The Rabbit Hole

I am not sure that both started at the same point in time, but there are arguments to made that the two aren’t mutually exclusive. Looking at this from a historical lens in regards to American history with banks, I believe it started with Lincoln. When Lincoln tried to finance the Civil war he was denied loans from all the European banks who sought to divide and weaken America at the time. Remember, there was no central banking system in America at the time. So Lincoln in order to fiance the war introduced the “Greenback” which was currency issued by the federal government that was debt free. Not only did Lincoln financed the war effort, but the economy flourished as a result. It is my belief after the war had been practically won, that Lincoln was assassinated for this reason.

Regardless of what history tells us about John Wilkes Booth, very little is known about his associations and allegiances across the Atlantic, thus much can be speculated as to what role he actually played, what he knew, or if he was just a pawn who was duped by unverified, unsavory agents who played him like a fiddle to carry out the deed in exchange for promises made that took advantage of his ideological bent on restoring Southern sovereignty and winning the war. Thus banks returned shortly after Lincolns death, and by the time the 1870’s arrived, so too did the great recession of that time that allowed banks to limit the money supply in circulation. Farmers and commoners suffered immensely by losing their homes, and becoming destitute as a result. The children’s story book “The Wizard of OZ” written by Frank L Baum, was primarily based on this episode in American history, which was one of the most widely sold books in American history. Frank L Baum himself was greatly affected by this lean period of time and grew a cynical view about the banks and their role in creating such human suffering.

Then came the Federal Reserve, a self-dealing Wall Street banking consortium, instigated December 1913 by California Senator and “progressive” Manhattan lawyer William Gibbs McAdoo, who became Woodrow Wilson’s son-in-law the following year. Following Wilson’s Constitutional Amendments XVI and XVII (national Income tax plus direct election of Senators), any sentient citizen stands appalled at the sheer, willful sabotage of Founders’ classic institutions. Jackson was rolling in his grave with outrage when this happened, and is by far the greatest betrayal in American history that was designed to take away its sovereignty and consolidate it into eventually a NWO type of construct that was envisioned long ago. The rest is history, as the OSS (now the CIA) was created for the purpose to manipulate world wide the interests of the banking institutions. (see operation AJAX as a primary example) and eventually many other secret Intel orgs acting as appendages to the CIA were invented that is now known as the deep state. The introduction of patriot Act followed by 9-11 is one primary example of their ever growing power to operate in secrecy without so much as any accountability to no one.

The case with Kennedy where distinct parallels can be made in relation to Lincoln who sought to change various aspects of our banking institutions are uncanny to say in the least. The CIA at the time was in the drug business, as have been and probably still are to this day. The reason is, they can fiance their operations without leaving a trace of financial accounting. From the heroin markets of Vietnam to the poppy fields of Afghanistan its no coincidence our conflicts has another hidden agenda where these drugs can be found in the regions of the world where we are sending our troops to die for. Also it is not uncommon for CIA operatives to use organized crime figures to carry out hits and other nefarious activities either, due to the fact they can take the blame and create a narrative within the news media of mafia being responsible when something bad happens. Remember Bobby Kennedy as the AG going after the most powerful crime boss Marcello of New Orleans? He deported him to Guatemala, and Marcello wasn’t one to forget, hence Bobby was eventually killed too. Although much speculation was made in connection to the Mafia, but when looking at this it is not that hard to create a plausible narrative of how these actors all played a role for the very powerful who have unlimited resources to influence outcomes and elections for that matter. Why is Soros still running around free is another good question for the modern age?

Globalism came into prominence with the systematic purge and deregulation of Wall Street policies that took place over a period of 30 years that eventually lead up to the 2008 financial crisis. Some key policies such as the repeal of the Glass Steagall act in order to allow an illegal merger like Travelers group under the Clinton Admin to consummate is just one of many that contributed to the start of “Globalism and the realignment of financial priorities by the elite class.”

Just look at this video with Reagan and it’s revealing who is really calling the shots.

Everything else we were taught to believe is chaff and countermeasures to keep the hounds off the trail.

Like you said, the victors get to write history, the rest is just fodder to be consumed by mass culture.

No medical doctor. Although in my evolution of living I probably should have chosen to go into medicine if I had to do it all over again.

I do like the fuel-cell idea as an alternative to battery powered electric motors. I just don’t know a lot about them and it hasn’t really gotten the attention as electric motors have in recent times.

…which is kind-of odd (the Fuel cell aspect) considering the great use to which they were put by NASA in the Apollo program, and presumably every long-term space exploration project since.

Hey! You have your own Diane Abbott !!

Yes you are correct. A lot of great innovations came from NASA, and is one reason why I contribute regularly to the agency.

