Jobs are getting MORE scarce in the USA

The invasion of the USA is NOT a "MEXICAN" problem!

     In truth, considering that invaders (incorrectly and deceitfully referred to as "illegal immigrants" [or "indocumentados"]) are certainly NOT ONLY involved in FARM and MENIAL LABOR, but are employed in probably every concept of employment, independent contracting and sole proprietorships across the country (most often dishonestly using bogus SS numbers and other false identification among additional violations of many democratically enacted laws).  The invasion from all parts of the world is a major cause of the current reduced employment opportunities for American citizens and for authentic immigrants (those who came to the USA through lawful means).  Those visitors overstaying visas must also be accounted for. Note: In most countries, if Americans were to invade and work without permission they would be treated as criminals by the governments of those nations

    It is essential to halt the invasion, regardless of the nations of origin of the invaders¿Why does the US government still maintain bases in Europe for more than 100,000 US military personnel and civilian employees??  ¿Why do we still have another 50,000 + military personnel in Japan and Korea??  Our borders and seashores, beyond any reasonable person's doubt, is definitely a national defense issue!!!   We need to bring back to the USA at least 50,000 US military personnel, and most US military equipment now in Germany, Korea and Japan, to reinforce the Border Patrol and Coast Guard. The cost of keeping our military in the aforementioned countries is colossal, and apparently a major waste of taxpayers funds?  If there is legitimacy for our troops to remain in Europe, Korea and Japan, Americans should be thoroughly advised of the costs and reasons.  West Europeans, Japan and Korea certainly now have the internal economic capability to finance their own defense forces.

   With our borders secure, other methods (high tech, administrative, etc.) needed to stop the invasion would be less difficult and far less costly.  President Bush should admit that the hundreds of kidnappings, the violence, the killings of both Americans and Mexicans - including Mexican officials, and including hundreds of attacks on our Border Patrol and other Law Enforcement personnel, the drug smuggling and other chaos along our southern border, considering the use of rockets, machine guns, grenades and other military-guerrilla type activities, certainly resembles war.

    Also, besides thwarting the invasion, as a separate issue, it is essential that streamlining the processes to encourage authentic and rapid immigration (for those who honestly apply for entry to the USA) be quickly addressed.  Just as the USA urgently needs far more young science and technical people graduating from our educational facilities, we also need the same level of professional people as immigrants.  If we are to regain our traditional technical leadership (so long labeled as "American ingenuity"), high quality and dedicated people will have to discern/invent improved methods for Americans to provide better products at lower prices on the world markets.  I f we cannot compete (offer high quality products to the world at competitive prices), we will degrade into an economically depressed nation.  


The "union mentality" of minimal work for maximum pay must be broken!!!   We need far less highly paid management personnel, especially in government, and more high quality people in all types of productivity.  Overall, we need far less government bureaucracy and much more efficient productivity to return America to the greatness of yesteryear.

Who were the Beneficiaries? Lincoln, Kennedy Assassinations.

One Democrat's Opinion

Date:  11 Mr 08

     Definition: 
What is a conspiracy?  A conspiracy is any plan held between two or more people, but kept secret from all others (such as conspiring to spring a surprise birthday party).


Lincoln assassination, who were the Beneficiaries?  Follow the Money!

    There are many "theories" on why President Abraham Lincoln was disposed of.  The following is the most likely, and all factual evidence quoted all the various theories, points to it.

   Some of the "theories", obviously, are very clever diversions designed to obscure the issue (disinformation), to protect the conspirators.   Recently The History Channel provided a "theory"  straying from the schoolbook premise that John Wilkes Booth was a lone crazy assassin, in which it is finally admitted that there were at least seven conspirators in the Lincoln assassination.

  
Follow the money:  Baron von Rothschild, "I care not who makes the laws so long as I can issue the money and control its value".  All of the European governments were controlled by debt owed to the financiers of governments.   Like Washington, both the Adams, Jefferson, Madison, Monroe, especially Jackson, van Buren and others, Lincoln had only contempt for those he referred to as "the money power".   Those money handlers who control the strings that manipulate the 'puppets' administering government. 

  To be the owners of massive government debt of  is to be able to forcefully influence those who make the laws to do the bidding of the holders of the debt.  The evidence in the Lincoln assassination points to a conspiracy of at least 70 people, many of them in both Lincoln's and Davis' administrations, and ties to the bankers who funded the Confederacy's side of the war against the Union.

