THE LOOTING
OF AMERICA:
BARACK
OBAMA AND HIS CRONY BANKSTERS set themselves on America’s pensions next!
http://mexicanoccupation.blogspot.com/2015/04/obamanomics-assault-on-american-middle.html
The new aristocrats, like the lords of old, are not bound by the laws that apply to the lower orders. Voluminous reports have been issued by Congress and government panels documenting systematic fraud and law breaking carried out by the biggest banks both before and after the Wall Street crash of 2008.
Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America and every other major US
bank have been implicated in a web of scandals, including the sale of toxic
mortgage securities on false pretenses, the rigging of international interest
rates and global foreign exchange markets, the laundering of Mexican drug
money, accounting fraud and lying to bank regulators, illegally foreclosing on
the homes of delinquent borrowers, credit card fraud, illegal debt-collection
practices, rigging of energy markets, and complicity in the Bernie Madoff Ponzi
scheme.
NO PRESIDENT IN HISTORY SUCKED IN
MORE BRIBES FROM CRIMINAL BANKSTERS THAN BARACK OBAMA!
This was not because of
difficulties in securing indictments or convictions. On the contrary, Attorney
General Eric Holder told a Senate committee in March of 2013 that the Obama
administration chose not to prosecute the big banks or their CEOs because to do
so might “have a negative impact on the national economy.”
The Boeing crashes and the criminalization of American capitalism
31 October 2019
“There are certain men in the world who rather see everybody hung before they'll take blame.” ― Arthur Miller’s “All My Sons”
When American playwright Arthur Miller wrote those words in 1947, he was penning a work based on the conspiracy between the Wright Aeronautical Corporation and military and civilian inspectors to approve defective airplane engines for use in World War II. The collusion occurred between 1941 and 1943 and was brought before then-Senator Harry Truman’s investigative committee after workers exposed the scheme. A number of executives went to prison.
In Miller’s play, the chief culprit, Joe Keller, offloads the blame onto a subordinate and later finds out that 21 pilots died as a result of his actions, including one of his sons. Keller commits suicide out of shame and regret.
Boeing CEO Dennis Muilenburg showed no such human emotions when he sat before the Senate Commerce Committee on Tuesday and the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee on Wednesday. Knowing he had nothing to fear from the Democratic and Republican politicians deferentially lobbing questions at him, he stonewalled and evaded, defending his decision to ignore and conceal multiple warnings from engineers and pilots and rush the deadly Boeing 737 Max 8 into service in 2017.
He even defended the “delegation” of oversight by federal regulators to Boeing itself and called for a further “updating,” i.e., gutting, of regulations.
Within two years of the launch of the new plane, two 737 Max 8 planes had crashed as a result of the malfunction of an automatic anti-stall mechanism called the Maneuvering Characteristics Augmentation System (MCAS), whose very existence had been concealed from pilots. A total of 346 men, women and children were killed.
At this week’s hearings, Muilenburg acknowledged that he knew of the red flags, yet not a single congressman or senator suggested that he, or his coconspirators in the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), should be criminally prosecuted. Nor did the corporate media.
The first disaster occurred just over a year ago when Lion Air Flight 610 plunged into the sea outside of Jakarta, Indonesia, killing 189 people. The second came five months later, when Ethiopian Airlines Flight 302 nosedived into the ground near Addis Ababa, extinguishing the lives of another 157 human beings.
At Wednesday’s hearing, Muilenburg did not even acknowledge the presence of family members of the deceased who stood behind him holding up photos of their lost spouses, children, parents and siblings. He turned around to face them only after a member of the group demanded that he “look at people when you say you’re sorry.”
The Max 8 crashes were not simply accidents, they were crimes. They were the outcome of the criminalization of the American corporate ruling class.
Investigations by both Indonesian and Ethiopian flight safety officials have concluded that both Boeing and the FAA were culpable in the crashes.
