Aquarius

While shopping yesterday, I saw Real Change by Newt Gingrich and purchased the book. I thought it would be interesting to read Gingrich's differing view from Barrack Obama's view of change.

Under "America's Natural Majority," I read, "Ask the American people if they want a moment of silence for children to pray if they desire in public school, and 94 percent say yes."

"Ask the American people if they support making English the official language of the United States, and 87 percent say yes."

"Ask the American people if al Qaeda poses a serious threat to our country, and 93 percent say yes."

"Ask the American people if they believe it is possible to negotiate with terrorist groups like al Qaeda, and 79 percent say no. "

"Ask the American people if the Social Security system is broken, and 80 percent say yes."

"Ask the American people if it is important for the president and Congress to address the Social Security mess within the next few years, and 96 percent say yes."

Barrack Obama, if elected, is going to fix the problem of high rollers cheating the public by raising their taxes and giving 95 percent of the taxpayers a cut in taxes. With the economy going into the tank, and jobs being lost, and government revenue going down, Obama wants to grow government and dependence.  John McCain, if elected, wants to cut taxes for everyone and reduce the size of government.

Where's the change? What we, the people, are getting from our government is rancorous debate, period! None of the problems are being solved. With the majority of the American people together, government is determined on keeping us divided. So what else is new?

Gingrich made his point on page 7: "While Republicans are closer to core American values in their doctrines of lower taxes, limited government, more entrepreneurship, more private sector job creation, and strength in national security, they refuse to think deeply enough about the performance failures of the last six years of Republican attempts at governing, and they refuse to invest the energy that is needed to understand the problems plaguing the inner city."

The bottom line: lousy leadership. The question: how do we get the change we desperately need? Although Gingrich can point out the problem, I can tell you before I read the book that I'm not going to get effective answers. Newt Gingrich, one of America's recognized authorities, as far as he goes, is correct, but he is limited to the established way of dealing with problems.

Since we, the people, are together in what we want, why do we listen to the establishment? We, the people, are closest to the problem. The unfortunate fact is that we are not recognized authorities. We don't have a public voice. The answer to our problem is one on one contact. It's a do-it-yourself job to put yourself in the driver's seat.

When I departed from the establishment's way, this Jonathon Livingston Seagull paid a price.  I could easly have ended one of society's cast aways, but I didn't.  They say God works in mysterious ways. If God and I are one, I work in mysterious ways. Were this not so, I would not be able to say that if it can be any better than I have it, I don't know how. You find in the story of my life that it wasn't always that way.  Does Washington have the answer?  What more can I say about our need for change?

Aquarius

Newt Gingrich's Real Change is my Aquarian advisor. I'm the messenger. We, the people, are the only means of real change. Gingrich advises that for America to truly change, "we must convince a lot of citizens that citizen leadership, rather than citizen passivity or citizen complaining, is the key to a successful country." He gives us three things to we must do to secure life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. "First, we must move from the politically correct values of our elites back to the core values of the vast majority of Americans. Second, we must move from an increasingly ineffective and incompetent system of bureaucratic failure and destructive government policies and toward an effective twenty-first-century system of elections and government that works for the country and for the individual. And third, we must move from uncertainty about danger in the world and confusion about the value of public safety to a clear recognition the world is dangerous, and that the first obligation of government is to defend America and her allies by defeating the enemies and enforcing the oath of American citizenship: to ‘support and defend the Constitution and laws of the United States of America against all enemies, foreign and domestic.'"

The domestic enemy, advises Gingrich, is "the entrenched permanent government in Washington." It raises the question of who but we, the people, are left with the burden of making essential changes? We should now realize that our representatives in Washington have not been looking out for us. We're paying an enormous price, while they enhance their control over us.

The Republican National Convention rekindled my hope, but the following events leave me with zero faith in the structure and policies of the federal government. What have those senators done for which to pat themselves on the back? They nauseate me. McCain is one of them. What a disappointment! He has dropped the ball.

One flickering ember is left at this crucial point in America's history, Governor Palin's debate with Senator Biden. She just might get things moving again in the right direction. If she fails, get ready for four more years of failed government policies, not only guaranteeing hard economic times but greatly increasing the risk of domestic and foreign violence. Today's events could turn the story of my life into an obituary on American principles and values.

Gingrich brings up eight past reforms in American politics and how to achieve a ninth wave of reform. We must realize that we are not here to serve government, says Gingrich. Exactly! We value spending our money for our own purposes, not for the common good, the stupid idea of the intelligentsia, the Harvard educated, like Obama, who know better how to spend our money. This leftist extremist, if elected, will lead the nation on the fast track to moral, fiscal, and spiritual bankruptcy. We've plenty to say, and McCain isn't saying it. Everyone knows that the entitlement programs are all in trouble. Obama says if he is elected he's going to raise Social Security taxes. I should mention that the American people have underwritten a trillion dollars of future obligations for government worker retirements, which are more than double Social Security. No way, but who in office cares? It's years down the line. Let the future take care of itself; that is, let our children pay for our neglect.

Speaking of our children, their education is a colossal outrage. They are under the control of a bureaucracy that has one objective: the enhancement of its power. Senator Obama, a disciple of the federal bureaucracy, is putting his own people, many of whom are high school dropouts, who can't hold a job, in prison. He's the blind leading the blind.

Where are our pip squeak representatives? The American people got on the telephone to their representatives over the bailout of Wall Street. They voted the bailout down. I speak from experience. There are considerations larger than self, the principles and values we hold dear. Once I came to this conclusion, my life started to change for the better.

We're at risk of losing our freedom. One of the American revolutionaries who fought for America's independence, I don't recall the name, said "the only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing." The thought I typed in my high school typing course takes on real meaning: "Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their country."

The truth of the matter is in that "natural ability without education has more often raised a man to glory and virtue than education without natural ability. "  This was Roman jurist Marcos Cicero's observation. In any event, freewill is the conscious ability to choose, a necessary condition for learning. Reality is a school in which we learn by experiencing the consequences of our choices.  So much for theory, but  it is hard to deny experience.  I have a high school education and two years of college.

America's arrogant  leftists, as usual, are at it again.  What to they know about the common man's life? The intelligentsia's latest slap in the face of natural ability has this to say about the Palin-Biden debate. The bar was low for her, "so, in a contest of low expectations, Palin won." However, she remains unqualified to be vice president. She didn't answer many of the questions and frequently referred to her notes. Wouldn't you know that no mention was made of Biden spinning every answer and flat-out lying a lot. Biden didn't need to refer to notes. He's been practicing his sleasy art for 35 years. Why do you think Obama picked him? If the truth were known, there is no way Obama can win the election. In every sense of the word, socialist Joseph Biden told the world that he and Barrack Obama are smoke and mirrors. Sara Palin is a brilliant debater. My hopes came true in that debate. Palin rekindled the fire that is going to defeat the socialists.

Newt Gingrich, in Real Change, asserts, "Advances in technology, science, engineering, and medicine hold the promise of benefits our parents couldn't even dream of. If we make the right choices now, America will enjoy a level of prosperity, safety, and freedom unknown to previous generations. But if we make the wrong choices, we will suffer the very serious consequences of a set of challenges we choose to ignore." 

Biden was right. This is the most important election in your life.  Most Americans feel they can't do anything about America's growing problems so they try not to think about it. Although Gingrich points out in Real Change that General Eisenhower used to say, "Whenever I run into a problem I can't solve, I always make it bigger; I can never solve it by making it smaller; but if I can make it big enough I can begin to see the outline of a solution," you will never get my take on that idea from any other source because nobody else has had my experience.

Here's something for you to think about. In 1973, after a period of double digit inflation, and the bank charging me 12 percent interest, my business enterprise lost money. The Nixon Administration fixed the problem with price controls. America's biggest corporations were given the privilege of fixing prices so they could drive independents like me out of business.

I was forced to sell land. Although I received double what I paid for it, I broke even. The dollars I received would buy half as much. U.S. capital gains law did not consider inflation, on the socialist notion that the rich could afford to pay in order that those entitled to government benefits could receive a cost of living increase. The basis of that notion was the intelligentsia's well know idea that government knows best how to distribute the nation's resources. It was first the Nixon Administration's punch below the belt followed by the socialists' knock-out punch, a big tax on a loss that ultimately put me on the street.

Hardly taking from the rich and giving to the poor, as it was in 1973, and is now, such knaves as we find on Wall Street and in the oil industry, coupled with Washington's raw power, the combination is taking America down the drain. My dear friends, we can never solve the problem by making it smaller, which is exactly what the current bailout is doing. Palin's words, "let us see to it that it never happens again," are my words.

In the story of my life, we find that I ran into a problem I couldn't solve, so I made it bigger by reading Edward S. Corwin's The Higher Law Background of American Constitutional Law. The same as Eisenhower, I began to see an outline of the solution-demand to be heard in a meaningful way in a meaningful place.

I had the constitutional right under the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution. The IRS called me a Fifth Amendment freak; that is, the IRS that Congress allows to make unlimited mistakes against taxpayers. We are forced by law to prove in court the deliberate mistakes the IRS makes. I was twice in the Tax Court, The District Court three times, the Court of Appeals and the Supreme Court. But that didn't stop the IRS from walking into my bank and mistakenly taking every cent I had. What could be more lawless than this? Against huge odds, I won, not in court, but by taking my case to the press. It took eleven years to force the government to admit it was wrong, but only in a front page newspaper story. Although my win made no difference in anyone else's life, it made me feel ten foot tall. Give credit to thinking there was something I could do to where I am now-where I want to be.

In Real Change, Gingrich says, "If we truly believe in our goals, if we understand that we're going to have to fight for them and that the fight might be long and hard, then there is every reason to approach the task with persistence." I wonder what the poor folks are doing. Maybe they would be better served to think there is something they can do about being poor other than going to Washington with their hands out. From where I sit, going to Washington is the reason they are poor.

Gingrich informs me in Real Change that Einstein took the world a step further in knowing how it all comes together, but he missed the point of the real change that is silently taking place. While Newton's laws of motion left us a clockworks, a three ring circus, as it were-animals jumping through hoops-we didn't have a choice, in Gingrich's words, "Einstein's great breakthrough came from being able to think differently. To stand outside the problems and visualize their solution in very practical, simple human terms." Gingrich mentions quantum mechanics in connection with Einstein's relativity. Unfortunately, Gingrich is ignorant, as is the vast majority of people, of the most fantastic scientific discovery of all times-that there really is an immaterial universe.

While Einstein was impressed by quantum theory, he could not accept the core of the universe being random-not made of things. Science has learned that the atom is not yet a thing because every time it is observed it looks different. Einstein toyed with the idea of an immaterial dimension, but he had the reputation of being a great scientist to protect. Please realize that science has learned as much about the microcosmic since I took high school physics in 1942 as we've learned about the macrocosmic since Galileo discovered that the planet Earth was not the center of the universe.

You don't talk about the immaterial if you are a scientist, not anymore than a priest talks about God being material. Please forgive me for laughing, but the universe is not in parts to suit man's conveniences. This Aquarian messenger, in the story of my life, takes the reader a giant step further than Gingrich, into the crazy quantum world that relatively few know.

When the atom is observed, one of many possibilities becomes real, but quantum theory gives us no indication which one of the possibilities will be actualized. We don't live in that kind of a world. The sense in quantum theory is in that, along with the space-time consortium, there is a dimension of infinite possibility-where things have yet to become, you might say the universe's womb. Subatomic particles are the aspects of matter. The space-time dimension keeps everything from happening at once. The transition from the dimension of infinite possibility to a place happens in the mind.

Consciousness, the basis of this new-found reality-the observer interacting with matter-is the latest scientific discovery. The old guard desperately clings to the past, designing models of humanity and forcing all the pieces to fit. No man is above nature but try to tell that to a socialist. If you know how it all comes together,  folks, it is futile to think you can build a model for everyone to follow.

Take the mind, the implementor, and consider what that means. I predict that the animal drive for power, or the law of the jungle, is going to be replaced by love of life and a far higher regard for the individual than our world has ever witnessed. A vote for the McCain-Palin ticket is a first step in a thousand mile journey.

