Secrets of the Shadow Makers: Unidentified Flying Objects and the real Men in Black

I first ran into my recollections of Neil Armstrong–the astronaut as a kid in the museum up in Wapakoneta, Ohio. I then read about him as he appeared in Chuck Yeager’s book Yeager during the time that Tom Wolfe’s great book The Right Stuff had been made into a wonderful film. But Neil Armstrong for being the first person to walk on the moon has been something of a quiet spokesman on the topic and has a reputation for not wanting to speak too much about his experiences. However his crew mate Buzz Aldrin has not been so quiet and has let out over time that there were encounters with intelligent life during the Apollo missions.

All this was fun speculation however I was a bit stunned when Steven Spielberg and Michael Bay took the speculation of that first moonwalk and used it as a way to introduce their fictional Transformer robots in Transformers 3. I would have thought NASA, Armstrong and Aldrin would have protested such an outrageous use of their likeness, but they didn’t.

Instead the movie came out, and the talk was all about how cool the Transformers were and how hot the supermodel in the film was, but not much talk went on about the strange events of that first moon landing. After all, there are many conspiracy theorists who believe that the entire moon landing was a fake designed to convince the Soviet government that America had beat them to the moon to demoralize the communist country.  Being a fan of Spielberg for many years, I have an idea of how much money he has personally invested into the research of extraterrestrial life, and without a doubt he had access to detailed discussions with Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin at some point in the past and felt comfortable enough with their statements to inject them into the movie he produced.

My interest in extraterrestrial life stems from my rather detailed research into world history, comparative religion, scientific evolution and the time line of philosophic thought. After my own investigations into The Mothman Prophecies of Point Pleasant, West Virginia and searches around the deep woods of south eastern Ohio for cryptozoologic creatures and remnants of the legendary Bigfoot, I cannot report seeing such creatures, but understanding that there is a lot more to the world we are living in that is not revealed to us. After seeing how our society denies the existence of socialism and Muslim extremism right in front of our faces, something that is just too big and outside the parameters of accepted religious understanding is just too much for people to comprehend. For me the final proof came when I realized that archeologists and anthropologists were hiding a great number of discoveries to protect the education institutions that founded original thesis concepts, and that science was more interested in maintaining the status quo rather than truly understanding the REAL nature of human existence and the origins of life. CLICK HERE FOR MORE.

So I do not say it lightly when I say that most of what the modern human being thinks he or she knows—they aren’t even close yet. Our feeble grasp of our history, of our nature, and of our potential future is but a blade of grass in the vast never-ending horizons of the Midwest in America where grass can be seen as far as sight will take us. Humans have a lot to learn and it is our superstitions, religions, and fears of discovery that hold us back.

Mythology, which is another subject of mine that I study intensely, is formed in that attempt to bridge what we can rationally discover through a philosophy such as Objectivism by Ayn Rand and what we suspect is just over the horizon of thought. When we observe something that does not fit neatly within our senses, yet know that something has occurred, we are left to piece together the puzzle pieces logically, and logic does not take us to the door of virgin births, and gods who grant wisdom from unknowable places in time and space. Nor is the mathematics of Pythagoras in 490 BCE going to provide everything we need, because much is still unknown waiting for a philosophy to uncover the tools to detect more of the known world.

The human tendency to believe that everything has been invented is the approach of the living dead, the modern version of the zombie who uses Lao Tzu as a crutch to hide from the danger of adventurous knowledge and reside peacefully in a life of harmony, and contentment. Compared to where the human race should be, we are no more advanced than Thales of Miletus and his deduction that everything in the universe is made of water, which is true if the basic material of the cosmos is analyzed at one level of understanding. We know now that there is much more to the cosmos than these simple observations made in 540 BCE.

Within the year of this writing the news in the scientific community is ablaze with the discovery that neutrinos have destroyed the premise of Einstein’s equation E=MC2 by moving beyond the speed of light for the first time in human history. The media wishes to profess that Einstein was wrong, but he was not. He was no more wrong than Thales of Miletus; he observed the world and went as far as he could with limited knowledge. Within 100 years, quantum mechanics using sub atomic particles went further than Einstein could. And in 100 more years we will discover that breaking the light barrier with neutrinos is an archaic field of endeavor. We currently know that 72% of the universe is made of something called Dark Energy and another 23% is made up of Dark Matter. Only 4.6% of the Universe is made up of Atoms, the stuff we detect with our senses—only 4.6%.

I am 100% sure that our current government in the United States, for the same reason that religions desire to maintain control over their flocks, wish to deny science—to revert back to The Dark Ages–so that they can still be in charge, have maintained a level of secrecy against the public from what they have learned. They are motivated by the same trends Plato observed in his book The Republic in his cave allegory. Those who are in positions of power wish to keep that power due to a primitive desire in the human mind to maintain hierarchical relationships and such thoughts are a sickness. They stand in the way of mankind’s fate.

This is why I believe that Neil and Buzz discovered on the moon what they sought out all along, relics from a society either camped out in observation of life on planet earth, or an abandoned facility in a state of serious decay. I believe this is the primary reason that funding has been cut to NASA and we have never returned to the moon. The governments of earth wish to keep the spirit of human kind under their thumbs so to preserve the old order of stupidity prevalent for over 10,000 years. Earthly governments wish to keep mankind quiet for the same reason that Athens sentenced Socrates to death, because to the view of the Athenian government, Socrates was corrupting the minds of the young with his questioning philosophy. Socrates was offered to be exiled disgracefully, or to drink a fatal dose of hemlock in 399 BCE. Socrates chose the hemlock but lived on in his pupils first Plato, then the magnificent Aristotle who then instructed Alexander the Great.

We are no different now than we were then. A few minds think ahead of the social train of thought while everyone else lingers behind. When the rest of society catches up with those great minds it’s finally realized that everyone should have listened. A few hundred years’ later great minds like Jesus, Buddha, Confucius, and many others are finally recognized for their genius by followers who are simply second-handlers and fill in their own lack of proper recollection with myth. And the frustration continues.

The gates of wonder are open, yet mankind fears to go in because we still cling to leaders to lead us! In America we rebelled to push these leaders away, and we created the greatest country in the world using the miracles of capitalism to drive a technological boom unheard of in the history of the world, culminating sadly in that space voyage with Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin and Mike Collins. For the last 50 years America has enjoyed the technology developed during the NASA space race, but since Bill Clinton took office in the 90’s NASA has been dumbed down and defunded like the rest of society through a public education system that cares more for thoughts and feelings than adventure and scientific breakthroughs. This is done not to advance mankind, but for the kings of the hill to remain where they are, and to eliminate competition to their thrones of power. These days America is no different in their quests to throw off the shackles of political confinement than any other country in a global push for socialism. The motive was articulated by Plato in 340 BCE by the Allegory of the Cave which portrayed that the knowledge of the world is limited to mere shadows of reality and truth. And this is what our modern world is, mere shadows of a reality we do not yet have the courage to face.

Listen to Neil Armstrong in this clip at The White House in one of his rare and cryptic dialogs. This is not the speech of a conspiracy theorist, a con man, a hustler just trying to sell a new book. This is the voice of a fantastic test pilot who became an astronaut and had the courage to ride in a capsule the size of a car through the vast ocean of space to hit a small, unknown target. And what they found there was beyond human comprehension that is easy to see in hindsight.

If the human race starting with America could have the courage to tell it’s politicians to go to hell and shut the hell up—and get out of our way—we would discover on the moon the remnants of earths distant past, colonies set up to stage landings onto earth. We would also discover the means there of galactic, possibly intergalactic travel with technology that would make our discovery of the neutrino seem childlike. We would then discover on the planet Mars that Ray Bradbury was not so far off on his Martian Chronicles novel published in the 1950’s. There will be archeology on Mars that reveals great societies long gone and eroded away. Some of them coming to earth to settle, some of them trading with earth like America and China trade today, and we will discover that all this occurred over 100 million years ago and that these are our ancestors, and that the characters of Noah, and Solomon are our close relatives in the concept of time, instead of the distance figures we think them to be. We will also discover on Mars that some of its inhabitants left our solar system all together to settle someplace else in a cycle that is as old as time itself.

We will also discover that god is not out there in the heavens someplace or even on a distinct planet, but resides within one of the 11 dimensions that we are just beginning to get our minds around in quantum mechanics. These realities parallel our own existence completely in a complex pattern that can only be explained through the new rules of physics that show themselves at the quantum level.

But such discoveries will seem like science fiction always to the individual who seeks collectivism in a herd of cattle migrating through a bar or night club on a Friday night intoxicated and looking for a place to satisfy their sexual stimulation. They will belittle such concepts like amended ideas about the start of the human race, or technological breakthroughs that are easily within grasp, because they are living in a land of shadows, and are victims to the creators of those shadows.

It is even beyond comprehension to most minds that our current governments may actually be in present contact with extraterrestrial life, or are analyzing the documents left behind by such cultures that are kept locked away in private vaults peered at by those who wish to crown themselves kings. It would not be Presidents like Obama and the Russian KGB agent Putin who would involve themselves in these activities, because they are mere puppets to the hands of power that hold the cash they eat from.

I’m not personally interested in the shadows of our lives. I’m interested in what makes the shadows. To prevent investigation into their activities, the shadow makers have created the term “conspiracy theory” and other mechanisms to control speech and investigation, and alien technology falls under the umbrella of lunacy. Any serious scientific examination is discouraged either by politics or religious beliefs into the world behind those two facades. It is there that the real answers reside.

In my own life I have scrapped much of what I was taught in public education and in my 23 years of religious training on a quest to see what makes the shadows in our lives, and for me, it is easy to see the shadows everywhere, and many times I can see the shadow dancers in their true form as they cower in disgrace hoping to remain in the world of illusion. To a large extent that is what I report here every day at Overmanwarrior’s Wisdom, my observations of the shadow makers and what their motives are—as the rest of society seems content with just the images of shadows. We talk about school levy problems, public education deficiencies, philosophy, psychology, world history, politics, collectivism versus individualism, and the art of living a good, healthy life. Many who know me here believe that I’m an old-school cowboy type who wants the world to revert back to the days of John Wayne’s America—which I do. But more than that I love science, and all the possibilities that are before us, and it’s not just an anger at the progressive institutions who seem determined to take America back to the Dark Ages and reject the traditional values of American Excepetionalism, but also in the rejection of scientific discovery in favor of archaic protections of beliefs that belong to the evasive second-handlers.

I don’t wish to maintain a world that has national health care, or a Social Security system. I wish for sickness to be cured and old age to be eradicated through science. I do not wish to have a world of greenie weenie carbon credit salesmen running our governments. I wish to take manufacturing into space and onto the surface of the moon where heavy equipment can be moved easily and trash can be dumped directly into space. I do not wish one global world under socialism controlled by a few banking tyrants. I wish to spread the brilliance of the United States Constitution into China, and the countries of Africa, even Russia the art of capitalism to bring prosperity to the entire world as adventurers begin to colonize space. I don’t wish to maintain roads to the level we are today, because I want my own personal Skycar from Paul Moller so I can leave my driveway and be in Disney World just a couple hours later from anywhere in the country. Driving a car is archaic. You should just be able to plot in your coordinates and the thing will fly you to your destination while you sleep. CLICK HERE TO SEE MORE.

