About this user
"I have unwilling ruined my country. A great industrial nation is controlled by its system of credit. Our system of credit is concentrated in hands of a few men."
"We have come to be one of the most ruled, one of the most completely controlled & dominated governments in the world no longer a government of free opinion, no longer a government of conviction and vote of the majority, but a government by the opinion and duress of small groups of dominant men."
-- President Woodrow WIlson
(Shortly after realizing that he surrendered, signed into submission & relinquished control of the United States & each of its citizens into the control of the Federal Reserve Bank; a privately owned banking institution. A mistake that subsequently destroyed the nation, sold us all into debt & slavery. A mistake from which we will never recover.)

"Politics is the art of controlling your environment."
"Freedom is something that dies unless it's used."
"America... just a nation of two hundred million used car salesmen with all the money we need to buy guns & no qualms about killing anybody else in the world who tries to make us uncomfortable."
"In a nation ruled by swine, all pigs are upwardly mobile—and the rest of us are fucked until we can put our acts together: not necessarily to win, but mainly to keep from losing completely. We owe that to ourselves and our crippled self-image as something better than a nation of panicked sheep."
"We are turning into a nation of whimpering slaves to Fear—fear of war, fear of poverty, fear of random terrorism, fear of getting down-sized or fired because of the plunging economy, fear of getting evicted for bad debts or suddenly getting locked up in a military detention camp on vague charges of being a Terrorist sympathizer."
"The TV business is uglier than most things. It is normally perceived as some kind of cruel & shallow money trench through the heart of the journalism industry, a long plastic hallway where thieves & pimps run free & good men die like dogs, for no good reason."
"For every moment of triumph, for every instance of beauty, many souls must be trampled."
"I have a theory that the truth is never told during the nine-to-five hours."
"If you're going to be crazy, you have to get paid for it or else you're going to be locked up."
"In a closed society where everybody's guilty, the only crime is getting caught. In a world of thieves, the only final sin is stupidity."
"It was the Law of the Sea, they said. Civilization ends at the waterline. Beyond that, we all enter the food chain, and not always right at the top."
"Myths and legends die hard in America. We love them for the extra dimension they provide, the illusion of near-infinite possibility to erase the narrow confines of most men's reality. Weird heroes & mould-breaking champions exist as living proof to those who need it that the tyranny of 'the rat race' is not yet final."
"I understand that fear is my friend, but not always. Never turn your back on fear. It should always be in front of you, like a thing that might have to be killed."
"All political power comes from the barrel of either guns, pussy, or opium pipes, and people seem to like it that way."
"When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro."
"There are times, however, and this is one of them, when even being right feels wrong. What do you say, for instance, about a generation that has been taught that rain is poison & sex is death? If making love might be fatal and if a cool spring breeze on any summer afternoon can turn a crystal blue lake into a puddle of black poison right in front of your eyes, there is not much left except TV & relentless masturbation. It's a strange world. Some people get rich & others eat shit & die."
"Buy the ticket, take the ride."
-- Dr. Hunter S. Thompson

"I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks & corporations that will grow up around [the banks] will deprive the people of all property until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered. The issuing power should be taken from the banks & restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs."
-- President Thomas Jefferson