   Before the Civil War began Lincoln had said that
"the money power"
was stirring up racial hatred as a means of destroying the American nation; dividing the North and the South, and factions within each side, against each other.  President Jackson, who's vile language about 'the bankers' will not be repeated by this writer, had blocked the charter of the United States National Bank - USNB (forerunner of the Federal Reserve System - FRS), and had thus been a target of a failed assassination (he was only wounded).   Lincoln, following the Constitution, would not allow international financiers to control the American government through debt.

     One of the most telling sets of facts is that the (Rothschild) bankers, after the assassination of Lincoln, gradually regained control of the American economy.   They could not have accomplished this without ample aid of high ranking people in government.

The following was taken verbatim from the Internet:

THEORY #4

LINCOLN'S ASSASSINATION WAS THE RESULT OF A CONSPIRACY OF POWERFUL INTERNATIONAL BANKERS

     This theory is that Abraham Lincoln was killed as a result of his monetary policies. John Wilkes Booth would be seen as a hired gun. In its simplest terms, the theory is that Lincoln needed money to finance the Civil War. Bankers in Europe led by the Rothschilds offered him loans at high interest rates. Rather than accept the loans, Lincoln found other means to fund the war effort. More importantly, the British bankers opposed Lincoln's protectionist policies. Some Englishmen in the 1860's believed that "British free trade, industrial monopoly and human slavery travel together." Lincoln's policies after the Civil War would have destroyed the Rothschilds' commodity speculations. After the war, Lincoln planned a mild Reconstruction policy which would have enabled a resumption of agriculture production. The Rothschilds were betting the other way on high prices caused by a tough Reconstruction policy toward the South. Lincoln was viewed as a threat to the established order of things, and he was assassinated as a result. The goal was to weaken the United States so the Rothschilds could takeover its economy. An article titled "The Rothschilds' International Plot to Kill Lincoln" was published October 29, 1976, in New Solidarity.

Let's Apply Some Logic

     Lincoln's post-war plans would have quickly, in only a few years, restored the prosperity of all parts of the nation, including The South.  Vice President Johnson, among others, wanted not only to strongly punish all the people of the South, but to increase the influence and power of government (centralization of federal authority).  Due to bankers regaining control of the economy, putting President Andrew Johnson's vengeance machinations into action,  it took more than 100 years for The South to again be highly prosperous.

     As FDR said, "If it happens in politics, you can [safely] bet it was planned that way".  Whoever coined the phrase, "Follow the money" if you want to find the truth, must have studied the methods and agendas of the handlers of vastly tremendous sums of money in government and in international banking? 

     There have been assassination attempts targeting other US presidents who opposed the private central bankers.  Several Members of Congress and Senators who opposed the private central bankers met very untimely, unlikely and quite mysterious deaths. The reach and power of money is far beyond the imaginations of most Americans.

Another Assassination:


 

     The private central bankers were already infuriated at President John F. Kennedy for having achieved the biggest tax reductions in US history (the bankers acquire much of their "earnings" from interest paid by government - - JFK's tax reductions could limit that flow of "loot"), and for squelching much of the illegal money flow among organized crime.   How many Americans are aware that President Kennedy had prepared two Executive Orders that would have ended the Charter of the (private central bank of the USA) the Federal Reserve Corporation?  Suddenly, before he could put these EOs into effect, he was assassinated.  Also within a few months, there were many mysterious deaths of people who apparently "knew too much" (more than 30, far too many to be "coincidence"), thus they would be liabilities that may reveal the entire story. 

     Did you know that the USA levies some of the highest taxes/tariffs/fees, worldwide, on American businesses?  Did you know that several former socialist countries (of eastern Europe and others) are now the most capitalistic (the lowest taxes), and thus have the fastest growing economies on the planet, thus continuously increasing prosperity for their citizens.  This while our US economy is shrinking due to excessive taxation? 

     How do the bankers get paid on the loans
to government?  The interest the US government pays to the bankers comes from your taxes (whether directly or indirectly levied on you)!!!!

     One question that should be on every voters mind in November 2008:  In that Americans already pay up to half, or more, of their earnings in the never ending variety of local, County, State, regional and federal taxes , why would candidates for political offices (President, Congress, etc.), regardless of political party, suggest increasing taxes (even by letting previous tax cuts expire)?  Every politician knows that "taxes on the rich" are nothing more than additional costs of doing business, thus higher taxes on the rich always results in higher prices for consumers.  The consumer, in the final analysis, pays all taxes.

