Animal Farm Economics

- Economic Fascism in the United States of America

It is very simple economic fascism, animal farm economics 101.

IRS property confiscation for taxes; this is the definition of economic fascism; IRS property confiscation for taxes.

The United States Federal Government is losing containment of it’s :cash cow"; your home.

The Federal government is buying all home mortgages and at fire sale prices!

The Federal government is buying banks, and at fire sale prices!

The federal government is buying your debt, and at fire sale prices!

If You do not support the United States Federal Government they are going to kick you out of your house.

Do you get it yet?

You will be kept a squatter and if you play the game correctly and support the Federal government, they will let you keep your home.

Economic Fascism and The United States

If I do not believe in, trust, or support the US Federal Government, my home should not be in jeopardy. The Federal Government, whenever they choose, through the IRS, will take your home if you do not support them. This confiscation of property by the Federal Government is absolutely and unequivocally wrong, and it is illegal.

For the Federal Government to threaten me with stealing my home because I want them to fail, is economic FASCISM.

Let the Federal Government collect it’s taxes but to put my home in peril because of taxes - is ECONOMIC FASCISM.

I want the Federal Government to spend itself into bankruptcy and irrelevance; and it is my patriotic right as a human and and an American to have control over my money to do so.

I believe in local taxes, and local representation of those taxes; to me - the FED is DEAD.

The day a Trident Nuclear submarine pulls into port for salvage and dismantling, because the US Federal Government has no money, will be the day I open a bottle of champagne, and christen my life.

Illegal use of Equity - Average and Normal

People have made bad, and improper investments with credit and equity.

My family and friends (who I would say are "average" and "normal" Americans) have used home equity to buy other homes, invest in the stock market, to buy "stuff", and to pay expenses. This sometimes illegal and improper use of residential property equity is the problem! This equity does not exist yet and no one knows when or if it will, or how much it may be; and it is all ready "at work" - multiply times over. I have seen many people live off of credit and use their money to invest. This "hyper-capitalism" of equity on equity - on credit and debt appreciation, is a flawed and failing economic model, and it is failing - just as it should.

My landlord was out yesterday because her house needs major work.
She said "Well, I'll just have to do it - I mean it has to be done - I am getting a home improvement loan on another property and I'll have to use it here - Well it has to be done - so keep me informed - I am refinancing this house at a lower rate on Friday - if I can get the loan with the house like this - could you cover it with plastic or something for the bank appraiser to come out?"......

FOX News Suggests Mortgages for Minorities Caused Financial Collapse

Neil Cavuto, host of Fox News' Your World, conflated giving home mortgages to minorities with risky lending practices, suggesting that efforts to increase homeownership among minority borrowers contributed to financial problems at Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Discussing the decision by the U.S. Treasury Department and the Federal Housing Finance Agency to place Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac into conservatorship, Cavuto asked Rep.

Pipe scheme: ICC judge to weigh Canadian pipeline's demand for eminent domain in Illinois

Pipe scheme
ICC judge to weigh Canadian pipeline's demand for eminent domain
BY PETER DOWNS, Illinois Times
JULY 3, 2008

Should a $10 billion Canadian oil and gas delivery company get the right to take a private nature preserve from a retired Illinois railroad conductor? Larry Jones, an administrative law judge with the Illinois Commerce Commission, is set to begin hearings in Springfield on July 8 to settle that question.
Carlisle Kelly’s nature preserve isn’t large, only 205 acres, but the battle for control of piece of his property is seen as a test of how much Americans are being asked to give up to supply the world’s energy needs.

The Best Farmland in the U.S. Is Flooded; Most Americans Are Too Stupid to Panic

The best commentary I could offer is a link to a previous story:

World’s Largest Maker of Crop Nutrients: Famines May Occur Without Record Harvests

But I’ll ramble on a bit more about this, anyway.

As soon as I became aware of the flooding situation in the American Midwest, I posted the story with the EMERGENCY prefix on the title.
Just so we’re clear, when I write EMERGENCY at the beginning of a post
title, this is my way of indicating that the situation is as serious as
it gets. It means that I feel as though everyone reading should
consider taking immediate evasive action. All the jawboning about
conspiracy, how things could have been, how things should be, etc. are
behind us now. You know, EMERGENCY, act fast, eyes wide, nostrils
flared, etc.

While the food supply situation has skated along a knife edge so far
this year, with higher prices and many countries experiencing food
riots, widespread famine did not take hold. In an incredible move, the Japanese quietly eased rice shortages
by releasing portions of their imported rice stockpiles—from giant
warehouses in Tokyo—into the system; a welcome but one off blip in the
big picture. What happens next time?

Executive Signing Statements

Pharaoh Bush - Let My People Go

In a refreshing investigative series in the Boston Globe from 2006, journalist Charlie Savage dropped a bombshell on the Bush administration . Reporting on Bush’s use of signing statements, Savage highlighted the president’s long-standing contempt for legislative authority. Since then, the story has generally been overlooked, although it recently resurfaced when bush issued another statement that he would disregard Congress’s prohibition of permanent military bases in Iraq.
