Some days one can’t help but look at the headlines and think of Ayn Rand.

With all the destructive measures by desperate governments from Cyprus to Argentina, it seems sometimes like we’re reading from the pages of her seminal work, Atlas Shrugged.

But what we’re seeing now seems to have far surpassed Atlas Shrugged. We’re definitely into 1984 territory.

We’ve recently learned that the US federal government has (a) secretly tapped the Associated Press’s phone records, and (b) used the nation’s tax authorities to target opposition political groups.

This is the same sort of thing one would expect from Belarus or Azerbaijan. But these sad events are, unfortunately, no longer surprising in the Land of the Free. Nor are they isolated.

Smoking Mirrors | An Ignorance and Denial too Vast to Measure

By Visible

Depending on who you listen to, you might hear pretty much anything and depending on how you are disposed, you might believe almost anything. I am an optimist and I don’t want to change. This sometimes means that I have to accept, dispassionately, the necessity for certain things to happen to certain people because that’s what it’s going to take to wake their asses up, even if that means their asses wind up composted with the dead leaves of a departing age. When I, rarely and occasionally, find myself in the comments section of one website or another, like Bill Maher’s blog, or any number of places, where the great (formerly unwashed) uninformed may gather, to anonymously joust and call each other names, I am… uh… uh; you know; I can usually find whatever word I’m looking for. Usually, I’ve got many words to choose from to say most anything but… when I witness the spectacle of incomprehensible dumbasses, at this point in time… at this point in time, still waxing ignorant of what should have long ago dawned on even household pets… I am left stunned! Aghast! Somehow those words are just not adequate to the needs of what needs be said. Is it possible for people to be so… so fucking stupid, through such a length of telling and damning events, which should long ago have stripped them of their capacity to believe a single thing being said by a single person, in any position of temporal authority in the Israeli occupied United States, Israeli occupied Canada, Australia and many parts of Europe? Yet… yet… on those rare occasions, when I find myself out there in some part of the unreal world, internet wise, I read living, literal truth that there are people, apparently quite a few people, are ever so much more ignorant than there presently exist devices which can measure it. It’s what you would call, ‘off the gauges’.

I know there are people waking up. I hear from them sometimes, when they come around and announce it to me through emails or some way and I hear it from people who tell me about encountering it. I see the traffic increases at my own sites and I definitely see the traffic increases at sites I visit. Yet… yet, I find myself in these comments sections, where some very peculiar breed of replicant humanity appears and makes a lampoon out of itself; for my entertainment? Is it for the purposes of demonstration? These people and… there are quite a number of them, still believe it was Arabs and not Israel (who it actually was) that attacked the U.S. on 9/11. How is it possible that they have not come to some state of wondering or doubt? How can such a level of arrogance and ignorance, couple in such a pornographic conjugation? It’s mind blowing! They are another species, another life form. . Their level of defiant, adamant delusion goes beyond my level of ability to accurately and comprehensively define.

When will Obama say, “I am not a crook”? | Jon Rappoport’s Blog

The upward pressure of ongoing scandals is moving into the White House. Benghazi, AP, IRS.

The president’s surrogates are trying out their lying skills.

Jay Carney: The situation at the IRS isn’t really a scandal, depending on what the definition of “is” is. And if one uses the passive voice, that’s acceptable, as in “mistakes were made.”

Hillary Clinton: It doesn’t matter how and why Americans were killed in Benghazi. They died. We’re alive. We move on.

Steven Miller, retiring/ousted head of the IRS: We gave bad customer service. Who at the IRS is guilty? I asked someone and they told me, but I don’t remember what they said.

Eric Holder: If something bad happened at my agency in relation to spying on AP reporters, I don’t know what it is, because I’ve recused myself. Other people under me are investigating the whole thing. I don’t know who these investigators are. I have to remain ignorant, in order to be objective.

Preschool threatens to dismiss worker for lunch food choice | More Local News – KITV Home

HONOLULU —When Carissa Lee O’Connell’s husband Rick began preparing organic home lunches for his wife four months ago, the goal was to improve her severe nasal allergies.

