Occupy Wall Street Will Fail
Many years from now people will not view this movement as having accomplished nothing, but ordinary participants won’t be satisfied with its outcome. Not for lack of energy or intent, simply for lack of foresight and understanding of where power hides, and how it survives. Zeitgeist: Moving Forward Sucks
The Venus Project virus continues to infect thousands Let me start by congratulating the makers of this movie for producing an exceptional piece of propaganda in the classical sense of the term — it very articulately conveys a message that even us unenlightened gentiles can understand. But fortunately for the world, it’s not quite persuasive enough to effect any meaningful change. In this stormy cloud of ideas lies a dangerous system of beliefs that despite the best intentions of Jacques Fresco and his followers will further entrench the power elite onto their thrones. “I’ve seen kids making guns with their bare hands. In Caves.”
Very interesting look at the tribal areas of north west Pakistan. John Taylor Gatto – Weapons of Mass Instruction
His book, Weapons of Mass Instruction, is essentially a rant outlining his hatred of forced public education. It’s compelling and resonates with many of my personal experiences, for example read Are Universities Destroying the Economy. Even if you disagree with the conspiracy element of his hypothesis (public schools were not institutions created with the intent to educate, but to condition people to become obedient consumers and workers) you must take his opinions seriously, because they have the ring of truth. Watch his 1991 documentary, Classrooms of the Heart. The last greatest hope: technology
I was shopping for a new computer and office chair a few weeks ago and was struck by how absurd prices have become. I bought a fully loaded quad-core PC for about $500 and was stunned to find the best office chairs cost even more! What kind of crazy world do we live in? Consider all the research, engineering, design, manufacturing, assembly, shipping from the four corners of the earth… required to build a computer, then compare that process to a few pieces of plastic/metal with a cushion wrapped in some cloth or leather. Are you kidding me? That’s an astounding testament to the incredible productivity of the technology sector and those who work in it. Every other industry sucks in comparison, you heard me. Overview of America
The documentary is from the John Birch society. It’s a bit extreme on some fronts, but an interesting perspective. part 1 Is Keynes the true father of the Venus Project ideology?
Arthur Keynes is the man largely responsible for creating the economic theories that justify our current form of big government capitalism. He is the man most commonly cited to defend fiscal stimulus and bailout packages and is followed by most modern economists, but is he the true father of abundance, and the current economic collapse the attempt to create abundance has created? You are a slave to the government
This video looks to be a few decades old, I have no idea who this guy is. |
