188. The Illusion Of Punishment: The Underground History of American Education by John Taylor Gatto from archive.org

The Illusion Of Punishment 

   What Western spirituality says is paradoxical — rather than avoiding these hardships, it  asks you to embrace them. It taught the counter-intuitive response that willing acceptance  of these burdens was the only way to a good, full life, the only way to inner peace.  Bending your head in obedience, it will be raised up strong, brave, indomitable, and wise.  Now let me go through the list of penalties from this perspective.   

     About labor, the religious voice says that work is the only avenue to genuine self-respect.  Work develops independence, self-reliance, resourcefulness. Work itself is a value, above  a paycheck, above praise, above accomplishment. Work produces a spiritual reward  unknown to the reinforcement schedules of behavioral psychologists like B.F. Skinner,  but if you tackle it gladly, without resentment or avoidance, whether you're digging a  ditch or building a skyscraper, you'll find the key to yourself in work. If the secular  aversion to work is a thing to be rationalized as schools do, requiring only minimal effort  from children, a horrifying problem is created for our entire society, one that thus far has  proven incurable. I refer to the psychological, social, and spiritual anxieties that arise  when people have no useful work to do. Phony work, no matter how well paid or praised,  causes such great emotional distortions that the major efforts of our civilization will soon  go into solving them, with no hint of any answer in sight. 

      In the economy we have allowed to evolve, the real political dilemma everywhere is  keeping people occupied. Jobs have to be invented by government agencies and  corporations. Both employ millions and millions of people for which they have no real  use. It's an inside secret among top-echelon management that should you need to cause a  rise in stock value, this can be engineered by eliminating thousands of "useless" jobs; that  is done regularly and, I would presume, cynically.

Chapter Fifteen 



The Psychopathology of Everyday Schooling 

In 1909 a factory inspector did an informal survey of 500 working children in 20 
factories. She found that 412 of them would rather work in the terrible conditions of the 
factories than return to school. 

— Helen Todd, "Why Children Work," McClure's Magazine (April 1913) 

In one experiment in Milwaukee, for example, 8,000 youth... were asked if they would 
return full-time to school if they were paid about the same wages as they earned at work; 
only 16 said they would.

Theory Used to Force Vaccination of Children is Not Always True

Parents remain concerned about the side effects of the various immunizations, including sometimes fatal reactions and questions as to whether these immunizations are a cause in the exponential growth of autism spectrum disorders.

There is increasing pressure to force vaccinations on children, and increasing marketing of vaccines for adults, including pneumonia and shingles. Children cannot attend daycare or school without proof of vaccinations. The theory behind these requirements is that if everyone is vaccinated, the probability of any individual contacting the disease is reduced. 41 students at Harvard University were infected with mumps, and all 41 students had been immunized for mumps. It is likely that all or nearly all of the students at Harvard had been given one or more MMR inoculations that should have prevented the mumps outbreak based upon the “herd immunity” theory.

Joseph Mercola, DO published an article on May 10, 2016 titled “Mumps Being Spread by and Among Vaccinated People.” This article discusses the effectiveness of mumps vaccine, and then extends to the effectiveness of vaccines in general. The Harvard mumps outbreak was blamed upon the close living conditions of the university campus. These conditions are where an effective vaccine is most needed. Dr. Amesh Adalja is an infectious disease specialist at the University of Pittsburgh Center for Health Safety. Dr. Adalja’s explanation of the Harvard mumps outbreak is more of a criticism of the mumps virus than an explanation. The mumps vaccine may not work where it is most needed.

CHAPTER V. OF REASON, AND SCIENCE.

Reason What It Is

When a man Reasoneth, hee does nothing els but conceive a summe totall, from Addition of parcels; or conceive a Remainder, from Substraction of one summe from another: which (if it be done by Words,) is conceiving of the consequence of the names of all the parts, to the name of the whole; or from the names of the whole and one part, to the name of the other part. And though in some things, (as in numbers,) besides Adding and Substracting, men name other operations, as Multiplying and Dividing; yet they are the same; for Multiplication, is but Addition together of things equall; and Division, but Substracting of one thing, as often as we can. These operations are not incident to Numbers onely, but to all manner of things that can be added together, and taken one out of another. For as Arithmeticians teach to adde and substract in Numbers; so the Geometricians teach the same in Lines, Figures (solid and superficiall,) Angles, Proportions, Times, degrees of Swiftnesse, Force, Power, and the like; The Logicians teach the same in Consequences Of Words; adding together Two Names, to make an Affirmation; and Two Affirmations, to make a syllogisme; and Many syllogismes to make a Demonstration; and from the Summe, or Conclusion of a syllogisme, they substract one Proposition, to finde the other. Writers of Politiques, adde together Pactions, to find mens Duties; and Lawyers, Lawes and Facts, to find what is Right and Wrong in the actions of private men. In summe, in what matter soever there is place for Addition and Substraction, there also is place for Reason; and where these have no place, there Reason has nothing at all to do.

