Hahaha…

You are all screwed! Mwa ha ha!

The Federal Reserve needs to pump at least $6 trillion to $7 trillion more into the U.S. economy to have any meaningful impact on sluggish growth, former Bush economic adviser Marc Sumerlin told CNBC.

Of course Timmothy Gaitner agrees, although he’s arguing that only $1 trillion is needed. His goal is to pump up U.S. stocks, which he will do in the short run (now), in the long run however we know where this path leads. The Weimar Republic and Zimbabwe have walked that road before alongside other failures from history.

Nobelist Paul Krugman, a New York Times columnist, and Harvard's Martin Feldstein, the former chairman of President Reagan's Council of Economic Advisers, achieved an unnerving degree of consensus about the future during an economic forum in Washington. Their views were shared by a third economist, Jan Hatzius of Goldman Sachs, who said the only economic scenarios he could visualize were either "pretty bad" or "very bad."

The consensus? Another war could save the economy…

Hahahahahaha…

As I mentioned in another post the U.S. economy lost at least 95,000 jobs last month. (The real number is of course a lot higher.) But do you know what happened? The stock market went UP because "it will prompt the Federal Reserve to spur economic growth."

Hahaha…

I am dying today. This is so hilarious. Millions of people will die, and practically the entire globe will suffer greatly for decades to come, and all these idiots want to do is to make matters worse.

Please remember the names above. I have pointed out others before and the hit list should be pretty long by now. Maybe you don’t believe you’ll need it today, but I promise you when you’re roaming the countryside in the future scavenging for food and trying to find a job, you’ll be happy you have that list… someone to blame, someone to string up…

Keep your eyes peeled for a mass exodus of dolphins

We’re getting the hell out!

The Greatest Depression seems to be more and more obvious to even mainstream circles. Sadly the awakening is going too slow and comes too late. And even sadder is that the answer to this financial mega-tsunami from hell is still the same bullshit that got us into the mess in the first place.

Print more money, keep interest rates low, expand government, impose more regulations, and most importantly; lie, lie and LIE!

They are lying about the statistics, they are lying about how much money they have printed, they are lying about the economic fundaments, they are lying about foreclosures, they are lying about stock prices, almost every single part of the economy in almost every country out there is a lie, partly or fully.

One such example is how they continuously report about U.S. unemployment. They lie. Openly. Normally they adjust the figures afterwards when no-one is watching, and the revisions are upward, against common practice and consequently a part of the scam. And then I haven’t even mentioned how they calculate unemployment in America which, if you take a look at it, makes you think of a third world country with a dictator at the helm.

So it isn’t strange that when the statistics they show today (strangely enough on a Friday – what a surprise!) were bad, but not so horrific. Worse then expected, but we can all relax. Right?

Wrong. They are lying.

And you don’t need to know anything about economics or even math, just read the damn thing. Find it here.

Among other things media, useless as ever, point out that private sector jobs increased and since public sector jobs decreased so we’ll probably hear one or two right-winged nuts saying it was a good thing. Of course this is all a lie, a convenient open lie.

The Market Ticker has this down if you don’t have the stomach or time to read the entire report.

Only the fact that 1,047,000 people became discouraged during the last month i.e. they stopped looking for jobs and/or got off the unemployment data, is enough to get cockroaches looking into the possibility to move to another country.

And speaking of cockroaches, Alan Greenspan had a statement to make today. The former Federal Reserve Chairman said the U.S. fiscal deficit is “scary” and the federal government needs to cut spending on entitlements. This stupid little ugly monkey that is largely responsible for blowing up the housing bubble and is the man that put the printing machine on ‘extra speed’ should be shot, not be allowed to throw out useless pointers. This is one of the orchestrators of Greatest Depression and if this elderly roach doesn’t die from a mysterious heart disease you should put him on the top of your hit list.

I don’t think there are so many out there that actually comprehend what trouble we’re in. You all need to understand that it’s not just the tens of trillions of dollars ‘worth’ of Derivatives out there waiting for the crash, it’s not only the debt mountains climbing to heights never seen before, it’s not only the “let’s see who can print the most money” –game, it’s not only terrible housing sectors across the board, it’s not only banks covering up trillions of bad assets, it’s not only the regulations and the unemployment. IT’S ALL OF IT!!! And much, much more...

WHEN (not if) the first big country defaults or any other event knocks over the first domino, things are going to go to hell fairly quickly and from there it can only get worse. We are talking the Great Depression times twenty and, in all likelihood, for a much longer period of time than back then.

Please remember that the depression back then (soon to be named ‘The miniscule Depression’) gave birth to funny gentlemen like Hitler, Mussolini and Stalin; we got a World War and people suffered immensely for a couple of decades.

You think that was bad?

Just wait…

Finally a real winner

The Nobel Prize in general has become a joke, and the peace prize you can only win if you murder enough innocent people. Funny then that someone that seriously deserve it actually got one.

Mario Vargas Llosa, the Peruvian author, has won the 2010 Nobel Prize in literature. The Swedish Academy said it honored the 74-year-old author, considered one of the most acclaimed writers in the Spanish-speaking work, "for his cartography of structures of power and his trenchant images of the individual's resistance, revolt and defeat."

The author of over 30 books - and very nearly the president of Peru - Vargas Llosa is one of the preeminent public intellectuals of the post-war era and really one of the really, really good guys. Most regard him as a libertarian, I wouldn’t go so far, but he is damn close and as such a unique figure to win a Nobel.

His highly public criticism of the Castro regime is enough to make into my good book. And as an outspoken critic of authoritarian regimes on the right and the left, who else but Vargas Llosa would have called for the legalization of drugs while addressing the American Enterprise Institute's annual dinner a few years back?

This is a real winner. One of the good guys. Sadly the committee won’t withdraw past prizes like the one given to the Obamination last year, and this does not in any way make up for past offences, the Nobel Prize is still going down the crapper as far as I can tell, but it is at least a small token of goodness.

And to hear the cultural elite, that is completely dominated by the far left, go complete ape shit is a big, big bonus.

The very essence of government III

There are a lot of fun things in this world. I can hardly keep myself on my feet whenever I watch the news. War, rape, murder, robbery, and lots of other very amusing things are conveyed to us from bought and paid for journalists.

And the stupidity! Oh my, oh my.

I mean really, why would any extraterrestrial ever want to come here - other than to sit and watch the drama from above with their equivalent of popcorn? I am utterly convinced that if there really are Aliens out there with the technology to come here, they have put up a sign somewhere around Saturn that says “Don’t go here, but if you do don’t feed the animals”.

Human life should be more than having a pizza and beer while watching the latest reality show, but it isn’t.

On a small little blue dot in the corner of one out of billions of galaxies, mankind evolved. According to the theory of evolution the first life came into existence about 5 billion years ago as a result of billions of years of accidental, random atomic collisions. Scientists call this development of the first living organisms from nonliving matter abiogenesis, a sort of virgin-birth. Despite, or maybe because off, meteorites, volcanoes, and cosmic radiation life begun and flourished.

Throughout the ages several apocalypses have destroyed much of life on this planet, just to see it emerge again, victorious. One out of the species transformed into an upstanding primate capable of imagining fantastic things like tools, how to control fire and even contemplate its self-existence.

By evolutionary standards and taking a distant look at our lives, our existence is very short, insignificantly short. Not a single one of us, no scientist, no athlete, no politician, not a single one will have any impact whatsoever on the universe. Maybe some chaos-theorist can argue the comforting thought that we may cause an earthquake or tornado thousands of years from now if we fart in bed today, but mainly we are irrelevant, a nonsense species that happens to be able to grasp how tiny we really are.

