War Is A Racket. A racket is best described, I believe, as something that is not what it seems to the majority of the people. Only a small "inside" group knows what it is about. It is conducted for the benefit of the very few, at the expense of the very many. Out of war a few people make huge fortunes.

The Truth is Out There

Rep. Alan Grayson Introduces the War Is Making You Poor Act

Tuesday, 25 May 2010

A little background/context on this. In 1939 only 10% of all American's were paying the voluntary income tax. By the end of World War Two, that number? 100%. It was called the "Victory Tax" during the war and was meant to raise funds to stop the Fascist threat from Germany and Japan. But did the tax end with the war? Not at all. Because America never ended the war. We have been in a permanent state of war since then. Draw your own conclusions about whether we'd even have an income tax system if we weren't constantly at war in one part of the world or another.

Mother f*&%ing defense contractors. They are the source of this evil, or at least the blood that pumps through the veins of this undead zombie called "defending America."

Henry Giroux takes a scalpel to American socio-political reality and slices it up for the rotting, maggot-ridden meat that it is:


 

"Killing in the name of..."

Thursday, 08 April 2010

For a few weeks now I've been working on an essay about the military industrial complex and about how it utterly transformed American society after WW2. Its a tough nut to crack, because one wants to provide comprehensive depth, which is often beyond anyone's scope, given the level of atrocity and insanity that exists in the world's largest war machine:

The Great Illusion of Time and Space

Sunday, 11 January 2009

I chose the name Atomic so long ago because of all things mysterious in this life, the new knowledge of the quantum world ranked supreme. For perhaps nothing in the physical world is as bizarre and without quantification as the sub-atomic realm.

Particles become waves or solids depending on the point of the observer, time and space become meaningless as sister particles behave simultaneously across vast distance... this is the realm of the truly strange and yet, its supposed to be what WE'RE all made of, right? How can we and everything else seem so solid when the smallest realms are just made of fuzzy possibilities?

if you haven't read anything about it and feel overwhelmed at where to start, What the Bleep? is a decent documentary that can at least visually explain whats going on in the sub-atomic realm. The film spins off into inter-personal, new-age drift that won't appeal to some, but its important that they tried.

Because the gap between what we know about the structure of atomic reality (that the whole universe is one giant energy field) and the way we behave (treating every one and thing as external and separate) is so large that we're in need of a major consciousness shift that can incorporate what science has shown us and can finally put an end to all of the petty divisions that are ruining this planet.

There may already BE a philosophy that balances out these new scientific perceptions - the world's religions. For haven't they been telling us all along that we're one and should treat each other as ourselves? True, but something more is needed... a way to incorporate the state of our social world into the explanation. Perhaps even a conspiracy view of history (of which I am a believer)?

David Icke does that better than anyone I've seen, so here's his video. Hope you have enjoyed the setup:
