Michigan Emergency Manager law a travesty: ignored by Pols and media

[WikiIntelNews]

@freedomlover4422 It too bad you closed your account ... I had a good response for you!

If there is anyone out there interested in reading it let me know and I'll send it to your message box.

[WikiIntelNews]

@freedomlover4422 I tried posting my response at length here but to no avail. I outlined my response in three ways as you requested. I will send you this response in your personal message box. After reading it, please let me know what you think?

[pjamesbda]

@freedomlover4422 - I won't argue the condition exists that propping up weakness breeds more of the same, but this is not the rule. And it is worth it to the industrialists to recognize the importance of a workforce not victimized by unscrupulous practices. China is have labor riots now, as are other countries where the working suffer.

As to min. wage, the point that's eluded our discourse is the GOV actually IS the people's reaction to victimization. Or it used to be, and should be again.

[WikiIntelNews]

@freedomlover4422 "knows economics, and hold strong on the constitution."

You obviously don't know his economics! Ron Paul is a believer in the "Austrian School of economics" which is antithetical to the Constitution. In other words, it's Anti-constitutional. Don't take my word for it. Try doing a little research, he has written 6 books on it. It's amazing that Ron Paul supporters don't know this fact about the man.

[PatriotReport]

I support Ron Paul. He's the best we've got. He's not perfect but who is? I think your worries over states turning Nazi or Soviet are overblown. They are the only safeguard we have now to counter the Federal power.

[PatriotReport]

I support Ron Paul. He is the best we've got Ted. He's not perfect but who is? I think you're worries over States turning Nazi or Soviet are overblown.

[DustedDom]

LEAVE RON PAUL ALONE!!! HE NEVER DID ANYTHING TO YOU SO WAT PPL ARE NOT PERFECT BUT AT LEAST HE IS THE BEST WE GOT!!!!

[pjamesbda]

I've followed Ron P for years, and Ted has it to a T. When your core beliefs are that the State has no business in the matters of the people, then it MUST follow, that corporate power is free to do anything, and will crush the working middle class without the protection of either the State or private Unions.

God, it's so F'ing simple, and even transparent, as I'm in Fla. and just witnessed the wholeSALE election of the biggest corporate shill of all time Mitt R. it's obvious ppl are slaves!!

[tenebroust]

@pjamesbda A+ my friend.

[tenebroust]

@freedomlover4422 You are a fool. I only noted that Paul failed to vote on the final version of the NDAA that went to the President. If it was so important he should have voted. You can't even see beyond your limited worldview. If someone says constitution you think it's all good.

Some people are painfully unaware and unconscious to the fact that we live in a fascist society just plain and simple. And those that do realize it either despise it because they are true Americans or they embrace it because something about fascism is more appealing to them. After all in Mussolini's Italy there were in fact Jews and Jewish organizations that embraced Mussolini's corporatist philosophy until Hitler pressed him into stripping the Jews of their rights very late in his rule.

[55ella2007k]

You are one of the very few people, Ted, at least on YT, who actually "get's it". The deception is massive, it is incomprehensible for most people, who simply want a sort of savior to come along to fix things. This is NOT going to happen + cannot be brought about by simply trying to change to current structure from within (the govt), that is. It is too late for this now + possibly always has been. It is sad, that you have to scream + yell during your vids, but unfortunately >>

[55ella2007k]

@55ella2007k (continued 2): >>> but unfortunately, this is the ONLY way to get the public's attention anymore. Quite reflection and calm deliberation of very serious issues are no longer in demand - a demand, which was spurned on by effective advertising techniques long ago, a psychological tour-de-force, a weapon, really...

So, Michigan becomes Greece, in the magical world of international finance. All of this will backfire eventually. It's just a matter of time.

I agree, Beginning to feel that Ron Paul is less the answer, and after reading stuff on diebold today I guess I might be changing my vote. Just have to find the line that says vote the fuckers out. Were toast. God I love your stuff.

[bamboo4tameshigiri]

When banks (goldman/sachs) and private corporations take over the functions of government, for any reason including efficiency, we have a proper name for that: Fascism.

[GriffinElliot]

99.9% of all politicians who r 'permitted' by the D's & R's (control arms of the globalists) to run for office, r persons who have embraced the UN agendas: AGENDA 21-sustainable development. It is insidious--these 'believers' have infiltrated EVERY existing structure on this continent & r riding 'piggyback' while, like the parasites that they r, incrementally devour from within. State & local governments must be striped of all power, before the globalists can take control. ex: in PA PALCB

[jancrowb]

the crazy thing is, there are still many many people that voted for obama 4 years ago, and the very same people, are still saying that obama will put things right if they keep faith with him??? this is taking blind faith, to the level of delusion!

