CAN THE FED END QUANTITATIVE EASING?

In this article Egon von Greyerz explains in simple terms how the world financial system is once again in crisis, and the Fed will have to keep on printing: "the Fed, despite its false and misleading propaganda, will keep printing more money because they are trapped.” In fact, it was not too long before it first began monetizing our debt that we were assured it would not happen, so don't worry folks, the men behind the curtain will still be there taking care of us, at least until this decades-spanning debt bubble has reached its climax.

Doug Noland defends his thesis that while price inflation has not shown up in the broader economy, inflationary monetary policies from the FED have stoked asset inflation, and market and financial bubbles. If the old economic law which states that "there is no such thing as a free lunch" is true, then someone is paying for every dollar of the cheap money party that the FED has thrown for the financial and public sector.

THE EMPLOYMENT CRISIS

Europe's youth unemployment problem has become cronic and critical. In fact all of wester civilization has an acute problem with government smothering sustainable private sector growth. Here in the US we have cronic shrinking total employment as a percentage of the working age population. That is true in spite of massively growing the number of people working (directly and indirectly) for the government, which can only mean that the private sector is shrinking and the public sector is growing.

LEGITIMIZING SODOMY AND DELEGITIMIZING CHRISTIANITY

Last night the Moscow City Council passed an ordinance making it a crime to discriminate against someone based on their sexual orientation, or gender identity or expression. This creates the opportunity for cross dressers or homosexuals to bring suit if you refuse to rent to them for instance. It reminds me that the left has always said that"you can’t legislate morality”, but in reality they know that to make it legal actually does legitimize the behavior in question.
The council noted that the goal was to change behavior and further the education of the public on this issue. They did not designate a penalty for non-compliance, reasoning that if people would repent and come into compliance with the policy, the punishment would be minimal. But since the punishment was not defined it also left it wide open for the penalty to be as severe as necessary to bring about the re-educational goals. Moscow mayor Nancy Chaney indicated we were the first city in Idaho to lead the way in this area.
It was one of the"conservatives” on the City Council who moved to suspend the rules requiring three complete and separate readings, to dis-allow any public comment, and adopt the ordinance immediately. Typical of today’s moderate Republicans the only ground they really want to defend is, apparently, fiscal conservatism. In reality, however, don’t ever expect to get any real principled resistance from those moderates on the scope and limits of government because they have given up the very idea of moral, ethical, and philosophical limits to government. You can’t expect technicians committed to doing nothing more than making the machine run more efficiently to do any dismantling of the machine.
On the other hand, our Founding Fathers, the ones who signed the Declaration of Independence, did not make practical arguments for limited government. Their arguments were moral and legal. And their arguments for the unalienable rights to life, liberty, and property could be found in English Common Law, (itself founded solidly on the Mosaic Law of the Old Testament), and explained and defended by Blackstone in his Commentaries on the Laws of England. It was the belief in the Creator, knowable Natural Law, and universal Natural Rights that our system was built on, and once that foundation is destroyed the rest of the structure is coming down. The very philosophical basis for the"rule of law”, Natural Rights, and limitations on the scope and power of government, is the idea that government itself is accountable to the Creator and His Natural Law. Abandon all that stuff and you are just rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic.

OPEN LETTER TO IDAHO SENATE

Dear Senators,

Yours is the final decision to implement Obamacare through a state exchange. Many of you have pretended that this is the "sovereign" choice for Idaho, but we both know that is a twisting of the truth, a marketing ploy. I will work hard through the RLC and any other means possible to expose the betrayal that a state exchange is, and how you all either knew it or have absolutely no excuse for not knowing it. Obamacare is getting more unpopular every day, and as it does we will hold those of you who bring it upon us responsible. When insurance costs more than double (minimum qualifying plan $20,000 per year), we will hold you accountable. If Oklahoma wins its lawsuit, we will hold you accountable for not listening to the liberty and conservative organizations and for not waiting. When the seed money for a state exchange is gone, and Idaho is left paying the bills, we will hold you accountable for recklessly agreeing to something that came with no limits, assurances, or guarantees (cost projections in Michigan were $800,000 over ten years for a state exchange). You don't know what you are agreeing to, how much it will cost, and the agreement leaves HHS with the ability to make any changes they deem appropriate. And this agreement is with a party that has a long history of abusing its agreements with Idaho--for instance, how many pairs of wolves did you limit the federal government to when you gave it permission to initiate wolf introduction? When you have given them permission to set up shop, when have they not abused it?

You are bringing misery upon Idaho and we will remember who did it. Not Obama, not even Otter, no, it was our state legislature that made the final decision to socialize medicine in Idaho, removing all financial and legal obstacles to Obamacare. I promise to join the effort to let the public know the extent to which they were betrayed in this fiasco. I will join any class action suit that capitalizes on the conflict in law that you have created between the Health Freedom Act, and your current actions. I will work hard to promote and back those courageous legislators who fought this corrupt piece of fascist garbage. I have already been hearing how the man on the street sees this as evidence that there is really little difference between the Democrats and the Republicans once the campaigning is over. There is no doubt that this legislation will be prime evidence of who you all really are, for a long time to come.

