A Halloween Story - Read by former Reagan Official

If you're trying to make sense of the scariness of our real world, listen to Charlotte Iserbyt read an account of the Reece Committee, which I've recently highlighted. Mrs. Iserbyt is an authority on the surreptitious hijacking of America's public education system. She names names and mentions specific documents. Mrs. Iserbyt is also notable as having the only known copy of the Reece Committee hearings. The powers that be bought up all of the other copies and had them destroyed. She now offers free downloads on her site, American Deception - so check it out if you're really curious about how your country was taken over and before the usurpers lock down the internet. (It is over 2000 pages broken up into three parts.)

Charlotte also discusses how socialism jumped the ocean and how the collapse of the Soviet Union isn't what you have been led to believe.

Sensitivity Training - Brainwashing our Common Sense Away

It's time for a filmstrip! Who wants to turn it? This little nugget of knowledge was made by G. Edward Griffin in 1969. This is a "vintage" explanation of mass psychology at work. You will learn about sensitivity training and how it is used to create a narcissistic society using Pavlovian conditioning techniques. The description of sensitivity training being so mentally tortuous reminded me of this interview by Charlotte Iserbyt describing the sensitivity training that teachers had to endure. You will also learn about the action-reaction dynamic wherein a problem is created and the elites rush in to solve the problem with a law. Eventually, you get to the point where you live in a police state. Considering that this was made 40 years ago, it truly is prophetic. The rapid moral decline of America over the last 50 years makes perfect since when you analyze who has been in charge of the media and educational system. Regular reader of this blog know who I'm talking about.

Norman Dodds tells of his experience in banking -Awesome interview!

This is the story of Mr. Norman Dodd who began his career in banking during the crash of 1929. Mr. Dodd was an Ivy-leagued educated man and ran up against some very disturbing banking practices. He was told by his superiors at the New York City bank (he describes it as a Morgan bank) that sound banking would never be practiced in America again.

Mr. Dodd later went on to be the chief investigator of the Reece Committee investigations of the 1950s, where he did extensive research on tax exempt foundations (where the banksters hide their money). This interview is fascinating and took place in 1982 shortly before his death.

(You can read all about the Reece Committee at the link under x-files. Warning! researching the Reece Committee and its subject matter is a "red pill"- side effects may include: paradigm shifts in thinking process, justified paranoia, and nervous breakdown)

Seriously, the lawyer working on the Committee, Catherine Casey, who was skeptical of the whole "one world government" people taking over these innocuous-sounding foundations, had a nervous breakdown after reading the minutes of the Carnegie Endowment. (Yes, there were actually woman lawyers before women's lib!)

Other topics touched on by Mr. Dodd are deliberate warfare, control of American education system emphasizing "reteaching American history", giving fellowships selectively to liberal American history doctoral candidates (thereby stocking the future university with people with animosity toward the founders), and the future of our country (from 1950 timeframe) would be collectivism characterized by American efficiency. Watch the whole thing if you think you've got the guts!

The Subversion Process Study

In case you missed a part of my series blogging Yuri Bezmenov's Love Letter to America, I have for your convenience a listing of those posts along with visual aids!
First, the Subversion Chart, an outline of our study:

Stage 1: Demoralization

Demoralization of Ideas -  Religion and Politicization

Demoralization of Ideas - Commercializing Religion merges with Show-Time Religion

Demoralization of Ideas - Education

Demoralization of Ideas - Media

Demoralization of Ideas - Mass Culture

Demoralization of Structures - Social Relations

Demoralization of Structures - Internal Politics

Demoralization of Structures - Foreign Policy

Demoralization of Everyday Life - Family Breakup

Demoralization of Everyday Life - Health

Demoralization of Everyday Life - Race

Stage 3: Crisis
The Third Stage of Subversion

Stage 4: Normalization
The Final Stage of Subversion

Here is the famous interview with G. Edward Griffin, where Yuri explains how he implemented subversion as a propaganda expert in the KGB:




I can't get full-length Google Vid to embed, so here is the link in case you want to watch it like a movie.


Here is a more in-depth lecture by Mr. Bezmenov at UCLA. The last part is the best part!





