To summarize the context of this rant, a conspiracy that controls our money has used their authority to borrow enough of it to buy our economy and monopolize it for themselves. The means of our production, our resources, and our land, are all bought and sold on Wall Street for artificially inflated profits made possible from a government sanctioned counterfeiting scam.
Because the conspiracy includes the politicians that occupy our government, the unethical deficit is reconciled with inflation and increasing public debt. The public is being abandoned.
A social security system is the solution.
Our current economic system is a privatized system that benefits some and abandons others, based on their relationships to, and their investments in, the corporate security system. Their private system is profitable, for them, because the public system, SSI, has been abandoned, by them. They are the establishment.
The Establishment is against the Public
To divert your attention from that understanding, the bipartisan incumbents have conspired to outlaw abortion rights, and abandon democracy, to protect and defend their scam.
Think back a little. The majority leader nixed our current AG from being considered for a seat on the high court. Schumer could have done the same thing McConnell did, to stop Trump’s nominees, but he didn’t. Not one senator forced a filibuster, which allowed the judges to be confirmed and promptly overturn abortion rights.
The negligence of the democrats in reciprocating with the filibuster against the Trump Judges, has resulted in the public flocking to the democrats to restore their legal access to health services and to prevent our future from becoming some kind of authoritarian nightmare.
The democrats win by losing. The strategy to motivate voters to participate in the political process, by losing, is a great example of the lesser of two evils strategy. The lesser evil benefits from the greater evil becoming more evil so the lesser evil can gain more followers. The strategy makes the duopoly more evil, collectively, and our policies more unfair, to the public.
Dystopian Quagmire
The Midterm elections are an establishment horse race, as usual. Because of the primary process the unsponsored are defeated before race day. The primaries filter out the “extreme” right and left wing candidates to constrain election victories to the center, with establishment candidates, exclusively.
The problem with that is the right wing extremists have been winning for a long time and the left wingers don’t win at all.
The center establishment candidates are called left wingers and described by the right as radical leftists. Which is absurd.
Which proves the extreme right wing filter never worked in the first place and we are now about to swing so far to the right we may never be coming back. This generation will rubber stamp the audit for the crimes of the last century, as closed, and look forward, pretending justice was done, when it wasn’t. It was all legal, by their interpretation of the law.
The establishment has abandoned the left’s only hope, Bernie. He’s sitting nearly alone out in left field somewhere, under appreciated. He has the truth on his side, but the establishment is not really interested in that. Money is their motivator.
Money matters most.
So now we’ll be debating abortion again, like we did back when America was great. Back to the days where pride was reserved for racists and everybody else had a fearful respect for their law and order, whether we liked it or not. We all knew who was in charge back then, supposedly, and they want it that way again.
Most states are heavily infected now, with the bribery and the mercenary mentalities. The trickle-down conspiracy has soldiers across the country that are against democracy. They are ready to enforce the extraction scam against the public, for a living, and to prevent a representative government, from now on, in order to maintain their minority rule.
It’s the most important election In history, they say, to save our democracy. I’d say democratic failure is a foregone conclusion and I loathe to open the voter’s guide at all. What a waste of time. Either way, the public loses. It’s just a matter of how much and how fast the inequality and injustice crushes civility. The establishment will be forced then to militarize our domestic political solutions to maintain order.
Voting has become a simple choice of teams now, It’s like a sports game. You are either for team A or team B. The name of the player and their position is nearly incidental as long as they’re on the team, they will vote the same, for the team. So why read the guide?
I’ll vote for team A. Do not vote for Republicans, ever.
The Democrats can be corrupted by the scam but the Republicans embrace the scam religiously. Their Ideology is supremacy, not democracy. Whether they admit it or not, republican ideology, like slavery, is not compatible with an honest democracy. Undemocratic ideology must be resisted. The republicans must be resisted.
Vote for democrats and hold them accountable.
We have a political system where two adversarial institutions compete for control of our government. That’s not a democracy. That’s another scam. It might have been great a few centuries ago, for some, but not any more. The plan looks good on paper, but it needs to be interpreted correctly and enforced.
