day Creation, too:

Matthew 19:4 And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female,

So did Paul:

1 Corinthians 15:45 And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.

Romney and Obama: Is there ANY difference?

November 4, 2012

In the article linked below, Chuck Baldwin included an interesting (very long) list of positions that both Romney and Obama hold in common:

 

http://chuckbaldwinlive.com/home/archives/5229

 

But in another interesting twist, Chuck exposes the fact that a great many “conservative” organizations have received big money from “a slew of PACS and foundations that funneled thousands of dollars” that Romney created, and apparently they put on their own muzzles and made him out to be a “conservative”, as if he had repented of his strong pro-abortion policies and push for ever more and bigger government as governor in Massachusetts, increasing the control of government officials over our lives.

 

Here is just one paragraph with much of list but not all, with a comment below about one or two of them, kind of disclaimers…

 

As I have noted in previous columns, the differences between Mitt Romney and Barack Obama are miniscule on virtually every salient issue. They both supported TARP; they both supported Obama’s economic stimulus package; they both supported so-called assault weapons bans and other gun control measures; Obama has an “F” rating from Gun Owners of America, while Romney has a “D-” rating from GOA; neither man supports a balanced budget; neither man opposes foreign aid; they both supported the bailout of the auto industry; they both have a track record of being big spenders; they both fully support the Federal Reserve; they both oppose a full audit of the Fed; they are both supporters of universal health care; both men are showered with campaign contributions from Wall Street; neither of them wants to eliminate the IRS or the direct income tax; both men are on record as saying the TSA is doing a “great job”; they both supported the NDAA, including the indefinite detention of American citizens without due process of law; they both supported the renewal of the Patriot Act; they both believe that the President has “executive power” to assassinate and kill; both support the “free trade” agenda of the global elite; they are both soft on illegal immigration; they both support NAFTA and CAFTA; they both have a history of appointing liberal judges; they both believe the President has the authority to take the nation to war without the approval of Congress; and neither of them has any qualms about running up more public debt to the already gargantuan debt of 16 trillion dollars.

 

I’m going to parse out that list for effect in bullet form to make them more visible:

 

They both supported TARP;

 

they both supported Obama’s economic stimulus package;

 

they both supported so-called assault weapons bans and other gun control measures;

 

Obama has an “F” rating from Gun Owners of America, while Romney has a “D-” rating from GOA;

 

neither man supports a balanced budget;

 

neither man opposes foreign aid;

 

they both supported the bailout of the auto industry;

 

they both have a track record of being big spenders;

 

they both fully support the Federal Reserve;

 

they both oppose a full audit of the Fed;

 

they are both supporters of universal health care;

 

both men are showered with campaign contributions from Wall Street;

 

neither of them wants to eliminate the IRS or the direct income tax;

 

both men are on record as saying the TSA is doing a “great job”;

 

they both supported the NDAA, including the indefinite detention of American citizens without due process of law;

 

they both supported the renewal of the Patriot Act;

 

they both believe that the President has “executive power” to assassinate and kill;

 

both support the “free trade” agenda of the global elite;

 

they are both soft on illegal immigration;

 

they both support NAFTA and CAFTA;

 

they both have a history of appointing liberal judges;

 

they both believe the President has the authority to take the nation to war without the approval of Congress;

 

and neither of them has any qualms about running up more public debt to the already gargantuan debt of 16 trillion dollars.

 

[Editor's note: I do support free trade, but not the "free trade agenda" of "the global elite", because their "free trade agenda" has nothing to do with "free trade", but it does relate to very un-free control.]

There are more things they hold in common, and Chuck Baldwin does mention some of them, like the fact that they both support the current legal enforcement of the both ridiculous and dangerous (for babies) scientific view that a baby in the womb is part of a woman’s own body. Obama has broken many promises and told many lies, but then Romney says he’s pro-life, giving talking heads a chance to say they’re glad he changed his position, but he says he’ll do nothing about Roe v Wade, and he doesn’t talk about this, and he does not speak repentant about his economy-damaging effects of his policies as governor in Massachusetts.