Natural Cancer Treatment Quiz from The Cancer Tutor

Natural Cancer Treatment Quiz

Dr. Ewan Cameron and Linus Pauling compared Vitamin C therapy to chemotherapy. Which group of patients -- the ones on Vitamin C or chemo -- lived longer on average, and by how much?

The Vitamin C patients lived an average of 10 times longer than the chemo patients. In many cases, cancer is nothing but a symptom of a weakened immune system. Chemotherapy virtually destroys an already weakened immune system, and it is the immune system that deals with cancer on a normal basis. On the other hand, Vitamin C helps build the immune system.

A natural cancer treatment doctor treated 33,000 cancer patients, many of whom had been given up for dead by orthodox medicine. What was his verified cure rate?

Dr. William Donald Kelley had a 93% cure rate on patients who were not too far gone before they went to him. This cure rate was verified by a 5-year study by an orthodox doctor. Dr. Kelley's technique is called "metabolic" therapy, and it was designed to build the immune system and safely and selectively kill cancer cells.

“Medicaid Support of Water Fluoridation.” from FAN

may  31, 2016  

By Ellen Connett (Managing Director) & Carol Kopf (Media Director)

A very concerning development has occurred in New York State which we suspect may become a toxic blueprint for other states: New York has approved the use of scarce Medicaid dollars for fluoridation programs in a dangerously misguided attempt to provide low-income communities with “dental care.”
According to James Helgerson, director of New York’s Medicaid program, “New York seeks to become the nation’s health care reform laboratory.”  One of these “reforms” includes “Medicaid Support of Water Fluoridation.”
Medicaid is the primary source of health insurance coverage for low-income populations. In New York’s budget for 2015, Medicaid dollars will pay for the

“planning, design and construction, and start-up of fluoridation systems, and replacing, repairing or upgrading of fluoridation equipment for such public water systems…”

It’s a new low to take scarce medical insurance dollars from the poorest and most disadvantaged people in New York and earmark it for forced fluoridation programs, particularly when there is evidence showing that low-income communities are at higher risk of suffering harm from fluoride ingestion. In fact, a study conducted in New York found that fluoridation is associated with a significant increase in pre-term births, and specifically found that “this relationship was most pronounced among women in the lowest SES groups and those of non-white racial origin.”
Pre-term birth is a serious issue, as it increases the child’s risk for a range of health problems, including learning and behavioral disorders.

Every time I re-publish this piece, I find another angle to emphasize. This time, it's reductionism, the strategy of making the truth, whatever it is, into something overly simple and, therefore, deceptive and false. Approaching the subject of human suffering and anguish, from an honest viewpoint, gives you all sorts of experience to explore: people are abused, they are minimized, they have severe nutritional deficits, they live in poverty, they are surrounded by the threat of violence, they receive poor and confusing educations, they are exposed to toxic chemicals and drugs, they develop weak immune systems, they don't know how to cope with peer pressure to conform, they never learn what freedom means, and so forth and so on. And then...all this is reformulated and boiled down to a series of so-called mental disorders with names and labels.  Symbols.  Reductionism.   Such symbols can snare many people and drag them into slave-camps of the mind.

By Dr. Mercola
The U.S. House of Representatives passed a bill that would provide $622 million to fight the Zika virus. Yet, by White House estimates, this is "woefully inadequate." They've recommended directing $1.9 billion to fight this latest declared public health emergency.¹
I use the term emergency loosely here, as we've seen these types of overzealous responses before. First, a new threat is revealed. Remember SARS, bird flu, swine flu and Ebola? Or even the measles "outbreak" in 2015?
There was widespread fear, outrage and panic that the disease would sweep across the U.S., affecting populations from border to border. Calls for experimental drugs and vaccines were made and millions, if not billions, of dollars were spent. And for what?
In most cases, the diseases fizzled out on their own, exacting a far less sensational health toll than the media and, often, the government had you believe. In the case of swine flu, for example, the U.S. government ordered 20 million doses of the drug Tamiflu — costing $2 billion — to fight the pandemic that never was.
That drug has a shelf life of three years. Money well spent? Now they're proposing another $1.9 billion to fight Zika — is this a case of history repeating itself?

The Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO) is a United States Federal Law passed in 1970 that was designed to provide a tool for law enforcement agencies to fight organized crime.  RICO allows prosecution and punishment for alleged racketeering activity that has been executed as part of an ongoing criminal enterprise. 
Activity considered to be racketeering may include bribery, counterfeiting, money laundering, embezzlement, illegal gambling, kidnapping, murder, drug trafficking, slavery, and a host of other nefarious business practices.

Many Bernie Sanders activists and supporters are understandably disgusted by the contemptuous mistreatment they and their candidate have received from the corporate-Clintonite Democratic Party and its numerous media allies. The examples of this disrespect and abuse include:

The discourteous rapid-fire inquisition that the New York Daily News editorial board conducted with Sanders and then released as an interview transcript prior to the New York Democratic presidential primary last April.
Hillary Clinton telling MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough that the Daily News grilling “raise[d] a lot of questions” about Sanders’ qualification for the presidency.
Bill Clinton in New Hampshire calling Sanders and his team “hermetically sealed” purists, hypocrites, and thieves and mocking Sanders as “the champion of all things small and the enemy of all things big.”
Hillary “proving that there is nothing and no one she won’t sacrifice on the altar of her political ambition” (Mark Finkelstein) by sending her daughter Chelsea out to absurdly charge that Sanders’ single-payer health care plan would “strip millions and millions and millions of people of their health insurance.”

The number of ‘whistleblowers’ that have emerged over the years regarding the ongoing ‘war against terror’ is truly eye-opening. Unfortunately, many remain innocently ignorant given the fact that mainstream corporate media will not touch this stuff. They are, however, very quick to jump on the ‘terrorist’ bandwagon when an alleged attack is carried out, supposedly by ‘The Islamic State.’
As prominent author and Canadian economist Dr. Michel Chossudovsky said, a statement that’s been used in several articles here at Collective Evolution:

We are dealing with a criminal undertaking at a global level…The global war on terrorism…is fake, it’s based on fake premises. It tells us that somehow America and the Western world are going after a fictitious enemy, the Islamic state, when in fact the Islamic state is fully supported and financed by the Western military alliance and America’s allies in the Persian Gulf. They say Muslims are terrorists…they’re not the product of Muslim society, and that should be abundantly clear…The global war on terrorism is a fabrication, a big lie and a crime against humanity.

7 Signs of Testicular Cancer (and How to Prevent It) By Tony Isaacs

7 Signs of Testicular Cancer (and How to Prevent It)

By Tony Isaacs

In a hurry? Click here to read the Article Summary...

Testicular cancer is a highly curable cancer that develops in the testicles. Located inside the scrotum, the testicles are a loose bag of skin underneath the penis and are part of the male reproductive system. Typically, this cancer develops in one or both testicles (the testes) in young men, but it can occur in older men as well and in rare instance, in younger boys. The odds for getting testicular cancer are estimated to be about 1 in 200, with about 80,000 cases being diagnosed each year in the United States alone. Although testicular cancer is considered to be rare, it is the most common cancer in American males between the ages of 15 and 35.
Knowing the signs of testicular cancer will help with early detection of the disease. The good news is that testicular cancer is notable for having among the highest cure rates among all cancers. It has an average five year survival rate as high as 99%, depending on how early the cancer is detected.
The even better news (especially for those who do not want to subject themselves to the dangers of chemotherapy or radiation) is that testicular cancer is also highly curable through natural alternative means. There are also several measures that can be taken to help avoid testicular cancer from developing in the first place.

