Bernanke Channels Willie Sutton In Assault On Social Security: 'That's Where The Money Is'
Commented Dec 05, 2009 at 01:38:42 in Business
“Tell me if I am wrong but is not Social Security and Medicare a completely different tax than the income tax?
Its not S.S. and Medicare that will break this Union. Its our GUNS AND BOMBS Budget which we export.
And the fruits of it, with 15 billion going to Is-ray-ill is the reason so many rightfully hate us.”

“His a a whimp to me now, who voted for him. It takes more courage to stand for peace, than it does to kill others. Too bad he doesn't know when to run.
But hey, I can't wait until the Military, with its 50cents of every dollar of our budget, breaks this Union.
For then things will be fixed.”

“I have an analogy that I use for this kind of situation.
A man who builds his muscles to look strong on the outside, wastes his time when he ignores the cancer within for he will surely die, and all the muscles in the world will avail him little.”

“We have had 5 straight days of rain here in Northern Virginia. How could I recharge two electric cars?
Have you even checked how much electricity is requried to recharge an electric car?
Sony Claifornia has brownouts on hot days. Now you are going to plug in 1 million cars?
I did notice that you only mentioned wind and sunshine poser. How are we going to replace petroleom, coal and nuclear powerplants”

“America, Israel and the rest of the Western world are poles apart when it comes to peace, all they want is they cannot accept other cultures, they want others to follow their immorality and their naked culture. So when you want to impose your culture and Secularism on others especially Muslims there will be violence and destruction where peace has no place. This has been going for the last 1500 years and it will never end. Invade, regime change and then install a corrupt puppet regime and blame it on the people who defend their countries as violent extremists, terrorist, fanatics and so forth. China is an example when it comes to Hong Kong and Taiwan. They did not want to invade Taiwan but let them live but never allowed it to declare independence. China's success also depended on their patience and hard work. Leaders of the Western world have so much to learn from China. What the Western world has is noting but corrupt Democracy, Secularism, and greedy Capitalism.”

“Yes put in on the ballot. Yet Massachusetts messed up with its H.C. Plan. They should have found a way to expand both Mass-Health and Common-Wealth-Health. Now its just against the law not to have H.C. How I make too much on SSDI to have fallen off of Mass-Health and Common-Wealth-Health still puzzles me.”

“Jerry if you are a Lawyer, as I know you are. Bring Court cases against the greedy. I want that big party of Isaiah 25 where fine food and drinks will party for about a month, or as long as it takes to fix things.
Even if it takes throwing the kings in jail so we can use the profits for those who need them, as Isaiah 23:17-18 and 24: 21-24 talks about.
Bring them to Court Jerry Brown. You first name is not Charlie..”

And don't forget the Worker Ownership of the Mondragon Cooperative, so Workers can earn an Honest 21st Century Wage so they can take care of Themselves, like the Republicans always talk about.
I love the idea of having Capital at the Service of Labor, not the Labor at the service of Capital, for only Labor can talk, which is contrary to popular opinion...”

“Ya I hope and wish Obama will read Ron Paul's "End the FED" which I've just started reading. Very interesting. I could add "The Coming Battle" (written in the 1890s) to that list too; for its about how the banking money powers of the 1800s caused all the depressions of the 1800s.”

“Don't confuse what Russia and China gave a bad name to with help from the corps here in this Union, with what true Socialism is. The beat example is the Mondragon Cooperative in the Basque Rgion of Northern Spain. It might be the 7th largest Comapny in Spain right now and the Workers own the Bank.
I don't see a class Society ever happening here like the English Socialist party talks about. There will always be Sport Players, Movie Stars, writers etc etc here.
But lets get to the core of what Socialism is. The First Saints had all things in common. Engels wrote about: fro each according to his ability to each according to his needs.
I love the idea of Capital being at the Service of Labor. So many people today still think money talks when really on Labor can. So if you like what we have now; Labor at the service of Capital, you really should check out the principals of things.”