 

Gun Owners of America

Just to say that a forced tax on every Massachusetts resident that on the national scale Americans marched against by the millions and even all the left-leaning polls said were against by 70 percent, meaning probably 85 percent, is a “good solution” for anybody is to be clueless and shows he is NEITHER “conservative” and certainly not libertarian.

 

“Let’s not also forget that Romney’s advisors actually met with Obama’s advisors on a dozen occasions to assist them with designing ObamaCare! It’s no surprise that Romney is refusing to call ObamaCare a tax, even though it’s the largest middle class tax hike in American history. The reason for this is because, while governor, his RomneyCare plan–the model for ObamaCare–was attacked as a tax and he argued it wasn’t.

The reason for this is because, while governor, his RomneyCare plan–the model for ObamaCare–was attacked as a tax and he argued it wasn’t.

 

Romney projects an air of knowing much more about his topics than Obama, but he is still a top-down guy that wants to impose his own solutions on everybody that doesn’t want them. And so Romney will know what he is saying when he reads a teleprompter.

 

I pretty much agree with Mr. Baldwin that Romney will win this election, but unfortunately his administration will look like the Bush years, and meantime the powers that be in the USA continue to push us fast toward a dollar crash.

 

 

 

 

90% bracket

September 8, 2012

Abusive taxation policies cheat the poor and mostly the middle class. Obama‘s own billionaire and Wall Street sponsors (how do you think he out-raised McCain in 2008?) like George Soros and the former CEO of Progressive Insurance, billionaire Peter Lewis, they help Congress write the tax laws together with their supposed “enemies”, other billionaires and Wall Street banksters, and their Wall Street-hatched buddies running the Federal Reserve print them all the money they need.

And the inflation that devalues the dollar for these fat cats means the housewife gets 10% of her grocery bill robbed right out of her hands just by their printing these “Federal Reserve Notes”.

And you thought they got rich by just cheating on taxes??!

Why are neither Romney NOR Obama talking about the Fed?

And consider. Does your next door neighbor have more than you? The most common excuse heard from robbers who burglar the mansions is, “They can afford it”. Even in a recent movie, the mastermind told the doubter the bank wasn’t going to lose anything, because the “FDIC insures it” all. (Since about a generation agone already, Memo to screenwriter: they insure one individual account per user up to only a hundred grand)

If you vote for taxes for you at 10% (or give me EIC$ back), and vote for taxes on a quarter-millionaire of 40%, what is fair about that? Said another way, if you tax a millionaire just because he’s a millionaire, and you’re not, explain to us how this is not “taxation without representation”.

Questions about free trade, capitalism, alternative energy

September 3, 2012
English: Number of corporations that control n...

English: Number of corporations that control nearly all U.S. media (through time) (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

Q: As to truly free trade: Are you OK with government and corporations working together freely to deny entry to competitors?
A. “Government and corporations working together freely to deny entry to competitors” is called “crony capitalism“. Almost all of the worst abuses perpetrated by the people who run big corporations are done by “rent seeking” practices, meaning special favors for specific groups or corporations.

Like the legislation that creates regulatory agencies that decide what products corporations can make, or sell, and make decisions specific to specific entities. Legislators or regulators that decide what groups get the breaks.

Q: Are you OK with the Oil Companies buying up the alternative fuel market and shutting it down?
A: Oil companies haven’t “bought up” the “alternative fuel market” and shut it down. Solar and wind simply have not reached the economic viability of oil.

Some of them have abused the patent system and sat on patents but almost all corporate abuses have occurred because the government has interfered in markets or incentivized rent-seeking. The Big Three were able to shut down the Tuckermobile, for example, ONLY because compliant corrupt cronies in GOVERNMENT were glad to abuse their power.

