We have the best system of government in the USA but the problem is that the human heart is indeed wicked. It craves power and creates rationalizations to justify acting on it’s lusts so we indeed need Jesus. Without a doubt without Divine intervention we will destroy ourselves.

I think it’s just printing money with nothing to back it up. The Weimar Republic tried it as did many other countries.
Wrong! What backs it up are the goods and services available. Social Credit money theory balances the amount of money in a country with the goods and services available. When that is not done, then depressions take place when there is not enough money for people to buy the needed goods and services. Conversely, inflations occur when there is too much money in the country.
During the depression in the 1930s, the application of social credit in Alberta, brought the province out of the depression.
In or present system of social debt rather than social credit in Canada and United States, money comes into existence as a debt. That’s why it is IMPOSSIBLE to pay off the National Debt. If every cent of money in the country were applied to the National Debt, there would be NO MONEY AT ALL for the citizens to purchase goods or services, and the country WOULD STILL BE DEEPLY IN DEBT!
Well, I found evidence that my theory…that the Zombie Apocalypse…is the most probable, end-times tribulation scenario - is coming true.
I subscribe to the Dark Web News - FOR EDUCATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY.
And this recent story, shocked even me.
After they review the movie, the cover REAL dark web activities. Let me quote a bit:
Cannibal Sites
The dark web is reportedly filled with websites that uphold cannibalism and its associated tendencies.
This vice is reflected through cannibal chatrooms and guides appertaining to the shocking practice of consuming human flesh.
Expectedly, these sites vary in both complexity and subject matter.
Some sites can be considered simple owing to the fact that they support discussions of amateur cannibalism.
Others are quite bizarre and can be outrageous enough to host persons who volunteer to be eaten.
In some sites, cannibals organize online meetups with the intention of eating each other. It is said that most people offering to be eaten tend do so in exchange of monetary benefits.
Paidion,
So in layman terms, are you referring to the government simply printing money without the creation of debt?
Wow, HollyTree. That is super cool for me. Being a senior citizen and a card carrying AARP member. He has my seal of approval, for that endeavor.
“The most common way people give up their power is by thinking they don’t have any.”-- Alice Walker
Let’s end with some words of inspiration, from Larry the cable guy.
It is super cool and it completely contradicts the Social Darwinism of Evangelical Universalists.
In the passage where the New Testament says that everyone must work, it gives a reason ‘in order that he may have something to give to those in need’. Charity - giving to the poor - is an essential part of Christian morality: in the frightening parable of the sheep and the goats it seems to be a point on which everything turns. Some people nowadays say that charity ought to be unnecessary and that instead of giving to the poor we ought to be producing a society in which there is no poor to give to. They may be quite right in saying that we ought to produce this kind of society. But if anyone thinks that, as a consequence, you can stop giving in the meantime, then he has parted company with all Christian morality. ~~ C.S. Lewis

