Physicians going broke because the health care system doesn’t work

In the US, most people, upon hearing that someone is a physician assume that person has a higher than average income. However, a recent article on the CNN Money website drew attention to a new trend — doctors declaring bankruptcy. Bankruptcy and practice closuresThe…

Woman spends six hours cooking meth inside Walmart before anyone takes notice and calls police

When 45-year-old Elizabeth Alisha Greta Halfmoon was finally arrested for trying to set up a methamphetamine lab inside a Tulsa, Okla., Walmart store, she told police that she did not have the money to actually buy the chemicals and mix them on her own property. But…

Is the war on terror a complete hoax? Paul Craig Roberts reveals how social engineers infected America with mass paranoia

(NaturalNews) What if there weren’t any real terrorists threatening America and the whole thing was just made up to justify a military agenda? A rational person might say that if we’re all going to give up our rights, and our Fourth Amendment, and have U.S. troops in the streets running checkpoints, then logically there should at least be some evidence that America has been infiltrated with terrorists, right? Or, more specifically, evidence from a reliable source that has not already been caught lying about terrorism , which would exclude the federal government, of course. Look around you today: Do you see any terrorists? Any “towel heads” aiming guns at your family? Anybody walking around with a vest full of explosives? Nope. Have you ever seen the TSA catch a terrorist at the airport? Ever read a news report of the TSA catching a terrorist? Ever heard of an Air Marshall stopping a terrorist in-flight? Nope. Have you ever heard of the FBI halting a terrorist plot that they didn’t fabricate, plan and carry out themselves? (All the terror plots “stopped” by the FBI are, on the record, planned and carried out by the FBI itself.) (http://www.naturalnews.com/033751_FBI_terrorism.html) Seriously. Clear the cobwebs out of your head for a moment and think logically: Where are all these “terrorists” that we’re supposed to be afraid of and give up our rights for? Where are they? Now, of course, the government can and will, from time to time, stage some sort of terrorist event to remind everyone to be afraid. That’s a given. In classic Orwellian protocol, any war that grants a government unlimited power will be indefinitely sustained. This is why the “War on Terror” was declared against a tactic , not a nation or a person. That way, the so-called “war” can be carried out indefinitely. A war with no end. Perpetual tyranny. At first, if you remember, we were told we needed TSA agents at the airports because of Osama Bin Laden, remember? He was the “mastermind” who was going to cause airplanes to fall out of the sky. So what happened after he was killed and removed from the picture? The U.S. government announced the terror threat was now “even higher” because Bin Laden’s loyal supporters would now seek revenge! Do you see how, under this brand of sick logic, the war on terror will go on indefinitely? They can always claim someone else is dangerous… there’s always a new boogeyman when it serves the interests of the state. That’s why it’s now obvious that this war has been entirely fabricated to achieve specific political and social agendas. The war on terror is a hoax The best article yet written on this subject was penned by none other than Paul Craig Roberts, former Assistant Secretary of the US Treasury and former associate editor of the Wall Street Journal. As Roberts explains: (http://www.infowars.com/?p=62008) “The US government creates whatever new bogeymen and incidents are necessary to further the neoconservative agenda of world hegemony and higher profits for the armaments industry.” He goes on to provide details: “If we look around for the terror that the police state and a decade of war has allegedly protected us from, the terror is hard to find. Except for 9/11 itself, assuming we accept the government’s improbable conspiracy theory explanation, there have been no terror attacks on the US. Indeed, as RT pointed out on August 23, 2011, an investigative program at the University of California discovered that the domestic “terror plots” hyped in the media were plotted by FBI agents.” “As there apparently are no real terror plots for this huge workforce to uncover, the FBI justifies its budget, terror alerts, and invasive searches of American citizens by thinking up “terror plots” and finding some deranged individuals to ensnare. For example, the Washington DC Metro bombing plot, the New York city subway plot, the plot to blow up the Sears Tower in Chicago were all FBI brainchilds organized and managed by FBI agents.” Robert goes on to explain the real motivation behind the war on terror. It’s not to fight terrorism, as has been publicly claimed, but rather to scare Americans into a state of blind obedience to a police state government: “When I observe the gullibility of my fellow citizens at the absurd “terror plots” that the US government manufactures, it causes me to realize that fear is the most powerful weapon any government has for advancing an undeclared agenda. Apparently, Americans, or most of them, are so ruled by fear that they suffer no remorse from “their” government’s murder and dislocation of millions of innocent people. In the American mind, one billion “towel-heads” have been reduced to terrorists who deserve to be exterminated.” And commenting on the TSA’s total thuggishness and criminality, Roberts writes: “One of America’s finest moments is the case, documented on YouTube, of a dying woman in a wheelchair, who requires special food, having her food thrown away by the Gestapo TSA despite the written approval from the Transportation Safety Administration, her daughter arrested for protesting, and the dying woman in the wheelchair left alone in the airport.” A nation of gullible, paranoia-stricken slaves What’s really amazing in all this is how easily the American people are sucked into believing all the imaginary fairytale terrorists. These stilted beliefs are driving national decisions about security, defense spending, Presidential elections and even the Bill of Rights. What America needs to do right now is wake from its dreamy slumber and realize The Emperor Has No Clothes! The war on terror is a fabrication. The whole “if you see something, say something” campaign is a hypnosis script for mass paranoia . The airport security checkpoints are not designed to make flying safer but to make the American people more terrified. Every element of the so-called “war on terror” is a complete fabrication, just as the original war on Iraq was a total fabrication with its WMDs and fabricated yellowcake uranium claims which turned out to be utter falsehoods. Of course, if the American people actually got close to waking up and realizing the whole war on terror was a complete fabrication, you can rest assured an event would be staged to instill fear in the minds of the people once again. All the FBI would have to do, for example, is allow one of their many engineered terror plots to continue all the way. The FBI, as you probably know, already provides the terror plots, the weapons, the money, the grenades, ammunition, and anything else necessary for its chosen terror suspects to carry out these acts of violence. It then takes credit for halting these attacks, pretending to be protecting us from the very plots it engineered in the first place (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CyAXrJ7LT1M) (http://rt.com/usa/news/fbi-usa-terrorism-portland/). It obviously wouldn’t take much for the FBI to simply allow a mass shooting in a mall or a sports stadium, for example — even as such acts were carried out with hardware supplied by the FBI itself! Here, crazy kid, take some antidepressant drugs, an AR-15 and some FBI ammunition, and go shoot up the local mall, they might say. And there are crazy enough youngsters in America who would carry it out, sadly. Such an act would immediately be heralded by the corrupt mainstream media as yet more evidence that we’re “losing” the war on terror and therefore we need police checkpoints at every street corner; we need military personnel strip-searching everyone in U.S. cities; and we need to eliminate cash from society so that we can track everybody’s purchases via electronic instruments. Heck, we need to just end the entire Bill of Rights! Who needs “rights” when all these police are everywhere to protect us, right? So you can expect such acts of violence to be engineered and unleashed upon America in the very near future by the very institutions that claim to be protecting us from terror. In reality, they are the real terrorists in the classic sense of the word. “Terrorism” means, by definition, the use of fear tactics to achieve a political or social goal. There is no better example that fits the definition perfectly than the Department of Homeland Security itself, which is far more interested in figuring out how to INFECT people with fear rather than to PROTECT them from real terrorism. America’s government owes the Arab-American community a huge apology What is especially insidious in all this is how these government elements who fabricate all these terror plots specifically work to entrap Arab Americans and others who “look” like terrorists because they are of Middle Eastern descent. Through these actions, the U.S. government has unleashed a generation of hatred against Arab-Americans, Iranian-Americans and other groups of completely innocent people who are now subjected to social shunning, ridicule and suspicion by the rest of American society. People of Middle Eastern descent are looked at in America today with the kind of condescending disdain that blacks once suffered under just a few generations ago (and in some areas, even today). Some of the demeaning vocabulary has even been grafted onto the new victims, who are viciously called “sand niggers” as if that somehow justifies marginalizing their very existence. On this historical point, by the way, at least when African Americans were held as slaves, they knew they were enslaved! But all the delusional white people running around America today dialing 911 because they saw some guy using CASH — OMG! — still don’t realize that they are far more enslaved than the plantation workers ever were. All these CNN-watching, clock-punching, government-worshipping morons are slaving away 60 hours a week to feed their money into a system that has already plotted to destroy them (and steal their wealth, too). They are the “mindlessly enslaved masses” of our modern world, and they have no clue they are enslaved at all. Government is guilty of hate crimes Getting back to the condemnation of Arab-Americans and others of Middle Eastern descent, that the government has specifically targeted these people to be entrapped in terror plot crimes is one of the most outrageous examples of a hate crime against an entire society. It is shameful beyond belief that a government which wants to make it illegal for citizens to engage in “hate crimes” against other citizens has effectively unleashed the greatest hate crime in history by demonizing huge swaths of American citizens whose parents happened to be Persian, or Kuwaiti, or Iraqi, or Saudi. You know who is carrying out the real terror in America today? It’s not the “towel heads” to borrow a vulgar a highly inappropriate phrase from those who push this agenda. No, it’s the beer-bellied, white-faced, ego-driven, child-molesting TSA agents who terrorize tens of thousands of innocent air passengers every single day by stripping them down in those secret little rooms behind the security checkpoint naked body scanners — which are themselves another form of electronic strip searches that violate fundamental human rights. And all the people out there who acquiesce to the tyranny, the in-your-pants searches by the TSA, the restrictions of free speech protests, and the coming “secret detainment” provisions just passed by the U.S. Senate (http://www.naturalnews.com/034291_SB_1867_war_on_terror.html), you are all fools and suckers who have been brainwashed into a state of irrational paranoia . Those who foolishly believe the fabricated war on terror are the ultimate pessimists You who have bought into all this fabricated terror nonsense are the worst “doom-and-gloomers” of our time, living your lives in a constant state of fear and despair, fretting about invisible imaginary terrorists who you think are going to magically leap out of your luggage and blow up an airplane. You’ve been indoctrinated by the “if you see something, say something” paranoia, and you’ve been hoodwinked by a bunch of social engineers who know how to manipulate fear to achieve their desired political (and military) agendas. It’s pathetic. And it’s the oldest trick in the government book, of course: Use the fear of terror to manipulate the public into supporting a police state agenda which concentrates power in the hands of the executive branch, which quickly becomes a military dictatorship. Read your history, folks, or you will stupidly repeat it. It might also be worth your time to read George Orwell’s 1984 novel, as it’s very nearly a blueprint for the Department of Homeland Security’s “perpetual war” fraud.

