Not quite a conspiratorial person

03 Mar

I don’t think I’m the type of person who tries to embroil themselves in conspiracies.  And the more I look about me and the more I read I am coming to the conclusion that there is a conspiracy.

I don’t know if this conspiracy is only against the people of the United States or if it takes in the entire world.

It has taken me since 9/11 to figure out the planes did not crash into the Pentagon and that a flight with a number 93 did not crash in a field in Pennsylvania.  No matter how hard you try you cannot convince me that there are only two plane crashes in the world that resulted in no degree from a plane and that they both happen on the same day.

In reading a post from one of my favorite bloggers The Candid Blogger this morning, it finally dawned on me that the corporations of this country are probably deeper into the political parties then we will ever know.  I have always felt this way to a degree, but it never sunk into me that the corporations are involved in the logistics and the direction that the parties take.

In the background the major corporations purchase websites in preparation for issues that will come later. I give you this, again from the candid blogger

CNBC’s Rick Santelli’s call for a “tea party” in Chicago next summer was quickly picked up by a website called ChicagoTeaParty.com and spread from there to the Drudge Report. However, the ChicagoTeaParty.com domain is not new. It was registered last summer by the producer of a right-wing radio show in Chicago and, the writers allege, is one of several tied to the anti-tax group FreedomWorks, which is among the sponsors of the current protests.

In my mind this is just another example of how the corporations that we support through buying their products try to determine the outcome of our lives. It is to their advantage to do that, so that they can determine our physical ability to continue purchasing their products. I don’t know about you but I call this paranoia. Indeed to survive the corporations must manipulate your thoughts or your manner of thinking.

I LOVE It!

04 Feb

I live way out on a mountain.  Well it’s not a mountain it’s a foothill.  And as I look out over the valley and the city below me, I see a goodly amount of turkey vultures.  This is a common everyday occurrence in nothing new.  But today the vultures are roosting and trees right outside my window because the temperature of so cold.

And that is what is happening to Wall Street and certain banks.  President Obama and the Congress are about to limit the salaries of bank executives at $500,000.  While I am not one to advocate the government interfering in the workings of business, this is long overdue.  With the government now own a share of the banks, and the banks behaving nonrational in spending the money that they are receiving, I fully support the president’s initiative and capping their salaries.

From the Huffington Post:

According to the official, the proposals include:

_ Requiring top executives at financial institutions to hold stock for several years before they can cash out.

_ Requiring nonbinding “say on pay” resolutions _ that is, giving shareholders more say on executive compensation.

_ A Treasury-sponsored conference on a long-term overhaul of executive compensation

What Do You Do With Your Time?

31 Jan

I am unemployed.  And as such, I have a great deal of time on my hands.  What should I be doing and what am I doing with my time?

Most of my time is spent setting in front of this tubeless sidekick known as a computer with my php editor open and feveresly trying to figure out where I went wrong with the latest swizzle stick of functions and then what happened to the stuff I did yesterday.  Damm.  its hard to get ahead while looking back.

On the other hand, I should be looking for work at home programs.  So far all In have found is fraudulent garbage.  I am excellent with Office programs, can make a website if I have to and cannot type to save my life.  That should qualify me for a high paying jobs with someone.   Damm, if people can get away with putting thousands in a freezer illegally why cant I just get a decent paying job?