The Truth About America

In Real Change, Gingrich points to eight waves or cycles, reflecting America's core values, that have been transforming us toward our greater purpose. We're in the ninth cycle now. The ninth cycle brings me back to my statement, "Coincidentally, the cutting edge of science is lined up with antiquity's ideas of the Higher Law. In keeping with the Higher Law, you find when you read the story of my life that it parallels the 9 cycles the ancients gave us in our development, starting with striking out alone and ending with the desire to be of universal service. Actually, I did strike out alone after my bigger than life calling in 1973. In 2008, I can say that if life gets any better I don't know how."

All of the blogs on my life story are saved in my Word Perfect word processor in one file. By typing in a word or phrase in my "Find and Replace" feature, that word or phrase pops up immediately with thoughts I've written. It is a far more effective way of reaching back in time for connections with my current thinking concerning happenings. The word "happenings" brings me to this past thought: "In Chapter 18, ‘A God for Tomorrow,' in Evan Harris Walker's The Physics of Consciousness, he begins with-‘I am he who exists from the Undivided-the Gospel of Thomas.' Exactly! ‘It has only been with the advent of quantum theory that we have discovered proof that we exist as something more than pieces of matter . . . We have found ways to take the measure of consciousness to study its contact with the functions of the brain, and to discover how the mind, through the agency of the will, effects matter and transcends the limits of space and time,' states Walker."

These thoughts, stored in my computer, makes it easier to recall what I've been thinking. Were they not stored, I could still reach back but not nearly so easily and efficiently. Suppose happenings back to the beginning of the universe were stored. There is a supercollider being built in Cern, Switzerland that will hopefully tell science what the universe looked like a nanosecond (one-millionth of a second) after it appeared. What was there before it appeared? From nothing comes nothing. "Asserts Walker, ‘Matter, objects-a physical domain, exists that is governed by immutable laws. But these laws leave open a range of happenings that are left to the selection of the mind.'"

Obviously, prior to the physical universe, the mind of God existed, or better put, since the word god is so misinterpreted, as distinguished from the supernatural, the superconsciousness of the universe. It is impossible to imagine that everything happens by accident. With this thought in mind, I wrote a menu of phases to check out in the story of my life: We were created to cope; let us make man in our image; I AM THAT I AM; the law of the jungle; the powers that be; Did God make a mistake? The answer is too detailed to publish. If you will copy from the Internet to your word processor all the blogs I've written on the story of my life in a single file (at the moment 75,000 words), then you can not only read the details of my menu of phrases, the file can be useful in questions you might have.

Type in the phrase, "bigger than life calling." You will find that our existence is metaphysical. We're in the image of the superconsciousness of the universe. With the will, in the story of my life you find that we can do anything and be anything we desire to be. I've had the experience. Just type in a word or phrase and you might find the answer you want and need in the story of my life. Type in the word "mind." My mind's thoughts might bring you to the solution of a problem.

Based on the knowledge of others, consider that Bill Gates, who came up with an original idea by which the world could greatly benefit, Gates is now the richest man in the world. This unknown young computer nerd's unconventional idea would have gone to the grave with him had he not have found someone who listened and backed an idea that did not make conventional sense. My unconventional wisdom, which has a perfectly plausible bases, which can bring the world an unimaginably great future, which costs nothing, which has never been pursued because of paradigm limitations, will go to the grave with me if no one finds the story of my life useful in their lives.

The Truth About America

From antiquity's shamans, to the Pharos, to Attila the Hun, to Hitler, we're either born to lead, to follow, or to be somewhere in-between. Over the ages, the male leader-female follower characteristic has changed, to a degree. We're either on the follower side or the leader side. Since he promises more help than his opponent, more women are naturally for Daddy Warbucks Obama. Naturally, the current economic meltdown gets Daddy Warbucks more votes. Guess who caused it?

McCain says he's going to cut taxes for everyone and reduce the size of government, which backs my thinking and my experience with America's lawless politicians. By the way, McCain twice tried to get legislation passed to stop the Democrats from giving people homes who could not afford a home. The Democrats voted solidly against it both times and now blames McCain for wanting to deregulate. They will tell any lie, try any tactic to grab power. Whatever it takes.

David Asman, for Fox News, aired "Saving our Economy: What's Next?" He placed the blame squarely on Obama and the Democrats for toxic home mortgages to the tune of a trillion dollars. Obama received fat checks from the give-away artists at Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae. What the Democrats did was like setting bear traps to catch the innocent, which made it imperative to amputate legs or die of gangrene poisoning, and then pinning a rose on themselves for saving lives. Think again if you are betting on Obama helping you out. He wouldn't know the truth if it hit him in the face.

On Obama's plan of taking from the rich and giving to the poor, Asman had an expert talk.. She said Roosevelt's New Deal (taking from the rich and giving to the poor) prolonged the Great Depression. It takes private capital to produce goods and services in a free economy. If government backs greedy capitalists by handing out taxpayer money, it leaves the taxpayer a basket case.

The book that led me to personal success, The "Higher Law" Background of American Constitutional Law, begins with this prefatory note: "The hard core of the American tradition is a belief in constitutional government. When the American pledges his allegiance to democracy (which has now been declared unconstitutional) as he so often must in this age that mingles triumph and frustration, he means constitutional democracy, a system of government in which political power is diffused by a written constitution and the wielders of power are held in check by the rule of law."

Obama says he will continue with Roosevelt's legacy. In my case against the Commissioner of Internal Revenue, who lawlessly put me on the street, here's what Obama wants. I'm quoting Roosevelt. I wrote this in my brief to the U.S. Supreme Court, on my Writ of Certiorari to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. (The Ninth Circuit Court has outlawed the Pledge of Allegiance in schools.) "While it isn't written in the Constitution, nevertheless, it is the inherent duty of the Federal Government to keep its citizens from starvation." Backed by the Supreme Court, Obama has a duty to keep certain people from starvation, but what about the taxpayers?.

Obama doesn't have a duty to keep taxpayers from starvation. I've the case to prove it. We, the American people, have the "Higher Law." Obama has a form of law. Hitler had a form of law. And let me advise you of this fact. You still have the right to take your government to court for violation of your constitutional rights. You don't need a lawyer. Just be sure that you are backed by the law. Neither the IRS or America's system of justice could stop me. The IRS resorted to mafia tactics and got itself exposed on the front page of the Palm Beach Post. Like I say, you gotta take care of your rights. They are not automatic. As it stands now, the United States of America has a duty to take care of us with taxpayer money. If more people vote to be taken care of than the vote of taxpayers, all I can say if you vote for Obama is, good luck!

The Truth About America

The truth hurts. America is badly divided. You can't organize human behavior when you've got neither organizing skills nor human intelligence. And another thing, divine providence helps those who help themselves.

A frog has emerged who has turned into Prince Charming, who tells the American people he is going to give them college educations, great health care, cheaper energy, and lower the taxes for 95 percent of America's workers. Who cares whether he turned from frog to prince? There is no reason why a weaker economy would prevent Prince Charming from accomplishing his goals. Our Prince Charming says the choice is four more years of George Bush's failed policies or a change. The change is hanging onto Franklin D. Roosevelt's failed policies.

The American people remain under the misguided notion that divine providence has made them the world's chosen. They are not alone in this belief. Others think of Americans as ugly ingrates. So, let's have a look at America's sleazy lead, the lead that has bin Laden and other saviors of mankind with a bigger than life calling to destroy America. The lead with Prince Charming-he talks about invading Pakistan, if they don't shape up-he will get out of Iran and hunt down and kill bin Laden. If elected, he promises to talk with said remaining saviors doing God's work. An examination of this frog's record reveals that he is as misguided as the enemy.

The amoral leaders of America's ingrates in Washington allowed people to own homes who didn't have the money to make the mortgage payments. We know who they are. With zero down, people were given home ownership. With high demand for a home, and with little to no down payment, millions of new homes were built. It was great for the American economy. It brought about increased tax revenue. It caused homes to soar in price, which gave homeowners the ability to refinance and make the down payment that had been delayed. It was a win-win situation, which suddenly turned into a no-win situation.

This time, Wall Street found a magic mathematical formula that allowed a certain mix of bad mortgages. Having sold itself on this formula, which made billions of dollars for the instigators, they sold their pig in the poke to unwary investors. Sooner or later it was bound to happen. The over-inflated balloon burst. Suddenly investors lost a trillion dollars, while the instigators counted their billions in profits.

Washington did not mind the store, but patting itself on the back, as usual, passed legislation to bail out the economy on the taxpayers poor aching back.

This American frog turned into Prince Charming is following in the footsteps of Roosevelt. Wall Street's alchemy-turning lead into gold, led to the stock market crash in 1929. Roosevelt's cure, turning gold into paper money, and redistribution of income, only prolonged the Great Depression, causing worldwide depression, Hitler, and World War II. It was World War II, not Roosevelt's remedy, that ended the Great Depression. It was a credit economy that made America prosperous. The over-extension of credit is what is bringing down the economy. Prince Charming, in the face of excessive credit, and the burden placed on the taxpayers, if elected, plans on spending a trillion dollars more in help for the American people. I'm sorry to say the same thinking that put people in homes who didn't have the money to make the payments is the thinking of those who are going to vote for Prince Charming. The Prince is telling people who have no money to buy bread that we can have cake and eat it.

What happens if and when the saviors in the Middle East force us into war?  We've an already over-extended  credit. Man has come a long way since he lived in caves, but by understanding nature, not by tricks of magic. The American people think they are above the Higher Law of nature. The music has stopped. There are not enough seats. So go ahead, if you will, and vote for Prince Charming. This frog posing as a Prince remains a frog and you will know it soon enough.

The Evolved Self

I want to take this opportunity to thank Barrack Obama's support for this senior citizen's financial help. But thinking about you, the taxpayer, I know the support I'm receiving can't continue. It's a pyramid game. Likewise, by giving people the opportunity to buy a home they could not afford, Obama and the like-minded caused an economic crises. Their answer, a shot in the arm-something to ease the pain rather than a cure-simply adds to the problem. It can only get worse. I'd rather that we endured the pain now and get back to constitutional government. When the inevitable happens, bankruptcy, the powers that be will give us the half-truth that free enterprise doesn't work. Free enterprise doesn't work when people are blessed by it to the extent that they forget the basics of free enterprise: personal responsibility and self-reliance.

From Time-Life's China's Enlightened Empire, "Had a traveler from western Europe been able to visit Kaifeng, capital of Song China in the eleventh century he would have been amazed by what he saw. In place of the rural world of illiterate barons and peasants with which he was familiar, he would have found an open city of broad streets, wide canals, and many trees, crowded with a shifting population of merchants, voyagers, government officials, and workers. Stalls overflowing with merchandise lined its avenues. Markets opened at dawn and closed after midnight. Vendors, hawking everything f rom toys and sweetmeats to horoscopes and hot water, vied for shoppers' attention, while signboards advertised all sorts of goods and services."

In Time-Life's A Challenge from the Church, "In eleventh century Europe, where much of life revolved around manual labor, warfare, and hunting, there was only one institution to which people could turn to find a deeper meaning in life: the Church. It was the guardian of high aspiration, the repository of spiritual truth. In practical terms, it had a virtual monopoly over education, running the only schools and possessing, in the libraries of its monasteries, most of the available books. Those few people who could read and write were almost invariably clergy; so when secular rulers sought administrators to prepare deeds or keep records, they turned to the Church."

"More vitally yet, it was to the Church that all people, however mighty and powerful, looked for hope of salvation in the life to come. . . However great the Church's wealth and prestige might be, though, there were real limits to its power. It had blossomed and flourished through the grace and favor of the mighty, and in the long run, its position depended on their goodwill. In terms of brutal realism, the lay magnates had the weapons; and in troubled time, they could use th em to enforce their wishes. . . The Church was to be an era of papal ascendancy that endured throughout the Middle Ages."

One learns from Time-Life's history of man, starting with the outset of civilization, that we've been drifting from authoritarian control to brief periods of individual freedom and progress back to authoritarian control. The dominant theme in 5,000 years of civilization has been the law of the jungle or might makes right.

