Partial Objects -- “Florida mandates drug testing for welfare recipients; but only 2% tested positive.” And now the truth:
'2b. “The cost of the drug test is the responsibility of the individual tested.” But if you are clean you get reimbursed. Would you pay to fail?' -- 'The largely irrelevant debate about whether poor people take drugs (yes) or whether this is state intrusion (yes) deliberately avoids exposing the true systemic corruption of the process: commitment not to identifying, and then solving, actual problems; but a society insisting that appearances/narratives/ideology are paramount.'August 25 2011
YouTube -- GoldSilver.com: Will there be a one world currency?
'Mike Maloney is asked if we are moving toward a one world currency, but is this possible? What is the relationship between the wealth of a country and war? Would all countries lose their economy in order for this to happen? At what cost?' -- I see plans within plans. http://www.thedailybell.com/2683/Edward-Mandell-House

The Daily Bell -- DB Briefs: Cameron Blames Parents for London Riots
'Dominant Social Theme: Government will give the kids what their parent didn't—a good A$$ whoopin! The blame game has started and naturally the government will not accept any responsibility. In this case, Cameron actually lays the blame at the parents of the tens of thousands of people rioting throughout the UK. We tend to think that this situation was destined to occur, as it will likely happen in other regions of Western society as well, because the system is financially and morally bankrupt. Inevitably the oppressors will face these sorts of "us and them" backlashes as people witness their living standards dissipate along with their future hopes and dreams. No one condones the riots and certainly this kind of misguided violence will do nothing to solve the declining public confidence in Britain's overly authoritarian government. One thing you can bet on is that the country that boasts the world's greatest concentration of cameras spying on its citizens is likely to get a few more.'July 28 2011
The Onion -- Al-Qaeda Claims U.S. Mass Transportation Infrastructure Must Drastically Improve Before Any Terrorist Attacks
'"The al-Qaeda network is fully prepared to continue the jihad against the American infidels by launching deadly attacks, but your outdated and rusting transportation infrastructure needs to be completely overhauled for those strikes even to be noticed," al-Zawahiri said. "We want to turn your bridges into rubble, but if we claimed credit for making them collapse, nobody would ever believe us." "We'd really just be doing you a favor because then you'd actually have to rebuild them," al-Zawahiri added. Throughout the threatening video, the terrorist leader questioned the priorities of American politicians, asking why they would refuse to fund engineering projects that would create jobs, bombing opportunities, and new ways for the U.S. compete globally.'July 08 2011
BFI: Film & TV Database -- EQUINOX SPECIAL The KING OF CHAOS (1998)
Broadcast Channel 4 1/1/1998 -- 'Docu-drama of what the media might be like by the year 2012. EQUINOX's first drama, set in the future, focuses on the facts behind the suspicious death of media mogul, Liam Keller, whose software applications have had a huge impact upon broadcast TV, earning him enemies around the world. In the late 1990s, Keller had devised 'Gambit', a virus which enabled all technologies (the internet, television broadcasting, e-mail) to converge – to communicate with one another. Found floating in the Thames, a television current affairs programme sets out to explore how Keller might have met his death. Through Keller's life story this drama explores the consequences of future technology, reflecting on what might happen to our present day media over the next few years.' -- Keller: "The government is committing large scale larceny... [forcing] you to pay taxes for services that they aren't providing. From a consumer point-of-view, government is a failing brand."June 22 2011
The Daily Bell -- Federal Reserve 'Embeds' Employees in Banks
'...many justifications are inevitably advanced for regulation including the idea of "market failure." This is the fundamental defense of modern levelers. But those who defend this concept cannot, when pressed, name a single "failure" caused by the market. Inevitably, when one begins to examine this argument, one finds that it was a previous rule or law that set in motion the distortion that the "market" supposedly caused. Regulation also forces bigness. The US – and the West – long ago passed into a kind of market-fascism where large corporations (themselves a product of regulation) are essentially paired with their regulatory overseers. It doesn't matter whether the regulations seem to make sense or not. The system is evidently and obviously driven by Anglo-American power elite interests and the end result is intended to be one where markets and corporations are big enough to function within the context of a "one world order."'June 21 2011
YouTube -- Freedomain Radio: True News: Vancouver Riots, Greek Austerity & Bitcoin Thefts
"Democracy is a system of bribery. And the only way a system of bribery of the general population can work – here's something for nothing, here's 'free' schools, here's 'free' health-care, here's 'free' pensions, here's 'free' roads – the only way that this can ever work is through debt. The only way that democracy can remotely appear to function is through debt. Democracy is debt. Democracy is predation on the unborn and the non-voting. It is the lending of the bankers on the future collateral of the unborn that allows for the existing population to be bribed in a democracy. Of course the government is going to do what the bankers want because without the bankers lending them money they can't bribe the population in order to get into power. Democracy is bribery; bribery is borrowing; borrowing is debt. When you have a system that is based on borrowing and debt, the bankers are going to end up in control of the system. The problem is democracy. The problem is the state."