By now, facts have emerged, some of which were raised at the hearings, which demonstrate incontrovertibly that Boeing knowingly put into service an aircraft that was not safe. These include:
- Emails from pilots and engineers warning of the dangers, including one from Mark Forkner, Boeing’s chief technical pilot, noting that MCAS was out of control, “egregious” and “running rampant” during a test run on a flight simulator.
- An email to Muilenburg from a senior manager recommending that the entire Max 8 program be shut down because standard safety protocols were being ignored in the race to launch the plane before Boeing’s European-based rival Airbus captured a slice of its market share. He wrote, “All my internal warning bells are going off and for the first time in my life I am hesitant about putting my family on a Boeing airplane.”
- A 2016 warning to Congress from the Professional Aviation Safety Specialists union, which represents workers at the FAA, that deregulation had reached a point where regulators would be able to intervene in problems with an airplane only “after an accident has happened and people are killed.”
- The removal of any mention of MCAS from flight training manuals and the reduction of pilot training on the new aircraft to a one-hour video on an iPad.
- Boeing’s expansion of the power and scope of MCAS shortly before the Max 8’s launch without any notification to the FAA, other regulatory agencies, pilots or airlines.
- Boeing’s decision to attach a new and bigger engine to a five-decade old airframe, rather than redesign the airplane, in order to cut costs, reduce labor, rush production and speed up certification. The resulting tendency of the Max 8 to stall, which MCAS was intended to correct, rendered the new plane “fatally flawed,” according to former pilot and aviation safety expert Chesley “Sully” Sullenberger.
- The failure of Boeing and the FAA to ground the 737 Max 8 after the October 2018 Lion Air crash, even though Boeing had been aware of problems with MCAS before the disaster. Even after the crash of Ethiopian Airlines Flight 302 five months later, Boeing and the FAA refused to ground the plane until every other authority in the world had done so.
All of these crimes of commission or omission flow from Boeing’s subordination of all considerations, including safety, to profit. This is not unique to the aerospace manufacturer, but the basis of the entire capitalist system. The lives lost along the way are just the cost of doing business.
While the grounding of the Max 8 and lawsuits by pilots and relatives of victims are expected to cost Boeing $8 billion, the company increased in value by nearly $200 billion from the time that the deathtrap was announced in 2011 to when the planes were grounded.
The anarchy and irrationality of the capitalist market have been given unbridled rein by the deregulation of the airline industry—and every other sector of the capitalist economy—which began under Democrat Jimmy Carter in 1978 and has continued under both Democrats and Republicans for the past four decades. It is of a piece with the financialization and deindustrialization of the economy and the destruction of jobs, wages and social services.
For his part, Muilenburg laid off 16,000 workers in 2016 and 2017, his first two full years as CEO. As a reward, he draws a salary of $30 million a year. This year, nearly a third of his compensation has come from selling off a sizeable chunk of his Boeing stock a month before the Ethiopian Airlines crash.
Like many mega corporations, Boeing occupies a strategic position in the global operations of American imperialism and is tightly integrated into the state military/intelligence apparatus. It is the largest US exporter and second largest defense contractor. It is on the front lines of the mounting trade conflict with Europe, in which Boeing faces off against Europe’s Airbus. Since Trump’s election, it has more than tripled its stock price, spearheading the massive run-up on the Dow that has bolstered the fortunes of the American ruling elite.
Boeing is only one example of the lawlessness of the operations of big business. The recent past has seen the BP oil spill, the lead poisoning of Flint, the opioid epidemic, the wildfires and power outages linked to PG&E and the Wall Street crash of 2008. Not a single CEO has gone to jail as a result of these disasters driven by corporate greed and criminality. As Obama’s attorney general Eric Holder told Congress in 2013, America’s corporate barons and their business empires are “too big to jail.”
These are not aberrations or the products, at root, of subjective avarice—although blind greed exists in abundance. The criminalization of the American ruling class is the product of the degeneration and crisis of the entire social and economic system of capitalism.
The Boeing disasters underscore the need to put an end to capitalism and replace it with socialism, which is based on the satisfaction of social need, not private profit. This means mobilizing the working class to expropriate the private owners of the banks and major corporations and transform corporate giants such as Boeing into publicly owned and democratically controlled utilities. It means ending the dictatorship of the corporations over the workers and placing the control of economic life in the hands of the producers.

