Figures don\'t lie but liars sure can figure. R should be more carefull with the facts. When one considers all the facts reefer madness should be exported to enemy countries. DW - Kruk Ed Strait Thu, 16 Aug 2007 22:17:13 +0100 http://lakeconews.com/content/view/1473/925/#comment-897 on Blue Wolf\'s article "News for profit", if I can bend the rules a little and post these figures here: Yearly deaths from alcoholism: 110,000 Number of yearly sexual assaults among college students due to use of alcohol: 70,000 Yearly injuries among college students due to alcohol use: 500,000 Yearly deaths among college students due to alcohol: 1,400 Yearly deaths from the abuse of tobacco: 430,000 Yearly deaths from preventable medical errors in hospitals: 98,000 Yearly deaths from RX drugs: 100,000 Yearly deaths from aspirin/pain killers: 7,600 Yearly deaths from contaminated foods: 9,000 Deaths from the 2003 Iraq war, mostly civilians: 131,715 Side effects from all legal medications: enough to fill thousands of pages and kill or injure in innumerable ways Yearly deaths from marijuana use: 1.1 By the way I don\'t use drugs, legal or illegal, smoke or drink, but don\'t the facts speak for themselves?...so what is the big "problem" with marijuana, except that its illegality feeds the corporate prison industry and allows the government to eliminate the voting rights of countless individuals, many of whom are probably too liberal for the government\'s taste. It is however possible, on the subject of psychosis, that listening to Bush or Cheney\'s speeches could induce some form of mental illness or impairement, I would not advise to drive under their influence, or under the influence of the FOX channel for that matter. - Raphael Thu, 16 Aug 2007 22:09:10 +0100 http://lakeconews.com/content/view/1473/925/#comment-899 So what, were they shot by some federal agent or being ripped off by some other opportunist because the law makes it a high value plant? Liquor and cigarettes... well over half a million by themselves. Sure is interesting food for paradigm shifting thought. - John Thu, 16 Aug 2007 15:02:59 +0100 http://lakeconews.com/content/view/1473/925/#comment-891 ..no devil says Raphael....The devil is pleased. He has more power over those who don\'t believe in him and his ways. God isn\'t pleased. He doesn\'t like to see lost sheep and He doesn\'t believe in atheists. DW - Kruk Ed Strait Wed, 15 Aug 2007 12:08:00 +0100 http://lakeconews.com/content/view/1473/925/#comment-886 ..peace and love comes from within. Wise men say adultery, murder, hate, stealing, idolatry, and every evil act comes from within. Peace and love come from God. Freedom comes from self dicipline which also comes from God. Rafael is foolish. He understands life backwards and upside down. He hopes to be the blind leading the blind. He\'s a slave to sin and doesn\'t even know. DW - Kruk Ed Strait Tue, 14 Aug 2007 12:56:15 +0100 http://lakeconews.com/content/view/1473/925/#comment-881 Your right DW, \"...Bush can\'t stop the corruption in government.\" He IS the corruption in government. Add another to the tally of the questions DW can\'t/won\'t answer. - Donna Christopher Mon, 13 Aug 2007 21:22:57 +0100 http://lakeconews.com/content/view/1473/925/#comment-880 ..no, Donna. One doesn\'t follow the sheep. It\'s the Sheperd. Sheep following sheep all end up in the ditch or maybe even over the cliff. Sheep who follow the Sheperd graze beside the still waters and travel through the valey of the shadow of death and fear no evil. And, no, Bush can\'t stop corruption in government. If he could there would be no need for the Second Coming. Bush can\'t appear and disappear. Nor can he travel at the speed of light;like the Kings, and Judges in the new government of the Sheperd. DW - Kruk Ed Strait Mon, 13 Aug 2007 20:59:42 +0100 http://lakeconews.com/content/view/1473/925/#comment-878 DW who the heck is Monto? Have you morphed Raphael into 2 people? Is psychosis contagious and can you catch it from a blog? Your arguments about just follow the sheep and there will be \"peace in a war torn world\" - our biggest warmonger is Bush. Yeah, that born again, old Testament spouting southern end of a northbound horse. Shouldn\'t he have been able to stop the \"corruption of government\" instead of amplifying it greatly? Course there is that aspect that he & his cronies greatly profited from this little side trip to Iraq. Oh yeah, and signing off on torture. If that makes for a man of God, I\'ll pass. I\'ll regret this but do tell Darryl - is Bush heaven bound material? He spouts the righteous words but the actions seem to head in a totally different direction. There is a lot of that going \'round, even on the local level. Do tell DW, how does your God sort\'em out. - Donna Christopher Mon, 13 Aug 2007 19:22:14 +0100 http://lakeconews.com/content/view/1473/925/#comment-877 ..farm animals? Great! We have at least a few (Monto, Donna, Rafael) who\'ve read the first half of Animal Farm. Amazing! They\'ve discovered problems with human governments! They\'d do better to read the rest of Orwell\'s book. It gets worse. Every time a new government, preaching of course, (liberty, equality, fraternity)overthrows