Health Care Reform and the American Character

By Rep. Paul Ryan on 7.23.09 @ 6:09AM

What’s really at stake in the health care battle?

While it’s important to analyze the relative financial costs and benefits of health care proposals which Congress is considering, our greatest challenge cannot be limited to the economics of the issue. Our transcending concerns are moral and political. The American character itself and the principles of free market democracy which protect and preserve it may be lost beyond recovery if Congress chooses the wrong path to health care reform — the path down which the Obama Administration seems determined to lead our country.

How are health care and American character linked?

Public health has always been a government priority. The unquestioned power to quarantine for contagious sicknesses in order to protect the community’s health has been used for centuries. Selling unwholesome food and drink, carrying on industrial trades that infect or pollute the air, as well as neglect, unskillful management, and experimentation by doctors and pharmacists have traditionally been treated as crimes and grounds for civil lawsuits. Immunization programs to protect populations against disease have long been accepted as a legitimate government service.

The Framers of our Constitution were deeply influenced by the thought of William Blackstone, England’s greatest legal thinker. In his Commentaries, Blackstone explained that every individual has a “right of personal security” which includes protection against acts that may harm personal health. This right is part of the natural right to life, which means that it does not come from government but from “nature and nature’s God.” As the American Founders declared, the purpose of government is not to create new rights but to secure pre-existing natural rights of all persons, to life as well as liberty and pursuit of happiness. In other words, the priority of protecting people’s health, which is implicit in our founding principles, no more requires government to provide health care programs than, say, the legitimate concern that people be housed requires the government to build public housing. Government has a duty to secure these rights, but this obligation is normally met most effectively by establishing the legal and economic conditions for free markets that expand the opportunity and prosperity of all. When markets apparently fail to meet these needs properly — today’s health care delivery is an example — government should begin not by filling the need itself but by looking to and correcting its own interventions and making competitive free markets more effective.

The Founders’ highest hope in declaring independence from Britain, fighting the Revolution, and writing the Constitution was to secure human freedom. They established a “new order of the ages” for Americans to govern themselves in freedom, as individuals and as citizens of communities, states, and nation. There were to be no classes such as kings or nobles, clerics or intellectuals like those who ruled in old Europe by a supposed higher right. Popular consent alone would grant the power to govern Americans, and then only for a limited time between democratic elections.

Under the Founders’ model of “federalism,” the central government had a few great powers while most areas of society (e.g., public health) were left to the states to regulate and the people to order in free markets. They encouraged America’s citizens to take on the primary responsibility for controlling their lives: government’s mission was limited to setting up legal conditions for men and women to act in freedom in order to achieve their potential. The pursuit of happiness requires the cultivation of good character traits. Free citizens must avoid seeing themselves as passive victims of a government over which they have no control. Persons who assume the burden of responsibility for their actions, successes, and failures develop traits such as courage, fairness, initiative, charity, self-restraint, industriousness, enterprise, and above all prudence, the wisdom which directs each toward the right means needed to flourish as a mature person.

A very short description of the American character would be: this ensemble of moral qualities that make it possible for persons to live under self-restraint, without dependency, in personal relationships with others in community under God.

As Tocqueville discerned in Democracy In America, a human being who fails to practice these fundamental habits, especially the key virtue of practical wisdom, will gradually lose the ability to sustain basic human qualities and sentiments. Lacking the habit of making prudent decisions every day about one’s well-being and learning to accept the consequences of those decisions, one becomes a victim of necessity, passively serving unaccountable rulers who take it on themselves to define and satisfy the victims’ needs, desires, and pleasures. Tocqueville’s chief worry was something he described as a new kind of despotism. In generations to come, many citizens in democratic nations might be tempted to trade their liberty, which demands risk-taking, hard work, and self-restraint, for the easy security and benefits a “soft despotism” would bring. Tocqueville saw the path to this gray future in the growing centralization of government which had been at work in Europe for centuries. America’s Founders, for their part, risked their whole experiment in free market democracy on preserving the character of citizens in order to resist every such design to turn Americans into European-style servants of the government.

Under the Constitution, health issues were left not to a distant central government but to states and individuals under the states’ “police powers.” Decentralization strengthened the people’s close control over health issues and encouraged a diversity of medical practices and legal responses to health needs. Some were more successful than others. The states were in effect different laboratories applying varying approaches to public health concerns. Except for emergencies, public health was mostly advanced by free markets under local and state regulation, and spurred by federal patent and copyright incentives.

Congress in the early 20th century enacted laws to prevent interstate sales of unsafe medicines. The federal government also recognized a role in providing nationwide health-related information, establishing the Laboratory of Hygiene in 1887 and its successor, the National Institutes of Health, to carry out biomedical and health-related research, and in preparing for pandemics that don’t respect state boundaries. Ultimately, under our system of federalism and free market democracy, the health of Americans has improved and flourished beyond the hopes and imagination of earlier generations.

Federal intervention in health care, with the best of intentions, has sometimes proven inapt and difficult to eliminate after it has become obsolete. For example, federal tax code changes appropriate to the World War II era have resulted in making employers the major providers of health insurance rather than the employees, thus distorting employment opportunities and other job decisions. Other federal laws and regulations in the 20th century resulted in excessive government intervention and health insurer overinvolvement in treatment issues that rightfully belong to health coverage buyers, patients, and doctors. Because of these interventions, along with Medicare and Medicaid, the U.S. today does not have an efficient and competitive free market in health care delivery.

The federal government entered the area of health care delivery most massively in 1965 with the enactment of Medicare and Medicaid. Real cost control quickly became a nightmare. Fraud proliferated despite all attempts to stop it. Program costs have continually been underestimated. When Medicare began in 1966, the cost to the taxpayers was about $3 billion. The House Ways and Means Committee estimated that Medicare would cost only about $12 billion by 1990 (including inflation), yet the actual cost by then was nearly nine times as much — $107 billion. By 2006 Medicare reached $401 billion while Medicaid added another $309 billion for a total of $710 billion. The failure to control Medicare’s costs demonstrates why the Constitution inherently leans toward solving society’s problems by means of free market democracy and decentralized government.

* * * * *

America is now being pushed headlong into enacting a massive federal government-run health care program. The rush, of course, is the Congressional Democrats’ chosen strategy prompted by the Obama Administration’s hunger for a big victory. This strategy may be politically expedient, but it is extremely irresponsible, unwise, and unfair to the American people. Government-monopolized health service flatly contradicts both the moral principles of free market democracy and the excellence of health care that still draws patients from socialist utopias to the capitalist United States for medical treatment. This untested experiment with our national health demands no less than responsible public debate and prudent political judgment. Right now America is getting neither.

Right to our north, our neighbor Canada has a government health care system that should be an important part of our public debate. Liberals point to the Canadian system as a model for the U.S. The government is the single payer for health service, though most providers are in the private sector. In Canada the waiting list is up to more than 4 months between patient referrals and actual treatment for a dozen of the specialty procedures most needed. The average Canadian now has to wait over a month after getting a primary doctor’s instruction just for a CT scan, and more than two months for an MRI. Canada’s medical equipment is old, unreliable, and obsolete. Canadians notoriously travel to the U.S. if possible for treatments for everything from cancer and emergency care to hip surgery and childbirth. That nation has long suffered a professional “brain drain,” its doctors fleeing the government-run health care program to practice in the U.S. Our government tried to make this more difficult, yet according to a 2007 report, one in nine doctors trained in Canada is now practicing medicine here. Has the Obama Administration explained to Americans the facts about Canada’s “model” of government health care? Is this the kind of national health service the U.S. should imitate?

Congressman Ryan, these are all admirable sentiments, but for the most part, by publishing in TAS, you are preaching to the choir. Do the Republicans have what it takes to get out there to the people and espouse these same principles and sentiments? With few exceptions, I think not. This is a prime opportunity to put forth an alternative VISION to the American people. Far from shrinking from contacts with constituents during the upcoming recess like the Democrats are (and for good reason), Republicans ought to embrace it and take a "full court press" approach, and tar the Democrats with a failed socialist approach to everything, with their rush to get it done before everyone figures it out. Get out there, talk to the people directly. Get the MSM, aka, the Obama Press office, to take notice. Take the lead! The American people are getting sick and tired of BarryO and his minions and are looking for adult leadership. Will Republicans do it? I challenge the Republican congressional and Senatorial delegations to do so and prove me wrong.

Dear People Of The Amarican Spectator, I thank you for posting my statements and my site. But this will be my last posting within this blog site, because of all the race hate posted.
Mr. Ryan, I do not seek political suport, I look for just the person themself. I will allow you and all others to see into my thoughts and my heart of what I am allowed to see.
Thatthis concept we offer as a tax forum at first was in fact to destroy health care companies, but deep within me this would be wrong so we opened the door to the AARP to help build a United Forum that is a pay in forum for people that do not trust officals of Government. In others words because of the fact that one insurance can not stand alone to meet health care needs because of a dollar we wish to unite the difefrent insurance companies to work as one and keep a independance as a company. It is important that if a 50 state spread takes place of this issue, that a controling factor be in place to protect the health care dollars, at the Top.
The concept of the Patriot Act is in fact the most powerful weapon of law. I do and I will bring 250 million people and their thoughts of how this program concepts will work for them and how to protect them from being used in scams.
I offer to the People Of The United States and our Officals of Government a $100 trillion dollar package, a ten year building block of jobs within its concept will put million of people back to work. I wish I could offer higher paying job, but i cant, Im sorry
Why you ask I put up such a fuss, It Is because I see what is needed to protect this country from a people who wish for us to die as a nation.
To any people that feels that they can harm my children because they are part Jew, I say this, have you ever wonderd why the United States Army feared the Souix so much, ? It is because we have no fear of death, when it come to our loved ones and I will not let this Arabic Drug Empire futher divide us with all this worry of life because of a dollar.
If no one was to believe in themself because of what I write, I would stand alone and rebuild America with just a few.

Garret| 7.23.09 @ 7:15AM

I second that! Rocco is right. It's time for Republicans to hit the streets and the airwaves.

Henry massingale | 12.7.09 @ 6:31AM

Oh my word, what the hell happened, we went from a great health care concept to build on and someone slaped my granny in the mouth and all of this race hatred pops up.
You see I know without a doubt that people will see into what thousands of people helped me build at my site and they will print it out and mail it to Congress, it is even being done as of now by people that I do not know.
I was called a manmon by someone because I believe in God and Country and the rights of people. So what the hell is a manmon.....forget it I dont care..... I dont want to know.
While we stay stuck in this box of the internet, or words will only be seen but not repersented. But that is changing fast as I recieve more and more notes posted in the net by people and companies.
They have read what is within our site and they do indead have faith in their self. So all this race hate, you all run alone now, because there are people who wish to rebuild America for our children and yours also.

Henry Massingale | 12.10.09 @ 7:39AM

Garret,
I have a little task for Mr Ryan...

Mr. Ryan

We shall see if your bloging is as strong as your heart, so I wish to open minds of what I see into this 1900 pages of Bill To Law. It is a way to bring order to this failed system so that the system may come to be a complete circle again. The money is needed as a spending stimulus within the 360 degree circle within the United States. Seeing how these out side debts that is owed in behalf of the peoples tax dollars, gold is one of the options for these outside debts be paid and the health care dollars is need to pay off companies that Government Official run up a debt, also again in behalf of the peoples tax dollars.

, Like China and paying for oil.

Like companies that build things for Military use......

This health care money is really chump change, in the ballance of what is within the loss of tax dollars because of no jobs.....

I write things such as Pay It Forward Petition so it will be rejected by Officals Of Government. I task them, by a kind of poking you in the nose, in order to open your mind of what we have seen as a child and now 52 years later.

The Constitutional Order that is within this site is to be respected, I do not care If I write in the net, a letter or smoke signals, this must be respected as a Constitutional Right to be heard. And yes I also wrote it to reach out and poke you all in the nose, but the merit within is honest and strong.

As for The Federal Act Security Card it stands on it on two feet in behalf of the American People, to build on to. Or right to rebuild the National Security Of The United States Of America because of a facture that I see that is missing within this system.

This whole site is fast becoming a concept of freedom for the people to use their rights to help out in the goals of so many needs. And if one person within the Government system thinks that this will just go away, you realy need to look out the window.
Mr. Ryan you will find this task at our site and you are on page 48.

Melvin| 7.23.09 @ 7:35AM

A politician is a politician, is a bureaucrat. I would like to think that most politicians know that they have to respond to the needs of the nation and the will of the people. But on the other hand they really like those really nice offices with young cherubic blond staffers wearing short power skirts and low cut blouses that display, "Yea or Nea."
In order to keep those really nice offices Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi have the power to have an extreme amount of leverage that will play on the mind of the Senator or Congressmen, "Do I vote for the good of the nation and the will of our citizens or do I vote with the Party to keep my really nice office and cute staffers?"
I'm sorry people, but when you have an octogenarian Senator and young 20 something flat belly giggling herself in front of him the old boy will vote with his party every single time.
Every day these politicians get their derrieres fanned by adoring staffers, special interests, and perks that would make Donald Trump blush. Every waking moment they are told, "Senator, Congressmen your so wise and smart, and those Botox treatments really do make you look years younger."
Tell me how can the will of the people and the welfare of the Nation as the framers intended compete with that?

Henry Massingale | 12.7.09 @ 9:49AM

You know what the White House needs, a Woman President, so that the dirty laundry will be taken out. As Obama stated, a change is needed so why not a Woman ?....

ame| 7.23.09 @ 7:36AM

Perfectly stated, Congressman Ryan. Now we have to get our corrupt elected officials to STOP SELLING OUT THE USA and REJECT government health care in ANY form - get rid of Medicare and Medicaid, too, and leave health care service to the power of the states. Obama is selling out our very liberty and Americans better REVOLT - swarm Congress and if necessary march on D.C. WE HAVE TO TAKE OUR COUNTRY BACK!
Paul Ryan or Eric Cantor better be on the GOP ticket in 2012.

Henry Massingale | 12.7.09 @ 9:10AM

ame,
For 8 months people seen the concept of this tax forum that is offered and it is to force the system to work for the people and not over burdon their life. To place a concept of The Patriot Act to protect this health care money, is what it needs to rebuild our Country. This tax forum also forces Government Officials to work in behalf of the people as it should be.
So once again I ask for people within this blog to help build the forum and to help protect it from scams by the laws we have inplace today. Or we can allow to issue to be devided by states as they see fit, with no control other it other then a hope that Officals will stay within it creation and guidelines.
I do like what Mr. Ryan stated, but with out a Governing Order at the top, the structure of what is needed will be lost and out of control.
This healthcare belongs to the people and its creation of what we offer is a balancing of the cost on both sides.
And yes you all can thank dear old Ben Ladden for opening my mind to what is needed within this country. And I do give my thanks to all , for postng our site and helping me build it and for believing in youself. Henry Massingale

Paul Ashley| 7.23.09 @ 7:55AM

Thank you so much for laying out the underlying principle of why the Left's proposal should be opposed - not on fiscal grounds primarily but on grounds of its affect on the country's character.

But I do agree that the GOP should aggressively fight this fight publicly, making the battle not just on healthcare but connecting it to the entire drift into socilaism. This perfect exposition of the issue should have been a televised GOP response to Obama's healthcare press conference. If it had such a wide public airing it would make a sea-change in the already flagging support for the administration's socialist approach.

This article should be distributed to every legislator going home on recess to use as the basis for presentations to their constituents.

Sue| 7.23.09 @ 8:03AM

I agree that he's preaching to the choir. The conservatives need to teach the public about the "consequences" of centralized government and why the framers' wanted no part of it. Very little of our Constitutional principles is retained through education by our public educated citizens.

On a lighter note, I had two relatives go to the emergency room this week (true emergencies) and guess what? The rooms were packed, and I mean packed. A lot more than normal the registration people stated. Maybe the citizenry received the order stating that it's "free" now come and get it?
They said it had been "that way" all week!

I say, "let it ride!" All the way to the end. Why give the Democrats a way out of this mess and why help them destroy our Country? Let's do nothing more than accept the promise of FDR and LBJ. The Country might go to hell in a handbasket, but they'll be right along with us.

Henry Massingale | 12.7.09 @ 3:54AM

As long as people believe in the rights given to them within the Constitution, no Party will gain control over a people through the power of a dollar.
One must allow themself to see into this 1900 pages of Bill to Law. Government Officals have their butts in a jam because of the miss handling of the Peoples money. They need to Pay of China, for one thing......
Please allow yourself to believe in yourself and not what others may say , in a cause to gain faith for them......
I myself search for thing people write, so that my mind will grow and allow all who have joined the FASC Concepts in part or in whole, say, this is good and I support the efforts within because it states that , it is not the Henry,{ that I believe in myself as a person, it offers freedom for you and me and all to say no to Polical Control and the silence of a peoples right to be able to say no, and no to being controled over this health care dollar.}
I have placed this blog site on our main site on page 46. because the people within talk with respect and not a bunch of beer talk. As I stated I search for the words that will build and protect the peoples health care dollars and place it into a forum that helps the people and not bail out Government Employees failures.

Robert Rosencrans| 7.23.09 @ 8:13AM

Did anyone catch Obama's comment last night that Americans pay part of their premiums for "uncompensated care?" Presumably, that helps pay the bills of the illegal aliens who need health care. In other words we already have a national health care program. If that's so, then why the rush to disaster?

Don't kid yourself. This is a vote buying scheme pure and simple. Over half of the public has caught onto to that and opposes it.

Mattled| 7.23.09 @ 8:26AM

Mr. Ryan,

Great job and we support you 101%.

But Rocco is right----why don't you get some local stations to give some interviews and post it on YouTube.