While consumers shop, U.S. descends into planned financial implosion that favors corporate elite

(NaturalNews) We live in interesting times. Even as our own civilization hangs on the precipice of financial solvency, the priorities of the uninformed masses as so distorted that many will actually camp out in front of a Best Buy store in order to be the first in line to save $100 on a big-screen TV. In a time when the very problems of society are rooted in over-consumption and too much television , the everyday pleebs place such high importance on expanding the size of their mainstream media hypnosis devices that they will physically fight each other to get one of these TVs at a slightly lower price. Meanwhile, the federal debt has plunged past $15 trillion, the freedoms and liberties upon which America built its economic strength are fast eroding, and the U.S. has practically entered a fighting war with Pakistan (http://www.reuters.com/article/2011/11/26/us-pakistan-nato-idUSTRE7AP03S20111126). Pay no mind to any of that, friends. Wal-Mart has teflon-coated waffle makers on sale for two bucks off! Sleight-of-mind distractions Meanwhile, the 2012 presidential election races are under way, and the mainstream media seems determined to catapult anyone into the White House as long as his name isn’t Ron Paul. The last thing the globalist controllers really want is someone who dares to tell the People the truth about topics that matter — the Federal Reserve, national debt, foreign wars, the Bill of Rights and more. Presidents are supposed to be entertainers and distracters , didn’t you know? When a nation’s collision with financial reality is all but inescapable, that nation inevitably turns to bread and circuses . And so sleight-of-mind distractions invite the masses to invest their attention in dancing with the stars, lusting after the latest electronics gadgets, and tuning in to staged news footage from the front lines of the fabricated “war on terror” where U.S. troops are now openly engaged in the planting, harvesting and protecting of the opium trade in Afghanistan. You can talk about anything you want in America, it seems, as long as it’s not the Bill of Rights, or buying something with cash, or exercising your Free Speech rights — because all of those things are now considered signs of being a suspected terrorist . Layers of deceit The most astonishing thing about it all is how many layers of wool have been pulled over the eyes of the American people, most of whom suffer under the illusion that they still live in a “free” country. Where to begin in educating people about this? First, there’s the engineered “war on terror” which was entirely invented, carried out and sold to the American people as a way to justify more war spending and the stripping away of fundamental human rights. Then there’s the economic quackery taking place right under our noses as the Federal Reserve — a private corporation that answers to no one — has been quietly and deliberately stealing America’s wealth for nearly a hundred years. Following the money is simply too difficult for mainstream Americans, who are unable to grasp how purchasing power is deliberately stolen from them through the dilution of the money supply. You’re never supposed to get ahead, don’t you know? A common wage earner can no more save money and make it into the ranks of the ultra wealthy than a frog can transform into a magical unicorn. That’s because a small percentage of your wealth — everything you’ve worked for — is stolen from you year after year, much like the way in which rain erodes a pile of sand that you might have stacked and shoveled into a mound. The economic deceit is designed to keep you enslaved; to keep you working for the globalist corporations that pocket the profits of your labors — and usually tax-free! Two examples: Bank of America pays NO taxes (http://www.thestreet.com/story/11059978/bank-of-america-pays-no-taxes-gets-1b-refund-report.html), and General Motors also runs a sweet offshore tax shelter structure that makes it virtually immune to paying taxes at all: http://money.cnn.com/2011/02/23/news/companies/gm_bailout/index.htm Meanwhile, YOU are taxed when you earn (payroll taxes, paid by your employer), taxed when you save (capital gains taxes) and taxed when you spend (sales taxes). You’re even taxed when you just sit on a pile of money and do nothing (monetary devaluation / price inflation). And remarkably, some of the more ignorant members of society have been out protesting, calling for more taxes on the People as a “solution” to all this! No, my friends. We do not need more taxes on the People. In fact, let me explain something to you that will absolutely astonish you once you grasp the simple truth of it: The U.S. government needs NO TAX MONEY whatsoever to operate! The myth of government needing tax money How’s that? You’ve all been told the government needs a few trillion dollars a year in tax revenues to build bombs, make roads, pay social security benefits and the like, right? It is the Great Lie of our time. Allow me to explain… The idea that the U.S. government needs us to send it our money is rooted in the false assumption that the government cannot simply create the money it wants to spend. And yet, we all now know that to be false. For example, in October 2008 during the first investment banker crisis, the U.S. government (via the Federal Reserve) simply created nearly $1 trillion and handed that money over to the richest, filthiest banksters on the planet. Here’s a partial list of who received the money (and this list isn’t even up to date) http://projects.propublica.org/bailout/list Where did this money come from? Think about it. Did you send in some cash to help with this bailout? Of course not. The money was created out of thin air by the U.S. Treasury working in conspiracy with the Federal Reserve. And that wasn’t even the end of it: Between 2008 and 2011, the U.S. government conspired with the Federal Reserve to create trillions more — in what can only be called “counterfeit” money — and then hand it over to the world’s wealthiest corporations, banks and institutions. According to the New York Times, the U.S. government has now committed $12.2 trillion to these institutions: http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2009/02/04/business/20090205-bailout-totals-graphic.html Okay, so where is all this money coming from? Did the U.S. government ask every taxpayer to send in a check to cover this $12 trillion? Nope, because that would have required each American man, woman and child to pay $40,000 just to cover it. That obviously didn’t happen, so where did this money come from? The government just CREATED the money out of thin air. There is technically no need for federal income taxes Here’s the kicker in all this: The government could be creating money right now to end the entire federal tax system so that no American citizen would ever need to pay tax again. The tax code, after all, was originally created only to tax corporations , not the People. Yet today it’s the wealthiest corporations that are paying no tax while the People are being bankrupted by it. So the government, you see, could simply create the few trillion dollars it needs each year to pay for defense spending (bombs and bullets), interest on the debt, social security, Medicare, etc. And that means the government technically doesn’t need YOUR tax dollars at all! Now, of course, it would be financial suicide for the government to keep creating trillions of dollars each year, thereby eroding the purchasing power of the dollar and resulting in price inflation across the nation — but it’s doing that anyway! In other words, the government is already CREATING trillions of dollars in new money, year after year, solely for the benefit of the wealthy banksters and global corporate giants. So if the government is already headed into total financial insolvency (runaway debt increases combined with an upcoming currency collapse) — why not use this suicidal process to help the People for a while instead of just bailing out the wealthy corporations? Imagine this: The IRS announces a cancellation of the personal income tax. You no longer have to file on April 15th. You can keep all the money you’ve earned, other than state income taxes. Can you imagine the economic boom that would result? People who earn more will spend more, thereby unleashing a domino effect of new job creation across the economy. People would be happier, stress would be lowered, and we would probably see a reduction in heart attacks and suicides, too. The federal government, meanwhile, would simply create a couple of trillion dollars each year to fund its own budgetary needs, and we could all ride this insane financial monster into the ground together while at least avoiding the hassle of filling out a stack of income tax paperwork every April. There’s no question, you see, that the U.S. government is headed into total financial insolvency. I’m just saying that as long as we’re headed that way, we should be bailing out the People instead of bailing out the rich banksters and wealthy corporations. Why not cancel the income tax next April 15th and announce an income tax bailout for the working people? Don’t you see that the bankster bailouts are the most obscene example of crony capitalism? The money goes to the insider pals while the debt burden is heaped upon the working poor. That’s the real problem with America — not capitalism , but criminality! The real purpose of the income tax – it’s not what you think So if the tax code is not needed to generate money for the government, what is its purpose, you ask? The purpose of the federal tax code is to keep you down, to keep your face buried in the dirt so that you can never rise up and “get ahead.” The purpose is not to fund the federal government itself, as you’ve been told. The government has already proven it can create trillions of dollars when it really wants to . So remember that as you’re out spending your after-tax dollars this holiday season. Most of what you have been told by conventional, mainstream sources is pure fabrication: The War on Terror, the “danger” of marijuana, the “right” of the government to reach down your pants at the airport, and of course the “need” for you to “contribute” to the government to pay for roads and schools. It’s all so hilariously fictional that we should all be rolling on the floor laughing about it if we weren’t already writhing from the pain of writing all those checks to the government. Taxes, you see, are really just a financial shakedown . They are an exercise of thuggish government power over the common people for no purpose than to remind the People they are slaves to the state. And for that purpose, federal taxes are very, very effective. Much like the fictional War on Terror, the IRS reminds everybody to “be afraid” and comply. And it works. Even I comply with the federal tax code and dutifully pay what seems to be far too much to the federal government every single year. The difference is that I know it’s all a silly game and has nothing whatsoever to do with actually funding government operations. So I pay, and I chuckle, and I continue to work toward the day when we may see the rise of social justice in America where the money supply is honest, the corporations are stripped of their fictional “rights,” and everyone shares equally in the funding of running a smaller government whose main function is to protect and preserve the rights of the People… not to rule over them like tyrants. Happy Holidays from NaturalNews. Enjoy your Christmas season, but as you spend money this year, I encourage you to look at that money in an enlightened way and realize the deeper truth of where money comes from, how it is created, and how government use money confiscation (and devaluation) to weaken the economic power of the People while concentrating it in the hands of the few.