But despite all that one needs to stand in awe for what people are capable of, if they put their mind to it, if they are able to grow and use the intellect that is so unique. We exist, we have essence and we can understand it. When I see a science fiction movie or read about paranormal things, I don’t see such things as unbelievable, I see them as a matter of time. Sooner or later we will figure out how to travel faster than light, invent anti-gravity and teleportation devices. I’m absolutely sure of it. That is if we allow ourselves to do it.

And that last sentence is really the point. “If we allow ourselves”.

Today I would argue an emphatically no to that. We have reached a point where we no longer need to evolve, and if we do, government can fix it for us.

Government – the ultimate fix-it machine can handle everything. Because we mere mortals cannot. Women cannot give birth without government approved doctors. Children would never learn anything if it wasn’t for government controlled schools with government approved curriculums. The elderly would die from malnourishment and neglect if government wasn’t there to fix it. And without departments checking our food, water and clothes we would all soon die from starvation, attract countless diseases and burn alive because we didn’t used fire proof clothing.

Mankind’s worse enemy, from the very start, has been herself. The very same intellect capable of inventing marvelous things is also capable of conjuring up our own destruction. And throughout the notion of ‘collective’ have been the main culprit. Not collective as in helping each other or being a part of a whole, but rather the notion of group-thinking, us against them, red against black, white against yellow, team against team, nation against nation. This is what’s really behind all the religious wars, the confiscation of one group’s property to give to another and so forth. And the ultimate representative of collectivism is government.

We have become the victims of our own success. We have come so far that we today have the means to feed, clothe and take care of every single person on this planet, but this accomplishment also means we are relaxing, not taking proper actions to evolve further and in doing nothing, or hardly nothing, we have also become followers of those in charge. It’s easier to put the head back and nibble on processed food than to take charge of ourselves and really question our surroundings. There is always someone else that can collect our garbage, make our food, and sew our coats. This laziness that historically speaking have worked in our favor, making us invent things to save time, is now in our way. The apathy is hanging over humankind like a damp quilt.

Give people free gifts and they accept pretty much anything. Government knows this and takes full advantage of it.

Under the disguise of democracy, seemingly a good force, the elitists are doing just this, tricking us with nice words. Want equality? The government can fix that; just put your name on the dotted line saying you accept higher taxes. Want freedom? Sure, you can have that, but first you need to give up your rights of privacy and recognize government’s absolute power over you.

And whenever we don’t listen they use words and pretend animosity to make us listen. The most common way of doing this is the usage of ‘war’. Not necessarily the traditional war wherein combatants fight over some elusive, often made-up, cause on the battlefield. Rather they use the word ‘war’ as a way of stating how serious something is and how important it is for all inhabitants to fight on the “correct side”. Anyone against is marked as traitor and unpatriotic, and often, somehow, children are also involved – if you’re against the war on drugs, you want children to be addicts, if you’re against the war on poverty you want children to starve to death.

The war against traffic-death, the war against unemployment, the war against inflation, the war against racism. Sound familiar?

Of course they also use other words to further make their case. Like in the US, a country fighting a war against supposed terrorism, but in doing so seemingly needed to throw out the constitution and impose the Patriot Act. How about that one? You’re either fighting against terrorism or you are unpatriotic, or so the words tell us. The reality is of course the complete opposite.

If it weren’t for the dark ages we would probably be colonization space right now, and if it weren’t for the 20th century, the era of collectivism, we would have taken great leaps towards the future. And if it weren’t for today’s statism, which is growing exponentially, we wouldn’t have starving people or wars. Maybe older time’s citizens could blame the high and mighty or a lack of knowledge for their obedient following, but can we really claim the same today? These days all the information necessary for us to make informed, rational and intelligent decision is all around us. Despite all the propaganda, you can find it.

In reality, if you really want someone to blame for your unemployment, famine or murdering hostilities, you only need to look in a mirror. You voted for them, you have cheered them on, and, more importantly, you haven’t done anything other than to sit back with another beer.

Our ancestors would revolt if taxes increased, if the king did something too stupid or if wars went on for too long. Today we sit back in our chair and when suits from the taxation agency stops by to take the house we ask them to bring another beer from the fridge. All the while wars are prolonged, the banking cartels continue to rob us blind, and government rule over us with a power far greater than that of any Pharaoh or Monarch.

Apathy is what we are, apathy what we have become, and behind the curtain government mock us and rubs its oily hands together in a pure supervillain manner.

Government is the solution, government can fix it, and government will take care of us. Those are the sentences that rule supreme today, and you let it happen.

The very essence of government II

War. Has there ever been a more fun thing to do? Humans have been waging wars since the first caveman clubbed his neighbor. Hundreds of millions have died on the battlefield; hundreds of millions more have died from famine, disease and poverty because of wars.

We humans like war. We love it.

And the only entity capable of starting wars, government, loves it even more. War can be used to conquer new land; it can be used to gain riches for the elite, and it can be used to overshadow any other problem. If the economy is bad, if unemployment is high, and if people want more freedom – what better way to circumvent such things than to have a vile enemy to fight?

War can also, today, be used to cover up financial problems. You see today we use GDP to measure wealth and if you build big bombs and create lots of guns and then go kill people, GDP goes up.

War is great.

And males, who are the main instigators of war, can gain a lot from building big ships that throws big missiles. A phallus shaped rocked flies into enemy territory, explodes, and kills other men... Aaah… orgasmic isn’t it?

Government however doesn’t only love war and use it to cover up their inapt ideas; they also lie and cover up what happens within war and what consequences war brings.

Read the news lately? How many articles about smart bombs, war tactics and how big ships and rockets are? And how many articles about suffering families, raped women and mutilated children? War is supposed to be great and bring honor and glory. War is not supposed to be misery and children losing their legs. And they do a very fine job handing us the correct message.

They do an even better job when it comes to bringing down the other guy. The adversary is a women hating thug, a religious fanatic that wants us all dead, a Neanderthal without morals.

Take the war in Afghanistan as an example.

This is a war that started on very shady premises. Apparently we had a corrupt regime that hated women, supported Bin Laden, and oppressed its people. Also they had a big drug operation going on. So of course they needed to be bombed.

9 years of war later the Talibans has been replaced with an even more corrupt regime that also hate women. Drug trade has never, in the entire history of the country, flourished like it does today. The former regime that actually didn’t support Alky Aida, are today close to allies with this terrorist group. The Talibans are stronger today, and have more supporters today than they did before the war started. And in the process tens of thousands have died and hundreds of thousands are homeless or on the run.

A success story? Not really.

The U.S. lead coalition has killed so many, done so much harm and committed so many war crimes that I can certainly relate to anyone wanting to strike back. I would. And if you were in these poor people’s bloody shoes, I believe you would think the same. 9/11 was a tragedy, but when does the “revenge” end? How many millions need to die so Americans can feel “safer”? Are a dozen or so suicide fanatics from Saudi Arabia performing a horrible terrorist attack equal to invading several countries (that had nothing to do with it) and going on a rampage murdering families, children and hundreds of thousands of innocent people?

I don’t deny that there are very bad people out there, some outright evil, and maybe you could even argue that invading two countries and killing all these people and committing all these atrocities is worth it. Maybe, just maybe it makes the world safer. I cannot see how, but maybe that’s a correct conclusion. But if that’s the case I would still not waver in my firm belief that people getting attacked have the right to strike back.

The Afghan people didn’t orchestrate any terrorist attack on U.S. soil; the Talibans didn’t attack any European country. So if we invade their country and murder so many, do you really think they will be grateful for it? Do you really think they won’t strike back?

