The fact that there is not a filter to PREVENT pornography from being accessed on a TAX-PROVIDED computer system with access to children is proof that the country has gone to hell completely. Thirty yeas ago, anyone could get pornography, but they had to go out of their way and do it totally on their on dime. Now, we have clowns in DC who want FREEDOMS that DESTROY morality and everything good, yet they want to KILL freedoms that are in the Constitution, granted by our MAKER. If they had their way, a legal citizen with no criminal record should not have access to a gun, and a private business owner should not be able to put a manger scene up at Christmas, but a prisoner should be able to sue people, get a college degree from stolen tax money, and pornography should be available to everyone from age 5 and up, so that the number of perverts roaming the streets keeps doubling. AND, they stick people in prison for smoking a joint alone and hurting no one, while letting thousands of their pornography, broken family, no morals CREATED perverts wander through all our neighborhoods.
How this group of privileged sociopaths in DC have maneuvered the system into what it currently is, TOTALLY for their benefit, is astounding.
In theory, that's true, but to practically get something going to try and save THIS country economically, anyone without a REAL social security number (don't lecture me on those -- I get it), should be deported -- or at least DENIED ALL services including food, school, housing, medical care, etc. Can't afford any more people until the gov't PROVES it can run without taxing the crap out of those working and doing it without deficits.
All this banter is useless, as the top .01% will live like billionaires until everything implodes, and then they go underground to live the same way until those left on top kill off 90%.
Go see Elysium. That is their dream in reality.
No matter the rules, someone has to pay the bill, and like always, that will be the already stretched tax payers who work the longest hours in this country of moochers.
The country has gone to hell, and the MSM, the sham of a gov't, and about 75% of the males in two races have been responsible for a great amount of the destruction.
If anyone can read this and not get physically ill, then you are a part of the problem in this country. Disgusting!
Where was Jerkoff Jackson and Shithead Sharpton when this happened?

Why don't they leave Florida and move to Californication or Washington D&C? I'm sure crime would drop considerably.
If every illegal and every unmarried, non-working male of any race would move to CA and DC, the rest of the country would be a million times better off.

And if you study the Constitution and the intent of the Founding Fathers, you'd agree on the 3/5th of the States being able to overturn a Supreme Court decision. Do you know how many misfits have stayed and rendered incompetent decisions on the Supreme Court? They were not meant to have this ultimate power over all the people. Term limits on them would at least be a good start!
Well, of course, but at least term limits would get rid of the current crop soon and not give them KINGDOM/SULTAN LIVING for LIFE!
What NEEDS to be done is for the CONGRESS to grow a pair and set up TERM LIMITS for Congress, the Supreme Court, AND make a 2/3 - 3/5ths vote by the States have the ability to OVERTURN any decision by the Supreme Court. The Founding Fathers NEVER intended for the Executive Branch, the Congress, OR the Supreme Court to have these almost unlimited powers over the people!
This is a freaking REPUBLIC. It is not a Democracy of MOB RULE, as the MSM and those in power would like the sheeple to believe.

40 Percent Of U.S. Workers Make Less Than What A Full-Time Minimum Wage Worker Made In 1968
American workers may struggle, but NOT the RULING CLASS. These leeches make $174,000 plus up to $1.9 million each for personal aides (think Lewinsky-type beck and call girls plus chefs, personal trainers, speech writer, dog trainers -- and can pay them up to $150,000 each -- dog trainer makes $40,000 but the hot blond with knee pads gets $100,000 and an apartment and car) to do everything for them, expense money, franking, foreign travel, domestic travel, retirement benefits, special insurance, and on and on.
While the workers scape by on $10 per hour to eat and watch color TV, how much of a stash do you think at zero percent interest rates (thanks uncle Ben) would one need to spin off the roughly $2-$2.5 MILLION each Congress "person" spends in good old stolen tax money each year?
While you do the calculations on that and see that these people who make the rules live like kings and billionaires, I'll go puke again.

