The Looters of Monroe: Magic tricks in public education

Administrators aren’t in the OEA. Do your homework before making such claims. There’s absolutely no affiliation.

The above quote came to me over the last weekend July 2012 from a person who works in the education industry. I can tell because their email address came from a local education institution. With the Monroe School Levy one week out, an examination of that comment is deserved. Because if it wasn’t noticed by the general electorate, the whole reason a school attempts a summertime election for education tax increases is to catch people flat-footed and on vacation. The education employees who live in the district along with the radical parents who want free education on the backs of the entire community will show up for the vote, while most everyone else isn’t thinking about schools or politics as they vacation over the summer. The intention of an August election is not to seek the honest opinion of the community. It is to hope that only one side shows up for the vote. Do not allow yourself to become confused by the looters of your community.

Monroe as a school district needs money to pay for their high teacher salaries, just like every school district in Ohio. Those salaries are high because public education has no competition, so they don’t have to perform at a true efficiency in testing results or financial management because the entire system is built on government interference. Sure, politicians have set testing standards, but as Lockland Schools have shown, educators will simply fudge the numbers to get the testing results they need to get their state money. Public schools will lie, cheat and steal to preserve their tax scam against the public. Their intentions are evident for all to see. It’s difficult to admit that our trusted schools are that deceitful, but they are. That is why Monroe is placing a tax increase on the ballot in August. That is also why Lakota’s superintendent Mantia put a levy on the ballot in her previous district of Pickerington last August, which barely passed. And Lakota is not putting a levy on the ballot in 2012, because they are concerned that in Butler County, too many conservative voters will show up at the polls to vote Obama out of office, and that means they are also likely to vote down the fourth Lakota attempt to raise taxes on the community to pay for high employee salaries. It’s not because school administrators are kind, or have seen the light. It’s because they wish to attack the community again when the numbers are more favorable to levy passage. They are not interested in the real concerns of the community. That’s why the Lakota School Board is spending $40,000 dollars on “Community Conversations” to a progressive Cincinnati group to turn neutral voters into “Yes” votes so the district can legally steal money from the 18,000 who have voted “NO” in the previous elections. The intent of spending tax payer money on such a program is to manipulate the vote. Not to find the truth of how the community actually feels. It’s about manipulation, not truth.

The person who sent me that comment above is testing the water to see how much we know about their education scam. So I’ll explain here what I said to them. When it’s said that administrators are not a part of the teachers union, and that I should get my facts straight before speaking, they say it hoping that I don’t know how their trick works. But unfortunately for them, I do. Most administrators are hired from within the ranks of the teaching profession, meaning they were teachers at some point in their past. There may be a few exceptions but for the most part, all education administrators are inbred within the union structure. When they become administrators they do not have the stomach to manage their costs the way all other companies do, because they are broken horses that the union rides to easy contract victories over management. There is a reason that there are legal constraints on who can be a superintendent of a public school. For instance, if Lakota wanted to pay a person like me, or any member of No Lakota Levy to be superintendent of Lakota, it would be illegal, because there are rules on who can hold that position and those rules were created by the OEA lobby in Columbus to protect them from such radical changes. By law, Lakota must hire a broken ex-teacher like Superintendent Mantia who will deep down to her core be loyal to the teachers who work under her, instead of the community that pays the bills with their taxes.

The dirty little secret is that administrative management in public education wants the teachers to make $50,000 to $60,000 per year for a 7.5 work day 9 months out of the year because it’s assumed that administrators will make more money, otherwise teachers would never strive to become members of management. This inadvertently drives up the wage cost of administrators. Most administrators in public education are making between $75,000 per year to $100,000 so of course they support the high union contracts because it drives up their wages when they leave the union to join management.

Superintendents are even more notorious. Many of them make more money than the governors of entire states. They make more just to watch a handful of school buildings. In fact Superintendent Mantia did her doctorial thesis on the very subject of how the Superintendent pool was so bad in the country because the pay was not very good–that the gap between the teaching profession and the teachers were not wide enough. Her observation was that teachers were not showing a desire to move into management and ultimately into superintendent positions because there wasn’t enough money as an incentive to lure them into management. As a superintendent, she drives up her own costs by supporting teacher contracts that are high, because as a manager she is expected to make more money—a lot more money. Between Lakota’s superintendent and the amount of money the school board has spent just on public relations in a one year period, the cost to the community is a half million dollars.

The public education scam costs a lot of money and that is what Monroe is dealing with. They are in financial trouble because they did not manage their labor costs. The administrators had no desire to manage their labor costs because they were all bred into the system from within, they have no direct competition, they have political support who will create laws that support their unions, and everyone working in education is taking a lot of money out of the community pot, and when they run out, they demand more. Monroe as a school district has an empty pot and the school is demanding that it be filled. They hope that not enough people who watch the money are paying attention and the levy will pass without a complete vote from the community. That’s why the newspapers aren’t talking about the levy, because the only people who are intended to know about the tax attempt are the people the school wants to show up and cast a vote.

A lot of people who work in the education industry are appalled by my comments because they come from the “outside.” They try to belittle my opinion because according to them, I do bullwhip acts and wear a cowboy hat, so I’m not qualified to speak about these matters. In reality, my experience with that side of my life have put me in contact with many people who are magicians for a living, and over the years I’ve learned how a lot of magic tricks are performed. A magician is all about deception, and getting people to look in one direction as opposed to where the actual problem is. So it’s very easy for me to see that the person who sent me that note is attempting to deceive me with directional persuasion. The attempt is to convince me that administrators are not in the union, which is true, so there is no direct correlation between administrators and union partnership. Magic tricks work because people tend to look for direct relationship between the rabbit in the hat and its disappearance. It’s what they don’t see that makes the trick happen.

The levy in Monroe is about the lack of management of their labor costs. If voters don’t show up and vote the tax increase down, then no management of the community resources will occur. Like piranhas in an Amazonian river the education employees at Monroe will proceed to give themselves raises and dump money onto their lavish lifestyles in a magic trick performed against the community. And the magic trick begins in an August election when most everyone else is looking someplace else. A wave of the magic wand and—poof—more money will appear from the community for the looters of public education to plunder. Monroe will then wonder why the only business they have in their community is the Hustler store and Traders World as high taxes will push away current and future investment by those who pay the most taxes—the business owner—who is almost always the victim of the magic tricks and finds the rabbit in their laps hidden from the public who believe that the magicians of public education actually performed magic, when all it ever was—was a trick.

Bill O’Reilly Wants Gun Control?: The true ‘THIN BLUE LINE’

Bill O’Reilly is not alone in his confusion over the role that government plays in the gun debate. There has been a lot said about his heated debate with Rep Chaffetz over stricter gun laws. Bill O’Reilly the popular author and TV reporter on Fox News is typically a conservative leaning investigator, but due to his roots in working class Levittown, New York, he has a soft spot for labor unions, and due to the fact that he’s lived and worked around New York City for a good part of his life, where they have banned guns completely, his view of the outside world is somewhat tainted.

O’Reilly blew up recently on the air with Chaffetz stating that while he did support American ownership of firearms, O’Reilly thought that the FBI should be contacted when heavy weapons or ammo are purchased. On the surface, what O’Reilly says makes sense; law enforcement should know what’s going on and what they are getting involved with if they are required to apprehend a suspect like James Holmes who has been stockpiling assault rifles and ammunition ahead of an intended shooting spree. O’Reilly’s reasoning is that if the FBI had the ability to know that James Holmes was buying large amounts of ammunition that law enforcement might have been triggered to watch Holmes more closely and therefore might have stopped the Aurora, Colorado movie theater shooting before it happened.

People who live in gun banning cities like Chicago, Washington D.C. and New York share with people who live in gun banning countries such as Canada and England the naïve assumption that law enforcement is always on the side of the people they are sworn to protect. These people believe that law enforcement should have 100% of community cooperation yielding all freedoms to the scrutiny of those law enforcement officers. Typically the people who are worst in this complete yielding of their personal freedoms to government authority have lived in the coastal cities at some point in their life and already had to face the concessions of living in those gun banning zones, so the premise of their argument is corrupted by their experience.

In the fly over states, gun ownership is a fact of life. Virtually everyone I know who does not live in a metropolitan area treasures their guns. Many own 3 to 5 per household, and these are typically very intelligent people who have very good jobs, raise very good families, and are overall good citizens. There are probably as many guns within 10 miles of my home as there are on a small military base, and that’s good. That’s exactly how it should be. In my community there isn’t much for police to do except break up domestic violence situations and petty theft. People in my community do not shoot each other when someone cuts the grass over on the property of their neighbor. Generally, people get along nicely, even when some of those people support school levies and others do not. We take our differences out at the ballot box, but generally are kind to each other while in public. Part of the reason for the peace and prosperity in rural areas are because of the large amounts of guns.