Now at the threshold of an evolved self, in order to understand, we've got to take it step by step, which is what I've been doing in this story of my life and your life. I've been at it for seven years and it keeps coming down to this: we've got to look within for our answers.

Actually, the within and the without are the same. Unfortunately, we've simply blocked the within and looked solely at the external for answers. We've got externally invented gods, externally invented laws and governments.

From the universe surrounding our planet, the center of it all, what we've seen more lately, Earth, a tiny speck in an expanding universe, if Earth were wiped out it would make no difference to the universe, and much less our self to the universe. So, I say it is essential that we look within and discover who we are and what we're about. We have no idea. The physical self is in a place. But imagine yourself surrounded by the universe, anywhere and everywhere you relocate, and you and the universe a state of being-there is no place. This is your state of consciousness, as big or as small as you make it. It isn't the luck of the Irish that my life is as good as it gets. Change favors the prepared mind.

When I announced that I was going to write the story of my life, Siona's comment: "Oh, wonderful... this will be such an incredible gift!" How did she know? Somehow I got the idea that Siona was an Aquarian. She wrote that she was not. I replied: "We've been friends a long time, very special friends. You inspire me. I was either misinformed, or misinterpreted, or hallucinated. You appeared with me as an Aquarian."

"I was born with Aquarius on the rise. My sun sign is Virgo. I'm a child of the new age with a message. I'm going to write about the scary future we're looking at in Chapter XV. Hopefully, the right answers will result. By the way, writer of the future H.G. Wells was a Virgo with Aquarius on the rise."

I received this response from Siona: "And you inspire me as well, dear one. I think there's nothing mistaken in the message you received-we are both of that same era, and I think it makes sense that you'd see this."

The Gaia Community is one of the one on one movements that is going to transform the way people think. What the ancients taught, and, as well, what the cutting edge of science now teaches, connects with these movements. We are moving away from the authoritarian past and toward the inner self. The change now taking place is permanent evolvement into the human we were intended to be. There will be no return to the authoritarian past.

The Evolved Self

The news is that central banks the world over are lowering their interest rates. They are trying to prevent a worldwide economic meltdown. After Wall Street's 1929 crash, the Federal Reserve Bank, America's central bank, raised interest rates and caused thousands of commercial bank failures. That's what caused the Great Depression.

Commercial banks have to be rescued; free market trade must be maintained; politicians must be reined in; people must look within for answers. Central banks have started the ball rolling. It's a big order. It remains to be seen if it will be filled.

We think of assets as something tangible. We're shocked when we learn otherwise. After World War I, with the economy hot for a long period, with the stock market on the rise, everyone from the butcher on up were buying stocks on the margin-paying ten percent down and letting increasing values pay the other ninety percent. There was no tomorrow as far as they were concerned.

Everyone played a role in the Great Depression. The current problem is trillions of dollars in home mortgages that can't be paid. Betting on the come, people bought homes they could not afford. People loaned them money because they made a profit. Other people thought they could sneak a percentage of lousy mortgages in a mix they could sell to investors and no one would know the difference. Politicians were bought off by said people. We know better now; we knew better the last time it happened. Both times we fiddled with the fickle finger of fate and lost.

The last time it happened the government took on the duty of helping the jobless survive by an income transfer scheme-taking from those who could afford it and giving to those who needed the help to survive. It wasn't the best thing for the economy, but necessary. The economy stayed down until World War II's needs got factories running and everyone with a job, on borrowed money. What happens now in the event of war, in debt up to our eyeballs?

The essential element missing in a credit based economy is lack of control of politicians-people we elect and grant power to, with the understanding that they will protect and defend the Constitution. What they've done is to change the constitution, for one thing, to help those who can't help themselves, for another to help themselves remain in control. It's a vicious circle. They have done well by themselves. The American people have a permanent government, protected by the U.S. Supreme Court, which changes the Constitution to whatever it takes to keep the permanent government in place. The very worst thing we can do is to reelect those with experience. The only reason I'm going to vote is because McCain picked a running mate who lacks experience in Washington's fraud.

I believe that we keep coming back. A thousand years ago in the West, unless you were one of the few in control, you were an illiterate dolt at the beck and call of a cruel master. When you finally came up in the world, if you didn't pay your debts you went to jail. Against the odds, you came to America, the land of opportunity. You did well, so well, in fact, that you forgot your past. It all boils down to the fact that you cannot depend on others to do your thinking. So what do you do?

I've opened my mind to new ideas and many doors have opened. I'm doing well. I'm taking advantage of the many sources of information the individual has today. One source is Evan Harris Walker's The Physics of Consciousness, to which book I've referenced many times.

Looking back with my word processor's find and replace feature, I find this: "Quantum physicist Walker, from his study of the microcosmic, wrote in The Physics of Consciousness, "Look again at the three-squares in Figure 8.1. What we have constructed is the standard figure from the Pythagorean theorem. . . Thus we have a simple graphical way of showing how many photons (in any time interval) will pass through a pair of Polaroid filters at any angle-and also how many will be stopped."

"Walker is writing about his Bell's theorem experiment. He informs us that photons instantaneously communicate, and furthermore, communicate, once connected, no matter if separated by light years. It is an indisputable fact. It doesn't question Einstein's proof that the ultimate speed limit is the speed of light. It merely make the statement that there is more than the physical universe to consider."

Have you ever considered that you are a mind that creates matter? "It's not that we don't have lots of evidence of the makeup of the universe. Quantum physicist Evan Harris Walker, in The Physics of Consciousness, informs us:"

"Beginning with the myths of and superstitions of antiquity, we have followed a path of discovery into the modern age of scientific understanding, and we helped to open the door to new reams of science. . . We first see that objective reality is a flawed and incomplete conception of reality. We find that what we had thought was an independent and objective physical world is in fact contingent on the observer, on our combined consciousness, in a most basic way."

"We have found ways to take the measure of consciousness to study its contact with the functions of the brain, and to discover how the mind, through the agency of the will, effects matter and transcends the limits of space and time."

According to cultural historian Richard Tarnas' hard-angle observations of Saturn and Pluto, starting in November 2008, and lasting four years, the world is going into a disruptive period. According to my soft-angle aspect of Saturn and Pluto (Saturn trine Pluto), in Astrologer's Handbook, "this aspect gives the natives the ability to understand the laws by which subtle forces are organized, enabling them to use these laws consciously or unconsciously. . .If other aspects to Saturn and Pluto are also favorable and if the chart as a whole indicates occult leanings, the natives can have a vast comprehension of the nature of life and of the universe. . .They are able to work slowly and make fundamental and irrevokable changes in their own and other's lives. Often there is a sense of destiny or a peculiar karmic mission which they must fulfill."

There is no proof that this is correct. There is no proof that it is not correct. There is no hard evidence to support anything that is not physical. But we put people in prison when there is no hard evidence. We give ourselves credit to put two and two together and get four. Why do we rule out anything that doesn't fit what we've thought, without even considering it?

The Evolved Self

When an authority tells me how to stay in good health, or in any way to be successful, I think about it. Most of the time authority is wrong. I'm fair skinned. Exposure to the sun has caused five squamous cell cancers on my left arm and one on my right ear. I've had them surgically removed, and several basal cell cancers removed. I've been going to my dermatologist twice a year to get pre-cancerous growths burned off with liquid nitrogen.

My step-daughter gave me a jar of bath salts and a body scrubber to go with my jet tub in our new home. I scrubbed the dead skin off of my arms every time I bathed and noted that the skin on my arms took on a new vitality. At my last examination, with no pre-cancerous growths on my arms, I told my doctor what I was doing. She thought it was hard on my skin. She recommended that I quit. The skin on my forehead is sore to the touch. I've been rubbing my forehead with my finger tips. The roughness has disappeared. After a few minutes of rubbing the soreness goes away. The next time I rub the soreness is less. It's gone except in two small areas. The skin on my forehead is revitalized. I think I've solved my skin cancer problem.

Twelve years ago I was having chest pains. I could not walk a block without chest pain. My doctor told me I was a candidate for open heart surgery and put me on a beta blocker. Two years later we retired, sold out, bought an RV, and hit the road, spending a lot of our time in the national forests hiking. The chest pain went away. Against the advice of my doctor, I quit taking the beta blocker. I was having a problem of frequent urination. I was getting up two and three times during the night to go to the bathroom. Six months after I quit the beta blocker, I didn't need to get up once during the night.

Twelve years ago my left hip was aching when I walked. An X-ray showed that I had arthritis in my lower back. That problem persisted until I got my jet tub. It's mostly gone now. I'm walking without pain.

The building site for our new home was rough. I've done a lot of work. I've lost 20 pounds and my waist is 3 inches less. I've gained back a lot of my strength. I feel 20 years younger than my 83 years.

Last October, nine-and-a-half years after we took up full time RVing, Karen said she hated to think about living in an RV the rest of her life. I told her not to think about it because there was no way we could ever again afford a home. The price of real estate had doubled since we sold our home-as it turns out, because of the greed of lenders making millions by putting people in homes who could not afford a home. Their fraud upset the law of supply and demand. Were they thinking about those people they put in homes? The politicians apparently thought so for the decade it was happening. Now they pat themselves on the back for letting the taxpayers finance a bailout of the economy. Say the politicians, those poor people who bought homes they could not afford were taken. They should be left in their homes. The government should buy their mortgages and reduce their payments, again at taxpayer expense. It reminds me of my one-man taxpayer revolt and the reaction. To everyone, I was a bad American trying to get out of paying my fair share. The American people are brainwashed.

One week after Karen's comment that she hated to think of living the rest of her life in a trailer, we received a letter from the Veteran's Administration advising me that my claim for being permanently unemployable due to a World War II injury had been approved. I came home with my ears ringing from cannon fire and my hearing over the years grew steadily worse. It had been two years since I put in the claim. The benefits were retroactive. We received a large check and monthly payments that would allow us to buy our new home.

Writing my life story makes it easy to trace my progress over the years. In 1973, I wrote a letter to William Saxbe, President Reagan's Attorney General, claiming the income tax, as implemented, was unconstitutional. President Reagan had said as much. The President doesn't run the country. The bureaucracy runs the United States.

At the time, rather than a disabled World War II veteran, I was a taxpayer, the sucker who keeps the bureaucracy in the business of running our lives with an iron fist. The bureaucracy keeps its lawless power by giving people who don't work taxpayer money. The federal wheel of fortune came up on my number when I reached the magic age. I hate to mention this, it makes taxpayers furious to be told "I told you so," but with the system America has put in place it's natural that I would get a new home at taxpayer expense.

I would have preferred that I would have been left to keep the fruits of my labor, but it didn't happen that way. I had to wait until the bureaucracy decided it was time to give me my reward, the bureaucracy that left me without the bare essentials of life, with Congress' approval, for daring to challenge my tax burden.

Karen and I are in the perfect home for us, in the perfect place, and doing what we want to do, when we want to, 24-7. It's like dying and going to Heaven. Only this we're enjoying is man's heaven. It won't last another generation. I'm hoping and praying it will last until I go to the real heaven, but with my growing younger I may have to endure the inevitable bankruptcy of America along with my fellow Americans-when everything and every human in America becomes the government's to do with what it wills, and woe be unto anyone who doesn't like it. We're looking to government for our answers. We're ready for it to happen. We've seen it before. What makes anyone think it can't happen again?

It's easy to trace my life. It's all recorded. In 1975, I set out to reinvent myself, against the will of the establishment, using my own judgment. I fought taxes. In 1980, after three failures in marriage, I found the right woman to spend the rest of my life with. Everything since my departure with the establishment went right. In 1981, if anything could go wrong it did for eighteen years. Why?

The same as in 1975, in 1981 I was out of work and could not come up with an answer. But in 1981, I was not faced with financial worries like I was in 1975. I had the wrong mate in 1975. I had the right mate in 1981. The sea called me back. I departed Portland, Oregon for South Florida with my mate. It was an emotional departure, not a necessary departing. It was against good judgment.

My plan was to purchase a boat and sail to the Virgin Islands. Everything was going according to plan. I'd picked a boat captain to sail with me. His occupation was sailing boats to the Virgins to be used as charter boats. I had a contract with a chartering league in the Virgins to video tape the places charterers go and make  sales promotion presentations they could use to attract charterers.