It will be madness in America soon, Out of control
I bought a copy of USA Today Weekend at the supermarket and wanted to gag. A front-page lead story showing a picture of Edward Snowden's Russian permit was titled: "Welcome, Comrade Snowden" (Is John McCain now writing their headlines?). To read American mainstream news is to collide with an illusory but impenetrable wall of rigid propaganda (rah, rah, America #1; rah, rah, S&P 1700; rah, rah, Washington vs. a world of enemies). In short, the paper's almost one-million readers were encouraged. In so many words, "Don't worry about NSA. Congress has heard the American people and is now moving to reform it. Sleep well tonight, Senator Patrick Leahy is awake."
The mood is critically nervous among those who have written for years about America's war atrocities, descent into post-democracy, vulture economics, systemic corruption and international lawlessness; they might be seeing their worst nightmares - the ones they wished to prevent - occurring, and ones worse becoming more probable.
Why write for a people who appear to have done nothing to preempt their current security (police) state and growing despotism? Why write (or be a whistle-blower) to be demonized, criminalized and decapitated by the very people you are trying to warn? On one hand, writers might pay a heavy price for what they commit to print; on the other hand, they fulfill themselves and fulfill the First Amendment - they speak the truth as they see it. At this juncture, however, the time for using words freely, casually and directly might be changing.
And the time for sustaining the juvenile notion of a world jealous of America's wealth and liberty needs be long buried.
Writer Paul Craig Roberts is correct this week in his vitriol:
"The schizophrenic denizens of Washington have made Americans a hated people. Those with the foresight to know to escape from the growing tyranny also know that wherever they might seek refuge, they will be seen as vermin from the most hated nation and subjected to being scapegoated as spies and evil influences, and at risk of being decimated in reprisals against Washington’s latest atrocity.
"Washington has destroyed the prospects of Americans both at home and abroad."
Not one person wants "the People" to share blame or wants to apply the word "fascism" to the American security-state. Yet, it is the majority of people in America who, for one reason or another, are responsible for their predicament, as the majority of German people during WWII were responsible for theirs and the Japanese people theirs. A democracy thrives from awake, alert individuals; an unbiased press; a tolerance of diverse opinions; and laws (the Constitution and international treaties). As it stands today, Americans have chosen authoritarianism over democracy; consumerism over citizenship; censorship over free-thought; militancy over diplomacy; financial oppression over equity. When they should have they didn't force President Obama to close Gitmo; end the wars; constrain the FBI, CIA, NSA and Gen. Keith B. Alexander; indict financial CEOs and officers. They didn't rebel over airport body scanners; RFID chips in passports; indefinite detentions; torture; state-sponsored assassinations; death squads; military war crimes; drones; Wall Street and corporate pillage of Main Street; or, for that matter, they didn't criminalize anyone except those who "blew the whistle" or dissented. Mr. Obama's constituents are "waking up" (after five years) if comments left at The New York Times over Snowden revelations are any indication. But I place much blame on "Obama people" who, on the one hand, voted for the president to reverse the tide of war and international disgrace generated by former President George W. Bush (or so they claimed); and on the other enabled if not cheered Mr. Obama as he perpetuated the same and worse practices. These are hypocrites.
What destruction and death has been and is propagated by the United States armed forces against the world will now be visited on "the People". What economic exploitation has been waged against the third world countries by American banks and investors will now be waged against "the People". What civil wars the Pentagon and CIA have engineered in the Mid-East will now be applied at home. And if it takes a regime change in Washington, it too will be done. It will be madness in America from this point forward; the world is in its cross hairs and knows it.
Some Americans will cheer a military coup, an assassination, a civil war, a de facto war against most of the planet. The world believed in a president who was never his own man; who sold out early; who relied on stage managers and PR to conceal his identity and conceal the identities of controllers from finance, the Pentagon and intelligence community. Since Snowden, the world has a clearer idea of the untrustworthiness of America's leadership, its corporations and military.
(I believe Mr. Obama might not continue as President, and believe a financial-military coup might have already occurred.)
In this week's Asia Times, Pepe Escobar concludes:
"For the moment, what we have is an Orwellian/Panopticon complex that will persist with its unchecked powers; an aphasic populace; a quiet, invisible man in a Moscow multitude; and a POTUS consumed with boundless rage. Watch out. He may be tempted to wag the (war) dog."
It will be madness in America soon, out of control.

