There are fundamental flaws in how American government operates today,
contrary to the Constitution and the vision of a representative republican form of governance.
I intend doing something about it: by educating and informing others who
are not even aware of the dangers.

Fight Organized Crime: Abolish the Federal Reserve



With the east snowed in and the west (here anyway) getting ready for some more rain in the valley and snow in the mountains, I got to thinking about the snowball that will become an avalanche to the American economy and taxpayer with the beginning of a new year.

Americans need to know why we are in financial crisis and that the government cannot provide the answers. The reason they can't is because the Federal Reserve makes decisions that effect our lives in secret. They claim that is done to protect the markets from speculators that would take their deliberations as signals to use to buy or sell stock. They claim that interest rate changes made known before official announcements are made could also give a few an unfair "insider trading" advantage.

The truth about our American currency is that it is a sham. It's counterfeit and worthless paper and fancy inks. There is no asset value to the money we call legal tender for all debts public and private. In fact, I am thinking about insisting on payment in silver or gold. I would probably get paid in copper or a few silver pieces, but certainly not pieces of eight. In that way, no matter what the paper or electronic exchange system of credit and debit financial transactions, precious metals will always hold their value. Gold will never be worthless glitter, never!

We the people of these disorganized, poorly represented states of the Central North American continent will soon lose the national sovereignty that we hold to be so precious. The great foundations of the United States of America have been eroding for decades now, and current generations are not even aware of the significance of the Constitution rights and responsibilities of the people and the respective government elected by the people for their representation. We are losing it to become combined with Canada and Mexico as a new "political and trade" entity called the North American Union and will have as its currency the Amero. Yeah I know, sounds just like that crazy conspiracy theory bull-puckey.

We can never get out of debt when the value of the money we have is set by the central banks which are the secret owners of the Federal Reserve System. Currency without asset backing has no real value outside the dictates of the huge banks that are willing to except that currency in fair trade value. But what does determine the value of asset-backed currency? In the case of the British Pound, it would be one pound of silver. The United States used to have Silver Dollars that were actually worth more on the international market than it's one US dollar value because the weight of silver in that dollar may have risen on other monetary systems, but for us at least, we are not effected by it unless we are dealing with foreign markets.

Why did this nation really go from a sound gold backed reserve system with coins of precious metals with real tangible value, to a system of credits and debits? The credits always seem to be on the plus side for the Federal Reserve and on the debit side for the American taxpayer. This happens in greater or lesser amounts depending on what? The mood of the money barons?

I feel it is my duty as a patriotic American to inform my fellow citizens of any transgressions against our basic Constitutional rights and responsibilities. In my way of thinking it would be treasonous if I did not make others aware of these unscrupulous and felonious acts that are perpetrated on the people of this nation with our government's sanction and support. Congress passed laws to create the Internal Revenue Service and to levy taxes on all Americans. But that is a topic for another time.

There are bills currently before both houses, HR1207 and S604 which both call for auditing the Federal Reserve. I feel that as far as they will go to make public the transactions of out tax dollars, it will not replace the reason that the Federal Reserve Act must be repealed and Congress must have ready a plan to coin currency and set its value.

Gold and silver coin will be used to provide tangible valued currency for exchange of goods and services. Paper money which will be Gold or Silver Certificates, will then be used in lieu of bulky and heavy coin but must be accepted for exchange of its equivalent value of gold or silver on demand by a US Treasury Reserve Bank which will also supply local private banks with exchange of certificates or metal coin and bullion.

Do your own research my dear and fellow American Patriots, before Old Glory will be replaced with a new "corporate" flag of the new Union of North American States.

Merry Christmas!

Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Healthcare

It's been a while since I have posted so I thought it was time that I did. A lot has been going on in my life and I have been busy handling many different tasks.

I have started being a caregiver for a very good friend that suffered a massive stroke. That in itself will be taking up a good part of my time. But I want to stay active in the Libertarian ideology for fixing America, so I am looking at starting a blog talk radio show possibly in January. I will invite guests and I will of course have to have listener call-ins.

So now that I let you in on my life, lets get to the liberty and healthcare issues. Any public option is socialized medicine. And anyone that has read the bill would see how that can be used to adversely affect the patient. Now of course Congress will reassure you that is not the intent of the legislation, but how can they say that when they haven't read it themselves?

There needs to be a law that simply put, Congress cannot pass a law that Congress itself has not read and fully understands. And then explain it to the people that elected you, so that they can offer there own feelings and opinions regarding its benefits to We the People.

The biggest problem with health care is health care coverage. Health care plans are not insurance plans because it is not there as insurance if something goes wrong, it is there to provide the maintenance one needs today in an under nourished and over medicated nation. Quick remedies with flashy ads and strange sounding names have replaced common sense.

The technologies that have made a difference in human health are not drugs. Refrigeration that allows foods to be stored longer without spoilage, basic hygiene as is washing hands after handling anything that can be a possible source of bacteria and virus.

Now medical science on the other hand made leaps and bounds until drugs became the way of the future, our present in medicine.May may now possess the ability to look into the micro world of living virus to observe it in vitro. We have the ability to test non-invasive means such as light and sound and even radio waves to treat and heal.

Simple remedies lick apple cider vinegar and hydrogen peroxide are not even mentioned when we have names like Tamiflu and Nyquil. And it helps relieve all those symptoms. Yes, but it offers no cure for what caused those symptoms and that is the key to my opposition to any health care bill which does not first and foremost, address why health care costs go up.

And if people are getting sicker then it's because of all the processed foods, high fructose corn syrup, fluoride toothpaste, fruits and vegetables that have little real nutritional value, and quick fix drug relief from every little annoyance one may encounter physically.

I'll end my monologue here as I contemplate my Christmas blog.

And Happy Chanukah!

Stay out of my medicine cabinet!

The FDA recently has demanded that Proctor & Gamble stop selling its Vick's Nyquil products which contain vitamin C because it violates the mixing of supplements with drugs. Now to some this may seem trivial, but in reality it is a blow against the supplement market in general, and against the rights of an individual to pursue a course of treatment they feel comfortable with for their own health.

Contrary to the FDA and AMA position regarding the use of natural supplements, I have found that these supplements have done more to enhance my own health and reduce my need to visit professional health care practitioners significantly. Recently, while battling a kidney stone, I used chamomile tea for pain and apple cider vinegar to reduce the stone(s) for passing. The only other treatment was using a heating pad on the area in pain, and that also proved to be most effective, and I did not have to ingest any pain medications at all.

My Grandfather who was a physician for over 50 years, and a man that I respected more than anyone, insisted that drugs treat symptoms and do not cure diseases. I see advertisements on television for drugs that relieve symptoms of allergies, arthritis pain, Asthma, erectile dysfunction, cholesterol, and the list goes on. No cures offered, only relief of the symptoms. But at what price?

If drugs don't cure, then why are we being "forced" to take them? If natural supplements work within the body to build and reinforce the immune system, then why are they ostracized? Plain and simple, it is all about profits. The AMA has done nothing short of extorting from the drug manufacturers, to lobby the government to keep out any real cures from reaching the public.

Americans must be informed, they must be made aware of treatments and cures that do work, even though they have not been sanctioned by the AMA or the FDA. The FDA needs to be held accountable to the people, and not to the AMA and the pharmaceutical companies that profit from this collusion.

Let your Congressional representatives know how you feel and demand they take action on your behalf. After all,they do work for us, and not the lobbyists from corporations.