As to the “alternative fuel market”, enviro-fanatics are doing what they’re told to stop natural gas exploitation. Idiot pop science like the “fracking” protests to cover the crony capitalist rent-seeking roots of the enviro-wacko “movement” –bought and paid for by billionaires’ tax-free “foundations”– those are the blood-sucking vampires draining the life out of the economy along with all the other rent-seeking parasites, corporate and collective.

HERE WE EXPOSE THE ENVIRO-BOSSES: Why aren’t all these activists, so concerned as they say they are with carbon, why aren’t they yelling for research into the REAL new alternative energy, the ULTIMATE in CLEAN energy: http://www.youtube.com/user/NewEnergyFoundation
http://www.infinite-energy.com/whoarewe/whoarewe.html

Hey! The corporation is just another collective, after all. Union bosses compete with corporate execs on salary levels, dontcha know. The Bolshevik bosses are not luxury slouches you know. The crown king of North Korea has his own fleet of sports cars. (Who said absolute monarchies are history?) The caudillo dictator of Venezuela has his fleet of sports cars and SUV‘s too….

The only “shutting down” of any energy industry going on is government interference in the market.

Q: Are you OK with speculators cornering markets and driving up prices?
A: Do you complain when speculators drive DOWN prices? Speculators STABILIZE prices, they take the risks of price fluctuation.

Point your eyes to the Federal Reserve and put your ear to the wall and listen to the guys who are the ones who in the real world “drive up prices”. It’s called inflation, almost a euphemism now for currency devaluation. That’s how the richest and dirtiest of the Wall Street bankers subset ROB your pocket by driving up prices on everything in general.

The desk jockeys in D.C. that decide how to calculate the CPI (consumer price index) to cover up how bad inflation is, those guys are complicit, along with the SS administration that lets inflation get ahead of seniors checks.

Q: Are you OK with banks driving up rates and fees so that your credit cards, checking accounts, and mortgages have onerous fine print and exorbitant rates and fees?
A: Government intervention makes it all worse, and fiat government-dictated currency monopolies make the worst practices possible. The U.S. has a crony-capitalist (crony-banking) bank-owned and bank-operated currency monopoly, guaranteed by a paid cronies in Congress and the compliant federal courts.

Are you in favor of the current private-banking monopoly over your currency?

July 29, 2012

I just clipped it from a comment somewhere now lost in surfing memory.

But Mike’s comment has a ton of truth to it.

I warned Mike and everybody else who (I presume) was posting in favor of Obama that they would get the same of all the things they hated with Bush, and likely more, including the corporatocracy elements.

Proven true now of course. Among those points, now history:

#1.Obama not only has kept the worst core elements of the Patriot Act, his administration has expanded them. O’s Injustice Department has expanded Bush’s self-written search warrants to mean they are outside the jurisdiction of any courts, nobody can question them, nobody can sue against them.

#2. Habeus corpus continues violated.

#3. Not only did he continue both wars that Bush started to this day, he fought another one in Libya, supporting the genocide there against the town of 10,000 black folks, he supported surrogates in others, and they are providing material support to another Muslim Brotherhood-al Qaeda takeover.

#4. Not only did he continue the Bush practice of waging war without a proper constitutional Declaration of War in Congress, he proceeded to tell Congress through subordinates that he did not even have the obligation to report to Congress a new war. (A war by any other name).

Note for the gullible: Pearl Harbor was, is still today in fact, properly considered so, an act of war, like U.S. bombings in Libya and in Serbia.

So he has continued the Bush wars and added a couple of his own. MEMO: 18,000 troops will stay in Iraq and that is not a withdrawal, and the embassy is the biggest in the world ever.

#5. He continued the practice of keeping the number of warrantless searches secret.

#6. Even before he was president, he pushed for TARP, which we find out poured trillions into private banks and overseas private banks and European banks, in a blatantly unconstitutional interference in the judicial branches, and not only that, refusing to prosecute an unknown number of actors in Wall Street that should have gone to prison in the first days of the Obama administration.