There will be terrorist attacks coming our way, but not when government warns about it so right now you’re pretty safe. And can you really blame these “terrorists” if they do? If so, why? Picture yourself in their shoes and tell me that you wouldn’t be thinking about revenge or attacking back. I would, and I am certain you would feel the same.

We can be sure that government won’t let that feeling or revelation take hold. The propaganda machine will spin any terrorist attack into a virtual goldmine and use it as a way to stay in Afghanistan and possibly expand the war (Iran?). They attacked us, how dare they? Here we are murdering their families and killing their children and they have the audacity to attack us! What religious Neanderthal women hating drug running fanatic would do such a thing?

And okay, let’s say the U.S. and their actual allies have something to do in Afghanistan. There is no real reason for it and the whole thing is very bizarre, but let’s say there are good reasons for the killing and murdering. If so, what the hell are all those other countries doing there?

Take my birth nation Sweden as example. For the love of Beelzebub and all his glory, why does Sweden need to send troops to Afghanistan? We haven’t been at war for 200 years, but all of a sudden we need to send troops to support the US war machine.

They say it is to help the poor underdeveloped dark skinned Muslims living there. Apparently they are starving and they need protection from other poor underdeveloped dark skinned fanatic Neanderthal Muslims. Eee… okay…

Why would Afghans seeing foreign troops on their soil regard one group as friendly but the other one as the enemy? Would you make that distinction if it was your country?

But as we have already established: war is hilarious!

Why should only American’s and their allies have all the fun?

Even funnier it becomes when the troops Sweden have sent are undermanned, poorly equipped and need to rely on American support whenever they are in trouble. In essence more coffins coming our way. Fun, fun, fun!

The very essence of government

When it comes to the topic of government there are only three sorts of people. The ones that understand who make up a small minority, the ones that have decent suspicion against government but have no problem using government to fulfill some Napoleonic or Hitleresque dream, and finally the ones that understand nothing and make up a majority of people on this planet.

Do you know what entity is the only one capable to start and wage wars? It is the same entity that always, alone, has had this ability. No collection of merchants, no families, and no organisation has ever had this power. Only government. That alone should get you thinking.

However this isn’t about the big stuff. War, pestilence, famine and other fun things can all be traced back to government, but this isn’t about that.

Ever wanted government to save you? Maybe use government to impose some restriction? Or maybe you have a religious or moral idea you like others to follow?

If you don’t like smokers, you’re getting a fistful of anti-policies aren’t you? Remember how that got started?

The voodoo priesthood gathered “facts” that told us that smoking kills and after a bunch of information campaigns, several parent groups rallying and a large portion of righteous propaganda we started to impose taxation, age restrictions and so on.

So far, so good. Smoking isn’t good for you, so maybe this was a nice way to go.

But those groups that got started didn’t die out, in fact they grew and before we knew it more showed up. And when this happened the righteous elite picked up the scent. There was money to collect, votes to win, and a moral high ground to occupy. Suddenly politicians started to compete to be numbero uno anti-smoker. The few that started to warn that things were getting to get out of hand and that privacy shouldn’t be overstepped got labeled as horrible pro-cancer thugs that wanted to hurt chiiildreeeen. If you’re against smoking bans obviously a tobacco company has bought you, or you’re just outright evil.

Perhaps you could also excuse this step. Politian’s are opportunists, parents only want to look after their young, and tobacco can be bad for you…

Next they started to talk about banning smoking at bars. Only talking at first. Most people probably didn’t notice or thought that that cannot happen. But smoking is bad for you. And second hand smoking kills faster than any gun can. And did I mention the Children? I am not sure how children fit into the smoking-in-bars scenario but they did, somehow. No-smoking signs can today be found everywhere. If you happen to be a smoker you are really hunted today and you are regarded as that gooey stuff that sometimes get stuck under the shoe.

I probably don’t need to go on, but I will.

Because now I will tell you what comes next.

This is what comes next. Maybe you think they won’t pass such laws, but they will. And after those comes prison sentences, maybe even the death penalty. Wouldn’t surprise me. Look what they did to drugs over the years. Same thing, same procedure, same end result.

And take a look around you. Have you seen the rhetoric, taxation and groups gathering against fat people? Or how about all the hatred pouring over anorexic models? You conform, or they punish you. You become normal or you’ll be extra taxed.

See how it works?

How about taxation. Ever wondered why taxes never seem to go away once imposed? No matter what government you have, once a tax is in place it will never go away. They might lower it, increase it or change it, but they won’t abolish it. In my life, and having lived in four different countries (soon five) I have never even heard of any tax being eliminated. Have you? As said, they may change its name, lower it or increase it, but throwing it out completely? Never.

You need to understand that government is like a leech or a tick, it attaches itself to the body of freedom and feeds on the life-giving blood of that body and it won’t let go until you burn it or scrape it away with a very sharp knife.

If you hand politicians the power to do one thing, they will automatically do a second, a third, a fourth and so on. If you accept one law, thirty-two more will follow. Worse still they will adjust, change, fickle and fiddle with the original law until the law you once accepted isn’t there anymore. Don’t believe me? Check the history of any law; you’ll see that its evolution follows the exact same pattern as smoking.

That’s government. That’s how it works.

It isn’t hard to find anything dangerous or find people in need of assistance. There are a trillion and two ways to get hurt or killed. Face it, at any moment, no matter where you are, you can die. And who doesn’t need help? The poor, the old, the young, black people, immigrants, the fat, the thin, teenagers, women, North Koreans, people on welfare, drug addicts, the mentally ill, people with a broken heart, they all need help. They need support. They need laws to protect them. They need government.

This is how it works.

As long as the righteous feel that there is unfair dealings, inequality and out of the norm people roaming around in this world government will always be there to hand you the solution. And it’s a simple solution. Hand over your life, your money and your very soul and government will fix it. Government is a universal fix-it machine.

You haft to understand this; if you offer government your left hand, they will gnaw off the entire arm and then they will take the right arm. There really is a cross-road, and there really is a deal to make, but unlike the legend the demon will not give you something good in exchange for your soul, it will only hand you bad healthcare, horrible schools and more wars, and then, then it will devour your soul.

That’s government.

It doesn’t matter what virtuous idea is behind it, it doesn’t matter how morally superior you think you are, the end result, whenever you turn to government to fix it, will always, without exception, be much, much worse than if you just let the thing be.

You gotto love ’em for it

The Swedish Democrats, the populist political party that is newly elected into the Sweden Riksdag (parliament), apparently stormed out of Church today during the re-opening of the Riksdag.

It seems that the bishop conducting the service talked about everyone’s equal worth (like a Church would know anything about the subject) and how important it is to treat people the same. The bishop probably didn’t mention all the millions murdered by Christians because they happened to be different, but in any case the Swedish Democrats (SD) didn’t really like what they were hearing, so they bailed on the ceremony.

SD Party leader Jimmie Åkesson was even so upset that he couldn’t talk with media, something he never pass up the opportunity to do otherwise. Among other things the Bishop apparently mentioned anti-SD demonstrations in her speech so I guess the bishop were a bit too obvious in her attempts to sound like one of the righteous elitists.

I wasn’t there myself, haven’t listened to it, and I really couldn’t care less.

What I do find interesting however is that SD actually walked out on a political we-are-all-as-one-against-you-the-people meeting. Normally when something like this happens those in power know better than to let their emotions take over. They act in accordance to the golden rule of vote-maximation. They will smile to the cameras and say something nice about the speech and trying to make it sound like they are now ready to go to work.

But not SD.