a bad government, pigs find a way to take over. The new government is worse than the old. After finishing their Animal Farm books, Monto, Donna, and Rafael, would do well to read Mathew, Mark, Luke, and John. They\'ll find some really good news. They\'ll read about a new government that even Orwell didn\'t know about. A new Christmas King will keep His campaign promises (unlike republicans and democrats) and bring peace to a war torn world. He\'ll put an end to the endless cycle of revolution and corruption of government that Orwell knew so much about. DW - Kruk Ed Strait Mon, 13 Aug 2007 12:33:22 +0100 http://lakeconews.com/content/view/1473/925/#comment-875 is that the elite is in it together: they cooperate, share information and power in order to maintain and expend their control of the governments of the world and of the world resources...The idea of Central Banking is a very marxist idea (and espoused by Marx), as are all concepts of highly centralized power, but the elite calls it capitalist because it serves them, while they call universal health care a \"socialist\" idea, because it could cut their profits, and most Americans have been trained, like puppies, to react instantly and without thinking when either of these words are used (kind of like \"God\" and the \"devil\"). So the elite and its monopolies are in a practical sense very \"collectivist\"... we, the little people, are the only \"rugged individualists\", the poor slobs who fend for themselves and who are made to live by the law of the jungle, of the survival of the rich and powerful! There are plenty of exemples of \"rugged individualism\" in the US, many of them are women and children, they live in the streets and are called homeless... - Raphael Mon, 13 Aug 2007 01:56:19 +0100 http://lakeconews.com/content/view/1473/925/#comment-874 can be depressing, and lies and myths much more enticing, which is why we are so eager for them, we crave these lies in order to function. This is how we willingly give up our power. Thanks for the comments Donna, I hate bringing bad news, but how can we hope to be free if we keep denying the existence of our invisible prisons and mental chains? \"We have limitless resources and the people yield themselves with perfect docility to our molding hands...\" From the objective of the Rockefeller \"philanthropies\" as stated by him and Gates in Occasional letter No.1 of the Rockefeller\'s General Education Board. \"A general state education is a mere contrivance for molding people to be exactly like one another; and as the mold in which it casts them is that which pleases the predominant power in the government-whether this be a monarch, a priesthood, an aristocracy, or the majority of the existing generation-in proportion as it is efficient and successful, it establishes a despotism over the mind, leading by natural tendency to one over the body.\" John Stuart Mill \"The bold effort the present bank has made to control the government, the distress it has wantonly produced..., are but premonitions of the fate that awaits the American people should they be deluded into the perpetuation of this institution (The Bank of the United States), or the establishment of another like it...\" Andrew Jackson, DEcember 2, 1834 \"As early as ancient Babylon or India, Central Banking, the art of monopolizing the issuance of money, had been developed as a perfect method for looting the general public. Even today many bankers copy the traditions of the early exploitative priesthoods and design their banks to resemble temples! Defenses of Central Banking are simply part of the deception that lies at the heart of all power elites.\" The occult technology of power \"There is no protetarian, not even a Communist movement, that has not operated in the interests of money, in the direction indicated by money, and for the time being permitted by money-and that without the idealists among its leaders having the slighest suspicion of the fact.\" Oswald Spengler \"The Right has such a fear of the Left\'s dream of democracic collectivism and the Left such a hatred for what it sees as the Right\'s elitist, rugged individualism that there is little danger that they will ever join forces to overturn our government-backed monopolies even though we violate the ideals of both left and right.\" The occult technology of power - Raphael Sun, 12 Aug 2007 20:37:17 +0100 http://lakeconews.com/content/view/1473/925/#comment-871 required reading in every civics or government class taught. And those classes should start in Middle School at the latest. And the civics/government classes should co-incide with the timing of what is being taught in history. Oh wait, then the masses would be informed and potentially dangerous. I have felt for a very long time that it seemed democracy and capitalism are mutually exclusive - we\'re either in this thing together or it is every person for themselves. Bush answered that question after Katrina - we are on our own. He sure has made a good marionette for concentrated wealth. Thanks RM for putting into words what I have pondered and speculated over for quite some time. :cry: - Donna Christopher Sun, 12 Aug 2007 10:54:47 +0100