Bonus Bezmenov:





Remember that even though the Soviet Union is gone, the principle of subversion remains, along with the financial powers that backed the Soviet Union to begin with. Remember what Rowan Gaither of the Ford Foundation told the Reece Committee:

"We operate here under directives which emanate from the White House...
The substance of the directives under which we operate is that we shall
use our grant making power to alter life in the United States such that
we can comfortably be merged with the Soviet Union."

With the collapse of the dollar, can you not see how it could be arranged that the one-world government as predicted in the Bible will become necessary to maintain order? The point of this post is showing how the infiltration of a country is an almost scientific operation, carried out in a series of steps. The whole point of demoralization, as Yuri says is to get your target nation so confused so that the population cannot come to a rational conclusion about anything. Do your own diligence to try to cut through all the propaganda you're being fed. Don't ever say something is too far out there to be investigated. If you tried to explain to a child how our country is 14 trillion dollars in debt and the government won't stop spending, they'd say, "no way! that's too far out there!"

Here's another great quote to get you thinking from the only man who was ever allowed to read the minutes of the first CFR meetings, Carroll Quigley:

In 1891, [Cecile] Rhodes organized a secret society with members in a "Circle of Initiates" and an outer circle known as the "Association of Helpers" later organized as the Round Table organization. In 1909-1913, they organized semi-secret groups known as Round Table Groups in the chief British dependencies and the United States. In 1919, they founded the Royal Institute of International Affairs. Similar Institutes of International Affairs were established in the chief British dominions and the United States where it is known as the Council on Foreign Relations. After 1925, the Institute of Pacific Relations was set up in twelve Pacific area countries. They were constantly harping on the lessons to be learned from the failure of the American Revolution and the success of the Canadian federation of 1867 and hoped to federate the various parts of the empire and then confederate the whole with the United Kingdom. ... There does exist and has existed for a generation, an international Anglophile network which operates to some extent in the way the Radical Right believes the Communists act. In fact, this network, which we may identify as the Round Table Groups, has no aversion to cooperating with the Communists, or any other groups, and frequently does so. I know of the operations of this network because I have studied it for twenty years and was permitted for two years, in the early 1960s, to examine its papers and secret records. I have no aversion to it or to most of its aims and have, for much of my life, been close to it and to many of its instruments. I have objected, both in the past and recently, to a few of its policies but in general my chief difference of opinion is that it wishes to remain unknown, and I believe its role in history is significant enough to be known.

Tennessee Governor's Race - Who You Should Vote For

The independent conservatives of Tennessee have been in a real funk since the primaries. The machine got their people in, so here we go again with the RINOs. I'll just focus on the Governor's Race for the moment:

So what have we got here? We have two wealthy daddy's boys who have almost identical political positions. There is no lesser of two evils in this race - the evils are totally equivalent. Let's get into it:

Bill Haslam-R

Now I'm not going to say that Mr. Haslam isn't a nice guy. He's probably a super-nice guy. But that's not a qualification to be governor in the perilous times we're living in. As a mom, I want to know how my governor is going to protect my family from the federal government. If the Department of Homeland Security morphs into the Stasi, will he stand up to the feds? If the dollar collapses and all heck breaks loose, what's his plan? Does this guy have Andrew Jackson-sized nads to stand up against what's coming? He brags that he won reelection as Knoxville mayor with 86% of the vote, but that's 'cause ain't nobody got enough money to run against him.


2nd Amendment - Haslam churned up controversy by belonging to Michael Bloomberg's "Mayors Against Illegal Guns" group, which he quit in 2009 and shelled out the big bucks in order to call himself a "life member" of the NRA. This shows me that this man doesn't really get what the 2nd amendment is all about - protecting ourselves from tyranny. With a stoke of a pen, politicians can decide which guns are now illegal. That's not what they mean! Yeah, but if you don't see where it's all headed, you're not thinking it through.

10th Amendment - In a debate on May 23rd, Mayor Haslam said he did not feel that one governor could stand up for the 10th Amendment -the one that guarantees individual rights. He says it would take a group of governors and congressmen to do so. To date, Mayor Haslam has not signed the 10th Amendment 10-4 pledge. This attitude displays a lack of conviction and fortitude when it comes to the rights of individual Tennesseans. This is not what we need right now in a state-wide leader.

