Posted on April 19, 2011 at 10:44amLook! The President is speaking to CHILDREN again! Good thing he is not reading “My Pet Goat”, while Rome is burning, or he might actually get some criticism from the “all-concerned” main-stream press. Can this man EVER speak freely, and answer questions from ADULTS?

Posted on April 19, 2011 at 10:19amBODY LANGUAGE** Watch for it here!!! His lips are ALWAYS PURSED, and it says A LOT!
“Much aggression can be shown in the face, from disapproving frowns and “pursed lips” to sneers and full snarls. “Pursed lips” which are pulled inwards are an indication of tension and indicate frustration or disapproval. “Pursed lips” are a classic sign of anger, including when it is suppressed. It is effectively holding the mouth shut to prevent the person saying what they feel like saying. This may also be an indication of lying or withholding the truth as the person stops themselves from telling the truth.”

Posted on April 19, 2011 at 10:46amINFLATION – STEALTH TAXATION:
The tyrants (Wannabe Peers) would have you believe that taxes are only increased when the legislature increases taxes. These tyrants use the confusion over the relationship between wealth and the medium of exchange (money) to perpetuate this myth. Actually, the tax on the economy rises whenever the government s increases spending. Tax laws just determine how the liability is distributed. If the taxes fail to cover expenses, the value of the dollar decreases and anyone who owns money pays the tax in the form of loss of purchasing power. Money, (paper money) has no intrinsic value. The dollar’s value is determined by the quantity of wealth the market is willing to exchange for the dollar. The dollar’s value eventually will be determined by the nation’s wealth divided by the dollars and credit in circulation.
Inflation is not a recent phenomenon. During the 19th Century the inflation rate in the United States was 12% for the entire Century. In 1800, $0.89 had the purchasing power of $1.00 in 1900, a change of about 12% in 100 years. From 1900 to 2007 the inflation rate was about 25 to 1, a change of 2500% in 107 years. A Google search lists over 20 pages of “inflation calculators” three of the most popular inflation calculators list the inflation rate of between 24.6 and27.71 from 1900 and 2007. In other words, $1.00 in 1900 was worth around $25.00 in 2007.
What happened? In the late 1800’s and early 1900’s four factors emerged that caused inflation to increase. These are:
• Creation of the “Fourth Branch of Government” the Bureaucracy
• Enacting and enforcing the Sherman Antitrust Act.
• Creation of the Federal Reserve
• Enacting the income tax
• Wars
How did these factors cause such erosion in the value of the dollar? Chapter 9 of “21st Century Common Sense” explains in simple terms how these factors produced inflation of the dollar and aided the “Wannabe Peers” in usurping our freedom. The book “Money Mischief” by Milton Friedman provides a complete history of inflation, the causes and the consequences for those who require more proof. http://commonsense21c.com/