Instead, the administration brought in Wall Street associates of these criminals, and chief Wall Street criminal protector Geithner brought into the Cabinet itself (who was head of the New York branch of the Fed at the time and enabler of bonuses at AIG).

#7. He continued the Bush-era practice of hiring lobbyists into the administration, only more of it.

#8. He not only continued the practice of protecting the exploding federal debt burden, he outdid the Bush era practice by orders of magnitude. NOBODY “inherits” a deficit, though. A deficit is when you spend more money THIS year than your revenues THIS same year, so a deficit has NOTHING to do with last year.

#9. He has continued the Bush era practice of doing everything possible to stop any real fix to the oncoming debt tsunami and dollar crash.

#10. He made the executive presidency even more renegade by not only continued the presumed and denied practice by previous presidents of ordering killings, surrogates have now bragged about him deciding every day who will be killed, without arrest, warrant, habeus corpus, or a trial, including American citizens.

#11. O’s administration has expanded on the list of official bad guys for police and neighbors to suspect of terrorism, to add returning veterans, Ron Paul supporters, Constitution Party supporters, conspiracy theorists, and a few jihadist groups to make it look fair.

This year it leaked that they have added “liberty lovers” to this official “unofficial” enemies list.

#12. Bush doubled the size of Medicare with the pharmacy benefits, and Obama continued the practice of taking over this huge section of the private economy with the Unaffordable Health Care Act, and huge Medicaid expansion, but added a penalty/tax to compel participation for those who engage in breaking the law by doing absolutely nothing.

And got an unappealable judicial infinite taxation permit as a side benefit of lawsuits protesting this. (Maybe they should have gambled instead on overturning the FDR commerce clause over-reach but they didn’t)

#13. Obama continued the Bush precedent of appointing relatively unknown friends from the administration, Bush with Harriet Myers, Obama with not one but two: Sotomayor and Elena Kagan.

#14. Obama has endorsed the ACTA treaty, which is another the gift for Big Corporate to add to the change in patent law. You invented it first does not count anymore, the patent goes to the company that files first. Now we find that the US is negotiating another treaty that will hurt individuals at the expense of more restrictions, the TPP (Trans-Pacific Partnership).

#15. Obama has continued the Bush practice of acting like the increasing persecution of Christians around the world (as compared to other religions) does not exist, including the decimation and physical assaults on Christians in Iraq and Afghanistan where presumably it would have influence, and in Libya where the presidential regime allied with the mass murderers of Christian blacks.

#16. Obama continued the interventionist policies of Bush in Latin America after promising a new era in relations, although he did modify the policy by actively trying to a slight change, to bully the nations into accepting Communist dictators like Manuel Zelaya in Honduras.

#17. THE DIFFERENCE from Bush. The one visible difference (you have to look under the covers to see it) is the Cloward-Piven difference. That idea is to demand that the government fill ALL its promises and pay everybody their due and make them spend enough to bankrupt it.

Discover the Networks says it better. Remember that Cloward and Piven wanted a full-blown socialist society on the Marxist model, overtly and explicitly:

The Cloward-Piven Strategy
By Richard Poe
DiscoverTheNetworks.org
2005

First proposed in 1966 and named after Columbia University sociologists Richard Andrew Cloward and Frances Fox Piven, the “Cloward-Piven Strategy� seeks to hasten the fall of capitalism by overloading the government bureaucracy with a flood of impossible demands, thus pushing society into crisis and economic collapse.

Inspired by the August 1965 riots in the black district of Watts in Los Angeles (which erupted after police had used batons to subdue an African American man suspected of drunk driving), Cloward and Piven published an article titled “The Weight of the Poor: A Strategy to End Poverty” in the May 2, 1966 issue of The Nation. Following its publication, The Nation sold an unprecedented 30,000 reprints. Activists were abuzz over the so-called “crisis strategy” or “Cloward-Piven Strategy,” as it came to be called. Many were eager to put it into effect.