Cops are not shot when they come to our doors in suburbia. They are respected even when all they really have to do is sit on the side of the road and give us traffic tickets. There is a respectful tension between the general public and law enforcement. But there is not fear, because we are armed, and so are they.

But law enforcement by its title takes their orders from the political system that is in place, and if the political system is corrupt, like we all know it is abuses are bound to occur. In areas where guns are confiscated, stories of police violence against citizens goes up dramatically. Now, in my family there are several members who are cops, and one of my nephews who I have always been close to wants to be a cop. So what I say is taken in context and from experience. I have personally employed cops, and have known some of them as good friends, and with all that said I would not surrender my life completely to them under any circumstance. I do not trust them to make decisions on my behalf that will dictate the direction of my life, the lives of my family, and my property. I respect them and the danger of their job, but that is also what they are being paid for. I don’t give them a right to my life and property in the name of safety, I don’t give them the right to molest my wife and daughters, and I certainly don’t give them the right to draw a gun on me because they have a tendency to overact with grand theatrics when danger is present. I’ve seen this kind of behavior in more than one fight outside of bars where they show up on the scene and see a person laying face down in a pool of blood and assume the guy still standing did something wrong. Cops just like most people panic at the site of blood and guns, and they let their fears get away from them often. Cops are dangerous under this condition. Many of the gun laws created have been created under the pretense of panic where law makers have pandered to police officer’s fears.

Before the baby shower that my wife and daughter where holding for my youngest daughter over the previous weekend they sent me up to the local convenient store to purchase ice for the multiple coolers that were to be filled with drinks. I found myself in line behind a derelict of a man who was buying lottery tickets. Once he had his tickets he left and I was able to pay for my ice and get the key from the attendant. I went outside to get my ice out of the freezer and found that the man with the lottery tickets was sitting in his car scratching off the numbers. As I pulled out my bags of ice, the man cried out in glee from his car. “I won—I won!”

He jumped out of his car as though he had just won a million dollars and held the tickets up for me to see. “It won me some big money today! I won twenty dollars! I was afraid I was going to have to borrow money from my brother-in-law for cigarettes, but now I don’t have to!” As I loaded up my ice I couldn’t help but smile at the man who wasn’t any older than I was. “Now, if that happened every day, you’d never have to work another day in your life,” I said. He looked at me with confused attempts to connect neurons in his brain and relate something in his life that would help him understand my context. But my comment was completely foreign to him. I might as well have spoken a foreign language to him, because his lifestyle and mine are so far apart they might as well be from different countries. As I watched him run in to cash out his lottery tickets and come back out with a box of cigarettes and a toothless smile from ear to ear I thought—that was a guy I don’t want to have a gun—because he’s not smart enough to carry one.

It is people like that guy who police worry about when they have to arrest them for domestic violence because they beat the hell out of their bother-in-law over cigarette money, or had sex with their wife’s sister because they were all drunk and passed out on the floor of their smoke infested trailer. The wife erupts into a violent range wanting to kill the man for his reckless sexual exploits. It is often the poor and destitute who have trouble with guns, just like they have trouble with money. I have tried to employee such people for years, and they often lose their jobs because of attendance—they just don’t have the ambition to get out of bed. Many of them would rather use government regulation and unemployment benefits to keep from having to show up for a job, and because they are essentially lazy, they have low quality people in their lives and a low quality life style, and it’s there choice.

I should not be restricted from owning military grade weapons because of people like that lottery ticket guy. I should be able to have the guns of my choice in case politics fail completely and I need an equalizer against tyranny. Hopefully, just by having the gun, it will mean I never have to use it. But in not having it, police abuse and political cover-ups will occur, because they do now—and always have. My life is more important than the collective sum of the lottery ticket guy, or the nature of a politician’s congressional district, or presidential reign. All those kinds of things are just blips on the radar screen and don’t mean much in the scheme of things.

The FBI, the CIA, the ATF, the Department of Homeland Security, the TSA and our local police officers cannot be trusted to do the right thing 100% of the time. The need for the gun is for the 1% of the time that humans fail their fellow-man with the knowledge that one group has power over another. When the officer cuffs a man for a traffic warrant late on a Saturday night and discover his wife is in a compromised position and is quite attractive and unprotected, they may offer to turn the man loose if the woman has sex with them. Yes it does happen. The wife may want not want her husband arrested, or maybe going to jail will bankrupt them so she might be inclined to do as the officers suggest. I know of cops who have sat in my backyard and bragged about this kind of stuff. The arrested man at that point should have the right to defend his wife, and is property from intruders. But because the man is handcuffed in the back of a patrol car and the law has taken possession of his home, the police are in complete command to dictate the terms of release or apprehension. If the police know that the man is not a registered gun owner who might seek revenge for the indiscretion, they are much more inclined to abuse their power and take advantage of the wife.

If the man is a gun owner, the police will treat the man with much more respect. They’ll be much more careful with any suggestions that man might interpret as threatening because after the court hearings are over, they don’t want that man to come after them for revenge. So they treat everyone with more respect. That respect comes because of the gun.

The bottom line is no government agency needs to know any more about our lives than they need for basic government operation. They do not need to have the ability to have complete control over the American population in times of martial law. The President of the United States does not have the right to impede our rights over some political panic. And the weakest links of our society cannot be allowed to create legislation to keep certain guns out of their hands which punishes all of society. If we allow the weak links of our culture to determine the levels of our freedoms then we might as well consider ourselves a conquered civilization.

People like Bill O’Reilly are well-intentioned, but they are corrupted with the gradual erosion of progressive politics that have made such slight indiscretions seem minor and reasonable. When gun grabbers suggest that the Constitution was written in a time when the only guns were balls of lead and single shot muskets they are missing the point. America is not a land of law run by lawyers, and the Constitution is not a legal document as typical lawyers might consider it. It’s a political philosophy that has law draped from it as decoration. The decorations can all be removed yet the structure is still intact. It does not matter if the gun is a single shot musket, or an automatic machine gun, the need for guns in society are to equalize all participants with the ability to wipe temptation from the minds of the would-be thief, the looting politicians, and the ruthless dictator.

The government does not need to know what, or when we buy something or what we intend to do with it. It’s none of their business. Having more law enforcement officers does not make me feel safe. Only a gun at my own hip, or the guns next to my bed, or in my garage make me feel safe, and the need for them is an acknowledgment of human philosophy that understands the true nature of people. Gun control is social engineering that assumes that the people who look over our records, and monitor our activities are superior in their decision-making skills to society in general, and that just isn’t the case. In fact, it couldn’t be further from the truth. For those who assume that dangerous weapons are OK to ban from the public the meaning of the weapons are lost in the discussion. No—we do not need an AK47 to shoot a deer. But we may need it if a major storm comes through and knocks out power for days on end and bands of looters roam from house to house to rape, pillage, and destroy the property and lives of the inhabitants while the police are overwhelmed with the emergency. That is the time when all you have is yourself, and your guns to keep tragedy from making another victim of a family that trusted the law completely even though all the rules of society changed the moment the power went out. In times like that, more than a .22 six shot rim fire will be needed. That’s when the big guns come out, and the threat of those guns becomes the true “Thin Blue Line,” that was always the reality but never acknowledged.

OBAMA WILL LOSE ELECTION OF 2012: Movie Review of ‘DARK KNIGHT RISES’

Glenn Beck said two things that I agree with 100%. First, he thinks the new Batman film Dark Knight Rises is a fantastic movie that should be seen. So if you haven’t seen it and want to see a good movie—GO SEE IT! The other thing he said is that he is calling the presidential election already—Barack Obama will lose. Beck warns that everyone still has to do the work, they still have to get out and vote, but as it stands, Barack Obama has spent himself into bankruptcy before the campaign has really even started, his economy is a disaster, his justice department is corrupt, his health care is reckless socialism, and the Obama White House is guilty of security leaks. Obama has been a disastrous president, and as things stand now, the election shouldn’t even be close.  Just keep the hammer down and hit hard, and we can get rid of the worst president in American history.

So keep your noses to the grind stone. Do the work, vote, vote and vote. Don’t stay home because all the derelicts looking for free Obama money will show up and vote. So don’t let them rob you by not showing up at the election. And in the mean time, go see Dark Knight Rises. Don’t let the actions of a loon keep a very good American made movie be tarnished by the actions of a Joker.

1-40 Tunnels: Explaining the next phase

I have to address a couple matters, one is fun, and the other is a clarification. First off, the picture shown here is the twin tunnels on I-40 in North Carolina just 4 miles south of the Tennessee border. For those in the media who are reading the advance copies of my new novel and have read the very exciting scene involving the roadblock at the twin tunnels, that scene takes place on the other side of that mountain at the mouth of those two tunnels. It is easy to see why the gunfire and explosions caused so much trouble when you observe how rugged the landscape is in that region.

