Occupy Wallstreet Protests have roots in Communism

Norman Thomas ran for president six consecutive times from 1928 as a U.S. Socialist Party candidate. He said, “The American people will never knowingly adopt Socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the Socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.”


We currently are living in a nation which rests on most of the planks of communism, even though we still look at the U.S.A as a free nation. Most people don't realize we've lost most of those freedom many years ago. This current Occupy Wall street movement is the latest push to keep the pillars of the Communist Manifesto alive and well.

The 10 PLANKS stated in the Communist Manifesto:

1. Abolition of private property and the application of all rents of land to public purposes.
Americans do these with actions such as the 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution (1868), and various zoning, school & property taxes. Also the Bureau of Land Management (Zoning laws are the first step to government property ownership)

2. A heavy progressive or graduated income tax.
Americans know this as misapplication of the 16th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, 1913, The Social Security Act of 1936.; Joint House Resolution 192 of 1933; and various State "income" taxes. We call it "paying your fair share".

3. Abolition of all rights of inheritance.
Americans call it Federal & State estate Tax (1916); or reformed Probate Laws, and limited inheritance via arbitrary inheritance tax statutes.

4. Confiscation of the property of all emigrants and rebels.
Americans call it government seizures, tax liens, Public "law" 99-570 (1986); Executive order 11490, sections 1205, 2002 which gives private land to the Department of Urban Development; the imprisonment of "terrorists" and those who speak out or write against the "government" (1997 Crime/Terrorist Bill); or the IRS confiscation of property without due process. Asset forfeiture laws are used by DEA, IRS, ATF etc...).

5. Centralization of credit in the hands of the state, by means of a national bank with State capital and an exclusive monopoly.
Americans call it the Federal Reserve which is a privately-owned credit/debt system allowed by the Federal Reserve act of 1913. All local banks are members of the Fed system, and are regulated by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) another privately-owned corporation. The Federal Reserve Banks issue Fiat Paper Money and practice economically destructive fractional reserve banking.

6. Centralization of the means of communications and transportation in the hands of the State.
Americans call it the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and Department of Transportation (DOT) mandated through the ICC act of 1887, the Commissions Act of 1934, The Interstate Commerce Commission established in 1938, The Federal Aviation Administration, Federal Communications Commission, and Executive orders 11490, 10999, as well as State mandated driver's licenses and Department of Transportation regulations.

7. Extension of factories and instruments of production owned by the state, the bringing into cultivation of waste lands, and the improvement of the soil generally in accordance with a common plan.
Americans call it corporate capacity, The Desert Entry Act and The Department of Agriculture… Thus read "controlled or subsidized" rather than "owned"… This is easily seen in these as well as the Department of Commerce and Labor, Department of Interior, the Environmental Protection Agency, Bureau of Land Management, Bureau of Reclamation, Bureau of Mines, National Park Service, and the IRS control of business through corporate regulations.

8. Equal liability of all to labor. Establishment of industrial armies, especially for agriculture.
Americans call it Minimum Wage and slave labor like dealing with our Most Favored Nation trade partner; i.e. Communist China. We see it in practice via the Social Security Administration and The Department of Labor. The National debt and inflation caused by the communal bank has caused the need for a two "income" family. Woman in the workplace since the 1920's, the 19th amendment of the U.S. Constitution, the Civil Rights Act of 1964, assorted Socialist Unions, affirmative action, the Federal Public Works Program and of course Executive order 11000.

9. Combination of agriculture with manufacturing industries, gradual abolition of the distinction between town and country, by a more equitable distribution of population over the country.
Americans call it the Planning Reorganization act of 1949 , zoning (Title 17 1910-1990) and Super Corporate Farms, as well as Executive orders 11647, 11731 (ten regions) and Public "law" 89-136. These provide for forced relocation's and forced sterilization programs, like in China.

