Have you ever heard of the saying, “If you can't beat them, then join them.”?

There is a group that is well aware of the fact that America is a strong and powerful nation, and it would be impossible to defeat its military. That is a given. This group will not give up on their desires to defeat the so called “evil empire”, and the things they have are money, patience, and their own brand of righteousness.

Keep in mind, Achilles fell at his weakest point. Rome fell for many reasons, but only to its greatest weakness do we cite. All governments fail due to their greatest weaknesses. No matter how powerful the group or person; Hitler fell, Goliath fell, Big Brown fell (the “sure thing” horse), and we too will fail if we do not recognize our greatest weaknesses and fix them NOW.

This group sees our greatest weakness as the love for money, and the greed we have for obtaining it. They see the safe keepers of our country as the most vulnerable, not our military, but our leaders.

Whether it is a Mayor from DC, a Congressman from Louisiana, or a referee for the NBA, the group is well aware that Americans with power have a propensity towards greed, and will do anything for that love of money. By the way, if this sounds like “Bible talk”, believe me I am just speaking the reality here. If the the Bible predicted all of this, then so be it. I am not particularly a religious man, but maybe perhaps a little more spiritual.

Here is what they are doing as I see it. This group controls most of the world's oil price. This group realizes that when money is not tied to a gold standard, then something else just replaces that standard through the “eventuality” of trading. They inflate our currency thus gaining more money for them to buy our US companies. Do they plan on “owning” all of the US companies? No, not at all. “If you can't beat them, then join them.” is only the first half of their strategy. When our economy has weakened to the point of a severe depression, it is at that time they will sell everything, leave town, and build their own empire on their own soil. They will have divided America between the rich and the poor (no more middle class). What happens from there is any body's guess. But one thing is for sure, they will not stop until America is defeated. The only way they can defeat America (our military is too strong) is through the people.

The problem may run much deeper as you are well aware that this group strives hard to destroy our transportation infrastructure. It is through our politicians making laws in exchange for money and land overseas that is contributing to our demise. Remember our tax dollars paying for our highways? How can it be that a foreign company is now running these roads and charging a toll? Dirty politicians. And that is our greatest weakness in this country. How can it be that four Supreme Court Justices, the keepers of our Constitution, could not see that we have the right to bear arms?

When you walk down the street and see a shady looking person, perhaps a thug walking your way, you at least DO something, yes? Maybe you move over to the other walk. Maybe you head the other way. Maybe you prepare your defense. But why is it that when we see our own government behaving like street thugs some of us do absolutely nothing? I call these the “weak people”, and us “strong people” need to stand up and help them out. We need to write our thoughts. We need to utilize all of our rights under the Bill of Rights. We need to form a “neighborhood community” to protect us from these thugs. We need to find leaders who are on our side, the good side. Join a group. Look over other parties (not the Beer Bash Party next week), political parties. There is a strength in numbers. As a trucker, I belong to OOIDA. I am currently looking at the Libertarian party (not only for President, but in local elections)... just looking. I try to read World Net Daily, the BBC, and yes mainstream American news. My view can't be well rounded if I'm looking down a narrow tube (most of us watch a nightly news program, the same one all of the time).

As your eyes open, you will next ask, “What can I do to protect myself?” They have divided our nation from rich and poor, black and white, and American against American. You love America for its freedom and opportunity, not because Nancy Polosi is at the head of the ship, or George Bush for that matter. What to do, what to do...?

Everyone's situation is very different. People are losing jobs, while some are working. Some people are unaffected by high gas prices, while others are going hungry. I guess one thing to do is to join a community church, not just for religious reasons, but no matter what your situation is, there will be people there with your same problems, as well as people to help fix them.

(I must admit, I haven't taken my own advice on that one)

Secondly, you must stop the bleeding. If it's money that is leaking out, plug the leak. No new credit. There are only two things you can do to stop the “bleeding”. One is to make more money. Two is to spend less money. That is it. And if you are good on that, then stock up on food that stores well. Save more of your money as cash. Protect yourself from those that will steal from you, because our city resources are becoming too expensive and could be cut. Right now I am buying gold, but in the form of an “ETF”. “DBP” is the ETF I am buying. I don't have much, but a little bit will always be better than nothing.

Whether you like it or not, our country will evolve into a world standard government (one world government). Once there were cities, then states, then countries, and soon the world will be one. I don't like it either, but NOW is the time to decide WHO to give control to; the good guys? or the bad guys? We need to start working together on a World Rights Constitution, and I would be very happy if it was a copy of our American Constitution. I think the Internet could play a very big role in securing rights for ALL workers in the world. We need to DO something because the “thugs” are coming.

And who is this “group” that is coming? Is it the OPEC members? Is it the big Banks? How about the Federal Reserve? Islamic Terrorists? Dirty politicians? European Union leaders? Is it the Ultra rich? How about the local street thug? Maybe it's the guys writing articles just like this? Well, the answer is even more simple than that. All of those organizations have something very much in common. Be wary of the dishonest person. In ANY organization you will have good, and you will have bad. You know them. You feel them. Heck, you probably work with them or drink beer with them. Expose them in the light and they will run like cockroaches.

Let's turn on the lights, get these cockroaches out of here, and clean this place up. It's time America.
