The severity level for the nuclear disaster in Japan rose from 4 to 5 on a scale of 1 to 7.  WHAT?!  Am I crazy, or did I see on every mainstream news channel just a few days ago that the level had gone from 6 to 7?  It has come to the point that not one word coming from the mainstream media can be believed as those reporting either do not know the facts or do not care what they are.  This can be considered as nothing short of pure propaganda.

Now let’s look at the threat to our own country.  If you at least have the memory span of one week, you know that it was originally reported that radiation from Japan could not and would not reach the United States.  And then it was reported that traces that might or might not be detectable might, could, reach our shores.  And now yesterday we were awaiting the arrival of a “radiation plume” that has arrived in our country but is not believed to contain “dangerous” levels.

Well Obama’s approval ratings are continuing to fall.  So I guess some more American service people had better get ready to die in Libya in order to bring them back up as the UN Security Council has okayed not only a no-fly zone but any military action deemed necessary by any country to protect the insurgents in Libya.  And when it comes to another war in the Middle East what it will cost and how it will be financed is not an issue.

This scenario should show everyone that in the international political agenda human life is not a consideration.  Think about it like this.  If the true goal was nothing more than to get an incompetent president reelected it would be an extremely simple task.

As we grow older we tend to get set in our ways, which is not always a good thing.  I try to keep an open mind in a never ending quest for more complete knowledge.  And just to show that I do not know everything, I will confess that I learned something new today.  Nuclear radiation really isn’t bad for your health.  So all this worrying we have been doing has been for nothing.

Do they really think we are that stupid?  Who could hope to retain an ounce of credibility by coming on national television and trying to downplay the horrific effects radiation has on the human body?  These so called experts have to be getting a lot of money for putting forth these lies.

New jobless claims dropped to 385,000 last week as inflation continues to rise.  There are at present 10 million 99ers.  There are over 8.9 million Americans still collecting unemployment benefits at present.  No new jobs are being created in spite of what the propagandists say. 

At this rate there could very well be 19 to 20 million 99ers by the 2012 election and if you want to count all the long term unemployed, I have to believe that that number would come in at right around 30 million.

So far $46 million has been donated by American citizens for relief in Japan.  $1.3 billion was donated for the Haitian disaster and $5.3 billion went to the Gulf Coast after hurricane Katrina, marking a sharp decline in American generosity.  And what is causing that decline?  Well it is a fact that most charitable donations in the United States come from our middle class, as the rich do not care in reference to misery and suffering.  That being the case as our middle class continues the shrink, so does our ability and willingness to help others.

If you think about it, if each billionaire just gave five million dollars to charity, suffering around the world could be, at minimum, reduced to the point that starvation would not be an issue.  But we need to understand that the rich elite, not only applaud starvation, but are working toward a 90% world population reduction.

A true effective propaganda consists of three elements, truths, half-truths, and lies.  The level of propaganda coming out of Japan is truly frightening.  You have reporters telling you that the situation isn’t really that bad, others saying the situation is critical, while the third branch state that they just do not know. 

The truth is they do not know.  You see they cannot know as there has never been another situation like this.  It is chaotic and unique, which it to say anyone claiming they can predict what will happen next is a liar.

As suspected the nuclear catastrophe in Japan is turning out to be a lot worse than originally reported.  There are now four reactors on their way to meltdown and though there is endless speculation as to what the effects will be literally on the world, the fact is all even the experts can do is speculate as nothing of this magnitude has ever happened before. 

Of course the nuclear energy companies had their mouthpieces front and center again yesterday.  However they quickly disappeared again after a couple of incidents wherein they were claiming the reactors were stable at the same time they were blowing up in the film footage being projected behind them.

Well our so called government has sent warships to aid the Japanese and also, through the Suez Canal, to anchor off the coast of Libya.  You see the people in Libya are being oppressed.  They are not being allowed their pursuit of happiness.  Therefore, our politicians are chomping at the bit to rush to their aid.  Wouldn’t it be nice if the 99ers’ lives were thought worthy of salvation by our so called government?

The people in Wisconsin are now taking action to recall Governor Scott and his backers, both Demopublican and Republicrat, in retaliation for their blatant abuses of power in attacking the working people in that state.  The propaganda push has been that the public workers needed to lose their bargaining rights because their pay and pensions had caused a deficit.

The death toll in Japan continues to rise after Friday’s 9.0 earthquake followed by a tsunami.  And five days into the disaster the Japanese people are having to deal with three nuclear reactors in different stages of meltdown. 

It is a very precarious situation, made even more precarious by the mainstream media’s blatant attempt to downplay the situation, leading many to ask, “Is it so bad they cannot tell us the truth?” One nuclear specialist on CNN, Monday morning speaking just one hour after a hydrogen explosion at one of the reactors, labeled the meltdowns as “a controlled crisis.”

There is an article in April’s edition of Reader’s Digest titled, “How the Great Recession Changed Us.”  Talk about a blatant attempt to polish a turd.  According to the U.S. Census there was an 11.7% increase in the number of households containing more than one family between 2008 and 2010.  But this is a good thing because it makes families become closer.  Of course they don’t like each other as much anymore, but they sure as hell are closer.

500,000 people age 35 and older were forced to move back in with their parents, siblings, or other kin in the same time period.  There was an 8% increase in the number of kids who have moved back in with their grandparents from 2009 to 2010, but remember, things are getting better.