‘Green’ debacle: Tens of thousands of abandoned wind turbines now litter American landscape

(NaturalNews) Literal beacons of the “green” energy movement, giant wind turbines have been one of the renewable energy sources of choice for the US government, which has spent billions of taxpayer dollars subsidizing their construction and use across the country. But high maintenance costs, high rates of failure, and fluctuating weather conditions that affect energy production render wind turbines expensive and inefficient, which is why more than 14,000 of them have since been abandoned. Before government subsidies for the giant metals were cut or eliminated in many areas, wind farms were an energy boom business. But in the post-tax subsidy era, the costs of maintaining and operating wind turbines far outweighs the minimal power they generate in many areas, which has left a patchwork of wind turbine graveyards in many of the most popular wind farming areas of the US. “Thousands of abandoned wind turbines littered the landscape of wind energy’s California ‘big three’ locations which include Altamont Pass, Tehachapin and San Gorgonio, considered among the world’s best wind sites,” writes Andrew Walden of the American Thinker . “In the best wind spots on earth, over 14,000 turbines were simply abandoned. Spinning, post-industrial junk which generates nothing but bird kills.” Walden speaks, of course, about the birds, bats, and other air creatures that routinely get tangled in and killed by wind turbine propellers. And as far as the “post-industrial junk” language, well, if it costs too much to run the machines in the first place, then it definitely costs too much to uproot and remove them post-construction. This whole wind energy mess just further illustrates how the American people have been played by their elected officials who bought into the “global warming” hysteria that spawned the push for wind energy in the first place. And now that the renewable energy tax subsidies are gradually coming to an end in some places, the true financial and economic viability, or lack of wind energy, is on display for the world to see. “It is all about the tax subsidies,” writes Don Surber of the Charleston Daily Mail . “The blades churn until the money runs out. If an honest history is written about the turn of the 21st century, it will include a large, harsh chapter on how fears about global warming were overplayed for profit by corporations.” Sources for this article include: http://blogs.dailymail.com/donsurber/archives/46751 http://toryaardvark.com/2011/11/17/14000-abandoned-wind-turbines-in-the-usa/

Trickle-down tyranny – why ordinary people in positions of local power are adopting tactics of tyrants

