No clue Higg since this has been going on for a very long time but we can guess. Malachi had the same problem with folks also and as noted to us "They will be Mine," says the Lord of hosts, "on the day that I prepare My own possession, and I will spare them as a man spares his own son who serves him." So you will again distinguish between the righteous and the wicked, between one who serves God and one who does not serve Him.

I thought that notion from the r brand today on a comment, of on our own. I figured as warned, a long time to go silent was on its way but
no man can know. A old man when I was very, very young told me what was to be on on how the people would be treated.
Uncanny how those old souls could see but thats just me on a specific local issue of its day alone.

As the nuts who attacked them long ago for not "being one" and dunking chicks to we will play the great game of arrogated
confidence that Empires went to be negated is alot of ground for simple minds to embrace.

Circles are typical and some are just old excuses to skin you. As for the current blend of thoughts we will watch
the paradox of thrift as noted bear it own facts since they crafted it. Also taxpayers do know right from wrong. Caeser is dead I owe
him no dues. Paying idiots to be idiots means we are. Locally we can get by with the Mayor and Sheriff and the
Govenor the nerd who balances a budget but much after that is truly text book how to be fish heads. I closed a business
since they kept poking us and we moved fifty miles to another and many reasons as things do evolve. Taxpayers are clearly
understanding the addage we are only allowed to be so good is just what it . Barrel of fishheads removed from reality and
as we read 83 percent still being just what they appear to be. Defense is separate topic.

What should happen is the taxing authority should be entirely within the state and local governments; the Federal government cannot tax. Then the Federal government should be required to come to the Governors with a budget and the Governors can decide what to fund out of that request. The underlying theme would be that the Federal government works for the people of the states, not the other way around.
While the periphery breaks down rather slowly at first, the capital cities of the hegemon should collapse suddenly and violently.

Of course you would also have to get rid of the Federal government ability to print money and collect an inflation tax.

Under a system like this the Federal government would have no authority to tax, issue debt or issue currency. Each state would issue its own currency and the money given to the Federal government for spending and for international trade would be an electronic currency based on a weighted basket of the state currencies. With computers this should be easy to implement. Having debt issurance and currency for each state would keep the states competitive and within reasonable limits of debt to production. The states that are closely allied could also form currency blocks within limits.

Why Men Are “Going Galt”: A Review of Men On Strike
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
H -- Another facet of this issue ( or description ) is the way society ( government , etc ) treats the productive vs the unproductive -- simplistically -- the productive are taxed, ridiculed, and punished ( attacked ) -- whereas the unproductive are supported, protected and actions excused. So what would an intelligent person do? If one has scruples, --- one goes Galt?

Yes, I got a performance appraisal about 15 years ago - very complimentary, said I did good work. We were allowed to write comments on it and it got sent to the Headquarters personnel department. On mine I wrote a simple statement: "Employees who do good work are not rewarded, but are instead punished with difficult work assignments, false accusations, and lack of support."

The difference between then and now is there was an organization here and there where this was true and a person could get out and still find a saner place where they could contribute; now this condition exists across the entire strata of American society and there is no escaping it except by going Galt.

The BS for small business people was bad but still tolerable until recently. I think a line has been crossed where significant numbers of people can no longer tolerate it.

I'm hearing from people today that the people they are talking to are wired, galvanized and have had enough. Groups of people talking loudly who are outraged. The workplace above had that 15 years ago but it has infected the country as a whole, so far as I can tell.

Well if the state exchange can funtion we will just have to see but of course not all fish heads are in the swamp.
We are crossing those bridges also Higg in the market since indeed we see it and will just get there in due time.
Hope springs eternal on another turning to borrow the phrase. As the local state reps gets calls and has to explain
we are not the senate with the check book guy. Impossible to fix that problem with public education we have to date
indeed. Always some who need simple redirects on the affairs and words.
The word economics can be traced back to the Greek word oikonomos, "one who manages a household," derived from oikos,
"house," and nemein, "to manage."

I hear one fourth of the taxpayer do not even want a connection and a box. Cannot blame them really at times.

I was checking some 2009 press on what, why, and who so really same as it ever was circle.

I've been accumulating more GDX and GDXJ the past few days.

I will post my watch list later but trim it as not to clutter up things to bad in that basket view.
I think you caught the belly on it indeed. I sort it bottum up with price and stop at 10
I noted a delay of two day so more than not now it is pencil on paper for obvious reasons.
If it has a j14 jack nothing is on it important since 1993 anyway.
Also wait a month or two in beehive smashes from the syndicant analyst on the FCF targets
and the < ~5. free float query checks on basket sweeps since latency grabs are rather plain to see
also. Any one who think analog is toast.

interesting view here on the cousins http://www.thebureauinvestigates.com/20 ... omes-axed/