"The report was drafted in conjunction with a survey conducted among nearly 1,000 banking and business executives, government officials and academics, which found that 93 percent of them feared a worsening of confrontations between the major powers in 2018. Fully 79 percent foresaw a heightened threat of a major “state-on-state” military conflict."

Are We Heading Toward
Civil War? A New Poll Shows Voters Think We’re on The Edge
The American Civil War was brutal. It
remains the bloodiest conflict we have ever fought. It defined the nation and left
an imprint that remains to this day, but it was for the better. For starters,
the rigid regionalism that was heavily entrenched was washed away. Americans
viewed themselves as…Americans, not Virginians, Alabamans, Georgians, or New
Yorkers first. The U.S. as national identity was forged out of the ashes of
this conflict. The United States was 34 states at the
outbreak of the war. Its conclusion saw it become one nation. The notion of
military officers resigning their commissions to join their state’s secession
efforts is alien today. It was not back then. We share common principles; we’re
also a country where folks move more frequently. There is mobility. But that
doesn’t mean that a sizeable slice of the population that wants to annihilate
the other won’t be any less destructive.
The ties that bind us together, the notion
that we’re one country united, has been a buffer for the vicious divisions that
led to our civil war. Yes, there were many other issues as well, but you can
discuss that among yourselves. With recent surveys showing how liberals and
conservatives value different cultural norms and view the other as alien, are
we on the path toward another destructive conflict between the states? The
lines would be different. It would probably be the coasts versus the rural
interior instead of north versus south, but I digress.
Oftentimes, people roll their eyes when
others spout new civil war talk or armed rebellion against the government, but
nearly 70 percent of Americans think we could be reaching that point according
to a new poll.
Partisan
political division and the resulting incivility has reached a low in America,
with 67% believing that the nation is nearing civil war, according to a new
national survey.
“The
majority of Americans believe that we are two-thirds of the way to being on the
edge of civil war. That to me is a very pessimistic place,” said Mo Elleithee,
the executive director of Georgetown University’s Institute of Politics and
Public Service.
And worse, he said in announcing the
results of the institute’s Battleground Poll, the political division is likely
to make the upcoming 2020 presidential race the nastiest in modern history.
In June of 2018, Rasmussen found that 31 percent of voters felt a
civil war was possible within the next five years. Maybe this thing is being
overblown. It’s a highly divisive time. Tensions and emotions are running high.
Will cooler heads prevail? I don’t know. All I know is that this nation became
after our first civil war. Slavery was abolished, and the national identity we
know today emerged from one of the most brutal moments in our history.

Left-wing progressives are embracing a political alliance with
Silicon Valley oligarchs who would trap Americans in a cramped future
without hope of upward mobility for themselves or their children, says a
left-wing political analyst in California.
Historically, liberals advocated
helping the middle class achieve greater independence, notably by owning houses
and starting companies. But the tech oligarchy — the people who run the five
most capitalized firms on Wall Street — have a far less egalitarian vision.
Greg Fehrenstein, who interviewed 147 digital company founders, says most
believe that “an increasingly greater share of economic wealth will be
generated by a smaller slice of very talented or original people. Everyone else
will increasingly subsist on some combination of part-time entrepreneurial ’gig
work‘ and government aid.”
Numerous oligarchs — Mark
Zuckerberg, Pierre Omidyar, founder of eBay, Elon Musk and Sam Altman, founder
of the Y Combinator — have embraced this vision including a “guaranteed wage,”
usually $500 or a $1,000 monthly. Our new economic overlords are not typical
anti-tax billionaires in the traditional mode; they see government spending as
a means of keeping the populist pitchforks away. This may be the only
politically sustainable way to expand “the gig economy,” which grew to 7
million workers this year, 26 percent above the year before.
Handouts, including housing
subsidies, could guarantee for the next generation a future not of owned
houses, but rented small, modest apartments. Unable to grow into
property-owning adults, they will subsist while playing with their phones,
video games and virtual reality in what Google calls “immersive computing.”
