Too bad the teeny-weeny geniuses that are designing our society according to their version of the Grand Plan aren't looking at the most obvious consequences of their actions. Look at Henry Kissinger, Dick Cheney, and some of the other longtime NWO schills - devolving into trolls and monkeys (Bush, Blair...). No amount of blood, pain and terror will restore their youth, beauty or power. They have a short time before they see for themselves the destiny they have wrought for themselves, alone.

yeah this is sad news because so many people have stepped away from the traditional way of healing mentally and physically by first getting the spirit in order. It's common sense, but Im sure many will argue that it is hope. Umm to me hope isn't in a bottle. Hope comes through prayer and following the natural laws of life-> herbs and the nature's healing through fruits & veggies as well as meditation. America is a stressed country too so that's why.

This is how the world works. Wall Street, politicians and large corporations think like me. Do u think the military complex ever thinks about the weapons they developed to kill people. Get with the program. The world is cruel and so be it. Remember, u are nothing but a debt slave to the country. U pay tax until u die.