Education- He differs here from his competitor McWherter, who wants to expand Pre-K from at-risk kids to all kids. Haslam prefers to leave pre-K as it is now. He supports Tennessee in Race to the Top Trough. He will never, ever support the decentralization of public schools that is necessary to bring about true reform, much less taking them out the of the federal system.

Pro-Life- He says he's pro-life, but he is not totally against state-funding of Planned Parenthood for birth control, whereas Ramsey and Wamp were. Watch his pathetic performance on that here.

Globalism- He allowed Knoxville to become a member of the International Council for Local Environmental Initiatives (ICLEI). This is a United Nations sponsored organization that uses environmentalism as a backdoor to local control. When asked about it, he just minimizes it, showing that he either doesn't understand what is going on in the world today, or just doesn't care. For more information on why you should care, please check out this free, down-loadable pamphlet.


Red Light Cameras- Under Haslam's leadership, Big Brother red light cameras were introduced to Knoxville. I hate red light cameras, as they will give you a ticket when you turn right on red, unless you stop for a full five seconds to allow yourself to be recorded.  Next step, speed cameras, then onto constant surveillance filed as evidence for whatever "they" need.

Mike McWherter-D

The son of former governor Ned McWherter, Mike built up his own beer distribution business. As a democrat, McWherter is supported by the usual suspects: teacher unions, regular unions, the abortion lobby, and all those fun people we associate with Democrats. Mike keeps his democratic leanings Tennessee-friendly by swearing he will never push for an income tax, promising he will find ways to make it easier to be a small businessman in Tennessee. However, he said that Obamacare is the "law of the land", so you can bet he's not going to do anything whatsoever to stand up to it.

"McWherter said several attorneys general from other states will probably follow through on a threat to take the federal government to court. But he termed the legal action ‘grandstanding.’ ‘I don’t encourage us getting involved in the middle of that.’” (“McWherter Steps up Governor’s Race Efforts,” Memphis Daily News, 05/07/10)

“‘But the bottom line is that law has passed now. So, what we need is a governor with the business skills to make sure that we know how to implement what does come out of Washington,’ he said. “The reality of it is, it does not fully implement for four years. I’ll be running for re-election possibly by the time this really becomes an issue.’” (“McWherter Steps up Governor’s Race Efforts,” Memphis Daily News, 05/07/10)

Before you say, oh well, then I guess I will have to vote for Haslam -know that his sentiment is probably not very different.  He has been endorsed by socialized medicine mastermind Mitt Romney of Romneycare fame. On his website, he says he will fight unfunded mandates, which is what McWherter says in the interview he gave to the Memphis Daily News:

.  ‘I’m going to work with our congressional delegation to make sure we improve this legislation and make it something that will help … and not burden our Tennessee taxpayers.’

Bill Haslam's health care portion of his website goes on to list preventative care and how government can best be used to reduce obesity and diabetes, as if that was a government responsibility.

Haslam or McWherter?

My point here is that it is either Kang or Chang. A vote for either is not going to change anything. If you think that Bill Haslam is going to stand up for you in any meaningful way, you are being suckered. The man is being mentored by the likes of Howard Baker, CFR member and all-round elite. After Don "let's have a state income tax" Sunquist, Al "the sky is falling" Gore, Lamar "let's turn our education system totally Soviet" Alexander, Bob "don't audit the fed" Corker, etc, let's get real, ya'll. Let's be bold people, let's do something so totally different that the machine that obviously runs this state will be completely gobsmacked.

Brandon Dodds for Governor!

If you are so inclined to help Mr. Dodds and have more free time (and fewer kids) than myself, I understand that his campaign has flyers to be handed out. Contact his campaign at Dodds for Gov. 