It seems every day more and more of the world is falling into chaos, from the earthquake and tsunami in Japan to the uprisings in the Middle East and anti-government protests in Europe.  And don’t forget there is a terrorist behind every bush wanting to blow us up.  But you know what?  Being a 99er, I have to say I do not think these catastrophes are hitting my psyche one one-hundredth of what they would have in my prior life before unemployment, though I am genuinely worried about the three nuclear power plants in Japan that may be melting down.

I live in Oregon.  During the Second World War a little town about 50 miles to the east of where I live, was the only place in the continental United States to suffer casualties from a Japanese bomb.  The bomb was sent via a balloon which drifted with the weather currents and landed in Bly, Oregon where some children from a church group found it.  It was a very tragic event.

It is March 12th and spring is creeping up on us.  Right now we have about six months of good weather ahead of us and we should not waste one second of it.  There is already a call for a Nationwide Protest on April 2nd and this is good.  And of course there is the Easter Project coming up on April 24th.  From the activity I see from website to website I think we might be finally communicating without trying to push any single agenda, hence, as individuals. 

As individuals we can win this thing, but if we want to win we cannot keep being nice about it.  We must start turning to ourselves as individuals and saying if nothing else, what can I do as an individual to strike a blow for the cause of the 99er?

Barbara Lee and Bobby Scott cosigned a letter that was sent to John Boehner, Eric Cantor, and Dave Camp requesting their assistance in finding financing for HR 589, and also their help in plotting a course that will allow the speedy passage of the legislation.  Personally I do not see how this is going to do any good.  Remember John Boehner and company are working through a mandate that was put forth to them by the voters which says, “Destroy everyone but the rich.  Give no quarter and take no prisoners.”

Considering the recent outrageous acts committed by Wisconsin’s governor I do not think anything is going to stop this power grab, short of armed conflict.

As civil war rages through Libya United States politicians are swarming to the back rooms of Washington like rats to a grain elevator.  Though the overwhelming opinion through the American population is “No more wars” these politicians seem hell bent in carrying out their orders given to them by the international oil cartels wherein they are to use U.S. military might to secure Libya’s oil for their masters.

They are saying, “We just want a no-fly zone,” which we all know would require the extensive bombings of every air field in Libya.  Under international law this is an act of war.  If we have learned one thing it is when the industrial war complex gets its fangs sunk into a Middle Eastern country, it will not let go.  They do not care if they destroy the United States in achieving their goals.  In fact the destruction of the United States is one of their goals.

The mainstream propaganda machine continues its blackout in reference to the 99er issue.  I believe there are 99ers out there who are taking actions that are deliberately being excluded from the mainstream news.  This being the case we must push from the bottom up.  If you have been following the comment board you will know that an opportunity has arisen to get news coverage through mlive.com/jobs. 

What needs to happen is for a group of 99ers in Michigan to get together, start building a cross and a platform, and have their most eloquent speaker step up to do an interview.  Relief for the 99ers is not going to come simply by us wishing for it.  We are going to have to step forward and demand it.

Dateline USA: 93 million cats and dogs in the United States are now considered overweight, causing pet insurance rates to rise.  Something must be done and we all are going to have to step in and do it as this is an American problem.  The rich man’s cat is too fat.  It is time for a crusade. 

This story actually enjoyed a full segment on FOX Business on Tuesday morning.  These people have become so outrageous in their gluttony that their animals being overweight now commands more attention than 99ers starving to death in the streets.  The wellbeing of the rich man’s pets is a serious issue.

The 2012 election is now in full swing with candidates from both sides of the false left-right paradigm attacking one another via the mainstream propaganda machine.  And of course it is being said that the average presidential campaign will cost around a billion dollars.  With the money raised by fifteen candidates HR 589 could be financed. 

Remember when we were children attending the public schools?  We were told that anyone of us could grow up and become president of these United States.  I guess they just forgot to tell us that that assertion was conditional in that anyone of us could become president if we entered the business world, join the right secret organizations, cut throats, and back stabbed our way up to the point that we knew the right people who could afford a billion dollars to buy us off so that we would commit treason against our fellow citizens and our county.

The ongoing turmoil in the Middle East is causing gas prices in the United States to continue to rise.  It would seem everything is going according to plan, except that Muammar Gaddafi just won’t step down and allow the highest bidder to step in and take control of Libya’s oil resources. 

Hillary Clinton and company are having a hard time selling their invasion of Libya to the American people as we have had enough of war and the economic damage it is doing to our country and the death it is causing to our young people serving in our military.  Clinton’s sell for an invasion of Libya is being made double hard by the depictions being shown of her swapping spit with Gaddafi’s son and Obama embracing Gaddafi as his Muslim brother.

A new immigration bill has passed in Utah mirroring the Arizona law that says that police must check the immigration status of anyone arrested for a felony or a serious misdemeanor.  If the United States was truly intent on enforcing our borders and our laws wouldn’t this be a no-brainer?  Would it not in fact be reasonable to assume than any person who could not answer a police officer’s enquiries in English just might be here illegally and breaking our laws?

Apparently the Utah law, unlike Arizona’s, has included within its body a provision for a guest worker program.  Thus it has won a small bit of favor from some of the immigration groups.

In observing the mainstream propaganda machine I heard a commentator on FOX News put forth the notion that if the labor unions could be broken it would drive down wages and allow more people to go to work at a reduced rate, and this was portrayed as a good thing. 

Let’s take it step further.  Let’s get rid of the unions and the minimum wage and even more people could return to the work place.  Hell let’s go all the way, let’s get rid of child labor laws.  We could put everybody to work but of course they would only be getting room and board, which in reality equates to slavery.