And I like it.

They go into to church in traditional Swedish costumes and they left because they felt offended. Of course the elitists, journalists and our normal bunch of puppet masters will spin this, make it sound very, very horrible. How could they leave church? And they are the party that loves Swedish traditions and the Swedish church. And wasn’t it unprofessional?

Of course the entire gang of misfits that make out the soul-sucking elite of Sweden is cheering on this turn of events thinking that the Swedish Democrats have made their first big mistake.

Idiots.

This will be liked by many. It’s refreshing. It’s not the politically correct thing to do. They will gain supporters for this, not lose some of them.

No matter what I feel about these SD crazies or their xenophobic madness I also need to say: Bravo! Good for you. More politicians and more people in general should stand up for themselves and their political view.

More terrorist alarms please

Let me start by asking you to put yourself in terrorist shoes. You are now a terrorist (not really a stretch if you smoke, use internet, weigh too much or happen to be Muslim). So now try and think like a terrorist. You are out to scare people, hurt people and make them react to you and your policies. It is not about convincing anyone or gaining support, it’s about you killing and maiming for a cause and you want to stir up as much feelings as possible.

Okay?

Here’s the scenario; several countries issue an alarm that you may attack. People are told to stay away from crowded areas, people shouldn’t fly to Europe, and everyone are told that individuals with breast implants, turbans and beards are shady types that are very likely to “do something”. Also you can be pretty certain that each country’s´ security forces, police, park rangers and meter maids are extra careful and may stop playing hearts for a moment to actually do some work. Boats, trains, aircrafts and trucks are randomly searched while hospitals are stocking up blood and preparing for potential victims.

So from a terrorist perspective half the work is already done. People are extra scared, papers are filled with speculation and horrors stories, billions extra is spent on heighten security, and entire societies becomes suspicious against anything out of the norm. Women leaving the shower with a towel rapped around their head take one look in the mirror and starts screaming that a radical Muslim is starring back.

With all this going on why would you actually attack? Can you think of a single reason?

The only reason I can think of is that you could prove that any security measure is useless, that the police are powerless to stop any thought-out attack and in doing the terrorist thing it could, maybe, increase the uncertainty and feeling of fear.

However that would be a bit of a gamble.

Firstly with tighter checks and less donughts eating the police and military are slightly more inclined to actually catch you. Only a couple of percentage more, but still a slight increase in risk from your perspective.

Secondly with all the hype people are already scared to a point almost at the same level as if you had already blown up that school you had your eyes on. On a 10 grade scale, with 10 being your targeted scariness, so many people are already at 7 or 8, not at 5 as they normally are. It’s a less of jump from 7 or 8 then from 5 up to 10 (yes it is, use a calculator if you don’t believe me) hence any explosion would mean a less of a jump in scariness hence less of a shock. And shocking societies and people is really one of your main goals.

Thirdly, one of your other main goals – to put a wedge between people and create animosity – is also already reached. Muslims, radical lefties and radical righties, hillbillies, neighbors, people with two mailboxes, chemistry teachers, youngsters buying knives, grandmas reading about Hitler online, and carnival workers are already being watched and monitored. Religious and cultural differences are discussed on the news, and there’s an upswing in people voting for populist political parties.

So why would you attack?

Isn’t it better to wait for the frightened people to calm down a bit, wait for the police to go back to doing nothing, and wait for the moment when targeted societies least expect it?

Why decrease the chance of success during a moment in time when the effect of what you do is less of a jump on the shocking-meter?

Ever wondered why that 2m tall Osama that supposedly lives in small caves with a broken liver hardly have done a single thing since 9/11? (Assuming of course that he had anything with to do with that in the first place – which has never been officially proven) Do you really think our security forces are that good at what they do that they have managed to stop terrorism that sufficiently? If you think so, why haven’t they caught a guy who is reasonably easy to spot no matter where he goes?

So after this little mind game did you reach the same conclusion as I did?

With no statistics to back my claim up and with nothing else than being able to think like a terrorist (which probably, again, puts me on any number of radars) I am utterly convinced that if you want to travel, visit the Eiffel Tower or use the subway you should do so, with less of a risk from terrorists, during one of these heighten security alerts. The more governments warn, the more you should do the opposite. This, coincidently, is good advice about everything government does.

I am not saying that terrorists won’t attack, only that I find it highly unlikely.

With that said you should also realize that even the cave dwelling Bin Laden need to stick his head out sometime. Sending videotapes to media may be scary for a while, but sooner or later he and his cronies also need to do something. And there are a lot of crazies out there; your own government is proof of that. So of course more terrorism is expected somewhere, somehow.

For me the few people dying each year from various attacks don’t merit terrorism to even reach my top twenty list. Far more dies from congenital diseases, malnutrition, wars, and so forth. Most of us actually live in the worst place you can think of. A place that is one of the main mutilators and killer of man – our own homes. And the main murderer of mankind, our real nemesis, the thing that is more likely to kill you than any disease or accident, is the very entity we rely on for protection from terrorists. And THAT is hilariously funny.

So no, I don’t travel less by buss and I don’t avoid crowded areas when government tells me to, on the contrary, I seek them out. The more newspapers tell me how unsafe I am, the safer I feel.

Sadly with all you morons out there frighten, government will take the opportunity to hand out two complementary notes. On one it say’s “give me your money and I’ll protect you”, on the other it say’s “give away your freedom or you’ll die”. These two notes are used to impose restrictions, controls, surveillance, taxation and, in the end, a totalitarian society.

Those ‘notes’ should scare you more than all terrorists put together.

A terrorist from Sweden and other tales

Never mind the Vikings that for all intents and purposes should, to a certain degree, be regarded as terrorists.

But if we move forward in time to the break-up of the Kalmar Union (1397-1523) that had united the Nordic countries but was gradually opposed by Swedish terrorists taking action against the Danish monarchy, and finally broken off by the terrorist would-be king Gustav Vasa. A king that at the same time broke with the Roman Catholic Church and established the Reformation. A heretic and terrorist created modern Sweden. How about that one?

Personally I think this was a mistake. A unified Norway (and Iceland), Denmark, Sweden and Finland with all its might would have been a very powerful entity in Europe and the world. And take away the animosity that historically speaking has been very fierce between Danes and Swedes, and the countries (country) would have been much stronger not fighting each other and instead been able to focus armies and diplomacy elsewhere. I am very convinced that if a successful merger had taken place history and the European landscape would look very different. Frankly hardly anyone in the world would have been able to compete, at least not in the 15th and 16th century.

But I digress, so let’s get back to the terrorist father of Sweden.

Gustav Vasa was a great monarch. Probably the best and brightest in Swedish history, and his policies and laws were at the forefront laying the groundwork for a future grandiose country and transforming a very poor underdeveloped nation into a European Powerhouse.

However he did start out as a terrorist. A murderess scoundrel that killed thousands of people in rebellions and wars and assassinated Danish officers and broke out from a lawful and hundred years plus old entity. And he had no problem with turning against old allies slaughtering anyone that opposed him.

After his father got executed together with other terrorists for rebelling against the lawful sovereign, Gustav got himself involved in several revolts until he managed to rally an army in the province of Dalarna and gaining troops from Leipzig he then, after some years, repelled the legal king of Denmark and eventually, through wars and shrewd practices, became king of the nation of Sweden.

For most historians today (except maybe Danish ones) he is regarded as a liberator of sort, a freedom fighter. However he should rather be regarded as a terrorist and instigator of rebellions. By today’s standards he would probably be sitting in a secret CIA terrorist jail, alongside the USA’s founding fathers, getting tortured. Any contemporary politician and the politically correct would today have regarded him as a horrible nutcase, a fascist, and a terrorist. Isn’t it fun how things change?