The divisions between the parties are extreme and irreconcilable now. By contrast, the extraction scam is bipartisan. It is the most sacred belief, shared by both sides of our divided establishment.
The system is broken for the public. It’s the system that needs to change, according to our technological ability. Changing the players on the teams is not good enough. That’s not change. That’s the same old counterfeiting/bribery scam that got us into this mess. The system itself needs to change.
Our elections have become a popularity contest where we choose who gets the job to protect and defend the scam. The scam will not change despite the vote. The revolving door shuffles the names and the faces in and out of office but the scam remains the same.
The scam goes by many names and includes many tactics. They call it capitalism, market economics, free trade, trickle down, supply side, and so on. But, by any other name, the practice is the same.
Our economy is an anti-democratic scam, from the past, posing as a political solution for the future. The establishment uses the scam to extract money from the public, to profit themselves.
Justice is blind, and dumb, intentionally.
Considering we just passed 31 trillion dollars in debt, as a country, in less than thirty years, it’s easy to do the math to understand the magnitude of the rip-off. The result of the scam is the government spends over a trillion dollars every year, of money that we don’t have. The result is an economy that creates billionaires with taxpayer money, with public debt, which has intentionally increased economic inequality and corrupted our government, beyond the point of cartoonish villainy.
It would be funny if it wasn’t so dangerous.
The correction requires an apportionment act to produce a more representative government that would tax big money properly. That’s the only way to save our democratic potential from the tyranny lurking over our government, and our futures.
The establishment says that the government doesn’t produce jobs, but of course it does. They create the most. The public provides the demand that produces the jobs. We are the customer. The government could regulate our economy to be more ethical and equitable, but they don’t. So the result of our policies is a chasm between the obesely rich and the desperately poor. It’s a political choice that needs to be corrected with a giant clawback.
Fix the problem with a reverse extraction.
Let’s do the math. A trillion dollars equals one thousand billionaires. We have fifty states in the nation. That makes our deficit equivalent to 20 billionaires a year for every state in the nation, just from public debt.
One billionaire equals one thousand millionaires. So our annual deficit of a trillion dollars could pay for twenty-thousand millionaires a year, for every state in the nation. If that money was divided equitably there would be hyperinflation, which would be more ethical than what we do now, creating millionaires.
Our public deficit creates the wealth that’s makes investors rich and leaves everybody else behind. That wealth should be taxed to provide the public services that everybody needs, rather than pretending trickle down market economics ever worked, for the public. It never has. That’s why we need a more equitable distribution of wealth, moving forward.
But I digress, further into my digression.
So what did we get as the taxpaying public? What did we get for our money? We got a bunch of billionaires who got rich from public debt. That’s what we got. That was the result of the public policy by those that crafted our economy. That was the result of our “democracy”. We got massive inequality from massive public debt.
That’s a political robbery disguised as public policy. And still, some are serious about their philosophy of meritocracy. It’s not so much an ideology as it is a preservation of supremacy. And that’s why we have democracy with majority rule, to prevent supremacy in order to preserve ethical justice.
The political result of our monetary policy has been the massive unethical extraction of wealth from the taxpaying public.
Our public debt has nurtured a wealthy investor class and the establishment still believes that’s normal and preferable. They rationalize inflation as normal. It’s the current concern this election, along with losing our democracy. The professionals just say it’s complicated, never mentioning that’s where investor profits come from. Those profits are not coming from growth, they were leveraged from the recession we’re about to have now.
The Monster
The monster is large enough now to protect and defend the authority of our economic overlords, against us. The only thing that can threaten the iron grip of the monster now, is democracy.
And the monster hates democracy.
The monster is poised to abort the public and abandon them in some dark alley like an unwanted child. The burden of supporting an under-employed generation of unnecessary freeloaders has compelled the establishment to abandon the public, apparently, and toss their costly social security safety-nets out the window, in favor of tax breaks for themselves.
The investors profit with credit, on publicly traded free-market monopolies. That seems fair, to them, they say. It was their money in the first place, or so they believe, incorrectly.