The networks have been absolutely horrific as well as CNN in getting the truth out.

It's time to talk above them and to the people.

Louis Jenkins| 7.23.09 @ 8:38AM

Tonight a young girl goes to bed in two Americas. Although she is not hungry, she is perplexed at events that occurred throughout the day. She has discovered that her parents must pay for her to go a summer program at the YMCA, while there are other children who get to attend on a “scholarship” program at no cost. A man on a TV news program said that working Americans may end up paying 50% of their income as taxes to the government, while 43% of the population pays no taxes at all. The same newscaster said that earth is undergoing global climate change, and that the oceans will boil if carbon emissions are not reduced. Yet the weather forecast, that followed the newscaster, showed parts of her country with record setting low temperatures. She heard her parents talk about the president’s National Health Care Plan, and how it would be free to everyone, but also heard them speak on the massive tax increases needed to pay for it. Yesterday when her father read her the Constitution’s Bill of Rights, something she’s never heard read in school, she noted that there was no paragraph that mention Health Care as a Right. She remembers her president stating that all higher education should be free, but remembers the family’s costs to send her older sister to college. Most of all she wonders how she can be a child and already be thousands of dollars in debt for something she’s never had a choice in. She realizes that she will soon, as other children in America, be going to bed hungry.

Henry Massingale | 12.7.09 @ 9:31AM

Great statement Louis Jenkins,
I also have the same thoughts. But I was playing around on the net and a insurance company wanted money to cover children. I feel that a child is our tomarrow and what we offer within our site, is that a child is covered by the parents, within this tax forum concept, with no form of cost for children.
This health care money is a muti trillion dollar package, that the fight between two parties,{ the war has just begun.} and I say this belongs to the people and it will rebuild the lives ofus and our Country.
As long as people dont stay on track and help keep a eye on officals, it will take four years to un do the laws within this bill...... and for one last time,{ We The People Are The Government } and Officals of Government are, our employees. AAhhhhh ! It is going to be a up hill battle to change the phrases of such words. People need to read the original writting of the Constitution, It is a gift to people so they will never be ruled by miss conceptions of laws or admendments of law.

.......Uh.....without what one of your collegues termed "A Civil Cold-War".

I do hope you Republicans might choose to have your "pep-rallys" and caucus meetings on the Capitol Steps...Heck at least FOX will cover them!

May God bless your efforts, sir. We are praying for you.

I also agree. This information has to be taken to the public. Seems like the Tea Parties are a good way to get the information out and get the needed publicity.
Lets get the organizers busy and the speakers lined up. This needs to be accomplished before the end of August.

Big J| 7.23.09 @ 10:39AM

I applaud your article, Congressman Ryan. I do, however, have one serious question:

Do enough of your colleagues feel as you do, that this is complete destruction of our liberty?

If not, God help them on election day.

Rocco said it better than I could: members who truly believe in liberty need to take to the streets with a bullhorn. They need to put aside the business of the beltway, and start representing those they work for - US!

I hope for their sake that they take this simple advice.

Roger Kress| 7.23.09 @ 11:00AM

The only way “We the People” can effectively stop the insanity of this government is to stop the life blood that keeps it going. That is, the cash they are stealing from us. Government cannot and will not heal itself. The one force, which still holds the power in this country that can do it, is “We the People”. But, that power is being taken away daily and it won't be long before we no longer have the power of “We the People”.

I believe the time has past for talk and symbolic protests like the Tea Parties. Although they are a start, we need to mobilize a real effort to stem the tide of socialism that is being thrust upon us. The socialized liberals are not talking and making symbolic gestures, they are stealing our freedoms and making laws at an alarming rate. If we truly believe in the Constitution and in the fight our forefathers fought to give this country it's Freedom and Liberty than we must not be complacent, or any less aggressive at preserving those rights then they were. If we don't act with the same determination our forefathers did, than we disgrace them and make null all they fought and died for. We cannot and must not let that happen! We will be held accountable by future generations. What will we say when our grand kids and great grand kids ask the question! Why did you let this happen? You saw what was happening and did nothing to stop it.

The Boston Tea Party was not a symbolic activity! It was a revolution where by the American people said we would rather throw our goods into the harbor, and not sell them, rather than sell them and have to pay taxes to an oppressive government, thus cutting off the life blood. Even though it meant they would sacrifice income to support themselves. That is the kind of belief, bravery and tenacity it took to stop the tyranny then, and it will take no less effort and fortitude to stop it today.

I believe we need to cut off the governments source of power by withholding taxes, and there is a way it can be done without the government being able to stop it. Like our forefathers knew, the government cannot force us to open our business. They cannot put us in jail for not selling our products in effect throwing them into the harbor.

It has been said over and over that small businesses in this country are its backbone. If that's true, it's time to get America’s backbone back. We have been treated like the assholes long enough. We don't even need a majority to accomplish this task. Can you imagine if we could rally 100,000 small businesses in this country to close their doors every Monday? How about 500,000? No sales tax, no income tax, no payroll tax, no VAT and on and on. If Monday doesn't get their attention then Monday and Tuesday? And so on. Even 50,000 would make a huge impact. This would be the kind of movement our forefathers would have made. This is the kind of belief and fortitude that our forefathers and the future generations would be proud of. This is the kind of tenacity that made America Great!

I have been trying to get people to understand the power we have as Americans when work together as a team. T.E.A.M.
meaning T.ogether E.veryone A.chieves M.ore!

We need a T.E.A.M America!!!!!!!

We must regain our position as the backbone of this once great nation or forever be it's asshole.

I remember this great story about who needs to be the boss:

When the body was first made, all the parts wanted to be the boss.

The brain said, "since I control everything and do all the thinking, I should be the boss."

The feet said, "since I carry man where he wants to go and get him in position to do what the brain wants, then I should be the boss."

The hands said, "since I must do all the work and earn all the money to keep the rest of you going, I should be the boss."

And so it went with the eyes, the heart, the lungs, and all the other parts of the body, each giving the reason why they should be the boss.

Finally, the asshole spoke up and said it was going to be the boss.

All the other parts laughed and laughed at the idea of the asshole being the boss. The asshole got so angry that he blocked himself off and refused to function.

Soon the brain was feverish and could barely think, the feet felt like lead weights and was almost too weak to drag the body anywhere, the eyes grew bleary, and the hands hung useless at the sides. All pleaded with the brain to let the asshole be declared the boss.

As the great philosopher Hillel wrote: If not now when, if not us who?

I am but one small person who is trying to inspire us to greatness for the good of our Nation.
If we believe in the Constitution, Freedom, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness, which is, what our forefathers fought and died for, then we owe it to them, and to the future generations, to stand up boldly, and say enough is enough. Every day we stand in complacency, every day we try to send a symbolic message, every day we try to fight this battle on their turf we lose. We lose credibility and freedoms. Government will never heal itself; only We the People can stop this insanity.

I pray there are still enough Americans left (on the right) that are willing to fight on the side of Freedom, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness in the country, and save it from this tyranny. Please! Help me get the word out for real Americans to once again be part of the great T.E.A.M. America!

Yeaaaa ! I was about to give up, and now there is another person who knows what it is about, but one thing was left out, the why that Government Officals gave the Constitution to the people, it was because or that war. They were so deeply moved by the people and the sarafice within, of the lose of life, just for the one thing that is and all ways will be, For Freedom for the tomorrow for our children. There will never be laws created to infring against the people because even today our children fight these wars, for Freedom of their love ones.

Here we have the issue albeit in a lengthy fashion. Do we citizens sell our birthright for a bowl of pottage or maintain ourselves as a free people?
Future ages of mankind hang on the answer. They will either celebrate or rebuke our decision.
How will any of us apologize to our grandchildren?

A wise, ancient with rather archaic ideas who knew a little something about healing sick people once said, according to his beloved friend, that “no servant is greater than his master; no messenger is greater than the man who sent him (John 13:16; The Jerusalem Bible).” Yet those who have chosen careers as public servants sent to Washington by those who they claim to serve, are currently considering The Health Care Reform Bill which is the greatest threat ever to Democracy and Freedom in the United States of America. The very fact that these alleged public servants intend to exempt themselves from the consequences of this piece of legislative garbage proves my point. If it’s such a good plan, surely our elected officials would be clamoring to lead the way in signing up for it. But they are not. Instead they have once again weaseled out on their fiduciary responsibilities to this country. By exempting themselves they intend to establish a permanent ruling class of elite Americans which flies in the face of every Constitutional principle which is the birthright of every American. By establishing themselves as a royal class of Americans in violation of our Constitution, Congress and the president will be committing Treason. Treason is an impeachable offense. Ironically, the very elite class which would be guilty of this treason would be the very judges and juries of any impeachment. This kangaroo court would deny all other Americans due process under the law and would constitute an act of tyranny. A man whose intelligence and dedication to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness alone exceeds that of all those currently working in Washington DC, wrote back in 1776 “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.” A vote in favor of this bill is not reform, it is a death blow to the Nation which was born when the Declaration of Independence was signed by our honorable and valiant Founders in Congress 233 years ago. Another Dead President spoke about a “government: of the people, by the people, for the people” and expressed a hope that it would “not perish from the earth.” By setting themselves up as our lords and masters, Congress and the Kenyan-in-charge will destroy Lincoln’s hope.

Charles E. Brown| 7.23.09 @ 12:24PM

“America is all of a piece, its institutions are a product of its economic and social conditions, an expression of its character.” That is to say that Democracy, representative Democracy as it is practiced in this Constitutional Republic, is not a cause but an effect of our national character. The Republic, its rule by law and reliance on principles that do not change, is the direct result of that uniquely American Character. That unique blend of faith and freedom that has been the defining feature of this nation from the beginning.

It will always remain a dishonor, moral and intellectual dishonor, for the Western democratic societies that allowed the socialist experiments of the Twentieth Century to ruin the economies of whole continents and destroy the lives of countless millions of people, all with the acquiescence and support of intellectuals who believed themselves to be progressive. This long and historic encounter saw many of our most gifted writers, artists, scientists, and intellectuals energetically engaged in opposing our own political and social institutions that comprised the foundations of the American Character. The adversaries of freedom and democracy and individualism, namely the Communist movement, were never questioned by the progressives and intellectuals. They were complicit in socialist crimes but they refused to confront their complicity in these crimes and give up the illusion that had made them inevitable. They could have made one of two choices, either admit to the failures of their deeply held beliefs and recognize Socialism and the Communist movement as the failure that caused this destruction and abandon the Left. Following the Communist collapse the great majority of the secular progressive intellectuals continued their war against the democracies of the West and are now professors teaching in some of the finest universities and colleges in the Western Hemisphere. They continue their destructive attacks on capitalism believing that the collapse of Communism was the fault of those who attempted its reform. Many or most of them never seem to confront the moral issue posed by their destructive agendas. “The explicit agenda of critical theory is to undermine the credibility and authority of the status quo in order to prepare its annihilation.” Critical theory is the coy self description of the ideological Left. It defines itself by the totality of its rejection of the existing social order.

Mike| 7.23.09 @ 12:25PM

Congressman Ryan,

A suggestion: Why not take your superb article and ask Newsweek or one of the other high-circulation weekly magazines to publish it?

The Democrats’ health care reform ideas are rank socialism of the first order. You make an excellent case against this socialistic runaway train that has become the Obama administration and the Democratic congress. Ideas have consequences and I think yours could use some exposure in wider circles beyond TAS readers. Your well reasoned missive may be just what is needed to sober up public opinion and dissuade your colleagues away from the massive government takeover that Obama and the Democrats are attempting to foist upon the American people.

Roger Kress

Thank you.

I sincerely appreciate your composition, and have pasted it in my documents file.

One thought: Every business has a unique situation. For instance, my company could not achieve any chop in revenue collections by closing our doors for one day.

I have tentatively come up here on previous occasions with possible ways and means...and I think every small business owner/CEO could as well.
Possibly...to create the biggest real AND symbolic
or demonstrable impact...we need to decide upon the TIMING. We all need to do it at one time.

Thoughts?

America on the way to Fascism| 7.23.09 @ 1:00PM

Support for the Nazi Party had grown due to the country's problems of hyperinflation and the French invasion of the Ruhr. By 1928 Nazism appeared to be a dying cause. Now that Germany's outlook was suddenly bright, the Nazi Party was rapidly withering away. One scarcely heard of Hitler or the Nazis except as a joke.

After 1929, however, two short-term factors brought Hitler to power:

8. Economic Depression
After the Wall Street Crash of 1929, the US called in its loans to Germany, and the German economy collapsed. The Number of unemployed grew; people starved on the streets. In the crisis, people wanted someone to blame, and looked to extreme solutions – Hitler offered them both, and Nazi success in the elections grew.

Germans turned to Nazism because they were desperate. The number of Nazi seats in the Reichstag rose from 12 in 1928 to 230 in July 1932.

9. Recruited by Hindenburg
In November 1932 elections the Nazis again failed to get a majority of seats in the Reichstag. Their share of the vote fell – from 230 seats to only 196. Hitler contemplated suicide. But then he was rescued by Hindenburg.

Franz von Papen (a friend of Hindenburg) was Chancellor, but he could not get enough support in the Reichstag. Hindenburg and von Papen were having to govern by emergency decree under Article 48 of the Constitution. They offered Hitler the post of vice-Chancellor if he promised to support them.

Hitler refused – he demanded to be made Chancellor. So Von Papen and Hindenburg took a risk. On 30 January 1933 Hindenburg made Hitler Chancellor. He thought he could control Hitler – how wrong he was.

In the end, Hitler did not TAKE power at all – he was given it.

Hitler's Racial Ideology: Content and Occult Sources
by Jackson Spielvogel and David Redles

In a 1931 interview with a Leipzig newspaper editor, Adolf Hitler made a passionate declaration of the true significance of his National Socialist movement:

The Frenchman Gobineau and the Englishman Chamberlain were inspired by our concept of a new order-a new order, I tell you, or if you prefer, an ideological glimpse into history in accordance with the basic principle of the blood. We do not judge by merely artistic or military standards or even by purely scientific ones. We judge by the spiritual energy which a people is capable of putting forth, which will enable it in ten years to recapture what it has lost in a thousand years of warfare. I intend to set up a thousand year Reich and anyone who supports me in battle is a fellow-fighter for a unique spiritual-I would almost say divine-creation. At the decisive moment the decisive factor is not the ratio of strength but the spiritual force employed. Betrayal of the nation is possible even when no crime has been committed, in other words when a historical mission has not been fulfilled.1
This statement by Hitler gives rise to several intriguing questions. What was the "basic principle of the blood" which inspired Hitler's "new order"? What did he mean by the "spiritual energy" of the people and how was it connected to their blood? Why did Hitler envision his movement as generating a "spiritual" and even "divine creation" that would fulfill a "historic mission"? What was the relationship between "the basic principle of the blood" and Hitler's fanatical hatred of Jews? And finally, what were the sources of these ideas, assuming of course that Hitler was influenced by the philosophies of others? Is it possible that occult or esoteric racial philosophy may, in fact, have been one of the major sources for Hitler's racial ideology? In this paper we shall attempt to provide some answers to these questions.
It is evident from Mein Kampf and Hitler's speeches that he viewed racial conflict as the determining factor in all of human history. "The racial question gives the key not only to world history, but to all human culture."2 Race was not simply a political issue to be used to curry the favor of the masses, but the "granite foundation"3 of Hitler's ideology.

Hitler's racial ideology stemmed from what he called "the basic principle of the blood." This meant that the blood of every person and every race contained the soul of a person and likewise the soul of his race, the Volk. Hitler believed that the Aryan race, to which all "true" Germans belonged, was the race whose blood (soul) was of the highest degree. God Himself had, in fact, created the Aryans as the most perfect men, both physically and spiritually.4

Since the blood (soul) of the Aryans contained specific spiritual energies, the "cultural energies" or "racial primal elements,"5 as Hitler often called them, the Aryans supplied the culture that creates the beauty and dignity of higher humanity. In other words, all that man calls higher culture was ultimately the product of the spiritual and creative energies that exist in the blood of the Aryans. Hitler stated:

All the human culture, all the results of art, science, and technology that we see before us today, are almost exclusively the creative product of the Aryan. This very fact admits of the not unfounded inference that he alone was the founder of all higher humanity, therefore representing the prototype of all that we understand by the word "man." He is the Prometheus of mankind from whose bright forehead the divine spark of genius has sprung at all times.... Exclude him- -and perhaps after a few thousand years darkness will again descend on the earth, human culture will pass, and the world turn to a desert.6

Media control & Press control| 7.23.09 @ 1:57PM

To Hitler, the Jewish race was also attempting to poison the Aryan blood (soul) by utilizing social methods, such as cultural and political means. The Jew was the fundamental cause of the decadence that Hitler saw in modern art and literature. To Hitler, Jewish modem art was a deliberate attempt to infect the unconsciousness or inner self of the Aryan people. "Culturally he contaminates art, literature, the theater, makes a mockery of natural feeling, overthrows all concepts of beauty and sublimity, of the noble and the good, and instead drags men down into the sphere of his own base nature."13

But it is in the area of politics that Hitler perceived the greatest Jewish threat to the Aryan race. Jewish infiltration of the bourgeoisie had made the latter puppets for the execution of the Jewish plan for world domination. Thus the bourgeois economic institution of capitalism and the political institutions of liberalism, democracy, parliamentarianism, freedom of the press, and internationalism were all Jewish instruments creating disorder in the world as a stepping stone to domination.14

Big J| 7.23.09 @ 2:03PM

Tex,

I am with you (and we are practically neighbors - I hail from just north of "H Town").

You make the call, or I will. I am ready to take a stand - literally.