(NaturalNews) When I read a story yesterday about an 89-year-old woman being water-boarded by nursing home staff over an argument about ice cream, I knew something terrible was amiss across the American landscape. Spontaneous acts of tyranny have been cropping up lately like cancer tumors: a food tyrant in Nevada raids a farm picnic and orders everyone to destroy their food (http://www.naturalnews.com/034125_food_freedom_picnic.html); student protesters in California get pepper-sprayed by thuggish cops who clearly enjoy causing pain and suffering (http://fieldnotes.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2011/11/21/8927548-college-president-vows-pepper-spraying-probe); and now nursing home staffers torture their own resident using techniques borrowed from Guantanamo Bay (http://atlanta.cbslocal.com/2011/11/18/police-2-georgia-caregivers-waterboard-89-year-old-woman/). I watched all this with a sense of sadness and disgrace for the human race. And then a realization hit me like a sledgehammer… People are only following by example These random acts of tyranny aren’t really random acts at all. They are the infantile acting-out of behaviors the childish American public has witnessed being demonstrated by their “leaders.” The TSA sexually molesting air travelers isn’t just a violation of fundamental human rights — it’s also a demonstration to the mindless masses that this is now “normal” behavior in society, you see. So as the masses observe Big Government reaching down their own pants, they now get the message that it’s okay to sexually molest little boys at sports stadiums, or that it’s okay to take children away from parents through C.P.S. and then rape them as part of child relocation “processing” procedures. When the American people see George Bush set up secret military prisons and condone waterboarding torture techniques, they called for Obama to stop the practice. Obama promised he would, and then not long after becoming President, he expanded Gitmo and actually presided over an increase in funding for the military and all its secret torture facilities. The message to the American people? If Obama supports it, then torture must be okay. After all, he won a Nobel Peace Prize, so “peace” must be something that can be achieved through torture. Thus, we should not be at all surprised when an 89-year-old woman gets water-boarded in a nursing home. After all, those staffers are only doing to her what they’ve watched the U.S. leaders do to other human beings, too. (And yet, for some reason, the nursing home staff were arrested while all the high-level government operatives who engage in the exact same torture techniques are never even questioned…) This phenomenon of everyday American people mirroring the behavior of federal “authorities” who act as tyrants needed a name, and as I began to ponder this issue, the name came to me in a flash: I’m calling this phenomenon Trickle-Down Tyranny . Trickle-Down Tyranny Just as children mimic the actions of their parents, the childish minds of the insecure (and fear-pummeled) mainstream masses also mimic the actions of their parental role models. To many Americans — and especially those of a more liberal mindset — government takes on the role of their parents . The government is supposed to tell you what to eat, what to buy, what to believe and of course how to express your patriotism when needed to justify the latest war launched by a Nobel-Peace-Prize-winning warmonger. Government is the “authority” and the problem solver in the lives of these people. So naturally, in their childish mindset they seek to replicate the behaviors their parental role models are openly exhibiting. Here’s how this looks on the street: Your average city police officer is a wannabe tyrant who now, by watching the criminality of the federal government, feels he has permission to engage in the same tactics of intimidation and arrogance in ruling over the public (rather than serving to protect them). That’s why so many big-city police officers have recently morphed into paramilitary jack-booted thugs; dressing in black, unlawfully arresting people for no justifiable reason, tasering innocent victims in wheelchairs, and generally acting out what is essentially a childish reflection of the very same tyranny they witness being demonstrated by high-level tyrants in Washington D.C. The FBI, for its part, is busy actually masterminding the very same “terror plots” that it then magically “prevents” with great fanfare. As recently exposed in The Guardian (and other newspapers), the FBI actually develops terror plots, provides the plans, weapons, funding, motivation and equipment necessary for these “terrorists” to carry out those plots (http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2011/nov/16/fbi-entrapment-fake-terror-plots?fb=native&CMP=FBCNETTXT9038). This is a whole lot like playing a “big-boy” version of Cowboys and Indians , where all the scenarios are completely fabricated merely for the purpose of playing games as a source of entertainment. Trickle-Down Tyranny is also now being seen in local schools, where “zero-tolerance” rules get children kicked out of the public education system for merely bringing a butter knife in their home-packed lunch, for example. Or a child caught with an aspirin tablet is labeled a “drug abuser” and condemned to special remediation classes. The tyrants are everywhere in American society now Think about the tyrants that have now descended upon you in your own life — the tyrant down at the DMV, the tyrant dog license enforcer, the tyrant building inspector and the tyrant food service worker, also sometimes known as “soup Nazi.” When you really think about it, there are tyrants everywhere now in American culture. The fabric of fear and terror is being woven into that fabric with every “the threat level is now orange” alert put out by George Bush, or every “spy on your neighbors” message broadcast by the ogre of offensive tyrants, DHS head Janet Napolitano. What these people claim to be doing — “stopping terrorism!” — pales in comparison to what they’re really doing: setting examples to be followed by every single person across America who finds himself or herself in a position of authority. We’ll just ALL be tyrants! Terrorizing innocents is now politically correct behavior Through its moronic (and completely fabricated) war on terror, the national leadership in the USA has made it politically correct to terrorize anyone over whom you exercise power . If you’re a librarian, you can terrorize little children over past-due books (that is, if children actually read books at all anymore). If you’re a septic tank inspector, you can terrorize people over the layout of their septic pipes. If you’re a doctor, you can terrorize people over flu shots and chemotherapy, all being aggressively pushed with the very same fear tactics now used at the highest levels of national government. Trickle-down tyranny happens because the political leaders of America have broadcast a message across the nation that terrorizing innocent people is not merely okay, but downright patriotic! Anyone who says they’re not going along with all the terror nonsense, the spy-on-your-neighbor paranoia and the “worship-your-imperialist-government” cultism is immediately branded an “extremist.” It’s now “extreme,” you see, to not believe in torture and home-grown terror as a way to keep the sheeple in line. “Extremism” is now defined as opening your eyes, asking some commonsense questions, and refusing to follow the hypnotized masses as they are marched off a high cliff by the globalist population controllers. Merely thinking for yourself, it turns out, is now “extreme.” It’s a brave new world after all, I suppose. Fear and paranoia is being marketed to the public in an attempt to transform the citizenry into a grand spy ring The social acceptance of spying on your neighbors and promoting fear has reached a new fervor across America, very nearly reflecting that of Nazi Germany in the late 1930′s. It’s now okay to call 911 on somebody merely because they happen to be writing something down on a scrap of paper in a public park (that’s one of the signs of possible terrorism, according to ludicrous DHS public service videos that only breed paranoid thinking). It’s now okay to spy on everyone around you and secretly observe them to see what they’re doing. It’s now your duty to watch over every scrap of luggage at the airport and start screaming about terror threats if some poor sap walks more than 10 feet away from his bags for a few seconds. Recently, East Carolina University was thrust into a state of “lock down” for 3 hours after some spy-on-your-neighbor citizens reported a man walking around with an “assault rifle.” That assault rifle, of course, turned out to be nothing more than a black umbrella (http://www.startribune.com/nation/133964418.html). But this is the level of outrageous hallucinations and total lunatic paranoia that has been unleashed on the American people today by a fear-mongering, imperialist government which worships fear and terror with almost cult-like zealousness. And they call conspiracy theorists paranoid? Maybe they should look in the mirror sometime… no well-informed conspiracy investigator would ever mistake an umbrella for an assault rifle in broad daylight. The antidote is Trickle-Up Liberty Fortunately, there’s a ready solution to all this. The antidote to Trickle-Down Tyranny is Trickle-Up Liberty… also known as “grassroots People power.” This is what happens when ordinary, everyday citizens realize that all government power comes from the People and that government is the servant of the People, not the other way around. So they take to the streets and protest. They take their money out of the accounts of globalist banks. They stop buying GMOs. They fight against water fluoride in their local towns. They spread the word about Ron Paul. Trickle-Up Liberty is so powerful that it will sooner or later overcome Trickle-Down Tyranny… but only if enough people actually remember what liberty feels like. That’s why, as the editor of NaturalNews, I urge you to practice liberty in everything you do. Don’t settle for tyranny when you can insist on liberty! After all, the Bill of Rights guarantees you a number of extremely important rights, many of which are now being quickly eroded. Stand up for restoring those rights and you will empower the phenomenon of Trickle-Up Liberty (grassroots liberty), which is the ultimate solution against Trickle-Down Tyranny. You can also defend liberty by practicing common courtesy (and common sense) in your own positions of power. Don’t terrorize people just because you can. Exercise common human decency and compassion for those who deserve your assistance. When you practice random acts of kindness , you alter the entire emotional landscape across America, replacing fear with kindness. Replacing terror with confidence. If corporate CEOs would practice this, then… well, most corporations would probably go out of business because they’re mostly in the business of screwing people over for a profit. “There is no such thing as a victimless billionaire,” remember. That level of wealth accumulation simply doesn’t happen without taking from others in the process. But remember: In the end, kindness will always win out over terror. Spread a little around, and you’ll see what a world of difference it can really make. And try to remember not to carry black umbrellas around any liberal college campuses, or you’ll quickly find out what trickle-down tyranny really looks like.

Ola Loa is a healthy alternative to sugar-laden children’s vitamins and sports drinks