This plan, however, is being
challenged by the return of populism and nationalism when President Donald
Trump defeated the GOP’s corporatist candidates and the progressives’ candidate
in 2016. In his 2017 inauguration, Trump declared:
For too long, a small group in our
nation’s capital has reaped the rewards of government while the
people have borne the cost. Washington flourished, but the people did
not share in its wealth. Politicians prospered, but the jobs left and the
factories closed. The establishment protected itself, but not the citizens
of our country. Their victories have not been your victories. Their triumphs
have not been your triumphs. And while they celebrated in our nation’s capital,
there was little to celebrate for struggling families all across our land.
That all changes starting right here
and right now because this moment is your moment, it belongs to you …
What truly matters is not which
party controls our government, but whether our government is controlled by the
people.
For several years, Kotkin has been
dissecting the Democrats’ shift from working-class politics toward a tacit
alliance with the billionaires in the new information-technology industries
that are centralizing wealth and power through the United States. In 2013,
for example, he argued that California’s politics were increasingly “feudal“:
As late as the 80s, California was
democratic in a fundamental sense, a place for outsiders and, increasingly,
immigrants—roughly 60 percent of the population was considered middle class.
Now, instead of a land of opportunity, California has become increasingly
feudal. According to recent census estimates, the state suffers some of the
highest levels of inequality in the
country. By some estimates, the state’s level of inequality compares with that
of such global models as the
Dominican Republic, Gambia, and the Republic of the Congo.
At the same time, the Golden
State now suffers the highest level of poverty in the country—23.5 percent
compared to 16 percent nationally—worse than long-term hard luck cases like
Mississippi. It is also now home to roughly one-third of the
nation’s welfare recipients, almost three times its proportion of the nation’s
population.
Like medieval serfs, increasing numbers
of Californians are downwardly mobile, and doing worse than their parents:
native born Latinos actually have shorter lifespans than their parents,
according to one recent report. Nor are
things expected to get better any time soon. According to a recent Hoover
Institution survey, most
Californians expect their incomes to stagnate in the coming six months, a sense
widely shared among the young, whites, Latinos, females, and the less educated.

AMERICA’S ROAD TO REVOLUTION:
THE BANKSTER REGIME WILL BE TOPPLED AND
MEXICO PUSHED OUT OF AMERICA’S OPEN BORDERS!

Democrats Would Lose the Second Civil War, Too
It’s
obvious that the central tenet of the Democrat Party platform is now hatred and
contempt for Normal Americans. Taking their cue from the elites in Europe and
Canada who are stripping dissenters of their free speech rights and religious
freedoms, the leftist elite is moving to solidify its hold on power here with
the eager assistance of tech companies and the moral support of the Fredocons who
yearn to return to pseudo-relevance as the ruling class’s slobberingly loyal
opposition. In California, the leftist government is practically firing on Fort
Sumter. And nationally, these aspiring fascists are especially eager to disarm
Normal Americans – doing so would be an object lesson in who’s the boss, as
well as solving that frustrating problem of the Normals having the ability to resist.
Probably
because I’ve spent time where they actually had a civil war, many people ask me
– people whose names you know – whether I think this turmoil will all end in a
Second Civil War. They are seriously concerned, and not without cause – the
left’s hatred for Normal Americans and its dedication to totally stripping the
people who are the backbone of this country of their ability to participate in
their own governance is threatening to rip the country apart.
Do I
think there will be a civil war? No, but there could be. This is the Age of
Black Swans, and anything is possible – we could easily see the country split into red and blue. Civil war is unlikely, but never underestimate Democrat
stupidity and hatred. The Schlichter family learned that lesson a century and
half ago, the last time the Democrats decided to try to impose their hatred of
basic human rights on the rest of the country, when an army of Democrats burned our family hometown.
Oh,
they paid for it. And they would pay again. Democrats are 0-1 in insurrections,
and if they went for another round, they would be 0-2. It’s a matter of
terrain, numbers, and morale.