Those who work will be required to compete for access to work the automation owned by the establishment. For most people, it will cost just a little more than they can afford, to live comfortably. The unsubsidized Main Street workers will struggle to compete. The establishment will profit from their toil.
The race to the bottom is a generational theft. It’s a first come first served system where the owners of the automation squeeze the workers for more and more until the gray areas of institutional slavery become too fuzzy to see, for the public.
Justice is blinded.
So the establishment is shutting down our democracy. They are against democracy. Both parties will blame each other and they’ll both be right. They’re all to blame. The republicans will be glad and the democrats will comply, as is the custom.
Who needs a democracy when the establishment can print all the money that they want? for themselves, to ensure their financial supremacy over the public, by bribing their political opposition.
The establishment supplements their economic supremacy with inflation tactics and counterfeiting. Most of them are against big government, but their entire scam is based on the full faith and credit of the tax-paying public. They don’t see a contradiction, or a conflict of interest in profiting from the massive inequality that they have created.
Economic Representation
Our monetary policy of creating new money ensures that the morbidly obese bonuses for corporate executives continue to flow. The overly-excessive profits will be under-taxed and reinvested for “growth”. The counterfeited profits for the institutional investors will continue to flow, over-leveraged, as usual. The balance sheets will grow, with fraud. It’s all a profit making success, for some.
Automation is to blame, they say.
Instead of having five guys stand around for eight hours, we only need one now, because of the automation. Rather than make the work day shorter for everybody by dividing the time, like a democratically regulated economy would do, the company is compelled to maximize their profits, and 80% of their workforce is now looking for your job. The other 20% are overworked and underpaid and competing with each other to access income.
Meanwhile, the lizards lie lazily about and slither from one scam to the next, rationalizing their gains and slurping their extractions. All the while the working poor, after so much effort, wonder why they still wallow in their own crapulence.
That’s how the system works.
Our society has become increasingly dysfunctional and it’s getting worse. That’s what the public got for their money. Law enforcement can’t even ping a transaction IP address for a clue to solve a financial crime. The politicians can’t seem to legislate against their own conflicts of interest. That’s just another job Americans don’t want to do, apparently, because corruption is more profitable.
Let’s fire up an app and an IPO. Maybe we can all profit by contracting others to do our jobs. We’ll hire them to make America great again, for us, for the low, so we can make max profit, off of them.
That’s the American way.
President Joe has supposedly hired a bunch of IRS agents recently. I expect they will help rubber-stamp the ongoing corruption or assist in some way to make students pay their debts. Whatever their efforts will be, you know it will largely fail, as intended.
You can’t be cynical enough.
Dark money now is something that’s accepted by the entirety of the establishment. The resistance is token at best. Where did all that money come from? Who knows? Who cares? We’re all just a couple clicks away from being rich now. What an amazing technology. Let’s make our own currency, they say. Let’s make a bunch of them and buy them with our extra money. I don’t see a problem with that, says the establishment.
Let’s buy some Crypto.
It’s reported that there’s 350 candidates on the ballots that are described as election deniers. None of which wants to upgrade our electoral systems. You can be sure of that. That’s because of 83% of the 10 Billion dollars of midterm campaign contributions came from dark money. Click click. Here ya go! We’ve increased the money supply. Give yourself a raise and donate to our political puppets, is what happened.
Hang Mike Pence
Turns out Trump’s insurrection conspiracy apparently included a plan to Hang Mike Pence. Somebody decided to erect a gallows at the capital just in case that possibility arose. That’s one of the most important plot points of this crime, still being ignored by the professionals. Who erected the gallows? Who did that?
Clearly, the establishment doesn’t want to know or they would. And of course they know. So they’re lying by omission. You don’t erect a gallows on the capital grounds without being noticed. Especially on that day. Of course there’s video of the construction. Of course there’s testimony. It’s just not being reported, and will likely be excluded from the pending report, I expect, along with other concerns, like institutional complicity.
The Jan 6th report should be quite a tale. The hearings were great but we’ll save that story for another day and just muse for a few moments over the Hang Mike Pence chapter of this massive crime.
