Economic Crisis, The Amero, North American Union and the New World Order
We first took a look at the shape of things to come last year with the review of the “How the Banking System Works” series of movies on YouTube (it’s an excellent series, must-watch if you haven’t already). The most perspective-shifting piece of information from that series is two things: How organized the world-wide banking system is How [...]

Monday, October 6, 2008
The first time the $700 billion buyout bailout was voted on, it failed, and the Dow dropped 770 pts. The next time it was voted on, and passed, the Dow dropped.

Monday, August 25, 2008
We wrote about the Class Action lawsuit against Hewlett-Packard over printer-ink monopoly pricing and false “empty catridge” warnings that force customers to guy buy more ink long before the cartridge is really empty.

Tuesday, August 5, 2008
“Clear” is a fast-pass-esque air-travel system run by a 3rd party company that allows passengers to pay $100/year to pre-register all their humanly personal information in exchange for what amounts to a “fast pass through security” card seen on the left.

Friday, August 1, 2008
Grant Gochnauer sends in news that the Beijing Olympic Committee is putting the kibosh on any attendees bringing “professional camera equipment” into the games unless they have a Press pass to do so.

Tuesday, July 8, 2008
The Washington Times is reporting that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) expressed “great interest” in a “safety bracelet” that all air-travelers would be forced to wear if implemented. This information was from a promotional video (Link Dead, they have removed the movie after all the attention it got) over at the Lamperd Less Lethal website. The [...]
