Un-common sense for states re the fedplague

Sites are proliferating that offer deep yet simple wisdom for the supposedly complicated problems making headlines these days. Here's a good one: www.zerohedge.com/news/guest-post-how-states-can-protect-themselves-financial-collapse How States Can Protect Themselves From Financial Collapse Well, how about it? Why should states send money to a behemoth that spends it on goofy junk? Each state is incapable of maintaining its own highways, etc? If Texas were to secede it would be something like one of the top fifty economies in the world. (Or was it the top 20?) I don't necessarily recommend secession as my friends in the League of the South do, but the possibility makes for some good statistics. Email from Talbert Black in Columbia yesterday -- a further blip on the screen: I just wanted to drop you a quick note that the South Carolina Sound Money bill, H4128, may get a vote on the floor of the SC House today. Remember, this is the bill that will give South Carolina a legal alternative to failing United States federal reseve notes. You can tune in and watch live at this link. Best regards, Talbert Black /\/.\/\/.

Truly rare book opportunity: Celente writes!

Again in the morning mail, a book promotion in the form of a press release. This time, though, it's HOT stuff! All patriots have come across fire-breathing prophets of patriotic truth Max Keiser and Gerald Celente. They're on "real" TV, they're on net TV, you're bound to come across them -- and your life won't be the same after you experience them! Celente's the star this morning because of a net radio appearance we'll cover below, but first, that promo I got..... OK, the Mac computer I'm on won't paste. But it's about the Spring issue of Celente's Trends Journal. Seek it out a trendsjournal.com and you'll be instantly out of the matrix and into the real world. As background to this subject, I bought a ticket bound to go somewhere good -- simply searched "celente" in youtube.com! The first search result will clean out cobwebs you didn't know you had. OK, people think Waller has this quaint obsession with Jewish power.... well, this interview between Celente and Jeff Rense will give anybody still laughing at me very well a clearer perspective on that and a great deal more, and fast. I swear I didn't seek it out or stack the deck in any way -- it was simply the first of the Youtube search results. Moral of the story: It's EVERYWHERE -- the liberating truth about the enslaving curse of Zionism. Am on a borrowed computer this week and can't do much. Pray my laptop's fixed soon, will you? And whatever you do politically today, PLEASE don't miss the resources named in this post. .......Tax scandal is everywhere, too -- that endemic to the IRS and your state Department of Revenue, the numerous new or exacerbated forms of taxation raining down on us, the creatively bizarre things prison inmates, medical workers, and numerous other classes of people are coming up with to exploit tax corruption.... Here, also virtually at random is merely the latest case that just came in: "Identity theft for the purpose of stealing tax refunds has reached epidemic proportions in America". For the article, search "25 signs that America is a seething cesspool of filth and corruption". /\/.\/\/.

Great irony tucked away under "Taxmageddon" headline

Are you a member of a Patriot Network egroup? Everyone needs to be! These have been going on since the internet age dawned and the PN immediately began making the most of it.

This headline made all of them today, or close:

teapartyeconomist.com/2012/04/12/taxmageddon-will-hit-on-january-1-2013/
Taxmageddon Will Hit on January 1, 2013
Written by Gary North on April 12, 2012

Normally a headline like that will have been created by the System for the purpose of scaring the citizens. But this is the work of the renowned Gary North.

Yes, there's a great scare factor in the story. The Bush tax cuts, if you can call them that, will expire on the day in question. Obama taxes will go into effect. But perhaps as a touch of irony, North shares this yummy tidbit:

If there is a last-minute deal before November, it will create havoc for the IRS. The IRS commissioner has described it as a “real disaster in the filing season where there’s total confusion.” Somehow, I do not care.

It is good to know that some of our overlords' schemes come back to haunt them.

Tax insanity near and far

An emailer sends an article preceded by a short, pithy commentary:

Spain "invested" heavily into the "Green Technology" industries,...and with the taxpayers money of course.
For every "green job" created, it cost several Million Euros and three "non-green jobs" were lost.
Many of the "green jobs" turned out to be temporary, as soon as the subsidy ran out, the industry failed.
You can see the same happening here in the US with the solar panel industry.
Now the fruits of their "investments" are paying their dividends.