The Jan 6th Insurrection Conspiracy
The testimony implies the vice president was supposed to be driven to the gallows by the secret service to be lynched by Trump’s mercenary mobsters. If Pence didn’t sabotage the electoral count, which he didn’t, they’d hang him, was the plan, supposedly. Pence resisted getting into the secret service car, the story goes and the plot was thwarted. The opportunity never arose to hang the VP.
Who knows? maybe that car really was heading to the gallows. Trump was heading there too. Just in case there was a photo-op with his freshly lynched VP, Trump would be there.
Who’s in charge?
If a hanging was ordered it would have happened. Just like the stand-down orders happened, that prevented the capital police from getting the assistance they needed, to help repel the attack against the capital.
Professionals follow orders. That’s how we know the stand-down order happened, but the hanging order did not. I would suspect the gallows plot was some drunken pipe dream, fulfilled and forgiven, and now forgotten by the establishment. That’s my guess.
The Hang Mike Pence theory is about as far-fetched as the plot to thwart the electoral count. Thinking that if the certification was not finished by morning, the election would be thrown to the house, which would have a republican majority, for the win, therefore handing the presidency to Trump, is ridiculous.
The only way that could have happened is if the democrats were dumb enough to capitulate to the idiotic logic necessary for that scenario to prevail. By legal interpretation, the senate could have finished their certification ceremony anywhere at anytime. Even if the conspirators did hang the VP, the new president of the Senate could still preform the ceremonial function, as written.
Any plausibility of the Hang Mike Pence narrative being true, if you can believe it, reeks of intentional failure by the democrats. Which is plausible. Failing is what they do best. So who knows?
The Dems were probably ready to concede, if possible, like they did 20 years prior. When Jeb’s crew threw the count to the court, they anointed their team to power for another eight long years with nary a peep of official complaint. The election of 2000 was an intentional failure, with little resistance by the Dems, despite the predictable and horrific consequences to the public and our treasury.
The Dems have a pattern of failing.
But, this time, Biden won. The VP was not hung, and it would have been ridiculous for him to say to some state, “Sorry, we are objecting to your electors.” That would have been a criminally crazy idea and a violation of the constitution. Like the so-called filibuster it would become another unconstitutional senate tradition to thwart democracy. The constitution does not provide for an objection when counting state electors. Recognizing an objection to state electors would be criminally unconstitutional, by an honest interpretation.
Legalize constitutional violations
Read the new electoral count act that just passed in response to the certification fiasco. The news reported that the language of the law was clarified to ensure certification, but no. They’re lying. Collectively, like with with the filibuster, they are all misreporting their misdefined information. The new electoral act actually allows for an objection to certification now. It redefines the process to allow for objections to the states’s electors, moving forward.
And you know they will object, or they would not have changed the language of the law to allow exactly that. The original intention of the constitutional language is to prevent the federal government from choosing its own members by excluding those they don’t like.
Duh.
The big and bloated fed club can now prevent their political opposition from being seated in congress. If they want. Thanks to the new electoral act, which unmasks the Orwellian intention, of our corporately controlled government, to prevent democracy.
The imperial presidency prevails again.
The extraction scam is so powerful and so profitable for the establishment, Mike Pence confessed he would still vote for Trump, even though Trump’s goons were plotting to kill him if he didn’t break the law for them. Mike would rather vote for those who would kill him, if they had to, than vote for those who might tax him, if they could.
That’s the power of the scam.
The establishment is unified against democracy. Violating the constitution is the only way to protect and defend the scam. Their lip service against the scam is always ineffective because the establishment loves the scam.
The Jan 6th hearings laid out a massive conspiracy for the public to witness and the public, for the most part, doesn’t care, apparently.
The insurrectionists are going to gain seats next week, they say. Which shows how unpopular democrats must be, with the public. It also shows the scam is more important than our democracy, to republican voters, and the establishment, by and large.
A red wave is coming.
Even though the establishment is a duopoly, the distinctions between the parties are super important to understand. The most important thing to understand is that democrats are trying to protect the public from the republicans. So vote for democrats.