(NaturalNews) A recent report from NaturalNews about children’s vitamins and sports drinks lets you know many of the popular mainstream brands of both of these types of products contain large amounts of sugar. Several of our readers wrote asking for suggestions on what they can use to replace the sugary substances. NaturalNews publisher Mike Adams has researched this, and strongly recommends one product line which offers both a tasty yet low sugar drinkable vitamin and excellent sports drink — Ola Loa. Absorption Doctor-formulated Ola Loa vitamins come in flavored packets which you can mix with water. This offers a tremendous advantage because swallowing pills, especially large ones, can create digestive stress on the body. Many people have difficulty absorbing the nutrients contained in vitamin tablets so they receive little nutritive value for the money they spend on vitamins. Nutritional experts believe many people lose as much as 70% of the nutrient value contained in most vitamin pills. Drinking your vitamins enables your body to absorb them more easily. Compared to other powdered vitamin lines, Ola Loa offers a more complete package of vitamins and nutrients as well as a lower sugar content. Whereas some powdered vitamin products are essentially 90% sugar with only 5% nutritional value, Ola Loa reverses the proportions, delivering approximately 85% nutrients paired with only one gram of sugar. That single gram of sugar derives from fructose, not sucrose, so that Ola Loa has no effect on the body’s glycemic system. This makes it healthy for everyone, including children and diabetics. Children’s Formula Ola Loa Multivitamin formula for kids, contains no preservatives or artificial colors and provides vitamin C, selenium and zinc to protect the immune system as well as B vitamins for energy production. Ola Loa proves that it is possible to produce a great-tasting vitamin product that even kids will enjoy without using the preservatives, artificial colors or chemical sweeteners that many other companies rely on to make their products palatable to children. Sports Formula Ola Loa Sport formula provides hydration, energy electrolytes and vitamin C to provide athletes with the support they need to avoid dehydration or energy depletion after intense activity. Ola Loa Sport outperforms major sports drinks brands in delivering electrolytes as well as key restorative nutrients magnesium, folic acid and vitamin B12. Unlike those corporate-owned brands, Ola Loa contains only natural ingredients. Whereas some sports and energy drinks contain stimulants like caffeine or ephreda, Ola Loa provides a dose of the valuable antioxidant CoQ10. CoQ10 is vital to enable the mitochondria in the cells to engage in the energy reactions that they need to stay alive. The body produces some CoQ10 naturally however chronic illness can slow this biosynthesis. Also, many of pharmaceutical drugs, particularly statins, Big Pharma’s pseudo-solution to high cholesterol, inhibit the body’s production of CoQ10. Consuming CoQ10 in a drinkable form provides cellular rather than artificial energy. Ola Loa also stands out from its competitors in offering a healthier form of vitamin B12. Many vitamin products use a form of B12 known as cyanocobalamin. This less expensive version of B12 can be toxic, especially for people who have low antioxidant protection. In high doses, it can cause neurologic problems and even blindness. Ola Loa uses a different form of B12, hydroxycobalamin, which does not have this potential toxicity and which permits the body to utilize the energy benefits of B12 more readily. Instant Benefits Since Ola Loa formulas are drinkable, they offer the same instant energy boost as sublingual vitamins. People who drink Ola Loa often report an instant boost in energy and mood. If you were one of the many people who asked NaturalNews for suggestions on healthy alternatives, Ola Loa is the perfect choice.

CDC caught in blatant lies about pandemics and vaccines

(NaturalNews) The CDC relies on an authoritative presence to influence not just USA health policy, but world health policy. This prestigious presence also demands more federal funding, which is being questioned. It seems that the CDC’s research, practices, and expenditures have been under scrutiny lately. Although very few know of what has been hidden from public view regarding CDC investigations, there may soon be too much dirt for the White House to cover up completely. Remembering the 2008 swine flu hoax Remember all those pandemic forecasts from the CDC when different high numbers of swine flu outbreaks were reported? A CBS News program called “Washington Unplugged” wanted to know more details on how those figures were derived, but the CDC stonewalled that reporter. To his credit, he went around the CDC by surveying each individual state’s health agency, and he discovered that very few swine flu cases reported by the CDC were confirmed as swine flu. Most were actually a normal “seasonal” flu. The discrepancy between CDC swine flu statistics and actual confirmed cases was too large to considered sloppy record keeping. Upon further pressure from “Washington Unplugged” news producer, the CDC clamped down more and decided they couldn’t track swine flu cases anymore because “it was too difficult.” The CDC quit doing what they’re supposed to do because they got caught cooking the swine flu stats. This was a rare case of kudos for the mainstream media. For those paying attention, it flagged the CDC’s bogus promotion of swine flu shots for a flu that hardly existed and that many considered less dangerous than a normal seasonal flu . CDC lies about mercury in vaccines From investigative reporter Tim Bolen of The Bolen Report’s two part article “The CDC Has Known All Along How Dangerous Vaccines Are – And Has Covered It Up” (sourced below). As early as 1998 the CDC knew that there were problems with using thimerosal mercury in vaccines. This was especially true with the ever increasing childhood vaccination schedule. Their own researchers turned in a internal draft stating this. The CDC decided to cover this up by hiring fake studies to explain away those mercury links to the rising autism rates. The earliest misleading study was the “Danish Study,” masterminded for the CDC by Kreesten Madsen, whose partner Paul Thorsen has recently been indicted for fraudulent funding activities. This epidemiological study became the cornerstone for the foundation of lies “proving” thimerosal was not a factor for causing autism or other childhood developmental disabilities. Bolen adds, “Even the US Congress began to smell the CDC stink and investigated.” A congressional committee released a 2003 report called Mercury in Medicine – Taking Unnecessary Risks . The report pdf can be seen here: http://vaccines.procon.org/sourcefiles/Burton_Report.pdf Congressman Dan Burton headed the investigation. He had a grandchild who was vaccinated then became autistic, and he was ruthless with vaccine industry and CDC representatives while he presided over hearings. The appropriate findings and excellent suggestions were ignored by the Bush administration and the CDC. Bolen wondered where anti-vaccination activist Bobby Kennedy, Jr. got a one in six figure for developmentally challenged children. Then he came across a bulletin from the CDC and American Academy of Pediatrics issued in 2004 entitled Autism A.L.A.R.M. (source below) which stated that one in six children had developmental/behavioral issues while one in 166 were diagnosed with an autistic disorder. Tim Bolen estimates that from 1998 to 2011, close to 12 million children worldwide have been afflicted with autism, making the worldwide autism ratio one out of 111 children. The CDC claims they don’t understand how this is all happening. They just know it is. The full title of the CDC is Center for Disease Control and Prevention. They’re very heavily funded but clueless about autism and developmental disorders on the rise? Ten billion and asking for more In 2007 Senator Tom Coburn issued a report titled CDC Off Center (source below). The report cites huge mismanagement of funds for non-disease related expenses, generous payrolls, overly lavish facilities, and trips wasting funds on frivolous disease control issues while unable to explain how they are preventing disease. CBS did a special report on Coburn’s report, and mentioned that even then (2007) the CDC was asking the US Government for an additional billion dollars to its $10 billion dollar budget. See where the money goes on this TV report here: http://www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=3010130n David and Goliath A Ph.D biochemist, Brian Hooker, whose son became autistic after a series of vaccinations, has recently filed a suit against the CDC for violating the Freedom of Information Act by not releasing data he has been requesting since 2005 regarding CDC studies that dismissed mercury vaccine dangers. According to Bolen, Hooker is going in with top gun lawyers in the Washington, DC loop. He has given the CDC an ultimatum to release the documents he wants by late October 2011. This could be interesting.

