Smack Down Time  (31)
Glad you finally see a conspiracy, JK. Just thought I would point out a few more. The government has been sending SWAT teams onto raw milk farms, jailing the farmers, destroying their product and equipment and putting them out of business for several years now - not because they commit a crime against the public, but because they create a life and health-supporting product. This is on behalf of agribusiness, ...

Hedges does it again in this article. Brilliant work. Thanks for posting it.

About Jim C. Ignore him. Responding to him gives him unwanted credibility.

When Americans Understood the Declaration of Independence  (23)
Well done!

Americans have been swept up in a mass delusion and one carefully orchestrated for them by the powers that be - that slaughtering innocents abroad and bombing other nations to rubble is somehow in the interest of liberty and democracy, rather than mere plunder and piracy. This is complete madness. Many of our soldiers have been trying to tell the people of this country what their governmen...

Blondie's View  (5)
I will not argue with the point that living within one's means is important, but austerity is about much more than an effort by the giants to fix things. If anything, it is more about their effort to destroy the living standard of the shrimps, which is something they desire as part of their thrust toward greater power and less democracy, than any effort to solve the financial crisis. In the US, the giants wast...

War Drums for Syria  (24)
Destroying other nations with bombs as a supposedly "humanitarian" way of solving their problems is pure madness. Our government knows this. These policies have other motives. Americans do not read serious foreign policy news, they take their information from the mainstream press and then think they have all the answers. We are like little children being manipulated by "mom and dad" in Washington, where vast...

Rethinking America’s Supreme Judicial Dictatorship  (10)
Mark H. - I truly think you miss the point. The current federal system is no longer protecting us from tyranny or protecting freedoms. Many Americans have failed to notice, because the growing body of corrupt law and policy has yet to affect them personally.

It is ludicrous to assert that DiLorenzo's ideas would end in child slavery. Did you not read the article? For one thing, he is not writing...

MIT Research Team Predicts Global Economic Collapse and Precipitous Population Decline  (4)
While all of this may be true, I do not understand why such discussions never include details about how the ruling elite is destroying small farming around the world (intentionally) and depriving farmers in the US (and probably elsewhere) of water - and not of necessity, but as part of some political game. For example, in California they are depriving Central Valley farmers of irrigation water, ostensibly in or...

TedBits: The Economic and Financial NO SPIN Zone  (5)
I think this is a good article. My comment is a reaction not only to this writer, but to many on the right. I think this needs to be said again and again until the right wakes up to the lie they have embraced about the people of this nation. And that lie is the belief that Americans want socialism.

The Department of Homeland Security and the Department of Defense consume 39% of our annual budget. Wh...

A Fistful of Euros  (20)
There is compelling evidence that the European elite plays a big role in planning and profiting from the wars that the US carries out. American taxpayers foot the bill and American sons and daughters pay with their health and lives for these wars which are driven by official lies. The truth of so much that is going on now is carefully hidden from a gullible American public. It looks to me that America, which ...

Demolishing Due Process  (20)
Jim C - Americans like you look to government as children do to parents. Such naivete is very dangerous and is bringing death to America. Look on the FBI website, by the way. Even the FBI itself states that there is no credible evidence to link bin Laden to 9/11. That event was never part of his wanted poster. I am not saying he was a good man or that he was not dangerous, but killing people without due p...

Suspended Civilization  (22)
This map to the left is America after the ruling elite arethrough with us. You must google Agenda 21 Map to see a better image. This is their plan for us. This is our country after the world's elite are through bringing ruin to us and to other lands. I suspect Kunstler is already familiar with this. Try to imagine he might know something you do not yet know. There are few cities remaining on this map. Mo...

Suspended Civilization  (22)
Guys, what is going on is part of a long-term plan. Read about Agenda 21 or see my comment above - the new rules against human right to grow food are part of this multi-national (in fact, UN) agenda. H.W. Bush first signed us on for this. Clinton and Dubya aggressively moved to bring all of this to fruition. Obama is carrying the torch forward. Your partisan politics are a big part of the problem, not part ...

