• “Marriage Equality Was Already Guaranteed to Be an Issue this November”

    Of course it was going to be an issue, and a host of other issues that will be meant to distract the so-called electorate from the deep structural flaws of the American system of governing. Identity politics is a valuable tool for the duopoly to continue this farce of a democracy.

    And thus Obama’s announcement yesterday, who in their right mind doesn’t think the president was not tipped off about this story coming out today?

    “Not surprisingly, part of the reason Romney is doing well in Florida and Ohio is that he is winning on the issue of the economy, which dominates this election…The idea that Pennsylvania might be a swing state tends be recycled every election, but I found it hard to believe the state could be decisive.”

    Of course he is, they are 2 of the proverbial “swing” states. How many elections cycles must pass before this gibberish is finally seen for what it actually is, gibberish. This is just more of the illusion of a democracy. The majority of political reporters have a template of stories they run every election cycle. The “hotly contested battleground/swing state story”, “the how much richer than the other guy is running story”, the candidate did a flub,flip-flop or generally said something they shouldn’t have said story” and “the how much more money/support one candidate is getting over the other story.”

    These are nothing more than distractions from the truth of the duopoly that is the fascist government of the U.S.

  • “The trade of the petty usurer is hated with most reason: it makes a profit from currency itself, instead of making it from the process which currency was meant to serve. Their common characteristic is obviously their sordid avarice.”-Aristotle

    “When a government is dependent upon bankers for money, they and not the leaders of the government control the situation, since the hand that gives is above the hand that takes. Money has no motherland; financiers are without patriotism and without decency; their sole object is gain.”- Napoleon Bonaparte

  • “When the IMF and the World Bank force a country to cut wages, lay off workers, produce for export instead of their own people, and sell off public property to cronies for less than its value, that’s called “economic reform”-Robert Naiman

  • “The capacity of a large-scale drug trade to dominate certain countries if they were allowed to operate legally without any constraint could be just as corrupting, if not more corrupting, than the status quo,” he said.(Obama)

    Obama must not consider Big Pharma and the Health Insurance industry as corrupting influences.

    Question: Has anyone considered that these recent attacks against women in the political sphere perhaps be part of a much larger propagandistic scheme of creating an election year narrative where Obama wins/selected due to “overwhelming support by women”? Furthermore does this set up the system to make the next puppet ruler to be a Queen?

    This Supreme Court is the Tim Donaghy of referees with it comes to the law. These narcissists will not rule in favor of taking money out of their investment portfolios, nor will any sitting politician in this day and age will make legislation to that effect. Furthermore, the executive branch has proven to be impotent in enforcing any law that may damage their portfolios.

    Health insurance is another Wall Street racket tossed on the American public so that some people can profit off the sickness and death of another person.

    “Draw them in with prospect of gain, take them by confusion.” Sun Tzu, The Art of War

    The health care fight morphed from universal to pubilic option to individual mandate where now the supposed “liberals” are defending a mandate to buy a defective product that creates profit through human suffering. The fascists are winning. Even if the mandate is struck down by itself, the majority of this industry friendly act will remain intact or the industry will revert back to what is was doing prior to the act.

    The questions that should be before the court is whether health care is a human right or not and should an industry profit off the misfortunes of others?

    An analysis of universal care would have been more instructive.