I’m not interested in the restricted vision of our current world. I’m not interested in learning what they like, care about, or fear, because to me, they are simply in love with the shadows because they fear the unknown. I want to know what kind of archeology we will discover on Mars, and that seems so far away right now because academic institutions aren’t even open to the discoveries on planet earth like the situation of Malden Island. CLICK HERE FOR MORE. I want to know the truth. If there are extraterrestrial influences, I want to speak with them directly—not behind the face of some goofy politician. As an American I don’t recognize any higher authority besides myself, and I don’t want a bunch of comb over politicians standing in the way of my understanding and my will to learn more. I want the infinite possibilities that are before the human race and anything that stands in the way of those possibilities is an enemy to my life of adventure.

It is sad that America has not returned to the moon. But the fact that we haven’t says to the world that our world governments wish to remain the shadow makers. They do not want to yield their monopoly on our understanding. They do not want us to discover that they are useless to us, because the discoveries that sit directly in front of the human race are infinitely productive, and beneficial. And the world of tomorrow is not destined to be enshrined in tyranny, and social apathy, but in discovery, adventure, and never-ending quests to see the makers of the next shadow on the wall. This is the fate of humanity that has been concealed by our would-be-kings to ends of preventing mankind from maturing into a fully technological society no longer dependent on leaders and their disreputable arrogance.

It’s a world so far only seen in myth, but in the case of keen observation, the myths of our culture are closer to reality than the shadow makers and their governments who cover themselves in secrecy by the funds we all send to them. All we must do is declare our independence, cut the money which maintains the façade and embrace this new world that extends beyond faith, beyond convention, into the world of tomorrow and all its possibilities.

Myth reflects reality in the eyes of an artist. Many times, the keys to understanding a deeper concept is in our fantasies in the form of fiction.

Killboy Joins the Chase: A new addition to “Tail of the Dragon”–THE NOVEL!

UPDATE — Video showing how the novel came to be supporting the pictures below can be see in the “Making Of” Tail of the Dragon series seen by CLICKING HERE!

If you have read Tail of the Dragon and would like to leave a review please do at the Amazon.com site by clicking on the picture of the car.  The book is available anywhere that books are sold. 

REVIEWS  BY PEOPLE WHO HAVE READ THE BOOK.  

Not long ago Darryl Cannon, known all around central Tennessee as Killboy took this picture of my wife and I slaying the Dragon for our first time. The road famously known as the Tail of the Dragon was such an exciting, and unique experience that it prompted me to make it the subject of my next action novel, which is about to hit bookstores everywhere!

I have since been back to slay the Dragon several times now and have come to know Killboy and Ron Johnson featured in the below video from The Discovery Channel called Hell Roads. Ron Johnson in fact was one of the first people who read the manuscript of my novel after extensive research of the area brought me into contact with Ron and Killboy to such an extent that Killboy has now been inserted into the novel as a supporting character. My publisher agreed to the late change to the manuscript which is now closed and off to production.

A novel about a place like the Tail of the Dragon must be exciting. Nothing less would be acceptable. But if early readings of the book are any indication, it appears that I may well have achieved my original goal and written what may become known as the most exciting—action packed novel in the history of the written word—and I am very proud of it. In fact, here is what Ron Johnson said after he read the early version of the novel!

Rich:

Just finished the book and am sweating profusely. Wow, what a ride !!!

Fasten your seat belts for one of the most thrilling rides ever in print. A must read for anyone who has resented being ticketed, especially on the Dragon.

Ron and Nancy Johnson, Tail of the Dragon.com

It was Ron who suggested inserting Killboy into the story. Once Killboy agreed to my use of his likeness, we were off to yet another major manuscript change coming in the final approval from my editor. Luckily my editor and publisher saw my reasoning for inserting Killboy into the fictional story of the greatest car chase to ever be conceived in print or the silver screen, because whenever one visits the Tail of the Dragon, Killboy is a big part of the overall area mythology.

In the book it is Killboy who starts what becomes billions of dollars in destruction and a political struggle that ends up all the up to the Oval Office of the White House over a simple bet. And the bet was not a hefty sum of money—but just an average hot dog that would become responsible for starting a war in America.

The book features a $20 million car that is the ultimate super hot rod but is “environmentally friendly” as it’s 700 HP engine runs off vegetable oil–another first for a story involving high-speed car chases. The story itself is dedicated to all the thrill seekers, hopeless romantics, law breakers, freedom fighters, would-be-race car drivers, back-woods philosophers, young people proving what they’re made of, and the middle-aged rediscovering their loves and passions. It’s a book dedicated to those who are sick of politics and the terrible scam of traffic tickets. This book is dedicated to everyone who fears getting pulled over by the police and has had to suffer through the pain of paying an expensive ticket. This book gives the reader the opportunity to do what everyone wishes they could do—and that’s fight back!

All that and more ended up in the final draft that just inserted Killboy’s character into the story. Everyone involved is extremely happy with the results. In fact you can read what the copyeditor had to say about her recent read of Tail of the Dragon at the below link, as well as other articles I’ve written throughout the development of the process from the time that Killboy took the picture of my wife and I, up untill the early version of the press release. Examining these links will take you deeper into the lore of the Tail of the Dragon and give you great insight into what my exciting new book is all about and why it will soon become a must read. Your life may never be the same! Just click on the hot links to discover much, much more!

Why my novel Tail of the Dragon takes place on THE FOURTH OF JULY!

The book will soon be available for pre-orders all over the country and I will pass that information along as my publisher gives it to me. It will be available wherever books are sold, so it will not be difficult to find. It is my pleasure to offer such an exciting work that I put a great deal of time and effort in. The book started off as a giant manuscript of well over 100,000 words, but my editor and the rest of the staff realized that the meat of Tail of the Dragon was in the iconic car chase which does not yield character development to action, but rather pays respect to both. I have read a lot of books over the years and in the year that Killboy took the picture of my wife and I on the Dragon we road our motorcycle nearly 10,000 miles that summer on roads from the shores of Lake Erie to the end of US 1 in Key West. And my reason for going to Key West was not to drink beer in the Bull and Whistle, but to see Hemingway’s home because I’ve always loved Ernest Hemingway as a writer. It is not my intention to be a simple dime store novelists but one who seriously examines the deep subjects of philosophy. But, who says that has to be a boring enterprise? I want my readers to have fun along the way and to come back for another ride. In Tail of the Dragon, it would seem I more than pulled it off.

Fans do not have to wait for the book to come out however to begin enjoying the Tail of the Dragon. My friend Ron Johnson has Tail of the Dragon t-shirts and posters for sale right now so feel free to visit him and check out all the exciting merchandise he has to offer. His site of course is one of the places that my Tail of the Dragon novel will be featured. Check it out!

Pedophile Teachers Escape Punishment in New York: Lakota goes to Macy’s Parade

Ahhhhh…….democracy…………isn’t it refreshing to listen to these United Federation of Teachers union members protesting the closing of schools at the Panel for Education Policy in New York? As they chant “This is what democracy looks like” these educators show what they really are—socialists. It is because of employees like these that I have absolutely no desire to fund any tax money to the Department of Education and wish not a dime of my tax money to go to my local government school of Lakota. At Lakota they had a similar protest in 2008 where they forced the school board to give teachers raises otherwise they’d walk off the job. These union educators prove they have no idea what kind of government they actually have and believe they can twist the arm of the elected representatives with protests and chaos. Yes, this is what democracy looks like. Thank God America is technically a republic and not a democracy, because if it was, there would be socialist protests like this everywhere we went.

Lucky for us the socialists in America typically reside in labor unions and government jobs so if we want to rid ourselves of their communist dreams, all we have to do is eliminate those government jobs which will force them to adopt the proper free-market mentality that built America. Because the socialists—collectivist mystics that they are have learned that when nobody is directly responsible for the tax money collected—as is the case in public education, then if they prove more violent and hostile than the government agencies who collected the tax, then the money is up for grabs. This is how many of these teachers in these videos are making well over $50K per year. In fact several are making over 100K per year, even though it’s obvious that they have very limited human skill. I would be surprised if only a handful were actually qualified to teach a young person how to tie their shoes, let alone build our youth on a philosophy they can live by. And for the record, if they embrace the religion of environmentalism, bigger government, and socialism in any form, I would consider teachers unqualified to teach American youth.

These radical socialists know that the system works in their favor the same as a screaming infant learns that by making a scene in public it will drive the mother to give it things it might not get in the quiet of home, so these socialist union workers took to the streets and showed the world what democracy looks like and it’s not pretty. The common belief among these people is that they can alter reality by screaming and chanting. The reality is that the Panel for Education Policy in Queens has been trying to figure out how to keep some of their schools open due to funding problems, and in an effort to save money; they were seeking to consolidate services. This is the same thing that is going on all across America, including my home district of Lakota. There is only so much money to go around, especially when the employees make as much money as these socialist protestors do. It’s wages and gold-plated benefits that cause most of these budget problems, yet as the PEP attempts to make financial adjustments, the union gathered to protest any cuts at all and attempted to bend even the mayor of New York over a barrel to get him to commit even more tax money to education.

You would think that the PEP could solve some of its problems by firing its employees who are their worst employees, but no—that is not allowed by the union. Because of tactics employed in the video above the UFT has influence at every level of the state and nobody is willing to fight them directly. It’s just not worth the trouble. In fact just last week, the union protected what is being called The Not So Sweet Sixteen Teachers that education officials singled out for termination ranging in wages from over $100K per year to just under $70K for excessively perverted behavior against students, which would have saved more than a million dollars in salary obligations. You can read more detail about the disgusting content of the perverted behavior at the links below.

http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2012/04/14/monsters-in-the-classroom

 

http://articles.nydailynews.com/2012-04-05/news/31296372_1_michael-mulgrew-teachers-union-president-city-teachers

 

The teachers were brought before a panel of arbitrators—state appointed lawyers paid daily rates of $1000 to $1,800 to decide their fate—and were all let off the hook able to keep their jobs and punished with much lesser charges. Meanwhile the pedophilic actions taken against the students have went unpunished, and the teachers still get to keep their very high paying jobs only to commit more crimes in the future. In fact 2 of the 16 let off are already in trouble again for the very same thing!

Yes………………this is what democracy looks like. Chaos, disorder, socialism, fear, tyranny where it is the law of the mob that rules, the screaming masses who demand payment or they will inflict pain on anyone who stands in their way. As the union president Michael Mulgrew said about the lack of ability school officials had to fire his pedophile members, they could appeal to the arbitration process in the state courts. True, they could, which would mean more lawyer fees for a process that the state-wide teachers union already had lobbyists in place to twist the arm of anyone they needed to. School officials know that justice is not possible, and their only choice is to put up or shut up.

This is a nationwide problem. It’s going on in almost every public school in the country. I’ve covered many of the problems in my home district of Lakota since I hear the news on a daily basis and the entire enterprise is a scam at best. In fact just last week the Lakota West Marching Band learned that it would be going to New York home of the UFT to perform at the Macy’s 2013 Thanksgiving Day Parade that is so popular, which is a great honor. Upon the announcement the school officials had a big auditorium assembly for the students and rained confetti down on the band members congratulating them for their great achievement. Check it out for yourself as it happened.