I put that picture up because currently road crews are closing that tunnel at night diverting traffic through a service road so that the tunnel can undergo much-needed maintenance. For those who have read the novel, the kind of thing that happens in the story is a serious threat in that area, and requires constant maintenance. For those who have not read that scene, you will soon find out. Loud noises and violent behavior are not good for such areas. But it’s a fun fact of the novel to know that such an extreme occurrence is quite possible, and care must be constantly taken to avoid such catastrophes.

The other thing is attached to my new book as well. Some of my readers here–people I respect a great deal–are concerned that I may lose my credibility with the school levy issues by appearing self-serving because of all my promotional efforts over my new book. This deserves a bit of explanation that is needed at this point for my readers who visit Overmanwarrior’s Wisdom every day. To begin, a reminder of what my life was like before I got personally involved in the Lakota Levy in 2010 needs to be seen. The video below is a sample of the kind of life I lived before joining forces with the people who would eventually make up No Lakota Levy to defeat those tax increases. The efforts of my previous book, and several film festivals along with my other exertion in a professional sense had me constantly on the road, going to award shows, trade shows, and many other adventures that come as part of that life, which I put on hold to help solve community issues.

In 2010 I put aside some of these fun occupational endeavors and took a few years to contribute something to the battle that is raging in our nation. I started helping local liberty groups where I could, as I still do. I started this blog site as a way to offset the information that the newspapers wouldn’t cover, and I took on the Lakota School Levy because it was a lie being told on the backs of children, and looked to be devastating to a community I grew up in, and is currently in my hands to protect. I was between books anyway completing The Symposium of Justice in 2004, and was writing Tail of the Dragon and doing my research to make that manuscript into a saleable story that American Book Publishing would eventually pick up.

Working around progressive entertainment types I knew what kinds of things pro tax advocates would attack in my character, so when the Enquirer did the article about me featuring my whip work, I knew how the politics would play out. Believe me; it was very much by design. The pro tax people ridiculed my use of whips which helped me figure out who was who. I used that information to my advantage. I didn’t fight those levies to be mean, or destructive. I did it because it was the right thing to do. My ultimate message was the importance of traditional values versus progressive values being taught in school, and I didn’t then nor in the future wish to pay higher taxes for a “progressive” education. I could have went around the country doing dozens of whip shows trying to promote traditional values, or I could do the unthinkable and apply those skills to explaining Keynesian economics which is how public schools function much to their own detriment. Of course I chose the latter.

Before the start of the last levy campaign I told my friends in No Lakota Levy that I had a book coming out in 2012, and they needed to find another spokesman for the levy fighting effort. I told them I’d still fight the levy, but I didn’t think it would be right to do media stuff for my book, and do media stuff against the levy, because the mixture would appear self-serving. For that very reason I avoided any elected offices, even though many wanted me to volunteer, because when Tail of the Dragon was ready to come out, I would have to put my effort behind that promotional endeavor, and being formerly involved in Tea Parties and other official positions while promoting a book is tacky. I don’t like it when others do it, so I sure wasn’t about to do it myself. I hoped that after two solid years of fighting levies that other people had learned how to do it, and could become the face of those efforts in the future.

In February of 2012 it was time to make a change which had been talked about ahead of time, so I picked the fight that would bring all the rats to the surface so everyone could see who was hiding where. The pro tax supporters conducted a negative survey against me outside a local Kroger store, so the time to act was then. I let my anger go, because it was well justified and it created the opportunity I needed to take this next step. This allowed new people at No Lakota Levy to pick up the baton and carry on. I of course would continue to cover things as I had, but I needed the freedom to move on to book promotion mode.

I know people who successfully have their hands in everything, but I’m not like that. I enjoy my time to myself, so I don’t like being too busy. If I’m going to promote a book, I’ll put my effort into it, since it’s something I already believe in. When the time comes to fight for another community issue, I’ll be there. If the group we have in place is not ready, then I’ll assemble another one to meet the challenge. It’s that simple. But life is always in motion, and especially at my age, it is very busy.

A lot of people on the inside believe that Tail of the Dragon will do well. They believe it’s a very good book, and I am inclined to agree. But you just never know. The public may reject it, the timing may not be right, there could be problems. Any number of things can happen, and they often do. I hope the book does well, because if it does I will get the chance to write a book I’ve been thinking about for over ten years, called The Trial of Fletcher Finnegan. That book looks to be well over 1 million words. It will be considerably larger than Atlas Shrugged and will be quite an effort. I will need a good showing out of Tail of the Dragon to free my time up enough to be able to write the new book because it will be an exclusive task of mine for a number of years.

So I am putting out a lot of promotional material. These days, that’s how it’s done. For my daily readers, some of which have already read and loved the book, they are getting tired of seeing all my promotional stuff, because they’ve already been there and done it. It’s a good memory for them, but it isn’t new any longer. But for many people every day who come here for the first time, I put those ads up for them. Today alone I have multiple readers from 13 different countries ranging from Sweden, Romania, and Saudi Arabia to New Zealand and Australia. This is pretty normal, and as it would be thought that these readers are tuning in to see what happened in the Colorado shooting, ironically most of the views come from my articles about school levies. All those countries mentioned each had more than 10 hits each, so the Tail of the Dragon ads are important to gaining international exposure. Even though my daily readers are used to the Tail of the Dragon cover and blurbs, many of these international readers are just seeing them for the first time.

If I were in an elected office, or was an official spokesman paid by someone else to represent a product, I wouldn’t cross promote my personal projects with Lakota stories, or political material concerning the presidential election. But the fact of the matter is that I have deliberately made myself free of those obligations so I can do what I have been planning for quite some time. At this time there isn’t a levy at Lakota to fight, and there are plenty of ground troops in the liberty groups to handle the administrative stuff. I do my part in giving a local voice to many contemporary issues that get missed in the mainstream media outlets, stuff the liberty groups need to advance their positions, being someone who can untangle the complicated web of modern politics so it’s easy for others to see.

I offer the work at Overmanwarrior’s Wisdom for free, because there is a need for it. If I make money it is not from memberships, or any donation. It will be because someone bought a book of mine. I work through many of the problems that will be in future stories by putting my thoughts and notes up for all to see, so I can refine those thoughts into more articulate works in actual books in the future. A good portion of these articles are my personal notes that I share for the development of ideas. I figure that if I need to resolve my thoughts on a matter than others do as well, so by putting the articles on this forum, I hope they help others.

But I don’t formally belong to any groups so I can have the freedom to pursue my own path, so that I cannot be accused of indulging in self-serving messages. Once the novel comes out, I may change that, but for the time being, that’s the way it has to be due to the nature of public relations. I support many groups, and I may attend their meetings. However to avoid the accusations of being self-serving, I keep my involvement limited to a supportive role. For me the most supportive role I can think of is to help frame the argument so others can see it clearly, and act on it. I had an open window between projects to offer myself publicly to controversial subjects, and I will have an open window again. But as of now that window is closed. That does not mean I will not write and contribute articles for analysis as I have, but my official spokesman roles for those endeavors will have to be on hold till my window opens once again.

I hope that clears things up for those who were wondering. It is much easier to answer the question this way as opposed to separate emails. When it comes to these kinds of things, constant reinvention of roles is very important so that stagnation does not set in. When you get a chance to work on a project that has national exposure, you take it, because the results will be useful later.

20 Reasons Barack Obama is a Socialist: Welcome to Cincinnati the student of Frank Marshall Davis

Before we get into the 20 reasons Obama is a socialist, here is an early review from the new film “2016: Obama’s America as seen on Rotten Tomatoes.

Saw this last night and loved it. Very gripping. And very fair. The facts are laid out and you make your own conclusions. There is no Obama bashing. Much of the film is in Obama’s own words (from “Dreams From My Father”). See this movie.

As President Obama lands at CVG airport for his Cincinnati fundraiser bashing the rich and declaring to help the poor, it is important to know who he is. Obama’s use of Air Force 1 for a fundraising trip is a disgrace and I’d feel that way even if the president was a Republican. I don’t worry about it too much for the occasional feel good visit, but with Obama, he has consumed millions of dollars in tax money just in fuel to fly him around the country simply to raise money for his campaign which I do not support. So in an inadvertent way Obama through IRS enforcement is taking some of my tax contributions to fund his campaign which I’m against.

But as I think of Obama I am currently ecstatic over the upcoming release of Dinesh D’Souza’s new film “2016: Obama’s America.” The Hollywood Reporter and The Blaze featured clips of that upcoming film which delves into the past of Barack Obama and explores the relationship of Frank Marshall Davis in the life of the future tax abuser, Barack Obama. The Blaze specifically has a wonderful feature on the new Paul Krengor book, The Communist which goes into great detail about Davis. Read that article at the below link and buy that book on Tuesday, July 17th!