This little excursion into the past isn’t the only example of how some individuals or groups in one passage of time can be labeled in one way, and gain recognition in a completely other way if times change.

History is written by the victorious.

But this isn’t really the point I am trying to make. Many others have made this observation before, probably a lot better then I just did. What I am trying to get at is that it’s not necessarily a bad thing doing the dance of revolution.

Those in power will never relinquish it without name-calling and certain elements both in-house and abroad will make an effort to curve any “terrorist” from gaining power and try stop such individuals/groups from having any say in matters of the state.

It’s not really about you (or Gustav) being or not being a terrorist, that’s secondary. You see those in power doesn’t care about your policies, your politics or who’s right and wrong, such archaic descriptions have nothing to do with it. The reason that they fear so called terrorists is that they oppose those in power. Nothing less, nothing more. Even religion or cultural differences are secondary.

Those sitting on power want to keep it, preferably expand and strengthen it. Those sitting on power are always the righteous legal leaders that you should obey. Anyone opposing those sitting on power are terrorists, extremists, anarchists or crazies. This has actually never changed.

Remember a fellow named Jesus? He too could be regarded as an instigator and since so many Jews at the time actually were terrorists against their Roman rulers, it’s not that hard to understand why Imperial Rome feared that Jesus had the charisma to lead a guerrilla uprising against them. Today we would probably have sided with Rome, at least most of you out there would. And with words thrown at you from an effective propaganda machine many of you would probably have cheered Rome on as it killed this terrorist Jew.

I am not religious and I’m frankly not convinced that the historical figure Jesus even existed, but what we do know is that many Jews (and people from other religions and cultures) were slaughtered for being what we today would label ‘terrorists’. And the Romans were in no means alone. Pretty much every leadership and country in the history of mankind have executed, tortured, or expelled potentially dangerous individuals. Sometimes with good reason, but mostly on a whim or in order to keep their power.

This hasn’t changed. The same thing goes on today.

Granted many democratic (and mainly western) countries do have an actual reason to argue their case. There are many communists, anarchists, fascists and religious fanatics out there that don’t want any form of freedom or democracy and have no problem murdering millions to get their way. And I cannot really sidestep deeply religious and nutty Muslims either; no matter how “racist” it makes me. So maybe there’s a slim difference here, but the real reason for those in charge to chase down and oppose terrorism hasn’t changed. It’s still about power.

You see they aren’t only chasing down fanatics or extremists - pretty much anyone that gets in the crosshair of the righteous elite is a target.

They start out small. People who like drugs, smokers, and fat people have been targeted almost with the same ferocity as real terrorists. And don’t even get me started on Internet users. In America people that believe in the constitution is today “potential terrorists”. And in pretty much every western country anyone wearing a turban or burqa is a potential suicide bomber.

Read that word again; “Potential”.

As said, they start out small. With suspicions.

Soon, very soon, they will go to the next step. Following in the footsteps of rulers before anyone that is not conformed, listens to ‘reason’ and those that have a deep seated suspicious view towards government will be targeted. Some say this has already happened.

And when you think about it, are you really safe?

Would your government take a view opposing yours and silence you, and those who would speak for you, and refuse to countenance any debate at all that would let you have a say? Would your government use lies and deceit to override anything you might want to do or say? Would your government use the law against you, demonise and punish you, encourage others to treat you as subhuman, for no other reason than they just don't like you?

Of course they would, and do.

The fact is that most of us live in societies were every single one is regarded guilty until proven innocent.

Ordinary folks, you and me, your neighbor and everyone you know are already treated as criminals. Not only in regards to internet or smoking. We have already seen and heard horror stories on how innocent people are locked up, flown to distant lands getting tortured for no other reason than that they can, maybe, possibly, know a bit about someone or something.

Spanish Inquisition… anyone? Leg-Iron has a magnificent piece on the subject. Go read.

This will escalate, and the good thing about it is that real “terrorists” will emerge as a consequence of these policies. I am not talking about religious fanatics living in caves or right-wing trailer park attendees; I am talking about ordinary citizens that simply have had enough.

As usual those in power will bunch all that oppose them together. Guilty by association. And Guilty because the government says so.

It’s all about power. Nothing more, nothing less.

Eugenics

I am not really a fan of the Georgia GuideStones theorem that pops up now and again in tin-foil hat circles. However no matter what one believes in that regard it is hard not to wonder what the end game really is when it comes to policies like the Manmade Global Warming swindle.

There are tons of very smart people coming up with schemes how to sell this idea that, as far as I can tell, has no basis whatsoever in reality, to the general populace. Some of these scientists, researchers and bureaucrats must know that what they are selling is bogus. Maybe even a majority of them. So why do it?

The reason is, in all likelihood, Power.

There are many ways of gaining, maintaining and expanding power. The most commonly used selling point throughout history has been the usage of FEAR. If people are afraid of something it is much easier to sell a bigger, better, stronger and more intrusive government. And with bigger, better, stronger and more intrusive government comes power for those that either sits in government or for them that knows best how to take advantage of government.

If FEAR is combined with a clearly defined antagonist that is sold as the real instigator of said fear and if the alternative is marketed with pink shimmering skies, pretty much everyone will listen and almost all of those will conform and become controllable little sheople.

Today we can see this trickery when it comes to internet where, apparently, every no-good horrible Muslimterroristpedophile is openly chatting up our daughters while spreading hatred and communicating on what train station to blow up.

Terrorist do exist, Muslims too, and pedophiles that according to the grapevine started to exist at the same time as computers and webcams, is a reality. And the fact of the matter is that internet can be used for evil purposes. Just as a fork can be used to kill so can internet be used to plan the killing. You can find out what fork is best for the crime, probably even get hints and tips from other would-be fork-murderers. So when it comes to internet they do make a slim, petite, very minuscule point.

Manmade Global Warming however have no such defined adversary, except, of course, mankind.

We know that The Sun (not the paper) is responsible for almost all weather on our planet. That single percentage or two that hasn’t to do with the Sun can be related to cosmic rays, our magnetic poles or the oceans. There are also other minor factors like the occasional asteroid, volcanoes and such. But for some reason mankind have such an imperative role in the environment that the end for the entire planet is near. Driving cars, factories, hairspray, refrigerators and our pets have for some unknown reason started a chain reaction that will end all life.

Already when reading such claims any thinking adult should start being very skeptical towards the Church of Climatology and its followers.

But it doesn’t stop with ill-defined and very vague claims; they also use pure fiction and outright lies to sell us this story.

For example the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) have been caught fiddling numbers, hiding facts, bullying opponents and outright lying in the name of science. Anyone reading the Climategate emails or checking what these tricksters use as “scientific material” (the ‘material’ that’s not SECRET that is) need to stand in awe.

Among other things we now know that one single tree in Siberia is responsible for the famous hockey-stick graph. We know that only data supporting their pre-determined view is used, all the rest of the data is ignored or hidden away. We know that they actively persecute and thrash anyone arguing against them. We know that both earlier and later proven faulty data is used and they do so intentionally.

This is facts. This we know.

And when they have an “independent review” of this scam, what happens?

Well when the UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon asked the world's science academies to review the work of IPCC. He did this by stating:

"Let me be clear - the threat posed by climate change is real"

And if that clear message wasn’t enough he continued:

"I have seen no credible evidence that challenges the main conclusions of [the IPCC's 2007] report."

And with this mission statement the InterAcademy Council (IAC) reviewed IPCC.