Vitamins are deadly? Media hoax exposed, part two

(NaturalNews) Yesterday, we published a groundbreaking article exposing the total media hoax that has been running in the mainstream media over the past week or so. The hoax involved a fraudulent study using altered data which claimed to show that “vitamins are deadly!” But the actual data from the study didn’t reach that conclusion at all, and the mainstream media reporting on this was little more than a collection of outright lies and willfully engineered disinformation . Read that report here: http://www.naturalnews.com/033883_vitamins_mortality_risk.html Today we continue with part two of exposing this malicious media hoax, which was designed (of course) to scare people away from taking vitamins while at the same time feeding them propaganda stories that encourage everyone to get their vaccine shots, eat their GMOs, and take their chemotherapy. According to the mainstream media, you see, poisons are good for you, but nutrition is deadly. Minerals, they claim, might kill you. But being injected with a vaccine using aluminum adjuvants and mercury preservatives is actually GOOD for you, they insist! Here’s the real truth: Vitamins won’t kill you, but pharmaceutical definitely do Of course, the biggest hoax in all this is that there has never been a single confirmed case of a vitamin killing anyone, and yet FDA-approved pharmaceuticals kill at least 100,000 Americans every year! (http://www.naturalnews.com/019406_business_ethics_big_pharma.html) Does the mainstream media report on all the dead Americans killed by deadly medications? Of course not. Never mind that the number of Americans killed by medications dwarfs the total body count from all acts of alleged terrorism in the history of our nation (http://www.naturalnews.com/009278.html). Never mind that twice as many Americans die each year from FDA-approved pharmaceuticals as died in the entire Vietnam War. Never mind that even the FDA’s own top scientist — Dr. David Graham — blew the whistle on the total corruption of science within the FDA, revealing how just one drug (Vioxx) was proven to cause over 60,000 heart attacks , many of which killed people. (http://www.naturalnews.com/011401.html) Does the mainstream media report on the hundreds of Americans who die every day in America from pharmaceuticals? Not a chance. Instead, they try to focus people on the false idea that “vitamins will kill you,” even though there isn’t a shred of reliable evidence to support the idea that a single death has ever been caused by a vitamin (even a synthetic vitamin). The media hoax, you see, is found not only in the lies they tell you , but also in the truths they refuse to tell you . This whole story about vitamins being dangerous is a sleight-of-press distraction to take your focus away from the things that are really killing people (vaccines, medications, chemotherapy) and try to make you focus on the things that aren’t (vitamins and dietary supplements). It’s classic CIA-style social engineering, brought to you by the mainstream media which has become “the least trusted news source on the planet.” Research scientists just invent whatever data they want, and it routinely gets published in “scientific” medical journals There’s something rather hilarious and pathetic about the drug-pushing, vaccine-pimping “scientists” that dominate (quack) medicine today: They don’t care how sloppy or fraudulent the science really is as long as it’s in their favor . Heck, when they don’t get the data they want from conducting real science, they just invent whatever data they want! This is what Dr. Scott Reuben did — a key researcher for Pfizer and Merck. He literally just dreamed up whatever data he wanted and authored over twenty studies which were published in mainstream medical journals — even though they were all complete fraud! (http://www.naturalnews.com/028194_Scott_Reuben_research_fraud.html) These were then cited by literally thousands of other research papers , many of which were also fraudulent themselves. This is how Big Pharma’s medical system works: One round of fraudulent studies cites another round of fraudulent studies until they’ve built up something that appears to be a well-referenced body of research but which is actually based entirely on fabricated junk science. Ah, but who cares? Who cares that the research is complete fraud? As long as the media can scare people away from vitamins, that’s what really counts, you see. They don’t care that it’s all a complete hoax because they know that 99% of their readers will never check the facts for themselves . Most people will just swallow whatever media lies are shoved at them, without even a hint of skepticism. Facts are stubborn things After all, who cares about facts anymore? Facts are inconvenient when you’re trying to convince the world population to stay sick and diseased all the time so you can sell ‘em more of your patented, monopoly-priced prescription poisons. They can’t just come right out and tell the truth, you see — that would destroy the pharmaceutical industry. Instead, they have to fabricate a whole system of lies which are then backed up by the criminal, repugnant FDA and then parroted in the mindless mainstream media. Here’s another inconvenient fact that nobody in the mainstream whore media bothered to tell you: FACT: The sample size of the women taking copper in this study was a grand total of: 24 people by the end of the study. Twenty-four people? Yeah, that’s reported in table 4 on page six of the study: There were 30 women taking copper in 1986 when the study began. This increased to 57 women in 1997, then decreased to 24 women in 2004 – 2008, when the study ended. So from 24 women, and through the voodoo manipulation of the data, this study concludes that copper has a 50% increase in mortality. Wow, that’s some pretty stunning science fraud. Sort of idiotic, actually. It would earn you an “F” in high school science class if you tried to pull this off. Yet the mainstream media reports this as if it were rock-solid science. In doing so, all they do is just embarrass themselves and show what science morons their own reporters still are. Most of these newspapers and newsstand magazines you see claiming to cover the news should actually be filed in the “fiction” category at booksellers. The complete scientific ignorance of mainstream journalists Sometimes I wonder what it takes to be a corporate-controlled journalist these days. First, it requires that you be a complete moron on topics such as biochemistry, food, agriculture, nutrition, basic science, the environment, economics, the money supply and of course world history . It’s almost as if mainstream media journalists are comprised of people who have been voluntarily lobotomized so that they now “qualify” to write for the dumbed-down media. More importantly, being a mainstream media “whore” journalist requires that you get really, really comfortable telling lies for your corporate masters. Whatever you’re told to write, you just write it, even if you know it’s a total lie. And if you’re directed to destroy somebody in an interview — like Anderson Cooper tried to do with Dr. Wakefield — you just do it on command like a good little Nazi soldier. That’s why, with very few exceptions, the Anderson Coopers, the Bill O’Reillys, and the AP and Reuters reporters that dominate the old dinosaur media today are really just social engineers who are being used as pawns in a system of total corporate disinformation designed to keep you sick, diseased and enslaved to a medical monopoly which actually goes out of its way to destroy nutritional knowledge and therefore promote nutritional illiteracy . There’s no other word for it: Mainstream media journalists are nutritionally illiterate . So are nearly all mainstream doctors. So are most conventional scientists. So are most people! The nutritional knowledge which could have been used to prevent probably 80% of all chronic, degenerative disease in America has been censored, suppressed, shuttered or destroyed by the medical establishment working in cahoots with the FDA and the mainstream media. They have actually gone out of their way to make sure everybody “stays stupid” when it comes to vitamins, minerals and phytochemicals. Your vaccine IS your multivitamin, yo! The whole point of this is to keep people enslaved in a system of medical domination where they think of “nutrients” as being things they are found in prescription medications. Some people think blood-thinning drugs are “nutrients,” and they pop their medications as if they were candy, sometimes taking a dozen or more dangerous prescription medications every single day. This is what the conventional medical industry wants you to think of as “nutrition.” Vaccines are nutrition, too, didn’t you know? You are incomplete without them! If you want to be whole, you must allow yourself to be repeatedly injected with all kinds of vaccines. At least that’s what the medical establishment wants you to believe. It’s all, of course, a complete pack of lies. Nutrition doesn’t come from your doctor. Your doctor is most likely a complete and total moron when it comes to nutrition. That’s why he’s more likely to die before you do, because when he gets sick, he won’t take vitamin D and eat natural sources