GET READY TO VOMIT
For now, 58.7 per cent of American adults are working if the actual employment-population ratio is taken into consideration, leaving about 82 million, or almost 41 per cent of people unemployed. Only 8 per cent, however, are even interested in work, leaving 33 per cent of Americans not only jobless — but with no desire for work.
They spout unemployment figures of 7.6%, which is pure BS! For the fed gov't, the word "unemployed" must meet a strict definition, which is:
"A person who is actively looking for work by filling out applications and who really, really wants to work and is motivated to find a job close to what they have been capable of making in the past . . . this is a truly unemployed person."
Does anyone with an IQ over 70 see a problem with this? How about this much easier definition:
"A person who is between the ages of 18-65 and capable of working, but they have no job, for whatever reason, is UNEMPLOYED."
Isn't that a bit closer to reality?
Well, there are roughly 202 million WORKING AGE Americans, and 82 million are NOT working. Subtract about 14 million of this group who are on disability payments (7%), and you have 68 million, working age, NON-disabled Americans OUT OF WORK.
For those WITH an IQ over 70, let's do the TRUE math. What percentage of 202 million WORKING AGE Americans who are capable of working, yet they are NOT working, is 68 million people? Drum roll . . . 33.66%
THAT is the TRUE unemployment figure. And this makes a LOT more sense to anyone with an IQ over 70, because there are now 36% of 18-31 year olds living with their parents. Now, some of these have jobs, but they can't make it on their own.
FINALLY, when anyone with an IQ over 70 looks at the jobs that Barry and company have helped to create in his tenure, they will see that most are low-paying and part-time jobs. So, of the 66.34% of working age Americans who DO have jobs, a LARGE percentage of those are BARELY making enough money to eat. Some statistics say 50% of the jobs in America now pay less than $30,000. WHO CAN LIVE ON $30,000?
The scum in DC (ALL those in CONGRESS) have budgets (STOLEN money from those Americans who ARE working their butts off) that allow them to hire 18 full-time plus 4 part-time personal staff -- EACH -- (let that soak in and think chefs, personal trainers, interns wearing knee pads), and pay EACH one of these "positions" up to $150,000 a year!
IS ANYONE LISTENING? Are THE PEOPLE now comprised of mostly UNDER 70 IQs? SHEEPLE????
33% UNEMPLOYMENT! 50% of those working making less than $30,000. Average savings is near ZERO! Almost 40% of 18-31 LIVING WITH PARENTS! Less than 8% of workers making over $75,000!
But EACH Congress person is allowed to steal tax money by the millions to hire over 20 people EACH to help them do their freaking jobs, and they can pay them EACH $150,000!
The country is ruled by a TINY number of SULTANS and KINGS, and they live that way, all while laughing at the pitiful peon sheeple they steal from.
When this system cracks, it will not be pretty. Think Rome.
Think the Congress Sultans are not laughing all the way to the bank and living like kings with aides feeding them grapes and crawling around under all their desks? Scroll down to PERSONAL STAFF and EXPENSES, and begin to PUKE:

But EACH Congress person is allowed to steal tax money by the millions to hire over 20 people EACH to help them do their freaking jobs, and they can pay them EACH $150,000!
The country is ruled by a TINY number of SULTANS and KINGS, and they live that way, all while laughing at the pitiful peon sheeple they steal from.
When this system cracks, it will not be pretty. Think Rome.
Think the Congress Sultans are not laughing all the way to the bank and living like kings with aides feeding them grapes and crawling around under all their desks? Scroll down to PERSONAL STAFF and EXPENSES, and begin to PUKE:

GET READY TO VOMIT
For now, 58.7 per cent of American adults are working if the actual employment-population ratio is taken into consideration, leaving about 82 million, or almost 41 per cent of people unemployed. Only 8 per cent, however, are even interested in work, leaving 33 per cent of Americans not only jobless — but with no desire for work.
They spout unemployment figures of 7.6%, which is pure BS! For the fed gov't, the word "unemployed" must meet a strict definition, which is:
"A person who is actively looking for work by filling out applications and who really, really wants to work and is motivated to find a job close to what they have been capable of making in the past . . . this is a truly unemployed person."
Does anyone with an IQ over 70 see a problem with this? How about this much easier definition:
"A person who is between the ages of 18-65 and capable of working, but they have no job, for whatever reason, is UNEMPLOYED."
Isn't that a bit closer to reality?
Well, there are roughly 202 million WORKING AGE Americans, and 82 million are NOT working. Subtract about 14 million of this group who are on disability payments (7%), and you have 68 million, working age, NON-disabled Americans OUT OF WORK.
For those WITH an IQ over 70, let's do the TRUE math. What percentage of 202 million WORKING AGE Americans who are capable of working, yet they are NOT working, is 68 million people? Drum roll . . . 33.66%
THAT is the TRUE unemployment figure. And this makes a LOT more sense to anyone with an IQ over 70, because there are now 36% of 18-31 year olds living with their parents. Now, some of these have jobs, but they can't make it on their own.
FINALLY, when anyone with an IQ over 70 looks at the jobs that Barry and company have helped to create in his tenure, they will see that most are low-paying and part-time jobs. So, of the 66.34% of working age Americans who DO have jobs, a LARGE percentage of those are BARELY making enough money to eat. Some statistics say 50% of the jobs in America now pay less than $30,000. WHO CAN LIVE ON $30,000?
The scum in DC (ALL those in CONGRESS) have budgets (STOLEN money from those Americans who ARE working their butts off) that allow them to hire 18 full-time plus 4 part-time personal staff -- EACH -- (let that soak in and think chefs, personal trainers, interns wearing knee pads), and pay EACH one of these "positions" up to $150,000 a year!

NOTHING ever applies to the .01%ers, yet the sheeple still praise them for their brilliant lawmaking. Unbelievable.
‘Urgent’ Obamacare tweak creates outrageous exemption for Congress
August 2, 2013 by Joe Saunders 1 Comment and 0 Reactions
One of the perks of working for a lawmaker during a reign of lawlessness is that the laws they make don’t apply to you.
At least not the same way they do to the rest of the country.
obamacarecapitolThat gets clearer every day under the Obama administration, as it stumbles its way toward the socialized medicine experiment known as Obamacare and daily is forced to come up with ways to make sure the despised law doesn’t apply to the very people that are responsible for its existence.
Under a plan reported late Thursday in Politico, the Office of Personnel Management, the bureaucracy in charge of human resources for the federal government, has decided taxpayers will cover the cost of congressional staffers health insurance premiums, even though they are purchased through the new insurance exchanges being set up for individuals buying health insurance on their own because they can’t get it from their employer.
Until the OPM plan was announced – with the very personal involvement of President Obama, according to Politico – congressional staffs were looking at a huge increase in their out-of-pocket payments for health insurance.
The biggest problem, according to Politico, is that members of Congress feared a “brain drain” as the most experienced legislative aides left for the private sector because of the impositions of Obamacare.
So the damage Obamacare is poised to inflict on the American economy is sustainable, but Congress must act to exempt its own employees from it lest the government itself be left incapable of functioning? Either they’re really fool enough to really believe that, or they think we are. (And they aren’t fools.)
And the best part of all, the president of the United States himself, the man who said, “if you like your health-care plan, you will be able to keep your health-care plan,” had to step in to make sure some well-connected people who liked their health-care plan would be able to keep their health-care plan.
Normally, if there’s a problem with a law, the answer is to change the law. But with a deadline of Oct. 1 looming, and the administration too afraid of the House of Representatives elected by the American people to even attempt to look at the law that created Obamacare through normal channels, the president’s personal involvement was necessary.
Ayn Rand had a name for that. In “Atlas Shrugged,” she called it the “Aristocracy of Pull.”
That’s the world of Obamacare.

Just can't make this stuff up...
Hit it on the head again. The country is full of about 68% "stupid and willingly blind and deaf" sheeple. Sad, isn't it?
How sweet of him!