I watched the event with skepticism however. There was a part of me that wanted to be happy for the kids, the school and their parents, but there was another part of me—the experienced part—that knows there’s more to it. Lakota is the 7th largest excellent school system in Ohio and its union the LEA is an offshoot of the OEA. And the OEA is an offshoot of the National Education Association, and out of the 150 bands across the country that applied only 11 were invited. For the NEA after three very high-profile levy defeats at Lakota in two years–in a situation that I have been intimately involved with, so much so that it was featured recently in Forbes Magazine, (Yes LAKOTA, you are welcome for the national exposure-CLICK HERE) the union knows it needs a levy passage in Southern Ohio to maintain its power base. So I’d say that had something to do with the selection process for the Macy’s Parade. Lakota is a big political target for the union to maintain power. Not to take anything away from the kids, but unfortunately, politics is often more powerful than talent in a progressive society.

My hope is that while in New York for that parade Lakota doesn’t let the troubles involving the United Federation of Teachers, come back home with them because at Lakota soon, there will also be massive school closings as the population ages and fewer kids enroll in the school system. That means massive layoffs for positions that have an average salary amount of $63K per year. And to solve that problem will not require the chaos of democracy, but the logic of a republic. That claim to democracy can stay in New York and is not welcome on the bus with our students as they return from their grand opportunity to perform on national TV in New York City. I’ve seen what democracy looks like, and I don’t like it, want it, or desire to pay for it.

Schmoozing in Politics: The end does not justify the means–the train is leaving

For those who proclaim, “It’s not what you do in life, but it’s who you know,” you are committing a vast evil upon the possibilities of human potential. I have heard from many over the last couple months who assumed that through my work with the local school levies, and liberty groups that I was ultimately after a political position of some kind or another—that my work in those activities were to lead me to one of those “coveted government” jobs that provide so much money and security to the beholder. There was an assumption that I would idly comply as school board members and community parasites infiltrated the inner circles of my associates in an attempt to steer our offensive into a sort of–compromise. There was an assumption that I would hold my tongue when it was obvious that political ambitions and a need for money have tainted the ambition of the liberty groups, to maintain a status of good standing among the powerful. The assumption was that I had shown my skills in public discourse and my reward would be a rightful place among the politically powerful.

But that was never my intention—to be given a rightful place in the world of politics. It was never my intention to “get” something in exchange for my skill as a spokesman or crusader. Because in so doing I would break one of my personal rules that I live by every day, never to schmooze, suck-up, or gain favor of a person or entity that I otherwise might not associate with out of personal self-interest. My interest in political crusades and liberty fighting was not for gain, but out of a genuine desire to solve a problem. My work here at this site and out among the media has been simply to fix what is broken, and as I’ve gotten my hands dirty it has come to my mind that I desire to completely reinvent the entire political system. I do not wish to preserve the public education system, so I lost my desire to simply be a spokesman for a group that didn’t want to see its taxes increase. I still support the aim of such groups, but my interest has shifted. And now after two years of observation, it is obvious that the liberty groups do not have the resolve to solve the current political crises. They did not put their political effort behind the Ron Paul’s of presidential candidates, but the Mitt Romney’s. From people within my own family to trusted friends, the prospect of such a radical culture shift is just too great. Too many people are addicted to politics as usual—a system that depends on the premise, “It’s who you know.”

When a local personality or business owner says, “I know important people on council, or in the city or state government,” what they are proclaiming is that they can gain access to power that will give them an advantage over someone who doesn’t have that access. Someone seeking that type of access might take that powerful person to a baseball game, or invite them to play golf so that the exchange of favors can be placed on the table of thought. This is called schmoozing, and it is against the law in my book. In my book, the powerful person is supposed to be in service to the public, not handing out favors to their friends who have schmoozed them. If the so-called “powerful person” is a politician they have only become powerful through theft or extortion. They have intercepted tax revenue to be redistributed elsewhere, or they have the ability to write laws that can hurt one party or another. That is the source of their “power” and it is an abuse of their designated task.

I have several friends who are caught in this very snare; they spend a great deal of their time and money schmoozing people who might otherwise hurt them. It’s the old premise of “keep your friends close, but your enemies closer,” schmooze them into peace with you so that you can make a profit. Such a mentality is the same as the restaurant owner who might schmooze the mob to cut a break on “protection money” or eliminating a competitor. The same kind of thing is going on in legitimate businesses today and the golf courses of America are full of this activity. It’s may not be the mob as we think of it in the days of Al Capone, or the fictional Godfather, but the effect is the same.

Over Christmas I was invited to a popular meeting place on the high-end of reputation to celebrate the departure of a person I have a great deal of history with. I declared that I would not go because this person had become my enemy and I had no desire to break bread. It was explained to me that hatred was a powerful thing and that I might regret it later. I explained that I was fine with my level of hate. That I would not be going because my attendance would not be genuine. If I went it would be schmoozing, and I don’t do that. The person in question had earned my hatred, and it was not my task to ease their mind with forgiveness.

I have heard for years that hatred is a bad emotion, that to carry it around will erode my soul. Well—no it doesn’t. Hatred is a natural reaction to injustice and it lets the person who committed that injustice know that there are consequences for their actions. Without consequences there is no incentive for many people to do the right thing, because many do not chose to do the right thing out of a sense of justice, but out of fear of the personal impact of revenge should they cross the line. So when a pacifist speaks of not harboring hate, they are telling you to turn the other cheek to be abused again, and again and again. They will tell you that if your enemy feeds you to the lions then you should take the massacre with a clean heart and not wish ill on your enemy. That is what’s wrong with politics at every level, and the reason I reject everything about the current system. People are functioning from a weak philosophy that was given to them by history constructed by past dictators, and they accept it without question.

By default through the human tendency to build their entire lives around schmoozing for all the various combinations described above, two political parties have emerged. Liberals advocate intellectual freedom while putting their emphasis of government management on economic controls. Conservatives desire economic freedom while placing controls on the intellect. Both are wrong in their basic premise. This is the reason for our current “mixed economy” and general faults as a government. This is why young people reject activity in politics and instead play video games and watch silly television shows. Politics has become only applicable to the schmoozers of the world and until people have a need to schmooze someone, they do not engage in politics.

Now, to the schmoozers—which is most everyone—my views are considered radical. To declare that politics should be run by objective reason is a radical concept to a political system that is run by schmoozing, (who you know syndrome) Our legal system will never be fair as long as “schmoozing” from an attorney to a judge is accepted practice—which it is. Our political system can never function correctly as long as “schmoozing” (lobbyists) is accepted and openly embraced. Our politics at that point has no chance of being a representative republic, and it’s not worth saving because it’s broken at its core functioning from the wrong premise—the wrong philosophy right out of the gate.

If the definition of a radical is being the only one who believes something to the extreme opposite of accepted social behavior then so be it because in this case the accepted social behavior is wrong. America is the country that it is today not because of the decisions made during the progressive era. It was not The New Deal or the Great Society that built the skyscrapers of Manhattan, created McDonalds, or put man on the moon. It was the very brief time in American history after the Civil War where the industrial revolution was just emerging, and railroad’s made communication and transportation over vast distances possible and Washington was preoccupied with all the new developments. During that time there was a lot less “schmoozing” going on for about 20 years ending right around the McKinley administration. Pure capitalism functioned without the looters of politics sticking their hands into the process to disrupt manufacturing as leverage over their political rivals. Once politicians began doing this “schmoozing” again with one another and with business owners America fell back into a mixed economy and have cruised out the last 100 years off that small shot in the arm provided by pure capitalism. A few developments since then like the fast food industry, and the computer have managed to jump onto the scene before government could act as a regulator. But for the most part, government has stifled American productivity while attaching many socialist programs to the wealth created by capitalism such as Social Security and Medicare. It is those decisions that threaten to destroy America in the next century. The true impact of mixing the introduction of socialism with pure capitalism won’t be felt completely for another decade, but it’s coming quickly.

Instead of having a beer with those inviters of peace that night to see off an enemy and assure that particular person that I would not hunt them down for their evils against me 5 years down the road, 10 years or even 20 years in the future, I read some of the work of Niccolo Machiavelli. It was Machiavelli who proposed the term, “The end justifies the means.” What Machiavelli was proclaiming was an essential truth from the vantage point of protecting the success of the state. It is to that basic idea from Machiavelli that the art of “schmoozing” came to be, and it is why our current political system is a failure that I reject completely. It is also why I distance myself from groups when I see too much “schmoozing” going on because failure of the group will be imminent upon such action.

The ends do not justify the means if it is individual freedom that is desired. The rights of individuals are the only concern because in so doing, a society of goodness and prosperity that have only been touched remotely in America is possible. If such a philosophy could reemerge in America, then perhaps the rest of the world could have it too. But schmoozing only leads to one path, dictatorship. Just as a mixed economy will yield the benefits of pure capitalism to the tyranny of socialist state control, it all ends with one person more powerful than someone else and brings about some form of communism. That is the default mode of schmoozing, it gives one entity more power over another entity not by merit of their enterprise, but out of false obligation due to feelings and favors.

This is why I declare both political parties a complete and utter failure. The campaign donations given on both sides are a form of schmoozing and it corrupts the basis of republic government, and the more I have learned along the way, the less interested I have become in working with the current system as it is now. Rather, I seek to see it dismantled and rebuilt as a true republic with an emphasis on pure capitalism and the solitary pursuit of individual freedom for every single person on the face of planet earth. And there is no compromise. Schmoozing won’t dull the impact.

It is for the reasons above that I have decided a different approach to politics is desperately needed.  People may call it radical.  They may be very upset with me for rocking their sense of security.  They may be frustrated with my lack of tolerance.   But I do not schmooze and I do not look to others for anything in my life.  When I need to provide income for myself I write books.  A book to me is a offering of my work, talent, and imagination in exchange for something else of value, so when a fan of mine purchases a book I write, I know that an exchange of equal value has been made, and I feel good about the balance. 

I desire independence and respect for my freedoms, yet I have been given a world of schmoozers that have looted off one another incessantly for decades with schmoozing but looks to people like me to bail them out of their folly–and I’m not going to do it.  I don’t owe anybody anything and I don’t ask them to give me anything that isn’t already mine.  That is why I’m working toward a change in attitude and approach on a quest that will make many people very angry.  But that’s their problem, because they are the ones who placed themselves across the tracks of my personal freedom.   And anyone who wants to come along with me is welcome.  But my train is leaving the station, and it’s not going to stop.

THE LEA ELECTION: Lakota’s labor union is electing a new president

Come one—come all, the Lakota Education Association (LEA) is having their election for President, Vice President and Secretary. They are meeting late in the evening after all their work is complete for the day at the extreme hour of 4:30 PM on Tuesday April 17th 2012. The vote for these positions gains the new president the ability to extort money from the public for future union contracts and allows them to speak to the media about how much the local children need union labor.