10. Free education for all children in public schools. Abolition of children's factory labor in its present form. Combination of education with industrial production.
Americans are being taxed to support what we call 'public' schools, but are actually "government force-tax-funded schools " Even private schools are government regulated. The purpose is to train the young to work for the communal debt system. We also call it the Department of Education, the NEA and Outcome Based "Education" . These are used so that all children can be indoctrinated and inculcated with the government propaganda, like "majority rules", and "pay your fair share". WHERE are the words "fair share" in the Constitution, Bill of Rights or the Internal Revenue Code (Title 26)?? NO WHERE is "fair share" even suggested !! The philosophical concept of "fair share" comes from the Communist maxim, "From each according to their ability, to each according to their need! This concept is pure socialism. ... America was made the greatest society by its private initiative WORK ETHIC ... Teaching ourselves and others how to "fish" to be self sufficient and produce plenty of EXTRA commodities to if so desired could be shared with others who might be "needy"... Americans have always voluntarily been the MOST generous and charitable society on the planet.

The Occupy Wall Street youngsters are too ignorant to realize that they have been so thoroughly indoctrinated in government schools and by Hollywood and the media that they have no idea how they are being used by labor unions and other leftist organizations. The protesters are calling for free college educations. The unions were protesting against the loss of collective bargaining with governments that determine their pension and health benefits, all paid for with public funding. Is it any wonder why people such a myself are warning against the Communist Roots of these protests?

Americans better insist that Capitalism emerges stronger from this organized anarchy. If not, Karl Marx and the foolish leftists will succeed in destroying what is left of our great Nation.

Mike

Personal Observations; TEA Party Rallies vs Occupy Protestests

TEA Party leaders (TPL's) often plan months in advance for a rally.

Occupy Protestors (OP's) also planned months in advance.

TPL's obtain permission to use a location which often times also included obtaining permits and insurance polices.

OP's Just show up in a large crowd disrupting everyone else. This includes but is not limited to Reducing business to the surrounding shops, Blocking traffic which prevents people from being able to get to the hospitals and any other place requiring access to a major bridge.

TPL's make sure to provide locations for participants to have access to washrooms. Sometimes they even order porta-potties just to be sure.

OP's pee in the bushes and shit into plastic bags and expect the local businesses to dispose of their waste. Then they bitch and moan because the owners of the private property they occupy, want to clean said property.

TPL's are often canceled due to political pressures on those who have granted use of private locations. Despite this frustration, NO TEA PARTY EVENT HAS EVER BEEN VIOLENT.

OP's use the power of their numbers to scare weak political leaders into bending over for them due to fear of violent retaliation. Then they threaten boycotts on local businesses that do not wish to grant them public access to their shops.

TPL's show respect for their leaders, even when they disagree with them, they often provide a platform for them to show up and explain themselves. This is often ignored by those leaders but it is almost always available.

OP's refuse to let senior members of the political organizations they are "Protesting" to speak. (They have allowed a select few members of Congress to pat them on the back, but only when they knew the response would be positive)

Summary:

TPL's have a history of respectful protest and despite this track record they are treated poorly by many. They are often prevented from organizing new events in fear that there may be violence and retaliation.

OP's literally shit on private property while dancing naked and have become darlings to the media and the left wing members of Congress.

Occupy Wallstreet

My thoughts about the Occupy Wall street Protests now spreading across the country.

I think it's sad. It's incoherent and it doesn't make any sense. Few of them seem to have any idea what they are actually protesting and the ones who do have an idea are largely not interested in liberty or freedom but rather revenge on the rich. Have you read their list of demands? It sounds like a communist party platform. From “free” education and health care to a guaranteed “living wage”. The forced abandonment of fossil fuels, and the forgiveness of all debt on a planetary scale. These would require the forcible seizure of private property, and the compulsion of “desirable” behavior by an extremely powerful government. Far from agitating for any species of liberty, even the kind envisioned by the hopelessly lazy and disaffected, these protesters are demanding the final dissolution of economic liberty. Anarchy is the handmaiden of tyranny. Anarchist movements are never followed by increased liberty.

There are a few good idea's mixed in there somewhere but it's all terribly misguided. Most of them are just angry and envious of the the wealthy. Many are only there because this is being sold as an anti-TEA Party movement. They blame the rich and the corporations for issues that are really the fault of Congress and our Federal Government and when you try to point this out to them, all they can say is no you're lying, you don't have the facts. The TEA party folks want to cut spending and get things under control, this movement is all about more spending, extreme spending. They want to right off all Student loans, and give away free college education. They want everything to be Nationalized, and they aren't afraid to say it out loud. Honestly this is the anti-TEA party.

