The comments at the end of the article were a mixed bag. I think one even thought trump was doing a great job (not sure that person actually comprehended what they read). Clearly this situation has been in the making for years due to the military industry machine's desire for only the best toys....

William_Mary replies on Mar 24, 2020:

I have noticed an uptick in people believing Trump is doing a good job from those that use to bash him. They are one's that also tend to believe that this is a hoax of some kind and it's nothing to really worry about. They are totally discrediting the idea that this could become a widespread health concern, which they aren't practicing the given recommendations to isolate. When Robert Parry started writing negatively about Obama policies Consortium got a surge of republicans coming to the site. What you're seeing there are those who remain in the conditioned republican support system still engaging in tribal politics. Many of the commentators there really do get it though.

I don't think that Tweety is causing more infections due to his ineptness, but his greed and not wanting to spend any of this spoils of thefts on the people of our country. He wants to take his share of tax money to his own offshore bank account.

William_Mary replies on Mar 23, 2020:

As with everything, Trump is a symptom of our problems. The amount of sick is purely due to at least 5 decades of a war on the working class. In which our healthcare for profit left us vulnerable. We are being taught yet another lesson in this in a major way, unnecessary preventable death due to derelict of duty.

@TomMcGiverin We've only had 3 deaths so far. 3 is to many though :-( But we had our largest spike the past 2 days almost doubling our cases, we now have 247. 2 of the deaths coming the same day. !Stay well!

William_Mary replies on Mar 21, 2020:

As a rumor I can only project more rumors. If this becomes a reality I would imagine a sense of governance will follow. For now all I could possibly give you is to look towards the rest of the world. It could be limited to certain high outbreak areas to start, or the entire country for further prevention. As for Ohio, we are having problems with certain entities not following protocols set by the governor. Friday he warned the public to a harder crack down it this didn't stop. Our cases are beginning to climb higher/quicker each day with more deaths. People need to take this more seriously! Italy only has a population of approximately 61 million people. They just experienced 800 deaths in 24 hours.

I find it disturbingly suspicious though that the kill target is drastically aimed at the older population. If it was developed in a lab as it's suspected that means it was done so with purpose. The one article I posted last weekend suggested it may have been also modified to be more effective in other countries. I'm quite suspicious though and of mind to ask more questions.

William_Mary replies on Mar 16, 2020:

@silverotter11 did I mention conditioning? That would be what causes those looks. You might have heard the old urban legend? You can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink it. Well, that applies to information also. Even if you can manage to get one to read it, they often can't accept what they've read because it goes against what has been repetitively pumped into their mind. That's the goal of our main stream media. They all have the very same story almost to a tee and they repeat it constantly from one source to another. Offering only the information they need to use to develop the perception management. Often of half truths and or manufactured accusations. Especially when it comes to their perpetual warring and the economy. You only get a biased side that fits the agenda. I even seen some in the debate last night by both Biden and Sanders as they talked about Cuba, China, and Russia. Sanders again blew an opportunity to set the record straight on his comments about Cuba recently and fell lock step into the false narrative of authoritarian rhetoric as Biden falsely set the narrative tone of Sandinista's and the Cuban government claim of killing thousands. The same narrative played out about China. Russia was a close resemblance. When these countries fight back to protect their citizens and system it's authoritarian murder. When we do it for regime change over a democratically elected government, it's to spread democracy. Last night Sanders got tongue tied at moments, failed to provide crucial details, allowing Biden to win the narrative war that people of ignorance will remain steadfast in that conditioning. I didn't watch the entire event. But what I did see, when it got to that issue, Sanders seemed to be the slower brain last night and looked rather whipped.

William_Mary replies on Mar 15, 2020:

Of course others have their own descriptions of this ideology, conspiracy. To me and a number of political writers and commentators, the Deep State would be the ruling class (the worlds most wealthy) and the intelligence agencies. These would be the ultimate filthy rich we see as ruling from behind the curtain. The association of world intelligence agencies as I have been posting, mainly from the Mint News Press, working for these ultimate rich families orchestrate the world chaos we see going on to manage their agenda towards western dominance. As I cover here from about Russia, China, Latin America to the Middle East, presently, currently the main issues of today. Korea, Vietnam, historically, Iran continuously since the Carter administration. When I use the term establishment I'm talking about the politicians they own. That of course being both parties here in the US. And for all intensive present understanding would be all those in westernized countries. If you relate the resemblance of current issues around the globe, Europe, Australia, India, etc, you should recognize a corresponding resemblance of conditions and issues which seem to mirror our own. Each area mirroring our country with the acceptance of social protest in which we in the US seem to have little desire for. I'll argue that's because we have been well conditioned to compliance compared to our counterparts in those other countries. We have become overwhelmed by fake news where the results of these agendas has been forced on them via overwhelming them with the conditions these agendas have handed them. The perpetual warring is basically on their door steps in which they share the economic despair, but also millions in fleeing immigrants. Imagine if mass warring began in Latin America to the scale in the Middle East the past 18 years! The media would play hell to simply hide it as it does now for the Deep State and establishment behind silent warfare in sanctions and current small scale paramilitary nightly raids in countries we have managed to overthrow there and install puppet governments. In which right now we slowly get those being ran out by the gangs and growing economic disasters we've created. Both side use? A day when people like myself used that term were called conspiracy theorist for such statements, they now use against each other to create a facade knowing their game is slowly being exposed. Just as now the term fake news. They must use their corporate entities in the intelligence field of search engines to create algorithms to sway us from finding factual information. Take to mind, all these search engines and social media outlets now work with our government intelligence agencies around the world. Narrative has become widely used in MSM today for this reason ...

To her the gain is they lose their vote. In our primary you can only vote within the party you're registered in. Switching them to the democratic party or registering a new voter to the republican party against that voters wishes denies them that vote. If she had insight on the voters choice somehow she could have been working on denying a certain candidate a vote. Youth and or Latino going for Sanders for example. Discussions while picking out the paperwork. Simply ease dropping while voters were mingling. T-shirts. The current perception management right now being Trump beats Biden.

@silverotter11 just follow me dam mit :-) No, seriously, you personally already have it in your DNA of knowing the reality of what's going on I've learned! You're on top of the game! Even the best of us fall down the rabbit hole from time to time. What matters is when we catch a root in the ground that stinks and we grab it and use it to pull ourselves back out. There's so many out there that just keep going deeper though. I think I provide a good number of sites on the welcoming page to cover all the bases though. I just wish more people would use them. I try to get at least one article of the main sites I use on the post each weekend to draw people to those sites, in hopes they save them to return and learn more on their own. Another good way to test a fact checking site is to watch where a site or source you feel is predominately good and see where it is on the list and how it's rated. It it has any inclination of being poorly rated you can probably be sure the site has an agenda to sway you towards fake news. If the site has any of the MSM sources under good ratings, RUN, fast. If you have to do a search for a site you like, it probably isn't a good sign. Like Google or Wikipedia they tend to avoid advertising or promoting sites and journalist that are the best. You're almost sure to get the controlled narrative sites and information on the top of the list.

rogerbenham comments on Mar 8, 2020:

Thanks. I really enjoyed watching that. The third kind begs so many questions. Who does hiring? Who decides what to make/do? Who controls each section? But I really like the idea of employees being part owners.

William_Mary replies on Mar 8, 2020:

Some of the most successful companies are those which are employee owned or employee shared profited. Are they going to be as big as those who are controlling our society? No, probably not anytime soon. But that is not what the purpose initially was. If our society was drastically more like this we'd be looking at a better society and a safer planet. If we had a government with real concern of its citizens, it would have quickly realized the damage of outsourcing our manufacturing and began turning these places into employee owned operations. I don't see any reason to change hiring protocols. This isn't done by CEO's for large scale operations in most cases. With a more unified employee democracy I would imagine they would inject a unionized style person to participate in that procedure also. I don't really see much to change in the other areas you mention either, for the same reasons. For the most part all aspects of a company are ran by people within the same social structure with incomes closely related. The main concern would come with distribution of profits and the ability to change over to another product should that be necessary. In which would greatly benefit equal distribution from one area to another and to reduce transportation concerns keeping societies outside our own immediate areas from falling into disparity. The entire present process of feeding wealth hungry CEO's and stock holders that hold our society back from advancement must end!

