Oslo: ALL Sexual Assaults ending in Rape commited by Non-Westerners (by blogspotKitmanTV)
All of a sudden, a host of alarming headlines re. the Economy and the Dollar. I wonder what TPTB are up to this time.
Weird synergy of breakup related data factorums today:
Woman talking loudly behind me at Starbucks today, telling Jason why its over. ‘Because its been about you, Jason, all about you for the last 3 years!’
Some bluesy singer telling me with great conviction ‘A woman can only take so much, and then she has had enough!’ Oh ho!
An article in my feeds about ‘surviving the breakup’. I wonder if Jason, whoever he is, would find it comforting? Somehow I doubt it.
I note unrelated, and entirely en passant that women frequently feel they have given everything and gotten very little in return.
You will hear this refrain over and over and over again from women. Is it a martyr complex, or a failure upon the part of men to look out for our helpers?
If womens be our helpers, as per Genesis, then maybe this is valid! They give, and men are clueless often how to show appreciation. Many times a day, and seemingly endlessly, expressions of thankfulness and courtesy and deference are your friends here. ‘Refresh me with raisin cakes’
It is a sign? Am I going to be dumped? And if so, by whom? There is none to dump me, Thank You Jesus. Jesus might spit me out His mouth, but He would never DUMP me, and He is the only one I can think of.
All I know is, once you get a woman past that point, its way harder to get them back into normalcy, so lets not push them into overdrive. They will take a lot, but once they blow a gasket, you might as well hang it up.
‘The care and feeding of womens’ is probably on the Oprah Book Club, but by golly, you gotta feed the womens every day, or they starve. Granted, none should depend upon another, and in this is maturity, but between here and there, for loves sake, lets give them some attention on a regular basis, and try to put ourselves in their shoes, but not the high heeled ones. OK.
Don’t be so sure that banks are not the ones behind the recent ‘Fraudclosure’ stuff I see folks crowing over.
They don’t WANT all those defaulted houses to hit the market, further depressing housing prices thru increased supply.
Plus, do you really think Obama, far and away biggest recipient of Wall Street cash during the last election, would allow anything to happen in the banking world that actually HURT Wall Street, or at least, looked to punish them more than they feel like paying for PR?
Retirement accounts: Regulated investments so the gov’t and Wall Street can influence where your money GOES and where it IS.
IE, it GOES into… Wall Street!
It IS…. where the gov’t can get its hands on it!
Some types of tax deferred accounts, you can manage them yourselves thru an online trading account. But afaik you are still constrained to the abstracted and imaginary matrix of Wall Street, ETF’s, equities, etc.
In any case, might be time to consider drawing your money out now, and laying it aside as either cast, or into hard investments like real estate, precious metals, survivalism gear in the case of natural disasters, unrest, etc, or even just paying off debts.
The best thing you could do with your money, of course, is to invest it with God by giving it away.
He who gives to the poor LENDS to the LORD
You might not get paid back till That Day, which actually would probably be a best case scenario in the long run. But money will stick to the people who are right now cultivating generosity.
This dynamic will become more and more important as the fundamentals of society begin to be squeezed and shaken.
Anyways, folks might want to look at what is going on in other Western democracies and plan for it to happen here in the USA at some point probably not so far into the future.
Don’t let that ‘tax bite’ scare you off. That tax bite now will be far less than what the Gov’t leaves you if they plunder your IRA to pay for entitlement programs.
You can always buy gold and silver… physical, of course.
Don’t rush out, necessarily, but be aware. This stuff may or may not be coming to the USA, but maybe you should put your assets where they cannot get them so easily. At least make them work for it!

Will True Finns succeed in stopping bailout of the PIIGS?
I always thot Finns were universally and confirmed commies, but the transcript of this speech, I will admit, it thrilled me!
Def worth reading.