…read more here…

The strategy is to make the “enemy” live up to their own rules, except I would say they only want those rules enforced in their favor and never against them. It’s also a “Trojan Horse” movement strategy, meaning activist groups that pretend to help the poor but it’s only meant to make their lot worse and lead to a breakdown in the whole system and bring down the government.

IRS and the Fourth Amendment

July 21, 2012

The abuse by not just the IRS, but by all the government agencies spying on all the rest of us is an outrageous abuse of power, used by administrations of both parties for many, many decades.

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/03/11/AR2008031100380.html

Maybe there’s a reason that the media under Clinton, Bush, Obama, has been mum about the worst abuses. Never mind the incidents where it’s murky who did what and people who have been psyched into the “partisan” mind-set can defend either side, like with the CIA agent supposedly getting “outed”.

But the Washington Post let show some things in one article about Spitzer, but it did not get picked up by the media. (Maybe they saw the implications for themselves?)

The FBI placed a surveillance team on Spitzer at the Mayflower Hotel for the first time on Jan. 26, after concluding from a wiretapped conversation that he might try to meet with a prostitute when he traveled to Washington to attend a black-tie dinner, the source said Tuesday.

Okay, that was the first time for a surveillance team, but did they have a warrant? Further down in the article:

The January stakeout at the Mayflower came roughly two weeks after a federal judge authorized investigators to intercept the escort service’s telephone calls and text messages.

A team of agents from New York and Washington was hurriedly dispatched to the hotel after an escort service employee was heard on a wiretap calling the front desk to say that flowers were being sent to Spitzer and wanting to confirm that he would be there, said a source knowledgeable about the investigation who requested anonymity in order to speak freely.

So how and why did they get the judge to order the wiretap?

In this case, the bank’s report was triggered by Spitzer’s attempt to structure a $10,000 cash transaction into three parts, according to a senior law enforcement official familiar with the evidence. When investigators looked more closely at the transactions, they learned that the recipients were apparent shell companies associated with the Emperors Club.

As of a long time ago it’s not just the Mob that knows banks are required by law to report to FinCEN any transactions of $10,000 or more, so the “authorities” got a law passed criminalizing “structuring”. But the law does much more than just that, it requires banks to report anything that might look like “structuring”. If you withdraw just under that much, or make three withdrawals that add up to a little more than that, the bank might want to avoid its own trouble with the authorities by reporting you.

Plus maybe there’s more to this than was even in that Washington Post article, because Governor Spitzer was saying he was going to investigate Wall Street for the massive crimes and frauds perpetrated in the financial meltdown that resulted in TARP.

Did somebody talk to North Fork Bank? Was somebody at North Fork Bank implicated? Was this the very first time that Spitzer had done this? I think not because it was revealed during this time that he had been a regular client of the escort service that provided the girl for the trip to Washington. So why then?

Investigators have identified at least eight instances in which Spitzer used the Emperors Club over the past several years, this official said, adding that they are still examining records to determine the scope of his activity.

But “structuring” isn’t the only thing:

Funny, Spitzer made use of such abusive laws when he was a prosecutor, so it’s payback. But payback is still pending for the financial crimes committed against the rest of us.

FBI nabs five mastermind geniuses after teaching them how to blow up a bridge in Cleveland

May 6, 2012

FBI nabs five mastermind geniuses after teaching them how to blow up a bridge in Cleveland:
http://www.naturalnews.com/035757_FBI_terror_plots_false_flag.html

Now, as you can probably tell from all the fake terror plots the FBI has dreamed up recently, this is an agency desperate to engineer job security. Since the agency can’t find any REAL terror plots in America, they routinely resort to planning and carrying out their own terror plots against America while recruiting drugged-up morons to take the blame.

These five individuals in Cleveland look like they could have been recruited by the FBI with little more than five crack pipes. Or five hits of meth, perhaps. In no way are these the “criminal masterminds” they’re being made out to be by most of the mainstream media and the FBI itself.