Oregon gets $5 million Bonus for issuing Food Stamps

Oregon gets $5 million Bonus for issuing Food Stamps

This week officials in Oregon reported that the USDA has given the state $5 million in “performance bonuses” for signing up people eligible for food benefits and its “swift processing of applications.” This money is in addition to the 1.5 million award for making “accurate payments of food stamp benefits to clients.” Clients, really? Could this be why the number of food-stamp beneficiaries in Oregon has increased dramatically in the last few years? Since 2008 the state has seen a 60% boost in the number of food-stamp recipients, which means that more than 780,000 people (one out of five Oregonians) get groceries compliments of Uncle Sam.

This marks the fifth year in a row that Oregon has been “recognized” by the Fed's for “exceptional administration” of the entitlement program, according to the article posted on the states Department of Human Services website. The state official who runs SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) assures that her staff will “continue working very hard to exceed expectations” so that Oregonians can “put healthy foods on their table quickly.”

And if that isn't bad enough for you, they are also giving the state a two-year grant to test an new program to further streamline the process of getting food-stamps to their "clients" This will make it even easier for people to get food stamps because it grants state officials a waiver that allows them to grant the benefit without even interviewing the candidate.

This sounds like a great opportunity for even more fraud in the ever expanding universe of entitlement spending. Will we ever be able to get this under control?

The 2011 Obama Jobs Bill

Just days after the August jobs report showed zero growth, President Obama unveiled his idea for a $450 Billion jobs bill. He's calling for Congress to pass this bill right away. The bill includes the usual suspects, more spending on infrastructure and schools (using their code word investment). It's exactly the kind of thing you would expect to hear from a CCCP party leader from the 1960's. But the scariest part of his suggested plan is a further cut to the social security tax paid by employees and employers to 3.1%. That tax had already been dropped to 4.2% from 6.2% and is scheduled to return by the end of this year. All while our Social Security system is already falling short of cash and GOP presidential candidates are taking heat for calling it a ponzi scheme.

HELLO!!! Does anyone remember the Stimulus plan, $750 Billion dollars. That didn't do jack, but now President Obama is calling for another immediate $450 Billion to make an impact by the end of the year. Does this make sense to anyone? (Besides the folks at MSNBC or the Huff Post/Daily Kos) Our Economy is in the toilet because our private sector is stagnant, not because the Government isn't spending enough money. Until they relieve the private sector from unnecessary and burdensome regulations and taxes, the economy is not going to improve. Job creators will not invest if they have no idea what to expect in the near future.

Of course many already suggest that this plan is just one more pawn in the the Washington Political game since Obama knows the House will likely not move forward on such a plan. He's banking on the Hope that many will put their reelection in front of the demands from constituents. Only time will tell but John Boehner has already proven himself weak and cowardly so I have no doubt Obama's plan might work after all.

We'll see.

Can Obama use the 14th Amendment to ignore the Debt Ceiling?

It's been reported recently that the 14th Amendment could be used by the Obama administration to ignore the debt ceiling. It seems leftists are interested in the U.S. Constitution again, all of sudden. This after they smeared the Republicans for their new rules requiring a description of Constitutional authority on new legislation. The only problem is that as usual they have an incorrect view of what the measure actually means. Not only is their argument messed up but significant case law in regards to the matter is no longer clear, once again thanks to judicial activism. To make matters worse the misunderstanding of the 14th amendment is not only by Democrats but Iowa Sen. Charles Grassley has stated that he would relent if the Constitution was found to abrogate the concept.

In 1966 The Supreme Court case Katzenbach v. Morgan said that the section 5 of the 14th Amendment gave Congress the power to decide on how to implement the powers. but then in 1997 The court said no. Thirty-one years after Katzenbach, the Supreme Court revisited the "ratchet" interpretation, in the case of City of Boerne v. Flores. The Boerne Court stated, "This is not a necessary interpretation, however, or even the best one." This is way so many people tend to have the opinion that the U.S. Constitution is living and breathing, because the Supreme Court can change it's opinion so easily over time.