     Central bankers do not want competition; like the John D. Rockefeller statement, "I don't want to be the biggest oil company; I want to be the ONLY oil company", the bankers are not competition capitalists.  They want total monopoly.  If every American can be taxed very highly, in order to pay the interest on government debt (city, County, State, regional, federal), plus keeping every citizen submerged in personal debt during their entire lifetimes, the central bankers are the perpetual beneficiaries of the work of all, limiting the economic lives of all the millions of people outside their tiny ruling coteries .  In truth, you are working for the luxuries of the central bankers and their political vassals!

     Be very careful of what you vote for.  Freedom is fragile.  If you vote away American liberty, as the Venezuelan people have done by electing Hugo Chávez as their president, it will be extremely difficult to regain.  Once a government begins any kind of operation, it is almost impossible to stop it.  Use your vote, not for factionalism, not as a weapon against other segments of America, but to make all Americans more equal, to protect the prosperity and earnings of all our people.  The only perpetual enemy of democratic civilization is the centralized power of socialistic civilization; that which regulates and confiscates your earnings for the benefit of a few (and for politicians catering to the private monopoly, anti-capitalistic central bankers).

I would say to the Florida and Michigan Voters


Like probably a vast majority of we traditional Democrats (over age 55), I do not vote according to what a candidate says, but according to what he or she has represented in the past.

Whether agreeing with his views, or not, I cannot challenge Mr. Obama's honesty. However, it is clear that Mrs. Hillary Clinton, ever since her participation in the Nixon impeachment (1972), has shown ingeniously clever deceit along with total lack of scruples, in her quest for power. Like the winds, she has changed her views according to the opinion polls, never according to principle or any conviction. Why? Obviously because she believes she can acquire ("buy") votes through such chicanery. As Jerry Zeifman, Chief Counsel of the House Judiciary Committee in the Nixon Impeachment, has pointed out, acquisition of power is the only goal, the obsession, of Mrs. Clinton.

Erroneously, some have labeled Mrs. Clinton a communist due to her sometimes intermittent support of socialist objectives. Irony: Few people recall that Hillary Rodham was a strong supporter of Senator Barry Goldwater, an unmistakably ant-communist, in his bid for the presidency. This reveals to any logical person that Mrs. Clinton has no convictions, either in the direction of socialism, or the total opposite direction, the absolute antithesis of socialism, our democratic philosophy. She is ingenious in her capability to "fit herself into" any format that opinion polls indicate the majority of people support. Obviously this is an orchestrated effort in that she will do and say whatever is required for her to reach the pinnacle of power.


 

Think on this very clearly: Venezuela was one of the most democratic civilizations in all of South America. However, the people there voted Señor Hugo Chávez, a pretend Democrat, into the presidency. Only then did Chávez show his true colors as he began "nationalization" (confiscation) of much of organized industry, and supporting drug lords and revolutionary guerrilla organizations; demonstrating that his ultimate (hidden) goals are power and money. Now Venezuelans are in a deadly quandary. They cannot simply go back to their democratic civilization by a nationwide vote. Like Chávez, Hillary will promise anything, although contradicting much of her previous 40 years of activities, to get your vote. Also, remember, once centralized power is achieved, as was done by Adolph Hitler, Josef Stalin, Saddam Hussein, Mao Tse Dong, Vladimir Putin, and others, though not necessarily by elections, you cannot simply vote again to regain your democratic civilization. Your Americans freedoms, the rights to do with your life as you please, are fragile. Once centralized control is achieved by power hungry monopolists, it is next to impossible, without bloody revolution, to end it. Elections in regimes of centralized power, as the recent ones in Venezuela and Russia clearly demonstrate, are rigged to maintain the status quo. The people, although pretend elections may be held, really have no voice, no effect, in governance.

Talk with people who have emigrated from countries in which small cabals hold centralized power under their control. These immigrants can relate the experiences that could befall these United States if we fail to respect our Constitutional philosophy of absolute de-centralization of power. The placement of the ultimate political power "in the hands of the people themselves" , as Thomas Jefferson so eloquently put it, is the American blessing that has since been very, very slowly spreading around the world. Still only about 50 of the 191 member "states" of the United Nations allow any semblance of authentic democratic civilization within their borders, making our system of human rights and individual freedom a minority political influence on the planet.

As an Internationalist Democrat of over 45 years, I would never vote for any candidate, such as Hillary Clinton, whose only objective is personal power.

The Republicans very obviously made a wrong choice in selecting John McCain as their candidate. He has next to no chance of beating Barack Obama in November.
