There are two ways to be fooled. One is to believe what isn't true;
the other is to refuse to believe what is true.

This is not a professional Web site.
I do enough of that elsewhere.
This is my site.
It's unpolished - just like me.

Please stay awhile and explore. You will find information here that is vital to all of us.
If you find yourself thinking that some of it is "way out there", then good!  You need to consider it - as well as what your current premise and frame of reference is.
Don't trust ME!
Do some RESEARCH!      You can start here.

We'll look at important economic and political events, big money interests and your pocketbook, the New World Order, and other stranger-than-fiction stuff!
Along the way, we'll watch some movies.

Doesn't sound interesting? If you are ready to go off somewhere else, I can say with full confidence that you have not studied any of the issues held in these pages, and you have no interest in the forces that affect your life and your livelihood.
Okay!     Thanks for dropping by!     Have a nice day!     Good Luck!
(Hopefully, you are on a really heavy spiritual path!)

If you care to take this little journey, please leave your Real ID at the door. If you don't know what a Real ID is, then buckle up boys and girls!  Homeland Security is going to take you on a real BIG ride!  It'll be just as much fun as a cold toilet seat! [INFO]

Come along ... we'll see if we can figure out what matters and what doesn't.

Our words for today are "naivety" and "denial". Hold on to them tight, because there are words and thoughts and perceptions here that will try to eat them up!  They'll give you something in return, but if those words have been keeping you warm and fuzzy, maybe you might want to put them back on when we're done, so you'll be more comfortable. ... I understand. Here's a secure bag to keep them in, courtesy of Homeland Security, in the interest of preserving these cultural concepts. For your own safety, of course.

Oh! Here's a phrase to munch on during the journey; What do you suppose that means? We're about to find out.

Okay .... Ready? Here we go!

See this cute little box below? That's called debt accumulation. It's called that because it's not money we're spending, it's money that Rocky the squirrel and his friends pull out of their magic hat and loan to us. Soon, we may have to get a bigger box to hold all our numbers!  We're only about halfway there, but if we can reach the 1 trillion dollar mark, we will have accumulated as much debt as it took our nation 200 years to accumulate previously. And all that with just one little war!  But don't go away - we've got some much bigger numbers to show you!
Don't worry though - it's not our debt - it's the nations's debt. All YOU have to do is pay the interest with your tax dollars. Your grandchildren will pay the rest. Aren't they nice!

"How tragic it is to see old men who are unwilling to talk to potential adversaries but seem so ready to dispatch young people to fight and die."
   -- General Wesley K. Clark, former supreme commander of NATO

"Why should we hear about body bags and deaths and how many, what day it's gonna happen?...It's not relevant. So why should I waste my beautiful mind on something like that?"
     -- Barbara Bush, "Good Morning America," the day before the start of the Iraq war

"Military men are just dumb, stupid animals to be used as pawns in foreign policy."
     -- Henry Kissinger (Rocky's friend) [MORE INSPIRATIONAL QUOTES FROM HENRY]

Fascism (Encyclopedia Britannica): "... militaristic nationalism, contempt for electoral democracy and political and cultural liberalism, a belief in natural social hierarchy and the rule of elites, and the desire to create a Volksgemeinschaft (German: 'people’s community'), in which individual interests would be subordinated to the good of the nation."

Is the United States Bankrupt?
What a silly question to ask huh!  Let's explore some history and economics. Don't cringe - this is just the surface. You'll have to explore the rest on your own - if you dare to. Besides, this will be fun!  We'll show you a little magic trick and make your tax dollars disappear right behind your back. Watch ...

From the time of George Washington to the beginning of Ronald Reagan's term, the nation had accumulated a national debt amounting to the staggering figure of almost 1 trillion dollars. Today, , up from the 5.7 trillion dollar figure in place when George Bush took office. We've already promised $34,000,000,000.00 (34 trillion) more in Medicare alone. Add in Social Security and other programs and the amount goes up to 59 trillion! Now ... here's the magic trick I promised you. Let's take one of your tax dollars and give it to the government and see what we get back in goods and services.

Oops!  Where'd it go? Did the government get it ... Nooo! ... Can you figure out where it went? I'll give you a little hint ... ask Rocky the squirrel.