Pictures Prove Mini Nukes Caused 9-11 Devastation by Dennis from bibliotecapleyades.net

by “Dennis” September 18, 2010 from PakAlertPress Website   All research provided by: www.drjudywood.com and http://911u.org/   There are only two events known to cause ground-hugging pyroclastic flows (pictured below): A volcanic eruption A thermo nuclear detonation   On the morning of September 11, 2001, we were told a fairy tale.   That wide body jets flew into the twin towers and completely destroyed them. Let me repeat that: Passenger planes (large hollow aluminum tubes) flew into industrial steel, marble and concrete sky scrapers, and caused them to turn into a pile of dust. And the worst part about this fairy tale is that we, the American people believed it.   Now, nine years later, it’s time to wake up from your slumber and take a good hard look at what did and did not happen on that fateful day.   The conventional explanation we were provided, by government and media, for a top-down highly destructive gravitational collapse, in near-free-fall times, is physically impossible, and is thus about as worthy of discussion as is the belief that the Earth is flat. FICTION: Passenger jets flew into the Twin Towers, and the burning jet fuel caused them to collapse.   FACT: The Twin Towers did not collapse. They suffered a mid-air pulverization due to an extreme unconventional energy source that caused the initial upward trajectory of so much of the towers’ mass during the ‘collapses’ as (supposedly only) gravity was pulling them down.   FICTION: The burning jet fuel melted all of the steel beams causing the buildings to collapse directly onto their own footprint.

The end of chemical medicine: Superbug discovered in America that resists ALL known antibiotics... blind faith in failed pharma will soon cost you your life

Monday, May 30, 2016
by Mike Adams, the Health Ranger

(NaturalNews) It's always interesting to study how civilizations collapse and eras of seemingly great human ingenuity come crashing to an end. Since the discovery of penicillin by Alexander Flemming in 1928, the chemical medicine industry has promised humanity that all our ills will be cured by prescription medications. We've been promised that cancer, diabetes, heart disease and even Alzheimer's will all be cured once the pharmaceutical industry finally discovers the correct chemicals for treatment. But today, we've come to realize that Big Pharma's chemicals aren't curing us... they've just DOOMED us.

Superbugs are antibiotic-resistant bacteria. They're immune to Big Pharma's chemicals, in other words, and they come into existence because of the over-prescription of existing antibiotics. If you attack bacteria with chemicals for long enough, the bacteria develop biological immunity to the chemical. It happens automatically, and it's part of Mother Nature's survival problem solving at the cellular level. The problem, of course, is that it only takes one mutation to render an entire antibiotic drug obsolete.

As bacteria become more and more resilient to Big Pharma's toxic chemicals, the medical efficacy of antibiotic drugs collapses, one by one. Big Pharma's chemicals fall like dominoes, overrun by the molecular ingenuity of Mother Nature. To prevent a "superbug apocalypse," drug companies and hospitals have kept one chemical in reserve: colistin, a "last ditch defense" against superbugs. This is the drug that's used when everything else fails... it's the very last option when a patient is being literally eaten alive by antibiotic-resistant bacteria.

The energy

by Jon Rappoport May 30, 2016

These are notes I made prior to putting together my collection, Exit From The Matrix: A person tends to "gather up his own life" and construct its boundaries and possibilities in his own mind. It's like taking a snapshot of life and pinning it to the wall and saying: THIS IS WHAT MY LIFE IS.  IT COULDN'T BE ANYTHING ELSE. And when he does that, he builds a thought-form that tells him where he can go and what he can do and where he won't go and what he won't do. I once had a client who was very enthusiastic about our work.  In each session, he would come across new ideas and resolve to put them into action.  However, he never did put even one idea into action.  It was as if these new possibilities were bouncing off something already set in his mind.  And that something was, literally, a thought-form he had built years earlier, for the purpose of defining his life. This thought-form operated as a barrier.  It repelled anything new.

What Is Horseradish Good For? by Dr. Mercola

What Is Horseradish Good For?

By Dr. Mercola
If it were wine, horseradish might be described as having an earthy, robust flavor, accompanied by an oddly sweet heat that warms you to your core. One taste and its intensity radiates not so much in your mouth as in your sinuses.
A cold-hardy plant, horseradish can be called a spring, fall or winter crop. Harvest by loosening the dirt around the plant with a digging fork (for minimal damage) before pulling out the roots. Cut off the tops and store them in a cool place until needed.
For ultimate freshness and heat, peel and grate for whatever dish or therapeutic use you may have.
As a condiment, horseradish is often prepared into a sauce to eat on prime rib or roast beef sandwiches. Some say it's red when it's used on shrimp (mixed with ketchup), and white when it's spread on beef.
Either way, it adds a kick of both heat and flavor, but be aware that heat from your stove will diminish the heat in the horseradish. Grated into casseroles, salads, mashed potatoes, deviled or scrambled eggs, this root is a versatile attention-grabber that can light up any dish or beverage.
Referred to botanically as Cochlearia armoracia, horseradish was referenced in the Greek Delphic Oracle as being worth its weight in gold. Some early Greek healers, finding no Icy Hot in the bathroom cabinet, had the wisdom to use horseradish as a rub for low back pain.
While it has a long tradition to represent "bitter" in Jewish Seder meals, horseradish was also suggested as an aphrodisiac in both Egypt and Greece. You've probably figured out that horseradish has nothing to do with either horses or radishes. Maybe it's a euphemism for radishes with a kick, which isn't a bad metaphor.

