Never in our history has the future of our economy

Christmas, a celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ, the only hope for this corrupt and depraved world, is now Xmas or simply a 'Happy Holiday' (a celebration of the true god of many Americans, 'the credit card'). We have allowed a handful of atheists to vilify the only symbol of the hope of Believers, the Cross, to be plucked from war memorials all across this nation; and now the military cemeteries are in their sights. It does not take a college degree to assess the true state of the union and make an educated guess as to where we are headed 'in a hand basket'. 'The crash of 1929 has laid bare many unpleasant truths about the United States. One of the most alarming is that the finance industry has effectively captured our government', says Simon Johnson, a chief economist with the International Monetary Fund in 2007 and 2008. In an article entitled 'The Quiet Coup' in the May, 2009 issue of the Atlantic magazine he (with James Kwak) goes on to say that 'if the IMF's staff could speak freely about the U.S., it would tell us what it tells all countries in this situation: recovery will fail unless we break the financial oligarchy that is blocking essential reform'. Most of the Presidents of this Nation (under God?), with the exception of those who were assassinated, have been pawns in the control of the oligarchical off-shore 'Money Brokers'. (Remember, Kennedy wanted to abolish the Federal Reserve.) It is my belief that the basic plan of 'the powers that be' is to devalue the dollar while simultaneously increasing the size and power of the government. 'The tyranny of a prince in an oligarchy is not so dangerous to the public welfare as the apathy of a citizen in a democracy.' (Charles de Montesquieu) Most of us were gifted with common sense from birth. For example, if we observe dark clouds gathering on the horizon, we can assume there is a storm approaching and we should waste no time in getting prepared. Most Americans are preoccupied with aspects of survival such as working, watching TV four to five hours per day while snacking, playing or watching sports while snacking, watching movies while snacking, vacation, amusement parks and ball parks, all while snacking. 'Ask your doctor if this drug is right for you'! One out of three Americans are obese, uninformed, broke and apathetic. 'What clouds? Those ain't no clouds!' If we do not wake up and recognize our country is being highjacked, the next cloud may be the shape of a mushroom. Many experts say that within two years we will not recognize this country, that the term 'middle class' will cease to exist, and the government will employ one out of six people. The rest will be too broke to do anything about it. Controlling people -- it is all about fear and control. The sad thing is, the ones who really need to read this article are watching TV (excuse me, HDTV) or listening to their iPod. Americans need to turn off Hellavision and get their news from the internet (before the 'powers that be' start controlling it, too) and stop watching the major networks which are owned and operated by the very few who desire to control the masses. You may be asking, 'What can one person like me do about this? By myself? Nothing much! However, you can join the millions on line that are beginning to organize and plan. Patrick Henry said, 'All that is necessary for the triumph of evil in America is for good men to do nothing.' It will not be long before food and water will be more valuable than gold and silver. You might consider stocking up on imperishable dried fruits and vegetables, freeze-dried eggs, butter, cheese, canned meats, flour, rice, beans etc. When there is a natural or man made disaster, the stores will empty out in hours. Buy emergency supplies, flashlights, batteries, a crank radio, hand pump, R.O. type water filter and a good solar sun oven. Prevention is worth a ton of perishable food without electricity. Get ready, for the hour is near. Hosea 4:6 states, 'My people perish for a lack of knowledge.' A storm is gathering. Gather information and start preparing.