I always listen to my news backwards.. I log on cup of coffee in hand and look for any new Stench of Truth videos..then after I get the scoop I go and listen how they spin it on the news. I wish I could patch in a few of the vids to the cable ted turner networks! Like the old movie pump up the volume. I'll rent an old van and park outside of the towers and somehow patch in. :)

[chop98]

The CONstitution is something I would not fall back on in any situation. As Patrick Henry said, "It is a slave document." Until men and women realize that the whole "American Dream" is a ruse, then we'll always stay where we are. DON'T VOTE for anything or anybody. We all know how it ends up. And besides, why would you sign on a contract saying you want person X in office and don't care how they act? Signing that document via registered voter is you saying you're alright with it. It's a contract

@Zoink888 Well that just goes to show you that you don't know your own ass from a hole in the ground. I'd gather that your country is so much better. Truth is... even in your own beloved homeland, you're a slave and can't see the forest for the trees. Don't talk shit about another man or woman's home until your home is glass free.

[wisdomtrek]

Addendum to the below comment: Honesty to say "ALL BY A BLACK CONSTITUTIONAL LAWYER" is a bit much. Suffice to say he maintained the new normal in ALL instance's and propagated the furtherance of a slew of other trend lines of a tyrannical ilk. Suffice to say the CHANGE WE CAN BELIEVE IN was a lie. Can we agree on that boy's and girl's?

Torture. Rendition. Indefinite Detention without charge and without legal counsel. In ACTUALITY you are a slave on a slave plantation run by psychopaths.

[wisdomtrek]

Fascinating, a Constitutional lawyer, Barack Hussein Obama, who oversaw the systematic destruction of the Constitution. But then that's the trick, to find a personage who, SEEMINGLY, is about such and such and then have them turn around and do the exact opposite. The end of Posse Comitatus and Habeas Corpus in the form of the Patriot Act and know the NDAA.. Torture. The financial raping of the country ....ALL BY A BLACK CONSTITUTIONAL LAWYER. Got to admit though he smiles a 1000 watt smile.

[TheCaptainSlappy]

@wisdomtrek Revise all of that- Barry Soetoro, the Chief Executive Officer of the United States corporation, who is a BAR Associate (separate private corporation), oversaw EXTRA-constitutional LEGAL presumptions that were added outside the "Constitution", which itself, is nothing more than a private contract setup by individual estate/plantation corporation holders to protect their property. Oh...and they cannot "end" Habeas...you only presume they can inside THEIR private courts.

[quantumtheo]

Um, there's a show on NBC that's basically nothing but predictive programming about this: Parks and Recreation..... which takes place in my state, Indiana.

BTW, you should be able to hook up a different mic and set your capture software to use a different source. :)

[bryphi77]

The problem is that 99% of state and local "elected" officials are a mafia in themselves and only represent their own pockets. If people dont give a shit about the current mafia why would they care about the new one. This is why your theory that government can fix things is laughable. No normal moral person wants to rule over others for profit ... just mafia control freak scum... aka "politicians". This country is doomed and will collapse under its own corruption. Hopefully very soon.

[tenebroust]

@bryphi77 They serve interests other than the people they are supposed to serve. It is a prerequisite of my idea for reform that the special interests that the thieves kowtow to are removed from the equation.

[GR8ISH8]

Ron Paul is a frail old man who doesn't have the backbone to do shit.. I'm tired of hearing about him. I'd rather have someone with a distinguished military background to lead the nation than someone who was a OBGYN.. Then again with most of Amerika being pussified, maybe that's why Ron Paul's name keeps getting mentioned..

[hollyzone]

@GR8ISH8

uh pardon me but without such anatomy none of us would be here. If he had studied testicles would it make you more comfortable with him? Pissing contests are never any more productive than "pussyification". Just sayin'.

[badlegend1]

@GR8ISH8 Ron Paul was in the military during the Vietnam War a flight surgeon I think.No offence intended but you should read a little about subjects before you comment.

[chocomalk]

@GR8ISH8

As someone else pointed out, he was in the military and guess what? He actually has the backbone to stick to his principles regardless of public or political pressure, something no other candidate can say.

[hollyzone]

People need to read Night of Stone to see what could happen here in the US.

[tenebroust]

@silenthill123321 None Of The Above

[sixpackerh3]

as far as i'm concerned good riddance to the unions. they destroyed the good paying job markets and forced them over seas. the equivalence of 80 bucks an hour wasn't good enough, they wanted more and more and more. the brain washed union brats have it coming. they consistently vote democratic and have no idea why except for that is what they encouraged to do. these UAW jokers were making over a hundred thousand a year and getting hit the hardest on their taxes and still voted for the same asses.

