U.S. top focus is global government, not U.S. well being.

 GLOBAL MINIMUM TAX, ONE MORE STEP TO GLOBAL GOVERNMENT

FIRST PERSUASION, THEN PUNISHMENT


The effort to impose a minimum world tax rate is the first priority of Janet Yellen, U.S. secretary of treasury. The effort is for all nations to impose a minimum tax rate of 15% on international corporations and to tax companies that operate digitally. It is just another step in moving to a global government system. It will start as persuasion to adopt these rules, then when implemented, to punish those that do not cooperate, first economically then militarily

Individual countries have many different incentives to attract business to operate in their countries. Many developing countries often entice new investment with lowered ot delayed tax rates. For some it is an important lever to compensate for other less lucrative situations in their country. These plans all want to insure that high tax countries do not have to compete with less advantaged countries. It is just another form of control by the U.S. and western countries. Like state rights at home, the freedom to set tax rates is an important freedom that allows for competition, now a bad idea in global government.

Coupled with environmental regulation and pressure to delay industrialization in many developing countries it is a way to insure that other countries do not become more competitive to the countries with high taxes and high regulation. Rather than compete with countries, it is just another attempt to preserve the control over these other countries.

Sadly, the U.S. government is willing to spend tens of Billions of dollars to mettle in the internal affairs of other nations but is unwilling to control its own borders or deal with the rise in drug addiction, homelessness and a lawless and chaotic situation in its cities. 

It is clear that the priority of this government, often by both parties, is world government and control and not the well being of the United States citizens.

It is proved by its escalating unrestrained debt burden, that is near catastrophe, not to improve the lives of Americans but to control the world.

Is technology making many weapons obsolete?

 ARE TANKS AND SURFACE SHIPS BECOMING EASY TARGETS?

COORDINATED TARGETING IS DEADLY



The changing battlefield in Ukraine is a glimpse of the future of war. We see that armored vehicles are easily identified and disabled by the use of drones and and hand held weapons. We see that ariel surveillance can be used to give very accurate coordinates and be eliminated by long range artillery in minutes. It is reported that many Ukrainians have not had visual contact with a Russian. Many have been killed or wounded with weapons fired from miles away. 

While human manpower will always be important on the battlefield and armored weapons are very valuable in certain situations, coordinated targeting by satellite and drones coupled with long range weapons is becoming clear as a game changer on the battlefield.

So far we have seen primarily a ground war in Ukraine, but it appears there will soon be a coordinated offense from the Russian military. It appears they are massing troops and armour for a major offensive in  northern Ukraine. This will be a coordinated air, ground campaign that will be another view as to how modern warfare is evolving.

It is being reported that new drones are coming onto the scene that will be able to be launched in mass and communicate with each other and direct each other to observed targets. The ability to manufacture large numbers of these weapons may be crucial in the near future. Disabled tanks and injured soldiers are just as effective as destroyed tanks and dead soldiers.

The introduction of hyper-sonic missiles have possibly put large slow surface ships in peril. Some believe that surface ships will be easy targets for these missiles. We will likely find out in the near future. 

The other use of technology has been the ability to block ot distort communication with these modern weapons. Many sophisticated guided bombs and missiles can now be disabled or misdirected by electronic warfare.

We can assume that this Ukraine conflict has been an opportunity for defense departments and manufacturers to test and improve weapons. It will allow them to use real life and death conflicts to advertise the effectiveness of their weapons. I expect the world defense apparatus is watching closely and deciding what they want and don't want in the future.

U.S. foreign policy makers wanted enemies, now they have them.

 TRASH TALK FOR POLITICAL PURPOSES CAN LEAD TO DISASTER

MAY BE TOO LATE TO REVERSE WHAT HAS BEEN CREATED



It is no secret that creating enemies has its political advantages. Politician realize that fear and greed are the two most effective emotions to motivate voters. It may be effective when the enemies are Saddam Hussein and Muammar Kaddafi, the risk is minimum and creates public support for war and entices the military industries to give their support and donations. War is always lucrative for select constituents and war time presidents are usually rewarded with re-election.

We have witnessed over 20 years of the demonization of everything Russian. The Russians were labeled as responsible for everything that could be blamed on them. They were the evil ones and needed to be controlled and suppressed. They went as far to actually believing that a war with Russia with a eastern European proxy would cause the decline of Russia and would be a quick positive event for the U.S. and its allies. It was again a colossal misjudgment that may actually lead to WW3 or the destruction of Ukraine and the last hurrah of NATO. It may also trigger the economic decline of the collective west and the divide between the west and Russia will likely last for decades. Remember, up until this crisis, Russia had a small military, a defense budget estimated to be less than $70 billion, compared to our budget of $880. billion. Does anyone ever ask where did all the money go, that Russia is able to out produce the collective west in munitions? Now, Russia is preparing and readying for an all out war with NATO, a war that NATO is not prepared to fight.