Oh, but wait. If the mission of IAC wasn’t clear enough, wait ‘till you know how “independent” they are. This is like sending out wolfs to investigate why the fox got into the henhouse. Well, in all fairness to wolfs, they probably would be more independent.

Taking a wee look at the IAC do you know who their partner organizations are? You guessed it; over half that can be seen on their webpage are UN programs. The rest is the World Bank and other international academy groups. And if that isn’t enough how about the fact that the same people that appoint the IPCC folks are the very same people that appoints the IAC folks.

And their website is filled with things about climate change. These are hardliner Climate Church goers. They pray at the altar of the Polar Bear God and they are to check their pals at UN?

These are sort of facts and knowledge one should have before watching these flicks I have brought for you to see. Even if you don’t buy the Eugenics angle (I don’t) you cannot ignore that the end result, the end game, may very well be the exact same thing implied in these clips and argued by conspiracists.

Happy viewing







Fun isn't it?

Random coincidences

Nothing to see here folks, only a random event. Move along.

There are a lot of things that can happen that surely have no planning behind them and are definitely totally random and circumstantial. That bad news in regards to finance and markets almost always is mentioned on Fridays happens by chance. That bad news in regards to finance and markets that for some reason isn’t conveyed on Fridays always is followed by two or three ‘good news’ hours afterwards with an immediate bump upwards on the stock exchange that otherwise would be going down is pure coincident.

That the Swedish Security Service (Säpo) has raised the terror alert in Sweden to "elevated" due to an increased threat level just weeks before the government budget proposal is put to the vote is just a fluke.

That FBI Director Robert S. Mueller III told a congressional hearing that a spike in recent terrorism cases is direct evidence of the evolving threat just as the Tea Party is gaining momentum and people are starting to silently prepare for tomorrows financial collapse have no association to each other whatsoever.

That the Church of Climatology produce and spread a video depicting children getting blown up for not confirming to the Green God’s decrees - but then, suddenly, withdraw the film issuing apologies while the horrendous flick keep spreading is only an accident. No-one that watched the film will have a slight remembrance of it, somewhere deep down, when the state impose their next set of fascist laws meant to “save the planet”. Nope. Not one.

That the International Council of Shopping Centers has come out with a prediction that U.S. retailers’ sales will climb 3 percent to 3.5 percent this holiday season only a few months before Thanksgiving and x-mas is surely unplanned. That trucking in the US is in full collapse, the dollar is plunging and that the current calendar year has a deficit "run rate" of $1.667 trillion, essentially identical to last year, means nothing to these folks. Souring debt-mountains, US unemployment over 20% and a global who-can-devalue-their-currency-the-most competition is secondary. So it’s surely a coincident that shopping center owners and retailers predict an upswing.

That Sweden's last remaining copper coin, The 50 öre coin, took its final breath recently and is only remembered in a historical context with pundits giving funny anecdotes while hardly anyone mentions that this a inflationary fiasco and a real bloody sign how we are getting screwed by our masters, is only a stroke of bad luck. Don’t you think?

Other reoccurring examples of totally unrelated events:

Laws, hinders, terrorist chases and taxation in regards to internet are in exponential increase while the economic fundaments are crashing before our eyes.

Increase in anti-immigration discussions and more blaming of Romani’s, Jews, and Muslims while the economic fundaments are crashing before our eyes.

More and more stories about greedy businessmen and capitalism’s “failures” on the news while the economic fundaments are crashing before our eyes.

That we daily are reminded on how Oduma, Gorgon Brownie and other soul sucking entities “saved us” from a depression while the economic fundaments are crashing before our eyes.

I could go on about such random unrelated events, but maybe the funniest, and probably most coincidental thing ever, is that people out in the world seem to really believe in such a chaos filled world were nothing is related to anything else.

I have mentioned it before, but it is necessary to repeat – you are all idiots.

This little movie has nothing to do with the text above.

Something is bound to happen. Soon.

For those of us staying tuned to the online chatter and reading blogs and keeping up to date with the alternative press, there’s a build-up going on. I have seen this happening over the last couple of years and it is starting to reach a boiling point.

There are so many angry people out there. So many disillusioned citizens have lost their jobs while rich banksters, oligarchs and the political elite gorge themselves on a buffet of tax money.

Lately even normally laid back and conservative people have started to talk about stringing politicians up, talking about rebellions and that it is time for people to arm themselves. And these folks are not tin-foil hats, they are not radical lefties or anarchist right-wingers, they are ordinary citizens that have had enough.

An entire generation of youngsters and free thinkers that had a bastion of hope, a respirator and outlet for information and democracy – is now getting it taken away from them. I am of course taking about internet. Nothing has scarred the powers that be more, ever, in our entire history, as internet has. Suddenly nothing could be controlled and even the soccer mum next door could be an informant or journalist. The carefully built elitist structure that couldn’t be rocked by anything was/is in swing because of internet. As a consequence they will do and say ANYTHING to keep it from running free. The mock trial against PirateBay, the outburst of autocracy from political bodies, the European Union imposing Stasi-like control-grids and the US transforming into a fascist stupidity is only the beginning. They will STOP AT NOTHING in order to control, and survey and tax internet.

Think about all this for a moment and then consider whether I am right about us just being in the beginning of this financial and political dilemma. If true, where does that leave us?

And they know this. Of course. The elitists have sniffed this out and are already starting the “blame-game”. You know it was the rich that did it. And the Muslims. Jews too. The Romani’s are taking our jobs. Immigrants in general are also at fault. Greed got us here. The evil Mr. Market is out to get us.

…

Another thing that seems to be more and more obvious are reoccurring market manipulations. Previously our puppet masters and rich cabalas have worked in the shadows and could only affect some part of the market and this only temporarily. However with more and more regulations their power has increased. Even more important are the so called “stimulus” packages which in reality only is money printing going into the extreme. This has freed trillions of ‘extra cash’ that can be used to trick markets and pundits alike into gigantic scams. The Market Ticker seems to have this down…

Somewhere down the line this stops ‘working’ and there can be a several reasons for this. The most unlikely scenario is that they stop printing money and raise interest rates across the board.

Here Keynesians actually have it right. If we did the right thing now, markets would crash and burn. If interest rates went up to 5-6-7 percent (probably a lot higher in several countries) and they started to roll back money instead of throwing them out there, and if they at the same time cut government spending down to manageable levels - if this happened we would immediately enter a depression.

Wouldn’t this be bad? Sure. Horrific really. But it is the right thing to do, let the market correct itself, let people get back to rebuilding the economy and after two three years we would start to recover and after another year we would be back on track.

This will never happen though. Politicians are scared senseless at the moment. People are already rioting and issuing general strikes, and threats towards the ruling elite are reaching pre-revolution levels. Imagine if they did the right thing and things went from really bad to truly horrific. Would they be re-elected? Not a chance. More likely they’d find themselves dangling from lampposts.

So in the eyes of our sovereign leaders this option is off the table.

Instead they will do the wrong thing. Which is to say the exact same thing they did to get us into this mess and the exact same thing they have done to worsen the situation time and again. They will print more money, they will offer more government solutions, and they will borrow and spend while they try to calm investors down with slim cuts and useless adjustments to budget or policy.

They do this with the hopeful notion that things might readjust, maybe people start spending again, maybe some new invention will kick-start the economy, maybe Aliens will save us. But what they are really doing is buying time. Getting an extra month or an extra year so they can buy a getaway ticket. Getting more time so they can implement more internet restrictions, and impose more laws and build up a police state for protection. Of course many of them are pure idiots and as no clue what is going on, probably a majority of them, but such morons are followers and do whatever the owner of the ass their nose is stuck in says.

