Overdose: The Next Financial Crisis

The main reason for the prolonged recession in the US is securitization of assets. The banks lent to anybody because they were not carrying the risk - rather it was being passed on to "investors" in the form of stock market funds. Asset bubbles happen all the time - but the government allowed this bubble to be financed by the country's middle class, and now they are paying for it.Putting the well-being of your nation into the hands of a few rich men always leads to corruption and depression.

With the US raising their debt ceiling, are we in a global bail-out bubble that will eventually burst? This doc offers a fresh insight into the greatest economic crisis of our age: the one still awaiting us. The financial storm that has rocked the world began brewing in the US when congress pushed the idea of home ownership for all, propping up those who couldn't make the down payments. When it all went wrong the government promised the biggest financial stimulus packages in history and gargantuan bailouts. But what crazed logic is that: propping up debt with more debt? "They're giving alcohol to a drunk: it just sets him up for a bigger hangover."

Jobs & Wages Crisis in America

Lower-wage employees of the mega-retailer Walmart Stores and fast-food restaurant workers - many of them people of color - are trying to cast a harsh spotlight during the holiday season's twinkling lights on what they say are poor working conditions and scant wages. The biggest wave of job actions in the history of America's fast-food industry began at 6:30 a.m. last Thursday at a McDonald store in New York, with several dozen protesters chanting: "Hey, hey, what do you say? We demand fair pay." ALL of the financial conditions being imposed on the USA have been INTENTIONAL by our very own Globalist Controlled Government. They did the same thing to Argentina & other countries. Once they financially collapse a Nation they go in & buy up everything. THIS is the NEW WORLD ORDER

Fast-food restaurants are part of a $200 billion-dollar industry that pays its CEOs astronomical amounts in salaries, bonuses and stock options. The 2012 compensation for David Novak, CEO of Yum! Brands, which owns Pizza Hut and Taco Bell, was $29.4 million, or over 4,300 times as much as the pay of an average employee. In 2011, after four months on the job, Wendy's CEO Emil Brolick earned $4.6 million. Jim Skinner, McDonald's outgoing CEO, is slated to receive about $10 million by the end of the year. The Fast Food Forward protest comes on top of similar actions at Walmart stores across the country on Black Friday. The Walmart protests were part of an attempt to unionize the company's low-wage workers (who make an average of $8.81 an hour) by United Food and Commercial Workers (UFCW). Extreme social inequality and the rapid increase of poverty have created concern among the upper middle-class layers. The political aim behind the New York fast-food protests, similar to the Walmart protests, is to smother a social explosion before it happens with militant-sounding rhetoric on the one hand and slavish support for the Obama administration on the other.

Lindsey Williams ~ 10 Things the Elite are Planning for you in the Next 4 Years (2013-2016)

"There will never again be an honest election in the United States" according to the elite banker class that has seized control of the US Government, the corporate media, & the military industrial complex. They are planning to seize all private property & wealth, completely wiping out the middle class. Interview with Lindsey Williams.

Lindsey Williams, who has been an ordained Baptist minister for 28 years, went to Alaska in 1971 as a missionary. The Transalaska oil pipeline began its construction phase in 1974, and because of Mr. Williams' love for his country and concern for the spiritual welfare of the "pipeliners,&quot ; he volunteered to serve as Chaplain on the pipeline, with the subsequent full support of the Alyeska Pipeline Company. Because of the executive status accorded to him as Chaplain, he was given access to information documented in his eye opening book, The Energy Non-Crisis.
After numerous public speaking engagements in the western states, certain government officials and concerned individuals urged Mr. Williams to put into print what he saw and heard, stating that they felt this information was vital to national security. Mr. Williams firmly believes that whoever controls energy controls the economy. Thus, The Energy Non-Crisis.