Democrats,
who think history began when Obama was elected, don’t understand the dangerous
game they are playing when they talk about how they want to impose their brown
shirt vision upon red America. The keyboard commandos of the left seek to hand
wave away the massive strategic challenge of imposing control by force upon a
well-armed, decentralized citizenry occupying the vast majority of the
territory, so they babble about drones and tanks as counterinsurgency trump
cards. But there are no trump cards in war. There are men, with rifles,
standing on patches of dirt, killing the people trying to push them off. That’s
the ugly reality of war. And multiply the usual brutality of war by ten when
it’s a civil war.
There
are two Civil War II scenarios, and the left is poorly positioned to prevail in
either one. The first scenario is that the Democrats take power and violate the
Constitution in order to use the apparatus of the federal government to
suppress and oppress Normal Americans. In that scenario, red Americans are the
insurgents. In the second scenario, which we can even now see the stirrings of
in California’s campaign to nullify federal immigration law, it is the blue
states that are the insurgents.
The
Democrats lose both wars. Big time.
Let’s
talk terrain and numbers. Remember the famous red v.
blue voting map? There is a lot
of red, and in the interior the few blue splotches are all cities like Las
Vegas or Denver. That is a lot of territory for a counter-insurgent force to
control, and this is critical. The red is where the food is grown, the oil
pumped, and through which everything is transported. And that red space is
filled with millions of American citizens with small arms, a fairly large
percentage of whom have military training.
Remember
what two untrained idiots did in Boston with a couple of pistols? They shut a
city down. Now multiply that by several million, with better weapons and
training.
Let’s
look at the counter-insurgent forces in the Democrat oppression scenario should
they attempt to misuse our law enforcement and military in an unconstitutional
manner to take the rights of American citizens. There are a lot of civilian law
enforcement officers, but the vast majority of the agencies are local –
sheriffs, small town police departments. They will not be reliable allies in supporting
unlawful oppression of their friends and neighbors. The major cities’ police
departments are run by Democrat appointees, so the commands would be loyal. But
the rank-and-file? A small percentage would be ideologically loyal. More would
be loyal because that’s their paycheck – they could be swayed or intimidated to
support the rebels. Others would be actively sympathetic to the insurgents.
This is true of federal law enforcement agencies as well.
And
the military? Well, wouldn’t the military just crush any resistance? Not so
fast. The military would have the combat power to win any major engagement, but
insurgents don’t get into major engagements with forces that have more combat
power. They instead leverage their decentralized ability to strike at the
counter-insurgents’ weak points to eliminate the government’s firepower
advantage. In other words, hit and run, and no stand-up fights.
For
example, how do a bunch of hunters in Wisconsin defeat a company of M1A2 Abrams
tanks? They ambush the fuel and ammo trucks. Oh, and they wait until the gunner
pops the hatch to take a leak and put a .30-06 round in his back from 300
meters. Then they disappear. What do the tanks do then? Go level the nearest
town? Great. Now they just moved the needle in favor of the insurgents among
the population. Pretty soon, they can’t be outside of their armored vehicles in
public. Their forces are spending 90% of their efforts not on actual
counter-insurgency operations but on force protection. Sure, they own their
forward operating bases, and they own a few hundred meters around them wherever
they happen to be standing at the moment, but the rest of the territory is
bright red. As my recent novel illustrates, American guerillas with small arms are a deadly threat to the
forces of a dictatorship.
But
the military is so big it would overwhelm any rebels, right? Well, how big do
you think the military is? And, more importantly, how many actual boots on the
ground can it deploy? Let’s put it in terms of brigade combat teams, which
total about 4,500 troops each. There are about 60 brigades in the Army, active and reserve, here and abroad, and let’s give the
Marines another 10 brigades, for about 70 brigades. Sounds impressive. But
that’s deceptive.
