Mexico’s profitable drug trade could be reduced to a mere trickle if California legalizes marijuana. [Drug cartels depend on illegality to produce high profit margins. Legal substances, unless highly taxed, are of no use to drug lords. However, Mexican and California politicians already are talking about high marijuana tax revenues. This will push up the price and make it attractive to continue smuggling to avoid the tax, so the endless war on drugs likely will continue either way.] Washington Post 2010 Sep 10 (Cached)

US: 9/11 Commission (the politically appointed group that buried information about the possibility of an inside job on 9/11) issues a new report warning of “homegrown terrorists” and lists potential targets as passenger jets, hotel chains, Jewish or Israeli sites and American soldiers. [If 9/11 really was an inside job, homegrown terrorism likely will be the same.] Yahoo 2010 Sep 10 (Cached)

Canada’s Green Party plans to introduce federal legislation to remove toxic fluoride from public water supplies, thus overriding local mandates. [This is a mixed bag of good and bad. Good because fluoride should not be in public drinking water; bad because, if the federal government can forbid it, it also can require it. Local control is a friend of freedom.]

UN Top brass develop strategy to restore “climate change” as a top global priority and use it to achieve wealth redistribution.

Cuba: Castro says the old-style of Soviet Communism is not viable and no longer works. [Before jumping to the conclusion that Castro has become an anti-Communist, be aware that this is the same line advanced by Russia. By distancing themselves from the “excesses” of Stalin and the old-liners, they appear moderate and closer to the capitalist model. Don’t forget they still are dedicated collectivists with an affinity to Leninism. They are not defenders of liberty. Note, also, that the coordinator of the interview was a member of the CFR.] MSNBC 2010 Sep 8 (Cached)

The public is being conditioned to embrace the concept of geo-engineering the planet by placing toxic substances into the atmosphere to reduce mythical global warming.

US: Political fundraising sets new records a total of $1.2 billion for House and Senate candidates. Corporations are allowed to make unlimited donations. [It is sobering to realize that most of this money is spent to influence laws that will allow donors to get their money back plus much more through tax loopholes, subsidies, and legal restraints against competitors. No nation can long survive such corruption.] Yahoo 2010 Sep 7 (Cached)

US: 235 Congressmen have co-sponsored a bill to spend $1.6 billion on rehabilitation centers for gang members. The theory is that gang members want job training and tattoo removal if only the taxpayers will put up the money. [Sure! We are looking at just another bureaucratic money hole possibly even a method of recruiting gang members for politically useful activities.] DBKP 2010 Sep 7 (Cached)

US: Here are ten job categories that will not recover in the foreseeable future. Loss of over 8 million jobs in these industries must be offset by growth in others before there is a net increase in employment.

US: The new Financial Stability Oversight Council, made up of 10 “regulators” from the banking cartel, now has the power to break up large firms if, in the opinion of the Council, they could pose a threat to America’s financial stability. [Two problems: (1) The Constitution does not give the Federal Government such power, and (2) the regulators are the same politicians and bankers who have created the present financial crisis. This is window dressing at best; totalitarianism at worst.] Washington Post 2010 Sep 6 (Cached)

Obama asks Congress to approve $50 billion to improve roads, railways, and runways. The object, he says, is to stimulate the economy by creating jobs. [Let’s see.

Sure, that will work!] Yahoo 2010 Sep 6 (Cached)

UN World Health Organization is calling for higher vaccine production for the next global flu outbreak. [Last year the UN predicted millions of deaths that never happened and promoted mandatory vaccinations that produced huge profits for the drug companies and rumors of kickbacks to UN officials.