“Instantly the allergies went away, the colds disappeared and it’s all from just eating raw, natural organic food,” Rick O’Connell, 53, told KITV4.

But now Carissa Lee O’Connell, 24, is suffering from another health issue – trouble sleeping. She says her nightly tossing and turning is due to a mandate from KCAA Preschools of Hawaii, where she has worked as a teacher’s aide at the Hawaii Kai campus for the past year.

In April, Lee O’Connell was verbally warned by the preschool to stop eating home lunches in plain view of kids. But last week, the verbal warning was put to paper, stating that if O’Connell continued to defy school administrators, she would be summarily fired.

“Definitely upsetting because I really enjoy being with the kids, having fun and seeing them every day,” said Lee O’Connell. “They’re making me eat my lunch away from everybody else just because my director feels uncomfortable about the situation.”

Inventor Of ADHD’s Deathbed Confession: “ADHD Is A Fictitious Disease”

ADHD HoaxFortunately, the Swiss National Advisory Commission on Biomedical Ethics (NEK, President: Otfried Höffe) critically commented on the use of the ADHD drug Ritalin in its opinion of 22 November 2011 titled Human enhancement by means of pharmacological agents: The consumption of pharmacological agents altered the child’s behavior without any contribution on his or her part.

That amounted to interference in the child’s freedom and personal rights, because pharmacological agents induced behavioral changes but failed to educate the child on how to achieve these behavioral changes independently. The child was thus deprived of an essential learning experience to act autonomously and emphatically which “considerably curtails children’s freedom and impairs their personality development”, the NEK criticized.

The alarmed critics of the Ritalin disaster are now getting support from an entirely different side. The German weekly Der Spiegel quoted in its cover story on 2 February 2012 the US American psychiatrist Leon Eisenberg, born in 1922 as the son of Russian Jewish immigrants, who was the “scientific father of ADHD” and who said at the age of 87, seven months before his death in his last interview: “ADHD is a prime example of a fictitious disease”

Since 1968, however, some 40 years, Leon Eisenberg’s “disease” haunted the diagnostic and statistical manuals, first as “hyperkinetic reaction of childhood”, now called “ADHD”. The use of ADHD medications in Germany rose in only eighteen years from 34 kg (in 1993) to a record of no less than 1760 kg (in 2011) – which is a 51-fold increase in sales! In the United States every tenth boy among ten year-olds already swallows an ADHD medication on a daily basis. With an increasing tendency.

7.1 Million Americans In Prisons So Corporations Can Profit From Your Tax | Blogging/Citizen Journalism

America which is known as the freest country in the world has incarcerated more of it’s citizens than the rest of the world combined. 7.1 million Americans are either in prison, on probation or under correctional supervision. The numbers continue to climb each year as more prisons are built nationwide. News journalist Fareed Zakaria from CNN goes in depth to show viewers how much the American government as well as private corporations spend building prisons apposed to schools.

He goes on to say that our elected officials have been bought out by lobbyist. They want the politicians to pave the way for more prisons by passing more laws of enslavement to insure a steady flow of inmates to occupy the cells. America has entered into a hell like period where people are worth more in prison than free and working as all jobs are being shipped to China. America is being de-industrialized and destroyed by design in the name of clean energy and saving the planet.

Activist Post: Some of the Sheep Are No Longer Asleep

Dave Hodges

Activist Post

The world is finally beginning to wake up to the global tyranny that is threatening all of humanity. In the past two months I have heard from people that I have not heard from or seen for 10-20 years. I have heard from former players, students, friends and neighbors.

Several people contacting out of my distant past may not sound significant, but I had zero expectation of hearing from any of these people again. And all of the contacts were motivated by their concern for the decimation of our Republic and my work towards reversing the trend curve.

Sometimes as I pound away at my keyboard in the middle of the night, I wonder if I am making a difference with regard to awakening the multitude of sheep in this country. Frequently, I have wondered if any of us are making a real difference. Yet, I have met so many gifted morally upstanding people in our Patriot movement. The majority of the people in the alternative media, too many to mention, have talent, charisma, intelligence, education, a love of God and country and are only motivated by the desire to live in a society which is governed by people who want to help their fellow man, not to enslave them.