Dinesh’s new film is being produced by Gerald Molen who produced Schindler’s List, Jurassic Park, Minority Report, and Rain Man and is based on the book The Roots of Obama’s Rage written by D’Souza. If you have not read the book, you should. To get a sneak peek of what the book is about, and what this film will be about, check out this Forbes article.

http://www.forbes.com/forbes/2010/0927/politics-socialism-capitalism-private-enterprises-obama-business-problem.html

The movie will be a very hard hitter, and it will be fair—probably fairer than a person like Obama deserves. Based on D’Souza’s writing style and the very good producer credentials of Gerald Molen who has worked very closely with Steven Spielberg—an Obama supporter and someone I think a lot of in spite of his political beliefs, this film will be well done and balanced.

But that does not mean that it won’t reveal that President Obama is the first president in American history that is a representative of Communist Party USA, and he achieved penetration of the highest office in the world through subversive tactics taught to him by Frank Marshall Davis who was a card-carrying communist who set out in 1931 to spread communism all over the world. Davis using the disguise of civil rights activism set the stage for what many on the political left adhere to today particularly in many media outlets utilizing open endorsements of communism—which is the mortal enemy of the American way of life and capitalism in general which is the life blood of the American economy. Obama was introduced to Davis through his grandfather—the only stable male figure in his young life—Stanley Dunham with the intention of mentoring the young Barack Obama into a subversive communist that they could slide under the protective barriers of American society—which they hated—to undo it from within.

Stanley Dunham raised in Barack’s mother a radical leftist who would spend much of her life hopping from man to man on a quest for Marxist radicals, which Barack’s biological father certainly was. Barack’s mother got naked for Davis on several occasions in what has been documented as wild sexual exploits. It says a lot that the most stable figure in Obama’s youth was his grandfather who was drinking buddies with Frank Marshall Davis. It makes you wonder what kind of man Stanley was to let Davis drink with him then embark on wild sexual adventures with his daughter, Barack’s mother, who was old enough to be Davis’s daughter at the time. If a friend of mine came to my house and wanted to seduce my daughter, there would be big trouble for them. But apparently Stanley enjoyed the activity, enough to encourage his grandson Obama to learn all he could.

Davis had a FBI file 600 pages long due to his communist activity with the National Negro Congress—a communist front organization, and the Civil Rights Congress cited by President Harry Truman’s Attorney General as a communist subversive organization. In fact, in a 1950 FBI report states that members of a subversive element in Honolulu were “concentrating their efforts on infiltration of the Democratic Party through control of Precinct Clubs and organization.” Robert M. Kempa was a Communist Party informant who agreed to cooperate with government investigators back when the government itself was not yet infected with communism and stated, “Late in the fall of 1950 I started contacting Frank Marshall Davis in connection with Communist Party matters, and relaying to him information received from my superior contact in the Communist Party. During a portion of 1950, 1951, and part of 1952, I continued contacting Frank Marshall Davis and also transmitted dues from the Communist Party received from him to my contact above. During the period of my contacts with Frank Marshall Davis, he advised me that his wife, Helen was a member of Group #10.” Frank Marshall Davis was the primary contact in Hawaii for subversive communist activity and this is one of the primary influences in Barack Obama’s young life, so much so that Obama would trace the steps of Davis in South Chicago as a community activist many years after Davis had performed the same role in Chicago. It was Davis who started The Star in Chicago, a labor newspaper that was committed to subtle communist propaganda which was very prevalent in the labor unions.

Obama was surrounded by radicals his entire life, so he never had a chance. If he was not President of the United States, I might feel sorry for him and try to help him find his way, but in his role as president he is a subversive seeking to rob from me a way of life I cherish and I personally don’t take that lightly. One of the strategies that subversive communists used which was partially invented by people like Frank Marshall Davis through his newspaper work and literature was to attack anyone who questioned their activity. For the communist the best defense was an aggressive offense, so if anyone questioned their activity, they would publicly ridicule their attacker as a racist, a selfish mean person, a rich out-of-touch socialite, or a stiff. They of course used other words, but in short, nobody wanted to be called names, since it’s a primal desire that many have to receive some sort of social acceptance from their peers. Communist subterfuge experts exploited this tendency to silence America through their communist advancements out of fear from name calling.

Obama’s presidential ascension was designed by people like Davis, and Bill Ayers to penetrate the White House like a Trojan horse and destroy it from within. They avoided the communist designation by calling themselves progressives and hiding behind the Republican commitment to progressivism started by Teddy Roosevelt. People not privy to history do not understand how these games are played. Most people look for obvious signs they can measure actions to. The communist subversive has denied spectators of this evidence using means developed by the KGB to undermine American culture over a long period of time without obvious signs of antagonism. They literally kill you with kindness behind symbols of “peace.” The Soviet Union hoped that America would crumble from inside before they ran out of money in the late 1980’s. Lucky for America, we hired a radical right-winged president in Ronald Reagan to yank America back to its capitalist ways for a short period of time paving the way for one of the greatest growth spirts known in the world.

When I grew up in the 1980’s jobs were plentiful and economic growth was constant. It was the policies created by Reagan that allowed Clinton to balance the budget and bring down the deficit enjoying the economic relief created by Reagan and the destruction of the Communist Soviet Union. But Clinton after 8 years had brought progressive policies back to the national and international stage, and the progressive George Bush and now Barack Obama have restored the communist dreams started by radicals like Frank Marshall Davis back to America.

Most people do not know that they have accepted communism in their lives, which is by design. Communists like Obama have learned to use careful language to hide their true intentions even from themselves. As agents of communism they have had to teach themselves to believe everything they say. Obama’s grandfather and Davis clearly used the young Obama to carry out their dreams of communist radicalism by teaching the young future presidential plant to slowly seduce the masses into accepting anti-capitalist propaganda.

A communist is coming to Cincinnati to raise money for his intended destruction of American society. He comes with a message given to him from Frank Marshall Davis in a plan hatched in the mid 50’s ahead of the book release The Naked Communist. Davis and his FBI file which will be revealed in the movie 2016: Obama’s America will show to what extent communists worked to undo American society. In Hawaii, Davis successfully avoided arrest by the FBI and used a group called The Democratic Revolution to disrupt industry, organize large strikes and oust “white rule” among the plantations and businesses and was successful. His mentorship of the young Barack Obama would take the same attack mode used in The Hawaiian Dock Strike of 1949 to put a communist radical in The White House and bring the imperial nation of America to its knees forever.

These facts cannot be disputed, and the evidence is overwhelming. This is the person who has been president for 4 years and is looking for 4 more—which the nation we all know and love will not survive. Obama in spite of his carefully crafted charm and pleasant demeanor is a created man by radical communists intent on fulfilling the dreams that climaxed in the 1960’s but fizzled short because of the Reagan Presidency. Communists infected the media; they infected movies and television, book publishing, government and to a large extent—public education. Because of those infestations, communism is a big part of the life of most people reading this whether they know it or not. They cannot see it in their day-to-day lives unless they compare their world view of today with those of their own grandparents. It is only then that they can see how far they have fallen, and how effective Davis and his insurgents were in undermining American society. It is to that ignorance that Obama speaks. It is the message of subtle communism hidden within the Democratic Party under the banner of progressive politics that he advocates unconsciously, because he knows of nothing else. It is because of him that today’s America is facing a financial collapse similar to the collapse of the Soviet Union in the late 1980’s, because like those Russians, America is being led by a devout communist personally mentored by Frank Marshall Davis. Because of his actions, Obama is being more and more referred to as a socialist, which is really just Communism Light. But under the tutelage of Davis, it would appear that Obama and his staff is even further to the political left than avid socialists which the video at the start of this article indicates with 20 points. The undercurrent of his political belief is communism as it was advocated by Davis and the radical insurgents of the Soviet Union to end America and its powerful economy being driven by capitalism. The communist goal was to stop the blood from flowing in that economy, killing the nation. By examining the economic conditions of today, the results are obvious as our nation is near death. Obama’s visit to Cincinnati should be viewed as a dysfunctional family member coming to the nation’s death-bed to visit a loved one that is on life support. But Obama doesn’t come with flowers begging for forgiveness for what he has done to put the nation on that death bed. He’s coming to pull the plug.

What is a “Fair Share”: Being run ragged by goofy politicians

Do you ever wonder why at the end of a week all your time seems consumed? After all you work all week at your job, and when you come home you find out you have obligations to drive your kids to soccer practice to meet the schedule of their coaches. You have dinner obligations that your spouse arranged. You have community meetings that politicians arranged. And on the weekend you have family obligations that your elderly parents arranged along with your siblings on one side of the family on one day, and because your spouse’s family and your biological family do not get along, you have obligations with them on the next day. At the end of the week you discover that all your time has been consumed by other people’s decisions which have directly affected you. They made decisions that cost you time and money in order to meet your relationship parameters with those people.

When looting politicians like Barack Obama declares that you owe your “fair share” of a tax burden, they are essentially signing you up for obligations that you had very little input in, and when you get your pay check, you realize how little money you have left after all the looters have taken portions of your money. Taxes rarely go to programs that you personally use, most often they go to demographic groups that suit the looting politicians. Politicians have gotten used to giving out tax money as gifts to people who vote them into office. They make financial commitments on behalf of the rest of us and traditionally we voted in favor of those financial commitments by not voting out those looting politicians.

For all the reasons you typically say “yes” to every social obligation that comes your way during a week, you say yes to every tax increase the politicians commit on your behalf because you don’t want to appear to be “anti-social” by not participating. So you run yourself ragged to fulfill all your obligations and when you get to be old and near death you find yourself resentful that you never had the courage to tell some of those people no. Often you discover too late that time is precious, and you ran yourself ragged for decades only to find out you could never make everyone completely happy anyway. They used up your personal time, and now you’re at the end of your life and you can’t get that time back—and nobody cares. They may cry a bit at your funeral, but even that goes away in a day or two.

This is what politicians are doing with our tax money and when they declare that we should pay our “fair share” they are stating that they assume we endorse all their goofy programs because we continue to pay for them without question. When Obama says that we must raise taxes on the “rich” he is already attacking the demographic group that pays the most taxes, and is pushing for increased theft of their money, which is appealing to the majority of Americans that pay little or no tax on their incomes. What Obama is doing is taking from the rich and giving to the poor in those types of statements.

When Obama states the necessity of those taxes he is assuming that voters support all the pension deals that politicians have cut in bedroom brokerages with organized labor. Obama assumes that all Americans are content with Medicare, and Social Security stability. Obama assumes that Americans are alright with education services, defense spending, space development, welfare reform, a criminal Department of Justice, a bunch of thieving lunatics in the Senate, corrupt lobby affairs in the House of Representatives, a president who uses Air Force One as his personal taxi service to raise money for another term, which 50% of America are against—yet they are forced to pay their taxes to a president they don’t want.

By declaring that Americans—especially the wealthy—should pay their fair share, Obama and his minions of looters assume that the decisions they have made mandate automatic support from all American people without question. It is assumed that all Americans will pay their taxes for programs they don’t want—to feed people we see as parasites to society—and we are required by social contract to give away every last dime of our hard earned money to the obligations these idiots have created for us.

Many of you reading this look for coupons to save money at the grocery, you eat out when you see there’s a two for one special, and you wait in line on Black Friday to get special deals on expensive electronics to save money. But you also pay your taxes without question when looting politicians continue to ask for more, and more, and more. It never ends, yet you don’t question it. You treat them the way you do family and friends who demand all of your time that they can get access to—running you ragged to no end. And you let them do it, for the same reasons that you let politicians take your money and spend it on programs you don’t support.

Does any of this make sense? I don’t know about you, but I don’t spend my money on services that I don’t like. I don’t see movies that I think are too expensive for the quality of what’s on the screen, I don’t eat at a restaurant if I suspect I’ll get bad service, and I don’t take long trips if gas prices are too high. If charges on my cell phone creep up too much, I cancel the service. If my cable company does not give me the channels I want I drop it in favor of a satellite service. I exercise my options to find the cheapest service at the best price. With Obama and his gang, I do not get a good service for the money I spend and I do not want to give them more money. I do not feel obligated to meet the goals they set for me, because they are idiots and I have no value for them. I do not approve of their Social Security program, their Medicare program, and their decision to cut space exploration in favor of giving more money to the United Nations. I do not support participation in the United Nations with tax payer money. I do not support the criminal behavior of many government branches, particularly the DOJ under Eric Holder. I do not support the current border policy; I do not support the work of our EPA since it is infected with environmental radicals without any sense in their heads. I could go on and on, but in short, why should I support something with higher taxes that I think is a bad product? I shouldn’t. And I say no—often.

In my personal life, I say NO to 80% of all the attempts of family members and friends to get me to show up someplace to do things I do not want to do. I do not let people run me ragged with obligations they’ve committed me to. It’s no offense to them, but I come first, and if I feel stretched too thin, I give myself some time. So it is easy for me to say no to Obama and his thugs. The statement that tax obligations created by politicians somehow mandate my participation is laughable. If more people learned to say no to all the time and money eating activities that the looters of government throw our way, people would discover they had much better lives. They’d have more time to do the things they want to do, and they’d have more money to do them. Government is responsible for much of the misery our society is suffering from. For many who have not learned to say no, they run themselves ragged trying to meet all the social obligations fools like Obama create for them, and they spend their lives slaves to the ignorance of others. That is what Obama means when he says people need to pay their “fair share.” He is stating that tax payers are required to blindly pay money to the programs that looters like him created for their own behalf, to buy votes and pad their own pockets with lavish lifestyles. They are of course totally out-of-line. The lives of many people would be dramatically improved if they’d just learn to say no to looters like Obama and his clan of money grabbing, chaos driven malcontents whose time isn’t worth the money they are demanding.

The problems are the same, the inability to manage our personal times week by week, and the bottomless pit of tax requests by politicians who are never happy and will forever take more than they are given. The more they are given, the more they give away to buy votes so they can stay in power. The heart of the problem is in most of us who want to be polite and make everyone but ourselves happy. It is that nature in ourselves that Obama speaks to when he creates demands of our time and money to service his imperial interests. And he’s wrong—completely wrong.

For confirmation on Obama and those like him as outlined in this article, make plans to see the movie 2016, coming to a theater near you. At that film you will discover just how serious the situation involving politicians like Obama truly are.

Happy “Dependence Day”: The social parasites who play the slot machine of government

It was refreshing to hear deep into the night on July 4th 2012 fireworks sounding off from thousands of potential American rebels. Ohio had a ban on firing off “illegal” fireworks due to the very dry conditions and there were threats of enforcement by police and fire marshals “concerned” about the public safety. By the level of hoopla made about how dry things have been by those public employees I was actually surprised to wake up on July 5, 2012 to find that the state had not burned to the ground. According to the safety addicts, one smoldering ember would have set homes and properties ablaze requiring the police and fire departments to swoop in for the rescue. Of course their warnings were subtle reminders to the taxpaying public how “needed” they were which was just self promotion the local media was happy to broadcast with urgency hoping to incite panic among the veal raising parents who happily pass school levies so their children can become the next Einstein. For the most part, those warnings on July 4th were ignored, people fired off their fireworks, and the state did not burn into smoldering dust.

This left me to wonder why those same people did not behave with the same tenacity every other day of the year, which was the topic of Darryl Parks at 700 WLW during his July 4th broadcast. He brought to question the same issue I have been pondering—especially in the wake of the Supreme Court ruling over healthcare—many of the same people who have professed they want American Independence with a lot less socialism are at the same time asking the government to provide Social Security, Medicare, healthcare, food stamps, Pell Grants, government backed workman’s compensation, extended unemployment benefits, the list goes on and on and on. Darryl does a great job in the broadcast below in putting some numbers out about just how serious the situation is regarding the average American desiring to take money from the government to alleviate their personal ailments.

When viewed with reality, Americans are far away from truly being free, and they have no real desire to become free. They line up with their hand out looking for the government to give them something, and that something comes from the tax money we all throw into the pot.

I was invited to be in several parades on July 4th, which I thought was nice for the organizers to ask. But my personal decision on July 4th was to celebrate independence and I didn’t want to meet with any politicians on a much deserved day off. I want to be “independent” of them and did not feel like being nice to anybody just out of the act of being polite. Politicians at every single level have made their livings from the beginning of America to the present by giving away things that are not theirs to people who elect them into power.

If you take the time to consider the weight of that statement, it points directly to the heart of every major problem being dealt with in America right now. Politicians gaining the power of office give away things to the people who keep them in those positions. It could be a current president who wishes to loosen up illegal immigration policies pandering to the Latino vote, the congressman who embeds an earmark deep into a bill to make a lobbyist happy, or a local trustee who pushed for a zoning restriction to pander to their election campaigns. Our political system is corrupt to its very core with this notion of giving away things to people in order to buy votes, even if its just a $5,000 sidewalk in Beckett Ridge. 

If you listen carefully to all politicians, particularly in presidential politics, virtually everything they say they are going to do in office is to give away things to the people who elect them. But what people often don’t take the time to consider is that the things the politicians are giving away are the things that the voting population has given the politician to begin with. The politician didn’t make or create anything. All they can do is manage the resources provided to them. This is the danger of a democracy composed by a society of weak veal. The thing the politician should say in America is “elect me so that I can get government out of your life.” But Americans have become used to getting more than they put into the tax pot as if they were at a casino and playing the slots, where they put in their dollar and pull the lever through politicians at the voting booth, and suddenly out comes a jackpot collected there from other such players. The person receiving the jackpot thinks they have struck it rich, while the previous players scorn the system for not providing them with the jackpot—because they put their money in too.