Then there is China, a fast growing economy, created by the greed of the west to buy cheap products and sell them with huge profits to the domestic population. China engaged in semi-capitalist free enterprise to become the manufacturing center of the world. All this, while the west allowed their basic industries to decline in favor of huge profits. Companies were further enticed by unfavorable regulations, taxes and a uncooperative work force. It became much easier and less risky to produce in China.

Then it finally dawned on U.S. politicians that China was going to surpass the United States in economic growth and become a very wealthy country with the ability to challenge the U.S. economically and politically. While China may have had a military budget of $200 billion compared to the U.S. budget of $880. billion. They were not a military threat to anyone. They were primarily interested in doing more business by making deals to insure materials and expanding markets. They were focused on bringing the rest of their 1 Trillion population into a modern lifestyle.

So It became the policy of the U.S. policy makers that they believed they could intimidate China by demonizing them and threatening them with sanctions and economic hardship and even military threats. It is another grave miscalculation that it seems they may want to walk back, but it may already be too late.

We have seen U.S. generals predict we will be at war with China by 2025. We have been in the process of leasing and gaining access to bases all over the pacific. The excuse is we are readying to protect the shipping lanes. Shipping lanes carrying primarily Chinese goods to the U.S.?  Did they really believe that they could intimidate China, a country with a history and long memory of their dealings with European and western powers.

Now they are shocked when they hear that the Chinese president is telling his country to prepare for war. To put the Chinese industrial behemoth on a war footing and begin producing weapons instead of consumer goods. A production war that the U.S. and the west cannot compete with, as we are now beginning to realize.

We are witnessing a series of delusional and disastrous decisions based on Hubris and ignorance. No diplomacy, no understanding of the history of their competitors and a gross miscalculation of the ability of these competitors to respond to their provocations. It is doubtful that this foreign policy disaster can be reversed. We are about to see changes in the world not seen since WW2.

Coordinated attack begins on RFK JR.

 CHALLENGE THE RULING CLASS AND THEY WILL CRUSH YOU

ANTI-SEMITISM IS OFTEN FIRST TACTIC



Every mainstream media has coordinated on charges of anti-Semitism against presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr.. We can expect it is likely just the beginning of the pattern we have seen by any candidate or individual who challenges the existing power structure.

Kennedy has made many accusations against the CIA and the war policy of the present administration and the state department and others who advocate for perpetual war.

He has questioned the safety of giving multiple vaccinations to infants. He has questioned the handling of the Covid-19 response and the pressure for multiple shots of what is purported to be a vaccine, but by any scientific definition, is not.

Anyone who questions the authorized position on anything is quick to be demonized or worse in the present political climate.

What Kennedy has been accused of is a bi-product of a discussion about the possibility of bio-enginerring disease that can be fashioned to attack certain people based on genetic profiles. Does anyone doubt that this possible? It is possible. Did he say that covid was manufactured by Jews to spare jews, he did not.

Now, they are accusing the whole family of being anti-semitic going back to his grandfather. What evidence is there that JFK or anyone else was anti-semitic? His grandfather may have made questionable remarks, but he has been dead for over 50 years.

Today, if anyone running for office does not submit to adopting the perpetual war policy they will be viciously attacked. It is a recurring pattern and the coordination is remarkable. Some are claiming that that all mainstem news is either originating from or vetted in Langley, Virginia.  We will see,  Joe Manchin is exploring running for president. If he should adopt any policy not authorized we can expect to see he to will be an anti-Semite, a racist or whatever they should hope to destroy him.

Most of the Republican candidates have all submitted to the authorized policy and it seems their polling numbers indicate that many voters have decided it is not the policy they want to vote for. I fear the will of the voters is the last indication of who will be the next president.

Is drug use prevalent in the Biden administration?

 MARIJUANA, COCAINE, NOW MAGIC MUSHROOMS

ARE DECISIONS BEING MADE WHILE UNDER THE INFLUENCE?



It has been reported that Secretary of the Treasury, Janet Yellen, partook of Psychedelic mushrooms while on official business to China. Yellen, the grandmotherly cabinet member, I suppose a left over from the 60's, often seems a little detached, one must wonder is the her only experience or is this administration's members often under the influence. 

Recently a bag of cocaine was found in a secure area of the White House, It has been argued that this could have been dropped by anyone passing through the white House. Past administration people have squashed that idea, by stating that the area in question is only accessed by cabinet members, the President and Vice-President, speaking of the Vice-President, she often seems to be under the influence, just listen to her. 

It has also been reported that marijuana was found in the White House at an earlier time. One has to wonder what is going on in the White House and what is going on among the present leadership.

Many question Biden's fumbling as old age, but then again sometimes he seems pretty lucid. 

Are the problems of Senator Federman really the effects of stroke? 

These people are making life and death decisions for millions of people, they are spending Trillions of dollars and negotiating with very intense and focused leaders like Putin and Xi. I would expect if these people are partaking of any drugs our adversaries know it. 