Let’s
put aside a big consideration – the existence of red states that would provide
for an insurgent government structure and possibly attract the loyalty of some
National Guard and even federal brigades. For example, if President Hillary
Clinton put down her chardonnay long enough to sign a ban on privately owned
guns, it’s not unreasonable to expect the governor of Texas to reject federal
authority – after all, California just taught us that this is totally cool. But
in this case, look for several brigades located there to hoist the Lone Star
flag.
So,
now the blue states are facing unconventional and conventional forces.
Let’s
ignore that problem and focus on a different challenge. Even a normal unit has
about 10% non-deployable members. Now, if these troops were assigned to combat
operations against other Americans, you would have significant additional
losses through desertion. Many of the senior leaders would participate – the
Obama generation – and there is a certain type of junior officer only too happy
to curry favor by sucking up in defiance of their oath (which is to the
Constitution, not to some leftist president). You can identify them because
they usually have “strategist” in their Twitter bios. But a lot of key, capable
officer and NCO leaders, and enlisted troops, would vanish. That is proper. It
is a violation of their oath to unconstitutionally oppress fellow Americans;
their duty would be to refuse such unlawful orders.
So,
you have significantly understrength units going in. Now, how many of the
troops in a brigade are actually even front line combat troops? About a third –
the rest are support. So a brigade is really about 1500 riflemen tops before
you count losses. Cut those in half for sleep, training, and refitting at any
one time (which is very generous) and your brigade is really 750 troops on your
best day with everyone showing up. Realistically, it’s 300.
That
holds one mid-sized town. And there are hundreds of
mid-sized towns. Plus there are millions of Normal Americans who would fight
back. Nothing would move without their permission – a few guys shooting up big
rigs along the interstate would shut down the entire trucking industry. Bottom
line: there simply are not enough military forces to clear and hold red
America.
What
about drones and bombers? Both are useful. But the minute a bombing strike
kills some red civilians the families of counter-insurgent drone operators and
pilots will be knocking at the base gates to be let inside. Now you’ll need
many of those brigades to protect the civilians you now need to protect from
retribution.
Civil
wars are harsh. That’s why you avoid them.
How
about the blue insurgency scenario? That goes even worse for the Democrats. You
have the federal government apparatus in the hands of red America, and the
insurgents are the opposite of decentralized and armed. They are conveniently
centered in gun-unfriendly blue cities. In other words, the blue civilian
population is much less of a threat.
A red
counter-insurgency avoids the problem of a decentralized insurgency and
insecure logistical lines. In the case of California, whose secessionist antics are approaching the point where President Trump could
legitimately employ his power to crush insurrections, the tactical problem is
relatively simple. For example, San Francisco is a hotbed of treason, but the
populace is largely unarmed and is trapped in a confined area. You put a
brigade on securing the Golden Gate and Bay Bridges, then put a brigade on the
San Francisco Peninsula to cut off the I-280 and US-101 corridors. Next you go to the Crystal Springs Dam and
cut off the water. Then you watch and wait as the tech hipsters run out of
artisanal sushi rice and kombucha.
After
about a week, they surrender. After all, you can’t eat and drink smugness. LA
is just bigger in scope – more corridors to cut off, but in the end the
population concentrations in large liberal urban areas that are their strength
also make them extremely vulnerable to logistical pressure.
Then
there’s another factor, an intangible but a crucial one. It’s commitment. The
Democrat threat to peace is based on its policies designed to deprive Normal
Americans of their right to speak freely, to worship freely, and to defend
themselves and their rights with firearms. Make no mistake – millions of Normal
Americans are willing to risk death to defend those rights. In fact, many swore
to do so when they entered our military and law enforcement. But who is the
leftist big talker willing to die to impose the fascist dream of censorship,
religious oppression, and disarmament on Normal American citizens? Is the
screeching SJW at Yale going to suit up in Kevlar? Is the Vox columnist going to grab a
M4? Is the Hollywood poser going to switch her gyno-beanie for a helmet?
No.
Hell, we just heard our liberal opponents explaining why a cop shouldn’t be
expected to go fight a scumbag murdering kids because it’s scary. America might split apart, but
it’s highly unlikely Team Kale n’ Vinyl would
fight should their big talk finally push Normal America too far.