Well, I don’t gamble. I never put my money in a slot machine, or on a black jack table—never. I work too hard for my money to throw it away on chance. And in politics I feel the same way. I see paying my taxes as a kind of casino game and I don’t wish to play. In my entire life I have never collected a workman’s comp claim and I have had injuries on the job that pierced skin through one side of my body and came out the other. I have worked through broken bones. I have worked through major back pain. I have worked through torn ligaments. I have been so financially strapped at times in the past that I could only afford one car that I gave to my wife so she could drive our children to school—to keep them from having to ride a school bus. I rode a bicycle instead 12 miles each way to one of my two jobs at the time as my only mode of transportation. After working 10 hours at my main job, I rode to my second job working another 8. So I have no sympathy for weaklings who take government money, or force their employers to compensate them for time off. I have no sympathy for the person who says they can’t get to work because they don’t have a car. I have no sympathy to the person who says they can’t afford to pay their cable bill (which is a luxury), their cell phone bill (which is a luxury), or pay for their internet. My first question to them is, “how many hours do you work a day?” Usually the answer is eight. I often respond that I’ve worked up to 18 hours per day, sometimes 7 days per week to give my family, and myself what I needed. Why can’t you do the same?

Politicians have created a handout culture where they take from people like me and give it to people I consider parasites, because they are too lazy, too weak minded, and physically weak to do for themselves. I am told that I should be compassionate. I am also told that I didn’t need to work through all my injuries, that I could have taken time off work, I could have insisted on government transportation, government food, government medicine, government housing, government education, government—government—government everything! I am told I could have used those services just like everyone else—but it was my freedom to choose not to.

Well, my answer is that I expect people to do as I do, but there is no incentive because government makes it so that the majority of Americans can take the easy way out, by taking advantage of government programs created by pandering politicians for the sake of getting elected, and they did it with my money that they forced from me through increased taxation—legalized theft. And to a person like me, it is stolen money because I do not participate in the slot machine of government. I do not pull the lever in hopes of getting back more than I put in like most other people do.

This is why I think it is appropriate the day after July 4th to celebrate that day as “Dependence Day” because it is for all those people who have corrupted our nation with a political system focused on pandering instead of managing. Because of the collectivism that has contaminated the American Dream, those who have their hands out—which is virtually everyone–has made slaves out of every other person who puts their money into the government machine hoping to get back more than they put in. Those are the kind of people who have made a scam of our government and of our nation, and they should be ashamed of themselves. It was nice on July 4th to hear that many of them fired off their fireworks defying the law. That tells me there is still something of America still in them. But on July 5th, “DEPENDENCE DAY” they were back to the grindstone with their hand out looking for an easy break from a politician who has no right to give it to them. It is because of each and every one of those veal producing parasites that America is a declining nation like the fireworks blown up on the Fourth of July to only become a distant memory the day after.

Celebrate the Fourth of July: Tell the pot bellied pigs in the United Nations to dig!

Prints of the photos on this site can be found here:  http://sharpwriter.deviantart.com/#

 

 

There is a lot of stress over the treaty shown below that the Obama administration through his progressive Secretary of State Hillary Clinton—the old bra burning hippie from the sixties—is making in a deal with the United Nations to ban firearms the world over, particularly in the United States.

http://www.reuters.com/article/2009/10/15/us-arms-usa-treaty-idUSTRE59E0Q920091015

If one looks at a political map, the red states and blue states, it will become readily apparent that the progressive radicals like Obama and Hillary reside in the high urban areas and coastal cities. But in the heart of the county, they are not liked and there is a lot of red in America. If Hillary attempted to give a speech at the Annie Oakley Festival in Darke County, Ohio at the end of July, she would be booed to no end. If Obama attempted to give one of his communist speeches at a NASCAR event he would be embarrassingly scorned, and he knows it. The heart of the country does not like these people and their imposing regulations and theories of collectivity. That’s why Obama tends to speak at public schools when he comes to Ohio, because public schools are institutions of progressive philosophy openly advocating socialism, and he is on safe ground. But people in general do not like progressive politicians.

Obama and Hillary along with the rest of their progressive utopians live in liberal hotbeds of the country that are densely populated with illegal immigrants, welfare recipients, the mentally challenged, and the down and out who do not have the fight in them to get up and try again. Social losers tend to vote the progressive way because they have given up at trying to make a life for themselves under capitalism, so they embrace socialism because they are a lazy and defeated people. Obama and his minion Hillary maintain the illusion of their popularity by only speaking to these types of people. Even when Obama came to Cincinnati to speak about the Brent Spence Bridge reconstruction project he picked a concrete factory that is built right next to one of the largest homosexual nightclubs in the whole Midwest, so that he would have a friendly audience to clap at his avocation of socialism. Obama knows who his supporters are, and the strong backbone of America is not it. Obama to maintain power must pander to gays, abortionists, illegal immigrants, Marxist radicals, school teachers, drug addicts, racists, feminists, revolutionaries, globalists, and the dirt poor who are too lazy to get off their couch to get a can of beer from their refrigerators.

It was not an accident that Joe Biden cancelled his trip to Hamilton a few weeks ago to speak from a government controlled, public union infested firehouse to beat on his chest about the defeat of Issue 2. Even as organizers tried to drum up enough people to generate a crowd among the public employees, there wasn’t enough to fill the screen for the cameras. So they called it off to save the embarrassment. People like Joe Biden or Barack Obama could not stop by the Grand Ol’ Pub in West Chester and expect crowds of general citizens to show up and cheer them to victory, because those people don’t exist in the heart of America. Instead they would encounter anger, and open hostility. The secret service personal has given Obama and his team the risk assessments and they aren’t good. So they stick close to government buildings where they control the crowd with government employees.

So trust me dear reader when I say this—there will not be any treaty that will take away our guns. The old hippie Hillary does not have a right to negotiate a treaty that takes away American guns with the United Nations because the guns protect us from power-hungry politicians like Hillary and Obama, and they will not be given up. It’s not going to happen. They can make the deal, but it won’t be worth the paper it’s printed on. They do not have the power to send the military into the heart of the country and take away guns. They might want to, but they can’t because it would be a slaughter.

They won’t because they can’t even speak at a NASCAR event due to the embarrassment they would be exposed to, and there are a lot more conservatives in the country than these hippie progressives, and once it is realized that Hillary has sold America up the river, and Obama pocketed the profit, there will be open hostility.

On the Fourth of July it is refreshing to sit on my front porch and listen to the hundreds of thousands of people all over the countryside breaking the law by illegally firing off fireworks. The Fourth of July is not about parades and politicians kissing babies, but it’s about rebellion. It’s about defiance. It’s about thumbing noses at authority. The police are helpless to arrest everyone, so they stand down. When the police have attempted to come down my street and enforce firework laws in years past they have encountered intense hostility and it simply isn’t worth the trouble—so they don’t do it any more.

The same thing will happen with 100 times the magnitude if Hillary and Obama make a deal with the United Nations to grab all of Americas guns. The hostility will be tremendous and finally the sleeping sheep of America will realize that they have all along been wolves, and there will be a lot of hunting going on.

The gun laws work in New York because the people who move there want what New York has. They tend to sacrifice many of their values to see if they can make it in the Big Apple, so giving up their guns are not a big deal—because they lack values to begin with. But if those same gun laws were brought to Kentucky—LOL, forget about it. I would love to see the entire military and National Guard attempt to go door to door in Slade, Kentucky and collect their guns. That won’t happen in 1000 years. If the federal government thought it was hard to find Bin Laden in Pakistan when we always knew he was there, wait till they try to enforce gun laws in the rugged parts of the United States.

Yes, the military might try to carpet bomb targets they suspect are the most hostile resistance, but they can’t bomb everyone, and everyone will be against them. And for the military to operate it requires recruits from the core of the country, and tax dollars to fund it, and if that gets cut off, there will be no planes to fly. There will be no military without tax dollars to keep it going, because the inner cities who support Obama and the gang don’t make anything. Most of Obama’s supporters are leeches on society and cannot come to his aid to enforce gun laws, because they are too lazy and economically useless. It is the gun owner who pays the most taxes in America. It is the gun owner who makes the government possible, and it is the gun owner who can take it away.

That is why anything Hillary does with the United Nations is useless. I personally do not recognize the United Nations as a viable government entity. It means nothing to me, and I believe America should cut all funding to it. It allows all the member nations to believe they are equal to America even when they have governments that embrace socialism. It gives those governments the illusion of being equal to the United States and they are not, and should not be allowed to believe such things. By cutting them off American tax dollars through UN support it would force those countries to realize they are functioning from a failed political philosophy. I can say that no member of the United Nations has any control or command of my life, and they never will. I don’t even listen to the politicians in my own community let alone some pot-bellied pig in Geneva.