Up until Crap-and-Tax was rammed through the house, I was willing to wait for the '10 elections. Not anymore.

I am a small business owner, as well. It's unlikely that we'll even do half the volume that we did last year; most of our customers are pinching every penny they can. The "one day per week sabbatical" has turned into two, then three and so on, completely against our will.

After making all four quarterly tax payments on time last year, we got our yearly April 15th reaming. Bend over, grab the ankles and try to enjoy it (it'll be over before you know it). Fact is, the money just isn't there.

So, we filed the obligatory extension (as you know, the day of reckoning comes in the middle of next month). My thoughts? Set up a payment plan of $50 per month. Drag it out until the cows come home. Wash, rinse, repeat if necessary.

I'LL BE DAMNED IF I'M GOING TO FUND THE AUTO INDUSTRY, BANKS, INSURANCE COMPANIES, AND NOW THE HEALTH INSURANCE INDUSTRY WITH THE SWEAT OF MY BROW, CALLOUSES AND CUTS!

Whew! I feel a little better!

Next move, Tex?

I saw in an earlier post of yours that Tea Party is planning a trip to Washington. Funds are tight, but that is completely irrelevant at the moment. I haven't received any info on this, but I will be there.

Big J, I modified the following to remove all references to my secret identity. It is the text of an email I received the 17th:

From the Desk of:
Steve Elliott, President, Grassfire.org Alliance

Where Will You Be on 9-12?

Gill,

As a friend, a patriot and a concerned citizen, I'd like to extend an invitation for you to join Grassfire.org and thousands of conservatives nationwide to become a part of history on September 12, for the Taxpayer's March on
Capitol Hill!

Our mission is simple-to present a strong, unified voice of concern to lawmakers regarding the current Administration's policies-many of which we believe are reshaping our nation into a European socialist state. With each passing day,
we fear our voice and constitutional rights are being ignored and trampled. Our deep concerns over taxes, the sagging economy, and foreign policy cannot be cast aside any longer. That's why we are boldly taking our concerns, our worries and our fears to Capitol Hill.

Join with me right now, taking a stand for yourself, your family and future generations of Americans.

Tens of thousands of American patriots are already taking a stand. They refuse to allow their constitution and country to be overrun and turned into a socialist state.

Like our forefathers, these patriots are calling for a rebirth of individual responsibility and a new era of limited government by the people and for the people - not special interests!

++ Make Your Travel Arrangements

I am pleased to announce that One Step Promotions and Incentives, Inc. has stepped forward to offer their services to manage travel,
hotel and on-site organization for our Washington Rally. One-Step will be offering a variety of travel and lodging packages for every budget.

All registration for the event and travel will be web based for speed, accuracy and privacy. If you have not done so already please make your travel arrangements.

++ Join Your ResistNet State Groups

Also make sure to join your ResistNet State Group. The ResistNet network of state groups provides a vibrant web to communicate, identify, discuss, and take action on local and national issues. A state coalition of members will provide an team that is ready at a moment's notice to politically take action in local, state, and national events.

We've made it easy for you to join.

++ Silence is No Longer an Option

Too much is at stake to remain silent. American citizens must become active and engaged, or risk the end of our nation, as we know it.

I believe we can achieve something miraculous on September 12. I believe we can begin taking back our nation from the very brink of destruction - if Americans take a stand!

Take a stand with me right now, and become part of something scholars will one day point to as a defining moment in our nation's rebirth-the 9-12 Taxpayer March on D.C.-a day when hundreds of thousands of American patriots arrived on Capitol
Hill armed with one vision, one mind, one cry!

I look forward to marching with you in our nation's Capital on September 12, 2009.

Len| 7.23.09 @ 4:40PM

Congressman Ryan..WARM, BUT NOT HOT. You are close, but still not quite there.
1) I have a problem when you refer to the services of private citizens as the "health care system". By referring to what is a voluntary service provided by one citizen to another, granted many times over, as an exchange of one persons fruit of labor for another's, as this impersonal "system", it makes it seem as if it merely something belonging to all, in which case all would indeed have a right to determine the mode of service. As government can only rightfully restrain people from harming others, there is certainly right for government to say hey you're business model is flawed, that's what consultants are for. It also violates the liberty of conscience, in that if the providers are not being negligent in the health care aspect of the business, the way that is provided is no one else's business.
Also, I might add that no how matter how poorly the business model is, it still does not give government the authority to preempt the right of making one's decision how to conduct business.
2) Revenue to government can only ever be for that which is the proper purview of government, and that means the fundamentals of government, such as a police aspect which protects the people, and a legal aspect which helps create an orderly and harmonious society as all understand what is the agreed mode of conduct, publicly, interpersonally and in business or commerce.
Secondarily would be those things that are public goods such as roads which benefit all by enabling the enrichment of communities and societies through the ease of travel and transport.
However, something such as the government providing health care is specific to individuals, not a public good. Also, such a thing can only be done by violating the rights of one to his fruit of labor. It does not matter how many want this, it is still a great evil, and to be resisted with all due means.
3) The US constitution grants no authority to congress to even consider any kind of legislation in this area. Your first responsibility legally is not to offer alternative plans, any and all which are trespasses and breaches of your office, but to stand athwart the violators and decry their lawlessness. It is not negotiate for something less, but to say you/we have no authority to enact any law concerning health care, PERIOD.
Now I know that in today's environment, you are to the right of those choosing to do wrong, but in all honesty, by the standard of natural rights you are to the left. Sir I say this not to discourage you, but rather to encourage you to hold to the highest standards.

jr| 7.23.09 @ 4:55PM

Paul Ryan, I agree with you and applaud your article. But if you have any fluence on Republicans in Congress get their brains moving. The libs, Marxists, Obama, Pelosi, Reid etc., are outsmarting you people at every turn. Did any of you sponsor or cheer-lead the Tea Parties around July 4? Do you think that by voting no in the House or Senate, the bills will not pass? Obama is spreading his Marxism and nothing is being done. What do you think will be the one thing that will stop it from happening? Voting no? If you Republicans cannot get it stopped, tell us and promote something that will get the process started by us little folks. But it will take more than Rush Limbaugh and others to do it.

Conservative Democrats | 7.23.09 @ 5:39PM

By LAURIE KELLMAN (AP)

WASHINGTON — Conservative-leaning Blue Dog Democrats are enjoying a power surge like no other in their 15 years, forcing President Barack Obama and their own party leaders to deal with their demands for cost cuts and tax restraints in overhauling health care.

The evidence is everywhere these days: Polls show the public shares their concerns about the cost of Obama's plan to insure all Americans who seek health coverage. Obama himself has spent valuable presidential time in private talks with these Democrats and in near-daily appeals for the public to prod Congress into action. And the group's political fund raising is peaking.
All the while, Obama and Democratic leaders have issued shout-outs to the faction of 52 House members, a sign of the clout Blue Dogs wield over some of the president's top priorities — none more than his plan to provide health care to virtually all Americans.

"I think, rightly, a number of these so-called Blue Dog Democrats — more conservative Democrats — were concerned that not enough had been done on reducing costs," Obama said Tuesday in an interview with CBS News.

That's a measure of validation for a group that spent its first decade being ignored by Republicans and tolerated by more left-leaning Democrats.

There was more.

On Wednesday, the Blue Dogs saw their organizing principle, a pay-as-you-go fiscal spending policy, pass the House by a 99-vote margin. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi called a news conference to praise the group. Her second-in-command, Majority Leader Steny Hoyer, thanked them from the well of the House chamber and called the group "real Democrats" at a time when they are less popular with the party's liberal flank.
"How sweet it is," said Budget Committee Chairman John Spratt, D-S.C.

The Blue Dogs' political action committee raised $1.1 million in the first six months of this year, more than it raised for the entire 2003-04 fundraising cycle, according to the nonpartisan Center for Public Integrity.

Established when Republicans took control of Congress in 1994, the mostly Southern Blue Dogs named themselves for an old saying: Southerners would vote for a yellow dog if it were on the Democratic ballot. A blue dog, they reasoned, would represent a moderate or conservative who had been "choked blue" by their more liberal Democratic colleagues in the years leading up to 1994.

Political descendants of the Boll Weevils who supported President Ronald Reagan's tax cuts and the states' rights Democrats before that, the Blue Dogs can now count members who represent districts as far from the South as California, Utah, Iowa and New York.

Nowadays, their power stems from the plain math in a House controlled 256-178 by Democrats. If the 52

Blue Dogs stick together and vote no on health care or any other bill Republicans oppose, the president's party doesn't have a majority.

Still, it's not yet clear whether Obama, Pelosi & Co. are merely flattering the Blue Dogs with attention and a salute to the group's top priority, fiscal discipline - or truly willing to accommodate their concerns on health care.

Pelosi says House Democrats have the votes to pass health care reform, the Blue Dogs' concerns notwithstanding.

"I'm more confident than ever," Pelosi told reporters Thursday. "The momentum is there. When the bill is ready we'll go to the floor. And we will win."

To some ears, those comments undercut the Blue Dogs' leverage in the negotiations.

Yet the Blue Dogs apparently have succeeded in
shaping the legislation's development.

Their list of 10 changes they wanted made to the bill inspired Energy and Commerce Committee Chairman Henry Waxman, D-Calif., to postpone a committee vote on it.

"I've been meeting to death, so if that has been for
naught until they counted votes and just to occupy our time, I'm sorry," said Rep. Charlie Melancon, D-La. "I thought we were legitimately having
conversations about writing a good health care bill for America."

Health care is Obama's top legislative priority, an overhaul that could affect every American voter and employer and ranks in recent polls as the public's top concern.

But only half of Americans approve of the president's handling of the issue, slightly lower than his rating in April, according to an Associated Press-GfK poll released Tuesday.

More telling: The number who disapprove jumped from 28 percent in April to 43 percent, with Obama losing support from independents. And those who have confidence in Obama's ability to reform the nation's health care system dropped from 63 percent before his inauguration in January to 56 percent now.

The AP-GfK Poll, conducted July 16-20 by GfK Roper Public Affairs & Media, interviewed 1,006 adults nationwide and had a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 3.1 percentage points.

Obama's "yes we can" rallying cry is qualified somewhat by his ability to keep his party together. And that means a working alliance with the Blue Dogs even as liberals in the president's party pillory the group for holding up what they say is badly needed change.

House passage Wednesday of the founding centerpiece of the Blue Dogs' agenda, the "pay-go" policy designed to keep new laws from adding to the deficit, may be just a coincidence. But it also could be a carrot that Obama and Democratic leaders hope will attract some Blue Dog votes for the health care overhaul.

That bill appeared to be on track until last week, when Douglas Elmendorf, the director of the Congressional Budget Office, said it lacked steps to control the costs of health care in the future, one of the Blue Dogs' biggest concerns.

Meetings on the health care bill between the Blue Dogs, Democratic leaders and the White House are continuing. Rep. Mike Ross, D-Ark., said he spent much of Wednesday in closed-door negotiations with Waxman and planned to resume them Thursday.

"We didn't get an agreement," Ross said after Wednesday's meeting, adding that Obama's goal to have a bill passed by mid-August wasn't part of the talks.

"I refused to discuss any artificial deadlines," Ross said. "That's not part of the talks."

An anonymous reader writes to point us to an article on the meaning of a new law that President Bush signed on Oct. 17. It seems to allow the President to impose martial law on any state or territory, using federal troops and/or the state's own, or other states', National Guard troops. From the article:
"In a stealth maneuver, President Bush has signed into law a provision which, according to Senator Patrick Leahy (D-Vermont), will actually encourage the President to declare federal martial law. It does so by revising the Insurrection Act

New Martial Law EO
Once In Control - Martial Law Will Stay
By Ted Twietmeyer
4-14-8

In May 2007, Bush signed executive new orders NSDP51 and HSDP20 to replace REX84. The older order REX84 was an older directive to establish martial law in the event of a national emergency. Everything done in government is done for a reason, and these two new orders are no exception.

These new directives surprised and alarmed many real conservatives and true patriots at the time. These two orders established that the White House administration would take over all local governments under a national state of emergency, instead of Homeland Security.

In May 2007, The Washington Post apparently saw nothing wrong with it and placed the story back on page 13 (a fitting unlucky number for it), according to a CSPAN television interview with well known author and writer Jerome Corsi:

Page 13 of Washington Post from May 2007 reports that Bush claims he will

My fellow Patriots, Our forefathers have clearly defined what government is, what government should never be and what our role is in defending Liberty & Freedom. Their brave words have shown that it is our "Patriotic Duty" to oppose government when it even hints at laws that begin to tread upon our Freedoms lest it becomes too powerful and too tyrannical.

I believe these are more than “JUST WORDS”.

This is the “SPIRIT” and these are the “BELIEFS” that built this country.

This is the “SPIRIT” and these are the “BELIEFS” our forefathers died defending.

This is the “SPIRIT” and these are the “BELIEFS” that made this country great.

This is the “SPIRIT” and these are the “BELIEFS” that are no longer negotiable.

This is the “SPIRIT” and these are the “BELIEFS” that now fall upon us to defend.

100s of Thousands of Workers Will Lose Unemployment Benefits Soon

Hundreds of Thousands of Workers Will Lose Unemployment Benefits Soon
By Marie Cocco
Go To Original

When a virulent disease is ravaging you like a cancer, you don't want a cacophony of voices promoting different or contradictory cures. Yet that is what we're starting to hear about the economic crisis, not only from a politically divided -- and pretty scared -- capital, but from within the Obama administration itself. In just the past few days, Vice President Joe Biden has said the young administration misread the depth of the recession -- an honest account, since most private economists did as well. Laura Tyson, an outside economic adviser to the White House, said it's wise to start preparing another stimulus package.

Then President Barack Obama made everything perfectly muddy when he said in an ABC News interview that the seriousness of the downturn and how to attack it is "something we wrestle with constantly." Yet in the next breath, he expressed concern about the burgeoning deficit. But if anyone's looking for some clear voices, there are 650,000 of them just waiting to be heard. That is roughly the number of long-term unemployed who will begin losing their jobless benefits in September, according to the National Employment Law Project. Remember, the recession didn't start last fall when the government bailed out AIG and the financial system froze. It began in December 2007 -- and 6.5 million jobs have been lost since then. Depending on which state and the sort of triggers that apply to benefits, hundreds of thousands of workers laid off early in the downturn are soon to be left without the basic sustenance of an unemployment check.

Henry Massingale | 12.8.09 @ 8:58PM

I agree with every thing here you stated, 99.9%, but If you went back to September 11,2001 and watched the stats of cost vs. income and then the scams brought a deeper down fall of stibility.
Loss of jobs vs. cost of living = a 27 per cent loss of tax rev., that brought the 2007 down fall as you stated.
What puzzle me, that if us little people, like you and I can see the down fall of our system by days, then I know Government Officials had to see. So my questain is, why wait until Officials look stupid before they step in ?
Its .......just lost to my thoughts of why ?

Health insurance companies brought the desire for a government takeover of healthcare on themselves. Their fraudulent failure to reimburse claims, their utter contempt for doctors and patients, and their executives walking away with hundreds of millions of dollars in benefits and stock options by refusing to pay legitimate claims have turned America against them. Where are the Congressional hearings to call these insurance companies into account?

US economy would be worse without bailout-Obama
Wed Jul 22, 2009 8:52pm EDT
WASHINGTON, July 22 (Reuters) - President Barack Obama said on Wednesday that U.S. economic conditions "would be even worse" if the government had not provided a bailout of the financial system.

"We were on the verge of a complete financial meltdown," Obama said during a televised news conference from the White House.

He said there is now "stabilization" in the U.S. financial system. "We've stepped away from the brink," Obama said.

The president said imposing fees on risky lending is an option being considered to discourage banks from going back to their questionable business practices.

President Obama did what he felt was right and yes it did plug a hole or two, but what is being over looked as the wise investment is a stimulus package that builds the life of a person . This drop in the bucket of help only allows people to make it from one month to the next.
I once wrote if I had the money to give 175 million people in trouble $10,000.00 each and now all of my money is gone, I would stand before all and ask for $1.00 dollar back and I would have $175 million dollars to start all over again. The moral of the story is, are the American People a worthy Investment to reboot our Country ?

Health care in America can be best summed up by the immortal words of W. C. Fields, "Never give a sucker an' even break."

In other words, sheep were born to be sheared. And if the American people are stupid enough to let themselves be used in such a blatant manner, then they aren't worth anything better.

Rob| 7.24.09 @ 7:11AM

Hello readers,

As someone looking for the best way forward concerning the health care issue, I was hoping... no, I was expecting to find that way here but I am very disappointed. I am one of the 47 million people without health insurance. I had what was considered the best private health insurance for 21 years and even when I had it, it was as if I did not have any at all. For example, I was told that my doctor visits were covered but that turned out to be a lie. The relationship between the health care provider and the health insurance company is one in which both gain at the expense of the patient. The doctor's office overcharging the health insurance company and the insurance company systematically denying claims while raising premiums have been the norm for decades. It's one great big scam and I come on here and read how if Obama's health care plan is adopted, then I should fear the same types of scams that I have seen first hand over the last 20 years. I hear you people say that instead of some private insurance representative determining what level of care I get (if any at all) some government bureaucrat will. The difference is that the private health insurance company profits by denying or controlling the level of health-care I get and the government bureaucrat has nothing to gain or lose. So which do you think I am going to trust more?

Apparently there are two different Americas. In one America the health-care system works just fine and needs no changes and in the other America the health-care system is one great big scam. The America where the health-care system is a scam is growing while the America where the health-care system is just fine but could be better if only Medicare and Medicaid were eliminated is shrinking. Health-care providers who are less interested in providing health care and more interested in maximizing their income are revered by the America where the health-care system is just fine. The America where the health-care system is a scam is somehow a threat to the other America as if the 47 million uninsured and millions who are under-insured suddenly became as insured as the other America then "everything" would be ruined for "everyone".