On 29 March 2012, millions of people across Spain went on strike. The strike, which was the first general strike since September 2010, brought the country to a near halt. The situation in Spain has grown increasingly difficult with 1 in 4 people out of work and many struggling to make rent or mortgage payments.

Watch this short film about the events of the day (in english):

Pretty dramatic scenes! Looks like the third world in ferment, which, of course, is exactly what Europe is working hard to become.

............From Carolina Journal, a report on phenomena that have to be widespread way beyond the borders of the Tarheel State:

RALEIGH — North Carolina’s courts have ruled it is legal for local governments to use taxpayer resources to lobby the General Assembly on legislation, and that’s exactly what nearly two dozen cities and counties are registered to do as the May 16 legislative short session nears.

As of March 28, eight North Carolina counties and 10 municipalities were listed as principals in the North Carolina General Assembly Lobbying Directory, reports Carolina Journal. The local governments are sprinkled among more than 660 lobbyists and 700 principals registered to lobby on behalf of businesses, industries, and advocates for and against specific causes and issues.

The legality of local government lobbying is addressed in an April 2011 “N.C. Local Government Law Blog” by UNC School of Government Professor of Public Law and Government Robert Joyce. He reviews three cases — North Carolina ex rel Horne v. Chafin, Bardolph v. Arnold, and Dollar v. Cary. Joyce concludes:

“So, it appears, local governments may use public funds to try to influence the General Assembly in a particular direction and to put out informational materials regarding issues. They may not, however, use public funds to try to influence the outcome of an election — either an election for office or a referendum on a public issue.”

While the legality of local government lobbying is settled, the question of whether the practice is appropriate isn’t.

What do you know, the next link in that email is about a state official openly channeling taxpayers' funds into her own "green" nonprofit!

Ringing, stinging new denunciation of the income tax!

Have you noticed something? People and media are reluctant to ever accuse politicians of either sins or crimes. They are in my studied opinion among the most mind-numbing criminals in history. This is actually a pretty well-known fact, but you almost never hear the above forces (and CERTAINLY not pulpiteers) ever indicate so -- they will only mention the pols' "mistakes" and "failings".

This they do with jarring inconsistency. Maybe Hitler perpetrated "genocide" but Stalin, who killed vastly more people than the Nazis, is only rated as making errors in judgment -- the failure of his idealistic five-year plans in agriculture etc. Never mind that said plans were bone-headed from the start, denounced as such by the conservatives most people don't listen to, and led to yet more suffering and death instead of plenteousness.

But comes now one of those rare commentators who dares to call things exactly what they are. When he starts off by calling the income tax an abomination you know you're in for some fresh air:

http://theeconomiccollapseblog.com/archives/24-outrageous-facts-about-taxes-in-the-united-states-that-will-blow-your-mind
24 Outrageous Facts About Taxes In The United States That Will Blow Your Mind

This article makes a point that others have, but in a way only Dr. Clarkson used to with the proper aplomb: as he put it, "it is impossible to fill out a 1040 form correctly!" The author at hand racks up statistics to prove it.

With the reading of this article I must say I have never seen so many great angles on this story in one place before, especially not in such a short space. Wish I had time to take the grand tour of this masterpiece of reportage, but here's one sidelight I had no idea of which condemns the income tax in no uncertain terms:

http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2012-04-10/death-and-taxes-collide-as-fatal-crashes-mount-on-irs-filing-day.html
Death, Taxes Collide as Fatal Crashes Mount on Filing Day

We knew the income tax was murderous -- people kill themselves when they realize they don't have the money -- but this should prove loud and clear to any half-sane society that the monster has to go, that it's in a class of things that tend toward the depletion of the population itself!

Alas.... this not even being a half-sane society, it won't.