It remains to be seen what will emerge as the dominant technology as Oil, and fossil fuels become more scarce, but my hope that this one in particular emerges for the consumer market, and one that will be the choice going forward. From what I have read, it does offer a lot of promise in terms of clean, affordable and safe alternative. Another source of fuel that I think has a lot of promise is algae and oil derived from it. The Military (particularly the b-52 base in Minot ND) uses this in some of their planes that were retro fitted to use as an alternative fuel for testing. I am not sure where the technology is in regards to algae but it does show promise too as a clean burning fuel alternative.

Not yet! She only won her primary. She still has to face off against the Republican in the general election. The Democrats right now are beginning to distance themselves from her due to her extreme views in supporting socialism. It remains to be seen what is going to happen from now and until November, but I guess more parodies like these will surface to make fun of her lack of knowledge as a way to attack her. She was already caught in a lie when she claimed that she comes from Brooklyn when in fact she was raised as a privileged girl in York Town Heights (an affluent suburb of New York City (Weschester county). I think she is only 28 years old and has much to learn about being in politics. Hopefully the Republican running against her will expose her in the upcoming debates and voters will think twice about voting for her. Then again, she is representing a district of New York who generally are clueless when it comes to general elections, and are taught to just hate Republicans in general without regard to knowing the issues, so who knows.

Remember you are talking to a Brit :wink: Look up what the British say and what is actually meant. That is one of the biggest put downs and often said in a supercilious tone.

Jen is absolutely right - "With all Due resppect… " usually means "I don’t respect you at all ! and I am about to say something completely disrespectful ! "

At least in “British” it does !

When I was a lad you could say “With all due respect…” in the hope that you wouldn’t get a slap for the insult you were about to throw ! Sometimes it worked - Sometimes it didn’t and the “insulter” ended up with a bloody nose anyway ! :wink:

Yeah, and clear skies tonight.

Predicting UK weather is like predicting FX, just when you think you have it nailed - it rains.

Yes “they say” it is difficult to forecast weather for a month’s time, but perfectly “scientific” to forecast a 1/2 degree rise in temperature per century when measured from a particularly cold period towards the end of the “Little ice age” as the “Warmists” insist is logical.

Al Gore of course knew all about this when he made “An inconvenient truth” based on spurious conjecture and Michael Mann’s “Hockey stick chart” (produced after the “e-mails” he received saying it would be good if the “Medieval warm period disappeared” - which in his "adjusted chart, it did ! )

The high court judge in uk said of This film that ;

"… he would have made a finding that the Government’s distribution of the film and the first draft of the guidance note earlier in 2007 to all English secondary schools had been "an unlawful contravention of an Act of Parliament prohibiting the political indoctrination of children…"

The judge also accepted the evidence that ;

".…ERROR 4: CO2 “driving temperature”

Gore says that in each of the last four interglacial warm periods it was changes in carbon dioxide concentration that caused changes in temperature.

It was the other way about. Changes in temperature preceded changes in CO2 concentration by between 800 and 2800 years, as scientific papers including the paper on which Gore’s film had relied had made clear.

Ms. Kreider says it is true that “greenhouse gas levels and temperature changes in the ice signals have a complicated relationship but they do fit.” This does not address Gore’s error at all. The judge found that Gore had very clearly implied that it was changes in carbon dioxide concentration that had led to changes in temperature in the palaeoclimate, when the scientific literature is unanimous (save only for a single paper by James Hansen, whom Gore trusts) to the effect that the relationship was in fact the other way about, with a carbon dioxide feedback contributing only a comparatively insignificant further increase to temperature after the temperature change had itself initiated a change in carbon dioxide concentration.

The significance of this error was explained during the court proceedings, and was accepted by the judge. Gore says that the 100 ppmv difference between carbon dioxide concentrations during ice-age temperature minima and interglacial temperature maxima represents “the difference between a nice day and a mile of ice above your head.” This would imply a CO2 effect on temperature about 10 times greater than that regarded as plausible by the consensus of mainstream scientific opinion (see Error 10).

Ms. Kreider refers readers to a “more complete description” available at a website maintained by, among others, two of the three authors of the now-discredited “hockey stick” graph that falsely attempted to abolish the Mediaeval Warm Period. The National Academy of Sciences in the US had found that graph to have “a validation skill not significantly different from zero” – i.e., the graph was useless…"

Note that 300 ppmv sounds like quite a lot when you say "it increased to 400 ppmv " - but it is stated in this form purely as a psychological trigger.

it actually represents 3 parts in 10,000 and is purported to have increased to something under 4 parts in 10,000 - now imagine this greenhouse which khas space for10,000 panes of glass and imagine how much difference, actually placing an extra pane of glass in this derelict roof would make, to increase its warming potential from 3 panes in 10,000 to 4 panes in 10,0000 ! ie 9,996 clear gaps !

So much for 20 foot sea level rises and drowning Pacific Islands !

So much for fraudulent charts and conspiratorial e-mails !

But still “they” bather on about “CO2 = Global Warming” - as though it had some basis in fact, logic or indeed “Common sense” !

It is a huge industry and a great “con trick” (IMHO of course :wink: )