However being the president of a labor union is a tough job. Candidates must be willing to eliminate any competition to public education so that the stranglehold of union monopoly can be maintained otherwise the public will figure out they can get the same teaching results for half the cost of a government school employee. Candidates must also be willing to exaggerate every aspect of their members’ professions by calling even breathing itself a hardship. They must be willing to increase the cost of the future 2014 contract in spite of the fact that there will be declining enrollment at Lakota over the next 10 years. There’s a very good chance that Lakota enrollment could go from 18,000 students to 10,000 students in the next 6 years which will mean massive layoffs of LEA employees. The future President of the LEA must keep a lid on that fact so the public doesn’t figure it out.

The future LEA President must make sure that every service offered to the community is held hostage while the members enjoy top salaries of over 63K per year and summers off. The president must be ready also to argue that any layoffs needed will be from the new teachers just hired while the old expensive ones cruise to early retirements while school buses sit idle, sports fees remain at $550 per sport, and electives are cut down to those of a third world country. The President of the LEA must not develop a guilty conscious, but must be willing to see the whole community surrounding the school system fail without yielding even a 5% reduction in wages and benefits. After all, the LEA President is not there to protect the students or their families, but the employees of the LEA.

The President of the LEA must be ready and willing to walk off the job with a strike like presidents of the past did such as in 2008. The squeaky wheel gets the grease and this is how public unions have managed to gain an average of 30% higher wages for their members over the private sector by showing a willingness to extort every dime available from the taxpayers for the benefit of their employees.

The future President of the LEA must forget that their position has no real power or influence, only in their ability to steal from the taxpayers, since all the members of the LEA are completely at the mercy of tax revenue. The LEA President is required to make the public believe that by giving the union money that the community will benefit in some way. The ideal LEA Presidential candidates should have past experience in carnival games, or working at casinos as dealers—positions that require manipulation of the public into spending their money and getting nothing back in return. This would give the future LEA President a great advantage in handling public affairs while serving the selfish needs of the union members.

It is very important that the LEA Presidents, and Vice Presidents be very well versed in The Delphi Technique and understand Saul Alinsky’s handbook Rules for Radicals. Knowledge in building a consensus is paramount to being president of a parasitic labor union, because the public must believe that the employees actually care about the public and listen to their suggestions. Through The Delphi Technique the LEA President will listen to advice from the community, but will make the community forget what those ideas are by the end of the engagement. The LEA President must be skilled in imposing their will on the community and making the community believe they played a part in arriving at those decisions. Slight-of-hand is very important and having a basic understanding of magic tricks would be very helpful.

It is important that the LEA President understand that the future of many industries is at stake if they fail to extort vast sums of money from the public. If the public stops giving tax money to the LEA union think what might happen to all the hair and nail salons in the area? If the LEA members do not continue to make more and more money, who will be able to afford going to those businesses? The same consideration must be given to the travel and tourism industry? If not for teachers being off all summer and having large disposable incomes, how many cruise ships will go out of business? How many airlines will have to close their hubs because teachers stopped traveling from the months of June through August? The future LEA President has a responsibility to not just the members of their union, but also all the businesses that depend on the services provided to the LEA members extraordinarily high compensation.

But more than anything, the LEA President must keep the union together, because it is union dues that keep the union strong. It’s the brothers and sisters in the OEA who need all the support they can get. The OEA must continue to fund the campaign of Democratic politicians so that the OEA and NEA can continue to shape the government legislature into a tyrannical entity that is destined to destroy the traditional values of America and embrace the progressive era of the United Nations.

In short the future LEA President must be the most audacious type of low-life, guiltless, parasitic, a destroyer of thinking, a con artist, they must be the epitome of the modern mystic of muscle—a thug willing to strong arm anyone who stands in their way for the good of the many—their brothers and sisters of the LEA. After all, the goal of the LEA President is to make themselves forget, as well as all their members that the intention of the labor union movement is to corrupt America with communism. The labor movement’s primary aim has been to separate individual rights from their property rights, because without the latter, the former is not possible. The goal of the communists behind the labor movement was to replace individual rights with “human rights.” The modern intellectuals of government education understand to reject the premise of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, and replace those with social justice, and equality for all so that the worst and least motivated of society can make slaves of their betters, the men and women of production. By executing this strategy it is the job of the future President of the LEA to stop war and spread peace by taking away all ambition from the world and making everyone the same by handling these tasks within the district of the Lakota School District as thousands upon thousands do the same across all of America to the drum beat of the Department of Education.

April 17th is coming quick, and this election is one of the most important for the LEA union to date. The future of progressive politics is at stake and control must be regained over a rebellious group of tax payers that has emerged in the Lakota School District to resist the might of the LEA and the power to rob, loot and pillage the wealth of West Chester and Liberty Twp. These rebels must be suppressed by the new LEA President and strength must be returned to the labor union movement before it’s too late.

Members of the Lakota School Board–be sure to post this notification on your Facebook accounts so that you can rally your “groupies” to the cause of supporting this next LEA president as the board has in the past. It’s important to present a united front to the community, especially when you want tax increases from them to take care of your friends in the LEA.  These union employees are your power base and the keys to maintaining your seats in a district that is predominately conservative.  The future is in all of your hands to maintain the status quo and the culture of “educrates” everywhere. So don’t let them down. Be sure to vote on April 17th in the Lakota West Freshman Media Center at 4:30 PM.

Have a great and wonderful day!

Kick Ass: Big Daddy and Hit Girl

You know you’ve done a good job as a parent when your kids reach adulthood and think so much of you that they give you a superhero themed birthday party because that’s how they remember what you did for them. And that’s what my kids did for my birthday yesterday. In fact, my oldest daughter and her husband wanted me to see a movie that reminded them of the way I raised her so badly, that it was the planned feature presentation of our evening together.

They had asked me what I wanted to do for my birthday and I told them I just wanted to do a little thing around the house, and maybe watch a movie with everyone over, since our schedules clash so often these days, and we don’t get many opportunities for that kind of thing anymore. After dinner, presents and cake all themed with superhero imagery my kids arranged for me to see the movie Kick Ass, which I wasn’t very excited about at first, until we started watching it.

My daughters joked about how the father named Big Daddy in the movie trained his 11-year-old daughter Hit Girl how to be an assassin by shooting her with a 9 MM pistol so she’d get used to the pain of being hit with a bullet. Big Daddy did this as part of her assassin training so she wouldn’t be rattled during combat and lose focus.

It’s a running joke in our family that I did similar things not so much with guns, but with bullwhips, and other martial art weapons all during their upbringing for much the same reason, and Big Daddy played by Nicholas Cage embodied almost perfectly the way they remembered me during their childhood.

I wasn’t sure at first if that was a good thing or a bad thing until I saw the way the film played out. I don’t watch many movies these days since my children are all grown up, so this one came and went without me noticing it too much. But it’s one of the favorite movies of my children, because it resonates with them how they now see the world due to the way I raised them.

Many parents would be critical of the way I taught my kids, with a heavy emphasis on self-preservation, large doses of independence and a tank like persistence to resist compromise. And they are successfully functioning in the world currently and aren’t radical isolationists. Quite the opposite, they have a lot of friends who seek their time and attention. They are hardly crazed lunatics. But they feel an obligation to justice and doing what’s right and good in the world, and don’t shy away from those tasks.

The reason for this is actually the theme of the movie Kick Ass. The lead character asks, “Why do millions of people like superheroes, but nobody becomes one? You’d think that someone would try?” So the lead character decides to become a superhero and through so doing, becomes a legend that creates a loyal following. His life expands dramatically for the better because of his decision as he becomes the vehicle that many people needed to find their own inner courage.

That is the lesson of the movie Kick Ass, and in a way why my kids wanted me to see it. It was their way of thanking me for teaching them to be leaders, to not wait for someone else to tell them it’s OK to act, but to have the inner confidence to just act on their own initiative. It makes them proud to know that when they watch movies like Kick Ass, that it’s not just entertainment from the realm of fantasy for them, but is actually reflective of the values I’ve given them.

The movie ends with a very over-the-top tribute to all the great serials and spaghetti westerns I showed them in their youth, but unlike other kids and their dads who just turned off the TV and did something else we actually went out in the back yard and practiced those skills to apply in real life if need be.

We always got a lot of sidelong looks from people who would wonder why we seemed to always prepare for battle because we lived in suburban neighborhoods and such preparations seemed radical. They just didn’t see the need. I would get asked all the time, “Why do you wear camouflage pants, and heavy boots everywhere you go. Its 100 degrees outside, aren’t you hot?”

My answer was, “No I’m not hot. I wear boots everywhere because you never know when you might need to kick in a window, or climb over a fence, and I like to have a little armor on my legs and feet for those occasions.”

That is usually when the conversation would end. But what those people didn’t know was that two or three times a year, I would do just those very things on occasion. You see, the world is full of bullies, thieves, and con artists, and they are always looking to pray on the weak. And when I see it, I put a stop to it or at a minimum address it.

People ask me what my family thinks of all the controversial activities I find myself involved in and the answer was obvious in the type of presents they bought me, and the way they prepared my birthday party, with a superhero theme. I can’t think of a nicer thing to give me than their understanding and the evidence that they have learned what I sought out to teach them. They could easily complain that their dad is one of the most hated personalities in all of Cincinnati, but they don’t, because they know that the hatred comes from the same types of factions who hated Big Daddy in Kick Ass. And they let me know that they are as loyal to me now as young adults as they were when they were the age of Hit Girl. And that is the best gift I could receive for a birthday.

The reason more people don’t become superheroes, like it was asked in the movie Kick Ass is because it’s hard. Most everyone dreams of becoming one, but few people embrace the mentality to commit their entire lives to the act of fighting for justice. I taught my girls that they didn’t have to have special powers to be superheroes, just superhuman will, and a desire to never become complacent. As I watched Kick Ass I was very proud to know that my two daughters reminded me of Hit Girl especially at the end as she avenged her father Big Daddy in the film. It’s good to know who has my back and that they are prepared to do whatever it takes to live out their commitment to justice.

What a wonderful birthday!

Going on the Attack: Being one of the strong–living to the fullest

It’s my birthday today and I’m going to enjoy it the way I enjoy most—reading. One of my favorite authors of late is Ayn Rand, the beleaguered woman from the past who dared to challenge 10,000 years of human thinking and upset the apple cart of civilization tremendously. I find her work wonderfully refreshing and most enjoyable.

But life for Ayn was not a pleasant experience. There is no question that her novels directly took on the philosophies of Plato, Kant and many others expanding to a level that Friedrich Nietzsche danced around before going mad—Ayn Rand figured it out without madness. And her stories are wonderful contributions to human culture that hold the key to mankind’s future. But it took almost 50 years for society to begin to appreciate Ayn Rand which was much to her personal distress. This was the topic of discussion with Barbara Branden at a talk about the 50th anniversary of Atlas Shrugged and in general the disappointment Ayn Rand had in realizing that the men and women of her books stayed silent and did not come to her defense when it counted most, during her lifetime.