[tenebroust]

@sixpackerh3 Wrong. This is the type of garbage mentality that perpetuates the myth. FREE TRADE took jobs overseas. I don't beggar my neighbor. I say why can't we ALL make a living wage rather than saying unions make more so they need to be torn down. It is because of collective bargaining that corporations have worked so hard to bust unions so everybody makes less.

[bryphi77]

@tenebroust Its always funny to hear people who produce nothing of survival value try to force laboring for money on others so that they can continue to survive.

[tenebroust]

@bryphi77 Who's forcing anyone to do anything?

[bryphi77]

@tenebroust Well, it seems like those that are dependent on their own enslavement and everyone elses have forgot that their ancestors never wanted to be forced into wage slavery. So when I see conversations about pro and anti union I have to laugh at how good of a job the masters have done at indoctrinating their slaves.

[tenebroust]

@bryphi77 Well it's the system as it stands. I actually think society and humanity would be much better if there was no "work" but that which we chose to do, or personally needed to do for ourselves, like kill or gather dinner.

[bryphi77]

@tenebroust LOL... YEAH! Thats the point... it is the system as it stands! What the fuck are you making these vids for, to perpetuate the current system? It seems that way listening to what you say much of the time.

[sixpackerh3]

@tenebroust yes free trade did also, i am from the Detroit area so i do know about unions. example- my neighbor comes home on the clock, does his yard work etc. goes back to work a few hours later to punch out. also if you have a drug or drinking problem you get paid time off to cleaned up, postal union is the same way. you and i would be fired immediately for this behavior!

[tenebroust]

@sixpackerh3 Those that have a negative view of unions tend to view the bad apples in the system as indicative of the whole. Unions succeeded in raising wages in this country from post world war to the 1970's then they were systematically attacked and what did we see? Industrial production in this country decimated, free trade destroying whole industries and unions.

[sixpackerh3]

@tenebroust these problems are far more rampant than a few bad apples. the union was once good, as with all things, ruined by greed

[TheCaptainSlappy]

@tenebroust Generally...I find that "anti-union" folk have never had a really good paycheck, and have never gotten their moneys' worth out of their labor. They also seem to parrot whatever the TV says ("Unions are EVIL!"). That said, a lot of the Unions went koo-koo for Cocoa Puffs, and are now fighting their own decline because of it. Did I mention the poor, mistreated mega-corporations are putting their boot in during the decline? They NEVER pass up a chance...Jimmy Hoffa 2012!

[quantumtheo]

@sixpackerh3 This is Rush Limbaugh, isn't it???

[sixpackerh3]

@quantumtheo i don't know if Rush was paid for his time off but in any case if it were me i wouldn't have a job to come back to

[zoilar69]

BAH,the whole systems a joke and irony is:it only exists on paper.Maybe when people realize that an actual revolution will take place.Not this current "im gonna stand in street holding a sign,until a few cops gangup on me and possible end my life or cripple me"and ofcourse while the other protesters just stand back and watch while all this is happening.

[MrSpan0701]

Hey that issue you are talking about was done with a signing statement from obama that was complicate with certain state representatives. The constitution means more than you know to Ron Paul, you would discover that if you wanted to, he only talks about it all the time. I find it pathological that you would attack Ron when he is the only candidate that stands for the constitution.

[tenebroust]

@MrSpan0701 Not when it comes to certain amendments and when it comes to states rights he would have no problem with a state that is run by a bunch of Nazis that deny people the right to elect their officials. In his scheme there would be no federal recourse.

[MrSpan0701]

@tenebroust Of coarse there would be recourse, READ the CONSTITUTION and BILL of RIGHTS. In cases were any state infringes on your rights the gov. will stand for your rights DA!! Ron Paul supports that. He hasnt mentioned that issue specifically but seeing how that was a signing statement any president can counter any other presidents signing statements. You seem to hot headed to listen to reason.

[tenebroust]

@MrSpan0701 That's what the paper says, but that is not what Paul stands for. This issue has nothing to do with signing statements.

[MrSpan0701]

@tenebroust Continue being a dumb ass. I grew up in Michigan and am not proud to think of you as a Michigander, I know there are more intelligent people there you are definitely not one of them.

[tenebroust]

@MrSpan0701 I'm not from Michigan but trying to help out you folks up there by pointing out the travesty going on.