So worry not dear readers. Hillary is as toothless in her ability to make gun grabbing deals with the United Nations as Obama is in forcing Americans to buy healthcare. We are getting ready to remove our government in America with one that more reflects traditional values. We will attempt to do it peacefully through elections, or we will do it with force, but progressives are about to lose their power.

For the progressive to have power they must take away the greatest weapon that can slaughter them forever—and that is the truth. They have managed to make the “truth” unfashionable. They have made it so we cannot speak the truth without hurting someone’s feelings or committing acts of racism. Whenever we deal with government this seems to be the tactic, even at the local level of the government school. When a school says they need tax increases for the children, while at the time employees give themselves massive raises and extravagant vacations, they are lying and using the removal of the truth as their means of executing their crime of theft. I declared my independence from these idiots by calling them Latté Sipping Prostitutes with asses the size of car tires and everyone who reads here knows what a fall out there was because of it. But I had more people who thanked me for saying it than the 70 people who hated me, and that scared the shit out of the progressives who attempt to run my community with manipulative influence. Rush Limbaugh the same week I had my ordeal with the local progressives called a progressive spokeswoman for the Obama clan a prostitute and boycotts were threatened against his advertisers. Progressives screamed victory. But the economic reality is that advertisers aren’t stupid. They made a public stand against Rush, just like the newspapers and media outlets around Cincinnati did toward me—to pander like slaves to the progressive fools—but then it was realized that Rush Limbaugh has 15 million listeners and no advertiser in their right mind would turn away the revenue they can make off that audience to appease some progressive ex-hippies. The boycott faded away and Rush is still on the air with no shortage of advertisers wanting to direct their products to his audience.

You see, there is a reason people like Rush, people like Glenn Beck, and more than 100 people stopped me within one month of my standoff and thanked me for saying what they always thought—because the core of the country knows they are being screwed over by Obama and the gang, and they don’t like it. And they are close to fighting back right now, and Obama’s team knows it.

So on the Fourth of July, relish the sound of the thousands of fireworks that fill the countryside deep into the night—each of them breaking the law.  Watch the videos on this article, clean your guns and kiss the barrel like it’s your first-born son or a treasured daughter, because it is there to preserve your freedom from the tyranny of an encroaching government. But the best thing you can do for yourself is to declare your independence from the control of the progressive. Feel free to speak the truth, it feels good, because as long as a majority of America politely holds their tongue so to avoid being called names by the progressive types, you give them power over you. It allows looting politicians like Obama and the bra burning hippie Hillary to believe they have a right to give America away to the United Nations. While they campaign in safe zones like homosexual nightclubs, public schools, and firehouses, they pretend that all of America endorses them, and they don’t. Progressives believe they are good, intelligent, and special because they do not hear what people really think about them, because conservatives hold their tongues and their manners. This allows the progressive to believe that they have support they do not have.

So free yourself from that burden and speak the truth. Declare your independence from the tyranny of having the strongest weapon in your arsenal removed from the battlefield of ideas—the weapon of truth. Speak it openly, and set yourself free, and let the punks, the losers, and the progressive politicians know what you really think of them. Because now is not the time for violence, because the weapon of the truth has not yet been employed, and once it is, progressives have nothing to stand on and no money to use to attempt to get it. It is the gun owner who holds all the cards, and the best card in the deck is the truth. Use it and you will find your progressive foes are toothless bureaucrats that can do nothing but call people names and spend money that is not their own. Take those things away from them and they have nothing to use against you.

Take away the money progressives use, fail their school levies, fail their police levies, and cut all government employees so there aren’t enough of them to even think about going door to door to take away our guns and force Americans to comply with foolish United Nations mandates. Vote out every politician who supports anything but tax decreases, and don’t let them think they are important members of some invisible European political class. In America a politician is just one step above scum, and fancy talk can’t mask the fact. Make sure to remind them of that from time to time, instead of letting progressives believe they are gods on earth with your silence. Because you see dear reader, as the video below will remind you, there are two kinds of people in this world–people with loaded guns, and those who dig.  It’s time we hand the progressives a shovel.

The Evil of Obamacare: Insurance actuaries conduct a parasitic symphony

The reality of Obamacare is not that it will help poor people have health insurance even though that’s the way it was sold. It’s about creating more government jobs at the IRS. It’s about creating more college degree positions as insurance actuaries. And it’s about giving near monopoly power to insurance companies. To hear the numbers for yourself listen to Nathan Bachrach from the show Simply Money on 55 KRC speaking with Darryl Parks on 700 WLW.

Government healthcare is about job creation and using tax money to create those jobs. It has nothing to do with healing the sick, but in keeping more people sick longer so that the medical profession can profit off that sickness. Insurance actuaries are one of the fastest growing professions in the United States right now. By looking at the link below it can be seen what they are projected to make each year, and the year to year growth of that industry. The reason for the growth is the government takeover of healthcare or rather the threat of it over the last 20 years.

http://www.bls.gov/ooh/Math/Actuaries.htm

I personally seldom claim against my insurance. When I get a cut on my skin, I fix it myself. When a tree falls on my house, I take care of it. When my cars are in accidents, I most of the time handle it myself. I do not go to the doctor unless something is really wrong, and I seldom ever get sick. To an insurance actuary I am a gift to the insurance company because I never use it, yet I pay for the service. Insurance companies make most of their money off people like me. Insurance works by having more people pay into a service than they actually use. If more than 25% of the contributors file claims, the insurance company has some serious problems since the payout often well exceeds what individuals have contributed unless they’ve participated in the insurance for a decade or more.

Insurance actuaries help the insurance companies assess these risks so that they can hedge their finances and make a profit. If the insurance provider has too many customers who are high risk, the insurance company will go out of business. When government gets involved such as they did in the 80’s when they mandated car insurance for all drivers, they did not do it for the good of the people, but for the job security of the insurance actuaries who were concerned that the risk of driving a car placed numerous unforeseen statistics into their equations and made profit nearly impossible for the insurance companies who had to compete with other companies in the free market for business. To compete insurance companies had to lower their rates to dangerous levels that did not give the insurance actuaries much to work with on profit forecasts. A good driver could randomly be hit by a bad driver, which completely wrecks the work of the insurance actuary with unpredictability.

Government mandated that all drivers who wished to have the “privilege” of driving in their state purchase insurance so that insurance companies would no longer have to drive down their prices to compete with each other to lure customers. Insurance companies were given an oligopoly of power by state and federal government to guarantee insurance companies a share of all drivers on the roadways so insurance actuaries would have stable numbers to work with in their statistics analysts.

Because the insurance was mandated by the state, insurance companies were able to charge whatever they needed through their oligopoly power. If a high portion of the drivers on the roadways had too many accidents then insurance rates could increase collectively upon the advice of their insurance actuaries to maintain their profits. One insurance company did not have an advantage over another because they were all guaranteed a portion of a state’s driving population. This made life predictable and profitable for insurance companies, and the state governments were also able to make money through their court system by imposing fines (taxes) they otherwise wouldn’t have had—such as the DUI laws designed to generate so much revenue from the courts. All this was the result of extensive lobby power in the late 1980’s and early 1990’s. The original villain was insurance actuaries attempting to get stable statistics for the companies they worked for.

Now, as to healthcare, government through public sector unions already has their hands in the nursing profession. They already use Medicaid and Medicare to inject money into the system that it might not have through natural competition which has artificially propped up the level of medical activity. Because of Medicaid and Medicare people use medical services because they can, which really screws up the life of the insurance actuary by wrecking statistic models. On top of that, doctors have been involved with false billing that has really put stress on Medicaid and Medicare since the money is easy to get through the government bureaucracy.

Government has went to a lot of trouble to encourage citizens to take up occupations in the medical industry such as nurses, doctors and everything in between through the university system set up by the Department of Education, and government now has to guarantee that there are jobs for all those people even though it would appear that medicine is moving away from the traditional pharmaceutical treatments and more to regenerative health. Insurance actuators do not like that prospect. They need people to use their service and regenerative health would mean that high cost medical treatments might be a thing of the past. After all, doctors need to have patients, and nurses must care for the sick, otherwise there isn’t any job for those people to do. So insurance actuators aware of this situation have informed their company CEO’s of the danger, and those CEO’s have lobbied congress on K-Street to help bring stability to their industry in these changing times. After all, with the avalanche of an aging United States population coming, they want to keep traditional medicine rolling along to support the financial empires they’ve built the industry into. So they want government to do what they did for auto insurance—they want the government to bring stability to the market for their benefit—so their actuaries will have stable numbers. Once the entire population is mandated to have health insurance, the actuaries will have real numbers to access risk and will be able to adjust their rates according to the demand.

