A little mix of everything

There is a lot of skeptism when it comes to the unemployment rate. The government says it’s 8.1% (as of April 2012) and so do most in the media. Even the Bureau of Labor and Statistics, the agency responsible for calculating the official unemployment rate says it’s 8.1%. But they also say it’s 9.5% and even 14.5%. How can this be? Which is it? Why are there 3 different unemployment rates? Strange as it may be, there are actually six. The better question is, why are they choosing the 8.1% rate as opposed to the 9.5% or the 14.5%.

I think it has to do with politics. But more on that later. Let’s first see how the unemployment rates are calculated.

As mentioned above, the United States Bureau of Labor and Statistics has six different measurements for calculating the unemployment rate. They are called U-1, U-2, U-3 (official unemployment rate), U-4, U-5 and U-6. Each measurement tells a slightly different story, with U-1 being tightly focused on specific data, while U-6 is much more encompassing.

Iran’s intent to acquire nuclear technology has a lot of people riled up, but I fear they are overlooking a bigger threat. There are many revolutions taking place throughout the European and Arab nations. Italy, Greece, Spain, and France are all under extreme financial distress, probably on the verge of collapse in which new governments will form. Same holds true of Egypt, Libya, Tunisia, and possibly Syria. Russia seems to be slipping back into a dictatorship with the re-election of Vladamir Putin, and with all that’s happening in the world, are we really focused on what’s most important? Is Iran’s nuclear ambition really the #1 threat we should be concerned about?

What about the return of Communism and Fascism? Over the last 100 years, which has been more dangerous? Nuclear weapons, Communism or Fascism? Which should we be most worried about? Are we focused on the right threat? Are the old communist parties of Europe about to reemerge? Do people really know the difference between what they read in a book and what history has shown us when it comes to Communism and Fascism?

Remember SOPA and PIPA, the two legislative Bills out of Washington aimed at combating online piracy, both of which failed passage? Both were highly criticized by online giants such as Wikipedia and Google, so much so, that Wikipedia shutdown its website for a day out of protest. Well, the government is at it again, except this time they have sweetened the pot, and hundreds of companies are now on-board. Why? Because if CISPA passes, any company will be legally allowed to share your private data for profit and have complete immunity from prosecution. It gets even worse as you’ll see below.

The name of the bill is Cyber Intelligence and Sharing Protection Act (CISPA). The title alone should speak volumes about its intent; Cyber Intelligence (think government) Sharing (your information) Protection (protect those who share it) Act. There is a big difference between SOPA and CISPA. The SOPA bill dealt with online software piracy and the governmental power to shut those sites down. CISPA on the other hand deals with the sharing of proprietary and private data with the Federal Government. In my opinion, this is far worse.

The mainstream media let this one fall through the cracks, or simply missed it. In either case, it doesn’t shock me and is why I no longer trust the mainstream media. They’d much rather inject racial bias and race-bait a horrific tragedy in Florida than full-fill their duty of being the 4th branch of government; to expose wrongdoing therein and report to the People. This is why I do my own research and encourage you to do the same. Especially when it comes to the National Defense Resources Preparedness Executive Order.

On March 16th, 2012 President Obama issued an executive order that has three very alarming sections which grant the Federal Government communistic powers. If you think this is propaganda or hyperbole on my part, think again. Unlike the other sites reporting on this executive order, I will provide a link and show you the exact wording that is incredibly disturbing.

Not sure if you call it back luck, or Karma, but at the 1:19 mark the dark colored vehicle that moved between two other vehicles for shelter takes a direct hit by a big piece of debris launched by the incoming tornado.
