The following is an article that explains that of which I speak of below.  This is a fundemental issue that will be corrected over the next few years.

86M Full-Time Private-Sector Workers Sustain 148M Benefit Takers

Buried deep on the website of the U.S. Census Bureau is a number every American citizen, and especially those entrusted with public office, should know. It is 86,429,000.

That is the number of Americans who in 2012 got up every morning and went to work — in the private sector — and did it week after week after week.

These are the people who built America, and these are the people who can sustain it as a free country. The liberal media have not made them famous like the polar bear, but they are truly a threatened species.

It is not a rancher with a few hundred head of cattle that is attacking their habitat, nor an energy company developing a fossil fuel. It is big government and its primary weapon — an ever-expanding welfare state.

First, let’s look at the basic taxonomy of the full-time, year-round American worker.

It Matters WHO you Stand With, and the TACTICS you Employ

We are judged by the company we keep, and how we conduct ourselves in our affairs with our fellow countrymen. Those of us that participate on this blog basically only share one thing. A Common Language, even in that shared language there are more than just subtle differences.

Like it or not, whether we feel it fair or not, our immortal souls will be judged. Those who don’t believe they have a soul are still judged by their fellow man.

Like it or not, I judge a large part of you as wanting and immoral, as I am sure many of you do me. I however will take your aspersions against me and my short comings to the the court of God and morality. I have the confidence that although I fall short in Gods eye,  measured  against the majority here I am a beacon of Good and Justice. These are the reasons why.

My Government has just changed it’s roll to the people. Our Government was designed to be a servant to the masses,  over the past 100 years they have incrementally worked to shift that foundation so that it is the people that serve the Government. With Obamacare they achieve it.

So where are the Ski masked Heroes planting bombs killing to change this injustice? No where. Because we know that killing our own brethren to right injustice is a greater injustice. If the only way to right my system is to kill my fellow American than I would rather die in oppression, and servitude. It’s not that I don’t believe in violence as a tool, you know I do.

The difference is I understand that there is a time and a place for such matters, against my fellow citizens is never such a time. No change in the internal workings of a nation ever bears the fruit of justice through such means. The Civil War ended slavery with the bloodiest war the world has ever seen, yet injustice prevailed.

Not until 100yrs later was equality won through peaceful marches that the black man gained equality.  God does not favor those who exert their will on others through acts of aggression. Look at History. Every Nation that chose to use force for gain other than defense eventually fell into ash.

The Peace Process in NI is not working because the gains that have been achieved were done so through the spilling of innocent blood. You will never have peace and justice until amends are made. Every gain will be lost.

Over the next 20yrs you will watch America rewrite itself. It won’t be done with blood. We will not kill each other to achieve our goals, yet our goals will be achieved. I look at you as barbarians, and I judge you wanting.

Report by researchers from Princeton and Northwestern universities suggests that US political system serves special interest organisations, instead of voters

This is news? It took a study to figure out the plain obvious?

The US government does not represent the interests of the majority of the country’s citizens, but is instead ruled by those of the rich and powerful, a new study from Princeton and Northwestern Universities has concluded [...]

After sifting through nearly 1,800 US policies enacted in that period (1981 – 2002) and comparing them to the expressed preferences of average Americans (50th percentile of income), affluent Americans (90th percentile) and large special interests groups, researchers concluded that the United States is dominated by its economic elite.

Well yes, obviously. Welcome to democracy. We can explain this. It’s rent-seeking; where the special interests and the politically connected use the law and regulatory agencies to advantage themselves at the cost of everyone else. This is the very point of the existence of the state; to provide the legal fiction and violent back up for their looting. It’s the very reason for its being. Or, another way: the state is the great fiction by which everyone attempts to live at the expense of everyone else.

Terrible news from South Korea today, where at least 300 are listed as missing after a ferry sank. Many of the missing are teenage school pupils.

What caught my attention is this snippet:

There were suggestions from survivors that the ferry operator had told passengers to stay in their positions as the ship sank, ending any chance of escape.

Staying in place is, of course, often terrible advice, and maybe here cost hundreds of people their lives. Many people were killed on 9/11 because they stayed in place. Sometimes people follow fatal orders, sometimes they’re paralysed or confused, but whenever something very bad happens your chances of survival increase massively if you are proactive and act. In this I can’t recommend Amanda Ripleys book too highly: Who Survives When Disaster Strikes – and Why

Crikey, it’s like everyone’s on a blog strike. Sorry dear readers but I don’t see a PC until evening. Can’t be helped I’m afraid, the government is relying on me to earn its money. Have yourselves an open thread then, one decorated with words of wisdom by the greatest American. Play nicely out there while I go stick some booze in the fridge.

Lets take a look at other things that the non-aggressive Russians are doing shall we.

While we are being led by an Ideologue that has no concept of how to lead a nation let alone deal on an International level, the Russians are having a field day taking advantage of the opportunity to garner points.  Over the last week they tested a new ICBM MIRV that they boast can penetrate our defense systems. Now tests like this are normal the Russians have been upgrading their weapon systems while the west cut theirs. The boasting however is done to insult Obama.

The real dangerous provocation happened at Sea. A Russian Fighter Plane buzzed a Navy Destroyer within 1000 Yds. repeatedly for over 90 minutes. The only reason it wasn’t shot down was because our sensors knew it was unarmed. There is a protocol amongst warships, it was setup as to not have a war start by accident. These protocols were violated.

The only reason for this is to insult. The Russians know we can detect what armaments are on an aircraft. They just wanted to taunt and create propaganda that we are weak.  Under any other President the risk that this maneuver was would never have been tried.

The two stories regarding the incidents are below

After some speculation, the White House has confirmed that CIA Director John Brennan was in Kiev over the weekend.

The White House is now confirming that CIA Director John Brennan visited Ukrainian capital Kiev over the weekend and met with high-ranked Ukrainian officials.

Deposed Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovich had accused Brennan of ordering a crackdown on pro-Russian activists in the east of the country, reports RT.

“We don’t normally comment on the CIA director’s travel but given the extraordinary circumstances in this case and the false claims being leveled by the Russians at the CIA we can confirm that the director was in Kiev as part of a trip to Europe,” White House spokesman Jay Carney told reporters.

To get the D/CIA on a flight to Kiev is big time and shows beyond all doubt how serious Washington is about getting its way over Ukraine. He doesn’t go anywhere just to give the CIA operatives a pep talk. With Moscow possily stirring it up in the east of the country things won’t be getting quiet there soon.

I’m over in a sun drenched London for the next few days. My hotel has rather marvellous views over Hyde Park and it is currently full of people enjoying this lovely weather. London is a strange city, full of  English history but also foreign accents. As I wandered through the park I was struck by the number of women wearing Islamic garb. Given how warm it is here ( I was sweltered in a jacket) I really do wonder how uncomfortable these ladies must find it? Their husbands were dressed much more appropriately and you can’t help but see their women as chattels, dressed to suit them. Anyway I will try and put a few posts up but just letting you know that I am alive and well and in Londonistan.