Most of my life I have heard that the conservative attitude is "I have mine and to hell with you" and only now do I understand the truth in that claim.

The country would not need health-care reform if the private health-care system was not such a corrupt mess in the first place. Not one single solution to the messed up health-care system was suggested in the featured article nor the reader comments. I have identified myself with conservatives and the republican party for well over two decades and I am really miffed at the approach the leaders of both are taking to health-care reform. I am not particularly fond of Obama nor do I agree with him on most issues but on the issue of health-care I agree with Obama all the way. In fact, I want to see an end to all health insurance companies (government and private). Go make your case to the public while this conservative exposes the rest of you for the self centered jerks that you are.

Big J| 7.24.09 @ 8:38AM

Rob:

I sympathize with your situation. For the first 5 years of self-employment, neither my wife nor I had health insurance. It is nearly impossible for a small company or an individual to find a reasonably priced plan. I had been in business about 7 months when I broke my ankle and required over $7,000 in corrective surgery. Ouch!

My electrician's trade association has been lobbying congress for years to pass association health plans (AHP's). This would allow all the members of any organization to band together and receive great discounts, making health insurance as affordable to a small business as it is to Wal-Mart or AT&T. Unfortunately, the insurance lobbyists are much more powerful than we are.

The cause of skyrocketing health insurance costs is not "greedy, profit-seeking insurance companies", nor is it "greedy, profit-seeking doctors".

The first problem is that the government mandates what coverage the insurance company must provide, if coverage is furnished. Often, there are many things covered that are not needed. Some people are young and healthy, and simply need catastrophic coverage, but the government bureaucrats will not allow this simple coverage.

Also, doctors are so scared of being sued, they often order more tests than are needed, simply to avoid malpractice lawsuits. While their malpractice insurance skyrockets at an alarming rate, they slowly see income go down each and every year. Most of these lawsuits are frivolous (I am not saying that all of them are), and cost the doctors millions each year. This needs to be addressed.

Finally, the burden of insurance has been placed on the employer. Since no job is necessarily permanent, this is a bad system. Administration is a complete nightmare, especially for a small business that might know a lot about installing electrical materials, but nothing about insurance.

As for the solution you are looking for:

1) Less government mandates. Allow the individual to "cherry-pick" their coverage to suit the individual's needs.

2) Tort reform. If the "loser pays", you would see a massive reduction in frivolous lawsuits. This would reduce the financial burden on doctors and malpractice insurers, lowering costs.

3) Tax deductions for individuals purchasing their own insurance. This would provide incentives to each person to be responsible for his or her own coverage. Coordinated with health savings accounts (pretax) that are allowed to "roll over" to the next year, this would place responsibility back where it belongs.

Finally, I urge you to research the debacle that has become Medicare and Medicaid. They are experiencing unprecedented short falls. They are also responsible for rationing, as many doctors won't accept these programs: the reimbursements are too low.

Self centered? No. I just see what you obviously do not. Government is not the answer to our problems. Government IS the problem.

When applied properly, free market based solutions work every time.

One last question: how many people do you know of that actually LEAVE the U.S. to seek health care in other countries?

How many leave other countries to seek health care here?

Henry Massingale | 12.8.09 @ 9:24PM

Yes Big J.,
Very very nice, there is one little issue that needs to be within your statement, thousands of people go to a hospital or to a doctor and the bill is not paid for one reason or another, this factor is not covered by government policy. After time and cost build up, on none payments medical cost issues, a sir charge is applied and revised to make up for the loss of money after the tax right off.......

Jack Lohman | 7.24.09 @ 11:08AM

Where are our heads?

It never ceases to amaze me, the amount of energy that can go into a project just to avoid doing the right thing, and reforming health care is at the top of that list.

The best, simplest, least costly, most effective thing we could do is expand what has been working so well for 50 years, Medicare. You get sick, you get care, and the caregiver gets paid. Guaranteed. Nothing could be simpler. Simple is inexpensive and simple doesn’t break, while complexity is very costly to administer.

Churchill had it right when he said “Americans will always do the right thing, but only after everything else has failed.”

Can you imagine having no police department, with everybody required to hire their own private security firm? Or their own private fire department contractor? With the private entities getting paid on the basis of how many tickets they wrote or fires they extinguished? And all roads leading to your driveway are privately owned and accessible only via a myriad of tolls?

Ridiculous all.

Some things are best handled by the government, and establishing one nationwide pool of patients is in the best interest of the country. Medicare is not perfect, but it is far better than the 1500 insurance companies we have, and their 15,000 variations on insurance plans. Isn’t one plan enough, where all people get all necessary care? Or are people expected to know ahead of time what type of care they should insure against?

Henry Massingale | 12.8.09 @ 9:29PM

Jack,
Medicare is a perfect forum that covers to a limit as a insurance company dose, it is the person that scams the system that makes it un-perfect..

Wake up folks its a new world and America is not the leader. Better get used to it.

Here we reproduce Patrick S. J. Carmack’s warning letter about the bailouts of banks. The gist applies to government bailouts of banks and other financial institutions in general.

The irony of the U.S. government bailing out failing banks! The U.S. government had around $10 trillion of debt, which it had no hope of paying off, before it started bailing out failing banks/financial institutions. How does a bankrupt entity bailout institutions facing bankruptcy?

Criminal Jews, empowered by the Federal Reserve Act of 1913, are leeching more wealth from the public. As Carmack warns, the Jewish banking parasites will restore the economy eventually, but emerge more powerful and with greater concentration of wealth in their hands. The boom-bust economic cycle will repeat till almost no person owns anything but the ability to borrow, credit scores rather than savings will determine the average American’s ability to engage in economic activity – as in buying a home or car – and no one could publicly speak against criminal parasitic Jews.

The Federal Reserve Act of 1913 needs to be repealed ASAP. Fractional reserve banking – the practice of creating over 90% of a loan out of nothing – and money creation in any form should be forbidden on the part of private banks.

Who’s Behind the (Taxed Enough Already) TEA Parties? The Jews!
Submitted by Administrator on Sat, 04/25/2009 - 23:30
The Tea Parties crusade, a form of protest against excessive taxation by the government, was started by Pajamas Media. Pajamas Media group explains,

Pajamas Media began in 2005 as an affiliation of 90 of the most influential weblogs on the Internet. They were linked together as an advertising network, but the intention was to provide a significant alternative to mainstream media. Two years later PJM has expanded its reach. Besides adding to its blog network, through its portal, PJM now provides exclusive news and opinion 24/7 in text, video and podcast from correspondents in over forty countries. Pajamas Media also has its own weekly show on XM satellite radio – PJM Political – and syndicates its original material like a news agency.

The founder of Pajamas Media is the Jew Roger Lichtenberg Simon. Pajamas Media got initial funding from venture capitalists (often Jewish parasites / vultures). The Pajamas Media staff is full of Jews; we encounter obvious Jewish names such as Rubin, Kaplan, Green, etc.

The personal taxes paid by Americans go toward the interest payments the U.S. government owes to its creditors, the largest being the Jew-owned Federal Reserve, a private corporation. How come the mighty U.S. government can’t come up with its own money but private banks are able to lend it trillions (U.S. national debt currently exceeds $11 trillion)? Where do these private banks, such as the Federal Reserve, get all this money from? The bankers create it out of nothing! So why would the Jews try to organize a movement against such a profitable system?

Simple. The Jews are up to their old tricks.

Jews create a problem and then scramble to offer a ‘solution.’ Jews like to play both sides of the fence.

By striking a chord with a taxed-enough public, the Jews draw attention to what they portray as alternative internet media. The Jews are seeking to build the major ‘alternative media network’ in the internet.

Reading/watching many items published by Pajamas Media requires user registration. And by organizing TEA parties, the Jews and their agents get to seek frustrated individuals who may know a little too much about the Federal Reserve Fraud and Jewish machinations. In short, the Jews are collecting names and other details about people who could be troublesome for the Jewish crime network.

FED PONZI SCHEME| 7.24.09 @ 3:45PM

Bernard ‘Bernie’ Madoff $50- or $65-billion Ponzi Scheme – A Newer Type of Jewish Deception
Submitted by Administrator on Sun, 04/12/2009 - 05:40
With the Jewish Crime Network exposed to millions around the world, criminal Jews are increasingly looking at having some of their own criminals arrested to protect the Jewish crime network at large. The $50- or $65-billion ponzi scheme allegedly run by Jew Bernard Madoff is a case study of this phenomenon.

Here are a few of Madoff’s alleged victims:

Victim | Loss

HSBC | $1 billion

Access International | $1.4 billion

Fortis Bank | $1.4 billion

Tremont Capital | $3.3 billion

Union Bancaire Privet | $1.1 billion

Kingate Management Ltd. | $2.8 billion

Santander | $3.1 billion

How can professional financial institutions – banks, investment firms, hedge funds – become the victim of a ponzi scheme? There’s no way professional financial institutions will invest hundreds of millions or more with any entity without a thorough multi-year audit to determine how the returns were being obtained. In other words, a ponzi scheme won’t get past professional financial institutions, period.

The Bernard Madoff case gets more interesting though. We are told that he had been running his ponzi scheme for 20 years, unbeknownst to the SEC, other financial regulators and even his own senior employees! The mainstream media have extensively covered the Madoff ponzi scheme, reported Madoff’s assets as between $800-$900 million, but they have yet to tell us what happened to the $50- or $65-billion allegedly swindled by Madoff and what is a good estimate of the amount of money swindled by Madoff.

What is the Bernard ‘Bernie’ Madoff case about? It’s not difficult to figure out:

Jews are trying to convey that a few bad fish are responsible for the financial turmoil instead of the concerted working of many.
To convey the impression that organized Jewry isn’t at fault, Jews flooded media outlets with all the Jews that have supposedly been defrauded by Madoff. The victimizing Jews are claiming to be victims, as usual! Just a few examples:
First we heard about bigwigs such as Jeffrey Katzenberg (CEO of Dreamworks), Carl Shapiro (Kay Windsor clothing), Steven Speilberg (Film Director), Elie Wiesel (Master Holohoaxer), etc. Take a look at this image from the Daily mail online; an all-Jew list isn’t a coincidence.
Jews gave extensive publicity to a Mr. Goldstein who lost his life savings to Madoff. Why not a Mr. Jones or Mr. Johnson?
Then there was (Jewish) Brandeis University ending up on the verge of financial collapse, facing a $79 million deficit over the next 6 years, thanks to Bernard Madoff.
We were told about the sob story of the financial rug pulled out from under three generations of the Siegler family, as an illustration that the heartless Madoff even targeted non-millionaire Jews.
Since fraud is alleged, there’s going to be an ‘investigation’ involving high profile lawyers and finance people. This will allow Jews to leech a few hundred million dollars from the taxpayer for the ‘investigation.’ The investigation will obviously be a joke. As it is, Bernard Madoff plead guilty, obviating the need for prosecutors examining the financial trail of evidence, which is surely very scant of documentation.
Since fraud is alleged, there will be compensations and tax credits.
Obviously, criminal Jewish parasites are going about leeching more money by presenting us with the ridiculous ponzi scheme tale. But the more important issue, and reason for cheer, is that they have to now make some sacrifices to preserve their crime network. Who gets sacrificed? Preferably the less important members of the international Jewish crime network. An old Madoff, who may have some disease that won’t let him live long, may just have been the right Jewish criminal to sacrifice. But there’s bound to be some friction among Jews regarding who should be sacrificed, eventually leading to criminal Jews trusting each other less because each Jew is trying to sacrifice any Jew but himself. This should progress to some criminal Jews considering ratting out other criminal Jews in exchange for police protection, and if this starts happening, then it won’t be long before the Jewish crime network is destroyed.

The criminals among them quickly entered the Israeli underworld and made their presence known by investing their laundered wealth in Israeli real estate, businesses and banks. By all accounts, Israel has become a haven for the Mafiya and a base for their international operations. Mob moguls are in residence as respected businessmen. Jonathan Winer, a former State Department expert, states categorically that, “There is not a major Russian organized crime figure whom we are tracking who does not carry an Israeli passport.”

The Brighton Beach Boys. In the 1970s more than 40,000 Russian Jews settled in Brighton Beach, a former working-class Jewish neighborhood in Brooklyn, New York. One of those immigrants was Marat Balagula, who was born in Orenburg, Russia, in 1943. Once settled in Brighton Beach, he turned the Organizatsiya, the local mob, into a very profitable transnational criminal society. His most spectacular success was in the gasoline bootlegging business. Marat gained control of fourteen gas stations, formed two fuel dealerships and proceeded to buy gas from a corporation owned by the Nayfeld brothers. This setup provided a scheme to avoid paying billions of dollars of gasoline taxes.

The scam worked as follows: Taxes were collected at the pump. Instead of turning the cash over to the government, the money was pocketed and disappeared without knowledge of the IRS. A number of shell distributorships were the key. One of these companies would purchase a shipment of gasoline and then make a number of paper transfers. At the end of the blizzard of paper would be a dummy company that was required to pay the taxes to the IRS. Instead, the company sold the gas at cut-rate prices to independent retailers with a phony invoice, stamped “All Taxes Paid.” By the time the IRS came looking for the taxes due, the revenue agents were stymied by a twisting paper trail that lead to a dead end. There was no one person or company that could be held accountable for the non-payment.

The scam became the biggest tax heist in U. S. history. The Russian mobsters by 1985 had stolen as much as $8 billion a year by evading state and federal taxes. Rampant cheating by gas stations had always been a problem, and often ignored. What the Russians did was to raise it from penny-ante chump change to a well-organized and lucrative racket. Shell corporations are frequently used as a means of pocketing what otherwise belongs to the government.

August 8, 2005, Garri Grigorian, a 43-year-old Russian living in Sandy, Utah, was sentenced to 51 months imprisonment and ordered to pay $17.42 million in restitution to the Russian government for his role in laundering over $130 million on behalf of Moscow-based Intellect Bank and its customers through bank accounts located in Sandy, Utah.”

Marat Balagula received an 8-year sentence for credit card fraud and, in 1992, an additional ten years for evading federal taxes on the sale of four million gallons of gasoline. When questioned, he was not forthcoming regarding Russian mob activity in the U.S. ” No,” he insisted, “there is no such thing as the Russian Mafiya. Two or three friends hang out together. That’s a Mafiya?”

At first, investigators recognized Russian crime as a growing problem, but not an organized one. Food stamp scams and the like were treated as isolated cases committed by street criminals, who were not mobbed-up in mafia-like relationships. Further investigations were to reveal that the Brighton Beach boys did in fact constitute a criminal enterprise, and had corrupted the local cops who were on their payrolls so that were able to act freely and openly without threat of arrest. “Cops in cheap suits who looked like gangsters worked the door as bouncers and sat at the front tables in Russian mob joints.”

”Nobody takes the Russian Jewish mob seriously,” said a NYPD detective. “The lack of interest of law enforcement has given them time to grow.” A major roadblock was the super sensitivity to the Jewish aspect of émigré crime. The Jewish leaders worried that the resulting negative publicity from acknowledging the existence of Russian Jewish mobsters, of which there were an estimated 5000 in the New York metro region, would foster a wave of anti-Semitism.

“The Mafiya dominates Russia, and has Eastern Europe in a bear hug. It is also turning Western Europe into its financial satrapy, and the Caribbean and Latin America have quickly become sandy playpens for coke and weapons’ deals with Colombian drug lords. There are few nations where the Russian mob does not hold some influence, making efforts to combat it ever more difficult.”

Stop the theives| 7.25.09 @ 11:25AM

repeal the Federal Reserve Banking Act of 1913 nearly every year. It's always defeated, the media remains silent, and the public never learns the truth. The same bankers who own the FED control the media and give huge political contributions to sympathetic members of Congress (Reference 12, P. 155-163, Reference 22, P. 158, 159, 166).

THE FED FEARS THE POPULATION WILL BECOME AWARE OF THIS FRAUD AND DEMAND CHANGE

We, the People, are at fault for being passive and allowing this to continue.

Rep. Louis T. McFadden (R. Pa.) rose from office boy to become cashier and then President of the First National Bank in Canton Ohio. For 12 years he served as Chairman of the Committee on Banking and Currency, making him one of the foremost financial authorities in America. He fought continuously for fiscal integrity and a return to constitutional government (Reference 1). The following are portions of Rep. McFadden's speech, quoted from the Congressional Record, pages 12595-12603:

"THE FEDERAL RESERVE BOARD, A GOVERNMENT BOARD, HAS CHEATED THE GOVERNMENTOF THE UNITED STATES AND THE PEOPLE OF THE UNITED STATES OUT OF ENOUGH MONEY TO PAY THE NATIONAL DEBT.

The depredations and the iniquities of the Federal Reserve Board and the Federal Reserve banks acting together have cost this country ENOUGH MONEY TO PAY THE NATIONAL DEBT SEVERAL TIMES OVER."

About the Federal Reserve banks, Rep. McFadden said, "They are private credit monopolies which prey upon the people of the United States for the benefit of themselves and their foreign customers; foreign and domestic speculators and swindlers; the rich and predatory money lenders. This is an era of economic misery and for the reasons that caused that misery, the Federal Reserve Board and the Federal Reserve banks are fully liable."

On the subject of media control he state, "Half a million dollars was spent on one part of the propaganda organized by those same European bankers for the purpose of misleading public opinion in regard to it."