Unlike Bill Haslam, who broke the spending record for a primary in Tennessee, Brandon Dodds is a real conservative who is wise the the treats of the UN in Tennessee. You know, like how they're resettling Muslim refugees in Middle Tennessee with out the approval of our federal or state governments. Haslam is totally clueless about this, whereas Mr. Dodds is student of foreign policy. Unlike the other two candidates, Mr. Dodds put himself through school to become an optometrist. Check out his bio and you will see that he is a real Tennessean through and through. Remember that Haslam did not win the majority of the Republican vote in the primary and that scores of democrats used our open primary system to vote for him. There are many disgruntled conservatives out there who cannot stomach the thought of either of these men becoming governor. There is too much at stake in the times we're living in to keep playing the "lesser of two evils" game. The outcome of that thinking is eventually ending up with evil of some sort. Now is the time to reverse that trend. Are you slave to party politics, or can you break out of that paradigm and do something bold and independent?

You can make a difference. Show them that there are still some Tennesseans who don't suckle at the government teats. Show them that Tennesseans are tired of centralized planning, social control/manipulation, and globalism.  I could tell by a quick google search, that many are trying to find info on where Haslam stands and just can't get their questions answered. I hope this post is informative for those wondering whom to vote  for.

Normalization - The Final Stage of Subversion

Continuing from last time, we conclude our journey through the subversion chart. I'll be planning a recap for those who'd like all this information in one place.

Any normal nation would definitely resist such a 'progressive change.’ As I have just described. And according to the 'classics or Marxism-Leninism' there will arise pockets of resistance, shortly after the takeover consisting of the 'enemy classes and counter-revolutionaries' who will physically resist the new system. Some Americans may take to arms and flee to the mountains (as in Afghanistan). Reforms (or DESTRUCTION to be more accurate) of the security agencies, (police and military) by the new government may lead to a situation of ‘split loyalties’ among law enforcement officers and render the majority of the population defenseless. At this point, to avoid 'the bloodshed,’ the subverter moves to NORMALIZATION, a term borrowed from the Soviet propaganda of 1968-- from the time of the Soviet 'fraternal' invasion of Czechoslovakia. Comrade Brezhnev called that 'NORMALIZATION.’ And he was right: the vanquished country was brought BY FORCE into the NORMAL state of SOCIALISM: namely, subjugation.

Bringing this down to our present situation in America where its us against the global banking interests that control our government, (If you follow the money, this is the conclusion most come to.) we see we have a Tea Party movement complete with a heady reminder of our second amendment rights. Some of the hard-core patriot-types, like Chuck Baldwin (who's #1 on the SPLC's enemies list - Congrats Chuck! You've gotta be doing something right!), have been moving to the mountain states to centralize a 10th amendment-loving group of people to organize and make a stand. Not militarily, of course, kind of like the New Hampshire Free State Project. The next biggest item that Yuri mentions is "reforms" in our police and military. One could make an excellent argument that the Drug War has had the effect of militarizing the police over actions that one hundred years ago were not illegal. Check out this excellent post at the Classic Liberal about the "drug war".

When the police are shooting military vets with MBAs in public and pregnant women in their own bedrooms, the war is not on drugs. It is on the American people. -- Vox Day

The MIAC report, which came from the Missouri Information Assessment Center and is affiliated with the Department of Homeland Security, tells Missouri Troopers to be on the lookout for third party candidate bumper stickers, Ron Paul supporters, Constitutionalists, opponents of the North American Union, people with Gadsen flags, etc. These are all potential signs of violent militia members. A 2009 DHS report echoed these criteria for identifying right-wing terrorism. Now we have the extremist left Southern Poverty Law Center teaming up with Homeland Security to help them identify extremists that are probable domestic terrorists. Yes, the T-word that can get you thrown in an unknown clink according to the Patriot Act. The officers and enlisted who could be torn between following orders and following their oath, causing the public not knowing who in authority to trust.

This is when my dear friends, you will start seeing 'friendly' Soviet soldiers in the streets of our cities working together with American soldiers and the 'new' police force to 'restore law and order.’ Very soon your yesterday's American socialist radicals and 'do-gooders’ who were working so hard to bring 'progress' to their own country will find themselves IN PRISONS and hastily-built concentration camps. Many of them will be EXECUTED, quietly or publicly. Why? Simple: the Soviet 'liberators' will have no further use for the 'disturbers.’ The 'useful idiots' will have completed their work. From then on the New Order will need STABILITY and NEW MORALITY. No more 'grass roots' movements. No more criticism of the State. The Press will obediently censor itself. In fact, this censorship is already existing NOW, imposed by the so-called U.S. 'liberals' and socialist do-gooders.