New Alzheimer’s treatment fully restores memory function from BEC Crew

New Alzheimer’s treatment fully restores memory function

Of the mice that received the treatment, 75 percent got their memory function back.

BEC CREW

18 MAR 2015

       Australian researchers have come up with a non-invasive ultrasound technology that clears the brain of neurotoxic amyloid plaques - structures that are responsible for memory loss and a decline in cognitive function in Alzheimer’s patients.
     If a person has Alzheimer’s disease, it’s usually the result of a build-up of two types of lesions - amyloid plaques, and neurofibrillary tangles. Amyloid plaques sit between the neurons and end up as dense clusters of beta-amyloid molecules, a sticky type of protein that clumps together and forms plaques.
Neurofibrillary tangles are found inside the neurons of the brain, and they’re caused by defective tau proteins that clump up into a thick, insoluble mass. This causes tiny filaments called microtubules to get all twisted, which disrupts the transportation of essential materials such as nutrients and organelles along them, just like when you twist up the vacuum cleaner tube.
As we don’t have any kind of vaccine or preventative measure for Alzheimer’s - a disease that affects 343,000 people in Australia, and 50 million worldwide - it’s been a race to figure out how best to treat it, starting with how to clear the build-up of defective beta-amyloid and tau proteins from a patient’s brain. Now a team from the Queensland Brain Institute (QBI) at the University of Queensland have come up with a pretty promising solution for removing the former.

CHAPTER FIVE To Hell With War! from War is a Racket by Major General Smedley Butler from ratical.org

CHAPTER FIVE
To Hell With War!
I am not a fool as to believe that war is a thing of the past. I know the people do not want war, but there is no use in saying we cannot be pushed into another war.
Looking back, Woodrow Wilson was re-elected president in 1916 on a platform that he had "kept us out of war" and on the implied promise that he would "keep us out of war." Yet, five months later he asked Congress to declare war on Germany.
In that five-month interval the people had not been asked whether they had changed their minds. The 4,000,000 young men who put on uniforms and marched or sailed away were not asked whether they wanted to go forth to suffer and die.
Then what caused our government to change its mind so suddenly?
Money.
An allied commission, it may be recalled, came over shortly before the war declaration and called on the President. The President summoned a group of advisers. The head of the commission spoke. Stripped of its diplomatic language, this is what he told the President and his group:

"There is no use kidding ourselves any longer. The cause of the allies is lost. We now owe you (American bankers, American munitions makers, American manufacturers, American speculators, American exporters) five or six billion dollars.
If we lose (and without the help of the United States we must lose) we, England, France and Italy, cannot pay back this money . . . and Germany won't.
So . . . "

Had secrecy been outlawed as far as war negotiations were concerned, and had the press been invited to be present at that conference, or had radio been available to broadcast the proceedings, America never would have entered the World War. But this conference, like all war discussions, was shrouded in utmost secrecy. When our boys were sent off to war they were told it was a "war to make the world safe for democracy" and a "war to end all wars."

I have recently posted a piece in which I tried to debunk a few popular myths about modern warfare. Judging by many comments which I received in response to this post, I have to say that the myths in question are still alive and well and that I clearly failed to convince many readers. What I propose to do today, is to look at what Russia is really doing in response to the growing threat from the West. But first, I have to set the context or, more accurately, re-set the context in which Russia is operating. Let’s begin by looking at the AngloZionist policies towards Russia.
The West’s actions:
First on this list is, obviously, the conquest by NATO of all of Eastern Europe. I speak of conquest because that is exactly what it is, but a conquest achieved according to the rules of 21st century warfare which I define as “80% informational, 15% economic and 5% military”. Yes, I know, the good folks of Eastern Europe were just dreaming of being subjugated by the US/NATO/EU/etc – but so what? Anyone who has read Sun Tzu will immediately recognize that this deep desire to be ‘incorporated’ into the AngloZionist “Borg” is nothing else but the result of a crushed self-identity, a deep-seated inferiority complex and, thus, a surrender which did not even have to be induced by military means. At the end of the day, it makes no difference what the locals thought they were achieving – they are now subjects of the Empire and their countries more or less irrelevant colonies in the fringe of the AngloZionist Empire. As always, the local comprador elite is now bubbling with pride at being, or so they think, accepted as equals by their new masters (think Poroshenko, Tusk or Grybauskaite) which gives them the courage to bark at Moscow from behind the NATO fence. Good for them.