Rep. McFadden continued, "Every effort has been made by the Federal Reserve Board to conceal its power but the truth is the Federal Reserve Board has USURPED THE GOVERNMENT OF THE UNITED STATES. IT CONTROLS EVERYTHING HERE AND IT CONTROLS ALL OUR FOREIGN RELATIONS. IT MAKES AND BREAKS GOVERNMENTS AT WILL.

No man and no body of men is more entrenched in power than the arrogant credit monopoly which operates the Federal Reserve Board and the Federal Reserve banks. These evil-doers have robbed this country of more than enough money to pay the national debt. What the Government has permitted the Federal Reserve Board to steal from the people should now be restored to the people."

"Our people's money to the extent of $1,200,000,000 has within the last few months been shipped abroad to redeem Federal Reserve Notes and to pay other gambling debts of the traitorous Federal Reserve Board and the Federal Reserve banks. The greater part of our monetary stock has been shipped to foreigners. Why should we promise to pay the debts of foreigners to foreigners? Why should American Farmers and wage earners add millions of foreigners to the number of their dependents? Why should the Federal Reserve Board and the Federal Reserve banks be permitted to finance our competitors in all parts of the world?" Rep. McFadden asked.

"The Federal Reserve Act should be repealed and the Federal Reserve banks, having violated their charters, should be liquidated immediately.

All,
As you can see, all this banter is really getting us nowhere!
We can sit here and waste our valuable time debating this ad nauseam which will accomplish nothing, or heed the words of our forefathers, who by the way have far more experience at fighting and defeating socialist attacks on our freedom:

Take time to deliberate, but when the time for action arrives, stop thinking and go in. --Andrew Jackson

While we debate, the socialist leftists are passing laws to rob you of your freedoms! They want us to continue debating and arguing this because they know as long as we're willing to waste our efforts in trying to convince people, who will never get it by the way, we are not taking a proactive role in stopping the attack on our freedom and liberty.

If you are as tired of the debate as I am , and are ready to "Stand Up for Freedom" once again in America, PLEASE: check out T.E.A.M. America
on facebook. I know many may by weary of FB but is was the fastest way to get the word out and begin growing our numbers. We are working on a website which, with Gods grace, be up soon.

Here is T.E.A.M. America's
"Constitutional Spirit"

"We find these truths to be NON-NEGOTIABLE",
and we will defend the true Spirit of Freedom & Liberty with a force equal to that, which is forced upon us by any “form of distorted, bastardized illegitimate government” which would try to “separate the text from historical background”, “pervert and subvert the Constitution”. “Create debts greater than can be paid off during the course of its own existence”. “Take away from those who are willing to work and give to those who would not”. Create “laws legal for the government but illegal for the citizenry”. Allow “private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation then by deflation”. “Waste the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them”. “Promises to govern well, but means to govern. Promises to be good masters, but means to be masters”. “Use the Constitution as an instrument for the government to restrain the people, rather than an instrument for the people to restrain the government”. “Take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned”.

“Our constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate for the government of any other”. “The Constitution only guarantees the American people the right to pursue happiness. You have to catch it yourself”. “The policy of the American government is to leave their citizens free, neither restraining nor aiding them in their pursuits”. “On every question of construction of the Constitution, let us carry ourselves back to the time when the Constitution was adopted, recollect the spirit manifested in the debates, and instead of trying what meaning may be squeezed out of the text, or invented against it, conform to the probable one in which it was passed”. “An elective despotism (absolute power or control) is no longer a government we will support”.

T.E.A.M. America:
"Patriot's Creed"

1.) We believe God grants liberty only to those who love it, and are ready to guard and defend it.

2.) We believe if a law is unjust, a man is not only right to disobey it, he is obligated to do so.

3.) We believe it is our patriotic duty to protect our country from its government

4.) We believe it is proper to take alarm at the first experiment upon our liberties. We hold this prudent jealousy to be the first duty of citizens and one of noblest character.

5.) We, the freemen of America, will not wait until usurped power strengthens itself by exercise and entangles the question in precedents. We see all the consequences in the principle, and will avoid the consequences by denying the principle.

6.) We believe no country can preserve its liberties, if it's rulers are not
warned from time to time, that “We the People” preserve the spirit of
resistance.

7.) We believe the tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time.

8.) We believe the liberties of our country, the freedom of our civil Constitution, are worth defending at all hazards.

9.) We believe the ultimate authority...resides in the people alone.

Names who write AS all Jews| 7.26.09 @ 2:42PM

When I first spoke to a close Christian friend of mine about the publishing of Tony Bushby's The Bible Fraud, her reaction was one that many Christians have expressed, and one that made me aghast. She didn't want the book available because it would "persuade them away from the Bible and the word of God." Further discussions with her and many other Christians around the world about The Bible Fraud all result in the Bible being quoted as the ultimate reference for the apparent "words of God," and therefore the basis for their arguments. The problem lies in that they believe the Bible is infallible.

If we examine the oldest known Bible to date, the "Sinai Bible" housed in the British Museum (I believe that, during his many years of research, Tony had a private viewing of this priceless book), we find a staggering 14,800 differences from today's Bible and yet it still remains the word of God?

As Tony points out, the history of our 'genuine' Bibles is a convoluted one. Firstly we cannot be sure that we have the full version as it was originally intended. In 1415 the Church of Rome took an extraordinary step to destroy all knowledge of two second century Jewish books that it said contained the true name of Jesus Christ. The Antipope Benedict XIII firstly singled out for condemnation a secret Latin treatise called "Mar Yesu" and then issued instructions to destroy all copies of the book of Elxai. The Rabbinic fraternity once held the destroyed manuscripts with great reverence for they were comprehensive original records reporting the life of Rabbi Jesus.

Later, Pope Alexander VI ordered all copies of the Talmud destroyed, with the Spanish Grand Inquisitor Tomas de Torquemada (1420-98) responsible for the elimination of 6,000 volumes at Salamanca alone.

Solomon Romano (1554) also burnt many thousands of Hebrew scrolls and, in 1559, every Hebrew book in the city of Prague was confiscated. The mass destruction of Jewish books included hundreds of copies of the Old Testament and caused the irretrievable loss of many original handwritten documents.

The oldest text of the Old Testament that survived, before the discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls" was said to be the Bodleian Codex (Oxford), which was dated to circa 1100 AD. In an attempt by the church to remove damaging Rabbinic information about Jesus Christ from the face of the earth, the Inquisition burnt 12,000 volumes of the Talmud.

In 1607, forty-seven men (some records say fifty four) took two years and nine months to re-write the Bible and make it ready for press. It was, by the order of King James, issued with a set of personal 'rules' the translators were to follow. Upon its completion in 1609, it was handed over to the King James for his final approval. However, "It was self evident that James was not competent to check their work and edit it, so he passed the manuscripts onto the greatest genius of all time... Sir Francis Bacon"

The first English language manuscripts of the Bible remained in Bacon's possession for nearly a year. During that time ... "he hammered the various styles of the translators into the unity, rhythm, and music of Shakespearean prose, wrote the prefaces and created the whole scheme of the Authorized Version. At the completion of the editing, King James ordered a 'dedication to the King' to be drawn up and included in the opening pages. He also wanted the phrase 'Appointed to be read in the churches' to appear on the title page.

The King James Bible is considered by many today to be the 'original' Bible and therefore 'genuine' and all later revisions simply counterfeits forged by 'higher critics'. Others think the King James Bible is 'authentic' and 'authorized' and presents the original words of the authors as translated into English from the 'original' Greek texts. However, as Tony points out, the 'original' Greek text was not written until around the mid fourth century and was a revised edition of writings compiled decades earlier in Aramaic and Hebrew. Those earlier documents no longer exist and the Bibles we have today are five linguistic removes from the first bibles written. What was written in the 'original originals' is quite unknown. It is important to remember that the words 'authorized' and 'original', as applied to the Bible do not mean 'genuine', 'authentic' or 'true'.

By the early third century, it became well noted that a problem was occurring . politics! In 251AD, the number of Presbyter's (roving orator or priest) writings had increased dramatically and bitter arguments raged between opposing factions about their conflicting stories. According to Presbyter Albius Theodoret (circa 255), there were "more than two hundred" variant gospels in use in his time. In 313, groups of Presbyters and Biscops (Bishops) violently clashed over the variations in their writings and "altar was set against altar" in competing for an audience and territory.

When Emperor Constantine conquered the East in 324, he sent his Spanish religious advisor, Osius of Cordoba, to Alexandria with letters to several Biscops exhorting them to make peace among their own. But the mission failed and Constantine, probably at the suggestions of Osius, then issued a decree commanding all Presbyters and their subordinates "be mounted on asses, mules and horses belonging to the public and travel to the city of Nicaea" in the Roman province of Bithymia, the country of Asia. The Presbyters were instructed by the Emperor to bring with them the manuscripts from which they orated to the rabble (that's us!) "wrapped and bound in leather".

Constantine saw in this developing system of belief the opportunity to make a combined state religion and protect it by law. The first general church council was thus convened and the year was 325.

On 21 June, the day of the Summer Solstice, (and under those cult conditions) a total of 2048 "presbyters, deacons, sub-deacons, acolytes and exorcists" gathered at Nicaea to decide what Christianity really was, what it would be, what writings were to be used and who was to be it's God.

Ancient church evidence established that a new 'god' was to be approved by the Roman Emperor and an earlier attempt (circa 210) to deify either Judas Khrestus or his twin brother Rabbi Jesus (or somebody else) had been 'declined'. Therefore, as late as 325, the Christian religion did not have an official god.

After a long and bitter debate, a vote was finally taken and it was with a majority show of hands that Judas Khrestus and Rabbi Jesus both became God (161votes for and 157 votes against). The Emperor effectively joined elements of the two individual life stories of the twin brothers into a singular creation. The doctrine of the Celtic / British church of the west was democratically attached to the Presbyters stories of the east.

A deification ceremony was then performed 'Apotheosis'. Thus the deified ones were then called 'saviours' and looked upon as gods. Temples, altars, and images with attributes of divinity were then erected and public holidays proclaimed on their birthdays.

Following the original example set by the deification of Caesar, their funerals were dramatized as the scene of their resurrection and immortality. All these godly attributes passed as a legal right to Emperor Constantine's new deity, Jesus Christ.

The Emperor then instructed Bishop Eusebius to compile a uniform collection of new writings "bound together as one" using the stories from the large collection of Presbyters as his reference source. Eusebius was to arrange for the production of "fifty sumptuous copies ... to be written on parchment in a legible manner, and in a convenient portable form, by professional scribes thoroughly accomplished in the art". This was the first mention of finished copies of a Christian 'New Testament' in the history of mankind.

As one can imagine, to condense the real life of the Jesus Christ, the Church and His teachings with supporting evidence into a short article is very difficult. It is therefore wise for those who wish to have supportable evidence to read and study Tony Bushby's epic work, The Bible Fraud, along with it's detailed blood lines (family trees) and over 869 references. (see www.thebiblefraud.com)

However, attempting to summarize what Tony has written..... in 325 AD, the first Christian council was called at Nicaea to bring the stories of twin brothers, Jesus 'the Rabbi' and Judas Khrestus into one deity that we now know as Jesus Christ. Tony says they were not born of virgin birth but to Nabatean Arab Mariamne Herod (now known as the Virgin Mary) and fathered by Tiberius ben Panthera, a Roman Centurion. The brothers were raised in the Essene community and became Khrists of their faith. Rabbi Jesus later was initiated in Egypt at the highest of levels similar to the 33rd degree of Freemasonry of which many Prime ministers and Presidents around the world today are members. He then later married three wives, one of whom we know as a Mary Magdalene, a Druidic Princess, stole the Torah from the temple and moved to Lud, now London.

Tony believes the reason Jesus stole the Torah was that he said it contained "a very special secret", which he was going to reveal that secret to the world. He was stoned to death and the Torah taken from him before he could.

The elder brother, Judas Khrestus, with his "Khrestian" followers conspired to take the throne of Rome, his royal birthright, and was captured, tried, and was sentenced to be crucified. (The "Khrestians" and the Essenic army, the Nazarenes, would today be likened to terrorists.) At the trial, Judas exercised his royal birthright to have a replacement in Simon of Cyrene (Luke 23:41) and then was sold as a slave to live out his days as a carpenter in India.

Rabbi Jesus spent a considerable amount of time at the Palace of the British in Rome and sometime around 48 AD, he left for Egypt to pursue his greatest esoteric goal. The spiritual knowledge from his secret education in the Essene and Druid movements was soon to be elevated to the highest level possible - initiation into the innermost rite of the Egyptian temples.

It was probable that Rabbi Jesus' earlier initiation into both the Essene and Druid schools played a major part in his acceptance into the Egyptian school. The Druids could claim a very early origin and the essence of their wisdom was also that of the Essenes. In the case of the Essenes, it is possible to show that their movement was specifically established to preserve secret information, for they knew and used the sacred writing of the Initiates. The full meaning of the point being made by Bushby is that in the case of all Secret Schools, the inner and ultimate Mystery was revealed only to a High Initiate.

Those who were initiated into the Ancient mysteries took a solemn oath never to reveal what had passed within the sacred walls. Every year only a comparatively few Egyptian initiations were conducted, and the number of persons who knew their secrets was never at any time large. The initiations always took place with the onset of darkness and the candidate was entranced for periods of varying length, depending upon the level of the degree for which he had entered.

The first initiatory step involved a forty-day procedure that basically involved purification, not only in physical form, but dissolving all tendencies to evil thoughts, purifying the mind as well. It appears that he would have fasted, alternatively on vegetables, juices and very special herbal concoctions.

The New Testament recorded that this happened to Rabbi Jesus who "was led into the desert.... and he fasted forty days and forty nights" (Matt. 4:1-2).

This trial period involved more than just fasting. During the forty days and nights' ordeal, Tony says the candidate was required to study astronomical charts to supplement his skills in astronomy and memorize charts of the heavens. They were also given a particular ritual from which to memorize certain passwords, secret signs and handclasps, skills that are still practiced to this day in Freemasonry.

These initiations were not limited to Egypt. The ancient civilizations inherited these Mysteries from a remote antiquity and they constituted part of a primitive revelation from the gods to the human race. Almost every people of pre-Christian times possessed its institution and tradition of the mysteries. The Romans, the Druids of Britain, the Greeks, the Cretans, the Syrians, the Hindus, the Persians, the Maya and the American Indians, among others, had corresponding temples and rites with a system of graduated illuminations for the initiates.

The modern world knows little of these ancient rites yet they were conducted in a huge variety of buildings the world over.

Jewish theft and FRAUD| 7.26.09 @ 2:56PM

Fraud in the Bible
or
It Sucks That You Don't Know Hebrew, Greek or Aramaic
http://www.mksmith.org/

What is Pious Fraud?

Pious fraud was a common technique employed by early Christian writers to make a point. Their intention was to convert anyone and everyone by any means available. One of the more persuasive methods was to write a text and falsely tell others that it was written in first person. For example, the four canonized gospel tales were not written by Matthew, Mark, Luke or John. That has been a well known fact for about 200 years. And to this day, no one knows who the gospel stories were written by. These texts are perfect examples of pious fraud. Pious fraud is the foundation of the deception known as Christianity and it continues to this day.

During the first couple of centuries of the Common Era the early Christian priest craft, which would eventually become the early Catholic fathers, were in the process of assimilating religions from all over Europe. Ultimately the new religion become known as the Christian religion, or more accurately The Catholic Church. The Bible was put together by hundreds of people who were either at the head of the fraud or were pawns in its assembly. Once the original languages were translated into Latin, it was only a matter of time before the original language nuances could be discarded. Ever wonder why it was punishable by death to read the Bible during the Middle Ages? Punishable by death by the common folk to read it, that is. Well, the reason was that the priest craft was well aware of the errors, inconsistencies and flat-out lies that riddled the Bible. If the common man found out, it could have been the death of the Church's authority, power and control over the masses. And since the original languages are rarely, if ever, used by those who read the Bible (well, those who actually READ it), the fraud is perpetuated.

When a pious fraud is knowingly perpetuated in the name of power and money, you have deception. Remember, 1700-2000 years ago, when these texts were being assembled into a 'new testament', the vast majority of humanity was illiterate. Science was not known. Demons rules the world. Anything could be put forth and said to be 'absolute truth' when it was in fact, completely fraudulent.

What is the implication of this? The implication is self-evident. The story of Genesis, that Christian proselytizers love to advance (althou it is part of the much older Jewish texts), is a complete and utter forgery. In that story we are led to believe that there was a single god who created the earth, etc. in 6 days. Not only has science proven the timeline to be completely false, the religious aspect is a complete fabrication. At the time that the Genesis story was supposed to have been written the Hebrew people were not monotheistic. That's history. They believed in many gods and Genesis proves it. The story actually goes back to before the Hebrews were a distinct people-it is not Hebrew in origin.

Pious Fraud in Translation

Let's take a look at the very first words of the book of Genesis. Note very carefully that the Hebrew culture, at the time of this writing, was not monotheistic, but rather, polytheistic. Will your priest, minister or preacher tell you that? No. But you can find out for yourself with a simple dictionary.

The Hebrew word for God is el; the plural is elohim, gods. What is the first sentence in the Bible?

"In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth" (Gen. 1:1).

Here is Genesis 1:1 in Hebrew (transliterated into the Latin alphabet, of course):

"Bereshith bara elohim," etc.,

"In-beginning created (the) gods (the) heavens and (the) earth."

In the same chapter the word "elohim" (gods) is used thirty times., Those gods are the ones who created the 'universe' in 6 days.