One could replace the Soviet soldiers with UN "peacekeepers". Are you aware that foreign troops have been training alongside American troops all over the country? They call these military exchanges, but lately they seem to be heavily practicing of disarming people by force and containing them. They're training for that always looming terrorist attack. Remember, useful idiots, in the end you are always eliminated. But you still go along despite the fact we have the last 100 years of history documenting what happens to people on your level. But hey, that's why you're called an idiot. Just to remind everyone that where there is no fear of God, anything goes -might makes right.  The Bible also tells us that the time will come that because iniquity abounds, the love of many shall wax cold. The desensitization of our country to cruelty and unrighteousness has ultimately led us to this point.

You will now have the opportunity to 'enjoy' exactly the same life as the Vietnamese, Cambodians, Angolans and Nicaraguans, betrayed by [?] you enjoy NOW. This state of social 'NORMALIZATION' may last forever, that is-- your life-time and life-times of your children and grandchildren...

Great.

IT WILL NEVER HAPPEN HERE!
What if it does happen here? Why take chances? What are the SOLUTIONS? There are different solutions for different stages of subversion. If a nation has enough common sense to STOP subversion at the very beginning of the DEMORALIZATION stage, you may never need the painful and drastic solutions needed to deal with the CRISIS stage.

The most general solution I can offer-- for the whole process of SUBVERSION-- is to STOP AIDING THE SUBVERTER. You are still living in a free society and you are able to force your elected politicians to change their policies toward the Communist world if you so choose. But if YOU, personally do not see anything wrong in dealing with the Communists and HELPING them in their global expansion, I feel that you should begin learning more about the reality of the Communist/ Socialist situation, not from your monopolized media, but from the independent media and press who have no vested interest in making out the Soviet Union to be the 'good guys,’ and from people like myself, who have experienced Communism first-hand for many years. There are numerous American patriotic groups and organizations who are well informed and who already have many SOLUTIONS, to combat the damage done by ideological subversion, some of which are as good or even better than mine. Seek these groups, join them and DO something.

As I said before, Homeland already has their eye out for patriotic groups, like Oathkeepers. A couple in New Hampshire recently had their newborn baby ripped away from them based on previous allegations of misconduct, the fact the parents are gun-owners, and the dad belongs to Oathkeepers. So our government is literally attacking those who want to show the utmost commitment to honoring their oath to defend their country as some sort of evil thing. The Bible told us this day would come when good would be called evil and evil be called good. By reading this blog and others like it, you are also following Yuri's advice by getting plugged into independent media. They are loosing their grip on information and they are terrified, thus the vilification of those who don't support the globalist bankers scams like global warming and the subsequent carbon taxes, TARP, Obamacare, the Federal Reserve and fiat currency, public education though control, among others. So we need to heed the words of Yuri, who has studied how subversion happens. After all, his own Soviet Union was designed by and paid for the same people who are doing it to us.

This booklet is my love letter to America. I did not write it to frighten or threaten the nation that I love for its freedom, its principles, its ideals. But if you were walking across the street with a friend and saw a car barreling down upon you both that your friend did not see, would you say nothing to your friend and move out of the way, leaving him to be hit? Of course not and I do not intend to do that to you.

In my next booklet, I will cover the full solutions to the problem of ideological subversion. I sincerely hope you will be reading it.

Love,
Tomas Schuman aka Yuri Bezmenov

If I can find more Yuri books, I will be blogging them also. As always, these quotations come from Mr. Bezmenov's booklet Love Letter to America via Useless Dissident.

Government is Coming for your Family Farm - S. 510

Update: Welcome News Real Blog readers!
I invite you to look around and check out some of my investigations. There is no following the typical news cycle here!


Using the salmonella egg recall as a pretext, our paternal federal government is attempting to regulate family farms out of existence. Despite the fact that most, if not all, safety issues with food come from big producers. This bill cracks down on roadside stands, and may  will open the door to regulating farmer's markets. There is no debate on who our federal government supports in our food production - big business.