Adam Curtis Blog -- THE BABY AND THE BAATH WATER
'Elections were due in Syria in 1947, and the Americans decided to give "a discreet nudge here and there". This involved warning landowners, employers, ward bosses and police chiefs not to intimidate the voters. The American oil companies were paid to put up big posters telling the Syrians to "vote for the candidate of your choice" (apparently this baffled all the Syrians because the posters didn't mention any candidates by name). Hundreds of taxis were hired to take voters to the polls free of charge. And the Americans brought in automatic, tamper-proof voting machines. It didn't go as expected. The landowners and other elites ignored all the warnings and intimidated everyone. There were massive gun fights and scores of people were killed. The taxi-drivers bonded together and sold themselves to different candidates - promising to make their passengers vote the "right" way.' And worst of all, most of the pro-American candidates defected to other foreign powers.'June 13 2011

Freedomain: The Logic of Personal and Political Freedom -- The Gun in the Room
'One of the most difficult – and essential – challenges faced by libertarians is the constant need to point out “the gun in the room.” We hear nonstop nonsense about the “social good,” the “redistribution of income,” the “education of children” and so on – endless attempts to bury the naked barrel of the state in a mountain of syrupy metaphors. In more than 20 years of debating these issues, though, I’ve never met a single soul who wants to either shoot me himself or have someone else shoot me. I take enormous solace in this fact, because it explains exactly why these euphemisms are so essential to the maintenance and increase of state power. The reason that euphemisms are constantly used to obscure “the gun in the room” is the simple fact that people don’t like violence very much. Most people will do almost anything to avoid a violent situation. Just keep pointing out the gun in the room, over and over, until the world finally starts awake and drops it in horror and loathing.'May 21 2011
Infowars -- Government Orders You Tube To Censor Protest Videos
'Hayes has embarked on an effort to legally prove that the enforced collection of council tax by government is unlawful because no contract has been agreed between the individual and the state. His argument is based on the sound legal principle that just like the council, Hayes can represent himself as a third party in court and that "Roger Hayes" is a corporation and must be treated as one in the eyes of the law. The British government doesn't want this kind of information going viral in the public domain because it is scared stiff of a repeat of the infamous poll tax riots of 1990, a massive tax revolt in the UK that forced the Thatcher government to scrap the poll tax altogether because of mass civil disobedience and refusal to pay. When viewers in the UK attempt to watch videos of the protest, they are met with the message, "This content is not available in your country due to a government removal request."' -- It is a fraud to conceal a fraud.

YouTube -- Freedomain Radio: The State as Family
'Why it is so hard to get people to think rationally about the state?' -- "Your parents own the house, so you have to obey them, or leave. The government owns the country, and so you have to obey it, or leave. Don't you see the pattern? If you want to change the government, change the family. If you want a more peaceful society, have more peaceful families."

Freedomain Radio -- #1295 The Rise of Corruption Part 3 - Avoiding Self-Knowledge (MP3)
"The only knowledge we avoid is self-knowledge. Everybody already knows. When you say the state is violence, everybody already knows it. The reason we know that everybody knows it is the speed at which they get upset. If they didn't already know the implications, they wouldn't get upset. Statism is violence; there is no 'God'. You have to work hard to avoid that knowledge because it's so obvious. So what are they avoiding? They are avoiding self-knowledge: knowledge they already possess about themselves, about society, about their friends and family, about truth, about virtue, about integrity, about courage. All of these things. So when you speak an idea and people get upset, the knowledge that they are avoiding is not what you're saying but what they already know. They are reacting not to you but to themselves. If you have to conform to other people's bigotries or face attack and rejection, that's not a relationship, it's a cult. And everybody knows that."

The Daily Bell -- IMF Austerity Is Headed to America – Watch Out!
'One needs a problem in order to provide a solution. And the move is on, most obviously, to create ever-closer global governance and perhaps an alternative currency. Modern central banking has done its work, throwing Western economies into confusion and disarray. Europe is already suffering from IMF-style austerity tactics and Britain is implementing them now. The US is next on the list. The IMF austerity message is being "prepped" by the S&P warning... The result is a controlled social implosion that the powers-that-be can capitalize upon to introduce a new system, presumably a more globalized one, complete, perhaps, with a global central bank administering a new currency. IMF provisions featuring privatization, tax hikes and public sector "austerity" are designed in my view to provoke the very public anger that Western elites are counting on to fuel a conversation about yet MORE centralization and MORE governmental control...'April 19 2011
YouTube -- Freedomain Radio: True News 15: Statism is Dead 5/5: Terrorism, 9/11 and Politics
"Why do you pay for the wars? Well, for the same reason you'd pay off Tony Soprano. -- Every goal the government pursues is a political policy which is entirely dependent upon the initiation of violence. This is why terrorism is so impossible to define. Statism is terrorism. We are educated by terrorists. We are controlled, kidnapped, imprisoned and bribed by terrorists. And when we see it, and feel it, and speak it clearly, it will end."
