History of the World Year 1-2009. The real story.
As reported by Don Cordell July 2009.
In the beginning there was nothing,
then came the leaders (the bully with the biggest club). Then there was light,
but that created CO2 to generate the light, so Taxes were invented to fund
the Leader, and his friends (Congress, Senate, etc). Since the leaders knew how
you should live, (not live as They do) they started making what they called
LAWS.
As time went on, the Ruler, Bully,
King, Dictator, Congress, Senate, on and on, invented more Taxes, Fee’s,
Permits, Licenses, and other ways to take your money.
These Rulers decided they own all
that can be seen, the Ground, above and below, and if you want to use this
land, you can buy (rent) it from the Rulers.
Even after you have bought the
land, now the Ruler will tell you what you can do on your land. (Your Land?).
In many communities the Rulers can
tell you what kind of house or building you can have, and what color it can be painted,
how you must landscape your property, and how deep down you own the land.
Usually just on top of the soil.
Oh! did I mention if you do not pay
yearly Taxes on the Property you bought from the Ruler, the Ruler takes it
back. So did you think you actually owned anything, or are you just leasing
that land?
So in the year 1620 some brave
people looking for Freedom from the Rulers, decided to try their chances and
sailed across the ocean blue. They landed on some land, inhabited by Savages.
(never mind they were here first) and decided to show the Savages how to really
live. No more tents, and Tee Pees, no more “Freedom for the Savages” (Native
Americans) to live as they had. A year
later these new invaders (ancestors of mine) invited the Native Americans to
join then in a typical European celebration called Thanksgiving, all were well,
all was right in the country.
The Savages only shared the land,
living wherever they wanted to live, with no Taxes. That was too simple, so the
new arrivals offered the Native Americans cloth, metal tools, and other items
common to people from England. Hey the Native Americans were getting material
goods for land they didn’t know they owned. So far; so good. Now the Rulers let
their companions who arrived on the same ship, to own land they just took from
the Native Americans, if you paid the “Ruler” money for that land.
That seems like a good deal, take
land (treaty agreement) and sell it to your companions, and pocket the money
for yourself.
Now you are the Master, in charge
of every aspect of the new life. More expansion, more immigrants, more citizens
to tax, what a deal!
Now this was not just new in the
North America Continent, this had been going on all over the world, for
generations, since the beginning. So Standard Operating Procedure as they call
it. Citizens labored to make things to sell, or services to be paid for their
work. OH did I forget to mention, you owe some of that to the Rulers too.
Called Income Taxes.
The government under power of the
big Ruler, sends his bullies out in to the field to see how far he can
confiscate more land, to sell to you. He confiscates, he sells, you buy, he
taxes, you pay. This is called civilization? Or something like that.
Now a citizen decides that if you
do not have your own business to make items to sell, he will pay you to come to
his business, and work for him, so he can make and sell more. His business gets
bigger, and he makes more money, and he pays taxes. You pay taxes, the Big
Ruler loves this plan, and says; you must pay a Business Tax to operate in my
community, a Gross Receipts Tax, and More Taxes. Oh! if you sell alcohol, you
must pay a tax for running an Ordinary (Bar) and a tax on alcohol.
Now the Big Ruler hires compatriots
to watch over all the operations, deciding what you can make, how much you are
polluting the community, and taxes you what is now called Cap and Trade, to
control pollution. Get the drift? How does the Big Ruler convince you, he must
control you? AH he says, its getting warmer, so I’ll claim it’s your fault and
tax you to end the Global Warming that scientist all agree has nothing to do
with CO2.
(Carbon Dioxide), that all plants need to grow, as the plants use the Carbon,
and releases the Oxygen for you to breath, Nice plan, isn’t it. Just pay taxes,
and it’s all yours.
Time goes on and the people rise up
and say; NO MORE! Ah! Now we are free, you do not have to pay the Big Ruler
Taxes anymore, you will now pay the taxes to the NEW Big Ruler, called
the President, Congress, Senate, Ward Chiefs, Assembly men, City Council,
Mayor, Dog Catcher, Trash Collector, and so on. Now life is great.