Two weeks ago an angry letter writer sent me a note letting me know that their beloved teachers union was going to expose me as a woman hating, Ayn Rand worshipper, and that the power of my influence was coming to an end. My response to this person was how could I hate women if I love Ayn Rand? But what I didn’t tell the letter writer was that I have not always known about Ayn Rand, yet I have found that my own thoughts about things almost directly parallel hers, and I arrived at those conclusions without ever reading a single word of her work, but in discovering the “truth” through observation. I arrived at the truth through deductive reasoning, and no matter how one arrives at the truth, it is what it is. When a mind arrives at the truth whether it be me, or Ayn Rand, or some other thinker—it has it’s characteristics of reality that are unmistakable and universally experienced.

I have asked the same questions that Ayn Rand asked, “Where are the strong among us? Why do men desire to become intoxicated when it reveals they are weak? Why do humans pander to their weaknesses when it is strength that should be valued? Why do humans worship sacrifice as one of their highest concepts when it’s the ability to create that advances all life? And why do men and women who comprehend the answers to these questions hide from the parasites of the world?” Rand in the video above questioned why the “men of the mind” did not come to her rescue when she faced an angry world of parasites who wanted to silence her. It is because the “men of the mind” chose to stay hidden like her characters in Atlas Shrugged. They retreated to their condos, their books—to their solitude so to avoid the parasites of existence, and they did not come out just because Ayn Rand wrote a book to motivate them. They simply did as she suggested in Atlas Shrugged, they “quit the world.”

I haven’t been so lucky to free my mind with such surrender. As I recently read Leonard Peikoff’s book on Objectivism I discovered that I virtually held almost every concept of that philosophy word for word, but my arrival there was not by any guidance. It was by a quest of the truth even when the world said to behave otherwise. This tendency of mine has caused me a lot of trouble—and I mean————-A LOT OF TROUBLE. But I never understood why, since my intentions were ALWAYS to be good, and do what’s right.

When I was growing up and going to Sunday School at the age of 6 to 7 years old I used to get into terrible trouble when we’d sing the song–

“Jesus loves me! This I know,
For the Bible tells me so;
Little ones to Him belong,
They are weak but He is strong.
Yes, Jesus loves me!
Yes, Jesus loves me!
Yes, Jesus loves me!
The Bible tells me so.”

I would stop singing the song on that fourth line and my Sunday school teacher would berate me. “Rich Hoffman—you have to sing the whole song. Everyone else is!”

I’d say, “but it’s a lie—I’m not weak.”

“We are all weak and we need the grace of our lord to prop us up in times of weakness,” she’d say to me.

“I don’t have moments of weakness,” I’d say. Then I’d be punished and the teacher would tell my parents what a bad boy I was in class.

This went on for the next 11 years at my church and I never yielded, and they never gave up trying to convince me otherwise. I recently went back to that church and one of the older women there who remembered me from those days said, “You were the troubled one,” referring to my siblings who didn’t resist authority the way I did.

I had the same trouble in public school as has been well documented here. I never had a hard time understanding what the teachers were trying to say. I had a difficulty allowing my time to be imprisoned by the teachers and students personal limitations—since public school is built around a mediocre life approach–I thought they were stealing my time, and I treated them as though they were running a prison.

In my private life, I have had nothing but trouble interacting with the limitations most people place on themselves. I asked many times where the men and women of strength were, just as Barbara described above. Again, many of my stories are reported here at Overmanwarrior’s Wisdom.

My hunger for strength in human character took me to the work of Nietzsche, specifically his great book Thus Spoke Zarathustra. My oldest daughter who has watched me intensely for many years noted all the conflicts I’ve had and once she became older I explained to her that “most of society wants to place shackles upon your mind. They do not want to see you pull too far out in front of them. They do not want you to make them feel guilty for being less than they know they should be, so they throw stones and attempt to beat you into submission. That is when I use their skin as a flag on our flagpole.” She understood the context of my comments because she’s been there and seen how difficult it’s been, and I didn’t want her to feel she had to surrender her life to the parasites of existence. Additionally I told her “I don’t know how this ends, this line of thinking I’m on. Most people who think the way I do go mad since their version of reality and the reality of the rest of the world are so far apart.”

Nietzsche went crazy just a few years after he wrote Thus Spoke Zarathustra. Many will say the disease of his mind was natural, but I believe that if the mind and body finds itself overwhelmed by too many contradictions with reality the thinking mind tends to turn on itself. The same thing happened to Robert Pirsig author of Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance. Society put him through electro shock treatments in an attempt to “straighten out” his mind. He collapsed into himself by the weight of his realizations.

Recently a respected businessman asked me, “why do you do it—why do you find yourself in so many conflicts?”

I reported, “Because the conflicts deserve to be fought. Because not fighting them is yielding to the imposition of aggressors who do not know what they are doing. So to yield to them is to yield to evil.”

He’d said to me in reply, “Evil—really—nobody talks like that anymore. That kind of language is—out-of-touch.”

“By their doing,” I replied. “The way for evil to advance is for nothing to stand in its way. If they belittle attempts to identify them they remove their opposition from the battlefield.”

“But everything isn’t a fight,” the man said to me.

“Yes—it is,” I said.

I ran into Ayn Rand by reading a book about Ronald Reagan and was delighted to learn that Rand used similar terms that I loved from the work of Nietzsche. A few months after reading this Ronald Reagan book I heard from my friend Doc Thompson who was at 700 WLW at the time that one of Ayn Rand’s books was being made into a movie and that it would be considered a Tea Party friendly film. So I did what I could to help promote the film locally primarily through my site here at Overmanwarrior’s Wisdom generating enough interest to bring a presentation to Cincinnati since the production was on a limited distribution budget. That’s when I decided I needed to actually read the book of the film I was promoting, so I picked up Atlas Shrugged and read it. That was the first time I read Ayn Rand.

Needless to say I loved the book. I can understand why it’s the second most read book at the Library of Congress behind The Bible because it cuts to a truth that is missing from our human dialogue. I view Atlas Shrugged as the missing link in human understanding and is a paramount work of philosophy. I know that because I’ve read most of them. I can’t believe that I didn’t run into Ayn Rand sooner, but in some ways I’m glad I didn’t, because I find that her characters parallel my own experiences and have much more truth to me now. I don’t know that if I had run into Atlas Shrugged earlier, that my own experiences would be authentic to my life, but might reside in my mind as being parallel to the life of John Galt. Ironically when my son-in-law read Atlas Shrugged he told me that I reminded him of that iconic figure, and there is a part of my mind that finds that refreshing. There is a pride to be had when it’s realized that the life you’ve led reminds your son-in-law of such a character in an epic book. That means I must have been doing a great deal right along the way, and has given me a certain reassurance that my beliefs all along have been more than correct.

My emphasis on the value of Atlas Shrugged is due to the precise fact that I’ve read somewhere over 500 books and it is only Atlas Shrugged that offered a truth about life to the level I can validate proper and I’m glad I found it later than sooner. Not everyone will have the experience that I’ve had, since many would find my stance toward life uncomfortable. But due to my experiences, and feeling many times compelled to bend my will to those of the collective mindset around me, I can say with complete honesty that it is only John Galt who reflects accurately my own politics and life philosophy closer than any other character in literature. And it was a remarkable feat for Ayn Rand to capture such a concept in her mind.

I am glad to have read the work of Robert Pirsig before the work of Rand however, because it was Pirsig not Rand who explained why the character of John Galt is so proper, and ironically the goals I have set for myself my entire life is correct. Pirsig actually defined why Rand’s characters are proper in their outlooks on living—it is because they position their lives at the front of the “train” of thinking. Rand simply made the observation that certain types of people carried the world on their backs. Pirsig figured out why, even though it drove him to a level of insanity to arrive at those conclusions. But the concept itself was worth its weight in value upon the human race.

The mess the world currently finds itself in can be traced back to writers like Thomas More, H.G. Wells, Marx, Bernard Shaw and many, many others who shaped the modern world of progressive thought to the level it’s at today. Politicians followed those writers in forming their thinking and everything proceeds down hill from there. I became so fed up with that progressive world when a literary agent from Wilshire Blvd in Hollywood told me that my script The Lost Cannibals of Cahokia was “unrealistic, audacious, but was also breathtakingly exciting, yet way too political—that audiences would never be able to identify with the characters. You must rewrite more human weaknesses into these characters.” In anger I threw the script back on the shelf and dropped the pitch sessions where that particular script resides to this very day waiting for a time when movie producers come to understand the economic value of such characters. It can just sit there forever for as much as I care. CLICK HERE FOR MORE DETAIL. I knew at the time that I was right even though the whole industry told me I was wrong, and in the back of my mind I wondered if I was the only one in the world who thought this way—until I finally read Atlas Shrugged. It was then that I saw from a woman—a former Hollywood screenwriter, a glimpse from the past and future at the same time, into the minds of those who lived their lives in the front of Pirsig’s train, people like Walt Disney, Leonardo da Vinci, Albert Einstein, Warner Von Braun and the modern-day Richard Branson. The world should strive to be like those people, not the broken down derelict Karl Marx, Stalin, or Mao.

The failure is in the basic philosophies of the human race and through our history there have been moments of brilliance that has emerged, but overall, the basic idea of sacrifice before production has led mankind down a perilous path that has led to continuous cycles of cultures that rise, and fall based on their failed philosophies. I’ve seen it all my life, and people told me I was wrong. But it was they who were wrong, and it took me over 40 years to become comfortable with that conclusion. Along the way, I can honestly understand why Ayn Rand’s men and women of strength stayed hidden, because they did not want to be pummeled by the mob of collectivists and pulled to shreds by people who want to consume their essence simply because they are producers.

Atlas Shrugged as well as the other work of Ayn Rand is a uniquely American philosophy built upon the observations that made the United States the greatest country on earth in the history of mankind. Her work is a direct challenge to the entire motivation of the human race and she offers the first valid solution to many of our social problems since the time of Aristotle. Naturally the people who have built their lives around the wrong philosophic principles will be upset, and they will fight for their right to be stupid, because it’s all they know. But I can personally validate the work of Ayn Rand and can see the uniqueness of it based on my personal observation. It has confirmed in me a lifetime of observation and asking the same questions Rand wondered when she published her epic book.

But I will take it one step further than she did, I will not assume that the strong men and women of the world will come out of their hiding places to rally together against the forces of evil—evil here being defined as a collectivist, parasitic society. I will instead push back against the fools without care as to their peril by myself if need be. I will no longer care what happens to those who place themselves in the way of goodness. I have seen too much evil committed on the good intentions of the many only to be twisted to evil ends without understanding why it happened. “The good of the many do not out weigh the needs of the few,” sorry Spock. That method of thinking does not work, it has never worked, and it will never work. I’m not going to go along with it any longer.

In my next 40 years I am not going to allow myself to be a target for the frustrations of the collective, as those who think like me have been for years, and why the human beings of exception hid in the darkness to let Ayn Rand take all the ridicule that she would take to her grave. One foot can crush a million ants, and that is the way to begin thinking of the power the individual has over all forms of collectivism. It may be true that they outnumber us—but they do not match our intellects, or our will. They are the living dead sacrificing one moment of their lives for the next only to end up at the end depleted by their masters, and that is not my path.