The tax money you give the government does not build roads, fund the war, or help to pay the national debt. Your hard-earned dollars, instead, are paying the interest on the national debt. When all is said and done, 100% of income tax revenues end up filling the pockets of a group of private bankers who own and control the Federal Reserve, or in the coffers of some foreign country. [MORE INFO] No matter what route they take, those dollars may still come to rest in the same place. That's because the Federal Reserve is owned by international bankers who have their fingers in everyone's economy. Of course, I'm sure they have the best interests of the American people at heart - aren't you?

Field trip time!  Now we're off to Fort Knox to look at our gold!  Did you know the United States has a lot more gold than any country in the world? We better go get the Treasury Secretary first, or they won't let us in...

Hmmm - the Treasury Secretary says they won't let him see the gold. I'll bet it's that pesky Rocky Squirrel again!  Don't worry, I'll go over and get Uncle Sam. They can't stop him from getting in! ...

Okay - trip's cancelled!  Uncle Sam says he hocked the gold to Rocky and his friends. Sorry!

Although the facts are a bit muddled in controversy due to incomplete audits, I believe it is fair to assume that our gold is still sitting in the bottom of Fort Knox. At least - most of it, I guess. We haven't really looked at it for 24 years.

The problem is, the U.S. Treasury no longer legally possesses our gold.

It is held as "collateral" by the Federal Reserve for the money we owe them. The squirrel and his friends say they'll give it back a soon as we pay them what we owe. I'm sorry if this comes as a surprise ... Some surprises are just no fun at all!

Okay - perspective time!  Let's see if we can figure this one out together ... This group of wealthy oligarchs who control our money supply are the ultimate beneficiaries of your hard-earned tax dollars, which go to pay the interest on the money we owe them. Until the principle of that debt is paid, they get to keep our gold.

Here's a multiple choice question for you ... When do you think this debt will be paid and we can get our gold back? (no peeking!)

1. Next Week
2. Next Year
3. Never

If you answered 1 or 2, I'll give you some time to think about it ... okay?

Where did Rocky and his friends get the money to loan the government that you, the taxpayer, are paying the interest on? That's easy ... they pulled it out of an empty hat that Congress gave them! ... It's magic!

Look!  There they are now ... see how happy they are! They've found the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow!

These magicians are a small group of banking families who undergo no audits and have diplomatic immunity anywhere in the world. Does this give you any idea just how wealthy and powerful they are?
Don't you wish you were that wealthy and powerful?
What would you do?
Remember that old song "If I ruled the World"?

Do you know how Rocky and his friends want to control the freedom you now enjoy? Do you think the government is being run by the President and Congress? Have you finished digesting Institutionalizing conflicting interests yet?
Hmmm ... maybe we better take a side trip to the library so you can do some reading. I can't tell you this stuff!  You wouldn't believe me. You would think, "If this were really happening, I would have heard about it!" You are depending on the wrong sources for your information and you are ignoring what you do see. Here - let's take a walk off this cliff!  Trust me - you'll be fine. I've seen it on TV!  Besides, everyone knows it's not really a cliff. Are you ready? ...

You have to find out for yourself. Truth is not TOLD - it is realized. [HERE'S A CLUE] or, for a better understanding of how all this came about, watch this video!

Let's meet David!
David is an important man in the government. He was hired by Bill, the President, but he's still in office, even though Bill isn't, because his job lasts 15 years. It's kind of a hassle, because every time we switch presidents over that 15 year period, he has to be reappointed by the new president and then Congress needs to decide if he's cool enough to continue doing his job.

David is the current Comptroller General of the United States, and head of the Government Accountability Office, which some people call the GAO because it's hard for them to say three big words at once.

Anyway, this is what David said:
"Every American has an implicit mortgage of over $175,000.00 each. Each household has an additional implicit mortgage of over $400,000.00 each. But, unlike a typical mortgage, there's no house to back this, and, therefore, what we are doing is we're mortgaging the future of our children and grandchildren at an unacceptable rate, and that is not only an issue of fiscal irresponsibility, it's an issue of immorality."

Speaking on government trust funds, Walker said: "These trust funds - they're not real trust funds - they're 'trust the government' funds. If the private sector had trust funds like the federal government, somebody would be going to jail!"

Woah!  Either David Walker is a brave guy for speaking out, or a bunch of government people got together and said "You tell 'em David - no one votes you in office!" Your politicians aren't going to tell the American people this because it's not going to get them elected. However you want to take David Walker's words, one thing you should not do is ignore them!