The course the boat captain took to the Virgins meant up to a week at sea. We would sail east from Florida 400 miles and then tack south, carried all the way by the trade winds. I'd never spent a week at sea. My former two years of boating had been island hopping in the Bahamas. I wasn't looking forward to a week at sea. I was going fly Karen down.

A boating couple we met talked me out of my plan. They had sailed down the island chain that stretches southeastward from Florida into the Caribbean. We'd be heading into the trade winds. Rather than practical, it was an emotional decision.

We sailed to Georgetown on the southernmost island in the Exumas. Up to this point, the island hops were short---what I'd been used to. We waited at anchor in Elizabeth Harbor for three weeks, waiting for the wind to lay. My patience ran out. We motored into strong wind and steep seas 25 miles to Crooked Island and anchored. We were on the lee side of the island, out of the seas. The next morning we motored around the north tip of the island and southeastward, into the wind, to Clarancetown. The fuel dock was in water too shallow to carry us. I emptied two five gallon cans into the fuel tank and motored over to the fuel dock in our dinghy. The fuel tank would have held another five gallons, but I didn't bother. There was another fuel dock near enough.

A captain of a boat anchored near us decided to turn back. I had my doubts of going on. But determined, we headed on down against strong wind. It turned out that the fuel dock where I planned to refuel was on the other side of the island and no way to get there. At our next anchorage, a distress call came in on the radio that a boat had struck a reef nearby and went down. The next day we motored to the sunken vessel. She was laying on her side half submerged, the crew in a dinghy tied to the stern. They boarded another boat and we went on with my thinking it could have been us, and it was two days later.

We ran out of fuel sailing across the Caicos bank.  I was heading for the lee side of a small island to anchor when I ran onto a "boiler" (a small reef coming straight up from the bottom 30 feet down.)  We were stretching our luck. The sun was too low. the boilers could not be seen until you were on them.  If we had not run out of fuel we'd have been off of the Caicos Bank in a few minutes and able to sail the eight miles to South Caicos and fuel. 

We managed to be pulled off before the seas and rocks pounded holes in our boat. We were insured but the insurer refused to act. It cost us $10,000 in legal fees to make them perform. Our boat was finally delivered to us as good as new fifteen months later. We moved aboard and hung a for sale sign on Bold Venture II. Our savings were gone. We were working for a living.

Karen produced most of our income. My business ventures in an apartment complex and a one man video taping business didn't pan out. Our lives in Florida were stressful. With me, it was a constant battle with bureaucrats. Karen's job was stressful. With both of us in bad health, we decided to retire and sell out. We could make out by living in an RV and picking up part time work along the way.

For the first time in eighteen years, our lives turned from a hard time to a good time, all because instead of using good judgment, I made emotional decisions. At this very moment, the American people are in an emotional snit, and subject to making serious mistakes that might not be undone for no telling how long, if ever.

I wonder what kind of a world this would be if we looked within for our answers. What would become of the ego and drive for power? Would we not evolve into a larger self, in greater control of our lives? Why do we need authorities in control of our lives?

The Evolved Self

The physical self will remain unchanged, but the immaterial self is about to make a quantum leap. Francis Sakoian and Louis S. Acker report in Astrologer's Handbook that I may have come into being with a "peculiar karmic mission." After years of mind search, I've gradually come to know my mission. I'm the messenger of an inner source of energy that is beyond all physical forces. I'm one of many.

In order to make this discovery, one must think in terms of our state of awareness, a state without boundary; we set the limit. The Bible tells us in Genesis 1:26 that man came into being to make himself in man's image. What is man's image of himself? The Bible says man is the dominant life form on the planet. Man tells man he is in the image of "God." God is many manmade images. Take your choice. I've learned from quantum mechanics that God is a natural force. Classical physics wants God to remain a supernatural force. Classical physics maintains that quantum physics is trying to smuggle God into physics. Quantum physics has added consciousness to the mix; that is, the state of awareness, limited only by the individual.

We, individually, are in man's image, with powers we don't yet know. Let us first be aware that there is no other life form on the planet like us. While we function physically like other life forms, we are mentally far beyond all other life, which in itself tells us we are here with a greater purpose, and as time moves forward, with ever-greater purpose. We can now destroy all life on the planet. I keep coming back to the fact that I've looked within for my answers and doors keep opening.

After reading Edward S. Corwin's The "Higher Law" Background of American Constitutional Law, I had a bigger than life calling. I've been moving forward ever since. My bigger than life calling came at a time when astrologers and numerologists predicted it would come, in my forties.

Astrologers inform me that I don't learn for the sake of learning. I learn for practical reasons. My reason for learning the law was federal income tax. I believe it is unconstitutional, if for no other reason than its ambiguity. It would take a large boxcar to haul the entire income tax code. Who could know it all?  It's incredible that we are subjected to a tax this complex. It's even more incredible that the IRS is right unless the taxpayer can prove the IRS wrong in a court of law.  The income tax has become whatever the authorities say it is. The fact is that  you do not have a right to one penny of your income.  The IRS can put you on the street and no one knows. You are out of sight, out of mind.  I've been through the experience.

I have the right to challenge the income tax, and I did. Who can say I was wrong with a code that no one completely understands. I took the Commissioner of Internal Revenue to Tax Court, to three U.S. District Courts, to the U.S. Court of Appeals, and to the U.S. Supreme Court, all of this to no avail.

I took my court record to the news media. The IRS admitted in a front page story that it had been wrong on numerous occasions over an eleven year period. In court, the IRS was mostly right, and when wrong ignored the courts' orders---and got away with it. The story did not get a peep from anyone. My tax case made this clear: the United States is an out and out fraud. However, this doesn't tell us what we can do about it. As far as we, individually, know, we can do nothing about it but weep. 

The news tells you that you are being taken to the cleaners by the rich and powerful. When you read the story of my life, you find some very remarkable things happened after my bigger than life calling. Not everyone takes his tax case to the U.S. Supreme Court. Not everyone has made the IRS eat crow. Not everyone has saved seven lives including his own. Not everyone has found a soul mate after three failures in marriage. Not everyone is in excellent health at age eighty-three. Not everyone can say it doesn't get any better than this, not even those with fame and fortune. Not everyone can write a story of his life as remarkable as mine. The sheer weight of evidence tells us there is more than we generally know about being an American.

There is a lot more than the two candidates running for president know. I know we come equipped to cope. The candidates don't know that. I've done remarkably well with the United States against me and everything I stand for.  I come as a messenger. I bring you a message of peace.  As long as we allow external authority to have its way, we will have war. The scary thing about it now is that the authorities may leave man history written in the rocks.

Now that we've received our wake-up call, and America's taxpayers expected to take the excessive hit for gross incompetence and corruption on the part of officials and fat cats,  I tell you that you and I are the only way to peace. We must look within for our answers.

The Evolved Self

The Battle of Armageddon is ongoing. In America, we cannot profess publically who or what God really is. We're legally challenged if we dare to publicly reveal the "truths" upon which America was founded. Religion is being systematically replaced with secularism. I'm a secular humanist by definition. I promote human values without particular reference to a religion. Don't confuse secularism, a social policy that rejects religion.

Secularism is the result of man's inventions of God. Religion is a set of beliefs, generally, that include a superhuman God, ritual, and a special place one's soul goes when one dies. It's a ridiculous notion in our day. We don't go anywhere when we die, not anymore than we come from somewhere. We are in a state without boundary. The idea leaves the faithful in a mindless straightjacket-and duck soup for the egomaniac who thinks he has the ultimate answer for everyone. Unfortunately, egomaniacs have taken over America, aided and abetted by America's judiciary. America's next president is likely to be Barrack Obama. He does not allow his Christian religion to influence his socialist policy. He fully supports America's secular judiciary. He disapproves of the remaining two justices who adhere to the Constitution as originally intended.

Thomas Jefferson authored the Declaration of Independence, which placed God in charge of the law. Jefferson was a deist. He believed in the existence of God on the basis of reason and nature. He rejected the notion of supernatural revelation. Contrarily, the present U. S. Judiciary rejects the idea that the universe is here by intelligent design. To single minded judges, who can't see past the ends of their noses, it means religion. It can't be taught in public schools. Don't forget that Barrack Obama stands in support of those egomaniacs. It means we, the people, are denied our inalienable right to life, liberty, and property. A government entitlement the federal judiciary calls a preferred freedom takes precedence over individual income. A female genitalia has the right of freedom of speech. But a worker does not have the right to a dime of his income. One may not challenge this God-given right.

We don't know how much we are going to be taxed with Obama in charge. He is talking about a trillion dollars of new spending. What makes Obama trustworthy? His background does not indicate he's to be trusted. Bush senior said "no new tax," and then proceeded to raise taxes. Talk is cheap. I wish it were me debating Obama instead of McCain. He'd be looking for a job.

I offer you an infinitely better choice than either of the candidates for president. We are here at one with the consciousness of the universe. If the universe began with a Big Bang, then it should have expanded out of site by now, right? Either that or contracted back to its original ball. There is something more taking place we don't know. We know what the forces of the universe do; we don't know what they are. The latest scientific discovery: there is a non-local force beyond gravity. Bell's theorem is irrefutable.

If one wants to know the truth about how the universe works, he examines all the parts. He does not invent a supernatural and force all the parts to fit. He does not invent social policy and force all the parts to fit. It's an authoritarian co-dependency.

Quantum physicist and M.D., Dr. Evan Harris Walker, in The Physics of Consciousness: The Quantum Mind and the Meaning of Life, tells us that beginning with the myths and superstitions of antiquity, we have followed a path of discovery, but we still long for a god that we can all know.

Dr. Walker tells us that objective reality is a flawed and incomplete conception of reality. Quantum physics, in its study of the microcosmic, finds that the physical world is contingent on the observer. It follows that the god we find must be personal, and that we ourselves must feature in our reality. "Now we see the independent existence of matter and the absoluteness of space were false dogma." I keep telling you, you got to look within for your answers.

"But it has only been with the advent of quantum theory that we have discovered proof that we exist as something more than pieces of matter. In the development of quantum theory, the observer emerges as a co-equal in the foundry of creation. . . Consciousness, the substance of this new-found reality that defines the observer, has fundamental existence. It is the quantum mind that is the basic reality."

We are leaving Barrack Obama's flawed authoritative world, entering the Age of Aquarius, when the quantum mind is the basic reality. There is no denying it. Time waits for no man. If Obama's social policies are to be in charge, America will be left at the switch. There is nothing written that says America's permanent government is history's permanent government. Already, we're seeing the change in the current economic meltdown. Foreign investment is leaving. Obama is not going to end the downturn. With Obama president, and a leftist, big daddy majority in Congress, Obama will exacerbate the meltdown. Unless you and I change our attitudes-face the fact that there is no free lunch-the cause for liberty and justice will go to some other society. America will become another banana republic.

Chapter XVIII, The Real God of the Universe

If you are fearful of what is coming, I invite you to read the story of my life. The story of my life is an open book. We Aquarians are ahead of our time. We are communicators. We are creative, innovative, aggressive-willing to fight for what we want. We're aggressive, but we release energy creatively. When our energy is fully utilized, we are writers and musicians. I love being both.

Admittedly, we are impatient. Aggravations build in us. It gets us into trouble. But we Aquarians find our zest for living in being surrounded by beauty, harmony, serenity, and graciousness. We can be loving, affectionate, sensuous. We Aquarians need a pleasant home life to be at our best, but we love to travel. The call of the wild gets to me. We are born romantics. We can be exciting when everything is in place we need. We are intellectual. I'm stimulated by thinking people. With these people, I'm fun to be with. Otherwise, I've a tendency to nod off. I can't recall ever remaining awake through a church sermon.

We are free souls. But I can attest to the fact that we simply must have love with another to function as intended. Aquarians can be naturally attracted to work where they can be tuned into the needs of people. For me, the Gaia Community has done marvels. When in the right environment, Aquarians enjoy good health all of their long lives. I'm so blessed!

When I was forty-nine, I was having the repeating dream that I was on the back of a giant bird flying through a narrow winding canyon, terrified. I couldn't see around the bends. At the time, my 25 year business enterprise was history; my marriage was on the rocks.