Will the Obama administration try to use the 14th Amendment? Nothing has stopped him so far from acting like a King, why does anyone think the Constitution will?

Where is the Obama I voted for?

No, I didn't vote for Barack Obama, I'm repeating what the nearly defrocked Catholic Priest Michael Phlager asked when doing a show with Tavis Smiley and Cornel West.

After watching these videos you must ask yourself, what did they expect Barack to do exactly?

2012 will be an election based solely on Class Warfare, is this what we want in America?

UNCUT TAPE: Former SEIU Official Steve Lerner Reveals Plan

This is how the left operates.

THREE IDEAS to destroy JP Morgan Chase. They must spread these three ideas to public.

  1. That we are not broke there is plenty of money
  2. They have the money, we need to get it back
  3. They are using Bloomberg and others in the Government as a vehicle to destroy us
Think about it, you may have already heard some of the lefts operatives using this, "We are not broke". You heard this in Wisconsin in direct opposition to the TEA Party message. Simply telling everyone that the state is not broke, will convince some, maybe enough to help sway the power back in their favor.

"We hope to inspire a much bigger movement about redistributing wealth and power in the country."

"As Frances Fox Piven and Cloward taught us, poor people movements are successful when they create situations of ungovernablity, and then you win victories"."

I've said it before and I'll say it again, the left is better at this than we are. They're not afraid to get in a room and hammer out these ideas. If you're not helping to build a network to combat this, you're essentially helping them win.

Jesse Jackson Jr. explains how to fix the U.S. Constitution with Broken Windows

This is the soundbite I've been waiting for.

I've been arguing against Obamacare with every leftist who dares to try and convince me for over a year now. Each time I raise the same point. Why is it that the Government should provide a service, why is it that Health Care is all of sudden a right, why stop there, why stop with Health Care? Shouldn't we all be entitled to a home and a car, maybe a computer with high speed internet access. Usually these leftist are too intelligent to agree with me. They quickly back away. "No, No, that's not the same thing", they say. "Health Care is different.", they say. "Health Care is a right everyone should have health care", they say.

At this point I usually ask why is it different, if health care is right now how long will it be until a car is right, a home, a computer? There is never a good answer to this question. Well now there is a good answer, the answer is NOW. Here we have Jesse Jackson Jr. on the floor of the House, calling for a change to the United States Constitution as the only solution to our nations problems. The change he suggests we need to make of course is Broken Windows.

Akbar Coup

So the Media is cheering for the great shift in power in Egypt, also known as a coup, when the military takes control. Usually when this happens, it's not a momentous occasion, but in the Middle East it's opposite land. When people in Iran rise up and protest against their controlling regime, the U.S Government sits on it's hands. But, when people in Egypt rise up in protest and the origins are unknown, the administration shows strong support even is it flips back and forth like a fish out of water. Why is the Media cheering this event so strongly? The answer is simple. Barrack Obama needs his own personal Berlin Wall. It doesn't matter if the protest leads to a genuine democratic government or not, as long as he can point to revolution during his watch it can be spun during the next 18 months in his favor. Even if the Muslim Brotherhood takes control, it's highly unlikely that will happen over night, so Obama and his administration have plenty to use as inspirational Hopey, Changy ammo leading up to 2012.

In the words of our own Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, "The Muslim Brotherhood is a largely secular organization". OH, wait a minute, Scratch that. After having his hand slapped, he now says that "Muslim" is simply an umbrella term pointing out that the Brotherhood has eschewed violence. Apparently he misunderstood the twitter post. Pay no attention to the history of the Brotherhood, the murders and executions or their assistance to the Nazis during WWII, they now claim peace, so of course we must believe them.

All I can say now is that I hope, I truly hope the people of Egypt stay stong and resist the temptation to fall in line with powers that will lead them down a worse path then the one they have just traveled.

Frances Fox Piven calls the jobless to violence.