William_Mary replies on Mar 8, 2020:

@rogerbenham your stock broker makes a commission on the stocks he or she persuades you to buy. They don't actually have your best interest in mind when they offer you a stock to put your money in. They're going to attempt to sell you what makes them the most, first. Whether that means you're more at risk of loosing money or not. Unless you're someone that actually understands the stock market, which a vast majority do NOT, and can work it to your best benefit, you're essentially betting at the casino from the office of a financial adviser or stock broker, possibly over your phone, while your bookie gives you manipulated numbers. They can offer you a sure way to make a little over time, which isn't going to benefit them much, or they can offer you something the market will reward them better over while you take a high risk of loosing. Older retirees have been making the news the past couple of years having been caught up in these scams. This is a large part of the reason pensions have gone the way of extinction. It's cheaper for companies to draw their employees into 401K's where they (employees) lose their money with each recession over the company's continence in paying out pension funds. Especially with the predatory nature of putting companies out of business now. It doesn't look good when a predatory company purposely ends a decades long successful company business via manipulated means and rips the employees pensions from them. It exposes the fraudulent nature of the destruction of a company as they move overseas rather than injecting money to help it survive. While only the CEO's and stock holders walk off with all the money while in bankruptcy.

William_Mary replies on Mar 8, 2020:

@rogerbenham well the 2008 crash tells us there are over 2 trillion $ in reasons. As you noted, no one went to jail over it. These people from banks, loan companies, and market handlers who purposely created a scheme they knew would eventually fail and be bailed out walked away with over 2 trillion of tax payer money when it was all said and done. Then moved a vast amount of that money off shores to avoid taxes in other illegal schemes. The Panama Papers are still to this day exposing some of the players in that. Today, under Trumps tax laws, those people were able to bring back that money from their off shore accounts at a much lower tax rate and buy back their stocks to once again begin manipulating the market again. In which we have been covering here as they build up another bubble. When the companies fall, as in 2008, they'll bundle them up again in buying the worthless pieces of shit they created and start the cycle all over again. After 2008 Obama made one of the benefactors his economic adviser. His bank walked off with 38 billion in the first round of the initial 780 billion of tax payer bailout money. When it was all said and done via back door agreements it was estimated some 2 trillion was printed up and handed out to these criminals. What little legal actions were done ended in fines to a relatively few amounting in mere millions compared to the billions they all walk away with. That's quite a profitable business to keep repeating, no? Currently Wells Fargo is under investigation, for the second time no less, for creating fake accounts using their customers identities to fraudulently make money. Our government did relatively nothing to them the first time, so they did it again. And from the reports I'm seeing nothing is going to be done again. Good business for Wells Fargo, no?

Yes , taxes and bailouts, yes, because our governments are compliant and owned by the ruling class, yes. It goes so much deeper. Money laundering of and for drug cartels. Which if you took out the 100's of billions in that alone it would be drastically harder for the market systems around the world to continue their pyramid system.

P.S. and for fuck sake use sources like mediabiasfactcheck.com to see what slant the news you are seeing or reading has. Nothing wrong with looking at ALL sides but willful ignorance has just about destroyed America.

William_Mary replies on Mar 8, 2020:

Unfortunately, every fact checker I've looked into is as fake as the fake news itself. If you do a search on the company and or owner of, it almost always leads to a think tank group or people with their own agenda. Sorry to inform you, but I'd find it wise to question media bias fact checker also. # 2 on this list. https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-02-20/exposing-9-fakest-fake-news-checkers His bio on Wikipedia offers no evidence towards having experience in judging news. He does appear to have a good gig as the president of The New School for all intentional purposes which seems legit. His discourse with zerohedge is quite telling though as far as reliability to the agenda of providing a reliable source to judging news. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_E._Van_Zandt

The political lessons of Sanders’ Super Tuesday defeat [wsws.

Donna_I comments on Mar 5, 2020:

He spent so much time getting the health care bill passed and it somehow managed to piss so many people off that he lost congress. His second four years were an exercise in futility with the Republicans (much like now!) unabashedly stonewalling everything!

William_Mary replies on Mar 7, 2020:

When you redistribute wealth for healthcare from the working class to provide for those where many refuse to work or to put forth an effort to work, you're going to piss a few people off. I was one of them. My employer dropped our insurance program that year drastically increasing my premiums by 400% Many of my co-workers couldn't afford it and went without healthcare. Hell, I couldn't afford it to be honest, it put a major strain on my life in all aspects. And drained what little I had for retirement. Yea, some people actually made out by now having healthcare, at the expense of others loosing it. What we were promised didn't come to any sense of fruition we were told. There's a hell of a better way out there and people are now awake to it. It took nearly 2 years for people to start believing and seeing what I was telling them of my situation. I was called every nasty name under the sun when I stated my case on social media during those 2 years. Some people, families had it worse than me. Many elderly paid a major price also! Quite frankly, anyone who stands on a stage and claims they want to work on ACA to make it better, should be shot in the head as soon as they finish that statement! Another redistribution for the healthcare companies should not be tolerated by any means! Dispose of them once and for all for all time!

