U.S. Secretary of State discussed using a ‘drone strike’ to murder reporter Julian Assange

Every tyrant, king, president, czar or prime minister has always dreamed of having omnipotent power to snuff out criticism or critical journalism.

Now there is a report that Hillary Clinton, as U.S. Secretary of State, thought seriously about killing Julian Assange (founder of the website Wikilieaks, which has exposed massive government corruption) by a drone strike. See here.

Of course, Assange has been holed up for several years in the Ecuadorian Embassy in London. Any drone strike upon Assange would have triggered a war or a major international incident. g

Government appears to be helping cover up the risks of donating kidneys

helmet

Interesting (and courageous) essay by medical student Michael Poulson in the Washington Post.

At age 18, Poulson donated a kidney. Like almost everything in American life, organ donation is overregulated by the government. The government imposes a ‘list’ system and criminalizes any selling of organs or other profit-potential ventures which might unleash innovation.

And, it turns out, government overregulation aids and abets the suppression of information about the potential risks of donating kidneys and other organs.

Years after Michael Poulson donated a kidney, he stumbled upon research that shows organ donors are more likely to develop kidney failure later in life, and–possibly–to die earlier from a range of other illnesses.

(Government propaganda feeds into a ‘cheerleading’ ethic which simply praises donors without alerting them to any potential risks.)

Minnesota medical insurance poised to skyrocket in cost

marx_dees

The “Affordable Care Act” was enacted by Congress in 2010 with claims that it would bring average savings of $2,500 per year per household.

It has actually caused health care prices to explode faster than Medicare and Medicaid did.

In Minnesota, average premium prices are set to increase by 50 % to 67% in 2017. See here.

This while annual economic growth hovers around 1% due to overregulation and taxation.

Stay tuned!

U.S. “Defense Department” spent at least a half billion dollars to create fake al-queda videos

Governments worldwide have always sought to control the message. In recent years, a fake “grass roots” movement to give government more control over election ads has arisen, calling itself the “campaign finance reform” movement. This while government agencies spend hundreds of millions annually on ads, messages and propaganda (on top of all the other ways that government agencies influence people with punishments and rewards).

Every claim offered by the campaign finance movement is false.

Now it is revealed that the U.S. government paid AT LEAST A HALF BILLION DOLLARS to just one public relations firm to produce and distribute fake “al-quaeda” videos. See here.

(Note that this dollar amount is almost one-quarter of the total dollars spent in 2008 by Barak Obama’s successful presidential campaign!)

Note that this story should also be filed in the ‘fake threat of terror’ file. Almost every claim made by governments about ‘terrorism’ is untrue. (And state-sponsored terrorism vastly overshadows all private ‘terrorism’ in the world.)

THE COVER STORY IS THAT THE MILITARY WAS USING THE VIDEOS TO ‘TRACK’ VIEWERS. YAH RIGHT.

The percentage of Americans identifying as “middle class” has plummeted

An economy may be measured in many ways. But the percentage of Americans who say they are in the middle or upper-middle class has fallen 10 percentage points, from a 61% average between 2000 and 2008 to 51% today. See here.

The reality is even worse: only 20% of American households actually possess the income and assets that characterize the middle class in financial terms. Decades of savings-robbing government programs such as Social Security and Medicare have robbed the American people of their financial substance.

Virtually every government claim about global warming is false or inaccurate

Virtually every claim made by the government regarding the threat of manmade global warming is untrue or inaccurate.

This summer the government-supporting press has been blaring headlines about melting ice in the Arctic.

Yet Arctic sea ice appears to be growing rapidly; perhaps at a record pace. See here. 051516amerigeddon

Obamacare is spiking health care costs by at least 10 % annually

As a candidate on the campaign trail in 2008, Obama once said: “If you’ve got health insurance, we’re going to help that employer save $2,500 per family per year. … Those savings are going to be passed along to the workers.”

But the “Affordable Care Act” has actually spiked costs (just as did Medicare and Medicaid before it). See here.

Average cost of health care is going up by about 10 percent annually. Economic growth is still hovering around 1 % per year.

Government lies exposed: arctic ice appears to be expanding rapidly

Arctic sea ice is now almost 50% higher than 2012, higher than last year, and about to pass all recent years. The government has been claiming Arctic sea ice is at or near an all-time low.ice

East German socialism caused lower life expectancy than West German capitalism

When the Berlin Wall came down, socialist East Germany was more polluted, poorer and sicker than West Germany.

According to David Legates’ “The Experiment: Capitalism versus Socialism,”

“State-guaranteed health care in the East did not translate into a healthier society. In 1990, life expectancy in the West was about 3½ years longer than in the East for men, and more than 2½ years longer for women.”

Despite the headlines, ice in the arctic appears to be growing faster than normal

Headlines have blared this year about Arctic snow melt. But as Tony Heller’s Real Climate Science website points out, Arctic ice is actually growing rapidly. See here.

Besides being the shortest melt season on record, and the earliest start to winter on record, the Arctic is also seeing the fastest September ice growth on record.

Ice extent is 40% above 2012, higher than last year and about the same as 2013.

This despite the fact that the summer started very warm.chasing ice