of vitamin C and zinc to boost immune function. No, he’s more likely to swallow his own antibiotics, then develop a superbug infection in his lungs or gut, and then die from pneumonia or cancer while being pumped full of poisons by his own colleagues who have also been totally brainwashed into thinking prescription drugs are nutrients. Dead doctors don’t lie. And they’re dying in record numbers these days because they keep taking their own deadly medicines while avoiding anything that smacks of “holistic” nutrition or the healing arts. NaturalNews readers get all that. They really get it. That’s why they drink superfood smoothies, take natural dietary supplements and don’t watch mainstream television news on the idiot box. And that’s why NaturalNews readers will outlive all the dumbed-down consumers of mainstream television — people who, like a character from the movie Idiocracy, say “Vitamins will kill me? OW my balls!” (http://www.naturalnews.com/021558_Idiocracy_Hollywood.html) Vitamins will kill you, but vaccines are good nutrition! As you ponder all this, keep in mind that the mainstream media is the same wretched group of retreads who tell you that vaccines are good for you! Oh yeah, here’s the scoop: Vitamins just might kill you, so don’t take those. But vaccines could save your life! So get injected with those as much as possible! (Seriously…) And GMOs are good for you too, uh-huh. And chemotherapy is good, too. You should get both your breasts cut off even if you don’t have breast cancer, the LA Times reported (http://www.naturalnews.com/011116_breast_cancer_double_mastectomy.html). That’s how you “prevent” breast cancer, apparently. Perhaps all these journalists should take their own advice and prevent brain cancer by cutting off their own heads? It would not materially affect the quality of their reporting, it seems. Even a machine can hit copy and paste on a pharma-funded press release. Who needs humans to do it if there’s no thinking involved? The mainstream media thinks all their readers are stupid It’s true: The MSM thinks their readers are stupid. And to some extent, they are correct because most of the intelligent people in the world have stopped reading or watching the mainstream media as a source of information. They’ve realized they are constantly being lied to by media institutions which are, themselves, funded in large part by pharmaceutical advertising and the financial interests of the corporate global elite. Did you ever wonder why the media’s coverage of Fukushima was such a downplay of the actual events that took place there? One reason is because General Electric built the Fukushima nuclear power plants while also owning key mainstream media disinfo outlets such as NBC, CNBC and MSNBC (http://la.indymedia.org/news/2003/04/47530.php). Do you really think these media giants which receive hundreds of millions of dollars a year in advertising revenue from drug companies will ever tell the truth about how nutrition can eliminate your need for pharmaceuticals? Of course not! How the drug companies bought off the media Look at this chart of the rise in direct-to-consumer drug advertising expenditures: http://www.openmedicine.ca/article/view/23/26 The Congressional Budget Office has even done research on the astonishing financial ties between the drug companies and the mainstream media. Here’s what they concluded (http://www.cbo.gov/ftpdocs/105xx/doc10522/12-02-DrugPromo_Brief.pdf) “Pharmaceutical manufacturers spent at least $20.5 billion on promotional activities in 2008.3 Detailing to physicians, nurse practitioners, and physicians’ assistants cost $12 billion, accounting for more than half of that promotional spending (see Figure 1). Drug companies spent another $3.4 billion sponsoring professional meetings and events and about $0.4 billion placing advertisements in professional journals. Pharmaceutical manufacturers spent the rest of their promotional budgets, $4.7 billion in 2008, on direct-to-consumer advertising. To place those figures in context, the Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America (PhRMA) estimated that, among its members, domestic sales of pharmaceuticals and medicines totaled $189 billion in 2008 and domestic spending on research and development totaled $38 billion.” Did you catch that? $4.7 billion in advertising through the mainstream media … and that was in 2008 (it’s much larger now). This also reveals that drug companies spent $12 billion bribing doctors , $3.4 billion running doctor “education camps” that promote more drugs, and $400 million corrupting medical journals. So we’re supposed to believe that none of this money has any influence on the Archives of Internal Medicine nor the mainstream media outlets which ran this media hoax that “vitamin will kill you?” Seriously? The media fails to disclose its own financial ties to drug interests How could any mainstream media journalist miss all this? Have they forgotten how to read? Or even how to think? Reporting on this vitamin study while failing to mention all the financial ties between the drug industry and the mainstream media itself is sort of like reporting on the Titanic’s maiden voyage across the Atlantic but failing to mention it sank . The media cover-up IS the story here! The financial corruption of the medical journals IS the story! The hoaxing of the population with a completely fabricated story based on quack science is actually one of the biggest stories of the year. And yet, obviously no one in the mainstream media will report a story based on an investigation of the total financial corruption of the mainstream media itself. That’s why people read alternative news sources like NaturalNews. Because they know we haven’t been bought off by some big corporate interests. You will never see Pfizer being a sponsor of NaturalNews, for example. Nor some GMO company or anyone else pushing poison. (If you do see a Google ad on our site from a pharma company, let us know and we’ll ban them. We’ve already banned hundreds…) Plus, we’re not corporate whores, thank goodness. That sounds like a tiring job, just churning out total disinformation for the elite corporate interests during the day, and then going home at night, looking in the mirror and hating your life. But that’s what thousands of mainstream media journalists do every single day: They LIE to their readers to collect a paycheck, and then they go home and wonder why they even bothered to get a degree in journalism in the first place, since virtually nobody in the whore media bothers to practice real journalism anymore. It’s kind of a cushy job, actually: Take press releases from the White House, drug companies or medical journals, rewrite a sentence or two, slap your name on it, and you’ve “written” your story for the day! No research (or thinking) is even necessary. No need to make a single phone call, and there’s no need to check facts since they’ve already been provided to you by the corporate media relations whores who also push lies for a paycheck. “Reporting the news” in the mainstream media is little more than taking corporate globalist press releases and repackaging them as “news” without engaging in any fact checking or independent research whatsoever. It’s an embarrassment to the whole field of journalism, actually. Want real journalism? Get it from alternative news sources Reporting the real news takes far more effort than just copying and pasting press releases or White House propaganda. For starters, we have to think for ourselves . And when we report the news, we don’t use teleprompters and we don’t read scripts . Watch InfoWars Nightly News sometime (www.InfoWarsNews.com) and you’ll notice that none of us are reading from teleprompters. We don’t have scripts. We analyze current events in real time, in a LIVE video studio, with no scripts, no makeup, no special wardrobe and no big corporate sponsors. That’s real journalism, folks. Here’s a video of me hosting it recently (and yeah, I mess up sometimes, because I’m not reading a teleprompter): http://naturalnews.tv/v.asp?v=A8AA1909025FBC8815D447D7C8E41851 Alex Jones, Aaron Dykes and others also host InfoWars Nightly News, where you’ll learn the hard-hitting truth about all kinds of subjects, from health freedom and vaccines to government corruption and the push for war. We don’t have the super slick graphics, the big corporate sponsors, nor the wink and the nod from government “authorities.” Instead, we have independent, intelligent analysis of events that really matter . That’s something you just can’t get anymore from USA Today, TIME, the LA Times, the NY Times or any other mainstream media outlet. They simply can’t afford to report the truth — it would get their ad revenues and put them out of business. Think about that for a second, and realize that every major player in the entire mainstream media only exists because they continue to serve a strategic role in pushing propaganda for powerful corporations or political interests. There is no more “news” in the news. It’s all just a tapestry of lies and half-truths woven from the never-ending stream of disinformation that keeps the drug companies raking in profits from preventable degenerative disease. The mainstream media, ultimately, doesn’t want you to be informed. They want you to be obedient.

