“Man or other Animals” Drug Laws–a Jewish Conspiracy?

As I’ve reported here for the past two years, in A.D. 2005 I was sued by the Texas Attorney General’s office for participating in the manufacture and distribution and sale of a “controlled substance”.  That “controlled substance” was colloidal silver–an inexpensive antibiotic that consists of distilled water and silver ions.  The AG’s office wanted to fine me (and each three other living defendants, two corporations and one trust)  $25,000 per day.  That’s a $9 million fine per year for each defendant.

I read the relevant Texas and US drug laws and was shocked to discover 26 separate instances of “man or other animals” drug laws (some Texas, some federal) that were premised on the presumption that all men are “animals”.  I knew instantly that this presumption was a violation of the Christian faith in that Genesis 1:26-28 declares that on the 6th day God created man in His image and gave man dominion over the animals.  Thus, the government cannot define me or any other man made in God’s image as an “animal” without violating my right to freedom of religion.

Happy Days or Black Tuesday?

A headline in Thursday’s New York Times reported, “U.S. Economy Began to Grow Again in 3rd Quarter–The United States has emerged from the longest economic contraction since World War II.”

Ohh, so it’s “emerged, has it?  Well, isn’t that just great?   I guess “Happy Days” are here again.

A Broken Teeter-Totter?

In a modern economy, the relationship between the purchasing power of the fiat currency and economic strength generally resembles a teeter-totter:  When one goes up, the other goes down.

For example, in times of economic boom, we have more employment, more products, more consumption, more demand and more currency in circulation.  Result?  Price inflation.  As the economy rises in strength, prices rise while the correlative purchasing power of the dollar tends to fall.  Teeter-totter.

The Dollar’s Demise

The U.S. dollar has been the world’s reserve currency since World War II.
In March, China (and then Russia) openly attacked the greenback, calling for the dollar to be replaced as the world’s reserve currency. This call by China is particularly disturbing since China holds more U.S. debt than any other country—about $1.3 trillion—and the further the dollar drops, the less the value of the U.S. debt owed to China.  If the dollar were completely replaced as the world’s reserve currency, the dollar would be quickly and dramatically devalued and the purchasing power of China’s $1.3 trillion in T-bills would be diminished by hundreds of billions of “dollars”.

Thus, by calling for replacement of the dollar as world reserve currency, China shows that it is willing to sacrifice much of the value of its hoard of US T-bills for the sake of overthrowing the U.S. dollar.  This is not the simple economics of greed.  Such enormous self-sacrifice is normally evidence of serious, economic warfare.

Buying Gold Kills the FED & NWO.

Benjamin Fulford writes in both Japanese and English on political and economic issues. He’s an intelligent man.  Still, it’s sometimes hard to tell if Mr. Fulford has the gift of prophecy or is simply a “loose cannon”.   Mr. Fulford has recently written a couple of commentaries that predict the Federal Reserve could cease to exist within the next six months.

The Fed might die?! Why . . . why that’s economic blasphemy! That’s . . . that’s about as crazy as . . . as predicting in the 1980s that the mighty “evil empire” of the Soviet Union would soon disintegrate.  Surely, the almighty Federal Reserve is “too big to fail”.  Besides, if the Fed failed, the entire US economy would tank, too, right?

Foreclosures Without Mortgages

Proverbs 13:22 warns that “ . . . the wealth of the sinner is laid up for the just.” I won’t say this verse describes what’s actually happening with regard to modern mortgage law, but there’s enough of a resemblance to make me wonder.

An Economy of Addiction

When it comes to addictive drugs, most people would be surprised to learn that nicotine (common tobacco) is more quickly addictive than heroin, morphine or crack.  But there’s another drug that even more addictive than nicotine:  free money.

Oooo, we love that free money, don’t we?  More than heroin, coke, crack, tobacco, alcohol, or even ice cream—free money is truly America’s “drug of choice”.

What is “Capital”?

Most people assume that “capital” is more or less synonymous with “money”. That assumption is false.

Michael Moore (the controversial producer-director of the movies Fahrenheit 911 and Sicko) recently achieved a little more notoriety by claiming that “capitalism” is inherently “evil”. About the same time an email was banging around the internet concerning Bill Clinton’s 1997 Executive Order # 13037 in which he created the Commission to Study Capital Budgeting and referred to “human resources” as a form of “capital”. Some people were concerned that the government regards all of us as “human resources” (“capital”) rather than men and women.

All of this raised an intriguing question: What, exactly, is “capital”?

Come September

In A.D. 1961, Rock Hudson, Gina Lollobrigida, and Sandra Dee starred in a romantic comedy entitled “Come September”.  Some of you are old enough to remember that film.  Those who are younger or didn’t see the film can pretty much guess the plot, the conclusion, etc.:   After a remarkable September filled with amusing confrontations and romantic interludes, Rock married Gina and Sandra Dee found her true love and everyone lived happily (if comically) ever after.

This article is also entitled “Come September,” but there’s nothing romantic or comedic about its content.  This article is about a couple of curious statistical anomalies that don’t happen every September, but happen most Septembers:  1) the price gold goes up; 2) the purchasing power of the dollar goes down; and 3) the stock market goes down.
