It’s awfully easy to read bills if you quit reading when you come across something illegal. That should be an automatic vote against the bill.

Instead, you’ve got the Republican “players” wanting to “stay in the game” by submitting their own illegal bills that don’t go quite as far in degree but in principle are just as illegal as the progressive democrats’ original bills. If not for the likes of neo-cons such as Lindsey Gaham in the current Republican party, we wouldn’t be where we are today financially and in terms of liberties being lost.

If you think about it and reduce everything thing down, we’re arguing over conflicting thoughts. Thoughts are the sparking synapses in people’s heads. If it is mere thoughts that wind up yielding such incredible power with their documentation and subsequent enforcement, SPREADING the RIGHT ideas of governance is where resolution to the tyranny begins.

It’s called propaganda. It can and should be, from us, TRUTHFUL propaganda. It’s very easy to discuss matters with people when you have the truth on your side. After that, it’s mere rhetorical skills and utilizing prepared arguments. Each of us should be honing our skills in that department.

We can make the information age be the end of tyranny in this country. Hoarding knowledge of what is actually going on (hiding the truth) can be a thing of the past if we are vigilant and engaged.

Rice apparently knew something when she stated Obama’s 1st term would look a lot like the 2nd term of George W.

Oh, yeah. History IS repeating itself.

Read the following excerpts and see if you don’t recognize remarkable similarities between what was going on in 1939 and what has recently occurred and continues to occur here today:

Quoted from Chapter XVI, pp. 291-292, 298, 299:

“It was their hope that the Nazi party would serve as their tool. Especially was this the belief of the important industrialists who had feared the loss of their monopolies, and of the big agrarians who could not survive the crisis without fresh [national] subsidies. Both eagerly sought political power in order to safeguard their positions . . . against business competitors who attacked their monopolist privileges. They invested huge amounts of money in the Nazis . . . For the power they helped create all too soon became the master of its creators– “authoritarian,” independent of their will and regulation. Co-operation of the businessmen, big and small, with the [national] and Party bureaucracy is being enforced by those who now have political power, while those who command mere money power are forced to “co-operate” with the new government at the risk of their very existence. This co-operation entails generous spending and the greasing of official palms, but it does not in any way increase the businessman’s chance of regaining economic independence and freedom . . .

“Like schoolboys, Nazi Germany’s big bankers and industrialists had to listen to and applaud the [national] Secretary of the Ministry of Economics–formerly a Reichsbank employee of minor importance–who raised his finger warningly to Germany’s biggest private entrepreneurs and threatened: “Either you do what we tell you and satisfy our demands, or we shall take away the ‘freedom’ still left you . . . !

“The Nazi regime maintains that private property is a basic principle of society, but in practice it controls and regulates the use of such property. This is not what the capitalist who favored the Nazi party during the 1931-32 depression had wanted. He merely wanted the [nation] to find a way out for him . . . Formerly the competitive struggle of business interests decided who would bear the inevitable capital losses during a crisis. Today it is the [national] bureaucracy which dictates who is to be eliminated from business. A private enterprise can survive only to the extent to which it has closer and better relations with the [national] bureaucracy than its competitors.

“The greater the economic difficulties, the more the individual businessman fears that he will be sacrificed by the authoritarian regime “in the interest of the [nation].

“Therefore the dictatorship of the [national] bureaucracy becomes increasingly a dictatorship over the capitalist entrepreneurs, the small as well as the big businessmen, the shopkeepers as well as the great corporations . . . ”

NOW, does everyone understand why I continue to persistently use the “F-word?” “Fascism,” as much as the liberals in both parties hate to hear it (much to my delight) is here and thriving.

2009 America has a lot in common with 1939 Germany. We beat the fascist military during WWII but their economic system whipped our butts.

What are you going to do about it? Scream “green heil!” or join the resistance?