Past generations had spoken to me, first in Corwin's The "Higher Law" Background of American Constitutional Law, then in the country law library. I'd received a bigger than life calling. I was David facing Goliath, only no one backed me-actually, Joe Crusader all by myself. It was either act or lose my independence. My marriage left me feeling I was in danger of being castrated.

One chirpy spring morning in 1975, at age forty-nine, I departed my old life and never looked back. I was determined to begin anew and build a better life. Three months later, it was past midnight, I tried the door on my one room apartment. I was locked out. You can't know the feeling if you've never experienced it. My take-home pay on my night boatyard job didn't pay enough to buy the bare essentials. The IRS had assessed me for taxes I didn't owe. I could have become a homeless bum begging people to take pity on me. I would have starved to death before I'd have asked for pity. My experiences only made me more convinced that there was nothing wrong with me. The wrong was in the world I lived in. If it was the last thing I ever did, I was going to prove the world wrong. With the help of those who came before me, I not only got what was coming to me in my divorce trial, but after an 11 year legal battle with the all-powerful IRS, the IRS admitted on the front page that it had been wrong numerous times.

In less than a year after I was locked out of my apartment in West Palm Beach, Florida, I was on the front page of Palm Beach Florida's Sunday Shiny Sheet. The caption under my picture informed the reader that I was the host of a Palm Beach bash. At the time, I was living on my yacht in a marina in downtown West Palm Beach, and at times cruising the Bahamas. On one occasion, while cruising off Palm Beach's coast, I heard, in my mind, cries for help and sailed straight to three scuba divers who got caught in an ocean current and were miles from their dive boat. They had been drifting on the current for several hours and were too weak to climb the boarding ladder without help.

On another occasion, I was returning to Palm Beach from Nassau with three sailing friends. We were caught in a violent storm, which I battled for several hours at the helm. Miraculously, we arrived at our estimated time of arrival. I steered us through breakers completely across the inlet. My sailing friends called it a miracle. During my two years on my yacht, I saved seven lives, including my own.

I took a career job in Portland, Oregon in 1977. In 1980, I found my soul mate. At the present time, I'm retired, living my retirement dream with my soul mate in the tall timber 30 miles from Mt. Hood. If life could be any better, I don't know how.

In the story of my life, the reasons for my success are made clear. For one thing, I looked within for my answers. For another, I didn't limit my thinking to what I'd been taught was the limit. In my life story, the reader learns about my good and bad experiences, and the why. The reader learns about my faith in the real God of the universe, and the false gods that cause misery in the world.

My readers learn that we are leaving the time of false gods, entering the Age of Aquarius. I was born with Aquarius rising. I'm here as the water-bearer, with the special karmic mission to make people aware of the power that lies within.

The Real God of the Universe

So now, after leading the nation up another dead-end street, the government answer is the same as usual: a shot in the arm. Displaying anger is no help. Now that we've got the politicians dead to rights, it is time to bring the hammer down on them, and I know how to do it.

We've been looking for external answers; the authorities are looking for our answers. It doesn't work. It's their answers. This is an unbreakable law of nature: God helps those who help themselves. The law of life, if you will, I learned in the school of hard knocks.

The present government bailout may be the right answer for the moment, but the long term answer is individual. We cannot expect government to do for us what the law of nature says we must do for ourselves.

Excerpts from a speech delivered to the nation when President Reagan was inaugurated to his first term of office:

"But great as our tax burden is, it has not kept pace with public spending. For decades we have piled deficit upon deficit, mortgaging our future and our children's future for the temporary convenience of the present. To continue this long trend is to guarantee tremendous social, cultural, political, and economic upheavals."

"In this present crisis, government is not the solution to our problem; government is the problem. From time to time we've been tempted to believe that society has become too complex to be managed by self-rule, that government by an elite group is superior to government for, by, and of the people. Well, if no one among us is capable of governing himself, then who among us has the capacity to govern someone else? All of us together, in and out of government, must bear the burden. The solutions we seek must be equitable, with no one group singled out to pay a higher price."

"So, as we begin, let us take inventory. We are a nation that has a government--not the other way around. And this makes us special among the nations of the Earth. Our government has no power except that granted it by the people. It is time to check and reverse the growth of government, which shows signs of having grown beyond the consent of the governed."

Neither of the candidates for president offers the right long term answers. They never will. Many who take up political careers go in with the idea they are representing the people. It doesn't take long for them to be trained to protect their own interests. If they don't, they don't remain long in office. The candidates for president are hand picked by the intelligentsia-people with the power to control the masses, people who have no doubt that they know better than we know how to live our lives. The candidates receive their campaign money, however much it takes from the intelligentsia to drive away all other contenders.

America's answers are simple. The authorities make the answers complex to confuse people. There is no better example than federal income tax. The simple answer is a constitutional amendment to do away with the income tax. The authorities have put many years into developing a code that does what they want done without the people knowing it. The only way to beat them is that the taxpayers revolt in mass. It's coming. The powers that be can't tax people enough to remain afloat. The alternative of forcing a change of course is bankruptcy, in which case the intelligentsia takes full control. Nazi Germany is an example.

The simple answer is a tax on spending. The more you spend, the more tax you pay. We now have the machinery to allow the working poor to buy the essentials in life without paying any tax. A tax on spending doesn't tax capital, the essential element in building a strong economy.

The reason the working poor can't get a foot hold is that their take-home pay isn't enough to exist. They must depend on government help. The law keeps them forever dependent on government. It's a shell game. The victim never knows which shell the pea is under. During most of my working years, I was self-employed. My tax burden prevented me from expanding. The rich pay less tax than I paid, thanks to the income tax code. I wasn't able to save the needed capital. Who do you suppose was behind that problem? America's economy is dependent on small business. A prosperous economy can afford to pay workers more. This is not what the intelligentsia says. It says it knows better how to regulate the economy. It wants workers dependent on its answers. It wants giant corporations and billionaires to put small business out of business.

Let's say I'm the C.E.O. of a giant corporation. I attribute my success to being shrewd. I've made it my business to play the system for all its worth. It might be considered immoral, but I've done nothing illegal. I blame others not so rich for not doing the same as I've done. Why should I share my wealth with people who waste their energies in nonsensical activities. This is the way the intelligentsia thinks. It is in control and will remain in control as long as possible. Our question: "How do I gain control?"

I can tell you it is the wrong answer to depend on politicians. My answer a long time ago was to give authority my middle finger and depend on myself. The record of what happened is there for you to read. I'm not rich and powerful, yet I have everything I want. I spend a great deal of my time sharing with others what I've learned. It's very rewarding. Had I have been shrewd, had I have become rich and powerful, my thinking would have been that of the rich and powerful. I'm certain it would not have brought me more to live for, more liberty, more happiness. To the contrary, it would have made me a slave to my abundance.

Which is better, free enterprise or socialism? The rich and powerful are in total control under socialism. The best thing that could happen for the rich and powerful is the bankruptcy of America. An example of what happens when a nation goes bankrupt is Nazi Germany.

God's law, if you will, is written in the U. S. Constitution; that is to say, my God's law, not man's inventions of God. My God is internal. The Constitution was written for me. It gives me inalienable rights, rights that can't be taken from me without my permission. My Constitution didn't work for me. It's all recorded. The United States, through the income tax, is lawless.

You read in the story of my life that I exposed myself to the Constitution at a time when I'd lost control of my life. After my exposure, I received a bigger than life calling, not from an angel from Heaven, not from the voice of God, but by internally knowing that I was here to serve-and I had something I could use, a document written for the benefit of the American people. I had the feeling that those who came before me were speaking to me and through me. Since my calling, I've done well.

The Real God of the Universe

My Conclusion

People are not getting it. From man's beginning, we've had magic men, people claiming to know more, and using all manner of devises to make themselves believable. Dependence on said magicians keeps people in a psychological straightjacket.

The more I write, the more I penetrate layers of phony truths that have been buried in the sands of time and accepted. "Are you fed up with bickering politicians, self-satisfied bureaucrats, and a government that never seems to address the real problems facing our country?" I read this question on the inside flap of Newt Gingrich's Real Change.

Gingrich's change is from the perspective of a man who has been one of the "bickering politicians" for many years, in itself a limiting factor. Gingrich brings to my attention "The Challenge from a Bigoted Anti-Religious Judiciary Asserting a Doctrine of Judicial Supremacy." When you know the history of religion, and the law, you know why. The law is based on reason. Religion is based on the supernatural. Gingrich missed the point. The Constitution, which officialdom swears to defend, says nothing about religion's supernatural. It is all about natural law.

I've referred herein frequently to my legal bible, Corwin's The "Higher Law" Background of American Constitutional Law. I'm reminded of Aristotle's philosophy in my legal bible: "By his conception of natural justice as universal, Aristotle is unavoidably led to identify the rational with the general in human laws. Putting the question in his Politics whether the rule of law or the rule of an individual is preferable, he answers his own inquiry in no uncertain terms. ‘To invest the law then with authority is, it seems, to invest God and reason only; to invest a man is to introduce a beast, as desire is something bestial, and even the best of men in authority are liable to be corrupted by passion. We may conclude then that the law is reason without passion and it is therefore preferable to any individual.'" Gingrich leaves the question of bigoted judges to be argued till the cows come home. The religious issue is a political snipe hunt.

The law has drifted down a river of legal deceit that defies reason and logic, to which I give people credit for having. Religion is man's many inventions of God, and too often the cause of war. In a TV presentation offering me the knowledge of the world's greatest scientific brain trusts, who are now close to discovering the fundamental reason for everything that is, their theory holds that in the opening moments of the universe everything was one. There was only one force. As it expanded the one force became four forces, gravity, electromagnetism, and the two nuclear forces. As science knows it, gravity it is a very weak force. Were it any stronger, the universe would have soon been drawn back into its original oneness. Gravity is thought to be as strong as the other forces but diminishes in strength because it goes through several dimensions before getting to the time/space consortium we know.

Bell's theorem maintains that the four above mentioned forces are surpassed by a non-local force. The latest scientific thought is that man's mind interacts with matter. In studying the microcosmic, some quantum physicists conclude that there is an infinite possibility dimension. Some quantum physicists have added consciousness to the mix.

With the latest scientific findings in mind, when I read the Holy Bible I get a totally different meaning than the church gave me. I'm empowered. Actually, the latest scientific findings have been with us since antiquity. "An idea, having no form by itself, but giving figure and form to shapeless matter, becomes the manifestation," asserted Plutarch(40-120 A.D). The astrologer Pythagoras asserted that numbers deal with human characteristics, figures deal with matter's characteristics. Using Bell's theorem in a lab experiment, along with the Pythagorean theorem, physicist Evan Harris Walker proved mathematically that photons communicate instantaneously no matter if separated by light years, making the statement that there is other than the space/time dimension. There is not a scrap of evidence that could limit us to what the world's authorities would have us believe.

We're on the Yellow Brick Road to see the Wonderful Wizard of Oz. Not good! We're going to wake up and find it was all a dream. What more can I say? My life is good. I must be thinking right.

Now that I've blogged my way through my life for the Gaia Community, I'm prepared to write an introduction. The story of my life is dedicated to this and coming generations. I'm a disabled World War II veteran, and grateful for the help the American people are giving me, but disturbed that those who follow will surely not be so fortunate unless real changes are made. Mankind is an endangered species.

The essential change is now available to put an end to disabled war veterans, and to bring the world permanent peace. The best scientific minds are close to discovering the reason for everything. The world's largest particle accelerator, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), referred to as the Super Collider, is intended to collide opposing beams of protons or lead ions, each moving at 99.9999991% the speed of light. The LHC was built by the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN), in Switzerland, with the intention of testing various predictions of the cutting edge of physics, including the existence of the hypothesized Higgs boson. The existence of the Higgs boson could explain how elementary particles, without mass, cause matter to have mass. In short, it could explain the why of everything. The result could tell science what the universe was a few nanoseconds (millionths of a second) after its birth. It is thought that the universe was one force. Everything was one. As it expanded, the one force became four forces: gravity, electromagnetism, and the two nuclear forces. The one dimension became several dimensions, one of which was the space-time dimension.