Steve, it’s not a matter of “printing” money. It’s a matter of creation of money—with or without the printing of physical money.
Right now, under our present debt system, money comes into existence without “printing” it. If you go to a chartered bank and borrow $50,000, they don’t have $50,000 in existence to lend you. They are not permitted to lend the depositors’ money. What they do is simply place the number $50,000 into your bank account and presto! The money comes into existence out of nowhere. When you repay the money, it goes out of existence again.
Social Credit would create the money (make it available) to match in quantity, the goods and services available. Ordinary people SUPPOSE that this is the case right now. But it isn’t! Rather money comes into existence when people or organizations borrow it from the banks.
Because the money, under the present debt system, does not match the goods and services available, there are depressions and inflation—depression when there isn’t enough money to match the goods and services available, and inflation when there is too much. If the money that exists were to balance the goods and services, there would be no more depressions and inflation.
From Bill V. I don’t paint all Democrats (or Republicans) with the same brush - don’t be offended by the article, just notice the facts. I’m tired of the baboons in Washington, of either side.
From MavPhil:
Republicans Underestimate the Thuggery of Democrats
Democrats are willing to use any tactics to block conservatives from the Supreme Court and seat their own ideologues. The question is not “Fair or unfair?” It’s “Will it work?” Republicans always seem flat-footed in response because they underestimate how far Democrats are willing to go to win, how willing they are to destroy people’s reputations if that’s what it takes. Republicans keep thinking it’s 1987 and the Bork debacle was the worst of it; in reality, we’re 30 years on, and the Bork debacle was just the beginning of it.
I learned this in terrorism cases. Radical left-wing attorneys, who style themselves “political lawyers,” try to turn the proceedings into a zoo, chaos being the weapon of those for whom the rules assure defeat. Either the judge takes control of the courtroom with a firm hand, enforces the rules, and penalizes the antics, or there are interminable delays, baseless smears, and general bedlam.
That’s right. Take control and muzzle or remove the transgressive punks. I’ll leave it to you to ponder whether these people are fellow citizens or domestic enemies out to destroy our system of government which enshrines such principles as the presumption of innocence.

Well, let’s wait and see - what the US population thinks. As we approach midterm elections. Will they vote republican, democrat or zombie? Let’s wait and see.
Let’s see if the Dems can destroy an honorable man’s life with a loon testimony from high school that noone else can verify. And the accusation is not even a crime!! But that is what American politics has come to. Take the country by any lying, cheating method possible. Screw the constitution. Maybe the Dems can do it!!
There are no rules.
Well, the problem is that there seems to be no shortage of politicians willing to agree to circumvent (actually I should say SPIN) the constitutional process to gain an advantage. If enough stink is raised in the street, politicians are re thinking their position.
Dave’s use of the term ‘domestic enemies’ is interesting, because at one point the common good of the nation had meaning. The government we have is supposed to insulate us from a banana democracy, in other words, mob rule. The legislative, judicial and executive branches were created to be checks and balances against what is going on here today. I guess it takes women and men of integrity to actually get the job done.

If you cherish free speech, this is a tremendous essay - actually, a printed speech, from Bruce Bawer, showing the alarming war on that freedom world-wide.
Good article… Ask Alex Jones about how things can be disrupted when your bank starts to censor your speech…

Anthropomorphic Nouns
We are all familiar with a
Herd of cows,
Flock of chickens,
School of fish
And a Gaggle of geese.
However, less widely known is:A Pride of lions,
A Murder of crows
( as well as their cousins the rooks and ravens),
An Exaltation of doves
And, presumably because they look so wise:
A Parliament of owls.
Now consider a group of Baboons. Baboons are the loudest, most dangerous, most obnoxious, most viciously aggressive and least intelligent of all primates.
And what is the proper collective noun for a group of baboons?
Believe it or not… A Congress!
(Note: I hadn’t heard that before, looked it up. It is correct)
A CONGRESS OF BABOONS!
That pretty much explains the things that come out of Washington!

Malcolm Pollack:
“We who came of age in the latter half of the twentieth century have lived our whole lives in such ease and peace and prosperity that we have mostly forgotten, I think, how rare, and how precarious, order and peace and safety are — how easily they are lost, and what sacrifices, and what sense of duty and gratitude, are necessary to sustain them. We just take it all for granted — this astonishing edifice of law and tradition and culture and trade and agriculture and innovation and justice and security — as if it was simply a pre-existing and eternal feature of the world. We imagine, lately, that we can just pick at it as we please, pull pieces out of it and burn them, hack away at its foundations, rip out its beams and joists, and crack its pillars without causing it, someday very soon, to come crashing down on our heads.”

Mob rule was something that happened in other countries, at other times, for other people, not for us. No longer can we think this, it is crouching at the door!
By the way, my post was an email that I received. Apparently it has been sent to many people.
By doing an internet search, I found that a group of baboons is NOT called “a congress of baboons” but rather “a troop of baboons.”