Sincerely,
Gresham Bouma

AGENDA 21

If you are not up to speed on Agenda 21/ Wildlands Project/Sustainable Development, please take the time to begin informing yourself by reading this article. In 1994 the President’s Council for Sustainable Development was created via Executive Order by Bill Clinton to begin coordinating efforts at the Federal level to make the US Agenda 21 compliant. This means that federal agencies are tools to implement these plans and goals, and are coordinated in that effort by the President's Council for Sustainable Development, nor does it stop there. The City of Moscow has been a member of ICLEI, a non-government agency created to bring the goals of the UN Agenda 21 down to the local level through governmental policy and code adoption. Freedom is dissapearing fast, the question is do enough of us care?

State Exchange Update

The Idaho House Health and Welfare Committee is scheduled to hold hearings Thursday and Friday starting at 7:00 in the morning. A state health insurance exchange will give the Feds more control over Idahoans than any other type since it removes all hurdles, legal and financial, that remain in place if Idaho resists this tyranny. Please attend the hearing if you can make it and voice opposition. Any legislator that will yeild our state sovereignty and individual liberties without a fight needs to be replaced. Blue Cross and Blue Shield would not be supporting this unless they thought it would tighten their stranglehold on our already captive insurance market. The IRS projects the minimum qualifying insurance plan to cost 20,000 per year by 2016, so get ready to empty your wallets if we lose what little is left of a market based system of healthcare and insurance.

Battle Over State Exchange Not Over

For those of you who don't already know, the Idaho Senate last week passes a bill authorizing the implementation of a State Health Insurance Exchange. The last stage the legislation must go through is the Idaho House, so it can still be stopped there. Traditionally the House has been more conservative and responsive to its base than the Senate. The federal government wants a state exchange more than anything else because it removes all sorts of potential legal impediments, as well as gives them powers that they only posses over us (the people) if our state government grants them.

Idaho Sheriff's Association--A Sharp Contrast to Utah's

It appears that the federalization of our Sheriffs is farther along than I thought would be the case. The defense of the Constitution belongs to each of us, and understanding it is the individual duty of every citizen who values liberty.

And when anyone, especially law enforcement, takes an oath to support the constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic, I don't see how that would not include judjes and politicians.

Open Letter to Our Senators (also sent directly to them)

Dear Senators,

With sequestration at the Federal level becoming more and more likely, it brings home the fact that the federal government does not have the financial resources to keep its current programs running at current levels. Only a fool would believe that our federal government will be able to come through on promises to spend more yet, given its absolute insolvency. Therefor implementing an expensive state exchange is a cost we cannot afford as a state. We will be left holding the bag on some or all of the cost of a state exchange as well as the cost of an even more socialized medical system. Nor can we afford to expand Medicaid, increasing dependency even as the system of entitlements is crumbling under its own weight. Are we really in a recovery? What happens when the federal government cuts spending? Can we afford to introduce more inefficiency and therefor cost into medicine and government through Obamacare? You guys are supposed to be leader. Leaders should be able to look several years down the road and anticipate obvious problems coming at us. Since there is no example of government taking anything over from the private sector and improving it, please reject this destructive leap of blind faith and make free market reforms in medicine, here in Idaho, to start to undo the government created problems crippling medicine.

Sincerely,

Gresham Bouma

Senator Fulcher Stands With the People

Idahoans Look to State as Last Line of Defense against Obamacare

Senator Russ Fulcher (Feb. 17, 2013)

