A broken America!
I made a mistake by linking two same articles by Amos Richardson. Here was to be the third article.

The end of the middle class!
Control, Manipulation, and Power
I had a chance to review the video discs by Lindsey Williams. Here are some of the highlights from his discs.
There is a group of people who do control our world. The American dollar will collapse. Inflation will increase in two years. Gold and silver are the only money that matters. More wars are planned. The name of the game is control, manipulation, and power. Not everything is about money!
The elite are not divine. The elite are laughing at stupid Americans. The elite are the devil’s messiahs. The elite are trying to remove our God to control Americans. The original purpose of education was to teach us how to read so we could read the Bible. Today, the purpose of education is to be patriotic Americans in order to pay our taxes.
Where do we want our rewards? Do we want our rewards to come from God or from the American government?
The elite want to set up a New World Order. We will all work for the American government. America is in trouble. We will be poor by inflation, deflation, and slavery.
The American taxpayer gave the elite $2.5 trillion and in return the elite gave us a $9 trillion deficit. A JOB means Just Over Broke! The collapse of the American dollar and inflation will be gradual. ALL ORIGINAL WEALTH COMES FROM THE GROUND!!! Gold and silver come from the ground. Money for the elite is gold and silver. Paper money means nothing to the elite. The elite’s plans are by intentional design.
In the U.S. Constitution there are not the words, separation of church and state. The current standard of currency for the world is crude oil and the American dollar. The American dollar is being phased out as a viable currency. The world is dumping the American dollar. Our politicians have betrayed us. The Bush family is an oil family and they are part of the elite.
The American dollar is worthless and it will collapse the world economy. In two years America will be bankrupt, inflation will rise, salaries are slashed, and soup lines will be here but will the soup lines have any soup. Rebellion to tyrants is obedience to God! – Thomas Jefferson!
There will be war through out the world in two years. Everyone will be working for the American government. Gasoline will be $10 per gallon. We have no jobs in America. The elite have moved all of our jobs out of our country. 501C3 binds the pastors from speaking out against our country’s policies and practices. Churches, today, do not have pastors with courage. Only Divine Intervention can save America!
The elite do have ethics and they must reveal to us what they intend to do. This revelation is subtle. The elite do not have salvation. They have a god and their god is of this world and his name is Lucifer. The mouthpiece for the elite is the national media.
The elite want only nine mega-banks. The elite are vicious people. Watch for the bank takeovers! Watch for the number of bankruptcies! Do we have access to our safety deposit boxes? Watch the movies Hollywood produces! Do these movies glorify violence and war? Watch the pace of inflation! At the end we will see a limit on how much money we can take out of the bank.
Here are the control measures to enslave Americans banking or the control of our pocketbooks, health care, the Patriot Act, Youth Corp or the SS Brownshirts, mandatory service in society for adults, gun control, travel restrictions, and media restrictions.
The elite do not act the part of criminals. The elite leave the impression of being responsible and respected people.
WE HAVE TWO CHOICES – ACCEPTANCE OF GOD OR NOT TO ACCEPT GOD!!!
Although I have shared much information with you on Lindsey Williams, he turned me off with two sentences. “America is a republic and not a democracy. Democracy is socialism.” I like socialism and America needs more socialism. A republic has elected representatives. Do you honestly believe that our elected representatives really care about you and me? In a democracy the people have supreme power. I believe the people should have supreme power and not our elected representatives and especially the appointed Supreme Court justices who are really politicians and care for only the rich, the corporations, and the military. GIVE ME MORE SOCIALISM IN THE USA!!!
The Wisconsin National Guard is preparing to take over the state prison system. If it is necessary, a mercencery army will be hired to break up the protesters. If any protester is killed, we will have a civil war that is started by Scott Walker. Blood will flow in the streets of Wisconsin. We are the brink of seeing thousands of Wisconsin citizens slaughtered in the state. The protesters are not the mob. The mob is composed of the Supreme Court mafia, the conservative crazies, the blue-dog rats, and a weak leader in Obama.
Control
The issue is not the breaking up of the unions. The unions have as much power as the pimple on my behind. The issue is control. The Republican crazies want complete control of the judicial, legislative, and executive branches at the federal, state, county, and local levels. Once they have control, they will pass into laws that enslave and impoverish Americans as a whole. America is becoming a diversified country and controlling this trend toward diversity will be difficult. Once diversity is controlled, The Republican crazies will be able to dictate who can vote and who cannot. The Republican crazies will never lose another election and control will be until the Last Judgment. The enslavement and the impoverishment of ninety percent Americans will be completed at the Wisconsin Dells. Wisconsin will not be the Republican crazies Waterloo. Wisconsin will be the Republican crazies victory at the Wisconsin Dells. You must never forget that this battle is about total control over ninety percent of Americans.
The Republican crazies want to scrap our United States Constitution. Not everything is about money. The high stakes game that the Republican crazies are playing is about control, manipulation, and power.
The grouping of staff in teams often provides the best option for inter-communication and/or supervision and is a key factor in office layout design. However, where space is at a premium it may be difficult to accommodate a workgroup in a given area, and the solution often involves making.Office Space by moving others. These types of move may be complex and disruptive as there is often a chain of events involved.
Just a few songs for your consideration:
How 'bout Peter, Paul and Mary's version of Pete Seger's "If I Had a Hammer". It's both anti-war and pro-labor.