In her recent article posted by "The Nation" Frances Fox Piven calls on the jobless to rise up in a violent show of solidarity and force. Like the original call by her and her late Husband Richard Cloward The Nation is still ready and willing to be beacon of violence and revolution in the U.S. So where are the angry crowds, the demonstrations, sit-ins and unruly mobs, she asks? "After all, the injustice is apparent. Working people are losing their homes and their pensions while robber-baron CEO's report renewed profits and windfall bonuses. Shouldn't the unemployed be on the march? Why aren't they demanding enhanced safety net protections and big initiatives to generate jobs"?

Our nation has not long to go before we see actions like this as a real possibility. If you have a subscription to the The Nation you should share this with as many people as you can, otherwise you might want to get one, so you can stay up on the actions and strategy of the Progressive left.

Ben Bernanke is not an idiot!

Something that has really got on my nerves lately is all the talk of Ben Bernanke and Central Bankers who don't get it and how Obama doesn't understand basic economics. I totally agree with the likes of Tom Woods and Jim Rodgers who believe our current situation is not sustainable. I also believe the Federal Reserve only compounds the problems. The part I take issue with is that even a Dumb Ass is right once in a while, even if only by accident.

How can the man who runs the Federal Reserve be wrong every time?

How can he make blanket statements like Quantitative Easing will not create inflation?

Who believes that this man or even our president doesn't understand basic economics? Is it not more reasonable that they understand quite well how the system works but they have an agenda in the works that requires the actions being taken. Instead of given these people a free pass by believing they act because they don't understand, why don't we instead start asking, what is it that you're really trying to do?

Illinois's Credit rating continues to suffer

Illinois which has some of the highest entitlements in the Country continues to prove why these plans do work in the long term. Simply said, you cannot keep borrowing money to give away when there is no way in sight to repay those loans in the future, especially when Businesses are leaving and there is very little in the works to bring in new industry. The only way the state can raise it's revenue will be to raise taxes, unless it makes some hard decisions and begins to cut from it's budget.

Bloomberg News reports that Illinois is faring poorly when compared to some foreign governments not known for solid financial management. Not only is Illinois tied with California for the worst credit in the nation, but Bloomberg found that Illinois recently had to pay a higher interest rate to borrow money than Mexico, Portugal and Peru. In less than two years, Illinois's credit rating dropped eight times, and there warnings that the state could receive another drop soon.

"Moody’s Investors Service changed the outlook on the state’s credit rating to negative from stable, which may indicate a cut will be made in grades affecting $25 billion of A1 rated general-obligation bonds. Moody’s cited the state’s failure to take steps to correct a “structural budget imbalance” and pension finances."

It's Time to get Serious, it's not too late, Yet.

We’ve reached a time in our society where things are not as simple as they once were. We used to be able to make a decision simply on what was just and right, this was relatively easy to determine. Those days are long over. People, we need to start putting forth some effort in learning what it means to be free. Learning which of our liberties are still secure and which ones have been stolen from us. It’s not so easy anymore to realize what our politicians are really trying to do, they come up with bills with names that sound good and fair, but are they really? The "Disclose Act" for instance, sure it sounds good that a politician be required to disclose where they get their contributions from, right? What the name does not reveal is that many organizations will be barred from any kind of donation thereby destroying freedom of speech as we know it, as it pertains to elections.

It’s no longer acceptable to sit back comfortably and assume all politicians are the same and it doesn’t matter which is elected. They are "NOT ALL!" the same, there are good people out there who will represent us but many of these people do not have an (R) or (D) next to their name. Many of these people will have an (L) or an (I) next to their name. These are not the people who are all over the news; they are not at the giant conventions and big money fund raisers. We need to start looking outside the box and focus on electing those individuals who best represent our principles and values. If we keep looking inside the box, we are allowing the Media and others to decide for us, who to vote for. Are you comfortable with that? Ask yourself this serious question. The last time you voted in an election, did you really know that the people you selected would represent your best interests? Did you really know what kind of person they were?

There have been a handful of really important bills in just the last couple of years. I don’t really expect many people to know this but again ask yourself, do you know how your Representatives voted on some of these bills? Do you even know which bills I might be referring to? Do you know where your favorite baseball team is in the standings? Do you know the names and records of their starting five? Do you know the life story of your favorite Actor or Actress? We need to start focusing on what is truly important in our lives if want any chance of remaining free and keeping America a great and powerful Nation.

