I Figured Something Out About Government

I'm currently on a trip with my daughter through the heart of what is called "The State of Jefferson". Google the history on that. I think you'll find it very interesting. The northern 40% of California is absolutely amazing!!! Tons of natural beauty. Nice people. Tons of natural resources. I drove through Susanville and am typing this from the gorgeous location of Trinidad. I, like all of my fellow Gulchers, pass through places with my eyes wide open and my brain in gear. This part of the US is very, very rural. Lots of small towns. Almost all eateries are small, and family owned. They are staffed from a very limited population of the very small communities they serve. COVID and it's shutdown, by the way, devastated this economy - which is largely driven by the mom-and-pop eateries and lodging. Also...there are massive swarths of pine forests here that are standing relics...badly burned by massive forest fires in the past couple years. The entire north part of California share one commonality with the rest of the state - homelessness. Hobos are everywhere there are any kind of resource. Everywhere. One of my favorite towns, Eureka, has been ruined by them. What I realized is that, given the COVID lockdowns, the huge bureaucratic government in Sacramento is keeping this part of the state in constant depression with it's onerous regulations - Regulations that kill logging, take over water resources, divvy out road construction dollars, etc. These nice, industrious, grass-roots citizens don't stand a chance. The little town of Orick sits in what looks like a postcard. Amazing place. At least half the main drag is empty storefronts. The common folk in such areas only have pot, meth and not much else. The squalor discourages investment. It's very sad to see. I seriously considered retiring up here but I elected to escape California altogether. If I didn't have kids to take care of I probably would have bit the bullet and hidden out up here - getting rid of any signs of any wealth, just fitting in to enjoy the fishing and hiking. California's massive government is choking this area off terribly. For all the years I lived and worked in NorCal I always marveled at the conundrum of Clear Lake. I went through it often for work and would always marvel at the epic contrast of incredible natural beauty combined with horrible poverty. Now...It's clear to me that places like this could never prosper with such a huge, leftist, disconnected government.

    Abaco with a bit of searching about Agenda 2030 you would find the rural areas are to be clear of people. They want everyone to live in the large population centers . The destruction of the economy is designed for people to beg for the Qreat Reset. Digital currency , universal income and no ownership of private property. It will be a Technocracy , where unelected “so-called” experts will decide how much food you get , with the Internet of things your energy usage will be recorded and monitored , how much energy you can use willbe based on an opinion of what’s sustainable. These satanic scum will burn in Hell for all eternity.

      I just read that B of A and Wells have switched to Quantum this past week. Also the US Treasury failed audit. 2030 here we go.

        What is Quantum?

          Quantum Financial System.
          This is supposed to eliminate or restrict monopolies on monetary systems.
          This is what those who are developing and instituting the systems express.
          Here are examples:

            Thanks, wasn't sure if you were referring to quantum computing or something else?

            Quantum computing is still in its infancy, personally I'm more concerned with the practicable implementation of narrow AI, this has been perfected and is already implemented all around us and most of us have no idea. The power of AI is very scarry stuff as they have the ability to effectively predict the future. Monitoring your thoughts and motivation is easy while classifying the “type” of consumer you are. Marketing has been using and perfecting narrow AI for quite some time. Have you ever had a conversation with someone about a popular product then within 24 hours, that produce is being advertised directly to you? My theory is that Google does enable the mic on your phone and is processing what is said around you for key words, now for advertising, later for tyranny.

            This is why the NWO groups wants a digital currency, more data to feed AI, more control, more power over your choices.

              Remember after Brandon took office and they added wording to the Build Back Better budget to allow the government to audit your checking account for yearly transactions of 600.00 then they changed it to 10,000.00. Luckily that didn’t pass… Who doesn’t have 10K flowing through a bank account over one calendar year? This is for AI training; the government will own your ass and throw away the keys quicker than a January 6th protester goes to jail if you even consider fighting back. They will build models that look at all of the data available on you and predict if you’re a NWO PITA or just an average red neck.

                NWO PITA: As long as you can see me everything is safe. HeHeHehehehh.
                I'll be going off grid by years end. One of the things I need established within my consortium is a monetary medium that we can exchange outside our group. Set up a front of some sort and keep a low profile......

                Chicago Style..........LOL!

                  I already did, moved to Idaho and homesteaded some land. Working on garden, chickens, cattle and building connections with my new neighbors. Transferred all cash to gold and silver.

                  It's funny when you speak to someone about what is going on and they refuse to acknowledge what is happening. It's obvious if you open your eye. I find it interesting to listen to people complain how stupid our government is but in actuality it's a concerted effort to destroy our way of life. It's happened before, I've heard many speak about this is how their country fell into communism. Mass death is also part of that, they kill the intellectuals.

                  Your judged to be crazy until you're considered a genius.

                    Two years ago was my last trip out of Minneapolis (spent 30 years). So many folks there have no connection to the things that sustain life. They live extraordinary subjective lives. They have read about many things in passing but do not have first hand experience in what I deem the foundational five of human trade/commerce; foraging, forestry, fishery, farming and foundry. They have no idea of the life of field/forest/farm. The pride in this ignorance I deem "stupid"; a reticence to take the time to explore, resulting in arrested development. Yet, if I have no exposure to these experiences I cannot have the idea to explore in the first place. And "Soma" in so many facets distracts.
                    Last summer I had a call from one of my "street peoples". Holla asked if I could get him out of the city for a couple of weeks. He only vaguely remembered being rural as a kid. I took him into my community and exposed him to something new. A lifestyle of living from the earth instead of what the "concrete jungle" offered. He spent more time looking around, observing and quietly processing. The lack of dense urban noise and activity was unnerving for him. He only got one week. One of the clan had been shot and killed and there was a swell of retribution talk. I've not heard from him in 10 months. I guess the seed of escape from NIHM (Universe 25, John Calhoun ref.) didn't take.

              The second link I sent (Japan) has implemented quantum computing for finance. I know the chair of the Japanese Finance Committee; Minoru Nakazato. In Sep. 2017 I asked him if they were doing anything to distance themselves from the FED or IMF. I found out a few months later that the quiet hiss of intake of breath through closed teeth is a sign of taboo for Japanese. I never got a clear answer and he's not returned emails I occasionally send, though he stays in contact with my uncle.
              Best guess is part of the NWO agenda 21. There are millions of inductees by proxy through the global university systems. Look into Minoru's credentials: Harvard/Tokyo international finance and tax law is his specialty.

      This may be a perfect explanation. It's insane how much these little communities are suffering. Completely insane to the point of being surreal...

        "cacotopia"/"kakotopia" (using Ancient Greek: κακόs, "bad, wicked) “suppose a cacotopia (or the imagined seat of the worst government) discovered and described".
        The result of Kakistocrats running the Failing state of Kakistofornia.

      We need to convert the country to Objectivism. Un-
      fortunately, that is not happening any too fast, and the movie version of Atlas Shrugged was not all that much help, as it did not begin to do justice to the book.

        The Objectivist's Ethics is the key. Bring it into simpler, first hand experience language for the "lay". Rand wrote this as if addressing a collegiate peer group. Why do I need values (objectively)? Because I am LIFE. This is the first stage of explanation. For someone adept in reading comprehension and life experience this appears self evident. Children can learn the concepts in simpler language and then the life experiences support. Trying to overcome complex abstraction, beliefs, is the most difficult task for adults. Morris Massey presented this in 1976 with: What You Are Is Where You Were When.
        I know these items to be reasonable as I was very young when exposed to the concepts. Age 9 for Future Shock, 13 for Massey, 14-16 for Anthem, Fountainhead and Atlas. I've 45 years of proving out, making choices, being led astray and returning to the core. The most influential is 45 years with Tao te'Ching. Along with this is about 95 years of teaching/curriculum writing within 3 of my immediate family. For me, working within these conditions seems natural. If not exposed to such concepts until after adulthood there is so much unlearning to do as other influence creates subjective bias. None of us is immune to the charlatan until we have [developed] an objective knowledge of what we are as living organisms, and then that of creatures that require formal language skills to convey our physical and emotional/cognitive status.

            1% idea and 99% work. The removal of fear of being "wrong", especially for children, is first goal. The second is to foster an enthusiastic environment of exploration. My dad, initially confounded by the lack of vocabulary in his first teaching experience, introduces Scrabble as a classroom activity. He was excoriated by a peer who had been teaching in the school for 20 years. His kids were laughing in class. And they learned. The second year a handful of his students placed in the top ten Iowa State Speech competition. I observed this at age 8. More is caught than is taught!

            Considering this is Easter Sunday, perhaps we could resurrect Rand's work under these conditions. I know to the core of my being that this is the philosophical context for the Phoenix of humanity to rise again.

    i once read a sci-fi story about being that inhabit our bodies
    seems their goal is to stifle human advancement, keeping us earth bound as they must live in a gravity well

    they are discovered by an astronaut that is on his way to Mars when the critter flees his body to not be destroyed when his ship travels far enough from the Earth
    once free, his mind expands, he realizes things he had never thought of before

    it is almost as if politicians and government ARE these creatures holding back human advancement

      Absolutely. I can relate. What I notice is how the average person just hands over power to these elected, slick-back-hair car salesmen and people in costumes. Amazing to watch...

    I'm so glad I don't live in California. I live in Virginia.
    Virginia is also very rural (in spots) and that is not good for someone who has epilepsy and cannot drive a car, but there are places where one can live and go places on buses; and, in Richmond, there are now bike racks on the buses, so one can ride to the end of the line and bike-ride to a place.

    It is agenda 2030 at work no doubt.
    Many times people say erroneously that “They’re trying to divide us!” Not at all. They’re trying to smash us all together. It is a New Feudalism THEY seek. They’ll steal the REAL and sell you the FAKE. Meta verse is a perfect example. Reject all of their garbage.
