What it Takes

 

What it Takes


What it takes to be the father (or mother) of a homeless community.

It takes a willingness to wake up at all hours of the night and answer the call because someone is hungry and needs to eat now. It takes the devotion to answer the door because someone has literally shit their pants and needs to get cleaned up and changed now. It takes the fortitude to treat the sick who are afflicted with a nauseating abscess. It takes Love.

It takes the patience to accept being lied to in a calculating manner by someone who is selfish and manipulative as hell, and still loving them. It takes far more patience than you will be afforded. It takes far more patience than you thought you had. You have it, just be patient and you'll see. It takes the courage to tell the truth especially when you’d rather not. It takes the humility to say, “I don’t know the answer.” It takes the dogged determination to find out. It takes the judgment to tell the difference between an important task and a fool’s errand. It takes Love.

It takes the ability to put whatever you're doing aside because someone has hit rock bottom, even if you know they haven’t seen anything that solid. It takes the certitude that God does not create garbage even if they are dressed and smell the part. It takes the ability to ascertain someones physical, mental, spiritual, and chemical disposition at a glance. It takes the ability to care more about someone than they care about themselves. It takes Love.

It takes a lot of time.  It takes a lot longer than you planned. It takes a lot longer than that. Way longer still. This is not an hourly employees position. It's a vocation and it pays in the end. You'll see, just be patient. It takes responding at a moments notice. It takes the ability to make definite plans with someone who will not show up even though you will. It takes a firm hand with a gentle touch. It takes respect for the disrespectful, trust in the untrustworthy, and hope for the hopeless. It takes the serenity to watch the same mistakes being made over and over again and trying to get them to see those mistakes over and over again. Maybe they will. Probably not, but we don't give up because they are not hopeless if were the one hoping for them. It takes care without ulterior motives or an agenda. It takes the ability to connect with someone others wouldn’t dare approach. It takes an open heart and an open wallet because in the final accounting you’re on your own. It takes Love.

It takes a deep respect for humanity and an even deeper respect for the human being. It takes listening to a lot of very smart, very respectable, and very well off people telling you that you’re wasting your time, and then ignoring them because you still know they’re wrong. It takes the rare quality to see quality where others only count quantity. It takes a definitive knowledge of where your job ends and God’s job begins, and always respecting that line. It takes Love.

It takes a significant number of cigarettes numbering in the tens of thousands. It takes great risk to your emotional well being. It takes the perseverance to bury a child and then move on because the others need your care. It takes lots of Love.

It takes a certain (particular) and certain (assured) form of mental illness we call PARENTHOOD. It takes Love. That is what it takes to be the father (or mother) , of a homeless community, which is exactly the same skill set it takes to be a parent. The difference is one you choose and the other… chooses you, and the success ratio is a hell of a lot thinner.

The unqualified need not apply.

The one and only benefit you can count on is when you arrive at the gates of Heaven you need only say, "It's me" and they will open. They will open.

It's called "Accountability"

 It's called "Accountability"

(and you are very unaccustomed to it)


Labor for money and money for labor sounds like a reasonable middle ground from here, doesn't it? Which it is according to many people working everyday around the planet, but then along comes people who decided that's not good enough

...AND they want services too. .

...AND they want only the government to provide them all.

...AND they want to set the prices too.

...AND they want them all to be cheaper and more efficient than the market can provide.

...AND they want free health care.

...AND free education and college.

...AND a good, free pension also.

...AND free housing as well.

...AND they want billionaires to pay for it all their "free" stuff.

...AND they want women to have special Rights.

...AND minorities to have even more special Rights.

...AND minority, gay women to have even more special Rights.

...AND minority, gay men who think they are women to have yet more special Rights than all of them.

...AND they want minority, gay men who think they are women to sit on every corporate board.

...AND they want to set their salaries too.

...AND now let's talk about the environment, safe spaces, and more bullshit we make up along the way because we’re just getting started when it comes to out never ending, asinine demands that we are going to pretend are basic human Rights.