The republicans fancy their victory as an elevator full of blood, pouring out onto everything as the doors open for them.
The republicans will begin to investigate democracy advocates instead of themselves, if they win. They will do whatever is necessary to maintain the scams that sustain their supremacy.
The democrats are selling belief in justice while the republicans are handing out stock buybacks, paid for by the public. Because money is representation, not belief, it’s pretty obvious who’s going to win.
The January 6th Committee has finally called on Trump to testify. Too little too late. They should have done that on day one. Trump won’t testify because he’s a liar. Too bad, it could be one of the most historic events in human history. Trump’s Jan 6th testimony could be the biggest pay-per view event ever, with or without the committee. He could go on for days, insulting members and lying about everything, and be applauded by his fans.
Trump could hire his own private committee to say whatever he wanted. Then he could berate them for not lying for him, and for their lack of loyalty, to him. The fans would love it. It could be his new show.
The Apprentice is now The Master.
That would fire up his “base”. The Trump cult has no shame. We’ve known all along Trump was the central character in the plot to attack the capital. Trump premeditated the entire treasonous mess with his conspirator friends. He certainly takes credit for it, because in his mind it was a victory. The Jan 6th Insurrection, though not ultimately successful in overturning the election, was a victory simply by happening. It was the symbolic first battle for the history books and possibly the last, for our democracy.
The midterms will determine whether or not our democratic potential is defeated forevermore, by the republicans. The irony is that both parties support the “system” of debt-based prosperity, which is what needs to change.
Either way we’re heading for a depression. Consider voting for the democrats as tapping the brakes, whereas a vote for republicans is like stepping on the gas, speeding toward increased conflict and militant authority. The destination is preordained.
The corporations and their lizard overlords funding our politicians are against democracy. They always have been and they always will be. They have no allegiance to, or concern for, the truth. They want to control the government for the privileges that come from doing exactly that, which includes authoritarian lawmaking to maximize private profits at the public’s expense, and to provide slush funds to political cronies.
That’s not a democracy.
We have a privatized corporate government where investors own the increasingly automated means of production and squeeze their ever-increasing profits from the working public. Investors are essentially monopolizing economic growth for themselves and depriving the public of the vital services they need.
The Democrats are paying lip service to the public to pretend they oppose losing our democracy to the “opposition”, but they don’t. They serve the money just like republicans do. The bipartisan duopoly establishment would prefer that the public debate abortion rights, while they continue to profit from public debt. You know that’s true or a Democratic senator would have filibustered Trump’s politically biased judges, and prevented the activist court from overturning abortion rights and voting rights,
Taxes are still off the table, as the debt hits $31 trillion.
The Democrats are always fighting to win back their last loss, but they never do. They might as well be called the loser party from now on because that’s the function they perform, for the public. Somehow, even with a majority, they would still lose.
That’s why a new apportionment act is so important.
Anyway, the committee laid out plenty of dirt in the hearings. Trump conspired with Team Crazy and a large cast of who knows who else? The crime was, and is, a massive conspiracy at the highest levels of our government. The elephant in the room is the crime continues to this day. There is an ongoing conspiracy to capture our government in order to sustain minority rule, and to preserve the extraction scam, for themselves.
The Trump Insurrection includes the secret service, with the inspector general colluding in their coverup. This was an establishment conspiracy by all counts. The dereliction of duty by authorities to prevent this illegal spectacle of violence against our capital in the first place, is implausible. The collusion is magnified by the fact that those very same conspirators are obstructing justice now, by destroying evidence. Which is another crime.
They’re all in on it.
The institutional collusion is inescapable, unless of course you ignore it, or cherry pick your concerns of distractions, as the investigators are doing. The establishment is guilty.
Rather than deconstruct this crime from the top down, our law enforcement focused on arresting protestors and tourists, as expected, from the bottom up, keeping the courts humming in profits. The DOJ has been dragging their feet in charging the real conspirators. Now it looks like they never will.
Those who planned and executed the mob violence against our government remain un-indicted, or uncooperative.
Justice has no appetite, they say.