So what do we do? We can't just keep pulling worthless money out of Rocky's magic hat, because its not real money and it decreases the value of the money in your pocket. But Congress keeps spending ...

Hey!  - Somebody came up with another idea!  We can go ask another country if we can borrow some of their money! People like our good friends in China and Saudi Arabia. George Bush has borrowed over $1 trillion from foreign governments. What an achievement! That's more than the combined total amount we've borrowed in our entire history!  The only problem is we not only have to pay interest on these loans, but they come with strings attached, such as trade agreements that hurt U.S. industry and the U.S. worker. We usually end up spending most of that money with the borrower, then borrowing more from somewhere else to pay the interest on the loan.

That's crazy!  Why would we do that? Because our politicians are spending money like alcoholics running a brewery, and they don't want to keep raising the price of beer (taxes) because they're afraid you won't vote for them. It's at the point where they are drinking more beer than they are selling, so they're diluting the quality of the beer and borrowing more money from the bank to keep the brewery afloat.

Meanwhile, Rocky and his friends are milking us for most of what we've got and encouraging us to consume and consume and use our credit cards so they can keep us in debt, which gives them reason to pull more paper money out of their magic hat and charge us for it.

The mainstream media is not going to inform you of dire probabilities or the domination of the military-industrial-banking complex. They are part of that complex. [MORE INFO]

Before the FCC deregulated media ownership in the United States, there were literally thousands of media organizations. Today, this ownership has been consolidated down to nine controlling big-money interests. These media giants are interested in profits - not muckraking or exposing truths outside the status-quo. [MORE INFO] In other words, they're going to tell you what they think you want to hear. For the most part, most Americans do not want to hear the truth. They want to hear that everything is "okay".
Everything is not "okay"!
If you think it is, you need to examine your premises and do some research.

But then, why read a book written by someone who is actually involved in the situation, or a scholar who has studied it when you can gat a condensed version of who that person is and what they have to say all wrapped up in a fast-news sandwich delivered by your stylish TV newscaster? That will tell you all you need to know. Certainly, your newscaster has studied this subject in great depth or they wouldn't have a job telling hundreds of thousands of people about it.

The TV news may not even mention these people or events. But then, if the media doesn't feel these people or events are newsworthy, they must not be important to you.
Why waste your time?

Besides, if the subject is controversial, you have to spend time and mental energy separating the wheat from the chaff and reading both sides of an issue, instead of just hearing the "fair and balanced" report from the ranks of status-quo talking heads. You would actually have to do a lot more work than they do, and they get paid for it!  I know you're probably way too busy to figure out what's affecting your lifestyle and your future.

If the thought of actually knowing what is going on in the world is just too stressful for you, just close your eyes and don't think about it.
That's what most people do.
They just leave it up to the talking heads of the status quo to keep them informed in little short digestible sound bites. Its kind of like having lunch at McDonald's, except there's no toys for the kids.

Certainly these sources are trustworthy and know what is important to you. I'm sure they are concerned about your well being and will go out of their way to inform you and tell you the truth, even if they, themselves, don't understand it.

If you trust in this self-perpetuating myth that permeates the surface of our social reality, then stop! ... don't think ... I'm sure it will only confuse you ... and certainly you have more important things to do.

Here ... open your Homeland Security bag and put your naivety and denial back on.

There!  Now the world's all warm and fuzzy again!  That was easy, wasn't it!
Now ... don't read any further. Go visit the Muppets web site. It's lots of fun. Really!  Its one of my favorite sites!  Its one of the places I go when I don't want to think about things.

Whatever you do, don't lose your sense of humor ... it may be the only valuable asset you posess!

We're such grand consumers that we support 3rd world countries by paying them to import our garbage. Isn't that great!  The Story of Stuff will tell you how we accomplish this wonderful wealth sharing.

"Depopulation should be the highest priority of foreign policy towards the third world, because the U.S. economy will require large and increasing amounts of minerals from abroad - especially from less developed countries."      -- Henry Kissinger

Self Destruction?

Some of the greatest fortunes are made by it, and many have died for it. Countries have been destroyed for it, and everyone wants to control it. Some say it's almost gone while others scoff at the thought. Without it, the machinery of the industrialized world would grind to a halt.

By now you've probably guessed that I'm talking about oil. Does all this have to be? Do we need oil and fossil fuels to run the world?

The answer is NO!