Do you realize there is an active movement right now, trying to implement a National Popular Vote? If you live in Illinois, did you know your state legislature has already enacted this into law as have 4 other states. 5 other states have had it pass both of their legislative houses. The Electoral College is the embodiment of our Founders belief in both federalism and the idea that the country ought not to be dominated only by the largest population centers but equally across the Nation by those who live in Cities and those who live in Rural Areas. A National Popular Vote will create a large area of the Nation that politician’s will not even bother to campaign in because it wouldn’t be worth their time. 100% of the serious Campaigning will be done in New York, LA, Chicago and Boston and other huge population centers located in mostly Liberal States as well as Battle Grounds like Ohio. If you live in a rural state it will be up to your cousins in the big city to decide who will govern you and decide on the policies that will affect you and your business.

How many people who voted for Barrack Obama in 2008 really knew who he was? How many had read his books and understood their implications? How many really took the time to look at his voting record? How many really understood his stated positions? When People like Sean Hannity and Fox News reported on his own words and his involvement in Jeremiah Wrights Church it was written off as propaganda and a scare tactic. It’s time we as citizens really make the effort to inform ourselves on who is running this Nation. We all need to have a vested interest in our future; otherwise the last stand for freedom will come to an end.


It's time we all start taking this a little more seriously before it's too late.

Mike

Will our desire for instant gratification destroy us in the end?



I keep hearing and reading from people who are ready to take up arms against the government or who believe it's about time we do so. I admit, I have also found myself with these thoughts even though in my heart I know it's premature. Ironically it's "Hateful people" such as Glenn Beck who are acting as the voice of reason in telling us that it is much too early for that. He reminds us that the Founders tried to deal with the oppression from the King going through official non-violent channels for years, in an age where it took months over sea to deliver a letter. This adds perspective to our situation and clarity to the task at hand.

November is not that far away. It will be a major battle ground for freedom. Hopefully it will only be a hypothetical battle ground and not a literal one. I'm not sure our nation would survive at this point if driven to violence over such a small oppression as the soft tyranny we are now facing and have been facing for a while now. My fear is that the American people have become so inveterate to instant gratification, that I'm not sure the majority remembers what it's like to struggle in order to achieve ones ultimate goal. Not only has this mentality driven our society into deep debt with our charge it now and worry about it later philosophy it has also worked its way into our political system, "We need to act now or our financial system is going to crumble"!

We have been raised in this environment and many of us continue to raise our children in this manner. How many of you have direct experience with or know someone who has had a young child who understand that money comes from the ATM machine? It's funny, even cute when it happens but it should also give us pause and remind us the importance of teaching our children that before the money is in the ATM it must be earned. This is of course akin to the stories of inner city kids who believe milk comes from the store due to their lack of exposure to the country and of farms in general. Kids are taught how to say cow and milk when they are young but they have no real world grasp how they are connected. The same holds true for Cash and Economy.

You don't need to dig very far in order to find people who actually believe that our Government can continue to print money and spend without devastating effect, even though history screams at us, that this cannot work. Many of these people present themselves as altruistic leaders or experts. Either these people are really disconnected and believe their ideological agenda with such vigor they believe nothing can hurt the U.S. simply because nothing has yet, or they have other motives. In either case we will find ourselves in severe turmoil if we allow this way of thinking to infect the majority. If this does happen we will surely have a situation on our hands where our citizens will demand our Governments print enough money to right all the wrongs of the world, then sit and wonder how they became subjects to another King.

I'm not speaking from a high and mighty position. I have also fallen victim. I know how dangerous it can be. It is important to understand that before we can fix the future we must have a good firm grasp on our past. It's true what they say, or paraphrase in some cases,"Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it".

Mike

Ed Schultz wants Obama to be a dictator!



When ever President Bush said two words many on the left called Bush a dictator and this was bad thing. They called him a fascist and compared him to Hitler. Here is Shultz not only saying he wants Obama to act like a dictator, he says he doesn't want to hear any more of this bi-partisan crap, no more reaching across the isle. He even says, "those Dam Republicans"! That's weird, a Liberal nut job calling for our President to act like a Dictator and to forget this bi-partisan crap.