The trouble with the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA, or Obamacare) is that it doesn’t protect patients, make healthcare more affordable, or improve care. The trouble with a"state” (vs. federal) health exchange (S1042 & H179) is that it doesn’t place the state in control - a state exchange has to comply with the same rules as a federal one. In both pieces of legislation, one needs to look past the misleading titles and into the text itself. What these bills really do is increase government control at the expense of personal choice, freedom, and responsibility.
Obamacare is federal law, but that doesn’t make it right. There have been numerous"laws” changed when citizens get involved. Remember, it was once legal to enslave men and women according to race, but that wasn’t right then and it isn’t right today. For that law to be changed, courageous people had to stand for freedom and equality.
I believe Chief Justice John Roberts sent us a reminder of this when writing his opinion in the recent Supreme Court ruling (NFIB v. Sebelius). He said"…The States are separate and independent sovereigns. Sometimes they have to act like it.” Idahoans know this, and they expect action from their elected officials. I have received many messages asking for help in stopping Obamacare; and if we as state officials don’t take a stand, who will?
Obamacare and its’ implementation in Idaho (via an exchange) will be devastating to our economy. It is a federal power grab and an intrusion on individual privacy like we have never seen before. If the feds want their precious exchange so badly, we should make them own it along with the rest of Obamacare and its costly mandates. Idaho should resist being a subcontractor to Obamacare and reckless federal spending.
For Idaho to resist by itself probably wouldn’t have much impact on a national scale. But according to the Kaiser Foundation at least 25 states have already said NO to a voluntary state exchange. The more that resist, the better the chance of avoiding or mitigating the damages of Obamacare. Idaho needs to join the states saying NO!
In all my years in the Idaho Senate, there’s never been a single issue more important than this one. It represents the core of who we are, what we believe, and whether or not we are willing to stand for the freedom and liberty our forefathers died to obtain. Consenting to the proposed legislation is consenting to Obamacare. I can’t do that to the good people of Idaho looking for state officials to be their last line of defense.
Isn’t it interesting that the federal government (in debt some $16.5 trillion) is pushing for"mandates” on debt-free states like Idaho, forcing the same fiscal irresponsibility that got them in trouble? Idaho taxpayers don’t want and can’t afford Obamacare.
OK Justice Roberts, I get it.

Obamacare is Perhaps the Real Assault on the 2nd Amendment

If we allow Obamacare to become the law in Idaho because we get so focused on the 2nd Amendment issues that we ignore it, then I am afraid that we have been bested by a tactical diversion. The real threat to our 2nd Amendment rights may actually be in Obamacare itself.

By now most of us know that Obama signed an Executive Order clarifying whether doctors could ask patients about guns in their houses. Put that information together with the fact that everyone seems to agree that guns should not be possessed by people with mental problems. Secondly, Obamacare puts the Federal government squarely in charge of diagnosis and treatments of such things. A state managed Health Insurance Exchange would consolidate all the information and power necessary to strip 2nd Amendment rights from those of us crazy enough to be worried about our Constitutional rights being usurped.
https://chumly.com/n/1a2cb0e

OBAMACARE IS A BAIL-OUT

It is because the market can no longer support the exploding cost of medicine that big insurance and medicine turned to the coercive power of government to underwrite and subsidize their profits (not to mention"non-profits”). If you don’t think that PPACA was a bail-out, then tell me, who wrote it? It wasn’t the grass roots. Nor was it the legislators--they had to pass it to see what was in it. The only entities that are left are the lobbyists and special interest groups that prey on the public interest like piranhas. The industry is looking to have the public served up on a platter, and a state exchange is the means of accomplishing that. It will consolidate medicine in Idaho in fewer and larger hands. And the poor, and the common people will be hurt the most.

As noted above, the national legislature had to pass Obamacare to see what was in it. In the same way our state will not really know what rules will be imposed through a state exchange until we build one. It is a complete dereliction of duty to pass legislation without any knowledge of what it contains; it is equally derelict to create an exchange, giving complete control over to the Federal bureaucracy, with no enforceable guarantees as to what will be implemented through that exchange.

Do We Want This?

Either stop PPACA/Obamacare in Idaho by stopping the state exchange being pushed through our state legislature, or get ready for unbelievably expensive health insurance. Check out the following article.

Senate Addressing Obamacare Today

Please call to oppose a state health exchange today. The capital # is 800/626-0471. I also sent the following written communicaiton:

Dear Senators,

The recent Supreme Court decision regarding PPACA made one thing clear: that while it was not unconstitutional for the federal government to attempt to entice the states to cooperate, the states do so at their own discretion, and are not obligated to yield to the "Federal blandishments". Since we all know that in order to implement Obamacare the federal government needs your collusion, it begs the question as to why would you cooperate in this socialization of medicine? If medicine is destroyed by bureaucracy here in Idaho, it is not Obama's fault, it is yours. It is your choice to offer Idaho up to this corruption of medicine and the market place. If you take this stand against patients and doctors, and for big government and big medicine, I ask again, why? The only argument I have heard from the Governor's office is that we are required by law to do it, that is pure hogwash and by now more and more of us know it. In the future more will know it yet. You will not be able to hide behind ignorance on this one. So if you sell the people out to the Big Blues and the Hospital Association, just be honest and tell us that is what you are doing.