...Just because you want my 40 hours of labor per week.


If that all sounds totally reasonable to you...


You are an idiot!

An idiot who overvalues their worth by a large measure, and you are why every fucking thing we buy today reads "Made in China".

You unreasonable, innumerate, arrogant idiot.

It was you. You fucked us! Every man, woman, gender you can pretend exists, and child in America who isn't a billionaire is now totally fucked because of you.


So, don't tell me you are "for the Worker", "the common people", or "the underdog" because in every way you fucked them, you idiot!

How to Rob A Country (and totally get away with it)

It all begins with this…



because there is nothing more dangerous than a politician with a plan to help poor and marginalized folks out. 

Do you remember all those "toxic assets" that were clogging up the financial system back in 2008? 

You might be surprised to learn that those "toxic assets" were actually $3 trillion dollars worth of homes and real estate. Weird, huh? 

Guess who took all $3 trillion dollars worth of that real estate and homes? 

The Federal Reserve got all of them for free with the money they generated out of thin air, then loaned to the government at interest. Who in turn loaned it to the commercial banks at higher interest, who loaned it to your mortgage lender at even higher interest, who loaned it to you at even higher interest. So you could buy a house. But then the Federal Reserve who started this whole process with their conjured up fiat currency, jacks up interest rates which doubles you payments. You can't afford that, so you have to walk away from the loan because the property is so deep under water. You're like.. 

"Fuck it, I got it for No-Money Down! anyways", and you walk away…

Not realizing that the "No-Money Down!" clause was a lending standard instituted by the Federal Reserve. Then along comes the Resolution Trust Corporation, which is a holding company created by the Federal Reserve who takes your "Toxic Asset" home into receivership and sells their nice, new free house they got for the free money they created out of nothing, then sold it for one hell of a profit when the Federal Reserve dropped interest rates to zero and drove the value of properties to the stratosphere*.


But you're so financially ignorant you don't even know a crime had been committed. So, anyways have fun demanding the blood of some banker who didn't cause the problem or do anything wrong. You're just too busy crucifying one of the thieves at Christ's side while letting Satan off scott free.


* and created a bumper crop of homeless people too. Bonus, huh?

That's how to rob a country, and totally get away with it.

It's not a Holocaust



It's not a Holocaust. 
It's just how one starts...






Good government protects the Rights of the individual. This radically departs from good government. If you wish to end your own life, then we cannot stop you, but to be the primary actor in your demise?  Nothing good can come of this, and a great deal of evil will certainly follow. .

What Janet Yellen doesn’t know


What Janet Yellen doesn’t know about cryptocurrencies could fill the Library of Congress many times over. What Janet Yellen doesn’t know about cryptocurrencies could fill the empty bellies of starving children for generations to come. What Janet Yellen doesn’t know about cryptocurrencies could secure the vote against corruption permanently. What Janet Yellen doesn’t know about cryptocurrencies is they’re transforming the way we transact business, invest money, participate in entrepreneurship, play in our off time, and the way we claim ownership of both physical and virtual assets. What Janet Yellen doesn’t know about cryptocurrencies is that they have revolutionized the organization chart of corporate governance, transparency, and accountability. However, we can be certain that Janet Yellen knows that cryptocurrencies could make the retail bank an endangered and extinct species in short order. 


She knows that cryptos are a threat to the Federal Reserve and her banker buddies who together control the ebb and flow of wealth. She knows an insulting 0.1% interest rate on dollar denominated savings deposits is just a way of screwing every American with a pay cut extracted in 10% inflation before anyone was aware they were being paid in the Federal Reserve’s self-eviscerating currency.  Janet Yellen knows her part in continuing the faustian tragedy that is the American financial system. Her job is to protect and maintain the byzantine network of personal principalities that keep the heart of the zombie dollar beating for one more year, one more month, one more day, one more hour to keep you snacking on the same classic shit sandwich Americans have habitually choked down. 


