Ahaahahahahahahaha! “preemptive moon bombing” masterly, masterly!
If the Aliens where just as stupid as the Americans they would already have bombed us to “Kingdom come”.
Reading “The Day After Roswell” by Col. Philip J. Corso (Ret.) What happens. Alien spacecraft makes crashlanding which most of the Aliens don’t survive but one does. What do the Americans do when they come on the crashlanding site. They don’t hesitate and immediately shoot the poor Alien in the back!
Ahahahahahahahahah! How stupid can you get!? Think of the intelligent conversation we could have had with the ET. No! The Americans shoot them. Ahahahahahahah!
They also are immediately intentified as “The Enemy” ahahahahahah! The Americans laways are able to surprise me in their stupidity.

@ Youri – The AFL-CIO sent out a “lost decade” pdf in their labor day e-mail. It’s pretty sad, but if you want to look through it, it’s here:

max & stacy ..i have read somewhere that the ratio of serfs or peasants to’ landlord’ figure of authourity has remained at constant given ratio regardless of changes in history or advances in economics or whether or not we are living in an open or closed society seems to make little difference i.e. number of customer services workers to a team leader as a minor example of how this ratio has remained relatively unchanged , only now i guess they don’t need us ?
p.s..i guess now we all just become like livestock ?
Baaaa
What is Jonstal style stress test . I might have that typed up incorrectly. I was watching Janet on Q&A and around 50-53 minutes in the interview she says something like this but I can’t make out how it is pronounced from how quickly she says it. This is a great interview. Here is the link Someone please let me know! Thanks

I posted a piece on Detroit not being able to afford burials, now it seems it’s not just a Detroit problem

I recommend reading Glenn Greenwald as he has some good pieces on Authoritarianism in American politics and on the Governments Owners

http://www.ordinary-gentlemen.com/2009/09/on-serfs-stocks-and-inequality/ an interesting article from the ‘league of ordinary gentlemen’ on serfs ,stocks and inequality [i find the anti welfare bias a bit offensive. ] ‘ beggar, beggar burning low , did he who made the ford make thee? ” [ogden nash]
@gonzomarx ,.. unclaimed burials ,a sad situation that says so much about how current system treats the rest of us as well .i guess if they were marked ‘m.i.a.’s ‘ it might be different but i guess for many an unclaimed burial means missing in action of a different kind , is this what people really want ? to live in a society that cann’t even afford the dead a dignified burial ? as for me ? ,i plan on leaving my body to science fiction ,might be safer instead.

@Youri
The fact that Americans can surprise you with their stupidity even in a work of fiction says something about their real world stupidity.
I blame it on the Rockefeller Foundation which began the debasement of education early on with it’s promotion of elitists into the halls of power in education, promoting their own retarded inbred progeny with a steady diet of increasingly dumbed down curricula, and out-sourcing the PHD’s that any society needs to function to foreign students.
My nephew goes to McGill in Montreal, says most of the American students (lots of them there) are functionally illiterate. Same goes for Canadians.
The lobotomizing coup de grace though was/is Hollywood’s controlled demolition of all reason, subtlety, intelligence, and critical thinking. That naturally flowed over into television and then finally “news”. And here we are today, a North American continent teeming with dysfunctional, illiterate, arrogant, obtuse, fucking robots, ready to believe any lie no matter ridiculous.
The best example is 9/11: how the fuck anyone can look at those videos and not see a controlled demolition is beyond me.

that was a good link to the nixon speech.. i think i will use that in ON THE EDGE this week.
Max, I’m sure that you are aware of PUBLIC LAW 95-147, of 10/28/1977. In which the shares of the FED were signed over to the IMF. As I said in a past message: Look at ARTICLE(S) 57 and 63 of the UN CHARTER.
@Jesse – good to see you here! As you can probably tell Max and I love your site and have been posting quite a few links to it lately. Thanks
This new video format won’t play on my browser, it just keeps trying to restart.
Max going native before the big plunge? Dig that smoke-free Ed Murrow stare, that glowering “there will be blood” out there look … and oh, yeah the ever so slight Mohican-on-the-warpath hairdo.