Speaking of the MSM, more and more newspapers across the USA are waking up to the FBI’s fake terror plot routine. Believe it or not, even the New York Times recently ran a feature story questioning the FBI’s role in planning, providing weapons and even helping carry out all these fake plots.

As the NYT reports: (http://www.nytimes.com/2012/04/29/opinion/sunday/terrorist-plots-help…)

Learn more: http://www.naturalnews.com/035757_FBI_terror_plots_false_flag.html#ixzz1u6UjFI3E

Yessir, the FBI is getting really really good at engineering terror plots, and then stopping them.

The ATF could learn some tricks from them, instead of heading fast and furiously into disaster. In trying to get some ground for taking guns from good guys, they tried to prove that bad guys were getting them from this side of the border, so they sold some from this side of the border to the bad guys on that side of the border, meaning… here you go…

Not only is the ATF is the most notorious gun smuggler for bad guys…

But the FBI is the most notorious terror plotting organization in the United States,

With all those trillions going to Wall Street banks and European central banks, we could call the Fed and the Treasury the world’s biggest money launderers…

CBS Caught Lying About Results of Colorado Caucus!

April 23, 2012

Mat Larson exposes another mainstream media lie about Ron Paul:
http://libertyvlogger.com/mainstream-media/ron-paul-cbs-caught-lying-about-results-of-colorado-caucus/

Romney gets to look increasingly like a throwaway candidate. He’s avoiding talking about his Massachusetts health care law, which requires individuals to purchase health insurance, because Americans hate hate hate the Obama nationalization of the medical industry and its co-ownership with Big Pharma and the semi-socialist AMA (which gets 70% of its funding from the federal government). They hate it at the rate of 70% to this day.

But even if he is a throwaway, Obama’s sponsors will not find much difference. Romney won’t throw out the Unaffordable Health Care Act, he’ll keep it and pretend to change something big by changing something meaningless. Romney will continue the endless Bush-Obama wars. Romney would continue to throw goodies to his Wall Street sponsors while criticizing them, just like Obama has done. Romney will continue the attacks on our freedoms, expanding on the most abominable and unconstitutional parts of the Patriot Act, NDAA, ACTA, police state power for federal agents to write their own secret warrants to search anywhere they feel like it, and to detain anybody the president deems a threat (where is that automatic signature machine?).

Make no mistake: Romney would also continue whatever efforts they’re doing under the radar to form a national civil federal police force akin to Hitler’s Brownshirts.

So Romney will avoid it, and Obama campaign will avoid it, but if -IF- Romney gets the nomination –and despite the spin, it is NOT settled yet– you can bet it will be a debate question and Romney will get plastered on it! “It was your idea, Romney!” And when they ask Romney what he’d do different, his answer will show his hem haw position straddles both sides of the fence and expose him as the same thing.

Romney’s corporate raids and offshore holdings will also kill him.

Neither of them can criticize their backers, both of them have Goldman Sachs and Wall Street in the list of their topmost supporters. Obama formed a PAC to answer the Republicans he said, but the media is covering by telling us Obama’s not getting the money the Republicans are. But what they don’t tell you is that Obama is going to get trillions worth of campaign donations “in kind”, in their own media reports.

But ever more people are waking up. You meet ex-Romney supporters, ex-Santorum supporters, ex-Gingrich supporters, ex-Obama supporters, but an ex-Ron Paul supporter is more rare than skin on a hen’s teeth!

Look at this:

http://www.nytimes.com/2012/03/28/us/massachusetts-health-insurance-mandate-stirs-dissent.html?pagewanted=all

Roughly 48,000 people in the state were subject to penalties for not having coverage in 2009, the latest year for which figures are available, down from 67,000 in 2007. The maximum penalties range from $228 to $1,212 a year, depending largely on income. (Anyone with an annual income of less than 150% of the federal poverty line pays no penalty.) The penalties are paid on state tax returns.

Guess who isn’t getting Big Bank donations?

GROWING EVER BIGGER! Ron Paul’s campaign making mincemeat out of media!

