Supporters of WikiLeaks founder, Julian Assange, continued their cyber attacks today.  Those orchestrating the attacks have dubbed the actions, “Operation Payback”, which some in the mainstream media are calling “Information Anarchy.”

Julian Assange is a world socialist who is associated with various socialist groups.  Some are even trying to affiliate him with a conspiracy to enact new cyber security powers designed to take total control over the internet.

The 99ers have disappeared from the radar screen again.  It is indeed funny how we can exist one moment and not the next.  I think our mention in the mainstream news should be considered a proper gage as to how under control they believe they have us.  When we start beating the war drums we appear on every station.  The problem is once they’ve mentioned us we shut up, sit back, and start waiting for results.  I’m afraid that’s not how it works.

All 99ers need to realize that we are under a constant pressure that is pushing us down.  When we push ourselves up the smallest fraction, we are then relaxing and allowing ourselves to be pushed down even further.  Hell, I’ve been hearing talk of relieving us of our right to vote.  If this were to happen, we would truly be disenfranchised and dispossessed.

Supporters of Julian Assange hacked into the computers of MasterCard and Visa and caused disruptions as an act of revenge for the actions taken against WikiLeaks and its founder.  Apparently PayPal had been attacked a couple of days ago, though the first report I saw of it was yesterday.

Some are saying that this is the start of the first information war, which does not seem that unrealistic as some officials in our government are calling for the assassination of Julian Assange.

Yesterday morning it seemed the 99ers had been swept under the rug.  The propagandists on Fox Business looked like a group of seven year olds on Christmas morning.  One reporter expounded that she had woke up in the middle of the night, laughing hysterically, with satisfaction for the victory of the top 2% over the rest of America.

Meanwhile, 99ers and opponents of the top 2% tax cuts extensions were inundating the computers and phones of their so called representatives asserting their opposition.  Continue reading “99ers Unemployed Still in the Fight”

Julian Assange, WikiLeaks founder, who has been leaking secret U. S. documents on his news website, was arraigned and denied bail in a court in London, England after turning himself in to Scotland Yard.  Assange is accused of four sex crimes which allegedly occurred in Sweden in August of this year.

CNN and Fox News are both reporting on the issue of the 99ers and the fact that we are being excluded in the unemployment extension legislation.

I just called my so called representatives and literally screamed at them.  I have to believe many of you are doing the same as it took forever to get through to the Capital switchboard.  Double your efforts as time grows short.

WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange turns himself in to authorities in London today.  He was arrested and taken to court where he invoked his right to fight extradition to Sweden where he is facing two charges of sexual assault.

Mr. Assange asserts that the charges in Sweden are politically motivated and are indeed retaliation for the documents leaked last week which caused a riff in the international community.

Mr. Assange assets have been frozen in a veiled attempt to shut down WikiLeaks.  He has been denied bail and will be held for extradition hearings.

It was revealed yesterday that President Barack Obama, hollowed be his name, actually told a lie. No, he didn’t chop down a cherry tree, but he did agree to extend tax cuts to the top 2%. The lie is being sold as a compromise for unemployment extensions for those at risk of losing their benefits. Well 99ers, looks like we are screwed.

Ben Bernanke, Chairman of the Federal Reserve Board, stated that 40% of the unemployed have been so for more than six months. He further stated that it could be five years or more before we can expect to see unemployment reduced to 5 or 6%. Sounds pretty grim but I believe it is worse.

Iran has become nuclear self sufficient.  It is reported that Iranians have mined their own ore and are now capable of all the stages of processing, raising tensions in the Middle East.  Apparently the materials they have produced do not violate international law, which only prohibits the import of raw and processed materials.

Israel is renewing threats of a U.S./Israeli attack on Iranian nuclear facilities.  Israel is insisting that the materials will be used to manufacture nuclear weapons.  Officials in Tehran vehemently deny the accusations.

In Iowa, steps are being taken by the state house of representatives to repeal the practice of giving professors at state universities, which are funded by state taxes, paid vacations known as sabbaticals. The incoming speaker of the house of Iowa, Kraig Paulsen, argues, “Why should the taxpayers of Iowa be paying to basically give these folks a year off from teaching?”

College professors who support sabbaticals say that the paid breaks are necessary, in that they allow professors the chance to advance research, get grants, write books and gain new knowledge to share with their students. They further urge the government to stay out of the affairs of academics.

WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange is threatening to release thousands more documents if he is arrested or his site is shut down.  The documents are apparently encrypted with a code that will cause their release all over the world with the push of a single button.  Mr. Assange is presently in hiding and says he fears for his life.

It is also reported that WikiLeaks is experiencing cyber attacks on its servers.  Where the attacks are coming from is unknown however several government officials have been calling for American cyber soldiers to be directed to attack the site.  Also PayPal has canceled WikiLeaks account making it unable to receive donations.