This means more months of debt accumulation. More regulations. More government. More fascism.

This means that problems will grow. Escalating from an already horrific height.

This means that when this thing blows it will not be only horrific, it will be far, far worse. You need to start looking into the book of revelations for adjectives to describe it. We are talking full-on bloody apocalyptical we-are-all-fucked scenes followed by famine, war and pestilence. I would go so far to say that nothing before in human history comes even close to what await us. Tens of millions will starve to death, trade wars will break out, the European Union will break up into smaller pieces, and it is very likely that civil wars are on the agenda in many countries, including China and the US.

Please also remember that you have voted for this, you wanted it, you have rooted for it, and many of you wants even more of it. Makes the whole armageddon experience more enjoyable.

…

As some of you know I try to keep an eye on alternative sources to see in what direction the economy is really going. The Baltic Dry cargo index, the number of shipping manifests, the number of distractions (wars, terror alerts, computer viruses etc.) that is thrown at us from above and similar thingies are often the best indicators.

But if you really want to know how the economy is going you should look at the sex- and weapons industries. When weapons goes up and sex goes down, then the shit is really about to hit the fan. Can you guess how these industries have performed during the latest couple of years? What the trends are? Yeah… that’s right…

…

I could go on, but my feeling is that we are closing in on it. I cannot put a time-stamp on it, mainly because I am still pissed that the whole thing didn’t stick to my predictions I made a decade ago saying that the big crash would have happened earlier this year.

All I can say is that it will happen. If it is a month from now (which we can hope) or if it is a couple of years down the line (brrrr…) is anyone’s guess. I hardly see this scam rolling more than 1,5-2 years though, and I think it would be hilariously funny if we officially entered the Greatest Depression in 2012. Wouldn’t you say so?

I do think they can still buy a little more time and with the media and almost all of the pundits bought and paid for, they can also continue to lie to us. So if nothing ‘scary’ happens, like a new big war or a nuclear explosion in London, we’ll probably roll along for a while yet.

Please just remember those oh so funny four words that I have been saying and will continue to repeat over and over and over again…

… I told you so.

A thought provoking clip

I really enjoyed this little vid. It is psychological, philosophical and it offers an alternative explanation to why the world continues to get flushed again, and again. I don’t necessarily agree and I believe that this is only a part explanation of what one should be aware of, but it is nevertheless worthy a watch. Get some of those synapses blinking.

What really frightens me

I come in peace

Honestly very few things get my fight or flight reaction going. I’ve seen too much and experienced so much crap in the game of life. Also I am a deeply rational and very cynical individual and all this in combination have made me into a person who psychologists probably would diagnose to have deep emotional problems.

Now, this isn’t as bad as it sounds, and I believe that psychology is crap for the most part anyway. Actually it is a good ability to have because it means I don’t get fooled by any charlatan with a bag of tricks and I can easily discard any sort of “reptiles walk among us” idiocy. I believe in science and I believe in a rational thought process. I also think this ‘ability’ can come in handy if I ever would be subjected to torture.

Death doesn’t scare me, consequently hardly anything worries me. I don’t go around thinking about things I cannot affect such as a sudden reversal of the magnetic poles or the potentiality of an asteroid hitting my car.

However there are things that do attract my attention and disturb me a little bit.

For example I get a shill in my rectum when hearing certain leaders of men talk about the scam of Manmade Global Warming. It is not really the actual scam that makes my sphincter pucker; no it is that there are actually people out there believing in it. And there are a lot of those asylum run-away’s out there, they are probably a vast majority.

I learned today that people exist in Sweden who has a special poop-bag next to the toilet. They also have a net, about the same sort of net you catch butterflies with. Apparently certain families scoop up the poop, puts it in the poop-bag, wipes themselves and then puts the paper in the wastebasket. (Makes you wonder why they have toilet in the first place.) They do this in order to Save the environment! This scares me more than any horror movie. An apocalyptic nuke-scenario cannot hold a candle to scooping-up-poop-families as far as I am concerned.

That animals’ now have court-appointed lawyers in Switzerland is also frightening. Get you to wonder what a hawk’s defense will sound like. “My client is innocent. That dove was clearly eaten by another animal”.

And then we have the newly appointed United Nations space ambassador. Mazlan Othman, a Malaysian astrophysicist who is set to be tasked with co-ordinating humanity’s response if and when extraterrestrials make contact. This appointment in itself is a clear sign that if ever space creatures wander the Earth's landscape in search of intelligent life; it is such a scarce resource that any Alien will certainly leave or blow up the planet to make an intergalactic highway. But do you know what kind of freaks me out? Look at her name. Mazlan Othman… M. Othman… Mothman!

Then we have the super virus Stuxnet. Apparently it is a powerful computer code attacking industrial facilities around the world, but mainly in Iran (they say in passing), that probably was created by experts working for a country or a well-funded private group, according to an analysis by a leading computer security company. It seems that no-one knows where it came from. It’s a complete unknown thing for everyone and experts are called out - paid for by the tax payer - from every dark corner to have meetings over this mystery and mumble that they don’t know.

Now this is frightening stuff.

It is a real brainteaser isn’t it? Who could it be? I am certainly gnawing on my hands in suspense over this one.

200 000 years of evolution and this level of intellect is what we have to show for it? Kind of scary if you ask me.

Like Batman who managed to avoid being frozen to death in a giant ice cream cone thanks to his "bat-thermal underwear" I do have an out. I laugh. Sometimes hysterically and not very convincing, but laughter is nevertheless a way to cope with the madness.

Personally I can’t wait to be abducted. This planet has gone absolutely nuts. So if there are any extraterrestrials out there, please do whatever you want with my anus and brain. Just take me the hell away from this fucked up rock. And if you blow it up and force me to watch I will promise to try to hide that smirk.

Beam me up Mrs Othman

Newt! I work for the UN, you are safe now...

I guess they are running out of ways to spend our money. At least that’s the first thing that came to my mind when reading this.

A space ambassador could be appointed by the United Nations to act as the first point of contact for aliens trying to communicate with Earth. Mazlan Othman, a Malaysian astrophysicist, is set to be tasked with co-ordinating humanity’s response if and when extraterrestrials make contact. Aliens who landed on earth and asked: “Take me to your leader” would be directed to Mrs Othman.

This would be sort of funny if it wasn’t for the fact that they are serious about it.

But okay, let’s assume for a moment that this post is relevant and necessary. It could happen you know, the chance that a intelligent Alien stops by or send us a message is about one in a billion, but still, it’s not totally unthinkable either.

However, if so is really an astrophysicist the best choice? Wouldn’t an anthropologist or, if we are to believe what most ‘experts’ seem to think is the most likely Aliens we’ll encounter, an entomologist a much better choice? Or why not the trickiest, most scheming no-good lying cheating bastard of politics? It seems to me that a thieving bureaucrat or a devious diplomat would be better suited.

I mean we are talking about extraterrestrials. What good is an astrophysicist if we are to talk with them, make deals, plead for our lives or trade gold for hyper drives? Sure she might be able to point towards their home in the stars or have a basic understanding of some of their math or gadgets, but that’s pretty much it.

Are we seriously going to put the faith of this planet and everyone on it in the hands of an astrophysicist working for the UN? We can just as well give up and volunteer for slavery and/or deliberately jump up on the dinner table to be nibble on.

Even scarier it becomes when you read:

“When we do, we should have in place a coordinated response that takes into account all the sensitivities related to the subject. The UN is a ready-made mechanism for such coordination.”

