I headed into the gym early Sunday morning and jumped on the elliptical machine to get my blood moving before lifting. The wall of TVs offered up sports, that MTV Jersey Boobs and Biceps show, and various news programs...
Perpetual government gadfly Gene Sperling: bla bla bla... So our military and our old people can get paid... bla bla bla... The president is committed...
Mark Zandi of Moodys came on and said it would all be high tides and green grass and the economy would recover if DC would just raise the debt ceiling. Gloria Borger nodded in agreement instead of laughing in his face.
Fareed Zakaria asked why we even had a debt ceiling at all?
The funniest one of all was CNN asking the president of GM about how to be successful in a down economy. I was only looking at the captions, no sound, but I could imagine his answer.
"Well Gloria, just tell the feral government you'll collapse and destroy hundreds of thousands of jobs. Ha ha! Don't worry, they're too stupid to see through the scam. Ha ha ha! They'll stab the taxpayers and bond holders in the guts so fast it'll make your head spin. Before you know it, you'll be swimming in other people's money!"
All this was performed by our press and their government guests with a straight face...
Here's something the soap opera disguised as news won't tell you:
The military, retirees and social security recipients have already been paid, so the drama and the stupid Countdown to Debt Ceiling Armageddon clock are all BS, aimed to keep us all in a perpetual state of panic and looking to The Government like the Munchkins eagerly look to The Wizard when the wicked witch of the west mounts her broom.
We could go another month without defaulting. It would take some brains over at treasury to prioritize, so Geithner and Obama are not up to the task, but there are probably some wiz kids over there who can figure it out.
The World is a Messy Place, and Global Elites Want to Clean it Up, Organize it.
The international oligarchy looks down from on high and frown upon us, little ants going about life, doing what we will, refusing to march to the master drummer. They don't like it. They need us marching in a line carrying money to the governments, all to protect their rent streams.
The media is the Handmaid of the International Oligarchy
...doing it every bidding, unconsciously, reflexively. The oligarchy allows people like Thomas Friedman and Fareed Zakaria into the inner circle, the power conclaves, the Bilderburger Covens and the Davos gatherings. This fools the press into thinking they are in the club.
So now, the press afflicts the afflicted and comforts the powerful
We are being scammed, America...