The LHC came on line on September 10, 2008, in the same month that German physicist Werner Heisenberg published a scientific paper on the uncertainty principle in 1925. September, 1925 happens to be the month in which I was born. Heisenberg's uncertainty principle became quantum mechanics, and now the LHC. With modern tools, we're about to know how all the parts come together to make the whole, even how the immaterial becomes material.

The LHC came on line one week before my 83^rd birthday. Nice birthday present for someone who questions everything. I predict a change so drastic that it will feel like we've come from sub-human to human. Rejoice! The Kingdom of Heaven is about to be explained in scientific terms.

We've come a long way since our ancestors first observed the movements of the heavens and attempted to make sense of it. According to ancient science, namely, astrology, we are now moving away from the Age of Pisces, the symbol of which is two fish swimming in opposite directions, moving into the Age of Aquarius, the symbol of which is the water-bearer to humanity.

 Plutarch (40-120 A.D.) reasoned this: "An idea, having no form by itself, but giving figure and form to shapeless matter, becomes the manifestation." It connects with, "And God said, let us make man in our image (Gen. 1:26). It connects with the ancient sages of India:

As is the microcosm, so is the macrocosm.

As is the atom, so is the universe.

As is the human body, so is the cosmic body.

As is the human mind, so is the cosmic mind.

Pythagoras asserted that numbers deal with human characteristics; figures with matter. All of the ancients' ideas connect with the latest science. One of the dimensions of the universe is thought by cutting edge science to be one of infinite possibility; we are observers creating reality. So, we are all part of the big picture, not by and through the supernatural: we now learn that we are here by natural cause. The Higher Law, of which we are part, is harmonious

Due to the configuration of the planets when I was born, we're told by astrology that I would be able to understand the law by which subtle forces are organized. The configuration favors those who work in the field of physics, the occult, magic, astrology, or systems of meditation. People with my configuration have good organizing ability. They are able to work toward fundamental change in their own lives and the lives of others. Often there is a sense of destiny or a peculiar karmic mission which they must fulfill.

People with my astrological configuration can be psychic. We can have a unique approach to life that makes us far ahead of others and "different." We can be inventive and original, and fiercely independent. We can express strong humanitarian concerns. We can be the forerunners in setting style and discovering new methods, showing the rest of humanity the way. We are not likely to hide our light under a bushel, says astrologer Jeanne Avery. My life story says man's law is our downfall-the cause of war, deprivation, human suffering.

I came to life at a certain time and place that tells astrologers all of the above. I've the choice, however, according to astrologers, to be someone else. In fact, I was not living my destiny until Uranus, my ruling planet, had transited from my time of birth to a position opposing itself, when I was in my forties. An opposing position meant the pressure for change. It is called the mid-life crises, and change I did.

My astrological chart gives me the sun sign Virgo and Aquarius rising. The famous writer of the future, H. G. Wells, was Virgo with Aquarius rising. The rising sign is an imaginary horizon where the sun rises. Since the sun is traveling across the world's surface at approximately 900 m.p.h., astrologers need to know the exact time of birth to determine the rising sign. My birth certificate shows that I was born in Houston, Texas at 4:21P.M.C.S.T. on September 17, 1925. Coincidentally, in September, 1925, physicist Werner Heisenberg published his scientific paper on the uncertainty principle which later became quantum mechanics, and now the construction of the supercollider. I'm truly a child of the new age, the Age of Aquarius. Interestingly, the United States of America was born Aquarius. Abraham Lincoln, known as the Great Emancipator of America's slaves, was Aquarius with Aquarius rising.

In the story of my life, the reader may determine how closely my life resembles the life astrology gives me. Subjected to the pressure of change in my forties, in 1975, when I was forty-nine, with a bigger than life calling, I departed my old life and set out to find a new life, a life that has served me well.

The philosopher Nietzsche asked if God made a mistake when he created man or did man make a mistake when he created God. When you read the story of my life, if you are open to the idea that anything is possible, you will read an account of the power available to the individual. Everyone who believes in himself and his power, with the means now of one on one communication, could force an amazing change on the world, a world now hanging by a thread. We have the choice of the Bible's Battle of Armageddon, or permanent peace.

The answer lies within us, individually, not in external authority. I invite you to read the story of my life with this question on your minds: are we all meat or individual parts of that great force when the universe was one?

Real Change never comes from the establishment. It comes from vigilant individuals. At the last presidential debate, neither candidate said one word about prosecuting the scurrilous frauds in government and Wall Street fat cats whose greed caused the current credit crunch. Of course they wouldn't. They have a quaint idea about being legal. If you are angry about it, and don't do anything, you, too, have a quaint idea.

I warn you, this is not what you want to hear, but bear me out, the good news follows. Sen. McCain's first remarks were about helping out the people who bought homes they could not afford. He's one of the good old boys who wants to redistribute according to his whims. Why should taxpayers help out people to are trying to live beyond their means? Should we all live the same, have authorities in Washington deciding who shall have what? How could that be good for the economy? Some people bust their butts to have something. Other's spend their time in beer joints and think we don't appreciate them. They vote for a guy who takes from hard working people and gives to them.

Sen. Obama has a list extremely expensive things he plans to do for everyone, including the slouches, if elected. He is going to cut 95 percent of American workers' tax, many of whom don't pay any tax, and raise the tax of the "rich." The evidence shows that he will collect less tax from the rich. Sen. Obama has not made it clear where the money to do all he wants done is coming from. He's a Democrat who is going to eliminate waste in government by growing government.

Having, for the most part, supported the "compassionate" conservative, President Bush, Sen. McCain doesn't want to raise anyone's tax. With Bush's tax cut, Uncle Sam has gone in the red double the deficit when Bush took office, all in an effort to keep the economy rolling. This includes the Democratically controlled Congress. Excuse me for asking this, folks, but isn't Bush's answer exactly what is being planned now by both candidates? We're going to spend ourselves out of financial trouble. You surely know better than that.

The American people are worried sick that they will not get their entitlements. The establishment, which does not demand personal responsibility from the irresponsible, demands personal responsibility from the responsible, as though they are somehow gifted, the irresponsible somehow "disadvantaged." And you believe that baloney? . Sen. Obama came from a "disadvantaged" background and Sen. McCain's privileged. We were not created privileged and disadvantaged, folks. That's man's law. Try as he might, man has yet to overcome the "Higher Law."

You want your entitlement. For an undeniable fact, the government entitled have more rights than those who are resourceful. Thank you for being so kind to this government entitled individual, but that kind of thinking is what makes third world nations

Sen. Obama and a Democratic Congress is the last hope of the American suckers' paradise. For a real change, how about fazing out the government pyramid game called entitlements, the thing that is killing the economy and bankrupting America. The candidates are both offering booze to alcoholics.

America's politicians have conned the American people into thinking America is one big hothouse; they twist values to keep us healthy and growing. Not to mention the runts already sucking hind tit, the American people are growing into fat hogs. The sad thing is that we're producing generations of future runts. Everyone will go hungry.

We learn that central banks the world over are cutting interest rates to nothing, at the same time cranking out paper money, all in a desperate effort to save the economies of the world. They've played all their trumps. What now, with economies going into the tank? Central banks are going to continue printing money and create inflation. It's the same as a tax. Your money buys less. The entitled get a cost of living increase. You don't get a pay raise because "the rich" are paying more tax. You are lucky to even have a job. The world has seen runaway inflation before. It produces ruthless dictators to deprive us of all rights. That's a permanent fix.

Now for the good news. Without much fanfare, the world's largest particle accelerator came on line on September 10, 2008. The LHC, it's called, built by the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN), in Switzerland, is hoped to prove the hypothesized Higgs boson, sometimes called the God particle, the element that caused matter to have mass.

By looking back to the beginning of the universe, God was oneness, theorizes the latest science. The transition took place in the mind of God-and the mind of man. (Let us make man in our image. [Gen 1:26]) In the beginning, asserts the Bible, God created the heaven and the earth; that is, God evolved into the universe we now know-we and God, one. So, take down your all-too-human trappings and get real. The lighted candle and praying to save our souls should instead be for deeper understanding of who we are and what we are here for. One thing for certain, we are not here to glorify authority.

The authoritarian past is in evidence with the liberal left's attack on Joe, the plumber, who dared to question authority. In 1973, I wrote my question on the constitutionality of federal income tax to the Attorney General of the United States, who sicced the IRS dogs on me. Eleven years later, after putting me on the street, the IRS, in a front page newspaper story, admitted that for eleven years it had been "mistaken." That admission did not get a peep from anyone. The IRS has the authority to make unlimited mistakes.

The U.S.A., the most powerful nation on earth today, is under the control of people bent on controlling Joe, the plumber-and everyone in the world who questions U.S. authority. The two candidates for president are both for bailing out the frauds whose lust for power and control brought America to its present economic meltdown. Neither candidate has said one word about prosecuting those who caused it all. Neither has told the American people where the money is coming from to fix things, so I'll tell you. It's coming from Joe, the plumber. You don't fix things by more of the same. It is money down the drain. Both candidates are for killing the goose that laid the golden egg.

I'd like to remind the American people of those who came before us, who tamed a wilderness and gave the world the greatest economy ever. I'm talking about Joe, the plumber. He and others like him fought for their independence from England's imperialism, fought for "one nation under God, with liberty and justice for all." The keepers of America's law gave one nation under God their middle finger. Power is blind.

In America, the law was king, but America's keepers of the law ruled that black people were no different than cows and mules. The same keepers of the law decreed that I had no right to question before them the constitutionality of federal income tax. With them it is the law of the jungle. Might makes right. It is the old, old story of power, corruption, misery and suffering.

The Roman jurist, Cicero, said to be the father of modern law, asserted that "we are born for justice, and right is not the mere arbitrary construction of opinion, but an institution of nature." The U.S.A. proves beyond a shadow of a doubt to be an institution of corrupt, power hungry men bent on usurping every right the individual has, knaves who know not what they do. The U.S.A., never giving me the right to one penny of my sweat, admitted to the world that it had lawlessly confiscated my rightful property-an eleven year IRS mistake that went before every court in the land and was rejected. It was corrected when I went public.

And now we are told that the bailout is borrowing to get the economy rolling again, the exact same story that George Bush gave the American people after the 9-11 attack. With double the national debt, investing our money in a lying, corrupt system, we're now in far worse shape. Don't let them put the blame on Bush. The authorities we've placed our trust in are desperately attempting to keep the system they created from self-destructing. They are all birds-of-a-feather. Be prepared for an unraveling.

The unraveling of my life forced me to search for better answers. The Making of New Age Man, the story of my life, is written in the stars. Believe it or not, it happened just as I've told the story.

My wife, Karen, checked out of the library The Secret on a DVD disc. The message in The Secret-making your thoughts your reality-verifies the story of my life, The Making of New Age Man. I'm now in my retirement dream home, doing what I want to do, when I want to do it. At age eighty-three, I'm in excellent heath, living with the right mate for me, with no financial worries. If life can get any better than this, I don't know how.

By looking within for my answers for the past 35 years, my thoughts have become my reality. I am that I am, just as God said in Genesis 1:26, "let us make man in our image," the image that God and I are one.

As a being of Power, and Love, and the lord of his own thoughts, man holds the key to every situation, and contains within himself that transforming and regenerative agency by which may make himself what he wills, James Allen, As a Man Thinketh.

"As a Man Thinketh" is in the book of Proverbs. "We have a new image of what it means to be a human being, how to think of ourselves as growing, evaluating, understanding, that we can connect with our God-self energy. You grow in a Virgo way. Virgo is that part of us that is oriented toward conscientious work. At first unconsciously-and everyone has a different way of reacting-the object is to bring into consciousness the reactions and determine whether or not the reaction is mature or immature-when we can step back and look at our higher self, when need becomes strength," said astrologer James Redfield in an audio tape to me. Redfield is the author of The Celestine Prophecy .

From The Making of New Age Man, "The LHC came on line on September 10, 2008, in the same month that German physicist Werner Heisenberg published a scientific paper on the uncertainty principle in 1925. September, 1925 happens to be the month in which I was born. Heisenberg's uncertainty principle became quantum mechanics, and now the LHC. With modern tools, we're about to know how all the parts come together to make the whole, even how the immaterial becomes material."