I just heard Sanders say the race is now down to 2 people. Him and Biden. Did Gabbards drop out?

RoboGraham comments on Mar 7, 2020:

The race has come down to two contenders. Gabbard is still in but has just 1 delegate and no chance of victory. I hope she does make it onto the debate stage but I'm certain that the DNC will once again change the rules as the game is being played and up the number of delegates needed to qualify....

William_Mary replies on Mar 7, 2020:

@rogerbenham I was attempting to refer to this in another post, to a degree, without creating a stir. Via the women's liberation and 2 world wars, the injection of women into the work place on a large scale essentially eradicated the successful single working household providing an abundance of slaves. The ruling class used that against us with growing numbers over time.

William_Mary replies on Mar 2, 2020:

Unfortunately I'm prepared to be on the loosing side no matter which party wins. That's the difference between me and a vast majority of the US voters. I'm not voting to win, I'm voting for change. I am a member of the few in this country who isn't voting for who can win or beat Trump. I'm voting for who can change the system with help from like minded people. In which there are none available in DC today. The world hasn't ended with 3 + years of Trump and after the next 4 + it will still be here. Whether it's Trump or the next DC criminal. The question really is, is how much more worldwide murder, people of our own who fall through the cracks of our system, of those who remain in the conditioning of their state of criminality want to keep washing that blood and hard times off their conscience? The fact of the matter is they are as guilty for participating in their system as the establishment politicians. We've had 3+ years of exposure to the devastating truths of the reality of what our government really is. What 18 years of war in the middle east is really about, the false narratives to Syria, Russiagate and Ukraingate. What the DNC really is. Frankly, there is no democracy! What more do they want on their conscience? If they don't have a measure of conscientiousness to this then they are no better than those they keep voting for. You can no longer use a party, your party, to separate yourself from the crimes of nearly 5 decades that have been enduring this. And the past 3 + years have brought that fact out like a nuclear bomb. You're no longer allowed an excuse! You're either in the blast zone or delivering the blast with them now. Trump AND Clinton have really made it that simple for us.

We need to nuke our current living structure and develop our cities around our places of work. Place our schools and shopping within the same structured area. Almost eliminating any need for car use, spend our lunch time with our children, healthcare within a golf carts drive. Our entire society is outdated! Take it from someone who once drove OTR. Many of our cites in the US were not meant to have 18 wheelers in them! And yet without them society comes to a screeching halt. Keep the city limits to big time office and government aspects.

William_Mary replies on Feb 29, 2020:

@rogerbenham in respect to healthcare there's no need to tax as I understand it. Under a universal healthcare system we pay for it within the yearly tax system at a lower rate compared to us presently paying from our existing monthly payments to a company saving us hundreds a year. Ending subsidies to profitable corporations alone could pay for re instituting federal cuts to state and local issues. Our national government is currently attempting to abandon any sense of social construct to support society in regards to accommodate a changing social structure as technology and energy bring signs of change. They chose instead to cling on to a dying outdated system rather than to use the future to create jobs as the planet fails beneath us. They allow these corporations and the most wealthy to spend more money buying them off to keep a failing system afloat than it would take if they simply applied that to the issues we face. Hell, we don't even have election cycles any longer! These entities are spending billions from the end of one to the next preparing to undermine society to the amount we shouldn't even have issues! And then people are crazy enough to send their hard earn money to the fucking establishment politician of their choice on top of that!?! That's basically going out and buying a gun and handing it over to the home intruder and getting on your knees as you hand them the loaded gun. What's this tell you where we as a people are in politics? Most of us can't even put the pieces of this puzzle together to understand we are being totally screwed and helping to screw ourselves at the same time. It's insanity! All the money being spent to suppress us is more than it would cost for us all to have what we see as fair needs and income times over. If we all had a unison mind to relate that to our politicians and governance as a whole the game should be over! Key word----game. Why the game? Why can't we all just get rid of the game!?! Why don't the many who are loosing in the game unable to see this?

Lorajay comments on Feb 27, 2020:

If Sanders supporters act on this threat, they will be responsible for the re election of Trump. Russia prevailed in 2016 because they split the Democratic vote and discouraged others from voting. Yell at me all you want and call me names I will still hold them responsible.