Gun Control: History, Philosophy and Ethics by Stefan Molyneux

These mass shootings always happen in "gun free" zones" Anti-gun propaganda: 'assault rifle' 'weapons of war' 'high capacity' You regurgitate media manipulated buzz words. The AR-15 is one of the most popular rifles in the US, not only for defense, but it is used for hunting and sport because of it's modular. The standard magazine is 30rnds. You want to ban a magazine? On a 3d printer one can make any magazine they want. Gun control laws work as well as drug laws... they don't.  One not need justify what is guaranteed in the bill of rights. But if we are playing the how can you justify it game.Can you justify having a swimming pool? Do you know how many children die every year from those or how about alcohol? Do you know how many children die from drunk drivers? If you want to save the children then call for all things that isn't required for living that cause children death to be banned.

Whos is Jesus ? ~ The Life of Jesus by Prof. Gary R. Habermas





Prof. Gary R. Habermas discussed the historical evidence for the life of Jesus Christ, based on the work of a cross-section of contemporary scholars. Christ was a Middle Easterner, perhaps darker skinned than people typically picture him, and most scholars agree that he was a miracle worker. There are around 30 accounts of his miracles in the Gospels that can serve as historical documentation. Further, he is the only founder of a major religion to have miracles associated with him within a generation of his death, he said.

Many scholars also believe that at least in some sense Jesus was raised from the dead, Habermas asserted. "It's generally conceded that the disciples had real experiences," in terms of their witnessing his appearance after his death, he added. Alternative accounts of Jesus' life that claim he was married and had children are not backed up by any early historical data, he noted.

In the latter portion of the show, callers participated in 'Miracle Moment' Open Lines. One caller, who identified himself as the 'Lone Caroler,' said just that evening he'd stopped kids from crossing the street when a car with its lights turned off suddenly came barreling past. "Santa" phoned in and bequeathed the title of "Gentleman" to George for his kindness. At the end of the program, Lionel Fanthorpe's rendition of Twas the Night Before Christmas was featured.

Wikipedia
Jesus (pron.: /ˈdʒiːzəs/; Greek: Ἰησοῦς Iēsous; 7--2 BC/BCE to 30--36 AD/CE), also referred to as Jesus of Nazareth, is the central figure of Christianity, whom a majority of Christian denominations believe to be the Son of God.

Virtually all scholars of antiquity agree that Jesus existed. Most scholars agree that Jesus was a Jewish teacher from Galilee in Roman Judaea, was baptized by John the Baptist, and was crucified in Jerusalem on the orders of the Roman Prefect, Pontius Pilate. However, the quest for the historical Jesus has produced little agreement on the historicity of gospel narratives and their theological assertions of his divinity. Scholars have offered various portraits of Jesus, which at times share a number of overlapping attributes, such as the leader of an apocalyptic movement, Messiah, a charismatic healer, a sage and philosopher, or a social reformer who preached of the "Kingdom of God" as a means for personal and egalitarian social transformation. Scholars have correlated the New Testament accounts with non-Christian historical records to arrive at an estimated chronology of Jesus' life.

Christians hold Jesus to be the awaited Messiah of the Old Testament and refer to him as Jesus Christ or simply as Christ, a name that is also used secularly. Most Christians believe that Jesus was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of a virgin, performed miracles, founded the Church, died sacrificially by crucifixion to achieve atonement, rose from the dead, and ascended into heaven, from which he will return. The majority of Christians worship Jesus as the incarnation of God the Son, and the Second Person of the Holy Trinity. A few Christian groups reject Trinitarianism, wholly or partly, as non-scriptural.

In Islam, Jesus (commonly transliterated as Isa) is considered one of God's important prophets. In Islam, Jesus is a bringer of scripture, and the product of a virgin birth, but not the victim of crucifixion. Judaism rejects the belief that Jesus was the awaited Messiah, arguing that he did not fulfill the Messianic prophecies in the Tanakh. Bahá'í scripture almost never refers to Jesus as the Messiah, but calls him a Manifestation of God