There Has Been A Coup In Brazil — Paul Craig Roberts

There Has Been A Coup In Brazil
Paul Craig Roberts
In Brazil the country’s largest newspaper has published a transcript of a secret recording leaked to the newspaper. The words recorded are the plot by the rich Brazilian elite, involving both the US-corrupted Brazilian military and Supreme Court, to remove the democratically elected president of Brazil under false charges in order to stop the investigations of the corrupt elites who inhabit Brazil’s senate and bring to an end Brazil’s membership in BRICS. The Russian-Chinese attempt to organize an economic bloc independent of Washington has now lost 20% of its membership.
Democracy has been overthrown in Brazil as in Ukraine, Honduras—indeed, everywhere the dirty evil hand of Washington falls, including the US itself.
Glenn Greenwald reports on the extraordinary leak of the 75-minute recording of the conversations between Brazilian elites laying out the plot to frame the President of Brazil in order to protect themselves. https://theintercept.com/2016/05/23/new-political-earthquake-in-brazil-is-it-now-time-for-media-outlets-to-call-this-a-coup/
The Government of President Dilma Rousseff was dealing with the corrupt Brazilian elite in a legal, not a revolutionary, way. This was a strategic error, as neither the Brazilian elites nor their backers in Washington care a hoot about legality. For them power is the only effective force.
They used their power to remove Rousseff from the presidency, demonstrating to Brazilians that their votes are powerless to determine the government.

Purists with No Skin in the Game

Gary North - May 24, 2016

On May 19, I posted an article that I wrote in 1980. It was on how to defend private education against the state. You can read it here:

http://www.garynorth.com/public/15206.cfm Lew Rockwell ran it on May 23.
Early in the morning on May 23, I received a letter from a stranger. Its tone was typical of a purist. It seems that I have sold out to the state.
I never receive such letters from published authors or experts in the field. But I have been receiving them for about 50 years from strangers with no background.
My problem is this: I am in several fringe groups. My audience of purists is large.
Here is his message:

With all due respect, sir, isn't this tantamount to tacitly admitting that the government has an interest here? Why do we play the game on their terms?How about we assert that they have no business regulating education and tell them to stick their regulations where the sun doesn't shine?
What I especially don't like about your dream is that we are only right if the courts agree with us, or get tired of us. We are not right in principle, according to this strategy.
Would any self-respecting dominionist or presuppositionalist defend his faith using the infidels' weapons and tactics? I don't think so.

In my forthcoming (July 18) book, The Problem with Socialism, I describe how socialism is always and everywhere an economic poison regardless of the form of government.  Socialism is socialism.  As Frederic Bastiat explained in his classic, The Law, the imposition of one social “plan” or set of “plans” on all of the society – a defining characteristic of all varieties of socialism — will have the same effects whether it is instituted by democracy or by a dictatorship.  Obamacare is Obamacare regardless of whether it was imposed by democracy or by a dictator.
All of history has proven that the effects of socialism are always and everywhere mass impoverishment; the destruction of civil liberties; tyrannical government; a population dependent on the state for survival; and the enrichment of the ruling class.  Everyone is equally impoverished while the political elite live high on the hog, whether it is the Soviet Union, African socialism, Latin American socialism, or any other kind of socialism.
At best, socialism turns people into spoiled children constantly demanding more and more freebies at the expense of . . . . who knows?  At worst, it becomes a totalitarian nightmare where dissenters are mass murdered by the millions, as was the case with twentieth-century socialism all over the world.
The latest display of the effects of the malicious myth of “democratic” socialism is the economic implosion of oil-rich Venezuela.  When the proud socialist Hugo Chavez became president he nationalized industries; redistributed land and businesses to political cronies; imposed pervasive, government-imposed price controls; and made himself popular by giving away lots of free stuff – even houses.  He was a Latin American Bernie Sanders, in other words. The entire socialist world spoke of the new “socialist paradise” of Venezuela.

