They are scared. They see what they saw in Russia. They cannot figure out why Americans are doing this to themselves.
I know FReepers are reading this type of posting but how many of you believe we are in trouble versus just a black Jimmy Carter and the same 'ol Dems?
I see some serious, serious things happening to us in the coming years.
But what I don't see is Americans reacting as they should be reacting to their freedom being dramatically diminished -- not to mention their standard of living as the counterfeiting operation (Federal Reserve) prints money like the LA Times prints propaganda (every dollar above replacement bills that they print diminishes the real value of your dollar).
You are being robbed, lied to, deceived, made the fool, betrayed in any number of ways and yet I don't see a real response.
What am I missing? Is there something in the water?
Where's the fight against these people that you making virtual slaves of all of you?
30 years ago millions followed a great deceiver with questionable origins who promised them "Change" from an unpopular leader. Sounds familiar? I'm talking about Khomeini. Having witnessed the run-up to the Revolution in Iran, it adds another level of eerie memories.
Yes!!!
There are many pieces of evidence that we should all remain “en garde.” Still, best case scenarios are still possible: another Carter-style administration, maybe no major world conflict SOMEHOW. But we do need to remain cautious and ready to spring into protest if freedoms start being curtailed.
The Nazis spent a LOT of manpower and money going from town to town and organizing Aktiens against the Jews. The German soldiers / SS men actually shot babies in the face, killed mothers next to screaming toddlers, tortured people in expensive and inhumanly sick ways. The Final Solution needed a LOT of people to carry out a very detailed and organized systematic plan. That is not going to happen here, so be realistic.
Did you see this posting of mine earlier today? Think you might be interested.

“What am I missing?”
The brainwashing in schools, perhaps? “Professor” Ayres? Young Americans have not only not been taught about the foundation and history of their country, they’ve actually bought into the self-serving European concept that somehow America is to blame for all the trouble in the world. Something very similar happened in England. They lost all concept of and respect for their own culture so they were open to being taken over by another - in their case Islam.
I knew America was over when we elected Clinton. It was just a matter of time before we went all the way.
In the ensuing years, the left, out of power in the Bush years, went on a rampage unheard of, accusing Bush of everything possible, incredible even as it seemd at the time, but with no response from the Republicans. we left Bush hanging in the wind, just trying to get through those years, hoping to put forward someone they’d like. The left will never like a single one of us. Hence, the so-called conservatives writers and other RINOs who have basically abandoned the right in order to be seen as tolerant and free-thinking.
We have all been some part of the problem. Our spiritual leaders have abandoned their duty to lead us in righteousness. Instead we have church services to please our itching ears, make us ‘feel good’ about ourselves, etc. Truth has long been the target of the left and we’ve not bothered to fight the good fight to hold the line. We talk a good line. Now, I think we’ll probably get the opportunity to live what we believe and possible die for it. How many of us will really stand on that day? There’s a good reason why the Scripture says that when Christ returns, will He find faith? The answer is not what most want to hear. The answer is that there will be so few faithful left that it will appear that there is none left.
Good article. When God is removed from society, it inevitably collapses.
Bump.
It doesn't work that way. If productivity increases and the money suppy does not, deflation occurs, which is almost as bad as inflation. As long as the government does not spend money they haven't raised by taxation and borrowing, the danger of hyperinflation does not exist.
Any spending by the government above that required for it to perform its legitimate functions (the Army and the courts, basically) is a diversion of resources and distorts markets.
Oh, I am terrified. I have said before, my gut tells me that this is more than just “disagreeing with policies”. And from the looks of faces in this country since the election, it seems alot feel the same.
This economic BS is manufactured as far as I’m concerned. Yes, poor and stupid policies got us going, but the crashing was set in place to cause a panicked election.
And it worked for 52% of this nation.
This is a very sad thread. Reading through it I can see that many no longer are accusing tinfoil hat to people that have opened their eyes.
Just last year there were threads started by FReepers who were warning of just what is happening. One of those threads would get maybe 14 posts before someone would get on to excoriate those who could forsee what is happening.
Many of those FReepers have kind of quit posting, because I don’t see them around.
Just yesterday in one of my moments where it is quiet and I just take in what I have seen and heard, I became almost ill. I had to ask myself why everyone is almost numb to reacting to what is going on before our eyes. Maybe fear, denial, apathy? Maybe people are waiting for someone to charge in and make it right. Maybe it is too late.
So far, it looks like we are going to be dragged over a cliff and we are going to watch in wide eyed horror as it happens.
In the 1930s by the time many people realized it was time to get out, it was too late. I keep getting the feeling that it is “time to get out” but the US is the last refuge. Where do we “get out” to? Stay and fight? A few Germans fought. They are, at best, footnotes in the denser history books. Americans will not fight, not in any numbers and when the USA collapses into totalitarianism there will be no more history books, only fantasy articles about a fictional past.
These constant Nazi comparisons sound very foolish indeed. Is Obama dangerous? Yes. Is he likely to be a Hitler type figure as ten threads a day suggest? No. I see a zero percent chance that we end up with concentration camps under him for instance. Those who continue to push that line sound like those Bush=Hitler wingbats. In fact 95% of the time that Hitler is invoked in political discussion the person using his name comes out sounding foolish. Its an easy way to get people to stop paying attention to an otherwise good point.
Americans have taken the easy path. They have taken the path that someone else will provide for them. They get free stuff from the government with the promise that those who actually worked and earned the money in the first place, will be punished for working that hard. These fools lose sight that if more and more see they can get free stuff from the government, then there will be fewer and fewer of those evil rich working and earning this free money to give too them.
America is slowly REPEATING the errors and mistakes of countries in the past. As a result, freedom and liberty are the first victim. I truly believe that this country is in for a far worse time in the future than returning to the good. Little by little the Marxist's in the new US Politburo will take away liberty in small inserted sentences in some 10,000 page bloated bill. The future of liberty is bleak. We can place a ton of the blame at the feet of the republican party. They lost sight of the goal by moving left into RINOville.
We are busy planning, stocking up. Creating stashes of survival goods, learning new skills. The producers are scaling back production. Why produce if it will be stolen and redistributed?
How do you propose we fight the 52% of Americans that have gone insane? If we managed to get millions to march on Washington, do you see it making a difference? Think they will listen then?
We plan on starving the beast. That is the option that keeps popping up. Many will be hurt and wiped out financially, even those that don’t deserve it.
With you. Saw this rising years ago.
It boiled down to accepting the truth that ‘as I am, so is my nation’ ...