So on my birthday I will celebrate the words of Ayn Rand and let my own brain rest for the day and relish this personal declaration of independence. There is nothing wrong with challenging 10,000 or even 100,000 years of human dedication to the wrong philosophy if you can prove that it is wrong—and at age 44, I am convinced that it has been. And I’m not going to go along with it any longer. I’ve tried to get along for the sake of keeping the peace, and it hasn’t worked. I’ve found myself in endless conflict anyway. So appeasing the collectivists won’t bring about peace—all it does is allow evil to advance it’s position with my assistance—and that has to stop.

For those who don’t want to go through the trouble that I have described above, that I have experienced in my personal life, I’d suggest study in the philosophy of Objectivism as a starting point. That is the best way to get quickly to the side of righteousness, and the fast track to the next great movement upon the face of the earth—a philosophy that will endure well into the next 100,000 years—Objectivism.

The key to living this full life and solving the answers to all of societies current problems are in the philosophy of Objectivism.  CLICK BELOW TO BEGIN YOUR NEW EDUCTION

A Grim Reality for Lakota Employees: Life as they know it will change dramatically

As my readers here know, I love to read and write in the early morning—and occasionally I like to do these things outside so I can hear the birds. In fact many of you might wonder if I have some dire obsession with birds. But believe me, my relationship with them is one of mutual benefit. I put food out for them, and they in turn land on my shoulder and whisper in my ear. Some of these birds come directly from the Lakota School System and tell me things that are going on there, which I appreciate.

One such little bird landed on my shoulder the other day and tweeted a wonderful message that I found very interesting. It was a report that Lakota West is graduating 1000 students this year and is not replacing them with new students next year. In fact West Chester as a community lacks start-up oriented homes that most young people can purchase and will not be adding any students in the subsequent years and that this is a concern within the halls of Lakota Administration.

Most parents with school age children simply cannot afford the $250K homes that populate most of West Chester and Liberty Twp until they’ve invested in a starter home first to accumulate the down payment on a larger home off the value gained from their starter. But with real estate values flat lining due to the recent bubble that has burst all over the country, an investment in a starter home ($100K or less) is not happening. Compound that small fact with the reality that many young people are coming out of college without a high paying job to build a life with, and instead find themselves with over $50K in student loan debt and a job at a local fast food restaurant to pay their basic bills.

The Lakota School System and their minions of latté sipping levy advocates have thought and still do that anyone who opposes a school levy increase is the embodiment of an evil to them of the worst sort. What they haven’t accounted for was that levy fighters were always preparing for this day where the explosive growth that the teachers union salivated over in Liberty Twp and West Chester would bottom out, and the community would have to adjust if it wanted to remain successful. And driving up costs on businesses and per pupil costs in the classroom is a recipe for community failure. Just look at the Princeton School District, once considered the best in Cincinnati. Their per pupil costs are over $15K per student, because their expenses are tied up in high salaries established in the days of economic boom, which is now gone. Lakota, and Mason were the benefactors of Princeton’s decline and will experience the same cycle.

The values of many homes in the affluent communities of Lakota are tanking, not because the school is bad, or the fight over tax hikes scared away potential investors, it’s because there are not enough qualified candidates able to buy a $300K home at the start of their child rearing years. So to sell that $300K home, it might only be attractive to a new family who will only buy the home off foreclosure for $200K which pulls down the value of everyone’s homes. That’s very bad for all the families who bought homes expecting a 5% to 10% increase in their home values, because like their 401K’s, they will lose that perceived value. It’s guaranteed at this point, a reality that must be faced.

Lakota as a community must adjust if they want to stay great in the coming years and survive this next period of easy growth that the real estate agents who advocate on behalf of school levies drool over. They are of course upset because if you’re in real estate, it’s easy to sell a $300K home to a duel income professional family in their early 30’s and convince them to sign up for a $4000 yearly property tax bill because the money comes easy to these young parents and they are still kids themselves—and unsure of how they will perform as parents. So the knowledge that a school can fill that insecurity makes for an easy sale of an expensive home. But along the way, affordable homes were not built, so if those jobs went away for those young professional couples, then so would the ability to buy such large homes, and the market would dry up.

Liberty Twp—the little bird told me—has stabilized its growth, but it appears that Lakota will have to remap their district. There will soon be empty buildings in Lakota West because of the exodus of students and no young people to replace the graduating classes, so some of the students from Liberty Twp will have to be bused down to Lakota West buildings to fill their vacancies. This will create another problem that the union at Lakota will have to confront—there will be massive job losses at Lakota as there will not be a need to keep so many employees on staff.

Currently Lakota is staffed to handle 18,000 students, but that number could easily decline to under 15,000 students in just a few years as the community of West Chester is emerging into more retirement aged residents without children in the district. Lakota has acknowledged that their salary and benefit packages are comparable to our current Social Security models and are unsustainable. This is why they are hoping that the state of Ohio will change the way schools are funded, because with declining property values paying less tax, and fewer students enrolling, there is no reason to keep all the employees they have at Lakota. Paying an average salary of over $63K per year to fulfill their union contracts is just not feasible.

This is the reason for my anger at the school district and the blind advocates of more school levy increases–it’s their destructive short-sightedness and selfish imposition on the world around them. Even knowing this information as I write this, the superintendent is planning to propose another tax increase on the community for the fourth time, when the solution is right in front of her face. She will have to cut—much more deeply than they have even considered up to this point. They are going to have dramatically reduced student enrollment and will not be able to staff at the levels they currently are. And the reason we’ve fought so hard to keep taxes down for businesses and residents is because a successful community is not just built around a school system–it has to have jobs and services to sustain its population and remain attractive to homeowners even after their children have graduated.

As the little bird flew away and I watched the sun rise I realized how preposterous a levy increase would be now in 2012. A school simply doesn’t need $240 million to $155 million to operate per year when you’re losing 1000 students each year for the next 5 to 6 years. Even if Liberty Twp resumes construction of new homes it will not surpass the stoppage of building in West Chester that will be occupied by residents who no longer have children in the district, and young people cannot afford to buy these homes even if they wanted to. So Lakota will be dealing with declining enrollment every year for perhaps the next 20 years. They have seen their peak employment days and must now concentrate on being a great school with far less employees than they have now and in fewer buildings to maintain.

History will prove that is was now that our community decided whether or not to succeed or fail based on where we put our priorities. Because the math does not add up for a growing school district far into the future. The opposite is true, and the levy advocates at Lakota are in denial of these facts, which makes them dangerous. But they aren’t very dangerous if nobody listens to them, or their self-centered perception of the world. It is ironic that places of learning lack the ability to even grasp the mathematics of this situation to apply in the real world. But as the little bird said, Lakota is well aware of these problems. Lakota is simply in denial of the timeframe they have to react properly.

It will be interesting to see how Lakota attempts to glaze over these facts. I wonder if the newspapers will report these stories of decline, or will they just report what the superintendent utters in public relations controlled memos? Time will tell……………………….

Wicked Games: The 9/11 Conspiracy and guilty parties–“Fire Walk with Me”

Warning–some of this material is very abstract, but I include it because abstract understanding is needed to comprehend the depth of deception involved in the 9/11 Conspiracy.  I would highly suggest watching every video below in great detail even if their immediate meanings cannot be realized at first impression.  I received a note from a good friend and frequent reader here at Overmanwarrior’s Wisdom about my thoughts of the many rumors swirling around the whole 9/11 issue, which falls into the realm of conspiracy theory. I try not to speculate on things that do not have observable facts, but in the case of the 9/11 tragedy, there are many trends that have emerged that conveniently support the kind of world many fear is becoming a global-wide totalitarian government and correct context is needed to understand. The length of that context would require some back story which took time to build at this site so proper explanations could be provided as to my thinking on the matter. For ease of your mind dear reader I provide four documentaries today for you to study intensely. It is because of documentaries like these and blog sites like this one that the federal government wants to control the internet, because they don’t want the “masses” to have access to these stories. The government has worked very hard for half a century to create a “compliant” society and they thought they had this 9/11 situation in the bag by making it a conspiracy theory by way of study and placing all those who question the facts of 9/11 under the derogatory name of “truther.” But as we’ve seen recently, even the White House is openly playing the conspiracy game by releasing a fake birth certificate under pressure from Donald Trump so that they could attempt to paint Trump as a “birther,” and eliminate him as a presidential threat. However, the document the White House produced was in fact a fake, and for reasons only they can answer, continue to hide the truth of the President’s birth with shadow games instead of frankness—most likely to conceal their real intentions that are much more sinister.

Most people are not as manipulative as the characters involved in the stories described here today, and they don’t want to believe that these things are possible. This is by design of course; as most of us were trained as children in the public education system and it was under this system that “name calling” first shaped our thoughts. In public education peer groups are established to divide up our population into voting blocs that can be easily controlled, and this too is by design. Public education is not about preparation for college academics, or learning to read, write, or study history. It’s about learning which peer group one belongs to. One learns by coercion between peer groups—name calling, forcible conflict, etc, so that under an animalistic pecking order mentality, the human mind finds its place in the chain of command of social group behavior.

Many of the players in public education who simply hold a job do not understand that this was always the goal of public education, and they too, do not want to believe such things—but the Department of Education established under Jimmy Carter in 1979 and experienced its first years under Ronald Reagan made it very clear what the role of public education was on American society. Mass control of peer groups was one of the objectives. Listen to the second in command at the Department of Education under Reagan to hear these things for yourself. (CLICK HERE)

One of my favorite filmmakers, David Lynch has put his name to the films both above and below about 9/11 truth. I enjoy Lynch’s films for all the reasons I love Finnegan’s Wake by James Joyce, it’s because Lynch looks behind the scenes at the motivating factors behind the human mind. He did this with the Twin Peaks films to great effect. I personally think Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me is the scariest movie I have ever seen in my life. It is my kind of horror film and requires a certain development in the mind to understand. I showed this movie to my children at ages 9 and 10 years old so that they would understand how to see things in society by reading the codes of behavior patterns. That film is also why Chris Isaak is one of my favorite musical performers. You can see one of my favorite scenes at the 4:30 second mark below where Chris Isaak, David Lynch and Kiefer Sutherland get a message. David Lynch, the director, is the one who delivers the message. The translation of that message follows in the next scene. It is one of the great puzzle works in film that few people understand but is quite remarkable. Everything in the movie means something, just like in real life so I will place some of my favorite moments of this great film throughout this post to entice further review.

Lynch is also the director of two other movies I love, Wild at Heart and Blue Velvet. Lynch deals with the dirt under the grass in his films, and it requires a clear understanding of an intellectual aptitude to grasp. Unfortunately for many of us, that aptitude is robed from society during their public education years—and it’s done on purpose. Thus, my desire to see public education replaced in favor of a more competitive model not run by a government controlled monopoly and the Department of Education.

If David Lynch is involved in a project I tend to give it attention, and his thoughts about 9/11 mirror my own. So let’s take a dark journey down the rabbit hole together dear reader and study the dirt below the grass involving the tragedy of 9/11. Like most things in the human world there are layers of truth and layers of deceit. Few people in the process are privy to all the layers so that they can have reliable deniability, which is how good people unknowingly pave the way for evil. The architects of this deceit protect their mechanisms by the built-in characteristics of derogatory name calling, so to keep the human herd in check and under control.