30 years ago, a 24-year-old Texas man named Tom Ogle invented a "black box" that completely replaced the carburetor on an internal combustion engine, and obtained gas milage of 100 to 300 mpg. He was offered millions of dollars by big oil companies to sell the rights to his invention, but he turned them down. He was quite aware they had no intention of marketing the unit.

4 years later, after receiving funding from a millionaire investor, Ogle barely survived a shooting by an unknow assailant. A short time later, he was found dead of what was diagnosed as a combination of alcohol and darvon. His patent, for some reason, is in limbo. The millionaire won't discuss the subject. There are many similar stories.

Originally, I talked here of the Story of Joseph Newman's power generator, which proclaimed to set the laws of physics on end with the invention of what could only be described as a "perpetual motion machine". Newman had 30 respected scientists and engineers who, after testing, seemed to back up his statements. However, for various reasons, mainly involved with the eccentricities of Joseph Newman, I have removed this video. When dealing with an invention this important - one that necessitates a battle against multi-national corporate power and its political partners, personal integrity becomes as important as the invention itself.

It seems, however, that Newman was on the right track, as witnessed by the power generator designed by two Australian engineers. Video - Power Generator

Other technologies exist, from cold fusion to engines that run on nitrogen or even water, that could reduce or entirely eliminate our use of fossil fuels. There is much evidence that these technologies have been suppressed - through unethical but legal means - such as the buying and subsequent "burying" of invention patents or removal of grant funds, to threats, extortion and even murder. The message is that upsetting the status quo could be extremely hazardous to your health.

For information on cold fusion, the "air" car, and other technologies, see the top menu selection "Other Stuff".

"We are not afraid to entrust the American people with unpleasant facts, foreign ideas, alien philosophies, and competitive values. For a nation that is afraid to let its people judge the truth and falsehood in an open market is a nation that is afraid of its people."

"The individual is handicapped when coming face-to-face with a conspiracy so monstrous he cannot believe it exists."

"Only the small secrets need to be protected. The big ones are kept secret by public incredulity."

"We are on the verge of a global transformation. All we need is the right major crisis and the nation will accept the New World Order."

"The people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. Its easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger."

"It is one of those cases where the art of the reasoner should be used rather for the sifting of details than for the acquiring of fresh evidence. The tragedy has been so uncommon, so complete and of such personal importance to so many people that we are suffering from a plethora of surmise, conjecture and hypothesis. The difficulty is to detach the framework of fact - of absolute undeniable fact - from the embellishment of theorists and reporters. Thus, having established ourselves upon this sound basis, it is our duty to see what inferences may be drawn, and what are the special points upon which the whole mystery turns."
  -- Sherlock Holmes

"Today Americans would be outraged if U.N. troops entered Los Angeles to restore order; tomorrow they will be grateful! This is especially true if they were told there was an outside threat from beyond, whether real or promulgated, that threatened our very existence. It is then that all peoples of the world will pledge with world leaders to deliver them from this evil. The one thing every man fears is the unknown. When presented with this scenario, individual rights will willingly be relinquished for the guarantee of their well-being granted to them by their world government."
  -- Henry Kisinger in an address to the Bilderberg group meeting at Evian, France, on May 21, 1991, as transcribed from a tape recording made by one of the Swiss delegates.

Way down here, near the bottom of the page, is the most shocking story of all. It is precisely because it is so unbelievably shocking that I have put it down here. I didn't want to lose you right off the bat.

Should you venture through this doorway, your life may never be the same. You may begin to wonder if every thing you ever knew is wrong. You may feel a range of emotions; shock; anger; fear. You will be faced with the need to consider whether a sinister conspiracy, far beyond the range of anything you would have previously accepted as even remotely possible, did occur and is continuing to inch toward a goal that will change the world as we know it. You may begin to understand that obvious lies can be perpetrated on the American people, and, indeed, the world at large, and succeed in creating an illusion that is nothing short of a masquerade of reality. Lies so big and so preposterous that few will accept the obvious facts.

As our friend Sherlock said, not all of the facts may be obvious and there is good reason to dispute some, but one thing becomes clear - we have been lied to. Thousands of people died in the events centered around this lie. The lie has enabled the passage of legislation and executive orders that provide for the possibility of dictatorial powers, media control, the shredding of the constitution and the loss of free speech in the United States. These laws supercede the will of Congress and place unconstitutional powers in the hands of the President. [MORE INFO]
