The proposed system isn’t perfect but it is probably better that the mess the FED has made of the current system.

Triple Lutz Report–Martin Armstrong’s Mad Max Prediction–Episode 367/2303
This is not as far fetched as you would think! At some point in the near future no one will lend the Federal government any more money. In 8 full years Bush added 4.9 Trillion to the debt. In 5 years and 8 months Obama added 7.2 Trillion to the national debt. On January 2001 the national debt was only 54.3% of the GDP today it is over 100% and climbing — we have been living on borrowed money since 9/11 and at some point those that have lent the money will want to be paid back!

These globalists are obsessed with Malthus and his economic theory that has never been proven that population will increase geometrically and food production arithmetically; thus leading to starvation and war. Malthus wrote prior to the industrial revolution which showed that technology obsoleted this theory. .

The Left’s Alliance with Despotism, Then and Now
By Prof. Paul Eidelberg
British recognition of Palestinian statehood corresponds to British appeasement of Nazi Germany, which recalls the adage, plus ça change, plus c’est la même chose: The more it changes, the more it’s the same. British appeasement of despotism led to World War II. It may very well lead to World War III.
George Orwell attributed British appeasement of Nazi Germany in the 1930s to the pervasive doctrine of moral relativism then and still propagated by English universities. The same relativism underlies British recognition of Palestinian statehood. Melanie Phillips excoriates this relativism in her book The World Turned Upside Down: The Global Battle over God, Truth, and Power (2010). So does Theodore Dalrymple in Our Culture, What’s Left of It (2005).
During World War II, American-born William Joyce, known as Lord Haw-Haw, became a Nazi propaganda broadcaster to England. His job was to undermine English morale. He had unwitting if not witting allies among England’s Left. Prominent among England’s anti-war protesters were intellectuals who hated Churchill. Haw-Haw was eventually captured and executed for treason by the British as a result of his wartime activities.
More recently, in September 2010, an American convert to Islam, Adam Gadahn, who became an English-language spokesman for al-Qaeda in the United States, was indicted in absentia by a federal grand jury for treason, “Aiding and Abetting al-Qaeda” (18 U.S.C. § 2339B). We have here a paradoxical phenomenon: Leftists, usually atheists, allied with Muslims.
To understand this phenomenon, we can hardly do better than study the letters and journalism of George Orwell. Although Orwell was, in sentiment, a socialist, he deplored England’s leftwing intelligentsia – especially its academics. He scorned the “emotional shallowness” of intellectuals who live in the world of ideas and have little contact with physical reality. He saw that many intellectuals of the Left were severed from the common culture of their country. “England,” said Orwell, “is perhaps the only great country whose intellectuals are ashamed of their own nationality” – precisely the feeling of many leftwing American professors.
India-born Dinesh D’Souza cites numerous examples of this attitude among American academics, journalists, movie stars, and other opinion-makers. “One American professor, Robert Jensen, said on the day after 9/11: “We must say goodbye to patriotism because the world cannot survive indefinitely the patriotism of Americans.” Political scientist Richard Berthold said, “Anyone who can blow up the Pentagon would get my vote.” Comedian Janeane Garofalo recently said, “When I see … a gay parade … in New York, with naked men and women on a float cheering, ‘We’re here, we’re queer!’ that’s what makes my heart swell. Not the flag, but a gay naked man or woman burning the flag. I get choked up with pride.”
Returning to England, the Left persistently chipped away at English morale and regarded patriotism as an “atavistic emotion.” During the 1920s and 30s, the main object of the cultural left was to break down the feeling of patriotism. This encouraged self-indulgence and hedonism. Nazi Germany deemed England soft and decadent: hence, that it was safe to plunge into war.
The American cultural left is no less hedonistic. Neo-paganism is rampant in America, only now this neo-paganism, disseminated throughout the world by American pop culture, threatens tradition based-cultures like Islam and therefore provokes Islam’s jihadic attacks against the United States. While Islam exalts war at any price, the cultural left exalts peace at any price.
Pacifism and defeatism were rampant among the English intelligentsia. Orwell saw that people who started by renouncing violence often ended up supporting Hitler. The opponents of England’s involvement in the war simply lacked the intellectual courage to think through the practical consequences of their position: their opposition to the war was objectively pro-Fascist. One may say the same of today’s cultural Left in America, but let’s probe a little deeper.
The cultural left fears Christian more than Islamic fundamentalists. They see in religion a threat to unfettered personal freedom. For the cultural left, freedom means the absence of all external moral constraints: it is the freedom of depravity. This is what the cultural war in America is all about. A new morality is gaining ascendancy – the morality of moral depravity.
How did this new morality become so powerful? After all, a majority of Americans support family values. Why don’t the laws of the United States protect these values? The answer is this: As in Israel, the cultural left has gained control of the judicial branch of government. It is the U.S. Supreme Court that decriminalized pornography and legalized same sex marriages. In the factitious name of human rights, a child no longer has a right to two parents.
The Court has made a mockery of the First Amendment by removing virtually all symbols of religion from the public domain – and without religion, there is no morality.
No wonder Islam regards America as the Great Satan. But now Muslims see that the cultural left is only part of America, the part that threatens Islam. It is the cultural left that is seeking to spread homosexuality, same-sex marriage, and pornography throughout the world via various international organizations, including the UN.
And so Islam sees in the cultural left an enemy as well as an ally. As an enemy, the cultural Left is diametrically opposed to Islam. But since the Left has become anti-American, it is the ally of Islam!

If WMD Did Not Exist In Iraq Then Why Is CNN and New York Times Reporting on WMD in Iraq?
Bush must have been hiding the WMD’s because he knew Obama would be the next president and this would make him and Hillary look bad when they were found — so Jeb Bush could be elected President in 2016.

The Fourth Horseman Has Arrived
One could say that Obama is the commander in Chief of the Four Housemen and that he has set them loose!
By Alan Caruba ~
“I looked and there before me was a pale horse! Its rider was named Death, and Hades was following close behind him. They were given power over a fourth of the earth to kill by sword, famine and plague, and by the wild beasts of the earth.” – Revelation 6:8
The Four Horsemen of Apocalypse as named in Revelation are Conquest, War, Famine, and Death.
It is an apt metaphor for what is occurring in America today. Ebola is now raging in several African nations, Liberia, Sierra Leon, Guinea, and Nigeria.
On September 30 the first African to make it to the U.S. with Ebola was identified. By October 8 he was dead. Ebola has arrived and, despite everything that the various agencies of the Obama Administration are telling us—the Centers for Disease Control and Homeland Security—I have no confidence it will not keep arriving.

Obama’s Unemployment Rate Is 5.9% ~ But 5.9% Of What?: 29% Of U.S. Labor Population Out Of Work And Out Of Labor Force!
The following re-post shows the facts and figures of what is happening in our counter as Obama and his appointed minions “Fundamentally Transform” the country into their vision of what it should be. The next result of 6 years of this has been to shift large percentages of the middle class out of the work force and its worse than what is presented here as the BLS reports do not count self employed or military jobs both of which tend to the higher side in the middle class.
The bottom line is that there are fewer and fewer jobs in the middle class which as this post suggests those people have either gone on welfare or taken early retirement. That means that few and fewer “workers” that pay taxes are going to be forced to take care of more and more people that are not working.Using BLS figures, as of last month, only 46.0% of the population of the united states was holding a job. 6 years ago that was 48.5% of the population which means that we are short at least 8.0 million jobs right now.