So what traitors are behind this bill? Let's start with the co-sponsors (courtesy of Govtrack):
Dick Durbin - Sponsor
Co -Sponsors - a bipartisan bunch: (This info is from when it was introduced nearly a year ago)

Lamar Alexander [R-TN] -grrr! Jeff Bingaman [D-NM] Richard Burr [R-NC] Roland Burris [D-IL] Robert Casey [D-PA] Saxby Chambliss [R-GA]

Christopher Dodd [D-CT] Michael Enzi [R-WY] Kirsten Gillibrand [D-NY] Judd Gregg [R-NH] Thomas Harkin [D-IA] Orrin Hatch [R-UT]

John Isakson [R-GA] Edward Kaufman [D-DE] Edward Kennedy [D-MA] Amy Klobuchar [D-MN] Robert Menéndez [D-NJ] Ben Nelson [D-NE]  Tom Udall [D-NM] David Vitter [R-LA]

What organizations support a bill like this?

Carolina Farm Stewardship Association

This illustrates the battle lines between large agricultural corporations and food processors and local family farms. They've took over health care, complete with death panels, they're destroying small businesses with excessive taxation and regulation - do you think there's an area that they're going to neglect? (They refers to our criminal government who ceased being bothered about the Constitution long ago.) It is a documented fact that the globalists read: international banksters are all about controlling us with food. Mao's Great Leap Forward used the control of food as a weapon to starve tens of millions of Chinese. It's been done before, and if Federal agents drawing guns on Amish farmers who dare to sell their raw milk to willing consumers doesn't scare the holy moly out of you, you're not paying attention. Note the following stories:

Raids are increasing on farms and private food-supply clubs

Want raw milk? Get a farm -hire a lawyer.

Federal Agents Raid Amish Farm over Raw Milk

Rawesome Food Coop Raided by a Variety of Officials

Georgia Man's Garden too Big - Gov. uses "regulation" to control

I'm sure there are many other examples of organic and raw food producers out there who have been intimidated, fined, or regulated out of business. I don't want to get into a big discussion about whether raw milk/honey is good or bad. These people are not trying to trick anyone into drinking raw milk. I know raw milk can be a problem for some because cows and goats have bacteria in their digestive tract that helps keep them healthy. These same bacteria can make the uninitiated get a stomach-virus type illness. However, some feel that the bacteria in raw milk is healthful and that the high temperatures of pasteurization denaturate the proteins in the milk. In any case, there is a free-market demand for raw products, thus there is a market to meet that demand. The federal government is actively trying to destroy this market through this bill. Under this bill, the FDA will have full oversight of people making homemade jelly to sell at their local fair. The FDA will have all sorts of fun paperwork in store for those who aren't part of the approved food supply chain as shown here:

Notice the obligatory Council on Foreign Relations node in the center, sitting there like a spider. Thrown in for good measure is the Trilateral Commission, which is an even more elite global group. Think I'm being paranoid? I wish I was, but check out these statements from halls of history when it comes to government and food:

From the Russian Archives:

The dreadful famine that engulfed Ukraine, the northern Caucasus, and the lower Volga River area in 1932-1933 was the result of Joseph Stalin's policy of forced collectivization. The heaviest losses occurred in Ukraine, which had been the most productive agricultural area of the Soviet Union. Stalin was determined to crush all vestiges of Ukrainian nationalism. Thus, the famine was accompanied by a devastating purge of the Ukrainian intelligentsia and the Ukrainian Communist party itself. The famine broke the peasants' will to resist collectivization and left Ukraine politically, socially, and psychologically traumatized.

From Frank Dikötter, author of Mao’s Great Famine:

Thanks to the often meticulous reports compiled by the party itself, we can infer that between 1958 to 1962, by a rough approximation 6 to 8 per cent of those who died prematurely were tortured to death or summarily executed - amounting to at least 2.5 million people. Many other victims were deliberately deprived of food and starved to death. Even more vanished because they were too old, weak or sick to work - and hence unable to earn their keep. People were killed selectively because they were rich, because they dragged their feet, because they spoke out or simply because they were not liked, for whatever reason, by the man who wielded the ladle in the canteen. Countless people were killed indirectly through neglect, as local cadres were under pressure to focus on figures rather than on people, making sure they fulfilled the targets they were handed by the top planners.

