Ron Paul is Clearly Wrong: Why Bailouts Work and the Dangers of Libertarian Economics

Stimulus packages and bailouts are required to maintain the stability of a society. If the wealthiest and most powerful people in a society make a mistake, it is the responsibility of everyone in that society to collectively and financially forgive them of their mistakes. If it were not for this collective financial forgiveness of the bad decisions made by the elite, they would not be able to continue to impose the necessary policies on society.

"Paradox": Federal Workers/Contractors Donate More to Candidate Promising Most Cuts to Government

from The Washington Post:



Bloomberg:
Ron Paul, the presidential candidate who says he’ll shrink government the most, is attracting more campaign cash than any of his Republican rivals from two unlikely sources: U.S. government workers and employees of the biggest federal contractors.

Military personnel donate more to the candidate who promises an end to most military operations world wide than all other Republican candidates combined, even outpacing the Nobel Peace-Prize-Winner-in-Chief.

Marriage: A Short History Lesson

Privatize Marriage Now

The natural outcome of widespread approval of this state of affairs is that governments are now seen as the institution that can legitimately define marriage itself. We now have civil laws deciding what marriage is and what it is not and who can be married and who can not.

For anyone who has an interest in actually defending the historically traditional status of marriage, this power should be viewed as both dangerous and illegitimate. Thanks to the secularizing efforts of Christian reformers and anti-Christian types throughout history, marriage gradually became for many a civil matter only. Many people get "married" in courthouses in totally non-religious ceremonies. Such marriage contracts are in essence no different from run-of-the-mill legal contracts. The fact that we call such unions "marriage" doesn’t make them so. In the Judeo-Christian tradition, marriage is a religious matter. Some government judge can’t make you "married" any more than can your hair dresser. Here, we see that the so-called "traditional" marriage types who nevertheless defend government civil "marriage" (as defined by them) have already sown the seeds of their own defeat. They’ve already removed the institution of marriage from its traditional role and status.

"Right-wing Extremism" Propaganda pre-dates MIAC Report

"Right-wing Extremism" Propaganda pre-dates MIAC Report

With all the recent fear-mongering regarding pandemics, depressions, and the end of the world in general, it's easy to fall victim to the psy-ops that are intended to keep the masses in a perpetual state of fear and subservience. But just ignoring the government's harassment tactics will ultimately do more harm than good, as will forgetting "old news" of government corruption because of the constant revelations of even more corruption (I think that at the highest levels, the government's intention is that the general public will continue to be hopelessly overwhelmed with never-ending waves of bad news and therefore will give up on being informed or proactive altogether). With that in mind, let's take a look back at some "old news", and attempt to highlight one type of harassment tactic: equating opposing views with extremism. But first, here is what has recently transpired...

An article from Kurt Nimmo on March 12 describes an internal document from the Missouri State Police, after the report was leaked to Alex Jones by an anonymous Missouri police officer:

"Alex Jones has received a secret report distributed by the Missouri Information Analysis Center (MIAC) entitled “The Modern Militia Movement” and dated February 20, 2009. A footer on the document indicates it is “unclassified” but “law enforcement sensitive,” in other words not for public consumption. A copy of the report was sent to Jones by an anonymous Missouri police officer.

The MIAC report specifically describes supporters of presidential candidates Ron Paul, Chuck Baldwin, and Bob Barr as “militia” influenced terrorists and instructs the Missouri police to be on the lookout for supporters displaying bumper stickers and other paraphernalia associated with the Constitutional, Campaign for Liberty, and Libertarian parties."
http://www.prisonplanet.com/secret-state-police-report-ron-paul-bob-barr...

Although this particular report was retracted after intense public outcry and publicized denouncement by Ron Paul, Bob Barr, and Chuck Baldwin, the MIAC website still retains active and dedicated to it's stated cause:

"MIAC is the mechanism to collect incident reports of suspicious activities to be evaluated and analyzed in an effort to identify potential trends or patterns of terrorist or criminal operations within the state of Missouri. MIAC will also function as a vehicle for two-way communication between federal, state and local law enforcement community within our region."
http://miacx.org/

This type of policy is regarded by some as a relatively new phenomenon, and indeed many are inclined to place blame for the report on current national and world events, more specifically, current government abuse of power. However, this is not the case. Upon further examination of the source and content of the MIAC report, several similarities with previous reports from other agencies and organizations have emerged. In fact the original article by Kurt Nimmo describes one such program:

"The MIAC report is similar to one created by the Phoenix Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Joint Terrorism Task Force during the Clinton administration (see page one and page two of the document). The FBI document explicitly designates “defenders” of the Constitution as “right-wing extremists.” The MIAC report expands significantly on the earlier document."

On March 26, 2009, ALIPAC issued a press release regarding MIAC, which in part stated:

"ALIPAC is issuing a national advisory to all local, state, and Federal law enforcement agencies and officers, along with all DHS Fusion Centers, a warning against any reliance upon faulty and politicized research issued by the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) and Anti Defamation League (ADL).

A national scandal emerged in Missouri, after their MIAC Fusion Center issued an eight page document which made many false claims. The documents attempted to politicize police and cast suspicion on millions of Americans. The 'Missouri Documents', as they came to be called, listed over 32 characteristics police should watch for as signs or links to domestic terrorists, which could threaten police officers, court officials, and infrastructure targets."
http://www.alipac.us/article4073.html

Indeed, the MIAC report and the sources from which it's information is derived is remarkably similar to previous profiling and "intelligence" put forth by other organizations many years ago:

"The Posse Comitatus is an intermittently active, loosely organized group of "Christian Identity" activists dedicated to survivalism, vigilantism, and anti-government agitation. Following the pseudo-religious tenets of the "Identity" movement, Posse members typically proclaim Jews to be the "synagogue of Satan," blacks and other people of color to be subhuman "mud races," and Northern European whites to be the "Chosen People" of Biblical prophecy. The name of the group translates from Latin to mean "power of the county," and the Posse believes that all governmental power is rooted at the county, not Federal, level.

Of course, Nazi-esqe racism is abhorrent, thus the setup here with this particular group, setting the tone for the reader before the rest of the information is given.

"Because Posse members believe that the Federal government is controlled by 'enemies' - often meaning Jews - they resist paying taxes, as well as other duties of law abiding citizenship. Some members of the group have even refused to apply for driver's licenses, because this would imply submission to an 'illegitimate, subversive' authority. Elements of the Posse's ideology, most notably its fierce hostility to Federal authority are echoed among today's militias."

"The Posse Comitatus is a loose association of people who share the same beliefs, a blend of Christian Identity, tax protest, Sovereign Citizen ideology, and common law activism. Posse Comitatus followers believe that the sheriff is the highest legitimate government authority, and that the federal government has no rightful power over American citizens. Therefore, the posse argues, judges, the I.R.S., and the F.B.I. are constantly violating the rights of Americans everywhere. The sheriff (according to Posse adherents) can form a posse of citizens to enforce the law, and if he fails to do so, then the citizenry may forcibly replace him."

START goes on to say:

"These data were collected for the Terrorism Knowledge Base® (TKB®), managed by the Memorial Institute for the Prevention of Terrorism (MIPT) until March 2008. START has neither reviewed nor verified these data, but is presenting this information as a service to the homeland security community."

A quick search of MIPTs website produces no immediately obvious connection with the ADL or SPLC. Without further investigation, however, one cannot rule out this possibility.

What then is the real reason why such excuses are made on behalf of the "legitimacy" of these current programs, when obviously fourteen years pre-dates our current wave of "unforeseen" crises? And to what extent does a foreign influence have over American Constitutional law?