CHAPTER FOUR How To Smash This Racket! from War is a Racket by Major General Smedley Butler from ratical.org

CHAPTER FOUR
How To Smash This Racket!
WELL, it's a racket, all right.
A few profit -- and the many pay. But there is a way to stop it. You can't end it by disarmament conferences. You can't eliminate it by peace parleys at Geneva. Well-meaning but impractical groups can't wipe it out by resolutions. It can be smashed effectively only by taking the profit out of war.
The only way to smash this racket is to conscript capital and industry and labor before the nations manhood can be conscripted. One month before the Government can conscript the young men of the nation -- it must conscript capital and industry and labor. Let the officers and the directors and the high-powered executives of our armament factories and our munitions makers and our shipbuilders and our airplane builders and the manufacturers of all the other things that provide profit in war time as well as the bankers and the speculators, be conscripted -- to get $30 a month, the same wage as the lads in the trenches get.
Let the workers in these plants get the same wages -- all the workers, all presidents, all executives, all directors, all managers, all bankers -- yes, and all generals and all admirals and all officers and all politicians and all government office holders -- everyone in the nation be restricted to a total monthly income not to exceed that paid to the soldier in the trenches!
Let all these kings and tycoons and masters of business and all those workers in industry and all our senators and governors and majors pay half of their monthly $30 wage to their families and pay war risk insurance and buy Liberty Bonds.
Why shouldn't they?
They aren't running any risk of being killed or of having their bodies mangled or their minds shattered. They aren't sleeping in muddy trenches. They aren't hungry. The soldiers are!

On the morning of December 18, 2012 administrators at New York City Public School 79 (the Horan School) in East Harlem conducted an entirely unannounced “active shooter drill.” The event, which took place just four days after the high profile Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting in Newtown Connecticut, terrified the school’s 300 special needs adolescent and young adult students and the 100 teaching and counseling staff members. Ranging in age from 12 to 21, Horan’s largely Hispanic student body contends with an array of mental and emotional disabilities, including autism and cerebral palsy.
Coming less than one week after the Sandy Hook tragedy, the Horan School hoax drill has left many students and staff members severely traumatized and seeking accountability from administrators. With the exception of a pithy article in the New York Times[1] and a subsequent piece in the online opinion outlet Daily Kos,[2] the story has been exempted from the news cycle in the wake of the exhaustive yet often baffling coverage of the Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre. As New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg busied himself with calls for tightened gun control measures, no press conferences were held to either condemn the public school’s management or further scrutinize the rationales behind such drills.
“The lockdown drill began about 10 a.m. on Tuesday,” the Times reports,

Religion And Rationality 

The Supreme Court Ever son ruling of 1 947 established the principle that America would 
have no truck with spirits. There was no mention that the previous 150 years of American 
judicial history passed without any other court finding this well-hidden meaning in the 
Constitution. But even if we grant the ruling is sincere, an expression of the rational 
principle behind modern leadership, we would be justified in challenging Everson

By Dr. Mercola

Both men and women need high-quality sleep to function optimally, but women are far less likely to achieve this than men.
One poll by the National Sleep Foundation (NSF) revealed that two-thirds of women experience a sleep problem at least a few nights each week and up to half said they wake up feeling unrefreshed.¹
In a separate NSF poll, women were more likely than men to report experiencing insomnia at least a few times a week, and the average woman between the ages of 30 and 60 reported sleeping just six hours and 41 minutes on weeknights (even though closer to eight hours is optimal).²

THE COLLINS BLOODLINE: Bloodlines of the Illuminati by Fritz Springmeier from bibliotecapleyades.net

THE COLLINS BLOODLINE

The next family in our series of articles on the top 13 Illuminati families is the Collins family, The first two have been the Astor family and the Bundy family. The first two articles were fairly straightforward. Both the Astor and Bundy families have been written about by others, and I had more information on both families than I needed for my articles. In fact I left out worthwhile details in both articles in order to keep the articles to a comfortable length. In this Collins article, there will be some padding." In terms of research on the Collins family from a scale from 0 to 100, I’m about at 10. There are some hard connections that will be presented and some soft connections. Joan Collins is what I’d call a soft connection. She has associated with a long list of key Illuminati men and at least a few known Satanists, but this is only the barest of dues that she might have anything to do with the Illuminati herself. Let me give some of the hard connections first. The following is a description of a highly secret high level Satanic meeting. It comes via an ex-insider who is now a Christian. If any other ex-hierarchy person is reading this, perhaps this will trigger some memories for you. This experience dates to 1955. This is a meeting that is held twice yearly, and to which the Rothschilds and all the mother families attend. The meeting is inside in a big room, and the Grande Mother on the throne was a Collins. The Collins family has been kept out of the limelight because they have more occult power than the Rothschilds or the Rockefellers. To make money

