The Mainstream News Media would have us believe that the real cause of our economic plight was the collapse of the Housing Bubble and the gross fraud of Wall Street as they conjured-up financial instruments that should have landed hundreds of their charlatans and thieves in Federal Prison. Granted, both of those issues dealt a harsh blow to the economy, however, if the economy was strong we could have weathered whatever they threw at us but long before either of those scandals became known, Corporate America, corrupt Washington Politicians and the Elites that run this country had already dealt a death blow to our economy that to me, bordered on treason and sedition. As Mitch Gurney alluded to in his latest article, Have America’s Business and Political Leaders cooked our Goose?, it appears to me that our corporations and America's Elites have knowingly worked to undermine our economy, national security, and the very fabric that held this nation together for over two hundred years.

By Mitch Gurney September 23, 2010 One problem with the U.S government running huge fiscal deficits each year is someone has to finance and hold that debt. Every dollar tied up financing government debt is resources not available to other sectors of the economy. Investment advisor John Mauldin compiled an in-depth analysis of this situation ...

Now we know why the Stimulus and tax cuts failed to adequately stimulate the American economy. Surely President Obama and Timothy Geithner were aware that this would happen before the funds were issued. This has been the 600 Lb Gorilla sitting in the living room and no one previously mentioned it nor addressed this critical issue. It seems obvious that President Obama needs to immediately change his advisers if we are to have any chance of saving the Republic.

A series of recent studies conducted by the Pew Research Center shed new light on the scope of the economic crisis in the US and the level of hostility the majority of the American population holds for the US government.

Yes, I'm shocked and honored beyond belief; just a few minutes ago, I received a call from the United Kingdom requesting if I'd be available today for an interview with the BBC in regard a comment I posted and a new article I wrote on the Google/China situation.

For the second time in four years, Google has demonstrated that they lead the world in corporate ethics and utilize a business model based on Don't be Evil.

Last month and since 2004 I have reiterated the national security issues with China's escalating cyber-espionage aimed at the United States, their continual industrial espionage and over three-thousand Chinese "front-companies" that operate in the United States with the sole intent of siphoning-off American know-how and technology. In spite of knowing how China treats their own people, which isn't properly documented and televised, and their continual military/industrial espionage - most American and multi-national corporations continue to do business with a country that violates every concept of decency and humane treatment that is the great dividing factor between East and West. To the western World, life has some value, but in China, power, authority, and achieving their goals trumps any vestiges of humanity that most Westerner's take for granted - and they often turn a blind eye to their own citizenry on issues that if they occurred in any western country - would immediately result in shutting a corporation down or fining them out of existence. When China's industry sickens their own people, they actually punish the people seeking medical attention and turn a blind-eye to the perpetrator of the crime(s) - and American, multi-national, and Chinese corporations reap extremely high profits from human suffering and the poisoning of entire communities.

If we take the reports at face value propagated by the Mainstream News Media and China, we are led to believe that the rising tensions between China and the United States center around our arms sale to Taiwan and President Obama's refusal to honor China's demand to forgo a scheduled meeting with the Dalai Lama. The above issues are certainly a thorn in our relationship with China, but matters of far more importance represent the real cause of our nations problems with China. The tension between China and the U.S. has been escalating for years; the reasons are complicated and fraught with several underlying issues that neither party will publicly admit, and as usual, our Mainstream News Media is keeping its citizens in the dark. Some of the tension is a grave matter of national security, and one issue was substantiated/discovered by Shawn Carpenter, a courageous employee of Sandia National Laboratories who, after exposing a dire breach of our national security - was rewarded by being fired from his position at Sandia Labs.

Pneumonic plague poses a potentially increasing risk to humans in plague nonendemic regions either as a consequence of an aerosolized release or through importation of the disease. Pneumonic plague is person-to-person transmissible. How did China recognize this disease and control it so swiftly if they were not aware that it was coming - especially when it broke out in a remote area of China where they are known to hold their Tibetan population in contempt and favor the Hans Chinese???