Really? So a totally corrupt organization that is practically run by dictators and soul-sucking diplomats, a organization hell-bent on increasing protectionism and imposing socialist guidelines to third world countries already have a ready-made mechanism in case ET stops by?

If there was any doubt before I can now say with the outmost confidence that we are truly, utterly, completely and royally fucked.

A wee update

I felt like it was time to do something about the layout. And maybe I can fool those revisiting FBI people (and other ‘security’ fuck-ups) that this is a completely different blog?

I believe it is better for the eye now, although not exactly like I want it so expect other alternations the coming days.

Spain – too little, too late

The government of Spain has approved an austerity budget, which includes a 7.7 percent spending cuts, 15 percent cuts in departmental spending; 5 percent reduction in government workers salaries and a tax hike on the wealthy.

This will, according to superbly scheming bureaucrats, save a couple of 100s of billions and hopefully reduces the country's budget deficit from 11.1 percent of GDP in 2009, to 9.3 percent this year, and down to 6 percent in 2011.

Let’s ignore for a moment that the EU has a targeted a maximum deficit of 3 percent for its member nations by 2013 (actually it should never exceed 3%). Let’s also ignore that such calculation by (any) government has never been correct before. Let’s also, for a moment, ignore the real estate and housing bubble and 20+ percent unemployment.

Let’s only look at this suggestion and think for a moment what will happen.

Firstly you gotto wonder why they aren’t cutting down to zero or rather run a surplus, which would be appropriate and necessary. Of course this is a political choice, not an economic one. It may be a good political compromise from the elitist’s perspective. Already facing general strikes and a country in turmoil doing too much at this moment may result in real upheaval. Also it can be a good thing to keep some of those institutions and organizations the government depends on for power in a fairly good mood. However, it is hard not to contemplate as to what comes next WHEN (not ‘if’) this plan fails.

Secondly what will this do to GDP and as a consequence the recovery? At least from a Keynesian perspective this is bad since everything in the Keynesian mind revolves around GDP and keeping spending up.

GDP is a scam, totally and fully. I have covered this scam before and you can go back and read, but let’s just confirm that in lowering government spending in addition to enforcing the proposed tax hikes that will only lead to tax evasion and “rich” people moving themselves or their money elsewhere, can and will lower GDP.

Reeling from the collapse of a debt-driven construction boom, Spain entered recession in the second quarter of 2008 and posted six consecutive quarters of negative growth, counted in GDP. Although the economy grew by 0.1 percent during the first quarter of 2010, Spain’s growth prospects are poor, and with this budget it will get poorer.

The combination of negative GDP growth, rising unemployment, and a high deficit has raised concerns about the sustainability of Spain’s finances. Indeed, two international ratings agencies, Fitch and Standard & Poor’s, have recently lowered Spain’s long-term sovereign credit rating, citing the risk of a prolonged period of below-par economic growth and persistently high fiscal deficits.

This budget will in all likelihood, at least in the short term, increase this risk and so probably lower the Spanish credit rating further.

Actually I would, in this case, almost agree with Keynesians. This small and very inefficient budget proposal will lower GDP, increase the risk of getting even worse credit rating and will have very little, if any, positive impact on stability and the economy. In fact the socialist government may very well face a bloodbath curtsey of their leftie voters that will feel abandoned, betrayed and fooled. And this for measures that are wrong, have no positive impact and are really too little and too late.

Either do, or don’t. That’s what should be the motto. Instead it’s a political compromise of the worst kind.

I have before warned about the lurking housing collapse of Spain. “Economists”, useless as ever, seem to argue that the worst is over in Spain and that they need to ride out the storm. This is so wrong it is laughable.

They have borrowed and spent hundreds of billions of Euros on building projects that will NEVER be paid off. And the Spanish government is liable for most of it. Either directly or indirectly. And very little of this gargantuan scam have reached daylight. Mark my words, when this sucker blows it will blow the entire country away. And after that I see no reason for why it wouldn’t expand and become the next spark to light the fire of our humorous financial Armageddon.

The enemy class of Spain has, just as the puppet masters of every country out there has, started a spiral of doom they cannot get out of and the ONLY thing they are trying to do is to paper over the problem with small, petite, useless solutions that either will do things worse or only buy more time for them to get away.

There are a lot of problems out there. Looking at numbers coming from the US its hard to imagine them being able to keep the scam going for much longer, but they are the world’s biggest economy and have a built up a reputation over the years that will take time to cave in. Japan is in such a mess it is a miracle they are still floating. Chinas bubbles, the wars, inflation running amok everywhere and all the stimulus have just run out of steam...

Will Spain be the tipping point to get the tsunami rolling over the world? Maybe, but it’s really a crapshoot. Anyone of these fuck-ups can falter and die at any moment. All I am waiting for is that it will happen. And it will probably be sooner rather than later.

Final thoughts on the Swedish election

Last Sunday Sweden held its general election and in the preliminary result the centre-right parties in the Alliance won the largest support, 49.3 per cent, compared to 43.7 per cent for the centre-left Red-Green coalition. The anti-immigration party the Sweden Democrats was able to gain 5.7 per cent, and will thus take seats in the Parliament and will probably hold the swing vote.

This means that the Alliance will have to try to form a minority government.

However, there is a small but yet a chance that the absent ballots, the last postal and expat votes, could give the Alliance an absolute majority. But as it look right now it seems that the final count will show that only a couple of hundred of votes are missing - in total (haha…) - for the current right-center government to get majority in the Swedish Riksdag (parliament). Instead we’ll have a minority rule with the government going back and forth to secure votes.

I find this hilariously funny, especially since I, and many I had convinced, supported the libertarian alternative. With 713+ votes going to the Libertarian Party of Sweden you could argue that this was the decisive factor.

Of course this isn’t exactly so because many thousands of votes also went to the Pirate Party. Votes that otherwise may have landed in support of the sitting government. And so you cannot really know how things would have turned out if the government had exchanged their fascist Justice Minister or ignored the pleas and bribes from the entertainment industry in order to roll out the Orwellian surveillance nightmare. But it is hard to see how they could lose votes if they had done so, and if I’m right they lost majority because of me and others like me that may have considered voting for them if they’d made such changes.

Of course there are now calls for changing the electoral process and how votes are counted. No big surprise there, the righteous elitists need to secure their power and make sure that people voting wrong not have the final say. Also we got an anti-immigration party in the parliament and this will not do. The elitists may argue they don’t like these “racists” because of their views, but this is only partly true. The truth is that our puppet masters don’t like losing seats, money and prestige and that’s what this is really about. So again we can read about how ‘wrong’ it is that a small racist party can gain a swing vote - sort of implying that something about counting votes process needs to change.

"There is nothing wrong with your television. Do not attempt to adjust the picture"

713+ (not final count) votes going to the newly formed Libertarian party may not sound like much, but bear in mind that there was no real effort, the party has no money whatsoever and a vast majority of the Swedish populace doesn’t even know the existence of such a party. Also most of the supposed libertarians in Sweden do vote for the existing parties in parliament. Some do this because the alternative (communists and climatologists) is worse and others do it because they have nothing against selling their souls for a seat or a pat on the back.

With this in mind I think the libertarians did a good job and there’s only up from here.

And although I do detest the sitting (and continuously governing) Swedish government with their control-grids, their growing fascist views and horrible stupidities I also agree with the soul-selling spineless ‘libertarian’ morons that voted for them; the alternative is worse.

At least Sweden managed to avoid getting the ugliest Prime Mentalist (the Social Democratic leader) ever seen in the Western World, and that’s something to take comfort in when the next wave of economic Armageddon roles in over us in the near future.
