JFSanders @ 73:

It would seem that we will become gods by the end of the 22nd century. Maybe even a pill to convert evil men into good men.

That gives me chills. I am just finishing watching “Serenity” on UNHD. I suggest you see this movie and study M.Sanger Harris and the Eugenicist movement. THAT particular idea sent millions to their deaths the last century. I want nothing of that path.

To RMH, Mongoose and others above talking about who is the most corrupt, Left or Right. That is the wrong question. Why do we have two parties in a two party form of government who are essentially the same? That is closer. Remember that Congress decides budgetary issues and only Congress can pass the laws that decide those issues. To say that the GoP also spent wrongly misses the point. That is like asking who is the bigger thief. If there are deficits it is because they wish there to be deficits. If there are laws on the books limiting basic Constitutional freedoms, it is because Congress has decided that should be so. The President is an enabler to be sure but Congress is to blame. So, if they are moving against the will of the electorate then either that will has been suborned OR that electorate wishes to act against the best interests of the nation. See the problem? It is a system easily suborned if and only if that is allowed OR moved against the will of the governed. Which do YOU think it is?

Me – I believe we have been misled and deceived.

On another thread one of our regulars included this link. The Sequence
by J. R. Nyquist
The whole series of Nyquist’s writings is worth the time. This years are right on point for current events. You either know this, sense it is true or will not sleep too well for a few nights. As for me, this is info I have known about, but Nyquist puts it all so concisely.

PACat – Like aaron says, even he is having problems here. There just ain’t jack going on in this part of the country. 10% unemployment? Nope. The gov’t says, well, ok, 16%. Nope. My guess is more like 20% and trending worse. End up being 30% or worse. These are perilous times.

BTW – I can be reached at my screenname+53 at gmail dot com. You can see from my delusional screeds that I may have enough talent to really hack up someone’s writing. I do have the possibility of a contract moving a fab from one place in the country to another, at least the specific equipment set I am familiar working with. I should know in the next couple of weeks. aaron – how are your mechanical skills? Know anything about robotics, MES or automation controls? If this thing comes through it will be good money for about 8-9 months but requires travel 100%.

Tony – I will check out your links tomorrow. Thank you.