I have a good example of this process that I personally went through just a few weeks ago, where I called a group of school levy supporters here at Overmanwarrior’s Wisdom “latté sipping prostitutes” which created a personal media firestorm against me as my political opponents cut up my comments and assembled them in a way to attempt to convince the city of Cincinnati that I was a “woman hater.” So let me explain how the process worked on the microcosm so we can understand how it works at the macrocosm. The school superintendent at Lakota views me as her number one obstacle to obtaining more taxes and bailing out the school from their excessively high union contracts. So between her and the new vice president of our school board they went through all my writing here to find something they could twist around in some way to excite their base. (CLICK HERE FOR THE BACKSTORY) Once they found something they thought they could work with, the VP put it on her Facebook edited in a way to anger her political tag-alongs. Within a few days I began receiving threatening letters and promises that I was going down because I was a woman-hater and they were going to run me out of their community. The progressively educated superintendent and VP knew that women are a bloc voting group and have been trained to behave similarly at the ballot box. If stirred up in manipulative ways women voters can be steered to act as a collective. This is why President Obama is attempting to use Planned Parenthood to win over women voters. Women voters in politics are viewed similarly as the black vote, and the Latino vote. They aren’t respected as individuals, but as a group collective. So the superintendent assumed that if she could get the women of the community against me by twisting my comments around on me, then I would lose their votes in the next election. So the politics of our local school assumes that women will all vote together in spite of the facts if a common enemy to their social welfare can be identified. By attempting to make me into that enemy, the superintendent hedged her bets that I would be removed from the political debate of the next tax increase.

Oddly, the media, all of whom know me very well, played right into the act because the accusation of hating women is very difficult to overcome once it’s established. My comments about latté sipping prostitutes were aimed at a specific group of levy supporters as my way to identify their reckless behavior in our community and my opinion of their merit. But the words were turned to attempt to paint me as a sexist and a woman-hater, and many independent parties jumped on the bandwagon of emotion to arrive at conclusions that were clearly false—but became a reality in public opinion. The superintendent did not participate in the scandal by order of The Department of Education or the teachers unions all of whom salivate daily that I might be silenced. She did it on her own out of her own self-preservation. But ultimately the superintendent is a product of her teaching, which goes back to the modes of thinking established at The Department of Education. So without realizing what piece of the puzzle she was, the superintendent acted out her part of the conspiracy against a threat to the education system—in this case, me. There were many hands in the conspiracy, but none of them sat in a meeting and said, “Let’s take Rich Hoffman down by doing this.” They simply played the system as it was built-in all of us at a primal level of deductive reasoning. The players involved hoped they could win the next election by simply calling me a name, so they utilized the system of manipulation and hoped the results worked in their favor.

With 9/11 the same derogatory methods are conjured up to steer people away from giving any credence to conspiracy theories that fall outside of the official commission report released on the matter. The public is supposed to blindly accept that the government was able to admit its own failure in allowing terrorists to train in Florida and to get on airplanes hijacking them to run into the World Trade Center to destroy the symbols of the American economy. And we are supposed to believe that a religious extremist living in some desert mountains with a porn addiction came up with the elaborate plan all on-his-own, and that the same man was able to evade United States punishment for over a decade thereafter while Google Earth was photographing every inch of the planet for casual surveillance. (Just imagine what type of surveillance the CIA has.) And it wasn’t like bin Laden was found in the mountains of the Himalayas or somewhere in the back country of Siberia, he was found in Pakistan, where he was rumored to be all along. We are also supposed to believe that once he was killed, he was dumped quickly at sea without a lot of media attention to honor his religion, which most people accepted without question.

Let’s assume all that is true—let’s also look at what we know. 9/11 eroded the freedoms greatly in America by creating the Department of Homeland Security and the controversial TSA. American debt has skyrocketed since 2001 because of 9/11 which was one of the intended objectives from our enemies—to slowly bleed America of its economic lifeblood. We also know that Muslim extremists have infiltrated our government at many levels; we know that a Shadow Party is working behind the official parties, and we know there are many things wrong with the current president’s eligibility which isn’t even being dealt with. We have seen the Obama administration openly mislead the public over the birth certificate issue. Just this last week the Obama administration attempted to paint a picture of the validity of the congress ran by Nancy Pelosi as it shoved through a Health Care Bill under much controversy and ran up a tremendous national debt and spoke about why the Supreme Court should respect congress by upholding his Health Care Law, but turned around and also stated that he—the president—would by-pass congress with executive orders for the good of the country and that the economy was congresses fault under John Boehner, which are obvious misstatements and attempts at manipulation—if not out-right lies. We know that sleeper agents from the former KGB have infiltrated our government and helped shape the hippie movement in our nation infecting American college campuses with desires for communism. We also know that labor unions at the leadership level are attempting to fulfill the objectives of Socialist International. And we know that several billionaire philanthropists, namely Warren Buffett and George Soros are looking to get even more personal wealth through using the influence of the Shadow Party to use the “green movement” of global socialism (progressivism) to fulfill their personal portfolio strategies. Buffet’s railroad benefited from Obama’s maneuver to not build the Keystone Pipeline, and Soros benefited from the United States policy against drilling and instead investing in Brazilian oil which Soros owns. (ALL OF THIS IS COVERED AT THIS SITE FOLKS. IF YOU WANT TO READ THE ARTICLES FROM THE PAST JUST GOOGLE OVERMANWARRIOR’S WISDOM, THEN A FEW KEY WORDS FROM THIS PARAGRAPH) There’s simply too many articles to hotlink them all.

So is it so hard to believe that members of this Shadow Party manipulated the events of 9/11 to their advantage? It isn’t to me. I believe that radical fundamentalists who hated America did train in Florida to end their lives by running commercial planes into the World Trade Center. But I also believe they had little birds whispering in their ears all along. I do not believe President Bush had his hand in the conspiracy, and I doubt any one member of the CIA or FBI did either. I believe there were a lot of games being played behind the scenes to study the terrorist behavior of these radical cells, and I believe that some of the games within the games were where the evil originated. I don’t believe those terrorists on those planes acted alone, but it was the whispers from the Shadow Party that fed money to both political parties who is at fault, and nobody points the finger at them, because society is in denial of the Shadow Party’s very existence—how can you blame something that doesn’t exist? You must first come to terms with that dire fact before you can place the blame for a tragedy upon their necks.

It is obvious by how government expanded after 9/11 that there was a mind behind the tragedy ready to leap. The plan was already in the works and the puppet presidents of Bush and Obama simply needed to maintain the figurehead role of signing bills as their advisors instructed them of what to do. This culminated in perhaps the most evil piece of legislation ever passed through our government, the NDAA Act signed into law on New Year’s Eve, 2011 and being announced the morning of New Years Day 2012 as America prepared to watch the last of its big college football games for the year. The overwhelming support by most federal politicians and the double-talk by President Obama convinced me that much of what was shown in the movies above is 95% real. I think maybe 5% is unproven speculation.

So you know that you have been attacked, not just by some enemy from across the ocean, but by people who you employ as a tax payer. You are their boss, yet you do nothing about it. And to keep you from learning more, they are working very hard to shut down your freedom to the internet so you can’t read articles like this one, and watch movies like the ones shown here.

The goal of an aggressor, just like my situation described at the beginning of this article is to cast an aspersion toward a threat and force that threat to react in a predictable manner. Once a manipulator understands the basics of human reaction the aggressor can always control a threat by forcing them to reveal their defense. In the case of 9/11 threats are isolated by the term “truther.” If the members of the Shadow Party were not concerned about these theories, they would not be looking to shut down the speculation by controlling internet content and other avenues of conspiracy theory. It was Cass Sunstein who recently proposed that conspiracy theories be removed from public speech altogether, that coming from the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs under President Obama. Without question Cass and his kind view such wild speculation as being destructive to his goals in government. But what Cass and his kind don’t understand is that it may well be that the people who pay his salary with tax dollars may not want the kind of goals he has for government. We don’t want to be misled with silly tokens of information and driven like cattle into a pin of governments design. And that is what has happened with 9/11.

Yes, there is more to the story. I’d go so far to say that there is a lot more to the story, and much of that story is buried deep under the grass. But if you develop the ability to think, and to function outside of the controlled responses established in public education and free your mind to all possibilities, not just the ones given to you by those who desire to be your princes and kings, then the real truth is within grasp—and the truth about 9/11 is that airplanes ran into the World Trade Center and killed a lot of people, wrecked our economy, and terrorized our people into giving up their freedoms in the name of safety—which was the goal of our enemies. But the truth that has not been told is that all the enemies of that action did not perish in the crash, or were not captured in Pakistan and dumped into the sea quickly to be removed from public debate. No, the other enemies who number in the thousands are still hidden in the grass and they still plot the complete destruction of the United States of America in favor of a one world government with open borders from one nation to the next. And the political rule of that world government will be progressive in the mode of Socialist International. The United States is under attack from foreign and domestic enemies because we are the only free country on earth, and we are in the way of this world dictatorship. And the attack of 9/11 was designed to bring America to its knees within two decades, and we are well on our way to complete destruction now. No, the enemies did not perish but still reside in the grass hidden from the eyes of reality. They hide in plain sight because our minds have been trained not to see them, and this is how they do their menace.

9/11 was a tragedy, but it’s not nearly as catastrophic as losing the last free country on earth as a result of our sadness. Just like with a school levy tax increases, or any political maneuver, the bullies of the world seek to steal from you something that is yours in personal freedom by flooding your mind with sadness and fear to provoke you to act as they intend you to. And that is what 9/11 was all about and why it continues to do its work as the American consciousness is not able to grapple with the magnitude of constitutional infractions that followed in the years thereafter and continue to escalate under our own funding through taxation. The belief that people could not be so bad and sinister is proving the menace to our nation correct—that people refuse to see what is right in front of their face because the facts are just too difficult to comprehend. Unfortunately, freedom is not fit for such cumbersome minds, only tyranny and eternal slavery as those who surrender logic to the aggressors of terror will soon discover.

David Lynch, the director of Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me, my favorite horror film of all time, is a suitable link to this story. His appearance in Invisible Empire is rational if you take into account his construction of the story Twin Peaks. That particular film is essentially the fictional story of the murder of Laura Palmer, a tortured young woman who is haunted by characters in her life driven by inner demons. In the last video clip showed above, it is in this scene that Laura has realized that the man who has been raping her since she was a little girl is not the wild man “BOB” who she thought hid behind her dresser in her bedroom. Her actual rapist has turned out to be her father, Leland. So in that particular scene Laura’s mind had just been shattered when she is forced to acknowledge that the character Bob was an invention of her own imagination, because she couldn’t deal with the trauma that her molester was in fact her father.

Leland knows that his daughter has discovered this and fears that she might reveal the nature of their relationship to the outside world where Leland is a respected member of the Twin Peaks community. Leland has managed to keep his daughter quiet all these years of night-time rapes by scaring her with displays of power. Leland attempts to put Laura back into that fearful state by commanding her to wash her hands before she eats, in an obvious attempt to gain control of her mind. The tragedy of Twin Peaks is that Laura can no longer stay in a state of ignorance because she has learned too much. So her father kills Laura and dumps her body into a river which is the cause of the FBI investigation in the film. The blue rose shown in the first clip signifies that the case has supernatural implications.

