Winter is slowly melting away here in the U.S., and Spring will soon be upon us. Wall Street is currently flush with delight at the year long run of the stock market (driven by fiat bailouts), which at first glance appears to be doing quite well, though international incidences such as those in Dubai and Greece have revealed how shaky the market actually is in the face of any unhealthy news. In the meantime, the dollar, recently on the edge of detrimental value loss, has made a semi-miraculous recovery in the span of a few months, especially as the Euro suffers. Official employment numbers, despite the continuous loss of jobs monthly, have somehow fallen and are for the moment stabilized. Is it time for America to dust off the old credit cards and return to the wild and rollicking carefree spending days of pre-2007? Perhaps not
While the mainstream media puts on the recovery song and dance, the fundamental problems of the collapse remain the same, and in some cases are growing ever more precarious. Subsections of the public, unaware of the real issues at hand, are holding a misguided jubilee in the tranquil eye of a hurricane, wrongly assuming that the storm has passed.

And BTW, you’ve probably read about Greece. Britain has default worries now, too. When enough investors see no other way but default in one country, bonds (led by treasuries) can collapse in other countries.
Ping to #12.
You familiar with Malachi Martin?
More serious to us than the Greek economy, even more than our own unemployment and dismal manufacturing situation is the present representation we have.
The idea that they are talking about such craziness as the Slaughter rule when the Constitution plainly states that such legislation must be voted on with yeas and nays and the votes recorded...
Why do people not realize that this is the road to ruin, that if this sort of thing is tolerated for one instant, we open the door to oppressive government, if not dictatorship.
There’s a bright side to Greece. Without this upheaval,this slap from reality,the supposed free ride would be continuing. Even if Greece defaults its probably worth it for the end result. I do not agree at all that England is anywhere near default. A lower debt rating in the case of a sovereign nation only means the increase chance of default grew from one remote chance to one that’s slightly less remote.
We’re at or near the top of that 1st roller coaster hill.... We know something’s different. At least, we do here on FR.
“Starving the Monkeys”

On unemployment numbers—Freepers may be interested to know that the most publicized unemployment number (currently 9.7% I believe) does not include all folks collecting unemployment insurance.
Yeah, they forgot to tell you that.
The figure only includes people collecting unemployment under the normal state rules, and does not include folks covered by the extensions passed by Congress.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics could argue that this is an “apples to apples” comparison to periods before the extensions existed—and they have a point.
But the new reality in the Obama economy is that folks have been and will continue to be unemployed for years—and the numbers are hiding that. For the foreseeable future there will be many millions of unemployed not reflected in that figure—and of course that dosen’t include the underemployed, the self-employed with substantially lower income, etc.

Will check it out. Am somewhat familiar with M Martin.
Heading back to bed for now.
Thank you for this article. It gives me comfort in the sense that I’ve had a terrible foreboding about our future. Here, at last, is a spelling out of the reason for that feeling.
I’ve sent a link for the article to my entire family, even the BO supporters. I pray they all read it and take it seriously.
Thanks so much. It originally was in a different category, but got moved to “conspiracy,” I think fewer people have seen it as a result. Oh well, this gentleman’s predictions from January seem to be playing out a little, time will tell.
Communitarianism is the theory behind the emerging global government. It over rules all US law and replaces it with communitarian supremacy of law (EU, WTO, NAFTA, etc.) It’s been introduced under treaties (Law of the Sea, Kyoto, etc) and under the Administrative Procedures Act of1946 (agency regulations). The blueprint for changing the global landscape is called UN Local Agenda 21. http://nord.twu.net/acl/agenda21.html
The global system is based in self appointed community councils who direct all private and public resources. According to the gurus (and yes Clinton is one of them)all rights to privacy and property are barriers to peace and global prosperity; communitarianism promises all wealth will be gathered and redistributed amongst the poor nations who suffered so long from Western greed and gluttony.This is why Seattle had the new “right” to enter our homes without a legal search warrant. Under communitarian law, ALL individual rights must be “balanced” against the rights of the undefinable, vague community, who have their own new police force introduced under Clinton, called community policing. (I have many recent quotes of Clinton on the ACL homepage, http://nord.twu.net/acl/index.html
I am opposed to elimination of US law without a constitutional amendment approved by 3/4ths of the state legislatures, as per our constitutional requirements. If this isn’t what you wanted or you want to know more, we just restocked 2020: Our Common Destiny. That’s the most simplified explanation of the system we’ve written. http://nord.twu.net/acl/books.html I also highly recommend you read our Anti Communitarian Manifesto, http://nord.twu.net/acl/manifesto, available free online or in hardcopy collector’s editions. Part I will be difficult since you have no education in philosophy, but please plod through even where you don’t understand it. In the end you will, I promise.
...our thesis against communitarianism has been studied by university students AND professors for eight years... and no one has ever rebutted us. Our work has been introduced in Vassar College Seminars on Quality of Life, it’s been included in National Association of Scholars research into communitarian residence life movements. I can assure you I have established myself globally as a credible researcher, I am the expert, and my audience is world wide.

JDW, unfortunately I still couldnt get into your site.
I gave you Fr Malachi Martin because he was the first who clued me into this luciferian scheming a long time ago. I resurrected his books and tapes a few years ago when I saw it all play out before my eyes.
I hope the above links and Dr Martin’s tapes are of some help.
I’ve started reading the “Anti communist Manifesto” now. I’m not sure why you’re unable to get into the site, but there’s not a lot of information on it as of yet, it was a blog I started about 2 years ago, but have not kept up with, it’s mostly survival basics.
I don’t have a philosophy background, but do have a degree in Sociology (it’s not my only one, but it may help). I’ll ping you back once I’ve read more. Thanks.
I think the title here is really a reflection of reality....the dark side is moving forward while the sheeple are confused and blinded.
I’ve come to believe that the NWO is the “Mystery Babylon” of Revelations.
So few see it for what it is, its a mystery.
I fear you are right.
Never mind - got it - a very helpful link...

What Good Can a Handgun Do Against an Army.....?

You lost me, there. What are you trying to say? You are writing this not to us, but to someone specific, who happens to have no education in philosophy?
You are copying and pasting this? Is it a quote from someone, to someone?
EFAD. You can read segments online before you spend any $$ but trust me, it's a must and the writing is incredible.
Finally, if I may be so immodest, I suggest you read my freeper home page and take a look at my reading list. There are some very good "survival books" presented therein.
Read “The Modern Survival Manual” by Fernando Aguirre, based on life in Argentina after the 2001 bank collapses and near societal collapse. It’s best preparation for the most likely scenarios we’ll face.