Every large company in America requires drug testing for employment and is often required to take random unannounced testing. Why are government employees exempt.Why was there not testing of everyone who was in the White House when drugs were found. Because, I suspect they all knew who misplaced these drugs or drugs are just that prevalent that no one cares. This is just another indication of the two tiered system of the regular people and the elite.

If these reports about Yellen are true, why is she still on duty, she should have been fired immediately, but of course, she does as she it told and can such a compliant replacement be found.

I don't understand why there is no random drug testing of all elected officials and appointees. Is it just more, "rules for thee but not for me".

Biden activates reserves for Ukraine.

 FIRST TRAUNCH OF RESERVIST TO BE SENT TO EUROPE

WE HAVE SEEN THIS BEFORE



Yesterday Joe Biden announced the activation of select reserve units to be used to fortify the Ukraine mission, called "Atlantic Resolve". This activation is limited to a maximum of 3000 as per law concerning activation of reservists without a declaration of war. This means 3000 at a time and this may be just the first of a series of activations.

The reserves were originally designed to be used in times of war, but that has evolved into a way of having fewer active military and activating reserves by executive order. Over half of the troops in Iraq were reservists, over 218,000 reservists were called up during that conflict and over 400,000 in the last 20 years.

A maximum of 3000 is allowed in time of emergency without a declaration of war. We can expect that this is just first of more to follow, especially with the inability to find new recruits. It will be interesting if there will be push-back by not only those called up, but by congress which was in the process of limiting these call-ups without being at war.

Most Americans are oblivious as to the cost born by reservists who are called to active duty. They are separated from their families, they often lose their homes by not being able to pay their mortgages. Many families end in divorce. The reserves were there for a serious threat to national security, not a political statement by the war enthusiasts who will be watching from their safe and secure homes.

From Viet-Nam on this has been been the pattern of escalation, first advisers, which we already have, then intelligence and targeting personnel, which we already have, then limited troops on the ground, which we likely already have manning sophisticated equipment. Then a steady increase in troops being sent to foreign wars for mostly political and economic purposes. Never having a plan on how to deescalate or get out. 

We can expect that this will now create a reserve crisis as more and more will choose not to be a member of the reserve force. We already see an inability to enlist new people into the service, mostly due to social issues engaged in by the military. This will soon lead to new debate, will it be time to reinstate the draft? If the draft returns, you will see a whole new view of foreign political wars. With a volunteer military those issues are often dismissed as not concerning the majority of the population. That time may be coming to an end.

NATO, no way out, Longer range weapons=smaller Ukraine.

 NATO MEETING REVEALS, NO PLAN FOR UKRAINE EXIT

EASY TO PRODUCE WAR, NOT SO EASY TO END



The Ukraine crisis is now clearly following the pattern of post WW2 conflicts, Viet-Nam, Iraq, Afghanistan and numerous other conflicts that are entered into with no idea what the result will be. No objective idea how to declare victory, no plan on how to exit or a plan B. Just get into these conflicts then keep escalating with no re-evaluation or conscious plan on how to end the conflict.

Of course, we hear that Putin and Russia must end this crisis, Russia must give up the areas now considered part of Russia.  Russia must submit to NATO missiles on their border. A delusional policy that is finally becoming more evident by the day. 

While many want to believe the narrative that Russia is evil, that this is an unprovoked attack by an aggressor nation. The reality is that this is exactly what the genius's in the U.S. state department wanted. The plan was to weaken Russia, to hope for regime change and to destroy the viability of Russia. So far their plan was not well thought out and was based on delusional analysis as to the ability of Russia to deal with this threat. Any objective analysis knew that NATO expansion to their border was a recipe for war and even WW3. That analysis has not changed nor will it.

So, obviously there was not a plan B. Ukraine is being destroyed, Europe is likely to enter into a deep recession, we will see social unrest in Europe and the accompanying increase in authoritarian rule. The world is being forced into a duel economic reality that will cripple the developed countries to continue in their Social Democratic experiment. All because of elites in the U.S. government, who believed they could rule the world.

Their latest escalation, without any explanation of how this will produce positive results, is to furnish Ukraine with long range weapons. Weapons maybe that can reach Moscow. If this actually happens, does anyone ask, what is the capability of Moscow to literally flatten Kiev. Of course such a response by Russia would be considered a propaganda victory and reinforce their narrative of an evil Russia. Never a thought about the people of Ukraine or the likelihood of global catastrophe. The only thought is to cover their stupidity in desiring this conflict in the first place.

It is all about their inability to admit failure and defeat, while others go on dying to enforce their elitist view of the world. It is especially easy when others are dying.

So their latest desperate attempt to preserve their image will result in a smaller Ukraine at best, WW3 at worst. The pressure on Putin inside Russia, to up the anti and roll over Ukraine, may become overwhelming. It will not result in his overthrow, but may be the end of Kiev and the present government. Only our delusional analysts, do not believe that Russia has this capability and has been exercising restraint up to now. But then again, it is only Ukrainians and Russians that are dying, all collateral damage in their big plan.
