Taxes

taxes are a cudgel used against the populace to monitor and control them.

Where does the money we pay in taxes go? To pay interest on money we borrowed to supposedly run this country (really, to line bankers' pockets), and to line the pockets of people in military and the government.

What remains is thrown at fat, sick old people who did not bother taking care of themselves when they were younger, welfare moms who hate men, programming the children to mindlessly accept an evil new world order, and weapons systems to destroy the rest of the world illegally, while our OWN border remains wide open.

They certainly do NOT go to pay to fix the roads and bridges. Here in Houston the roads look bombed out. IN THE ENERGY CAPITAL OF THE PLANET!

to change subject:

Has anyone noticed that one party during each presidential election has an enthusiastic candidate and the other a lacksadaisical candidate who seems like he'd rather be watching a football game?

Not only are both parties two sides of the same corrupt coin, controlled by the internationalist bankers, but worse yet, we are being steered toward one of the two remaining candidates. WHAT SORT OF CHOICE IS THAT???

So Bush was needed in 00 and 04 to implement the fascist portion of the police state. Him going after people's guns would have been implausible. During these 00 and 04 selections, Gore and Kerry acted wooden and distracted.

NOW, in 08, Obama is the saviour and McCain acts like he wishes he was in bed. Obama is of course needed now to implement the socialist/communist portion of the plan, getting rid of the private guns, increasing taxes, etc.

The last LEGITIMATE SEEMING election was apparently 1992, when not only did we have the two parties, but we also had Perot thrown into the mix. COULDN'T HAVE ACTUAL CHOICE NOW COULD WE??? They sure fixed THAT problem for us.

Humanity is too dumb to read the tea leaves. No wonder tragedies like this keep repeating themselves.

The US is dead. It has been replaced with an unreasonable facsimile that is a joke.

But then the people are a joke. Who else would have let KNOWN criminals have their way with our government for eight years?

OF course

when I say 'break women', of course I mean metaphorically.

Anyone who has read my past posts would know I adore women, but I do not think the American culture is amenable to understanding between men and women and it is getting worse, a situation almost completely driven by modern liberal feminism. I am passionate about this topic, I understand and have my own theories on it, I think this gender impasse is largely due to a lack of HONEST communication. So, in my mind, it is critical that I help promote a movement in society that allows for men and women to reach a new understanding and for women to begin RESPECTING MEN.

I certainly hate to be considered despicable or sniffed at by women. But today, most men are treated this way most of the time EVEN WHEN THEY ARE NOT DOING ANYTHING.

It was eye opening for me-- for the first time, the other day I watched the VH1 show about training men to be players. First of all, I was surprised how sweet the guys were. Second, I was midly offended and bothered by the premise, EVEN THOUGH I AM A GUY and one who believes in men having tools to gain social parity with women. But what shocked and bothered me the most was how completely rude, heartless, fickle, and insulting the women in the bars were towards these guys, who were merely trying to strike up a conversation. The absolutely unforgivable behavior of these women drove home just how much of a DISADVANTAGE normal, average men have when it comes to them fulfilling their need for love and affirmation. It is no wonder the SKILLED players get all the love and affection from women in this society. It is no wonder the women think ALL guys are like the players (5-10% of all men out there?) they associate with.

It broke my heart a bit. It also steeled me to the need for me and for likeminded men to continue to drive home in the public sphere the key points that women and feminism need to be countered with logic and truth by men until the feminists understand the underlying dynamics of what is really going on and where they need to step in to help men IF MEN ARE TO CONTINUE TO RETURN THE FAVOR OF SUPPORTING FEMINISM in any manner.

I am just the messenger. As Christine (Puerto Rican AND Irish??... dreamy) says, I am expressing a message many men believe if only they had the tools to communicate their thoughts and had spent a lot of time thinking things through (and were not intimidated by feminists into shutting up).

This is why the messages I communicate have such power.