April 13, 2012

Witness the Power of an Idea: Ron Paul Massive Rallies 2012 – YouTube:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hgsg7a-Ok8Q&feature=related

While Fox News was asking “Where’s Ron Paul”, as if they didn’t know, he was speaking to a crowd of 6,200 at UCLA, and after that spoke to a similarly sized crowd at Berkeley campus!

Watch that video and contrast it with what you’ve been seeing on broadcast outlets, or in your papers (if you still read those).

It seems like a few weeks ago, despite the reality they were seeing at Ron Paul rallies, and the fact that this phenomenon, this blowback against the empire, this grassroots movement, is making news, the news story of the century, somehow the order went out to slam down a complete blacklist curtain on his campaign.

The blackout is so blatant and so shameless it is difficult to wrap your head around if you haven’t been watching the trends over decades, if you have even the smallest bit of trust in the “establishment media”.

Forget Joe McCarthy, somebody (or somebodies) is doing better than him. He got blowback from the media.

So if you thought you were getting fair and balanced from Fox News or from CNN, do another double take on that video. Remember, the ownership of all those broadcast and cable news networks are owned by the same biggest corporations that rely on Wall Street for their financing and advertising dollars, and it’s starting to look like their marching orders, too…

Obama accuses Republicans of ‘madness’ – TwinCities.com:
http://www.twincities.com/national/ci_20294841/obama-accuses-republicans-madness?source=rss

PORTLAND, Maine – President Barack Obama accused Republicans of clinging to economic policies that preceded the Great Depression and the more recent economic downturn, saying his rivals are showing signs of “madness.”

Raising campaign cash in Maine on Friday, March 30, Obama said Republicans want to return to economic policies that would let Wall Street play by its own set of rules and allow insurance companies to roll back health coverage.

“We won’t win the race for new jobs and new businesses and middle-class security if we cling to this same old, worn-out, tired ‘You’re on your own’ economics that the other side is peddling,” Obama said.

“It was tried in the decades before the Great Depression. It didn’t work then. It was tried in the last decade. It didn’t work,” he said. “You know, the idea you would keep on doing the same thing over and over again, even though it’s been proven not to work. That’s a sign of madness.”

Tell you what, financial market manipulations by the Federal Reserve and intervention in the free markets immediately preceded the Great Depression.

Free market policies in the 19th century (the 1800′s) got us 1,093 patents from just Thomas Edison alone, resulted in tens of thousands of actual true novel deserving inventions (not to be compared, for example, to modern “defensive patents” and software patents). We got the industrial revolution powered by the steam engine. We got transcontinental railroad, mass automobile production, Mendelian genetics, industrial-class electricity delivery, alternating current used in modern delivery of electrical power, the internal combustion engine, the telegraph, the light bulb, the telephone, “the age of machine tools”, the typewriter, the Hollerith punch card code and tabulating machines that evolved into today’s Deep Blue, the sewing machine..

And industrialization and the assembly line opened up a consumer market for the poor that was not there before.

The Great Depression, which was kept going by Roosevelt administration policies, in collusion with the Federal Reserve policies (“coincidental?”)

A massive freeing up of the private market brought Chile from the starving corpse it became under openly Marxist “Salvador” [sic] Allende, up to the “developed nation” status it has today.

Free market principles and slashing of regulations in post-war Germany after WWII resulted in the “German miracle“.

A massive permitting and licensing regime has shut down inner city home-based businesses, shuts down Mom and Pop enterprises across the nation, favors mega-sized agri-business firms over family farms, and taxation policies crimp growth at a totally arbitrary size that kicks in profit-killing government commands at totally capricious levels.

You think you are the best judge of the morality of what you do and how much it “helps society”? Then you have no right to impose your idea on any of the rest of us, no matter how many you can convince, no matter if it is the majority.

But the “odd” thing to me is how letting the free market work without political interference, actually results in the best possible outcome for the body politic.