Stopping the Cure: Why Cancer Research isn’t Focused On the True Cause of Cancer By Tony Isaacs

Stopping the Cure: Why Cancer Research isn’t Focused On the True Cause of Cancer

In a hurry? Click here to read the Article Summary...

Since the war on cancer was declared half a century ago, hundreds of billions of dollars have been poured into cancer research. However, despite annual pronouncements of cures and breakthroughs that are just around the corner, all that research has failed to keep the incidence of cancer from continuing to increase. Most of the small reductions in cancer deaths are due mostly to earlier detection which increases five year survival rates – the yardstick conventional medicine uses to determine success.
There is a very good explanation for why cancer research has failed so badly…
It has been directed away from the true main cause of most cancer – toxins. In early years, such misdirection could be partially explained by the lack of understanding about the nature and causes of cancer. In recent decades, however, cancer research has been directed away from toxins even as the evidence has mounted that toxins are indeed the primary cause of cancer. The reasons for misdirecting cancer research are two-fold:

1. Covering up the culpability of those who produce toxins and sell toxic products
2. Greed on the part of mainstream medicine and others who profit from cancer

As an example of the way cancer causes are covered up and the greed that drives the cancer industry, consider the marketing of “pink.” Many of the companies who are part of the hugely publicized Breast Cancer Awareness Movement (BCAM) sell pink-themed products which contain cancer causing toxins.

CHAPTER THREE Who Pays The Bills? from War is a Racket by Major General Smedley Butler from ratical.org

CHAPTER THREE
Who Pays The Bills?
Who provides the profits -- these nice little profits of 20, 100, 300, 1,500 and 1,800 per cent? We all pay them -- in taxation. We paid the bankers their profits when we bought Liberty Bonds at $100.00 and sold them back at $84 or $86 to the bankers. These bankers collected $100 plus. It was a simple manipulation. The bankers control the security marts. It was easy for them to depress the price of these bonds. Then all of us -- the people -- got frightened and sold the bonds at $84 or $86. The bankers bought them. Then these same bankers stimulated a boom and government bonds went to par -- and above. Then the bankers collected their profits.
But the soldier pays the biggest part of the bill.
If you don't believe this, visit the American cemeteries on the battlefields abroad. Or visit any of the veteran's hospitals in the United States. On a tour of the country, in the midst of which I am at the time of this writing, I have visited eighteen government hospitals for veterans. In them are a total of about 50,000 destroyed men -- men who were the pick of the nation eighteen years ago. The very able chief surgeon at the government hospital; at Milwaukee, where there are 3,800 of the living dead, told me that mortality among veterans is three times as great as among those who stayed at home.
Boys with a normal viewpoint were taken out of the fields and offices and factories and classrooms and put into the ranks. There they were remolded; they were made over; they were made to "about face"; to regard murder as the order of the day. They were put shoulder to shoulder and, through mass psychology, they were entirely changed. We used them for a couple of years and trained them to think nothing at all of killing or of being killed.

After continued Pentagon denials that US Special Forces in Syria equals “boots on the ground” in Syria, new video has just emerged of a US soldier standing next to what looks like an armored personnel carrier with Kurdish militia “YPG” spray-painted on it. It appears he is asked some kind of question and he turns to the camera with a menacing smirk and says:

Let me tell you something. I”m from the United States of America and I say kill ‘em all!

US invader announces his intention to kill all the #Syria|ns in the city of #Raqqa pic.twitter.com/bea48WCyIS

While US Special Forces troops may number far higher than the 300 admitted by the White House, they have no legal authority to operate inside of Syria. As the US government continues to maintain that the current Syrian government must be overthrown and that Syrian president Assad “must go,” there is no reason to expect that the “kill ‘em all” mission statement of this US Special Forces soldier will end once Raqqa is liberated from ISIS control. That US troops will participate in the removal of ISIS from Raqqa and then pack up and go home is extremely unlikely, as the original motivation for US action in Syria was the removal of Assad.
