The People Have Spoken!

This is part of the entire lie I have been exposing.  There is a bigger, much larger Nemesis here, people.  Sure, we (a select few) see the immediate threat... some of us see it.  However... the larger, much more ominous threat comes from within the Federal Government itself.  I'm sure they know who I am, but I do not care... because I do not live in the nation I though I had if I have to worry about it.  Politicians running our government was bad enough, because of the inherent dishonesty that comes with that job description, but now we have unscrupulous CEO's from Fortune 500 Corporations running our nation, and they only have one Master: the Al mighty Dollar.

October 25, 2012 is going to be an very interesting day in the city of Oakland, California... stay tuned for more....

"-Measure S repeats San Francisco's sit-lie law, which has failed to improve business, public safety, or homeless services, according to an independent study commissioned by the city controller; you dismiss that study with a wave of the hand, yet the majority of Haight Street merchants reported that San Francisco's law had not improved the street.  While dismissing this independent analysis, the article cites one merchant who in fact served s a public face of the campaign for sit-lie in San Francisco.  His store was the pro-sit-lie campaign's kick-off site."

That says it all.  There's collusion!  There's this Good Ole Boy Network of One-Percent-types having a barbecue and you are not invited.  Unless, of course, you come by way of the decor, labor, or are voraciously consumed by those very Bastards who wish to "'get rid' of 'them.'"  On top of that, it doesn't even work!  That's right!  It fails to fix the problem.  Again, the Aristocracy does not want this ('problem') fixed because they are making tons of cash on the fact that it is crashing!  And "pro-sit-lie" is truth in advertising.  Because that's exactly what they're (DBA and the City) doing when they sit in their board room, crafting this awful nonsense.

Any time you want to find the motive (or answer) to something that is unjust... just "follow the money."

And his final bullet point:

"-Berkeley suffers a serious shortage of shelter beds, just 135 spots for more than 600 homeless people.  The situation is worse for homeless youth: Only 35 beds, all of which are full from when the youth shelter opens in November until its closure in April."

Again, the youth shelter (Y.E.A.H.) is no longer being funded by the City, so now these kids are on their own.  Again, this is syste matic, so the City can use it as an excuse to steal even more power from its' citizens, and will try and control the public space in the process... but to no avail.  This is not going to occur, because there are too many (legal) eyes on this topic.  But you can see these Bastards will never stop.  They've been at it for centuries... so why should they stop now?

$2.8 million dollars supposedly being spent on the homeless of Berkeley, California, has to be a lie.  Where is this money going?  Where, mayor What are we going to see when Measure U ('Sunshine Ordinance') passes?

Everything else they wrote was beautifully put, so I won't go over it, but you should, again.  It's a thing of beauty, how they show you the lies and slight-of-hand maneuvers these Administrative-type a**holes are trying to achieve. 

There are another six responses on the East Bay Express that I cannot get to (because this column is too long already), but you can.  You can check them out.  It's out, right now... so go and grab a copy.  And, if you can't find that copy, just check out their site: http://www.eastbayexpress.com/

And, vote HELL NO! on Measure S... send a message to those Criminal Fat Cats in Washington D.C. [that] The People (of the United States of America) have not relinquished power to a Corporate Oligarchy!