If we're still doing anti-war songs here are song great ones:
My favorite anti-war song of all time. Creedence Clearwater Revival:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YRLG_zYiQs4&feature=fvst
Marvin Gaye, "What's Goin' On?"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rD78i6eoGkM&feature=related
Jimmy Cliff, "Vietnam".

I adore your show.
Thank you,

I'm torn: curl up in a fetal position and suck my thumb, or take to the streets with a torch and pitchfork? The latter is more useful.... I'll be right back.
How about Phil Ochs- "I ain'y a marching anymore", Jefferson Airplane- "Wooden Ships", Eric Burdon- "Sky pilot", Hot Tuna- "Death don't have no mercy" or of course the best John Lennon- "Imagine">
Some pretty classic numbers to choose from
Thanks for all you do!!
Mark Williams is about creating a false image of working people, slander. He wouldn't have need to create false images if what he was saying was true. He would have enough real images.
His arguments are not even specious. They would have to be vastly improved just to be specious.
People who are for the union busting in Wisconsin say Walker is not a dictator as he isn't doing this alone; he is working within the sytem with the legislature. Seriously, folks? He is having the Rep. Senators in lock step with him; he is threatening to lay off hundreds and thousands of public employees if the dems don't bow down to this bill; he is refusing to even talk about it with his own party senators, let alone any negotiation with workers or union officials. Then they even stopped a website inside the state capitol that was to let protesters know what is happening. Sounds like dictator to me.
Our 14 senators are our heros. Keep up the good fight out of state and we will keep up the good fight instate. I'm retired law enforcement and will go out every day to protest, no matter how long it takes.
We need to remove this dictator as soon as legally possible. Even if we do it as soon as we can, Wisconsin will have an uphill battle to regain some of what we are losing every day.
Thom, yesterday some right wing tool called into your show and implied that there were signs with Walker with a Nazi moustache, etc. That Is patently UNTRUE!! there are NO SCH posters! WI teachers and public employees are far more educated and sophisticated to lower themselves to such tea-party tactics. Their signs are much more clever such as "Gov Walker, does your wife know you are screwing teachers?" "tea party signs spell-checked for free" "No longer a Republican." Also, protesters are so conscientiousness that when I raised objection to being kept Out of the ASSEMBLY room, I was shooshed for fear Faux News would be "all over it" if there was ANY uproar.
Yes, this very likely will spell the end of democracy in america. The republicons have fox news to serve the message to the drones. It is so powerful a brainwashing that unfortunatly it cannot be broken.
Here is what I am attempting to do to break the fox drone mindmeld:
1. If the drone brings up something about "tax breaks" to "create jobs", I point out that we've lost millions (I believe 22 million) in the last 11 years. It doesn't work. Why keep doing it. They don't have a response to that. The politely shut up, or keep waffling, or change the subject.
2. I tell people to watch what happens to that physical plant at the UW. Here is what will happen - adolph walker will remove that from the current financial one so that he can proceed with "selling it". He will then give it away for pennies on the doller. He will then give out huge tax breaks to corporations (way more than what he took in when he "sold" the physical plant. The UW system will go into debt, and then he'll tell all the state employees to take another $1,000 per month to pay for it, and the UW will go from a world class institution to that of a small private school with no funds. It will happen if this is allowed to go through. It will be devastating, and absolutely none of this needs to happen. Unfortunately, if this does happen, will be way too late. By the time the drones snap out of it, it will be way too late.