Your very concerned citizen,
Gresham Bouma

Obamacare, The Gift to the Medical Industrial Complex

The following is a letter I sent to all our Idaho Senators:
Dear Senators,

While we are being told that we must choose between a state health exchange or a federal one, we know that is not the whole story. There is no doubt that our state can elect not to yield to the"Federal blandishments” in Obamacare. Justice Roberts made it clear in his majority opinion. It was, however, the dissenting opinion that pointed to the huge money to be made by the biggest players in medicine and insurance thanks to this legislation that attempts to destroy what little is left of a free market in the field. Many of us are under no illusion as to why many of you are so quickly abandoning your posture supporting the health freedom of Idaho’s citizens. Some of Idaho’s most influential corporations, the Big Blues, see the state exchange as an opportunity to consolidate Idaho’s already perverted health insurance market. The question for you as legislators is, will you give Idaho’s consumers as a gift to big insurance and big medicine? Will you cooperate in trussing us up in bureaucratic red tape and surgical tubing as an offering to the medical industrial complex? If you do so the PPACA with its mandated abortion coverage will force me out of the market, since I refuse to buy coverage that pays for what I abhor.

Additionally, with the level of government market protection already in place the pharmaceuticals have gone nuts with the number of recommended inoculations for our children. By law, they have no liability when side effects show up. How much more power will you give them? Since a state exchange would centralize all the medical and financial records of the people, the doors would open wide to mandating whatever inoculation schedule fit the interests of those selling them. Do they really have the best interests of my children in mind? Do you? I know that I do. And I know that those decisions are mine. Take them away and you are threatening my family. You are collectivizing decisions that belong to us parents and stripping us of our constitutionally recognized rights. Obamacare is a personal assault on my freedom and my family, and if you acquiesce to it you join in that assault. Instead I ask you to consider free market reforms such as Dr. Loel Fenwick has recommended and been promoting across the state and nation. Allow us to buy insurance from whomever we want, and whatever coverage we want. Please.

Thank you for hearing my concerns and for the work you do to protect my rights.

Sincerely,

Gresham Bouma

Free Market Reforms to Healthcare Never Considered by Governors Office

While the governor's office pretends to have no other option but to sacrifice us on the collectivist altar of Obamacare, to offer us bound and sedated to big medicine and the Federal bureaucracy, Otter has never seemed to want to explore any other options. Dr. Loel Fenwick, a nationally prominent physician, has proposed free market reforms that would put the power back into the hands of the patients and doctors. He knows medicine inside and out and makes the case for being able to stop the escalating medical costs threatening the solvency of our household and national budgets. The Roberts decision made it clear that the states do not have to yield to the "Federal blandishments" and can reject this federal power grab, so call your state legislators and encourage them to stand with the people against this big medicine/big government takeover.

The Wildlands Project

Also known as Agenda 21, or the agenda for the 21st Century, this UN originated strategy needs to be understood by the average American. It is no accident that it becomes more and more challenging to make a living in rural areas due to things like the introduced Canadian Wolves, Spotted Owl, or potentially Giant Palouse Earthworms and more. This short video introduces the master plan to depopulate America. I am afraid that there is more than sympathy for this agenda in the US Fish and Wildlife, the Forest Service, and other Federal Agencies. Remember that while politicians come and go, the real force of government comes to bear through these bureaucracies that are deeply entrenched and never have to face the voters.

Banksters Make Record Earnings

One result of the reckless financial policies by the Fed as it liquidates the real economy is that wealth is tranferred to its friends in places like the big investment banks. Financial assets inflate, big money changes hands, commissions are made, government debt is financed, housing market is kept on life support, and the financial wizards generate unbelievable earnings while main street lines up for food stamps, and factories rust. This is the problem with the welfare state. This is where the real welfare goes, to places like Goldman.

Flu Shots and Alzheimers

"If an individual has had 5 consecutive flu shots between 1970 - 1980 (the years of the study) his/her chance of developing Alzheimer's Disease is 10 times greater than if they had 1, two or no shots." When asked why, Dr. Fudenberg stated that it is due to the mercury and aluminum buildup that is in EVERY flu shot (and in almost all childhood shots). The gradual mercury and aluminum buildup in the brain causes cognitive dysfunction. Dr. Fudenberg's comments above were from his speech at the NVIC International Vaccine Conference, Arlington VA September, 1997.

We are cutting back!!!

We are cutting back and you may want to also....
We're going to bite the bullet, too!!!!
President Obama ordered the cabinet to cut $100,000,000.00 ($100 million)
from the $3,500,000,000,000.00 ($3.5 trillion) federal budget.
I'm so impressed by this sacrifice that I have decided to
do the same thing with my personal budget. I spend about $3,000 a month on
groceries, household expenses, medicine, utilities, etc., but it's time to
get out the budget cutting axe, go through my expenses, and cut back.

I'm going to cut my spending at exactly the same ratio (1/35,000) of my
total budget. After doing the math, it looks like instead of spending
$3,000 a month, I'm going to have to cut that number by nine cents. Yes,
I'm going to have to get by with $2999.91, but that's what sacrifice
is all about.

I'll just have to do without some things,
that are, frankly, luxuries – nine cents worth.

Did this President actually think no one would do the math? Do people
really understand how idiotic a $100 million cut is in a $3.5 trillion
budget – ludicrous!!!!!!!

One is by sword...The other is by debt."