Speaking of the immaterial becoming material---"as a man thinketh"---it was my good fortune to be granted a monthly check last November from the Veteran's Administration for being permanently unemployable due to a World War II related injury. It enabled Karen and I to buy our dream home. We'd lived in our RV for nine years. Our new home has a jet tub. It has been a big help for my arthritis.

My arms, forehead and temples have been subject to skin cancers for the past 25 years, the results of too much sun on my fair skin. The skin on these parts of my body was rough and scaly. By using a body scrubber on my arms when I bathe I've revitalized the skin. It's smooth and the hair on my arms has come back. Messaging the skin revitalizes it. I've been messaging my forehead and temples with my finger tips. The skin on my forehead and temples is now as smooth as a baby's butt.

For the past seven years, with nothing better to do with my time, I've been thinking and writing about my life. New doors are opening. "As a man thinketh," instead of aging, I'm growing younger.

Look at the nations that have looked to government for answers, and now America. We're thinking about when we are old, how to survive; when we are poor, receiving welfare; that our health is a right. Government is our keeper. The American people are seeing a grossly incompetent, corrupt government drunk with its power. The economy is melting down. The American people are currently witnessing a divided America. By the American people expediently allowing slavery as a means of economic growth, we paid a high price, and remain paying a high price. What would our world be if we all looked within for our answers?

From Widipedia: "A self-fulfilling prophecy is a prediction that directly or indirectly causes itself to become true. Although examples of such can be found in literature as far back as ancient Greece and ancient India, it is 20th-century sociologist Robert K. Merton who is credited with coining the expression "self-fulfilling prophecy" and formalizing its structure and consequences. In his book Social Theory and Social Structure, Merton gives as a feature of the self-fulfilling prophecy:

"The self-fulfilling prophecy is, in the beginning, a false definition of the situation evoking a new behavior which makes the original false conception come 'true'. This specious validity of the self-fulfilling prophecy perpetuates a reign of error. For the prophet will cite the actual course of events as proof that he was right from the very beginning."

Why do so many Americans want to pass laws to make everyone do as they think? Speaking of Joe, the plumber, the symbol of free enterprise and coping, and the purpose of a caretaker government  to care for those who are lacking in purpose, If we would all think that today is the beginning of the rest of our lives-think what we want to do with them-if we keep thinking it, it will happen.  As an entrepreneur, like Joe, the plumber, coping with my situation, transforming myself according to my will, everything mysteriously falling into place,  were it not so, I would not be here telling you my life is as good as it gets.

Joe, the plumber, isn’t wealthy. He would like to keep what he earns, and he is not asking for help. He is willing to live within his means. Joe doesn’t have a plumber’s licence and he owes taxes. What does that have to do with the price of tea in China? With Barrack Obama leading in the poles, obviously, the American people are moving toward “spreading the wealth,” Obama’s stated plan—in other words, moving toward socialism. The move to the left means that perhaps a majority of the American people do not feel that they can cope without government entitlements. They dare not risk self-reliance. Obama’s plan to spread the wealth will force Joe, the plumber, accept what Obama wants to “give” him. Forcing people to share the wealth by law is dividing America. A house divided cannot long stand. Maybe someone could give us a really good reason to share the wealth.

You will never get the right answer from the establishment, so where is the right answer? If you listen to the American press, two backward hicks from the sticks, Governor Sara Palin and Joe, the plumber represent Senator John McCain. On the other hand, racist preacher Wright, known communists, terrorists, and anarchists, the former associates of Senator Barrack Obama, represent the future course of America. While the economy is coming down in flames, the American press represents the beast in us.

Barrack Obama promises to cut taxes for 95 percent of America’s working people and to raise taxes for those with incomes over $250,000, while promising to increase government spending by a trillion dollars. John McCain promises to cut taxes for rich and poor alike, and cut government spending, while promising to spend $300 billion to allow people who bought homes they could not afford to remain in their homes. Both Obama and McCain voted to bail out Wall Street. Neither candidate has been specific about spending cuts. Clearly, in the face of an economic downturn, both candidates intend on spending more than government collects in tax—spending our way out of recession, exactly what President George Bush did, and is still doing. The national debt is double what it was when he took office and the economy has gone south. The knee-jerk reaction is to change political parties. It’s like going from the frying pan into the fire.

The same reasons we are currently experiencing cause the Great Depression of the 1930s. World War II, not anything Roosevelt and the Democrats did, ended the Great Depression. Obama is asking for a repeat performance of Roosevelt’s New Deal law. He knows a good thing for politicians. McCain is a me-too guy. Both know that Washington has the ball and both are going to keep it as long as we, the people, allow it. a

If you could print paper that was accepted as money, and you wanted a new expensive car, or perhaps a fine new home, you could turn on your printing press and crank out the money. This is exactly what you are allowing politicians to do. You could make everyone pay for your new car or new home. That paper you have passing itself off as money states that you are responsible for all debts public and private. Therefore, if Obama wants to spend a trillion dollars, and everyone approves of it, he authorizes the FED to turn on the printing presses and print the money. In effect you are doing it. If you vote for Obama, you are the same as borrowing yourself into bankruptcy. If you vote for McCain, you are doing the same, but not as quickly.

When I set out to do my own thing my way, it was very hard. There was the time when I was locked out of my pad for non-payment of rent. At the time, I was working. My take-home pay was not enough to exist. Incidentally, my job at the time was the hardest work I’ve ever done. I was single with no dependents. Had I been married with children, I would not have had withholding tax taken out of my pay.

You don’t get the truth from politicians. The income tax does all it can to keep entry-level workers from ever getting ahead. The political answer is to keep the entry-level worker and down-and-outers depending on government handouts, either that or land in jail for taking what is not their’s to take.

You people voting for Obama know who is behind bars—mostly black people. Like a lot of black people, for a time my home address was my license plate. Blacks should quit calling themselves African-American. It’s not true. It’s making blacks inferior, people in need of a helping hand—no better than slaves. Blacks are as American as anyone. They have been taken by their own kind ever since carpetbaggers from the north descended on the South after the Civil War.

Who pays to keep the same kind of political answers in place? The richest, most powerful people in the world have bought all of America’s national politicians. It is their money that pays campaign costs. They want to bankrupt us, make us totally dependent on them. And they are getting their way.

How do they start getting control? Little by little, the richest most powerful people give us the idea that we can’t cope on our own. They did it by imposing the Holy Catholic Church on the West. They lost control with “The Enlightenment.” They caused the Great Depression and Roosevelt’s New Deal—grants in aid to individuals, the very thing that is now bankrupting us.

A political cure is the last thing those in control want. All politicians offer shots in the arm, their own pet ways of keeping us addicted. The cure is a do-it-yourself thing. I would start now fazing out government entitlements—Roosevelt’s New Deal answer. I would replace the income tax with a tax on spending. Both measures would greatly reduce the taxpayer’s excessive burden. It would replace years and years of manipulations to rip-off the poor and give the rich deductions. The income tax is a shell game, entitlements, a pyramid game, all together, the greatest swindle of all times.

If the single entry-level worker received his full pay, his purchasing power would go up. Instead, part of his pay goes in the federal coffer to be redistributed according to what elected officials want, not according to the individual’s need whose sweat produced the money. If the entry-level worker’s employer didn’t have to match his Social Security tax deduction, he could afford to pay the entry-level worker more.

If the tax on gain were eliminated, as it would be with the elimination of the income tax, producers could sell their products and services cheaper and pay employees more. The economy would get a shot in the arm. With a tax on spending, the more one made the more one spent, the more the tax. The rich would not get by law the a tax breaks they are getting now. While the economy boomed, the rich and powerful would loose their strangle hold. The poor would become independent.

Martin Luther started the ball rolling that dethroned the Holy Catholic Church. Martin Luther King had a dream of all of us being the same. Make his dream your reality. Get over it! I’m white. I’ve been victimized. I’ve been penniless and out of site, out of mind. Where there is the will, there is the way.

I can’t speak for anyone else, but while the economy is coming down in flames, by looking within for my answers, in the twilight of my life I’m living in peace and prosperity. My message is that we humans represent the super-consciousness of the universe. You have the choice of listening to the external beast or your own conscience.

I was born at 4:21 PM CST in Houston, Texas on September 17, 1925, which made my sun sign Virgo, and the fact that I was born at 4:21 PM, the sun rise on me was in the sign of Aquarius whose symbol is the water-bearer to humanity. I've been given to understand that I was materialized here by those who came before me for a special purpose.

One reads lots of theories that concern our lives, most of which are flawed.  My life experiences are based on the theories of the ancient sages of India to  the theories of the cutting edge of science, experiences that should concern all who feel they are not in full control of their lives.

September, 1925, is the month and year that physicist Werner Heisenberg published his uncertainty principle which later became quantum mechanics. Heisenberg was Hitler's atom bomb builder. Coincidentally, September, 1925, is the month and year that Congress made legal public inspection of federal income tax records. Which was worse, keeping in mind that we are all subjective in our thoughts, from the meekest of us to the mightiest.

After the collapse of the stock market in 1929, the Glass-Steagall Act (GSA) was enacted. This enactment was to ensure that a clear distinction was made between commercial banking and investment banking. The GSA was a strong barrier to fiscal irresponsibility and excessive speculation. The GSA was done away with by the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA) in November 1999, with Bill Clinton's approval.

With the deregulation, greedy, self-serving private predators, ambitious politicians, and citizens thinking they could live beyond their means brought the economy down in flames.  There you have it. We're not thinking beyond the end of our noses. The same kind of thinking people who win elections are giving you the news. The same kind of thinking people are in control of the wealth. The average American sucker is literally living on borrowed time. No matter who is elected, get used to the idea that you are not getting out of this political trap without pain. The longer the American people refuse to face this truth the more the pain.

And now, just before the November 2008 election, we learn that Saturn and Pluto are moving into bad aspect. Throughout history , every time this alignment has meant disruption. America is as divided as she was just prior to the Civil War. We have endured the politician's usual self-serving spiel ever since the Great Depression. The knaves are bankrupting the nation morally, spiritually, and fiscally.

Instead of giving the individual a shot in the arm, a repeat of the Roosevelt New Deal, now Barrack Obama's socialist deal, we need to give the economy a shot in the arm. But what choice does America's corrupt establishment give you?

What have the politicians offered? They all agreed that the solution was a bailout for the predators responsible for the collapsing economy. The easy way out for incompetent, corrupt politicians is to make the taxpayers pay a heavy, heavy price. It isn't going to work.

Let me remind you of the Nuremberg Trials after World War II. The remaining Nazi authorities caught were tried and convicted. Their excuse was that they were adhering to the law. Are you adhering to the law when you pay no attention to reason and logic fundamental to the law? Black's Law Dictionary under "lawful":

"Legal; warranted or authorized by the law; having the qualifications prescribed by law; not contrary to nor forbidden by the law."

"The principal distinction between the terms ‘lawful' and ‘legal' is that the former contemplates the substance of the law, the latter the form of law."

"A further distinction is that the word ‘legal' is used as the synonym of ‘constructive,' which lawful is not. Thus ‘legal fraud' is fraud implied or inferred by law, or made out by construction."

No, my friends, you are not adhering to the law. You are adhering to law breaking frauds who would just as soon see you left out in the cold to keep themselves in power.

The income tax amendment to the Constitution was allowed with a Supreme Court limitation. Knowing politicians, the Court, with the taxpayer's liberty in mind, asserted:

"Under the seeming exercise of the taxing power, the taxing statute is so arbitrary as to compel the conclusion that it was not the exertion of taxation, but the confiscation of property, or is so wanting in basis for classification as to produce such a gross and patent inequity as inevitably to lead to the same conclusion" (Brushaber v. Union Pacific R.R. in 1916), the income tax amendment would be invalid.

In 1946, a taxpayer challenged the income tax as confiscatory. The U.S. Court of Appeals asserted that although high, the income tax had not yet become "take." The court did not say, and could not say the income tax could never be considered confiscatory. Ever since the 1946 court ruling, the legal dictators on the bench have refused to hear the case of confiscatory taxation.