[tenebroust]

@MrSpan0701 See the problem is that Paul thinks the 10th amendment is more important than some of the others, so if a state violates your rights as a citizen to equal protection under the law I doubt he would give a rat's ass. And after he's done gutting the federal government how could he enforce anything anyway?

[GnosticNinja]

@tenebroust The REAL problem is how everyone makes wild eyed assumptions.

U.S. OF A Inc. City-Zens HAVE NO UNALIENABLE RIGHTS

I feel your rage, Ted, but lets face it, the oligarchs learned in 2008 that they can fuck us as long, hard, and deep as they wish, and we will not only sit back and take it, we will ask for more. There is no way to beat THEIR system, the only way to win is not to play. A ghandi style mass strike is the only thing that will take things back, but that shit ain't gonna happen. As long as people can buy cold beer and watch football, they could care less.

[12Oc7ock]

No fucking clue what I just watched. How about elaborating on something before u bitch about it.

[MrSpan0701]

@12Oc7ock I agree and why is he attacking Ron, Ron is all about the constitution.

[tenebroust]

@MrSpan0701 Because Ron Paul would have no problem with this whatsoever. Has he said anything about it since it's been going on?

[tenebroust]

@12Oc7ock Michigan has a law that allows the governor to appoint an "emergency manager" for "distressed" communities and they are accountable to no one, can fire the elected officials, sell the city/towns assets, break union contracts, etc.

[slomotrainwreck]

@12Oc7ock I knew exactly what he was talking about.

[Northern5tar]

I'm amazed to hear there are still publicly owned assets to be pillaged in the US. Thought by now everything worth anything had been looted already. "If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency.." O what the hell. Over here we've got that IMF whore Lagarde screaming 'Austerity! Austerity!" Same fascist shit Ted.

[GR8ISH8]

@tenebroust need a audio dynamic compressor with a good studio mic... your dungeon videos all sound great.. on a different note.. have you ever studied the time frame in Germany when Hitler took over and threw out the Jew bankers?? Germany became a superpower... I think mixing national socialism with communism confuses your audience.. communism has killed far more people than national socialism.

[seekingjustthefacts]

The problem is that you people should have been screaming bloody murder when these rights were being taken from your own minority populations instead of supporting them on the grounds that these populations did not deserve rights. Now, it is happening to you, and there are few supporters to aid in your struggle. Why? Because these populations, just as the rest of the world, has already been under fascism, and no one gave a dam. Many now just look at you and wonder why should you be an exception.

[tenebroust]

@seekingjustthefacts I wasn't around to do anything for them. I was an infant during MLK's civil rights activity.

[seekingjustthefacts]

@tenebroust: But you are around now, and was for the past 15 years when the military and prison industrial complex was being supported and funded with almost unanimous approval by tax payer dollars. We need take our heads out of the sand of denial and ignorance. What we allow to be done in those communities will ultimately be done in ours. Just as it is being done today. We all have a responsibility in this. period. There is only ONE America, and it should not be divided.

[wiccan55524]

Hit the head on the nail!!! FASCIST!!!

[chocomalk]

Holy crap dude, how the hell do you go from corruption in Michigan to Ron Paul? He is on record as opposing the NDAA and no he would NOT be ok with a Stalinist/fascist sell-off of the State of Michigan. Talk about a leap, you may not support him or any candidate but don't just make shit up.

[tenebroust]

@chocomalk Because his stance on supposed states rights, would force states to adopt right to work and he would have no problem with a state instituting Jim Crow laws, or the type of thing that is going on in Michigan. Under his scheme there would be no federal recourse for your state denying you the right to have elected representation in your city or state.

[chocomalk]

@tenebroust

There is no legislation or stance that demands Stares adopt Right-to-work laws.

The Jim Crow issue is your opinion of his stance and the likelihood of such an event is slim to none and would be detrimental to any state that even tried.

"There would be no federal recourse..." Seriously dude, States can only do so much within the framework of the Constitution.

Tell me, what is the difference between the Fed and State Governments? Both do harm and good.

[wanker89]

@navtel I would think that a state that is dismantling elected governments in favor of a commisar dictator would be something that he would be itching to comment upon.  But he hasn't because whatever a state decides to do is fine with him.

[YouSayYouWantA]

@tenebroust Here in Luzerne County, Pennsylvania we voted to get rid of our representative county government in favor of a County Manager that is on his way in from California.. I will let you know how it goes.

[RocknRollaRevolution]

Have you thought of joining your state militia? If run away inflation starts from the limitless printing of the us dollar from the federal reserve, a gallon of gas could end up costing what your monthly payment on your car is now.