To clarify, here is the translation of the Hebrew text of Genesis 1. Notice how Jewish and Christian 'fathers' don't bother to tell you what the original text says. They would like you to believe that a single god created everything. But, they messed up big time and actually translated it properly. In plain English, the translation reads 'let us make man in our image':

Here are three examples of the Hebrew plural gods mentioned in Genesis: 1. "And-said elohim (gods), let-US-make man (adam) in-image-OUR, after-likeness-OUR" (1:26).

2. And when "adam" had eaten of the forbidden fruit of the tree of knowledge, "the Lord God" said, "Behold, the-man has become like one of US, to know good and evil" (3:27).

3. And when the Tower of Babel was being built: "The Lord [Heb. Yahveh] said ... Come, let US go down," etc.

Elohim

When speaking of the Hebrew deity, Yahveh, elohim, (gods) is used in the Hebrew texts, The plural elohim is used 2570 times. It is always falsely translated to the singular "God", thus falsely making us believe that this text was written at a time when the Hebrew people were monothestic, when it clearly is the case (written at least 2570 times, no less!) that they WERE NOT.

In the three Genesis verses above, there are three different designations of the Hebrew deity or deities: elohim, (gods), falsely translated "God":

Lord God (Heb. Yahveh-elohim); and Lord (Heb. Yahveh). Yahveh is the proper name of the Hebrew God, which, in English, is Jehovah.

Yahveh-elohim is a Hebrew "construct-form" which is translated to "Yahveh-of-the-gods." Invariably these personal names were falsely translated "Lord" and "Lord God," respectively, for purposes of pious fraud.

First Man, First Woman

There was no first man "Adam," according to the Hebrew text. The word adam in Hebrew is a common noun, meaning man in a generic sense and in Genesis 1:26, it states:

"And elohim (gods) said, Let us make adam (man)"; and so "elohim created ha- adam (the-man); ... male and female created he them" (1: 27).

In the second creation story, where man is first made alone:

"Yahveh formed ha-adam (the-man) out of the dust of ha-adamah-the ground" (2:7).

Man is called in Hebrew adam because he was formed out of adamah, the ground; just as in Latin man is called homo because he was formed from humus, the ground. Early Christian father Lactantius stated it as 'homo ex humo' ('man from the ground', or 'dust' as it commonly stated today).

The forging of the name Adam from the Hebrew noun adam into a mythical proper name Adam, was after the so-called Exodus. The fraud in the forging of fictitious genealogies from "in the beginning" to Father Abraham.

And this wasn't done by Christians, but rather by early Hebrew priests. Nonetheless, early Christians took this deception and used it for their own newly forged religion.

Who has a Soul?

In Genesis 1 is the account of the creation of the elohim-gods-on the fifth day, of "nephesh hayyah" which is "the moving creature that hath life," and of "nephesh hayyah-every living creature" out of the waters (1:20, 21); and on the sixth day of "nephesh hayyah-the living creature" out of the ground (1:24); and he gave to ha-adam-the-man dominion over "kol nephesh hagyah-everything wherein there is life," (1:30.)

The Hebrew text states that all animal living creatures are by God called "nephesh hayyah," literally "living soul".

In Chapter 2 is the history of ha-adam made from ha-adamah; and, in contrast to these lowly "living creatures" (nephesh hayyah), Yahveh-clohim "breathed into his nostrils nishmath hayyim -- (living breaths), and ha-adam became nephesh hayyah-a living soul". (2:7)

In Hebrew everywhere you read the word nephesh it simply means soul, and hayyah (living) is the feminine singular adjective from hai, life.

In the original Hebrew texts, Man was created exactly the same as the other animals. All had or were 'nephesh hayyah' or living souls.

Remember, tho, that the reason there are two creation stories is because two culture's stories of creation were woven together by the early Hebrew priest craft.

Unknown scribes, in translation, made animals merely creatures, and "Creation's masterpiece, Man," became a "living soul." They falsely altered these plain words so as to deceive us into believing a special God-breathed soul is in man which is completely different from animal that merely perishes to dust.

The implication of this is that someone has fraudulently decided that we are a special creation that has a soul, and eliminated the actual words of what Genesis says. Now all other animals don't have a soul. According to the story, all things that live have a soul. So what happened here? Forgery. That's what happened.

Chalk one up for vegetarians.

There Was No Continuous Hebrew Monotheistic Culture

When Yahveh appeared to Moses in the Burning Bush, and announced himself as "the God of thy fathers," he was a total stranger to Moses. How do I know? Read the account. It doesn't take a scholar to read where Moses ASKS who's taking. No, Moses wasn't merely surprised at the voice…he simply didn't know what was going on. (The fact that Moses is just a rehash of the Egyptian Mises is another essay altogether. But for the purposes of this essay, I'm pretending that Moses was a real person.)

Moses did not know this Yahveh, and had never heard of him. So that he asked, "What is thy name?" -so that he could report it to the people back home in Egypt, who had never heard it. After some intermission, the God came directly to the point, and declared-here are the exact words-one of the most notorious falsities in the Hebrew text:

"And elohim spake unto Moses, and said unto him., anoki Yahveh -- I am the Lord!

"And I appeared unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, by the name of el-shaddai, but by my name Yahveh (JEHOVAH) was I not known to them." (Ex. 6:2, 8.)

The Hebrew God for the first time since the world began, is "revealed" to mankind the "ineffable name" of Yahveh, here first appearing in the Bible translations, and there printed as JEHOVAH in capital letters; for more vivid and awe-inspiring impression.

But this is a notorious lie-since we known that Moses did not write the first five books of the Hebrew text.

In Genesis 2:4, the name YAHVEH first appears; "in the day that Yahveh-elohim made the earth and the heavens." Its first recorded use as a mystical personage, was when Eve "conceived, and bare Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from Yahveh-the Lord." (Gen. 4:1.)

The personal name YAHVEH occurs in the Book of Genesis one hundred and fifty-six times. It's spoken dozens of times by Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, as any one can read in Genesis. Every single time that the title "the Lord" and "the Lord God" appears, it is a false translation by the priests for the Hebrew personal name YAHVEH.

Throughout the Hebrew "scriptures" it occurs thousands of times: "The sacred name occurs in Genesis ~156 times; and is found in the Old Testament approximately 6000 times, either alone or in along with another Divine name."

More exactly, the Tetragrammaton (YHVH), appears in the Old Testament 6823 times as the proper name of God as the God of Israel. As such it serves to distinguish him from the gods of the other nations." Thus was the Hebrew tribal god YAHVEH distinguished from Bel, and Chemosh, and Dagon, and Shamash, and the dozens of "gods of the nations". Just as James would distinguish his name from Rudolph, or Cary, this was precisely the Hebrew usage-to distinguish one heathen god from another.

And this the pious translators, foisting their fraud on us, sought to hide, giving names to all the "other gods," but suppressing a name for the Hebrew deity, who as "the Lord," or "the Lord God," was high and unique, "a god above all gods," -the one and only true God-thru the use of a tetragrammaton.

But yet a more malicious and evil-intentioned deception, 6828 times, is the name of the Hebrew God concealed by false rendition for the deliberate purpose of forging the whole Hebrew texts, as translated, into a semblance of harmony with the false declaration of Exodus 6:3, that "by my name YAHVEH was I not know unto them."

Search as one may, outside Exodus 6:3, the god-name YAHVEH (Jehovah) is never to be found in the translations, except in Psalm 78:18, and Isaiah 12:2 and 26:4. (But they are irrelevant for this discussion because those passages were written well after the original 5 books were forged.)

The false translations thus "make truth to be a liar," the lie of Exodus 6:3 to seem the truth; and a barbarous heathen tribal god among a hundred neighbor and competitive gods to be the nameless One Lord God of the Universe. For more on this tribal god, you can read

Who is this Jehovah and Where Does He Live?

What does this imply? It implies this: the Hebrew-Christian-One-God is a patent forgery and myth; a mythological Father-god can have no "only begotten Son"; Jesus Christ is a myth even before he is mythically born by the forged whimsy of the early Christian 'fathers'.

A Few Translations

These translations, while only three in number, will change your whole way of thinking about what is being presented in your Bible.

Son of Man: In all three major Semitic languages (Aramaic, Hebrew, and Arabic) the term barnasha means "human being". Jesus often referred to himself as a human being (28 times in the Gospels). Barnasha comes from bar (son) and nasha (man). The meaning of barnasha has created a lot of confusion in the Gospels. It is impossible to translate the Aramaic term of barnasha literally as "son of man" - and yet most biblical translators have and still do just that to this day. In the Aramaic language the word bar is combined with many other words to create different meanings - most specifically is means a "likeness." For example barabba means "resembles his father". Barhila translated literally would mean "son of power" but in reality it means "soldier". So when we read in the Gospels the phrase "son of man" it should be read correctly as "human being".

Son of God: The word bar means a likeness or resemblance to the suffix word. The Aramaic term that Son of God comes from is bardalaha. Translated literally as "son of God" it does not mean this. Bardalaha in reality means "like God" or "God-like". So when Jesus is referred to as the "Son of God" we should read this correctly as "God-like" or "like God". So what does that tell you about the translation we read in today's Bibles? It tells you that Jesus was not the Son of God - but that he was "God-like". There is a big difference. Jesus himself repeatedly referred to himself as a "human being". The Aramaic reference does not mean one is physically divine - it means there is an important spiritual relationship between God and the man whom is bestowed that phraseology. In addition, don't forget that the Council of Nicea in 325 CE voted to change the human Jesus to a supernatural being. It wasn't until that time that any church thought of Jesus as such.

Only Begotten Son: The world ehedaya is Aramaic. It is very important to understand its meaning when hearing that phrase being bantered about. When we read that Jesus was God's "only begotten son" - it is an incorrect translation of the Aramaic word. The term is found exclusively in the Gospel of John. The phrase we read in English was translated from a Greek word, monogenes. Monos means "single" or "one" and genos means "kind". So the Greek translation originally was with "one-of-a-kind". So where does 'begotten' come from? The Greek word genos is distantly related to the verb gennan which means "to beget". Thus, to translate monogenes as "only begotten" is improper and incorrect--which is an indication of an ill-trained translator being involved with the text. The actual translation should be "unique son" or "one-of-a-kind". The Aramaic word ehedaya means "sole heir" and "the beloved". So when we combine monogenes ehedaya we get "one-of-a-kind, beloved son". That's considerably different from 'only begotten son'.

About the Ku Klux Klan
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Ku Klux Klan is a racist, anti-Semitic movement with a commitment to extreme violence to achieve its goals of racial segregation and white supremacy. Of all the types of right-wing hate groups that exist in the United States, the Klan remains the one with the greatest number of national and local organizations around the country.

More than 40 different Klan groups exist, many having multiple chapters, or “klaverns,” including a few that boast a presence in a large number of states. There are over a hundred different Klan chapters around the country, with a combined strength of members and associates that may total around 5,000.

After a period of relative quiet, Ku Klux Klan activity has spiked noticeably upwards in 2006, as Klan groups have attempted to exploit fears in America over gay marriage, perceived “assaults” on Christianity, crime and especially immigration.

KKK Symbol
Founder: Confederate Civil War veterans Captain John C. Lester, Major James R. Crowe, John D. Kennedy, Calvin Jones, Richard R. Reed, Frank O. McCord
Founded: 1866
Headquarters: Each different Klan group has its own headquarters.
Background: The Klan has fragmented into more than 40 separate factions of varying sizes. There is no “one” Ku Klux Klan.
Estimated size: There are over a hundred different chapters in the various Klan organizations, with varying memberships. Overall, there may be as many as 5,000 members and associates of the Ku Klux Klan. The Klan is strongest in the South and in the Midwest.
Criminal Activity: The Klan has a relatively high association with criminal activity, ranging from hate crimes to acts of domestic terrorism.
Media: Mass mailings, leafleting and the Internet
Strategy: Public rallies and protests, "adopt a highway" programs and other attention getting stunts, Internet
Ideology: White supremacist ideology not far from that of neo-Nazis, although it tends to be more Christian-oriented and to stress nativism.
Affiliations: National Socialist Movement, Aryan Nations, Christian Identity groups
Financial support: Little. Most funding comes from membership dues and sales of Klan paraphernalia.

The Ku Klux Klan first emerged following the Civil War as America’s first true terrorist group. Since its inception, the Ku Klux Klan has seen several cycles of growth and collapse, and in some of these cycles the Klan has been more extreme than in others. In all of its incarnations, however, the Klan has maintained its dual heritage of hate and violence.

A/S Racist number one| 7.26.09 @ 3:40PM

Paranoia as Patriotism:
Far-Right Influences on the Militia Movement

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Aryan Nations
Headquartered near Hayden Lake, Idaho, Aryan Nations is a paramilitary hate group founded in the mid-1970s by Rev. Richard Girnt Butler, now 77 years old. It was formed around Butler's Church of Jesus Christ Christian, one of the several hundred churches affiliated with "Identity," a pseudo-theological hate movement. Identity doctrine maintains that Anglo-Saxons, not Jews, are the Biblical "chosen people," that non-whites are "mud people" on the level of animals, and that Jews are "children of Satan."

Aryan Nations militantly advocates anti-Semitism and the establishment of a white racist state. Although primarily an Identity group, Butler's Aryan Nations reflects a Nazi-like philosophy; Butler himself has praised Hitler. During the 1980s, several of Butler's followers joined members of the neo-Nazi National Alliance and some KKK splinter groups to form a secret organization known as The Order, which planned to overthrow the U.S. government. To raise money for their planned revolution, The Order engaged in a crime spree involving murder, counterfeiting, bank robberies and armored car hold-ups. The group's activities ended with the death of its founder and leader, Robert J. Mathews, in a shootout with Federal agents in December 1984, and the incarceration of many of its members.

As noted, anti-Semitism is a basic tenet of the Aryan Nations ideology. For example, Dennis Hilligoss, the group's state coordinator in Oregon, recently said that "The Jew is like a destroying virus that attacks our racial body to destroy our Aryan culture and purity of our race."

To aid in recruitment efforts, Aryan Nations hosts many racist activits during its summer festivals of hate at Hayden Lake, called the "World Congress of Aryan Nations." At these conferences, Butler's organization has offered courses in urban terrorism and guerrilla warfare. Numerous extremists have addressed Aryan Nations gatherings. John Trochmann, a featured speaker at the 1990 congress, later became a founder and leader of the Militia of Montana.

Slideshow: Slavery connections uncovered
Published: June 26 2009 23:31 | Last updated: June 26 2009 23:31

Legacies of slavery

“Slave Emancipation; or John Bull Gulled out of Twenty Millions”. Documents in the National Archives link two of the City’s most renowned names – NM Rothschild, patriarch of the banking dynasty, and James William Freshfield, founder of City law firm Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer – more closely to slavery than had been previously disclosed. Until now Mr Rothschild’s chief known connection with slavery was helping to end it by lending the UK government £15m of the £20m it used in the 1830s to bail out slave-owners after it abolished slavery – depicted in this cartoon (by CJ Grant and reproduced with permission from the UCL Art Collection).

Rothschild’s Antigua counterclaim for compensation. For 170 years, papers documenting one of England’s darkest periods and showing companies, families and institutions that knowingly benefited from slavery, remained hidden in the National Archives. Nick Draper’s research will form the basis of a project by University College London to list every slave-owner resident in Britain in the 1830s and highlight the companies, art collections and institutions that have links to 19th century colonial slavery. © Daniel Lynch

Rothschild’s Antigua counterclaim for compensation. Among National Archives documents is a claim for £3,000 compensation made by Nathan Mayer Rothschild and his brother Baron James de Rothschild. The documents show the brothers agreed £3,000 owed to Lord James O’Bryen, after the sale of his estate in Antigua, should be secured to NM Rothschild via a mortgage on 88 slaves on the estate. © Daniel Lynch

Asset values. After the man who bought Lord James O’Bryen’s estate went bankrupt, NM Rothschild used the government compensation scheme to claim the £3,000. The documents reveal an inventory of slaves and their estimated values in sterling. The money was awarded to NM Rothschild’s estate after his death in July 1836. © Daniel Lynch

Details of claim. Neither the Rothschild family’s own archive nor Niall Ferguson’s history of the family, reveal Nathan Mayer Rothschild’s claim as a mortgagee of slaves under the compensation system he helped create. In the US, where Rothschild bank is still active, JPMorgan, the investment bank, apologised for its predecessor's history in mortgaging slaves in Louisiana and set up a scholarship fund there. © Daniel Lynch

Freshfield’s St Christopher counterclaim for compensation. The National Archives documents also show how James William Freshfield and his two sons counterclaimed for three groups of slaves in St Christopher. They based the claim on unpaid legal fees in connection with the earlier sale of the estate and its slaves. The claim was eventually withdrawn. © Daniel Lynch

Freshfield's signature on the counterclaim for compensation. Among founders of lawfirms whose successor companies still exist, the Freshfield's name appears most often in the slave compensation records, having successfully collected government bail-out money on 10 claims as trustees, or owners-in-fee of slave estates for a total of 4 clients, according to a parliamentary list of awarded claims. © Daniel Lynch

Particulars of Freshfield’s counterclaim. Uniquely within the records, Freshfields partners also entered a claim for money on behalf of their firm under the compensation scheme for slave-owners as they sought to recoup unpaid legal fees. © Daniel Lynch

Freshfield⬢s counterclaim for three groups of slaves in St Christopher. The claim was based on unpaid legal fees in connection with the earlier sale of the estate and its slaves. The claim states that the firm had a lien on the title deeds for the Belle Tete Estate and the slaves on it and that the firm would not give up the deeds until the outstanding fees had been paid. © Daniel Lynch

Freshfield’s counterclaim. The counterclaim, which was eventually withdrawn, gives a detailed description of Mr Freshfield’s authority as the holder of deeds over an estate and its slaves and his attempt to collect unpaid legal fees using the government system set up to compensate slave-owners sheds new light on the role he played in the slavery. © Daniel Lynch

The GOY | 7.26.09 @ 6:07PM

WE ARE WOLVES
4. The GOYIM are a flock of sheep, and we are their wolves. And you know what happens when the wolves get hold of the flock? ....

