Crunch Time

Greetings good citizen,

The destruction of our civilization proceeds apace, just in case you were wondering.

Not that you’d be able to tell this from the ‘reflective of nothing’ stock markets…which, most bizarrely, are ‘up’. Must have something to do with that ‘fatal myopia’ that nobody’s doing anything about.

Not only are they freakishly short-sighted but they have a nasty case of ‘tunnel vision’ to boot!

(If the lying corporate owned media is to be believed…but that’s a whole other can of worms, isn’t it.)

Under the category of read this one very carefully Mr. Panzer offers us this mind-bender.

The chief market strategist at U.S. Trust Bank of America Private Wealth Management warned against concluding that the relative outperformance of U.S. stocks last year and recent string of strong U.S. economic data mean the country’s equity markets are “decoupling” from the rest of the world.
 
The U.S. economy may be in decent shape — with strong manufacturing and record exports of more than US$2-trillion in 2011 — but the country is not isolated from what happens in Europe or the rest of the world, Mr. Quinlan said in a note to clients Friday.

“In our view, the ‘decoupling’ chatter is dangerous and misguided, since there are plenty of problems and challenges brewing overseas that will be directly or indirectly channeled back into U.S. financial markets,” he said.

You have to read the whole article to get the gist of it.

Perhaps I should have included the last paragraph of the article to show Mr. Panzer’s point…

But that’s ’fair use’ for you.

Which brings us to another, er, ‘interesting subject’ that I saw floating around the web today.

Apparently some nitwit thought it would be a good idea to submit legislation that essentially revokes our collective ‘freedom of speech’ by imposing Chinese style censorship on the Internet.

One can foresee the double whammy of a Constitutional challenge being slapped down by the Roberts court.

Worse, what do you suppose the odds are that the jellyfish currently in office will refuse to sign it?

Because you can easily see this the same way we in Massachusetts see the seatbelt law, it was voted down four times by a margin of greater than two to one…and we still ended up with a seatbelt law (and no definitive reduction in highway fatalities.)

And let’s not get started on the number of people killed or maimed by fucking ‘airbags’!

Did I mention our society is grossly mismanaged or that the nitwits in charge regularly use the Constitution for toilet paper?

So what are YOU gonna do about it?

Same thing you always do…nothing!

Because YOU’RE not supposed to ‘do’ anything about it…that’s someone else’s job!

And if those people aren’t doing their job then it’s someone else’s job to take care of that…and so on and so forth…until nothing gets done because that person is ‘too high up’ to be touched.

It’s not supposed to work that way but what are you gonna do?

The part that has me scratching my head is where do they keep digging up stooges and chumps to do their bidding? Surely these people must realize they are painting a huge bull’s-eye on themselves (and by extension, their families!)

When the hammer falls, it is going to crush the stooge of the moment flat…and then they’re gonna start hunting down the ones who went before, that should have had the hammer dropped on them…like the nitwit who drafted the legislation that nullifies the rule of law! (AND EVERYONE WHO VOTED IN FAVOR OF IT!)

Which is to opine that it is already ‘too late’ to start worrying if something you say or do is going to get you branded as an ‘Enemy of the State’.

Worse, good citizen, I’d say it’s worse to ‘walk on eggshells’. If somebody tries to stop you from speaking your mind, you should let that son of a bitch have it, right then and there!

This is the real issue good citizen, the stuff revolutions are made of; ‘Are you going to live on your knees or die on your feet?’

It’s crunch time my friends, tomorrow will be too late so you better make up your mind right now just whose side you’re on.

Thanks for letting me inside your head,

Gegner