Suspended Civilization  (22)
well put, jk. check out this article below. this is why the Bank of Scotland received bailout money (and other foreign institutions). They are planning their world government, a reign of global terror. This new New Zealand law already has a counterpart in the US. I fear they are planning to implement next year. I heard in a lecture on the topic that the deadline for implementation is next year. countries ...

Doug Casey on "Occupy Wall Street"  (2)
Great interview and article. I have to say this, though: The ideological roots of the neocon movement lie in Trotskyism. The hysteria about a democratic president being the socialist who is going to destroy America is nothing less than ludicrous. Dubya started all of this (well, it began much earlier, but he lay the ground for what is going on today at a frenzied pace). How do so many conservatives overlook...

Critical State  (55)
Bravo, J. K.! Well done.

Jim C., you are not following the OWC movement very closely. Purveyors of violence have largely been the police. There will in any protest movement be people on the fringe who advocate violence or who engage in looting, but the occupy movement has made a very strong, concerted effort to stand for peaceful civil disobedience. To say anything else is a lie. The harm caused by...

Is Obama America’s First Elected Dictator  (25)
Fact is that Bush was the first dictator president, or at least he tried to be. Obama merely continues this tradtition. How did so many conservatives miss the dismantling of our constitution by this republican administration? Or, more to the point, why is it acceptable to so many conservatives if it is done by republicans? If the dems are playing the same ugly game, which they are, you guys scream foul, marx...

Declare Victory Bring Them Home!  (4)
Well done. I would like to know how the US military and the US economy came to be devoted to fulfilling the aspiratons of the Western elite? Despite public protestations to the contrary, European leadership - and Canadian and Australian, etc. - generally stands fully behind our war profiteering. They probably play an important role in the planning of such schemes. Much of the profit goes to multi-national co...

Occupy Everything  (18)
In the first place, the obsession of some with the so-called leftist nature of American politics is an indication o ignorance of US history and US policy. America is at core a fascist country. Bush did more to destroy this country than any president on record. Blaming the left for our ills is foolish. What we have in America is socialism for corporations, for the very rich. All this talk about "entitlement...

The System Is Coming Unglued  (6)
just one thought. they are knocking themselves out in Washington to destroy small business on behalf of creating corporate monopolies. they have been doing this for years. our so-called "free trade" policies are destroying livelihoods in the US and around the globe. perhaps this needs to be addressed first - or at least simultaneously with cuts. people are not just lazy - they are being deprived of opportun...

The extraordinary lack of coverage of Ron Paul  (18)
A group of America's leading statisticians researched the 2004 presidential election and found it to be fraudulent. The press never reported on this story and it remains unknown to most Americans. Here is a link about a prominent Chicago journalist, Robert Koehler, whose articles on the topic were rejected by the Chicago Tribune: http://www.rense.com/general65/susb.htm

The press would not touch this s...

Surviving the Chaos: Pickles and Guns  (5)
I have been having the same experience. This year, my babysitter of ten years took thousands of dollars of jewelry from me and some sterling, as well as other items. Recently, my camera has been stolen from my home. Only a few people - such as my housekeeper or my new babysitter - could be responsible, but I can't pin it down. I am beginning to feel that I do not want anyone but very close friends or family ...

Not Hard to Figure Out
You know, I have often thought of the Bush administration's aggressive efforts to persuade the American public to invest their retirement funds completely in the stock market - to entrust their future to the markets - in the years before the 2008 collapse. Was this a set up? I have often wondered. People never learn.

America Becoming a Third World Country  (9)
No, Platinoid - the fascists within the US government planned all of this. It is fascism we are headed for, not socialism. That is a misunderstanding of what is happening here. The social programs will be abolished soon enough. All wealth will be held by a few people only and we will be even more deeply brought into the role of global military hegemon on behalf of the Western elite. This is not socialism - ...

Lying is the new Normal  (11)
Mr. Kunstler is right. I live in Silicon Valley, in California. The Valley is populated with very well-educated people from all over the US and from around the world. Generally speaking, I know almost no one here who understands what is going on in this country or the magnitude of lying and manipulation that is daily emanating from our news media. If you don't see it, you are not paying attention. It has ...