5. There is another reason also why they will close their eyes: for we shall keep promising them to give back all the liberties we have taken away as soon as we have quelled the enemies of peace and tamed all parties ....

6. It is not worth to say anything about how long a time they will be kept waiting for this return of their liberties ....

7. For what purpose then have we invented this whole policy and insinuated it into the minds of the GOY without giving them any chance to examine its underlying meaning? For what, indeed, if not in order to obtain in a roundabout way what is for our scattered tribe unattainable by the direct road? It is this which has served as the basis for our organization of SECRET MASONRY WHICH IS NOT KNOWN TO, AND AIMS WHICH ARE NOT EVEN SO MUCH AS SUSPECTED BY, THESE "GOY" CATTLE, ATTRACTED BY US INTO THE "SHOW" ARMY OF MASONIC LODGES IN ORDER TO THROW DUST IN THE EYES OF THEIR FELLOWS.

8. God has granted to us, His Chosen People, the gift of the dispersion, and in this which appears in all eyes to be our weakness, has come forth all our strength, which has now brought us to the threshold of sovereignty over all the world.

9. There now remains not much more for us to build up upon the foundation we have laid.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Return to Table of Contents/ . . .
PROTOCOL No. 12
1. The word "freedom," which can be interpreted in various ways, is defined by us as follows -

2. Freedom is the right to do what which the law allows. This interpretation of the word will at the proper time be of service to us, because all freedom will thus be in our hands, since the laws will abolish or create only that which is desirable for us according to the aforesaid program.

3. We shall deal with the press in the following way: what is the part played by the press to-day? It serves to excite and inflame those passions which are needed for our purpose or else it serves selfish ends of parties. It is often vapid, unjust, mendacious, and the majority of the public have not the slightest idea what ends the press really serves. We shall saddle and bridle it with a tight curb: we shall do the same also with all productions of the printing press, for where would be the sense of getting rid of the attacks of the press if we remain targets for pamphlets and books? The produce of publicity, which nowadays is a source of heavy expense owing to the necessity of censoring it, will be turned by us into a very lucrative source of income to our State: we shall lay on it a special stamp tax and require deposits of caution-money before permitting the establishment of any organ of the press or of printing offices; these will then have to guarantee our government against any kind of attack on the part of the press. For any attempt to attack us, if such still be possible, we shall inflict fines without mercy. Such measures as stamp tax, deposit of caution-money and fines secured by these deposits, will bring in a huge income to the government. It is true that party organs might not spare money for the sake of publicity, but these we shall shut up at the second attack upon us. No one shall with impunity lay a finger on the aureole of our government infallibility. The pretext for stopping any publication will be the alleged plea that it is agitating the public mind without occasion or justification. I BEG YOU TO NOTE THAT AMONG THOSE MAKING ATTACKS UPON US WILL ALSO BE ORGANS ESTABLISHED BY US, BUT THEY WILL ATTACK EXCLUSIVELY POINTS THAT WE HAVE PRE-DETERMINED TO ALTER.

WE CONTROL THE PRESS

ISRAELI SNIPERS KILLING US TROOPS IN IRAQ.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Israeli Snipers Killing US Troops In Iraq

Israeli Snipers Killing
US Troops In Iraq
Source: Joanna Francis and CNN
11-11-6

Anderson Cooper of CNN showed this video of snipers killing U.S. troops in Iraq on his October 18, 2006 show. CNN says it obtained the video from a "representative" of an unnamed "insurgent leader." Bear in mind that Anderson Cooper used to work for the CIA.

Richard Wilson's hypothesis: Israeli soldiers and/or Mossad agents are killing our soldiers in Iraq in order to enrage American troops so that the slaughter continues.

Proof: At the very beginning of this video clip, you see a rifle with a video camera attached to it. This weapon is made by the Rafael company, an Israeli arms manufacturer, that also makes IEDs. If you watch the video all the way through, it explains how this rifle works. CNN stated that the camera used to film these shootings was not a mounted rifle camera. But as you watch the video, you see that with each shot fired, the camera recoils. That would only happen if it were mounted on the rifle. Why is this significant? Because this kind of rifle-camera is extremely sophisticated and not available to your average Iraqi insurgent. I mean, it's not exactly an easily obtainable Saturday night special! Something this sophisticated points to Mossad.

Mossad is a master at false flag operations, e.g., Oklahoma City, the attack on the USS Cole in Yemen, the bombing of the Israeli Embassy in Buenos Aires, the July 7, 2005 London bombings, the 9-11 attacks in New York, the assassination of the Prime Minister in Beirut, the stoking of Muslim riots in France last year, the bombing of the Hassan al-Askari Mosque in Samarra, Iraq, etc.

Israelis freely move among US and UK troops in Iraq, and have access to top-level US intelligence. Until July 2003, the head of all US forces in Iraq and Afghanistan was General Tommy Franks, a Zionist Jew. (He is now on the board of directors for Bank of America.) On November 7, 2006 another Zionist Jew became a principle liaison between Mossad and US forces in Iraq: Major General Richard F. Natonski of the Marine Corps. His title is Deputy Commandant for Plans, Policies and Operations.

Because of this access, the "insurgents" (i.e., Mossad agents) know exactly where US vehicles will be and who will be inside them. This allows them to target for maximum false flag effect.

For example, on July 23, 2005, a detachment of 19 female US Marines was sent to Fallujah to check Iraqi women for bombs. An IED blew up their truck. Two of the young American women were killed, five were critically wounded, and four were captured. The bodies of the four captured women turned up later in a garbage dump with their throats cut. Americans were outraged. Islamic clerics insisted that only Israelis could be so cold-blooded. And who was in charge of US forces in Fallujah at the time? None other than Major General Natonski, the Mossad liaison.

Americans are supposed to believe that rag-tag "insurgents" use IEDs powerful enough to kill three US troops per day, on average. An American soldier even set up a blog on how "Intel" is betraying and targeting US troops. But sometimes Mossad bomb-makers accidentally blow themselves upin Iraq.

According to Richard Wilson, Israeli sniping and IEDs are false flag operations. He says that on March 28, 2005, Americans arrested 19 Mossad agents who fired twice on a US Marine checkpoint. The Marines beat up the Mossad agents and tore off their Star-of-David necklaces. (The US media incorrectly said the agents were Americans.) The Mossad agents said they were employees of Zapata Engineering, which helps the CIA conduct interrogations, and also manages US ammo dumps and US motor pools in Iraq.

IEDs in Iraq are powerful enough to flip over a 70-ton tank. Some of the models shoot depleted-uranium projectiles, and are triggered by electronic devices surreptitiously planted on US armored vehicles. Zapata Engineering (which employs Mossad agents) makes this exact kind of trigger, and oversees some of the US motor pools.

Rumsfeld says the IEDs come from Iran, but Richard says they come from Mossad, and are not "improvised" at all. The Israeli company, Rafael (see above), makes IEDS, which are buried in the middle of a road. Beside the road is a device which emits a laser or radio signal. This device is manufactured by firms like Zapata Engineering, which is controlled by Zionist Jews. The IED mine, manufactured by Israel, is inert until a US vehicle (secretly planted with a triggering device) rolls over it.

Whenever Mossad carries out these false-flag operations they produce a videotape or a recording from an "unnamed source" that is "close to al-Qaeda." Sometimes they say "the claim was posted on an Internet website, but its authenticity could not be verified."

But Israelis would never kill anyone in cold blood, would they? After all, the USS Liberty massacre was "an accident!"

LAWYERS FOR POOR AMERICANS| 9.3.09 @ 1:15PM

~ WHEN THE LAUGH OF $ATAN WA$ HEARD IN THE PEOPLE$ HALLS OF U$ CONGRE$$ ~

THIS OLD WORLD ORDER OF ABUSE AND NEGLECT OF OUR POORER AMERICANS NEEDS ENLIGHTENED POLITICAL MINDS AND HEARTS TO VIEW GOD DIFFERENTLY THEN $$$…. NO MATTER WHAT THEIR POLITICAL PARTY AFFILIATION ???

WHEN WILL OUR WEALTHY ELITE AMERICANS ABATE THEIR ASSAULT ON POORER AMERICANS WITH THEIR MONETARY CONTROL OF OUR IVORY TOWER U.S. CONGRESSIONAL LEADERS OF THE NEW WORLD ORDER ???

THERE ARE NOT MANY MORE DISTRACTIONS LEFT WHICH ARE AVAILABLE FOR OUR WEALTHY ELITE AMERICANS TO HIDE BEHIND IN NOT TAKING PROPER CARE OF ALL OUR AMERICANS IN A HUMANE FASHION !!!

RALPH NADER ATTEMPTED TO EDUCATE AMERICAN VOTERS ABOUT U.S. CORPORATE POWER IN AMERICA AND HOW THEY CONTROL OUR CONGRESSIONAL PEOPLE THROUGH THEIR POCKET BOOK (POLITICAL DONATIONS). * WITHOUT THE DOUGH $$$ THESE U.S. CONGRESSIONAL LEADERS OF THE FREE WORLD DO NOT GET RE~ELECTED TO CONGRESS.*TO STAY IN POLITICAL OFFICE IN AMERICA,ONE HAS TO BARTER YOUR VOTES IN CONGRESS AND REPRESENT POWER INTERESTS IN RETURN FOR THE BUCK$.

POORER AMERICANS HAVE NEVER HAD THE $$$ LOBBY TO INFLUENCE THIS CORRUPT POLITICAL CONCEPT (of horse trading political votes for political contributions) TO ACHIEVE PROPER HEALTH ~CARE OR LEGAL REPRESENTATION FOR ALL OUR MIDDLE ~ CLASS AND WORKING POOR AMERICANS.

AMERICAN IVORY TOWER U.S.CONGRESSIONAL LEADERS OF THE FREE WORLD HAVE PASSED FEDERAL LEGISLATION IN WASHINGTON DC TO SPEND 50 BILLION AMERICAN TAX $$$ ON THE INTERNATIONAL FIGHT AGAINST AIDS OVER THE NEXT FIVE YEARS WHILE THEIR OWN AMERICAN CITIZENS ARE BEING TOLD BY THIS SAME U.S.CONGRESS THAT NATIONAL HEALTH CARE AND PROPER LEGAL REPRESENTATION FOR MIDDLE CLASS AND WORKING POOR CITIZENS IS UNAFFORDABLE.

*** WEALTHY ELITE AMERICANS (WHO ARE ONLY 1% OF OUR USA POPULATION) SADLY ALSO CONTROL HOW OUR U.S.CONGRESS SPENDS THEIR BUDGET TRILLION$ AND HAVE OBVIOUSLY FOUND MORE WORTHY INTERNATIONAL CITIZENS THEN OUR OWN DESPERATE AND NEEDY POOR TO ASSIST !!!

~Poorer Americans Nationwide only get 400 million $$$ per year for legal representation allocated them by CONGRESS~

Middle Class and Working Poor Americans are unable to afford proper legal representation in their Civil, Criminal and Family Courts of law all across America causing tremendous hardships nationwide,but these great minds and callous hearts in our American Congress have found others Worldwide more needy then their own citizens who are being falsely incarcerated,wrongfuly executed,losing their homes or apartments,losing child custody or visitation with their children etc�

Not being afforded proper legal representation by our U.S. Congress has created a total breakdown of the American judicial system for our poorer Americans because the our U.S. Courts punish all of us little people if we are not assisted with proprer legal counsel.*It is a known fact that our average Middle Class and Working Poor Americans without proper legal representation in all of our American Courts of law lose their legal cases to the better financed who are able to afford lawyers.

Lawyers For Poor Americans is now actively in the hunt for International Countries and Leaders Worldwide to help raise 5 Billion Dollar$ for our slighted poorer Americans who have had their own American Congress turn their backs on their desperate needs in not affording them proper legal representation.

Troy Davis and Mumia Abu ~ Jamal are 2 perfect examples of American citizens who never had proper legal representation or defense investigations afforded them by our U.S. Congressional Leaders Of The Free World in their initial criminal trials in (Georgia and Pennsylvania) who might very well have to pay the ultimate price of possibly being completely innocent and falsely executed in the near future.

These two poorer Americans are among tens of thousands of legal cases nationwide that never were afforded proper legal representation or proper defense investigations at their initial trials……**We the public really have no idea if these men are innocent or guilty until they both are given fair legal representation at their new future trials.

Improper murder trials take place in Third World Countries all the time. *** Why should average Middle~Class and Working Poor Americans in the Wealthiest Country Of The World be treated as if they are living a Third World Life Style ??

This is the first of many www International pleas by Lawyers For Poor Americans for other leaders and countries to help raise the needed monie$ to correct these blatant injustices that have been inflicted on poorer Americans for the last few decades.

Lawyers For Poor Americans has many other written articles that can be viewed with any www search engine by our name or our telephone number.

Lawyers For Poor Americans is a www lobby group of volunteers that sing out about the decades old neglect,abuse and injustices being inflicted on our poorer Americans that have become Crimes Against Humanity issues for the International World Court to investigate.

Ahhh, thoughts to think about,
I said to mysaelf I would stay from this blog site, but the error within my mind was not offered, because I wanted to see how deep what i say would cut into the hearts and minds of the people.
So ,I am sorry and I will now open your mind to a truth that is over looked. As we jump up and down placing blam on a race for issues of today, I will direct you to this, As a Nation we have grown devided and weak because of a dollar. The hands off policy of the popy fileds of the Arabic Drug Empire grows strong while we grow week. P
People making $27,000.00 per year was at one time middle class and now they are classed as the poor.
Goverment Officals seek to reach into the pocks of companies and the rich because the poor are broke.
Our war for 9 years is against the Arabic drug Empire, and our Boy Cott that send a message to the diffrent drug empires to join this, states it simple, that we offer nothing to them.
As for Government Officals, that I have blog with, I say , you task me, I could not think as slow as some if I tried.
You have been sworn into office to uphold the Constituti0n And Governing Law within, as a person, voted into office. You have no choice but to honor that Seat.
This Federal Act Security Card in its creation reachs out to help rebuild the lives of people, see how the concept government veiws of the people are not worth investing because of diversity and hate for other races.
Through toptentogo and FASC Concepts we have been approved by over 1021 companies and thousands of people who see into them self as the streingth of what they are, we will build this and we will bring $100 trillion dollars to bare inorder to help rebuild our country and the National Securty Of The People.
How mush longer will this diversity and hate interfer with our goals ? I offer you this, this enemy seek bio. advantage and they will bring death through their empire,and to mankind.
So should we stay stuck in this bloging box of the internet or should we ask why dose this enemy be allowed to grow stronger ? will these words be heard around this world or will they be silenced .....

The Federal Act Security Card

November 9,2009

F.A.S.C. Concepts in and Pay It Forward
As of today we still stand strong and as we move forward we offer the concepts within this web page in the same forum as in the start. We will take the letters of 250 million Americans and build a health care program that is and for the people.
We will take the Federal Act Security Card and place it side by side with the 1900 pages of Bill that is considered to be law.
We will take the 1900 pages of Bill and remove any attempt to force health care in any form, if this force is within this Bill. The idea to put people in jail if they do not submit is not a Reform.
What is the -
Federal Act Security Card merged with what we call ,a Health Care Reform Stimulus Package. The inter facing of the two will build a security on two fronts first and ut most important the people .
2nd., It will build a net work that in it concept is a anti crime / war prevention forum to maintain the National Security Of The United States Of America.

3rd Placed under the protection of the Patriot Act

4th The right for the people to build their own health care with in our Government and charge the Officials Of Government the task of its safe keep.

5th Within the Constitution of the United States Of America , that if a person or a people see e into a issue that is so wrong not is only our right it is our duty.
6th In order to form a more perfect Union it has been suggested that both the Republican and Democrat parties sit down and work out this health care issue. So seeing how this will not be allowed please see Constitutional Law within the sand box concept. It will be found through the link.
7th There is also a merger concept that states that a insurance company that stand alone can not endure heavy medical cost by the cause and effect of several people in the hospital at the same time of inherited illnesses.
The part one of this merger is for insurance to join as one, in order to form a net of protection.
Part 2 would be for the insurance companies to unite with the people and build from there and charge the Officials Of Government the safe keep of this health care merger.
The Filed Of Dreams Concept is based on how to put trust between Government Officials and the People. You will see a payment and tax forum, that is open to the people to vote for and it will in fact remove any forced payment concepts that is not within the Constitution. This concept can also be found at this link

Within the rights given to the people of the United States Of America, F.A.S.C. Concepts now invoke this right to be heard and to openly offer a debate to the Staff in and for The President Of The United States Of America.
Mr. President you was voted into office to be the Commander And Chief Of The Military, to work with the people for Change, to fix a failed system. But not to be the leader of the people, this is not what being a American is all about.

A Health Care Program must be a united effort that says, that in the early days it was created for the better good of mankind, but now it is a way to make money off of the old ,the sick and the dieing.
The issue that has not been focused on is that health care within the hospitals and medical treatment and medication is out of control. And this will continue to climb as this force pay puts companies in harms way to pay more and more to just keep up with the cost. At the same this force pay will put hundreds of people in jail.
Fasc Concepts offers a rollback idea, that is to say the American People will help all who wish to get rich, but not at the cost of the National Security Of The United States. The $1 billion dollars you wish in on year, break it down into a four year to get rich.
Its like this, people helping people is a United Effort and the American People will be more than happy to pay into a Health Care Program that builds for the tomorrow., as long as it is honest and protected from scams.