The Knife is drawn. The line forms on the right, when MAC Heat is back in town. There are no parties, no Republicans nor Democrats. It is now only right or wrong, light or dark, living or dead. Those who still have a soul must choose carefully, for the soul that sinneth, it shall die.

Our democracy is already threatened and the Supreme Court is one of the biggest threats. Weakening and/or eliminating unions is just one battlefield in the attack on the working and middle classes. The corporatization of America and The Second Gilded Age are bipartisan efforts. It's good to see some Dems speak out in favor of unions, but, the party as a whole, seems to be throwing the unions under the bus. There is much more money controlled by the large corporations than in the unions and the Dems want their share. The regressives in both parties are taking us back to The Middle Ages. Instead of bringing other nations up to our standards, we are bringing our standards down to other nations. We need democracy, not corporatocracy.
WARDANCE by Killing Joke
Why not impeach? Because that would leave his lieutenant governor in place... and she is pretty scary, too. What we want is to recall him as soon as we can in 2012 and to recall the eight Republican state senators NOW who have been in office for more than one year. That should do the trick.
It is definitely the beginning of the end of Gov. Walker, not democracy. He has awakened the sleeping giant. There are real moves on the part of many to initiate recalls against the eight Republican state senators who have been on office for more than one year. We're practicing for January 2012 when Walker and the others will also be eligible for recall. You would not believe the energy here in Wisconsin right now. Over the weekend the governor was picketed in Neillsville, WI, the county seat of my strongly Republican county. Wow! Democracy can be FUN, not just work. (And check out the brave Democrats in Indiana, many of whom are taking refuge in Illinois. Maybe they can caucus with the Dems from Wisconsin and get something positive accomplished.) This is definitely the beginning, not the end, of a real Democracy movement.

The Koch Brothers make Billions. Why is it that these billionaires are funding gov walker and right wing politicians to eliminate Unions? And why do they still want tax breaks? And why did gov walker give 160 Million in tax breaks to the rich in Wisconsin and now wants the middle class to pay Wisconsin’s debt?
And you worry about a Union leader increasing his wages by 74,000 in four years? What about corporate leaders taking home $100 Million? Or $200 Million?
Secret - WE are not ALL Stupid!! This post of yours is either totally off the wall or you may be getting a lot of $$$ to post it!
Just a little know fact to
Here are two paragraphs from a recent PDA email.
After bailing out the bazillionaires on Wall Street, and throwing billions at a bad war in Iraq and a failed war in Afghanistan, the GOP’s answer to the voters of America is austerity and more sacrifice for anyone earning under a hundred grand a year—and that’s most of us. We can kiss goodbye our jobs, home ownership, our children’s education, healthcare, Social Security, and a host of other necessities that generate prosperity.
Last week, President Obama echoed the Republican frame when he jumped into bed with the GOP to see who could force more austerity into the proposed budget by cutting the necessities on which millions of unemployed, poor, and middle-class workers depend. Any government aid to help average Americans is on the chopping block, from home-heating assistance to women’s healthcare, while the most wasteful and inflationary spending—the “defense” budget—is increased.