You have the right to Free Speech
(as long as you don’t offend anyone, or threaten the government, (Sedition Act
1797/1918), you have the right to Worship as you desire; the right to defend
yourself? (no not really, just call the Big Ruler and he will send someone
(cops) to protect you when they find time to get around to you) Be careful you
do not hurt the person trying to hurt you; self-defense is not fair to the
criminal. You have the right to be secure from search and seizure of your
property, unless the government thinks you might have anything they do not
believe you should have. You have the right not to convict yourself by
admitting you have done wrong, (unless its Congress or the Senate, then you can
be held in Contempt for refusing to tell on yourself, but your Free?)
Your Big Ruler promises that to
find you guilty they have to have witnesses to prove you did wrong, Hey that
conflicts with the Big Rulers plans to protect our nation, so IF the Big Ruler
believes you are a threat to him, you can be sent to Summer Camp (rex84/year
round FEMA camps) to learn the correct way to believe, and since we now believe
that brutality is OK, you may be convinced “or else” that your Big Ruler is
correct and you are wrong.
Now the Big Ruler knows that
commerce is the life blood of the community, so if that land and home or
business you own is in the way of Progress, so you must give up your property for
the good of the community, (called Eminent Domain protection under the Bill of
Rights, you do not have that right anymore). Costco, Walmart, Kmart, Target,
etc rules, after all they have paid the politicians a lot of money for these
rights. Stop complaining, and help the Big Ruler make your community a better
(Retail) place to live.
So now we get to the Industrial
Revolution, (working for someone else, who gets rich from your labors). That
person gives you 2 cents an hour and sells your time to someone else for 10
cent an hour. He pockets the 8 cents profit, but then he pays the Big Ruler 25%
of that money, and you pay the Big Ruler 25% of your 2 cents. Everybody wins,
or something like that.
Now we have what is called Big
Government, who now has over 1,000,000 laws about how you must live in this
Free country.
It gets more interesting, if you
keep your money at home, someone will steal it, so Mr. Big Rulers friend says;
there are no money lenders anymore on the street corner, so I will open an
office (and call it a Bank) and let you give me your money, which I promise to
protect, and I will give you 1% interest while I have your money. Now I will
become the Money Lender, and let other citizens borrow your money that you gave
me for safe keeping, and I’ll charge the money borrower at 20% interest, plus
(plural) Fees for asking for the loan, and if the borrowers fail to pay me
back, I’ll just close the doors of the Bank, and Convince Congress and the
Senate to pay me the money I lost, taken from the Taxes the Big Ruler took from
you. Oh they still don’t have the money to give to you, you lost your money
above a certain amount. Congress didn’t lose a cent.
Now the big Industrial business
makes more money, but they are buddies with the Big Ruler who says, Welcome,
you bring jobs to our community so we will cut your taxes, and give you special
consideration, for a few pennies under the table to enhance Big Rulers life
style. Now the Bankers decided that if we Print money on Paper, do away with
Gold and Silver, or anything of real value, and we can control all the
citizens, if we control all the money.
So now we have the Federal Reserve
Banking system, which has nothing to do with the Federal Government. The
so-called American money (paper) says “Federal Reserve Note”. Not “Silver
Certificate”. Where is our silver? Gone to the Federal Government vaults, for
safekeeping. (safe from you). Now we find the Federal Reserve rulers (the
Really BIG
Rulers), are buddies with the other Really Big Rulers (Bankers) in the world. They now
tell the Little Rulers (President, King, Dictator) that we the Bankers are
running the show, and you will do as we say, or we will shut down your
government. No Gold or Silver, or Platinum, or Copper, or anything precious of
value. All nations now use Paper Money, so much better for the government. Then
the Really Big Ruler says, I want to know what you have in the bank, so you
must give the bank your code number, (Social Security Number) so we the Big
Ruler knows how much money you didn’t spend, so we can take more of it.
So starting with the Industrial
Revolution, a Revolution in who controls what happened. The Robber Barons, of
Wall Street NY, decided to control everything, so they needed to finance the
political campaigns of “who ran for Political Office”, now you can vote for
crook #1, or crook #2, Nothing like having Friends in high power positions. Now
these Robber Barons of other countries decided to complete the circle and form
a committee called the TriLateral Commission, nicknamed the Bilderberg Group,
because they met in some town called Bilderberg at one time. This group meets
once a year, highly confidential to decide how to control the world to protect
the very rich of rich from we peasants. So much money wasted on wars, and politics
that if they just disarmed every nation, removed all the borders, and
globalized all business, this group could form a One World Government with them
the leaders, and now you will behave, and stop using up all the Worlds
Resources the Trilateral Members might need in the future.
These High Power Rulers decide that
you need a lot of rules to make sure you submit to a higher authority who knows
best, to protect the Big Rulers right to keep you under control. Isn’t Politics
wonderful?
Now you have the Banks running the
country to protect us. Just in case you simple citizens think you have the
power to protect the Constitution and Bill of Rights, our government started
deciding what weapons (Second Amendment) you could be allowed to own, but to
control the misuse of weapons you must tell the government what weapons you
own.
If you buy too much ammunition, the
government can arrest you, fine you $50,000 and send you to prison for some
time to reflect upon your crime?
The Constitution and Bill of Rights
were suppose to allow the New Citizens of the United Colonies now called the
United States to protect our rights until such time as we citizens feel our
elected Government is not in the best interests anymore, and need to be
replaced.
After 1789, bit by bit, we kept an
Army, and started a Navy in 1792. We set up local governments to control the
Free Citizens, from not being too Free. Laws to control Freedom were invented,
and your elected officials claim they were passing laws to PROTECT you.
Along the way, we had trails that
led to other areas of land, we invented wagons with wheels, but the wheels sink
in to the mud as you go along, so the Big Leaders says, you, you, you, fix the
trails, and we will charge the citizens a fee (Toll Roads) to use these trails,
later paved at your cost, and then the government says, you can only use the
trails (streets and Highways) if we allow you to get a permit, (Drivers
License) to use this land. “Land of the Free” that is. You do not have “a
Right” to use the paved road, only with the permission of the Big Ruler if you
pay enough taxes, and submit to search and seizure of your vehicle at anytime
and place. By the way, you do not own the sidewalk in front of your property,
but can be taxed to maintain said sidewalk, and sued if someone falls on the
sidewalk you don’t own. Isn’t being free wonderful?
Now you are free as long as you
follow orders. You can own property and a home as long as you pay homage to the
Big Ruler, Ruler, Ruler, Many rulers. A bit here a bit there, everywhere a bit
bit. You can work at a job you like for yourself, if you get government permits
to do so. It’s called Licensing, with a fee attached of course.
So this is our United States
Federal Government; that our founders fought to give us Freedom. Sure better
that under Kings and Dictators who tax you for everything and tell you
everything you can or can’t do.
But you are FREE?
Now as in all plays, comes the
Finality of it all, your government has canvassed the world, convincing other countries,
that if they start to Industrialize their nation, to employ their citizens,
their government will become richer, more money for their politicians, so the
United States Government, your Government, says to American manufacturers, You
can make more profit if you stop hiring Americans, and get people in these poor
countries “to do the jobs Americans don’t want to do anymore”! So jobs leave
America, everything is now cheaper for Americans to buy, only you are out of
work, and you can’t buy shit.
Great planning? They just left you
out of the formula. The jobs are gone, now how to get rid of you and me, and
the other 300 million Americans, plus 100 million illegal aliens that rush to
America hoping to find work that doesn’t exist in their nation anymore, because
we no longer can afford to buy what they made to export to the United States.
The powers to be are working on that little problem. Stay tuned.
