Are you Voting on 2012? | For Whom? | Elections

A Second look at the Federal Reserve

I am sorry to break the news to you like this but your vote for a new president is worth exactly . . . nothing!

This is a brief summary of how it really works: In 1913 a few big bankers got together in secrecy on Jekyll Island and came up with a way to control our government with the federal reserve scam. Please see: A Central Bank’s Scheme  Also a good book on the subject is The Creature from Jekyll Island, A Second Look at the Federal Reserve by G. Edward Griffin.

Then in 1963 President John F Kennedy tried to start taking the control away from the Federal Reserve and the Military Industrial Complex (he wanted peace) and he was assassinated, followed shortly after by Robert Kennedy and Martin Luther King (What a coincidence! Three great leaders assassinated).

In 2001 the 3 World Trade Center high rises were brought down by controlled demolition (See  AE 9/11 Truth and A George Bush and 9/11 ) flying a couple of planes into two of them to make it look like  “a terrorist attack” and have an excuse to go to war, a flag attack.

Conclusion: If we elect a good man for the job (a real leader) he will be assassinated within a year or so. If you elect a run-of-the-mill politician he will do as they tell him to do. Therefore, until we clean house, elections are useless. Write to your congressmen (and women). Let them know that you know what is going on and you want a new government! Until then our only useful vote is how we spend our money. Boycott the mega banks! Buy an electric car or no car. Support small business. That is your only vote right now.

And spread the word. Remember, “For tyranny to get a foothold all it needs is the silence of  people of good conscience.”–Thomas Jefferson 



Lawman Bass Reeves, US Deputy Marshall | Food for Thought

U.S. Deputy Marshall Bass Reeves

“The First African American US Deputy Marshall West of the Mississippi River”

I was browsing at Borders Books and Music, and I found this book about a famous lawman named Bass Reeves who was a black man; and who was so efficient that survived 14 gunfights without a scratch. He brought in more than 3,000 felons in 32 years of service under Judge Parker (the hanging judge). 

How many movies has Hollywood made about Wyatt Earp and Doc Holliday? We have been given a very distorted view of history, haven’t we? Food for thought.

I found a movie about Reeves that was released on 2010, and I missed it because I didn’t even hear about it.  Although I have to admit I don’t go to the movies that often. I guess I’ll get it on itunes later. 

“He was the most famous lawman the west ever had.  During his thirty-two years of service he fought in fourteen shoot-outs and was never wounded once.  He brought in over three thousands outlaws, was an expert tracker and marksman and often wore disguises to enter outlaw sanctums.  Yet to this day, his name is only known to a handful of historians.  Why is this so?  Because Bass Reeves was a black man.”

Awakening | Steve Hagen | Buddhism is not what you think

To better understand Buddhism, Steve Hagen is one of the authors I recommend the most. This quote is from “Buddhism is not what you think”. (Recommended reading)

“To seek enlightenment as though we expect some kind of payback is only to frustrate ourselves. If you really want to wake up, then just wake up.” Or to paraphrase Kabir, if you really want to see “It”, you’ll see it instantly.

It is simple! Our thinking mind (ego) wants complication. Pay attention. It is all right “Here”.

Everything is interconnected. I may be on the road again soon. Last trip? Maybe.  Mexico? Maybe. And dancing . We are here to break boundaries, aren’t we?   

The woods are lovely, dark and deep.
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.

Dogen Zenji (Kigen Eihei), Japanese Master of Zen | Soto Zen

Dogen

By chance I came across this book of quotes (Teachers of Wisdom) on google, and I found a particular quote, which is attributed to Dogen: “A Zen’s master life is one continuous mistake.” And I couldn’t help but thinking, ‘Hey, at least we have something in common’. 🙂

I am including a couple of more quotes that I thought interesting and the link to the book.

“Do not follow the ideas of others, but learn to listen to the voice within yourself. Your body and mind will become clear and you will realize the Unity of all things”

“Just do good for others without thinking of making yourself known so that you may gain reward. This is the primary requisite for breaking free of attachments to the self.” books

Daily Coyote | Shreve Stockton

The Daily Coyote

Shreve Stockton adopted a newborn coyote a while back, and now they are the best of friends. She says: “Charlie came into my life when he was ten days old, orphaned after his parents were shot for killing sheep, He lives with a tomcat, a hound and me in Wyoming.” Her book The Daily Coyote is “a meditation on the nature of wildness versus domestication, and of forgiveness, loyalty, and love in all its forms”.

The Federal Reserve System Scam | G Edward Griffin | Murray N. Rothbard

A few weeks ago, I wrote a post referring to the book by Edward Griffin, The Creature from Jekyll Island; A Second Look at the Federal Reserve. I have to admit that I haven’t read it in its entirety yet, but he has a summary at the end of each chapter that gives you a clear understanding of the problem that the Federal Reserves creates, how it does it, and why. It also explains how to proceed to solve the problem, and what can we do as individuals. Since this creature can bring the nation down, I decided to recommend it a second time. Everything is explained in a a way so simple that even someone like me, who is not well versed in these matters, can easily understand.

I also did some research and found the work of  Murray N. Rothbard, The Case Against the Fed. “The most powerful case against the American Central Bank ever written”

“Murray N. Rothbard, a scholar of extraordinary range, made major contributions to economics, history, political philosophy, and legal theory. He developed and extended the Austrian economics of Ludwig von Mises, in whose seminar he was a main participant for many years. He established himself as the principal Austrian theorist in the latter half of the twentieth century and applied Austrian analysis to historical topics such as the Great Depression of 1929 and the history of American banking.”

What Griffin has done then is make the Creature from Jekyll Island, (the monster), easy to understand. Recommended! Again! Important!

Carrol Quigley – the bankers’ plan

“The Power of financial capitalism had [a] far reaching plan, nothing less than to create a world system of financial control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each country and the economy of the world as a whole.This system was to be controlled in a feudalistic fashion by the central banks of the world acting in concert, by secret agreements arrived at in frequent meetings and conferences.

The apex of the system was to be the Bank for International Settlements in Basel, Switzerland, a private bank owned and controlled by the world’s central banks, which were themselves private corporations.

Each central bank sought to dominate its government by its ability to control treasury loans, to manipulate foreign exchanges, to influence the level of economic activity in the country, and to influence co-operative politicians by subsequent rewards in the business world.”

Carrol Quigley, Tragedy and Hope, 1966 – [Bill Clinton’s mentor and Georgetown University professor]

Federal Reserve conspiracy

Jim Marrs, in his book Crossfire: The Plot That Killed Kennedy, speculated that the assassination of Kennedy might have been motivated by the issuance of Executive Order 11110.[47] This executive order enabled the Treasury to print silver certificates, bypassing the Federal Reserve System. Executive Order 11110 was not officially repealed until the Ronald Reagan Administration. Official explanations claim that the executive order was simply an attempt to drain the silver reserves, and did not actually endanger the careers of anyone working at the Federal Reserve.[48]

This theory was further explored by U.S. Marine sniper and veteran police officer Craig Roberts in the 1994 book, Kill Zone.[49] Roberts theorized that the Executive Order was the beginning of a plan by Kennedy whose ultimate goal was to permanently do away with the United States Federal Reserve, and that Kennedy was murdered by a cabal of international bankers determined to foil this plan.

Actor and author Richard Belzer has also discussed this theory. According to Belzer the plot to kill Kennedy was set in motion as a response to the President’s attempt to shift power away from the Federal Reserve and to the U.S Treasury Department.

Listen to the “speech that got President Kennedy killed” and tell me what you think. Your opinion counts. Thanks!