Ok ,Mr. President are you ready for round 2, because now the people want to read your 1900 pages of Bill before it is passed into law.

FASC
We are still here and still building on ideas...
What is important to remember, these insurance companies need to merge as one and take control of this issue of cost that starts from the builders of of medications, and items used in treatment of the sick and injured. If there is a kind of sir. charge that puts the cost of a,lets say a needle from whole sale of a $ 1.00 to a cost of $2.00, this is a double of the price for profit against the health care troubles we face.
Health Care Companies can help build this United Health Care Forum or sit back and let Government Officials build laws to govern them.
What we wish to show the people is that through this United States effort of this Health Care Reform Stimulus Package we offer is a building block to show why this country is in trouble.
1st. The laws against God by United States Laws...
2nd. The Laws against Country through our United States Flag.
3rd. The Boycott of The Arabic Drug Empire.
4th. The Great China Wall.
5th. The Mini warehouse factories, to strategically place jobs through out this country to cut gas over head and free our country from the Arabic oil companies.
6th. To build the most powerful movement in a anti war / crime prevention of forum that will secure people and the national Security Of The United States.
7th. This being built by people and not through new created Laws Of Control. Will force our Government Officials to work for the people and the secret is what we offer through the Federal Act Security Card, as it merges with this Health Care Forum. As this choice of freedom of a tax forum for health care cost and the freedom of choice of a payment forum through a Health Care Insurance Companies. The building block is so power full through this dollar that through this United Health Care Forum, this system that failed within Government Supervision will now be in control by a supervision of people who see issues that I am not allowed to see.
What I wish to share is that all of the issues I do see and is listed on the net and at our website is the building block that will secure or country from our enemies and bring back the Made In The USA. These things I see is what I have seen for over 40 years of my life and as a child I was deeply touched by the first Laws against God and Country, and I say to you this was our first steps as a Country headed for failure.
This little bit of input is apart of a SCHEMATIC part 2, and it is by far a honest approach to our troubling issues of the 21 st. century within America.
To put it simple on one issue, the Laws against God and Country, Officials of Government and the Courts did not have permission to do such a order.
We are at war against a Drug Empire.
Respect Of the Wall Of China to our west, the wisdom is a part of documented history.
The FASC Card gives back a chance to so many people to build for the tomorrow for their children of poor families.
FASC Concepts is a strategically building block to show the world that we as a people are
{ read-ing } ourself, so that all of which we stood for will once again be and as a people we will live on.

Wow, It was stated that Health care is not a moral issue,hmmmm
Please allow me to share a little story with you. As I watched my mom die from cancer, and Health care Insurance Companies dumped on her as if she was no more than a dog dieing on the side of the road, i dropped from and out of this system for over 30 years, and now because of system failure, the IT, has come into my life. As I watch Government Officials fight over this Health care Dollar, it reminds me of a bright sunny day in Tennessee while on a friends farm and a little bug flew in to the ground, and the chickens went plum off, boy oh boy the scawking and the feathers went shy high, so I reached down and I took this scared little Health Care Bug from Government Officials, and I have it safely in my hands. As I searched for a way to help, I asked God to help me build a Reform that is of a moral building block for the better good of man kind and to rebuild the National Security of the United states Of America. And you would never guess what God has allowed me to see. This little blog statement you will find true,
first;
I wish to give a great big thank you to all my new friends on the Internet for posting FASC Concepts in and for Pay It Forward.
This building block for a honest Health Care Reform has been a great experience and for any one who did not take part, you have truly missed out on what makes Americans Great. This diversity created by Government Officials has failed and now the eyes of 173 million American People watch as now, for the first time Government Officials sit down together as it should be. The out come is yet to be seen. But they know that a anomaly has been created and it is because of the restructuring of The Constitution, The Bill Of Rights, and The Declaration Of Independence, “has been used in it original created forum” as a factor of a peoples right to undo the amendments of Laws that protected Health Care Companies against the People, over a dollar.
And I wish to say i write what is needed in order that some how I can undo all the wrong I have done in hopes that the slate will be wiped clean....
Just because our children do not understand I wish to share this again,
“For days I worked the word diversity in my mind and it came to me that because of this it is not Americas weakness it is our greatest strength. And this is how I will show you.
Constitution-
Bill Of Rights -
The Declaration of Independence-
United under one forum, builds what is called the Trinity of the Protection Of Laws. This is because these Laws were built by people of faith who gave thanks to God for this wisdom. One would have to see and admire the simplicity of the three as one and at the same time they maintain their independence.”

On page 100 at our site is the early stages of what is called A Prime Directive for Health Care, so please drop on by and see 173 million peoples views in and for Health Care. And it should be known that this information on page 100 is true and documented in Law and History.

I had to wait for this Bill to be passed in order to show the Republican Party and GOP and FRC Action that it is the voice of the people that guides the destiny of this Country.
As predicted , the first stages of the Health Care Bill was passed. Why, you ask ? It is because people wish to be seen for their in put of a view and not unite. What is lost is respect with in a concept of { Freedom Of Choice } to be a part of this system or not, with in this Health Care Force Pay Matrix.
What is offered by FASC Concepts is the Freedom Of Choice, because we feel it is unconstitutional to force pay into the failures of Health Care Insurance Companies and then Tax that money. As you can see our elected officials are paying little attention to the public. As I reach out to my computer and I knock , knock, knock on the screen, and I say is there any body out there?
This Health Care issue keeps taking turns and twist that bewilder the mind in thoughts. This $100 trillion dollar system ,as it would seem, I am counting up to $ 8 trillion 682 billion Dollars so far. One guy emailed me and he is up to $27 Trillion dollars.
You see when Harry Reid added a extra ....almost, $2 Trillion dollars in a tax forum, this through my numbers off with the 1 to 3 year spread of taxes.
Lets show you this way seeing how I run out of fingers to count on and I do not feel like taking my shoes off.....
to get a $4 Trillion dollar tax spread, it is based at a 0.25% up to 4 years.
To be able to see the amount taxed in one year as a whole at 50% is around $8.2 Trillion to $8.8 Trillion, please remember according to Government Officials this is to be a spread tax, 3 to 10 years.. There is over 10 thousand companies I have not even got to yet. So lets take this $ 8 trillion 682 billion Dollars and forget about the other figures, reach into your mind and say ,1 to 3 to 10 years Tax against the Health Care System, then take this 10% tax against the almost $4 Trillion Dollars, your factor must be a multiplication. Then you will see this Tax factor as net value of that system. But of course Government Officials will not show the a net value of a system or that one company, this wold make it to easy for the People to follow the Tax Dollar.
Remember this tax dollar does not include the split petition of the tax forum of increases in other areas, in the name of Health Care Reform. This tax forum I, or we can have very little effect against.
As for theses hidden taxes, they are not hidden. They are built into a split petition. They are meant not to be seen, only revealed as the Progressive Capital Tax Forum works the system in order to not over burden the money system. What is lost is trust because Government Officials by considering the public slow witted and as for this Bill, I want to read the Law that is to represent the Bill. This is because one word has a directive and a code and a sentence can lead to a different truth in concept.
So now it begins, the Civil Rights Law Suits and Constitutional Suits. We are not talking just a few law suits we are talking thousands will be filed because of the Freedom Of Choice is taken away and a Tax against money that is not Government Officials Rights to Tax, the Health Care Money for Coverage.
Within our web site we suggested to build a Government Web Site that will show the People the monthly income of this Health Care Dollar and what the dollar is used for. But of Course this can not be allowed this would audit the IRS and Government System.

So, what do you wish to do ? Sit back and complain or unite your voice as one and state that ,{ We believe in the Freedom Of Choice to be a Part Of this Health Care System or not. } We intend to give life to hope to where there is none.

To show the people of the United States that there is a plan to cover the sick and the poor, but to get Government Officials to see is a concept alone.
To help cover the sick and the poor is a FASC Concept that states that to build a Health Care Forum within our Government Institution is a Peoples right to do so and this is Protect Under the Constitution as a Human and Civil Right. So in plan words if the poor and the sick could only afford to pay $5.00 to $10.00 per month this would to bring a balance toward the broken tax system, to add up this number 32 million to 100 million sick and poor people x $5.00 per month. This will place back into the system $116 million $to 500 million dollars per month. The cause and effect of this will reduce the purposed Health Care Tax Forum, to bring about a reduced effect so not to a over burden a system. Take my faith in this and almost all the poor and sick would be happy to pay in and help rebuild the United States failed tax system. Also To bring about a balance of trust lost between the people and Officials.
Under a Federal Health Care Group built by my friends and I. {You see the poor, as you see them}, as for them they see them self not poor, but of a different race of people and environment and have faith it that which was in the past that so many do not have a clue of what God and Country is all about.
Will be up dated today 3/25/2010

Issue 1.

FASC tax and pay in Forum, A Concept to help the Poor and Sick.

FASC Concepts of a guideline of income and a fair payment for the poor to the rich.
CLASS INCOME MONTHLY PAYMENTS

{B} up to $19000.00 per year, EST of monthly cost up to $30.00 per month
{C} up to $12000.00 per year, EST of monthly cost up to $20.00 per month
{D} from 0.00 income to $9000.00 per year / cost up to 0.00 to $10.00 per month
MIDDLE CLASS TO THE POOR
{A} {B} {C} {D} classification based on one person If married policy can be devided or stayed. These are concept numbers to open the mind..............
Submitted by Marh Hidabrand,asked would it not be better to build on , instead of droping off of the {A}{B}{C}
{E} up to $49000.00 per year,EST of monthly cost up to $50.00 per month
{F} up to $59000.00 per year,EST of monthly cost up to $60.00 per month
{G} up to $69000.00 per year,EST of monthly cost up to $70.00 per month
{H} up to $79000.00 per year,EST of monthly cost up to $80.00 per month
{I} up to $89000.00 per year,EST of monthly cost up to $90.00 per month

Need to balance to stay around $200.00 for above income and below $300.00 for the rich ?
The same incentives apply if husband and wife wish to pay separate.
The same incentives apply for the poor, even if all they can pay is $3.95 per month. No one is cut out of the rebuilding of the inter structure of Health care and the USA.
The money is a investment into our further and is to be tax free, just the money paid in.

You may ask: what about Medicare ? {is it not possible to merge Medicare into this concept ?}
With in this movement the {A} {B} {C} {D} will remove health care from a company so that a company can see into the building of other projects and put people back to work.
With the formatted goal of the use of this new concept, to form a more perfect Union within the design of the Health Care program offered, we submitted the up to 2 Trillion dollars per year. This will build a safety net / a buffer to maintain balance.
The billion dollars per year is at a high EST. based at $10.00 x 250 million people. As you can see the numbers above suggest a very high in pack of funds, we can not project a high in pack because dollars are not a constant.
at 100 000 000 million people x 10= $1 000 000 000 billion low ball figures
1 billion x 4 weeks = $4 billion dollars
4 billion x 12 months = $48 billion dollars
so at 100 000 00 the numbers would have to increase to $40.00/per month x $40.00
$40.00 x 48 000 000 000 = $1 220 000 000 000 per year at 100 000 000 people
In the US the progression is:
Hundred - 100
Thousand - 1,000
Million - 1,000,000
Billion - 1,000,000,000
Trillion - 1,000,000,000,000
Quadrillion - 1,000,000,000,000,000
and the interfacing of the FASC Card www.federalactsecuritycard.mysite.com
We need to see into the inter structure of the Presidents concept,without this right we can not help,no matter how much we wish to. It would seem that if you do not play follow the leader on just one concept ,that the door is not really open.
We offer the following concepts and we believe that it will be one that all can respect.

Conservative Blogger Calls For Obama's Assassination On Twitter

Part of this issue may be my fault. Because I am dyslectic I am miss under stood when I write. And it took me over a hour to write this with the help of A.I.. I do not know if Officials used any or part of what I shared but this hate threats is not the way to bring a proper reform to Health Care or into the lost ways of { Government way of thinking. } So join us and share good ideas to help build a forum that will help every body. Just leave a great blog statement.
As I read more of this Health Care Bill 101 I noted it was based on the same concepts as what I offered to the Obama Administration over 7 months ago , but something was left out { because none of these issues released by Officials see into the economic condition at the home. Do not for get why we are in a economic break down of our system. This would be cool if what was offered was used, but hey Guys you left out something .....

A short re- cap, At average for people with Medicare Insurance, from what I have read is some people pay up to $500.00 per month, if insurance companies are forced to cover preexisting conditions at a rate that may increase coverage up to twice its yearly average on a scale that may effect other people coverages in order to maintain a dollar balance? And for the second time, but none of these issues see into the economic condition at the home !

So welcome to FASC Concepts of a Economic Adjustment.
We have got a lot of people who wish to know more about the function of the Federal Act Security Card. The FASC Card is merged with a Health Care Forum for the Poor and the Sick and people who have been impacted by the crash of our system. When we offered to the Obama Administration the concept of a 10% on a yearly income for Health Care Reform , our build blocks was to help the economic effected People Of The United States.
A incentive program that states if you join the FASC and pay in for a certain amount of time you build a capital of a $10,000.00 dollars as a nest egg for you children after you pass away. Also if you pay in for 20 to 40 years and do not use the extra funds paid in the total savings oh, lets say $25,000.00 + the $10,000.00 goes to your family. The $10 thousand can never be touched by illness or Health Care issues, it is a secured amount for investing into a Concept of Country.
As for the concept of the Patriot Act, to protect the Health Care dollars, a guide line of law to bring about a delay of fund being transferred out of this country , in order to give time for Government approval for the transfer of millions of dollar. And to make it a Capital Offense.......
The basic blue print for security of this FASC Card is a 3 part potion, as follows / part a: Windows : a pin number / part b: BIOS a Social Security number and part c : MS Dos a Letter from the alphabet.
Pin number 0000 / SS# 000 00 0000 / Z, what is good about this is when the SS# is applied it could be in coded within the Government system as for a example 000 00 1362 will be in coded and what number you apply will inter face with the hidden SS# ? To put it bluntly If I can build a system that can not be hacked the at home Our Government should be able to.

{ Re- cape }To help cover the sick and the poor is a FASC Concept that states that to build a Health Care Forum within our Government Institution is a Peoples right to do so and this is Protect Under the Constitution as a Human and Civil Right. So in plan words if the poor and the sick could only afford to pay $5.00 to $10.00 per month this would to bring a balance toward the broken tax system, to add up this number 32 million to 100 million sick and poor people x $5.00 per month. This will place back into the system $116 million $to 500 million dollars per month. The cause and effect of this will reduce the purposed Health Care Tax Forum, to bring about a reduced effect so not to a over burden system. Take my faith in this and almost all the poor and sick would be happy to pay in and help rebuild the United States failed tax system. Also To bring about a balance of trust lost between the people and Officials.
Under a Federal Health Care Group built by my friends and I, {You see the poor, as you see them}, as for them they see them self not poor, but of a different race of people and environment and have faith it that which was in the past that so many do not have a clue of what God and Country is all about. Those who you see as poor for most, we do not want to be took care of we wish to prosper so that our children will not be the next generation of the poor.
Will be up dated today 3/25/2010

Issue 1. Re caped in a short version because my little friend did not prof read before she copied and past in to the blogs .........so if Government Officials did take my 10% concept under advisement you all over looked what the purpose is. And do not for get even people who make a great deal of money some have been seriously effected by this system failure of crime and war.....

FASC tax and pay in Forum, A Concept to help the Poor and Sick.

MIDDLE CLASS TO THE POOR
FASC Concepts of a guideline of income and a fair payment for the poor to the rich.
CLASS INCOME MONTHLY PAYMENTS
{A} format for people making up to $29000.00 per year, EST of monthly cost up to $40.00 per month
{B} up to $19000.00 per year, EST of monthly cost up to $30.00 per month
{C} up to $12000.00 per year, EST of monthly cost up to $20.00 per month
{D} from 0.00 income to $9000.00 per year / cost up to 0.00 to $10.00 per month
{A} {B} {C} {D} classification based on one person If married policy can be divided or stayed. These are concept numbers to open the mind..............
{A}{B}{C}
Now for those who do not know of me, my old Health Care page at the health care link on page 2 and 1 you will find the early writings by me, the miss spelled words and I am a bit dyslectic so statements are a bit off track. And for those who did read this information will remember how I struggled to use the Artificial Intelligence of my computer to communicate. I hope that they did use my building block for Health Care, that would be cool.
But there are some issues to work on as in:
#1. Is There A Constitutional Infringement of a Moral Value for Health Care vs. The People { considered Force Pay ? }
#2. Concepts is the Freedom Of Choice, because we feel it is unconstitutional to force pay into the failures of Health Care Insurance Companies and then Tax that money. Even these insurance companies are filing suit.
#3. Should there be a Prime Directive for Health Care Reform that is in the interest for the better good of Man Kind?
#4. Should there be a web site to show the capital gain of the tax income from Health Care and what the money was used for ?
#5. Should children be covered by their parents Health Care Coverage ?
#6. Is the concept offered by us at FASC Concepts to cover the sick a good or bad concept ? I believe this information it is on p26 at the blue pill link , link is on page 100 at the main site.
#7. Abortion ?
#8. Sex Offenders ?
#9. Was there a Unity lost with in Government between parties that made the public feel unsecured ?
#10. Was this diversity with in the people created by the in perfection of conduct by Officials ?
FASC Concepts in and for Pay it Forward covers the web see why we have become the Largest web site in the United States, join us in a trickle effect on p23 the blue pill link, ?
