Print Less but Transfer More Without Resolving the Issues

Staff Writer, DL Mullan
Foreign Affairs / Economics
__________________________________

In the article, "Print Less but Transfer More: Why Central Banks Should Give Money Directly to the People" by Mark Blyth and Eric Lonergan, the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) is getting the understanding that the world is fed up.

In order to keep the mobs with pitchforks from becoming a reality to the top 1%, the CFR proposes to pay us all off. Well, only the bottom 80% and if you pay taxes. So some of the mob will be satiated. 

This rumored payoff does not solve fundamental issues like the failed Trickle Down Economics that have befallen the lower 90%, the constant foreign wars, race wars, and class wars to keep the muddled masses from reading the CFR website. Nor, does the payout solve the issues of corporate greed, corporate tax dodging, and corporate personhood that has caused much of these economic situations. 

The idea that some cash can make things all better shows how stupid think tanks are. If you do not resolve what caused the economic failures in the first place, a hand full of cash is only going to stop the impending pitchforks for a little while. 

Here's a clue, smartypants: why don't you ask us? 

I for one have a load of general resolutions for you to make happen before the coming New Year:
  • create jobs like FDR did; The New Deal
  • close tax loopholes and safe harbors for corporations
  • no more subsidizing corporations like agriculture or oil, unless it is small farmers, organic farmers, and new energy invention creators
  • stop trying to control us
  • stop militarizing everything 
  • clean up the Earth without using Agenda 21
  • make the bottom 50% not owe any taxes, except payroll taxes
  • get rid of the Federal Reserve
  • create money like the Constitution requires: by Congress and the Treasury Dept
  • get rid of the Emergency War Powers Act and all central banking and related legislative acts
  • eliminate corporate personhood
  • return to American economics: see, Lyndon LaRouche
  • have money backed by Silver and Gold, and any other national asset
  • no more fabricated wars
  • no more government or megacorporate media 
  • retirees and disabled Americans on Social Security should get a 10% increase because they have been cheated cost of living increases for several years; no one on these programs should live in poverty if they have paid into the system
and the last one: get your heads out of your asses already.

The United States needs to return all illegal minors and adults to their respective countries. We need to get money and influence peddling out of politics. We need to stop dismantling our Constitution and Bill of Rights in lieu of corporate governance, confederations and unions. We need to arrest on treason charges anyone who is pushing United Nations' programs.

In addition, we need to get rid of the Council on Foreign Relations and other idiot organizations that put money in their pockets first with little realization that the rest of us have pitchforks until we are about to use them.

We are tired and we are pissed the hell off. 

Our economic recessions and depressions are done on purpose. Shush, I'm talking here. Americans are not stupid. We're disgruntled. 

We want our country back and we want treasonous terrorists out. CFR and your elitist cronies, that would be you. You feel me? Go make hell on Earth somewhere else. We're not interested.

While I have your attention, be sure to watch: Beware, Fellow Plutocrats, The Pitchforks Are Coming

Oh, yes, they are.

21st Century Witch Trials Begin: Religious Persecution Affirmed by SCOTUS

Staff Writer, DL Mullan
Religion / Constitution
______________________________
“Persecution is not an original feature in any religion; but it is always the strongly marked feature of all religions established by law. Take away the law-establishment, and every religion re-assumes its original benignity.”
- Thomas Paine, The Rights of Man (1791)

The Supreme Court displayed its ineptitude this past week as it sided with a corporation on its religious beliefs. That's right, folks, corporations are people too. They have religious rights over their employees. 

Sound to idiotic to be true? We only wish.
"What this ruling does is it moves in the direction this court has been moving already, which is talking about corporate personhood -- really treating corporations like people, saying that the corporation has a religion itself and that should be imposed on its employees," said Emily Tisch Sussman of the liberal Center for American Progress Action Fund.
Still do not believe we are enslaved by the corporate governmental structure? Here's the breakdown:
Monday's 5-4 high court ruling allowed some family-owned or other closely held businesses to opt out of a federal requirement to pay for contraceptives in health coverage for their workers.
What this decision amounts to is the Witch Trials. Contraception is the witchcraft and women are the witches. When are people going to grow the hell up? Your religion does not dictate other people's rights or freedoms. Sharia Law, uber-conservative Christian style has been established in the United States by the Supreme Court. 

In America, if you are a woman: you pay double for your health insurance and now birth control, get paid 30% less for the same amount of work, and are expected to mindlessly follow edicts that some old guys make up just because, even if you do not subscribe to that religion. 

Welcome to the 21st Century Witch Trials, where brains are optional.
“Our civil rights have no dependence on our religious opinions, any more than our opinions in physics or geometry.”
- Thomas Jefferson, A Bill for Establishing Religious Freedom (1779)

Exactly, Mr. Jefferson, but who is listening? Apparently not the Supreme Court who should know better. When religion and politics mix, people get burned at the stake.

Maybe it's time women went the way of Lysistrata but with a positive outcome instead of catering to men's needs in the end like SCOTUS just did with Hobby Lobby. The battle of the sexes is a long one because religion and society are male dominated concoctions. So why comply?  

If you haven't gotten the clues yet, the Founding Fathers of our nation as well as other thinkers of the time were dead set against religious glorification in law.
"Christian establishments tend to great ignorance and corruption, all of which facilitate the execution of mischievous projects."
- James Madison, letter to William Bradford, Jr. (1774)

And, of course:
"During almost fifteen centuries has the legal establishment of Christianity been on trial. What has been its fruits? More or less, in all places, pride and indolence in the clergy; ignorance and servility in the laity; in both, superstition, bigotry and persecution."
- James Madison, General Assembly of the Commonwealth of Virginia (1785)

But what do I know? I'm just a woman.