Zombie training? OWS Atlanta turns into collective hypnosis ‘one voice’ weirdness

(NaturalNews) Occupy Wall Street protesters are undergoing collectivist zombie training in Atlanta, where a large group was caught on film engaging in a weird sort of “one voice” hypnotic chanting ritual that characterizes the key principles of both Communism and Socialism. Watch the video at: http://naturalnews.tv/v.asp?v=8B371A69A44EC94AF36F00002647DBBC Having an extensive background in studying linguistics and human psychology, I recognize mass hypnosis when I see it. The mind-numbing call-and-return vocalizations captured in this video reflect the same kind of mind control techniques used in cults, sporting events and even some church revival events. The whole point of this experience is to eliminate the individual mind and train everyone to think, and say, and do exactly what they are told to do by a “leaderless leader” who is really a mind control manipulator. Bending the will of the masses Watch this video. What you’re seeing is classic mind control, shrouded in the context of a public protest. And yet these people are practicing the very same thing they claim to be protesting! What is that? The centralization of power in America . That’s the whole problem with Wall Street, and Congress, and the mega corporations — they all concentrate power in the hands of the few while everyone else just follows along and does what they’re told. This is a perfectly reflection of this hypnosis “zombie training” ritual at which one person holding the loudspeaker utters one verbal command after another as each one is repeated en masse by the crowd of clueless followers. That’s much like the relationship between the Federal Reserve and U.S. bank account holders. Free-thinking individuals do not engage in this kind of behavior! If I had witnessed this in person, I would have shouted out, “You are all zombies!” at which point I’m sure I would probably need my zombie defender flamethrower to roast the mindless masses as they tried to swarm over me with their “one mind” attack. Watch this video and see for yourself. This is some really weird collectivist mind control stuff that should make you absolutely shudder: http://naturalnews.tv/v.asp?v=8B371A69A44EC94AF36F00002647DBBC Now, I don’t have anything against a group of peaceful meditators who want to sit in a drum circle somewhere and pray for world peace. I’ve been part of plenty of that myself, and it’s a valuable exercise in positive intention. But when it comes down to restructuring society , you’ve got to engage the individual creative minds of intelligent men and woman who can debate ideas from a position of individual sovereignty, not some sort of collective hive mind engaging in weird zombie chants. A brief transcript of the Atlanta zombie protesters Here’s a taste of how the hypnotic trance ritual unfolded in Atlanta. Keep in mind the “leader” is on a loudspeaker so that his voice drowns out everyone else’s, even though he claims that everyone should be equally heard… Leader: We have someone here… Zombies: We have someone here… Leader: Who would like to address the assembly. Zombies: Who would like to address the assembly. Leader: That person… Zombies: That person… Leader: is Congressman… Zombies: is Congressman… Leader: John Lewis. Zombies: John Lewis. At this point, the crowd erupts into spontaneous applause for Rep. John Lewis. But the zombie leader feels this spontaneous action on the part of the crowd is some sort of violation of the groupthink, so he proceeds to instruct people that they should feel bad about applauding, because the sound of their applause might have been so loud that someone who was trying to speak could not be hard. (Bizarre zombie logic? Because this zombie leader is blaring his voice over a loudspeaker…) Leader: How do we feel… Zombies: How do we feel… Leader: with hand signs please. Zombies: with hand signs please. Leader: Let me take a moment… Zombies: Let me take a moment… Leader: to explain why… Zombies: to explain why… Leader: we use hand signs. Zombies: we use hand signs. Leader: Clapping… Zombies: Clapping… Leader: can prevent someone else… Zombies: can prevent someone else… Leader: who is addressing the assembly… Zombies: who is addressing the assembly… Leader: from being heard. Zombies: from being heard. Leader: We want everyone’s voice… Zombies: We want everyone’s voice… Leader: to be heard. Zombies: to be heard. Leader: To signal approval… Zombies: To signal approval… Leader: wave your hands or your fingers… Zombies: wave your hands or your fingers… Leader: or do a thumbs up. Zombies: or do a thumbs up. Leader: That way… Zombies: That way… Leader: We can hear each other. Zombies: We can hear each other. At one point, a female audience member is allows to stand and explain her own weird “we are all the same” philosophy of why the group should allow Rep. John Lewis to speak: Woman: Allowing Senator Lewis to speak… (she thinks he’s a Senator, apparently) Zombies: Allowing Senator Lewis to speak… Woman: does not make him a better human being. Zombies: does not make him a better human being. Woman: it just says… Zombies: it just says… Woman: that we respect the work he’s done… Zombies: that we respect the work he’s done… Woman: and we respect the position he holds… Zombies: and we respect the position he holds… Woman: in the government we want to change. Zombies: in the government we want to change. Woman: People like John Lewis… Zombies: People like John Lewis… Woman: has just as much right… Zombies: has just as much right… Woman: to be part of the change… Zombies: to be part of the change… Woman: as to be part of the problem. Zombies: as to be part of the problem. After this woman finishes speaking, large numbers of other people in the zombie crowd raise their hands as if they want to speak. They are waving their arms and hands like a bunch of kindergarteners who are asking for permission to go to the bathroom . Seriously, these are a bunch of adults acting with an elementary school mentality combined with a weird hypnotic role playing trance where they all believe they are contributing to a collective hive of some sort. Ultimately, after what seems like endless rounds of ridiculous vocalizing about whether Rep. John Lewis should be “allowed” to speak or not, they diss the man and “decide” that he shouldn’t speak at all! So this man, who was already voted into office as a representative of the People, is not allowed to address the People? Even when the zombie leader on the loudspeaker says “everyone” should be heard? I mean, hey, I probably disagree with Rep. John Lewis on just about everything he says, but I still support his right to speak in public as a representative of the people who elected him! Who are these brain-numbed zombie masses to prevent a member of Congress from saying a few words? Why collectivism is so dangerous Watching all this gives me the willies! This is a prime example of “the madness of crowds” and the dangerous collectivist mindset that deludes these people into thinking whatever they do is for “the common good.” Total Marxism is alive and well in Atlanta, it seems, and it’s led by a bunch of do-gooder trance-inducers who somehow manage to attract a group of willing followers who just can’t wait to be told what to say and think. They’re even commanded to use hand signs instead of applause. These are the kind of people who destroy societies. Well, them and the criminal banksters who run Wall Street, too. On that point, the zombies are right that the banksters are crooks. But you don’t solve these problems by replacing one delusion with another. The only path to true freedom is found in protecting individual liberty which necessarily involves protecting the individual right to speak your mind without seeking permission from some kind of weird collectivist groupthink . The whole point of free individuals having both their First Amendment and Second Amendment rights is that each person is their own sovereign citizen who has the right, and the power, to exercise freedom, protect the innocent, seek justice and stand as a bastion of strength and individual liberty against a sea of conformist, brainwashed masses whether they be tyrannical governments or mind-numbed zombies. The whole point of having a Second Amendment, of course, is so that we can protect ourselves from zombies and tyrants who attempt to overrun nations with disturbing regularity. The Second Amendment is what protects the First Amendment, because if the People didn’t have the ability to shoot back, they would very quickly lose their right to speak out. It’s not the collapse that you should worry about; it’s the rebuilding of society that comes after All this reminds me to remind you that once the collapse of America is in full swing, NaturalNews will put out a call for patriots and lovers of liberty to take action and interject yourself into the discussions of how we rebuild society. The danger — the great danger in all this — is that after the collapse of our current system, the collectivist zombies will take control and we will end up with something far, far worse than the crony capitalism we have today. If you thought George Bush and his secret prisons were bad, just imagine Nancy Pelosi leading a national zombie chant, declaring that anyone earning over $125,000 a year should have their wealth confiscated; that Free Speech is now subject to government approval; that everyone except the government should be completely disarmed; and that individual liberty must be sacrificed for the “common good of the People.” These are all code words for outright government tyranny. Remember: Just because our current system is headed for collapse doesn’t mean we’re automatically going to get something better in its place. If we want a truly free and just society, we will have to fight for it . We will need the Jeffersonians, the Ron Paul supporters, the liberty lovers and the freedom fighters to take decisive action in making sure our “Next Society” doesn’t end up becoming some sort of weird collectivist cult led by people like Michael Moore. Just because the People are pissed off doesn’t mean they understand the principles of liberty and economic growth. Many protesters, remember, actually believe that governments create jobs! (Hilarious.) And that everybody can just be given free health care, free educations, free rent, and free everything under a nanny state system where the government controls everything they do. While I agree that education should be provided by one generation for the benefit of the next (in other words, all education is free when you’re young, but you pay it forward to the next generation), I also understand that the key to economic growth is reducing government burdens on small businesses — especially in the realm of health care. We’ve got to get government out of the way and let America’s great entrepreneurs create jobs and create wealth. That only happens when liberty is assured; when power is decentralized; and when regulatory burdens are minimized to cover only the really important things like preventing corporations from dumping toxic chemicals into the rivers and so on. Most ideas about how to run society are BAD ideas People have all sorts of weird ideas about how to run societies, but history has shown us that most of them are ill-conceived. Furthermore, tyranny always comes out of good intentions , so it’s not enough to just “intend” to create a utopian society. It comes down to HOW you structure it. What Jefferson and America’s founding fathers understood is that all power tends to become concentrated over time in the hands of the few . Thus, the Declaration of Independence — and later the Bill of Rights — were all written to decentralize power by placing it in the hands of sovereign citizens from which government was granted its power to protect the rights of the People . The power of government stems solely from the power of the People who conditionally grant such power to the government. This is the polar opposite of what collectivists believe: They think that power begins with a central authority and then it is distributed to the obedient masses from there. That’s why so many OWS protesters are still calling for big government to solve all their problems… they still believe government rules over them and therefore has the authority to fix everything! Watch my increasingly popular video “Freetopia” to get a better understanding of all this: http://naturalnews.tv/v.asp?v=16899B46FEB0BBE3E322E75EA08442A8 Beware of collectivism Only through the interaction of individual thought — brought forth by free men and women — can we truly achieve a brighter future. Those who try to sell you (or hypnotize you) to believe in socialism, communism, Marxism or other “groupthink” solutions are terribly misled and have failed to read (or understand) history. Liberty is the only path to lasting freedom and economic abundance. End the Fed! Bring the money supply back to the People: http://endthefedusa.ning.com/ Support States’ rights! The Tenth Amendment helps halt the federal takeover of local laws: http://www.TenthAmendmentCenter.com Support Ron Paul! He’s the only candidate who understands freedom and is willing to protect it: http://www.RonPaul2012.com Join the protests! Let your voice be heard as a pro-freedom, pro-Ron Paul liberty defender who believes in food freedom (raw milk), farm freedom (hemp farming), medical freedom (medicinal herbs), economic freedom (honest money) and individual freedom (Bill of Rights). Carry the signs, shoot videos and upload them to NaturalNews.TV if you wish. This is how we achieve real, lasting change — by starting with just showing up and making sure the protests aren’t dominated by a bunch of collectivist zombies who utterly fail to understand what freedom really means. Repeat after me: Freedom is… You: Freedom is… Me: …when you don’t do… You: …when you don’t do… Me: …what somebody tells you to do… You: …what somebody tells you to do… Me: …just because they claim false authority over you. You: …just because they claim false authority over you. There, doesn’t that feel better? Think for yourself! And beware of zombies.
