Everybody assumes the government wants to do everything in its power to improve conditions in this country. But, just think for a moment about the unthinkable?
What if the policy makers of this country are beholden to financiers that funded their campaigns to get them into a position of power? What if said financiers resided overseas? What if their motivation was NOT for the improvement of the USA? If so, what's the endgame?
What if it's consolidation of power around the world? A new world order. How could this be achieved? It would take time to put the people in place. To undermine the Constitution. To unbalance the 3 branches and give the Executive branch more power than the others. To create a state of fear where citizens were willing to allow intrusions, to give up their personal protection from tyranny, to accept higher taxation. To take on more and more debt.
I'm not saying that the current world situation was engineered to force a One World System, but you'd have to be a sheep if that question hadn't crossed your mind this year.
I pray the people in power stand up in front of this coming tidal wave, though I doubt they have the conviction or ability to do so. I pray that I'm wrong about the diabolical nature of this threat and hope that I'm being overly-pessimistic and paranoid.
I wish us all the best and pray that Cortex can fulfill it's promise and potential. At times like these, hope can be a powerful ally.
Despite my losses, I still have the ability to contribute to some charities. Last night, my girlfriend and I sent the balance of our mad-money fund to a local charity that provides Thanksgiving meals to those in need. That felt really good! Way better than anything the stock market has created this year.
Sorry for the long diatribe. If you want to feel better about the long Cortex limbo, I recommend anyone that feels moved to act on it. We, the brotherhood of man, have to stick together and help each other out.
God bless!