A few mercenaries, who will be pardoned, may serve some time, but that is not the same as charging the intellectual architects of the crime. Law enforcement has chosen to focus on quantity, not quality. Justice prefers fining the pirates despite the commission laying out a red-carpet road map to the kingpins. The ongoing threats against our democracy remain legally unchecked.
The architects of the Trump Insurrection are getting away with their crimes. They conspired to overthrow the election and executed their plan with very little legal consequence. Now they openly plan to control our government using antidemocratic tactics like putting servants in positions of power. The irony is that they already have so the outcome is a forgone conclusion.
Our dying democracy is preordained, by design. Yet the news media demonizes conspiracy theories, not aware, apparently, that that once the conspiracy has solidified its control over our government the demonization tactics will serve the opposite purpose. Attacking our fraudulent democracy will be demonized as a big lie and a conspiracy theory. Despite being true, those who criticize our rigged and antiquated electoral systems as being fraudulent, will be punished for undermining faith in the system. Instead of fixing the system, the government will punish those who criticize it. That’s not a democracy.
Secret Documents
Just as the reports of institutional collusion and coverup about the Jan 6th insurrection started spreading into the weaponized wing of our government, instead of investigating themselves, authorities decided to “raid” Mar a Lago, to retrieve classified documents. Boxes of secrets that Trump apparently “acquired” for some reason have become the top-story now, for months. It’s a blatant departure from the pursuit of justice for the official co-conspirators, towards a nearly irrelevant and cartoonish villainy plot line that focuses only on Trump.
Nobody bothered to ask how he got the documents. We just all assume that the boss can walk away without any administrative protocols, if he wants to. No big deal, apparently, we’d assume.
The DOJ just gave immunity to a trump aide, Kash, for some crazy reason. As if he has information about the acquisition of the documents, which is the more relevant concern. The investigation should be at the national archives.
The motive to raid the resort was to change the subject away from the institutional collusion, to execute the insurrection. The redacted affidavit was a strategic diversion, from justice, by the DOJ. The concern for officials obstructing the commission, from the evidence necessary to hold the conspirators accountable, has been quickly forgotten by the pundits, in deference to the authorities, as usual. Move along.
Expect the main villain in the story to dominate the news for another two years now, until he regains the reigns of our dysfunctional government, where his real political motivations will remain secret and unreported, but understood and accepted by the establishment as the way it is.
Things look bleak now for the public and the future of democracy. There is the ongoing conspiracy to overthrow our government and it appears the institutions mandated to prevent that, are in on it. Antidemocratic forces are conspiring to prevent a representative government.
What is a representative government?
A representative government would reflect the electorate both geographically and economically. Voters would elect people from their own economic demographic. That would be more representative of who the voters are. Elected officials would then be more likely to represent those who elect them rather than serving those who buy them.
They say the old RINO’s, republican in name only, wing of the Republican Party is not undermining our democracy fast enough to satisfy the supremacist tendencies of the quickly growing crazy wing of the party. At least that’s how they spin it, to pretend their party is divided. But they’re not. They’ve always been the same by any other name, to some degree, those who are quite content to tolerate an ever increasing inequality.
The republicans have always been against representative government and democracy, so vote for democrats.
And I have to mention as I conclude my rant, the news is reporting that the speakers home was invaded and her husband was hammered on the head by some crazy right-wing freak, because she wasn’t there. It’s a horrible milestone in the escalation of violence between “sides”.
The crazy man apparently believes the speaker is part of a conspiracy that lies about not being communists or something. The perpetrator should be hauled in front of congress immediately to answer questions live, so the public can better understand the level of stupidity that motivated him to violence.
We need a public debate to make the truth self-evident. We should begin the televised truth commissions asap. I expect there will be no shortage of topics or inexplicable behavior based on the truth not being defined properly, or too unbelievable like our elections. We have the technology. We should be using it.
If reality is not debated and universally understood, it will be a good indication that the establishment would prefer the truth to be ambiguous, or elusive, or dictated to a skeptical public.
The adversarial intention of elected officials to provide the public with a representative government would then be even more self-evident than it is now.