Repeat after me: American banks are rock solid!  Regardless if they suffer catastrophic losses requiring taxpayer bailouts about once every ten years. During the 

apocalyptic devaluations, the financial sector posts triple digit gains, enormous bonuses, and spends billions lobbying Congress to add a word here or drop a sentence there in the latest financial reform bill. Meanwhile, Congress spends our money like a drunken sailor running up an unpayable debt until the next unholy creature pours his bowl of wrath upon the Earth. That is what Janice Yellen understands as “normal, responsible State-regulated finance” suitable for the American people and their families.


Throughout human history there have been milestones that gave humanity the power to achieve  the next level. Social organization, the discovery of language, writing, the domestication of animals, agriculture, trade, universal mediums of exchange, electricity, telecommunications, miniaturization, flight, and yes… cryptocurrencies. Our next milestone if only we would stop listening to the Bidens, Yellens, and the Powells grunting at us while beating their chests threateningly. Warning us to stay within the safety of Byzantium's impregnable walls and all will be well.

Laughing at the Bank

Let's do some math... 

0.1% interest - 8.1% inflation = -8% loss
(Feel free to check my math)

Some people think crypto is a scam


but those are the same people



who are earning 0.1% APR from the bank 


they've been banking with for 35 years on 


their dollars that lost 8.1% to inflation.


That's only 81 years worth of interest. 


So, who got scammed?

Monsanto, FDA, & EPA: No Suppression, Just Tacit Approval

 


https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/monsanto-suppressing-evidence-of-cancerous-herbicide-in-food/



You’ve got to love Snopes. Not only do they suck at what they do, but they don’t even try to hide it. They just blather on torpedoing their own integrity just as often as the corrupt institution they are trying to keep afloat.


So, let’s get this straight…

 

The product has been on the market since 1974 and is used on just about every grain we eat and the feed for the livestock we eat, and we can’t get a conclusive answer from the FDA or EPA over the course of nearly half a century regarding whether or not glyphosate causes cancer?  What would Snopes call that rather preposterously long amount of time to be potentially poisoning the American People, “red tape”, “Due diligence”,”a multi-generational deliberative process”? What?


Why hasn’t there been serious, intensive, and conclusive investigation into a chemical herbicide that is showing up in just about everything we eat over the last half a century, Snopes? If that isn’t being in “cahoots”, then it’s just plain “dereliction of duty”, “failure to care”, or maybe “garden variety incompetence”. 


Here’s FUCU’s approach to ferreting out the truth…


  1. Is this something the EPA and FDA have regulatory control over? YES

  2. Something that could have a catastrophic effect on Americans? YES

  3. Do we have the technology to run conclusive tests? YES

  4. Have the EPA and FDA run the tests? NO

  5. Why not? Uhm… Eh… Well, you see… I’ll invoke the Fifth.


In conclusion, while it is possible, but highly unlikely, the FDA and EPA are not suppressing the information about glyphosate, they certainly aren't doing much investigating, gathering, and disseminating either. FUCU can find no justifiable reason for the gross negligence, regulatory foot dragging, and a stellar failure to take initiative on what could be the wholesale poisoning of the American People by the FDA and EPA. This issue should be both agencies first and foremost issue to resolve before another molecule of glyphosate enters a baby's mouth.

Actions will always speak louder than words, but when it comes to glyphosate the FDA and EPA haven't provided much of either. Just an eerie half century of silence.

Conspiracy: As easy as 1, 2, or 3

 It's not a theory anymore..

Maddow Options



Watch this video and keep in mind there are only three options...

#1- She didn't know the truth and she was lied to, and in turn she lied to you. Which makes her a gullible moron and useful idiot.
#2 - She did know the truth which makes her so much worse.
#3 - No one knew the truth which means Pfizer did not test its "safe vaccine" and this has all been medical fraud and malpractice.
There are no other options. Take your pick.