A vision of promised abundance not only motivated one of the most deadly mass killings of human history, but also inflicted unprecedented damage on agriculture, trade, industry and transportation. Livestock declined precipitously, not only because animals were slaughtered for the export market but also because they succumbed en masse to disease and hunger - despite extravagant schemes for giant piggeries that would bring meat to every table. As everyone cut corners in the relentless pursuit of higher output, factories spewed out shoddy goods that accumulated uncollected by railway sidings. The transportation system creaked to a halt before collapsing altogether, unable to cope with the demands created by a command economy. It would have been difficult to design a more wasteful system, one in which grain rotted uncollected by dusty roads in the countryside  as people foraged for food or ate mud.

Over 84 million people died during the reign of Mao, a large percentage died between the years of  1958 and 1962, most of them by starvation. Yet Obama and his ilk put this guys face on their "holiday" ornaments.

From an old Newsmax article:

Shortly after World War II, a U.S. congressional committee investigated the Nazi Holocaust and found that starvation was the main instrument of torture in the concentration camps.
The Committee notes the prisoners' daily diet "consisted generally of about one-half of a pound of black bread per day and a bowl of watery soup for noon and night, and not always that."
The report continued: "Notwithstanding the deliberate starvation program inflicted upon these prisoners by lack of adequate food, we found no evidence that the people of Germany as a whole were suffering from any lack of sufficient food or clothing. The contrast was so striking that the only conclusion which we could reach was that the starvation of the inmates of these camps was deliberate."

Don't worry, I'm sure all of these starving people experienced a sense of "euphoria" and "slipped into a peaceful coma." That's why some of them were resorting to cannibalism, they just couldn't contain their euphoria. Rest in Peace, Terri Shiavo, the government's first test case of starving an invalid.

From the Economic Collapse, the top 12 reason why this bill is a tyrannical takeover of our food supply:

#1 All food production facilities in the United States will be required to register with the U.S. government.   No food will be allowed to be grown, distributed or sold outside this bureaucratic framework unless the FDA allows it.

#2 Any food that is distributed or sold outside of U.S. government control will be considered illegal smuggling.

#3 The FDA will hire an army of new inspectors to enforce all of the new provisions in the bill.

#4 The FDA will be mandated to conduct much more frequent inspections of food processing facilities.   

#5 The fees and paperwork requirements will be ruinously expensive for small food producers and organic farms.

#6 S. 510 would place all U.S. food and all U.S. farms under the Department of Homeland Security in the event of a major "contamination" or an "emergency".  What exactly would constitute a "contamination" or an "emergency" is anyone's guess.

#7 S. 510 mandates that the FDA facilitate harmonization of American food laws with Codex Alimentarius. (outlaws over the counter vitamins and supplements - I posted on how the Carlyle Group recently bought up the company that makes cheap vitamins for WalMart and Target.) 

#8 S. 510 imposes an annual registration fee on any facility that holds, processes, or manufactures food.  It also includes draconian fines for paperwork infractions of up to $500,000 for a single offense.  Just one penalty like that would drive a small food producer out of business.

#9 S. 510 would give the FDA tremendous discretion to regulate how crops are grown and how food is produced in the United States.  Basically, small farmers and organic farmers will now be forced to farm exactly how the federal government tells them to.  It is feared that the U.S. government would soon declare that many organic farming methods are "unsafe" and would outlaw them.  In addition, there is the very real possibility that at some point the U.S. government could decide that the only "safe" seed for a particular crop is genetically modified seed and would require all farmers to use it.

#10 S. 510 will give the FDA the power to impose a quarantine on a specific geographic area.  Basically the FDA would have the power to stop the movement of all food in an area where a "contamination" has been identified.  This would be very close to being able to declare martial law.

#11 S. 510 will give the FDA the power to conduct warrantless searches of the business records of small food producers and organic farmers, even if there has been no evidence at all that a law has been broken. 

#12 Opponents of S. 510 believe that it would eliminate the right to clean and store seed.  Therefore, control of the U.S. seed supply would be further centralized in the hands of Monsanto and other multinational corporations.

So if you've ever wondered how millions of people could be taken over by just a relative handful of people, here is your answer. Whoever controls your food, can control you. Call your senators and tell them to oppose S. 510 for what it's worth.
