I know a guy who's into tarot, and another who's a satanist.  Should they ever bring them up to me, I'll link them to this. ^_^

"There is no subtler, no surer means of overturning the existing basis of society than to debauch the currency. The process engages all the hidden forces of economic law on the side of destruction, and does it in a manner which not one man in a million is able to diagnose." --John Maynard Keynes

This entire article: The Wasted Vote Lie by Lee Wrights

Great article. Posted it on facebook. Of course it already received one response:

QuoteYeah but it works. Power lies where people believe it to be. It the people perceive power to be in a certain place then that mass perception of power is little different then power itself. The lie has become the truth.

While it is true that any good con can work on the masses, eventually, once you expose it for what it is, people come around and realize that they've been duped the entire time.

Unfortunately though, a lot of Americans DO want to see the debt ceiling raised, not because raising the debt limit is a good thing, but because they were fooled by the scare mongers in the media and in government who told them that if we don't do this then this country would spiral down into economic Armageddon, despite the fact that there isn't a shred of evidence that shows this. What people should realize is that Washington isn't trying to raise the debt ceiling, but rather the spending limit of this country. Increasing this "debt ceiling" is nothing more than a means for which the government can spend as frivolously as they want like they always will.