Although Twin Peaks is a fictional scenario, it is a useful piece of fiction in developing the ability of beholding many difficult concepts at the same time so that a story can be pieced together. And this ability is needed to understand the mystery behind 9/11. The destruction of the World Trade Center was a “FALSE FLAG” operation implemented by fanning the flames of radical Islam into achieving the ultimate goal of destroying building 7, for reasons we have no way of understanding without more evidence. While the World Trade Center was a massive target that overwhelmed the minds of America, there simply wasn’t any room to deal with the impact of the losing Building 7. And that was the objective behind the minds that fanned the flames and set up the circumstances for the terrorists to climb in the “open window” and carry out their deeds of murder. While the Taliban justifiably took all the blame, the forces that left the window open so to speak—moved to their next planned phases of destroying the United States Constitution one emergency law after another and putting the United States into an economic tailspin.  (To understand the method behind overloading the mind of a victim with so much information that they won’t see the threats coming at them CLICK HERE.  There is actually a science to this stuff that our enemies exploit.  It’s important that you know this because it is used on you daily.)

Like Leland in the film Twin Peaks who is raping his daughter night after night and seeks to keep it a secret by torturing her mind with incredible abuse, the government has harassed 9/11 truthers for years, and it is in their action of harassment that the governments guilt is revealed. All one has to do to see it is to look at all the pieces and admit to themselves that a trusted loved one is in fact the villain of their lives. And many Americans can’t see who torments them because they can’t bring to their minds the crushing reality that their trusted officials aren’t so trustworthy, the experience is life shattering—just as it was for the fictional Laura Palmer. Laura couldn’t admit that her father was raping her, and most Americans can’t admit the same of their government. You cannot understand the nature of 9/11 if you just look at the facts that you are presented with in the fashion the aggressors present. You have to look at the entire picture and the symbols behind the symbols to understand the true meaning of things, because that is how our enemies operate.

But remember, they are still our employees and the reason they do this all in secret is because they don’t want their boss—the American people—to find out. All this secrecy means that they do recognize that if their boss finds out they’ll be in big trouble, so it is not they who hold the cards of power, all the government holds is the ability to invoke fear to keep their secret quiet. So as people say to me—you can’t say that about the government—I say, why not? They are not my rulers. I don’t owe them anything, and if they have made deals with Islamic radicals and attempted to destroy the American economy, it is they who are the bad guys, not me. I have no explanations to make to anybody. It is they who have the blood on their hands and who have committed extraordinary crimes and attempted to hide the murders with further harassment. That is why eventual confrontation is imminent, not because people like me asked for it. All I’ve done is work hard and pay my taxes to a government I expected to work on my behalf. But instead this government has used my labor, and my property to steal my value for aims I do not support and sought to undermine my country on my back. It is they who have the explaining to do, not me—and certainly not any “birthers,” “truthers,” or “latté sipping prostitute accusers.” People have a right to know the truth and if there are factions who expect evil to be paved on the backs of the good, those factions have a hard reality coming their way very soon. Harassment and fear are not acceptable methods for concealing the truth.  It is a wicked game that has been played on the American people, but the game is far from over, and we have not yet lost–only come to realize that we are playing against cheaters who will do anything to win. 

Oh–you want more proof? You think I’m kidding you? You think all this is a conspiracy, because the knowledge is not convenient? Then read what’s at the link below and you’ll see how it was all set up in 1958 to create the world we are finding ourselves dealing with today. I’ve made it easy for you. All you have to do is look for yourself.

Trayvon Martin: The grab for power on the back of tragedy

On purpose I have stayed away from commentary on the Trayvon Martin case where the young man was shot and killed in Sanford, Florida by George Zimmerman because I do not see the circumstances to be extraordinarily unusual from the dozens of other shootings that also occurred around that same time. The progressive knee-jerk of all shootings is to take away guns so the gangs, thugs and young people celebrating the “gangsta” mentality can kill each other with baseball bats and knives. The trouble with the progressive platform is that they helped created that “gang” culture with their policies of welfare and racial segregation for use in bloc voting. So they have helped create the environment that young Trayvon was just a participant. Young people mimic the culture that has been provided to them by pop culture, and these days pop culture heavily shaped by progressive politics says to wear your pants down around your knees, talk with heavy slang, and act like a “pimp daddy,” selling hoes on Washington D.C.’s K Street. I know hundreds of kids white and black that fit this description completely today. Its part of their culture and that culture is shaped by progressive politics.

(For a glance into this culture I’d invite you to check out the “Pimps and Hoes Society” and their United Kingdom party. http://www.pimpsandhoessociety.org.uk/ This is a direct result of progressive politics. And you wonder why kids are so confused.)

On the other hand I know the area of Sanford very well, and a gated community is that way for a reason. People value their properties, and they don’t want to walk outside and see kids cutting through their yards, or driving down the street playing loud music at crazy hours of the night. Property ownership is one of the cornerstones of our nation, and it should be respected. However, since progressive politics is just a thinly disguised attempt at socialism, private property is frowned upon. Private property is to be surrendered in a communist society, which is why progressive taxation on property is so aggressive. The progressive attempt is to encourage young people like Trayvon to not strive to have a house in a gated community, but to disrespect those who do, so all the gates of the world will come down, value for personal property will be eradicated, and everyone will look to government for their welfare checks. And this clash of cultures is fairly evident in Sanford that has a lot of retirees who want to live close to the Orlando area, but also has a lot of immigrant residences just looking for a foot into the American dream. And for those people, money is scarce and they envy those who have it. I was at a Piggly Wiggly in that area a few years ago when a group of 5 youths came into that grocery store while I was waiting for my wife to come out. All 5 boys looked like they were dressed for a Spike Lee movie and one boy had his pants pulled down so far that he had to hold them in place with his left hand. I watched him with great humor as he tried to open his car door while holding a bag of beverages in his right hand knowing his pants would fall down if he let go with his left. The gated communities are there to keep kids like that from vandalizing their homes and roaming across their back yards while they enjoy the fruits of their labor.

George Zimmerman was protecting that “gated” community concept by following around a suspicious character which turned out to be Trevon Martin. The two eventually had a scuffle and Zimmerman shot Trayvon probably because Zimmerman was losing the fight. I personally think Zimmerman should have used non-lethal weapons to incapacitate Trevon on his watch patrol. Resorting to a gun that only has a lethal option is very limiting in these kinds of conflicts, but listening to the circumstances around Zimmerman, he sounds like a typical mall cop, he was hungry to show his authority. I’ve also seen a lot of fights in parking lots and watched cops arrive on the scene ready to shoot everybody in an act of overreaction especially if one of the fighters had a gun. The panic is a cover for their real desire to fire their weapons and take the life of another human being. And I think deep down inside Zimmerman had a desire to prove to himself that he could make a decision like that—which is a common fantasy among young males. In fact, Mr. Progressive politics himself, Teddy Roosevelt signed up to charge San Jaun Hill in Cuba just so he could “kill a man” so this isn’t anything new. That may be a difficult reality for all the social engineers reading this and wondering how I could say such a thing to understand, but those types are simply out-of-touch as to what drives a young man.

Of course there are better ways to prove manhood, but in a culture of progressivism that is taking the human race backwards, toward a more tribe village mentality, they will discover that the need for violent conflicts will actually increase. This is the result of Hillary Clinton’s “it takes a village.” This is also why her husband Bill cheated on her insistently, because that is the village (communist) idea of no property values and shared sacrifice. It is progressive politics that makes these primitive desires worse, not better.

The proper thing for Zimmerman would have been to use a non-lethal martial art weapon or mace to incapacitate Trevon and if the young man attempted to use lethal force then to resort to the “Stand Your Ground Law” and use the firearm. There were so many options that weren’t used, and again, I blame progressive politics for preaching a message of peace, love, and charity—because these two young men did not know of any option besides fists and guns, and that is a breakdown in our culture. It is in the progressive desire to eradicate violence that they have not allowed young people to learn the art of conflict properly, because unfortunately, in any world at any time in history where some people function as a parasite on a human population, conflicts will occur.

The incident was sad, and a failure from all parties involved. But the situation become even sadder when the parasites discussed above saw that Trayvon was a black youth, and decided that they could capitalize on the situation and advance their own quests for power. That’s when they called for boycotts, and a national firestorm erupted over the last couple of weeks into what has become a joke—watching grown men and women who lack the fundamental principles of conduct in their own lives play into the parasitic apparatus of the Black Panthers, Jessie Jackson, Al Sharpton and many others who sought to use the death of a young man to get them leverage over the human race in the manner of their Civil Rights idol Martin Luther King. But unlike King who was genuinely pointing out a lack of equality that all men and women under the Constitution deserved, the radicals who came after him disguised their message of equality to hide their own desire for power and control. The parasites want to see their name in a history book, they want to force further legislation of a progressive nature and they sought to use Trayvon to their evil ends.

You don’t see these parasites come out over black on black violence in South Chicago and you don’t hear them berating modern slavery in Africa, but if it’s a gated community in Florida and a black youth is involved, then they will ignore all the other death and mayhem that is occurring daily and focus on this one child because it suits their political objectives—and that makes them the worst kind of looters.

The looters in this case are those who have sought to use emotion to defy logic and to pass new laws and social precedence that will advance a progressive agenda. We have watched this process for years undermine the American way of life and rather than looking at Zimmerman and Trayvon with sympathy the looters actually seek to change the direction of society with a group “collective” hug. The looters all want to be a village chief or the king of a land and wish themselves heroes to save the day on the backs of Treayon’s death. You can see them in the governing bodies, media, entertainment and in Civil Rights advocates whose goals are not equality, but progressive advancement.

The looter—the social parasites of emotion do not care for Trayvon Martin or his family. Their outward concern is purely cosmetic and designed to conceal their real intentions, which is more power and prestige. And sadly, as many of them deep down inside consider themselves to be good little socialists working on behalf of the progressive cause, their actions are strangely capitalist. Only they don’t seek to make a new product, or create a new technology with their capitalist tendency, but to steal power while a nation cries and cannot see through its tears at what they are really up to. They seek to “capitalize” on our misery.

Unlike Sanford, Florida we cannot put up gates around our homes high enough to hold back the kinds of looters that have shown themselves in the Trayvon Martin tragedy, because these parasites will attempt to feed off the very air we breathe if we let them. They do not value personal property, individual sovereignty, or rational values. They are progressive socialists who wish with every cell in their bodies to make the United States into a communist nation under the flag of tribal collectivism, and it is they who are the real menace to our way of life.

But The United States Constitution protects us from these parasites if we allow it to. We are only compelled to listen to them if we allow our emotions to rule above our logic, and their words only have power if we let them. Ultimately we have protections against their encroachment and if we could only avoid the guilt they attempt to use on our minds to sap our strength and resolve, we could vanquish them into the oblivion of irrelevancy forever and hold our ground by a firm reliance on the Second Amendment. And at that time the grief that Trayvon Martin deserved, and the ego building that George Zimmerman needed could be established so that young people might learn an important lesson from this tragedy and not be doomed to repeat it because the problem was misdiagnosed by the collective will of our society led by looters and grandstanders.