Yesterday morning I finally heard a real story about a real 99er on the mainstream news.  The lady’s name is Rhonda Taylor from Rhode Island.  She stated that she has been without income for eight months now.  I believe she has three kids; one of which suffers from disabilities.  Evidently the disability is not bad enough to receive any help.  She said she had to cash in her 401K, empty her bank account, and sell everything she owned.  She went on to say that she is facing eviction.  When asked what she would do about her children if evicted, she tearfully stated that she would have to turn them over to foster care.

This lady was clearly suffering the deepest apathy and it enraged me to my soul.  The propagandist put forth the notion that unemployment benefits give the unemployed an incentive not to look for work.  Continue reading “99er Unemployed Fighting Words”

Flash:  Two versions for extensions of the Bush tax cuts were voted down yesterday.  The first extended the tax cuts only for those making $250,000 and under.  The second extended the cuts for all those making a million dollars or less.  Apparently the House Republicans and enough House Democrats to make the difference have decided that those making over a million dollars per year cannot feel secure in their future unless the tax cuts are extended to the top 2%.

Is there anybody out there among the middle class and working poor that believes that a million dollars in personal income per year is not enough?  Also, is there anybody out there among the middle class and working poor who believes that a majority of the American citizens do not want a single piece of legislation to pass through the Senate until the top 2% are guaranteed their extra $100,000 per year?  Note: Half of what the top 2% receive in tax cuts per year, $50,000, would put the average family of four above the poverty level.

The White House is proposing a one year extension of unemployment benefits.  Apparently a raise of two tenths of a percent in the unemployment rate has made the issue extremely important once again.  Of course if those who have run out of unemployment were reflected in that figure, the number would be closer to 15%.  In fact, if all the unemployed who are desperately looking for a job were counted the number would be 20% or more.

This scenario just goes to emphasize the fact that the government uses the manipulation of the true numbers to justify their inaction.  The details of the proposed one year extension are sketchy so it is hard to tell how we 99ers might be affected.  Continue reading “The Tier 5 Unemployment Extension May Yet be a Possibility”

There were only 39,000 jobs created last month making the unemployment rate rise to 9.8%.  The Republicans were fast to act in jumping onto the soapbox and announcing that the rise in the unemployment rate is proof positive that extending the Bush tax cuts for the top 2% is the only thing that can save us.  And of course the same old rhetoric in reference to green energy as a solution to unemployment is being parroted across the spectrum.  The propagandists must surely think we have the memory span of a head of lettuce.

Personally I had a funny feeling that our economy might take another dive after all the fools who were able to, maxed out their credit cards buying Christmas gifts they could not afford.  When the buzz about town was, “The economy is growing, personal incomes are going up, and consumer spending is rising.”  Every person who had any money should have grabbed a sock, inserted the money, and headed for the mattress.  So how do you tell when the mainstream media is lying?  Well, their lips are moving.  And who do they lie for?  The corporate mobsters of course.

436,000 American workers filed for new jobless claims this week.  The mainstream propagandists are saying that maybe they overestimated the recovery in reference to jobs.  This is poppycock.  If you pay attention to the mainstream propaganda you will notice that there are always one or two economists that point out the obvious if you are lucky enough to catch their fifteen second blip.

I stated emphatically last month that the jobless reports that the media was putting out for October were erroneous, as the propagandists were trying to portray the seasonal jobs associated with the harvest as being an increase in permanent positions.

The quest for unemployment extensions is now being identified as class warfare.  I guess it is class warfare when a poor person wrecks their car and files a claim on their policy.  Henry Oliner writing for the American Thinker said, “There is something morally repugnant about expecting rescue and salvation from the same people you demonize.”  Well Mr. Oliner, we are not demonizing you for what you have, but rather how you got it.  In fact you might want to re-examine your pompous, self righteous attitude.

The unemployed, especially the long term unemployed, want nothing more than a damn job.  But you see those jobs aren’t there.  And why?  Because the rich elite shipped our jobs overseas where the work is done by the equivalent of slaves, thus further enriching the rich.  Continue reading “Tier 5 Unemployment Extension – Class Warfare”

Unemployment benefits will begin to run out today for 2 million Americans who were made unemployed through no fault of their own.  We 99ers already know the devastation of going from having a little to having nothing.  And where is the extension of unemployment benefits on the to-do list for the lame duck congress?  At number three.

Problem…Reaction…Solution.

This is how governments take control.  It works like this.  A report appears on every mainstream propaganda channel depicting an apartment in the inner city wherein little children have been left to fend for themselves under deplorable conditions.  They are eating what they can scavenge while wading and crawling through their own feces.  (The problem)

The good citizens watch the news clip over and over on every channel for about a week, after which there is a cry throughout the land to stop the abuse which has been witnessed.  (The Reaction)