William_Mary replies on Feb 29, 2020:

Russia? Who in Russia? While the narrative is driven towards making you think the Russian government interfered they've provided no proof of who in that government interfered. 12 Russian people from within a Internet click bait farm were indicted, not the Russian government. And when their lawyers from the DC area showed up at the hearing Mueller asked for a delay in the hearing in which he never advanced or addressed the case again. Other than making the same "accusation" without proof in his report. The entire DNC debacle has been proven to most likely be a manufactured false narrative by independent journalist who can't get their investigations into main stream media. But you'll trust a government and their media who have a vast history of betraying out trust?

What's wrong with Elizabeth Warren? The media has already erased her and nobody here has complained.

William_Mary replies on Feb 29, 2020:

Well if you were to observe her Clinton light like actions as many do, you might understand why those of us who recognize this and know of the background noise of her and Clinton's collaborations don't support her. Her cheap shot at Sanders in one debate, then the next she played it off as nothing happened. As did Sanders :-( That was clearly a Clinton advised move that failed miserably. Along with reported regular communications with Clinton and Clinton's promise to Warren to provide her with her donors in high places. In which Warren then made a reversal in accepting certain types of donations she previously denounced, also admitting it was the only means for her to survive in the campaign. This isn't Warren's first rodeo with Clinton either. Warren and Clinton go back a while from approximately when Warren was still at Harvard, an episode where Clinton essentially betrayed over Warren over a bankruptcy reform agreement. I'll post a video of her on the Bill Moyer show below. In the leading writing to the video it explains the interview as follows. {Bill Moyers discusses Hillary Clinton's dramatic shift in policy regarding Bankruptcy reform with Harvard Law Professor Elizabeth Warren in a 2004 interview. Listen to what Warren has to say about why she believes Clinton changed her views. } I will argue what this says and what she says in the video is what today Warren herself has become. This is what DC and really any sense of our political nature, local, state, and national, does to politicians. Even if they go into politics with a genuine sense to do righteous work for the people, the ruling class agenda always trumps their intentions. This has become the Warren strategy if you've followed her and politics properly. If you can't beat them, join them. And joining them means playing the same games as they play. Warren isn't in politics for you, she's in politics for herself. She lives in a power structure that she's come to depend and survive on. Her goal is to survive within it while the driven agenda of the ruling class controls how she does so. Obama made this so evident there shouldn't even be an argument to this anymore!!! But you have to be a serious player in this game as a citizen to be able to recognize the betrayal of our government today. You also have to tear yourself from the conditioning of the main stream media which is owned by the ruling class in which they manage the perceptions of the population still foolish enough to religiously follow them. Left or right. You have to understand that we are under a constant state of propaganda that engulfs us in a delusional reality! If you're not understanding what I'm attempting to tell you, you're not asking enough questions and not putting enough time in finding the real answers. ...

Socialism Without Anti-Imperialism: A Different Flavor of Tyranny

rogerbenham comments on Feb 25, 2020:

Well Sanders is the best choice that you are being given.

William_Mary replies on Feb 27, 2020:

He seems to be the best choice. All you have to do though is look at how he's going about it! As the post and comments here suggest, he's lip service. If Sanders was actually serious he would be doing 2 things. Exposing the establishment for what they really are. And strongly suggesting how he would need help as the president to get his policies through the floors of both congresses. Which Piece2YourPuzzle correctly observes above, it being a practiced manor for about 5 decades now to move this country to the right. Sanders will need a vast injection of like minded people to get anything done. He should also being explaining this and calling for his supporters to also look outside the party for help! His weakness is not rocking the boat enough. Which will drive those who are conditioned to the capitalist perception to vote for Trump. Sanders needs to do like Ross Perot did. Spend money on a half hour of prime time TV and fully expose the establishment history from approximately the Reagan era, also including a full explanation of how his policies can be paid for. And the rest of us could spread that on the internet also!

William_Mary replies on Feb 23, 2020:

I get the argument often when I mention this that the US Constitution is like some glorified book of the Bible. But when you look at where the founding fathers came from and the secret societies some of them belonged to, it just might give one reason to think they weren't running from but expanding the empire. That the ruling arm was making sure it was guarding its new resource. Which is why, as you mention, the seats in the senate were placed by state representatives to protect wealth and property until 1913. One of the very reasons, main reason, for guarding this new resource was the new abundance of lumber. Where Europe had drastically eradicated their lumber resources the new world provided them a means to keep their naval power. Democracy has always been at odds with wealth and power here for a reason. We just need to get people to read between the lines!
