      And counting their lucky stars (as well as their piles of gold) that t.v. ‘programming’ is still in effect (mostly, anyway).

2. “1 in 4 Americans Know Government is the Enemy”

   That statement is based on a Pew Research poll (I read this elsewhere), so you can expect that the real number is a lot higher than that. (I suspect it’s higher than 3 out of 4)

   I don’t know anyone who doesn’t view the government as the enemy. The tide has turned, and even people who don’t know the whole story (aren’t “awake”) have still had enough of this “government”, and this BS “war on terror”.

   On Thanksgiving I was talking to a few guys about stockpiling ammo, and found out that they have more ammo than I do.

   1. If so many know the government is the enemy,
      why do nearly all still vote to give the government its legitimacy.
      It is a fallacy (great man fallacy) to think that changing a few (or many) will fix an institution that is corrupt in its design.

      1. I really think this is why so damned many folks still vote–there is a saying, “If you don’t vote you can’t complain.” Unfortunately, many people believe this nonsense (heck, I used to!) So I do believe folks vote just so they can complain.

         And whenever someone tells me this I say right back, “The time for complaining is over!”

      That’s what I come across at work more and more each day. Granted there are still some really stupid customers and sheeple, but most hate the government for not doing anything for We the People in terms of borders and economic issues. In addition to that, management only complains about how bad the higher ups are in the corporations (AKA the top 1%) in being stingy on wages, while the rest of mid-level management and the low-end employees fight to get the remaining scraps of dirt.

      This is what happens when you live in a Fascist/Communist country.

3. I found more interest in the Space Mining Act, wondering about giant space dump trucks (laughing). Although I do hope the 1 in 4 article causes some scoundrels (oy) to load their britches…..

4. 3rd time I’ve tried to comment on this thread. I will continue editing to finish my thoughts. I had 2 masterpieces ready for posting and the website goes to this ad. Once the ad is done, comment is erased.

   Someone appears to be censoring comments through this malicious software and, of course, the same people causing the problem happen to have the “miracle” software to “debug” you for the normal “bend over” fee.

   Dammit, I had a spectacularly long paragraph that they burned on me. Only do 1 or 2 sentences and save. I’m learning.

   1. A handy trick to avoid losing a post due to a glitch like that is to first highlight all of your finished post with Ctrl-A, then do a Ctrl-C to copy it before submitting. If you lose the post after hitting the “Post Comment” button, you can just paste it back in the comment area before trying to submit again.

      1. Hey thanks BMF, I’ll try that. It’s never ending though, isn’t it?

5. There have been a few recent polls showing that a large percentage of Americans believe the government is a major threat to their civil liberties, or believe it’s the enemy, or some other variation on that theme. Even 25% of Americans is a very significant fraction, and other polls have had it much higher.

   But if so many Americans don’t trust the government, then why do Americans almost unanimously support it? Consider, for example, how Americans are nearly unanimous in their pathetic, slavish worship of the government’s standing army. And how many citizens continue to vote mainstream Republican or Democrat? Look at how many people support psychopathic narcissists like Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton, both of whom have condemned Edward Snowden in spite of his selfless act of heroism on behalf of freedom in America.

   1. Quick answer to that one BMF. Do you think they actually tally these numbers? They throw them “out there” to gauge a response and adjust their “think tank” input accordingly. The “Grand Illusion” must be upheld or they die.

      1. True, Millard, we can never discount the probability that at least some of these polls are manipulated. We already know for certain that the Fedcoats tamper with the news and engage in other PsyOps and acts of deception.

         1. I’m too retarded and computer handicapped to pull off a posting of “Grand Illusion”. That would be my response.

7. According to Benjamin Franklin, the American Revolution was fought and won by six percent of the population of the American Colonies when no more than one-third of the colonists wanted to separate from British rule.

   So, one out of four ain’t bad. Let’ make it one out of three and see what happens.

   1. Hey Mary, if you think those “black Friday” fights are entertaining, google “People of Walmart”. Warning: Not for the faint of heart, or stomach.