The good news is that the evils of income taxes can be reported freely, and it happens once in awhile. The bad news is that the ameriKan sheeple dash about what they imagine to be their business without paying these revelations the slightest bit of meaningful attention. Meanwhile, keep your friends informed that the Patriot Network is here to help them when bureaucracies call them out.

Great, optimistic Ron Paul video: There are no Romneyites in foxholes!

This Doug Weed is a fine, even jovial spokesman for the Paul campaign. The spicy news tonight is that evangelical Christians tried throwing in their lot with the Boy Scout from hell, Rick Santorum, but he's dropped out -- leaving them to go where? With unconscious yet precious irony, they're choosing Dr. Paul -- not because he's obviously the best candidate by far but because he appears the most likely to stay in the race till the end!

Ron Paul FLIX Show – Doug Wead Explains Santorum Dropout Impact – Apr 11 2012

YET AGAIN, with another focus group, the bottom line amounts to CONSISTENCY. The fundies don't feel they can trust Romney to go the distance, even though in their typically cloudy theology they imagine he's got some kind of integrity hidden away in his being (he doesn't). In this day when even the value of money isn't fixed any longer, they don't care to flail about in the sea of uncertainty any longer and are swimming for the only stationery object in view.

After all that is expounded in the video, they show you a roundup of the college kids turning out for him in the worst dens of leftist socialism, UCLA et al. Can it possibly be that the main victims of PC brainwashing, the young generation, is more de facto conservative than Christendom anymore?

Many who know better are still running around saying "Let's get a Republican elected. I don't care how we do it, but we can't have any more of Obama!".... while we in the real world are saying "Let's get Ron elected. I don't care how we do it, but we can't have any more leftist presidents, either neocon or Dummacrat!"

News of mind-numbing tyranny in Atlanta suburb; more analysis of the

The PN egroups have been abuzz with the unspeakably outrageous report of a man being literally harassed to death by city authorities because they wanted his stuff. It's at times like this that I fear there is no end to the downward spiral of corruption and despotism in ameriKa, even at the small town level.

http://www.naturalnews.com/035524_Andrew_Wordes_Roswell_chickens.html
City of Roswell, GA, bullies Andrew Wordes to death over his backyard chickens

Please read the entire article. It's important to us that people know the whole truth of how bad it's getting. We are not pessimists, we merely know that the public must become fully informed if things are ever to improve.

First it was the filthy ruling by the Supreme Court that jurisdictions could throw people off their property and seize it if somebody wanted to develop it into something that would bring in higher property taxes. Then this was put to use against a hapless woman in a beautiful old home in New England. She lost in and had no recourse.

Since then it's been one case after another as bureau-rats and wheeler-dealers have become bolder and bolder in trampling the Fourth Amendment. Now our homes are fair game as these same bureaucrats realize they've spent everything and need to fill the gap somehow.

Actually this is a very old "problem". Politicians have been grabbing what they wanted from people through all known history, and law and "FAIRNESSS" be damned! Ah, FAIRNESS. It's these same people who are constantly nullifying our rights under that very banner -- isn't it?

It shouldn't take any reader long to think of a classic, famous case of such "TAKINGS" thousands of years old, especially since it's exactly identical to the grabs going on today. Doesn't ring a bell? Take a look at First and Second Kings.

There is, of course, one big little difference between that crime and these: today the excuse given is the most trendy in the religion of political correctness: the environment. The government goons in Roswell wanted the victim's land for "GREENSPACE". Aw, isn't that sweet of them to care so much about the happiness of birds, squirrels and grasses that they'll drive a man crazy to give them free rein.

This outrage was supposed to be redolent of areas like Chicago and LA, perhaps -- but not, please God NOT a town in the heart of Dixie with the charmingly quaint name of Rosewell. We'll never know whether a spaceship crashed in Roswell, NW, but we do know they either killed or drove a decent man to suicide in Roswell, Fulton County, Ga. outrageously, ameriKans aren't even going to give one percent of one percent of the attention to the latter incident that they have done the former.