Obamacare is essentially about manipulating the market with “crony” capitalism which is a long way off from the pure capitalism that I talk about all the time. It’s about creating more government jobs that are propped up with tax dollars those jobs would not have access to any other way. And it destroys competition by creating powerful oligopolies in the insurance industry. Insurance companies have traded their independence from government for financial stability and a guaranteed portion of the future business of the aging nation in America. And it all started with insurance actuaries, then lobby power in Washington to manipulate the situation to their advantage using government to do it.

Progressives like Obama have a goal of global government control so the deal works out well for them. By the time the government power is out-of-control within the decade; the people who operate these insurance companies will have taken their money and ran, leaving the mess to the next generation. And it will be done on the backs of people like me who despise insurance, never use insurance, and act out of self-reliance by using preventative medicine that does not require the current medical system who will pay the most.

Obamacare is a scam that takes away competition, takes away innovation, and will create a society of dependent drug induced derelicts seeking to fulfill their prescriptions at Walgreens in massive herds. Obamacare was created by the pharmaceutical lobby in Washington while holding hands with the insurance industry. And greedy politicians seeing a power grab bit down on the trap enslaving the rest of us for centuries to come, all because of the inadvertent evil conducted in the cubical of insurance companies all across America from the computers of the insurance actuary and their desire for safety, security, and “clean” statistics.

Yet again the path to hell is paved with good intentions and a desire for “safety” to help sell to the American population a concept that will ultimately lead to the destruction of everything we value. Insurance is a collective money racket that kills freedom and forces collective salvation. It hides the grim reality that if none of us were forced to purchase insurance of any kind, or pay for Social Security, or Medicare, that we would more than double our yearly incomes and gain the ability to pay cash for those tragedies that come our way instead of relying on predatory insurance companies to do it for us, which is simply a cleverly disguised form of social contract that attaches the weakest of society to the work of the strongest in a vain attempt at utopia leaving us all victims to the very greedy.

The Storm of Obama’s Presidency: Land of the Free, home of the Brave and broken limbs

The sky was turning black to the north as I rode my motorcycle at approximately 4:35 PM on June 29, 2012 in temperatures of 101 degrees. The sun was beating down on me as I rode home after a tough day, but cumulus nimbus clouds near my home were shooting up into the sky 8 miles away. I knew I was going to hit hard weather before I arrived home and it was going to be painful. I left my home earlier without a cloud in the sky and the heat was intense, so I left my helmet on its hook. All I had was a leather jacket and my Gargoyle sunglasses to protect me from what was coming.

As I approached Beckett Ridge, the sun was blotted out by the quick-moving storm moving south-east quickly. Lighting struck a mile ahead and I could see the distant hills embroiled in a mist. That usually means heavy rain. But not this time. This time the visual obstruction was something worse.

These kinds of things are not felt within a car the way they are on a motorcycle which is the primary reason I ride a motorcycle every day. Life is experienced much more sharply from a motorcycle seat. And most of the time, it is an exhilarating feeling. But when passing through massive storm cells on the open road, it can be very painful, and this was going to be one of those times.

Ahead about a mile down the road I saw the traffic lights and roadside signs begin to kick around violently. My location was without a breeze of any kind and was still a stagnate 101 degrees. The traffic light I was sitting at didn’t move a bit. So I knew I was looking at an oncoming weather front that moved just ahead of the terrible storm. I braced myself by holding onto my handlebars with extra strength so the oncoming wind would not push me off my motorcycle as I ground my teeth together to endure the invisible wave.

The phone on my hip began to vibrate. It was my wife. She knew I was riding home, yet she called over and over again. I knew she wouldn’t do that unless there was a very serious situation. My first thought was that somebody had died. But I could not answer because I had to hold on with all my strength as the traffic light I was stopped at suddenly went horizontal as the wind grabbed hold of it and ripped it about its mooring like a toy. My wife wanted to tell me that a terrific gust of wind had struck our home and toppled trees. That that vacuum from the sudden drop in pressure had blasted open windows, and displaced attic seals. She wanted to tell me that she thought our house had been hit by a tornado and that it was headed straight for me.

On my motorcycle I could not answer the constant attempts to call me because the wave of air hit me hard. Debris caught in a powerful gust of wind struck my face as my Gargoyle sunglasses deflected the hundreds of tiny pebbles away from my eyes. Cars around me pulled off the road as dust, parts of cloud, sheets of rain, and many small particles blasted south like millions of individual projectiles. I held on, gave my big motorcycle gas and just plowed through the wind directly.

I was still angry over the health care ruling by the Supreme Court the day before and the storm I found myself in seemed to be an appropriate metaphor for my feelings. The defection by Justice Roberts hit me in a similar way as this storm did, like a gust of gut busting wind coming from nowhere in the intense heat carrying with it millions of tiny dangers. My wife was calling me to get me off the road, to find shelter someplace. But I was not in the mood to avoid danger, but instead headed straight into it with my motorcycle defying logic.

On the backside of the wind gust was a 35 degree sudden drop in temperature that could be felt within 5 seconds of first being hit by the wind. The gusts of wind wanted to knock my motorcycle into the other lanes of traffic. So I leaned into them to stay straight on the road. The more this happened, the faster I went. At one point I had moved my speed up to 70 MPH to offset the force of the wind counting on my forward momentum to help keep me on the big bike. Being aggressive has a way of helping maintain control when danger is near. I was able to go faster the closer to home that I got as more cars left the road to wait out the storm. Small pellets of rain were beginning to fall and they felt like a thousand bee stings anywhere I didn’t have protection for my skin.

As I pulled into my driveway I could see some minor damage to my house and the results of downed trees. The area around my house was a debris field of broken limbs lying across the road and leaves torn from their branches. At one point an entire branch laid across the road completely blocking my path and rather than attempt to go around it, I plowed right through as my motorcycle cut through the branch like a saw, which surprised me. I expected a violent bump, but instead it was the branch that yielded. That was the kind of mood I was in as I parked my motorcycle in the garage calmly to find out who had died.

I was relieved to find out that my wife was simply worried about me, although needlessly. The damage around our home had made her worry what would happen when I hit the same thing on the open road. We’ve been in violent storms before on that motorcycle, but now that she wasn’t with me, she wasn’t thinking the way I was, which was turning to attack mode to deal with the crises.

As I looked the damage over from the fallen trees I simply thanked the storm for knocking out of my yard all the trees that were too weak to survive. I realized that it had been a while since we had a good storm, and many of the area trees had grown heavy with branches they could not structurally support under difficult conditions. So when those conditions arrived, the trees and their branches simply broke.

I realized that the same thing had happened to our country over the health care ruling. The weak branches of our society will be ripped from their growth. They will be knocked from the trees that support them, and they may not survive. I realized that unconsciously this is why I ran over that branch in the road instead of simply going around it. I had contempt for the branch because it had broken—because it could not withstand the heavy wind—because it allowed itself to grow unstable, like our national economy.

When confronted with the crises I leaned into the wind and plowed through it the way I do everything. People who behave like this are those who survive. Those who simply yield and break find themselves victims to the storms of this world. I explained to my wife that I would not have gotten off the road even if I saw a tornado in front of me, because I was not about to be turned away from my destination by the force of another condition. As I said it, I knew I wouldn’t drive straight into the heart of a tornado, but I would certainly do the absolute minimum deviation from my path to avoid it.

Like the branch, I did have contempt for those who pulled off the road seeking safety in grocery store and bank parking lots. They were like that big branch I ran over, yielding to the force of nature and becoming a victim to a force greater than they are. But during my ride home I did see hope. Traveling south, the opposite way as me, was another motorcycle rider who waved to me as he passed by laughing like a child on their first amusement park ride. He was caught up in the wind gust and riding it like a surfer does an ocean wave, and he was having the time of his life. He wore World War 1 style flying ace goggles with a business suit soaked to the bone and a neck tie flailing about over his shoulder. The dangerous trip home was worth it just to see that guy on the road with me laughing at the storm’s menace and embracing the adventure of a volatile day. It was worth the pain and danger to see that there are still Americans out there who embody the characteristics of “bravery.”

It’s in the storms of life that we discover what we are made of. That’s when we learn who are destined to become broken branches and downed trees. Who will pull off the road and hide, and who will barrel on through. And who will live and who will survive—by enduring tragedy. The health care vote by the Supreme Court was a giant storm that hit our nation. And it was painful to watch and listen to. But the bad guys have been caught in the wind, and those who are weak and have grown too big to endure have found themselves lying on the ground like so many downed trees.

As I looked at one of my downed trees I suddenly had the thought that I was looking at the Obama Presidency—a large tree that had grown quickly and without proper support. A large wind had exposed its weaknesses and it had broken under its own weight and was now a failure laying about in my yard. And such things are not useless entities that had completely failed in their life. The tree in my yard will make excellent firewood, just like the Obama Presidency. This winter, that tree will burn well in my fireplace. And the memory of Barack Obama will also be used for firewood to keep the fires of liberty burning long after the storms of the day have passed.