Your representatives in Congress have given the IRS the authority to take every cent of a taxpayer's income. The victim of a government snatch has only the courts to go to for relief. I went to every court in the land. Your representatives in Washington have authorized the IRS to make unlimited mistakes. You can't beat the tax collector by ordinary means. Your government has taken out all the stops.

By law, the IRS walked into my bank with a slip of paper with some printing on it, with not even so much as a signature on it, and stripped my bank account. The IRS can open your lock box and clean it out. They can take your home, your car, every last thing you have, down to your tooth brush, on the mere notion, with no proof whatever, that you owe income tax. In my case, the IRS took my bank account against a U.S. District Court order. The IRS is clearly above the law. Pray tell us for what worthwhile purpose is a U.S. citizen's property the United States property simply for the taking?

I volunteered my life to save our American way of life in World War II. Thanks to your representatives in Washington, traitors every one of them, they allowed the IRS to lawlessly take my effort to support myself and put me on the street.

Germany's Jews asked why nobody did anything to stop Nazi genocide? What's the answer to that question? Rest assured, the Nazi mentality is alive and well in the United States of America. You are dealing with a slow moving flesh eating monster. "Jack be nimble, Jack be quick." Your life is at stake.

In America's national forests are signs warning people not to feed the animals, the reason being that they become dependent on being fed. The same law of nature applies to humans.

President Franklin D. Roosevelt and the Democrats, during the Great Depression, overturned the law of nature, and the Constitution as written, by threatening its keepers with doubling the number of Justices on the Supreme Court, by putting activist judges on the bench who would rule for political justice. Roosevelt, the Democrats, and activist judges felt that it was government's duty to prevent mass starvation with massive individual grants in aid.

There were better answers, but granted, something had to be done to prevent mass starvation. A better answer would have been massive government projects and massive borrowing. That's what World War II caused. I came home from the war to a booming economy.

During World War II, workers paid the Victory Tax. The government withheld a portion of their paychecks. After the war, the Victory Tax became federal withholding tax. There was no emergency. The withholding tax was to pay for growing government dependency, against the law of nature.

The economy is the sole means of human survival. By self-serving misrepresentation, the powers that be brought about the current credit crunch. It was not the best answer, both Republicans and Democrats admitted, but both agreed to bail out those responsible for the economic meltdown. No, we didn't get the best answer. We got a put-off. The economy got another huge liability for future taxpayers.

Thinking back to Roosevelt's and the Democrats answer-massive individual grants in aid-from whence did those grants in aid come? People produce when there is profit to be made; when there isn't, they look elsewhere. Barrack Obama, who says he's going to continue with the Roosevelt legacy, will be helped by a Democratic Congress-with the economy in a tailspin, with an astronomical national debt, with an astronomical future liability on the taxpayers backs. Do you believe Barrack Obama? How is he going to increase social spending? Is it any wonder that the world's stock markets are falling out of bed? Investors are not stupid.

Your vote for Barrack Obama will be for more government dependence and against economic growth. Barrack Obama will not only increase social spending but cut your taxes. The answer of how he is going to do all of this is simple. He will borrow against the future by printing more paper money. There is no way to stop him and the Democrats from reducing the value of your money. It's the same as a tax. Obama will print money and hand it out at the expense of the economy. According to plan, America will go bankrupt.

If you know your history, national bankruptcy is not a pretty picture. The government will own everything, including you. What is Barrack Obama up to? Sen. Barack Obama and the Democratic National Committee filed a joint motion in federal court the other day to dismiss a lawsuit challenging the Illinois senator to prove he's a citizen of the United States. He may be a citizen of Kenya. At least a federal court has decided to hear the case. At any rate, with Barrack Obama president, he and his former associates-racists, anarchists, and terrorists who hate America-if they and leftist Democrats have control, America's military will be cut to the bone. The U.N. will have the largest standing army, and you will pay for it. Your earnings will be shared with the poorest nations in the world. With Barrack Obama in charge of America's future, America will soon be on the same economic level as Kenya.

If you want peace at any price, vote for Democrat Barrack Obama, but there are far better ways to peace. I suggest that you read The Making of New Age Man.

Luck

People are prone to think a mysterious supernatural force brings them good or ill in the shaping of events and opportunities. If good fortune shines upon us, when we see the unfortunate should we think "there but for the grace of God go I?" I question why anyone would think he is graced by God more than anyone else.

My father used to say, "I'd rather think the worst and be happily surprised than think the best and be disappointed." My father had a low opinion of his father and a low opinion of himself, which he passed on to me.

At mid-life, the thought came to me that by helping myself I could help others. I took it to be my bigger than life calling. Along with the misbegotten idea that "there but for the grace of God go I," Federal income tax put a thought in my mind. I have a low opinion of federal income tax; a high opinion of the individual. I don't think anyone is else is worthy of my effort, unless I choose to give away my personal effort.

Thinking of myself first is not the way I was taught. I was taught that I didn't appreciate all that had been done for me, the idea that were it not for God's grace, I would not be blessed with abundance. I was taught to think highly of authority and little of myself.

I challenged the constitutionality of federal income tax. A federal judge asked me why I felt that I should not pay federal income tax when everyone else paid. I have inalienable rights that I don't choose to share with others. No matter if I'm in the minority, I have a right to exist on the fruits of my labor. Federal judges think I'm not doing my part if I don't pay federal income tax, no matter what it means to me. Federal income tax put me on the street.

I wholeheartedly disagree with the United States and federal judges. When I challenged income tax, tt was my thought that federal income tax was unfair to me, therefore to others. This rebel had a cause. Had I not acted, my thought would have hurt me. I was right. The United States was wrong, period. I placed myself a higher authority than the recognized authority on what is mine, and launched my attack.

With the entire American establishment against me, I departed. I went to sea for two years and returned captain of my ship. After three failed marriages, I found the right mate for me. We've been happily married 27 years. The IRS, determined to make me pay dearly for challenging federal income tax, we battled in court for 11 years, in violation of court orders, to show me the IRS is above the law, the IRS walked into my bank and seized every cent in my checking account. I took the court record to The Palm Beach Post. The IRS publically admitted that it had made numerous mistakes. Law or no law, people better pay their tax or the IRS will make them wish they had. The American people's vote is irresponsible.

Some of us, myself included, are lucky enough to have the federal wheel of fortune shine on us, simply because certain government criteria says I am government entitled. In fact, government can't take away my entitlement. The IRS lawlessly put me on the street. We can legitimately ask federal judges why they frown on my demanding the right to exist on my labor, while they give their nod of approval to those existing on my effort. There is no law that allows anyone to take my existing by my own means and give to someone else. It's political justice, not law.

Whether it makes sense or not, to most people might makes right. They refuse to fight for their rights. I proved that might makes wrong. Was it my good luck that I've been rewarded? Luck favors the prepared mind. It is no one's fault but your own if your are not prepared to face the reality of your existence. I've proved that quantum physicist Evan Harris Walker, in his revelations in The Physics of Consciousness, is right, the United States wrong in its stand.

The universe is nothing like you've been taught. It isn't luck. We are all co-equals in the creation. By observing, you, the subject, make your reality. Anytime those with a grant of power place themselves above you, they are violating your rights under the Higher Law, the background of America's Constitution. In this respect, today's needs are no different than the needs from time immemorial. As history records, if you don't demand your rights, you are soon to have no rights.

To do for one's self at the expense of others is wrong and wrong will be done to you. A government that does for itself at the expense of the individual does not long remain, nor will those who depend on wrong to others. Is it bad luck or ignorance of the Higher Law? The Higher Law is working its will. A great disruption is beginning to take shape.

It's a scientifically proven fact that we are part of the fabric of the universe. Every path we take leads to the conclusion that there is a supreme consciousness. Consciousness orders and shapes time and space from random events. Science has this new-found reality: the quantum mind gives one the ability, with the will, to accomplish anything.

Notwithstanding lawless tax collection authorities' attempts to rein me in, by thinking of myself first, and that it was good for everyone, commenced to change for the better. Good luck favors the prepared mind.

The author of The Physics of Consciousness: The Quantum Mind and the Meaning of Life, M.D. brain specialist and quantum physicist Evan Harris Walker asserted in his book, "Matter, objects-a physical domain exist that is governed by immutable laws. But these laws leave open a range of happenings that are left to the selection of the mind. Behind this selection is the will. The will works much like a communications channel that links all of us to a common control center."

Is it luck that makes some rich, others poor, or is the human will that brings to some abundance and the lack of it to others? Indeed, is it not human will that makes Sen. Barrack Obama want to be president of the United States? Is it not the lack of it that makes people want to vote him into office?

Sen. Obama's plan calls for cutting the tax of 95 percent of the American working people, and if they pay no tax to pay them from the taxes collected from others. He plans to raise the tax of those earning more than $250, 000 per year. Nothing is new in his plan. It's the same redistribution of wealth that has been in place for the past 70 years. It is the will of people that is allowing the perpetration a political shell game, politicians linking all of us to their made in the U.S.A. control center-Washington, D.C.

It is the thinking of many that through no fault of their own some people have little or nothing, while others, through greed, have the lion's share of the wealth. The thinking is flawed. I know hard working people who never have anything because they have bad habits. And given time, instead of kicking their bad habits, these kinds of folks lead to dependence on government. Many of the rich are charitable. It takes money to start a business enterprise. Were it not for capital, there would not be jobs for workers. To raise the taxes on the "rich," when the rich already pay too much, is killing the goose that laid the golden egg. Besides, the really rich and greedy, by buying politicians, and politicians' manipulation of the tax code over the years, allowing the really rich and greedy to pay a smaller percentage of their incomes in tax than do the poor, Sen. Obama's motivation is self-serving. If he were honest, he would be for getting rid of the income tax and replacing it with a tax on spending, with no tax on basic necessities. He is not honest with himself because he does not have the background of honesty. It can be predicted that the American people will not demand a change. They will continue to make do with the present tax fraud until there is no choice left.

Astrologers place me under the rule of the planet Uranus, which takes 81 years to orbit the sun. That means when I was in my forties Uranus had moved from the time of my birth to a position opposing itself, meaning that in my forties I would be under pressure to change my life. With my business career on the rocks and my second marriage over, and the income tax unjustly taking from me a tax on non-existent income (in the form of capital gains during double digit inflation), I departed, at first to pay a high price. I've had an experience with the tax collector Sen. Obama has not experienced. Without experience, Sen. Obama is not informed of the consequences of the income tax.

I went to sea and emerged two years later captain of my ship. When everything should have gone wrong, everything went right. The Higher Law was working for me. It is not working for Sen. Obama. Ironically, the Higher Law, still working for me now, thanks to the redistribution of wealth in the U.S.A., has left me right where I want to be. So dream on. By voting Obama into office you are helping me.

This redistribution scheme is a pyramid game. It is not going to last. Believe it or not, with Saturn in unfavorable alignment with Pluto, going back to Attila the Hun's conquering of the Roman Empire, says distinguished philosopher and cultural historian Richard Tarnas, radical change is going to take place over the next four years. There will be much pain and suffering

We're in the transitory period that precedes quantum leaps. The light at the end of the tunnel, as we enter the Age of Aquarius, is a new cosmic horizon coming into view that unites religion and science.

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC), built by the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) to test various predictions of high-energy physics, including the hypothesized Higgs boson, called the God particle, lies underneath the Franco-Swiss border near Geneva, Switzerland. It is funded by and built in collaboration with over 10,000 scientists and engineers from over 100 countries as well as hundreds of universities and laboratories.

It is theorized that the LHC will produce the elusive Higgs boson, the last unobserved particle among those predicted by the Standard Model. In any event, the discovery or failure to discover the Higgs boson will tell science a lot more about the makeup of the universe, and as it affects us. In the future, we will know much more about the human mind and its power to cope. The individual will be in the driver's seat. We will be independent and self-reliant. Politicians with plans like Sen. Obama's will be history.

When questioned on the practicality of raising the capital gains tax, Barrack Obama indicated that his concern for fairness outweighed practicality.

When voting for or against Supreme Court justices, Barrack Obama's concern is not so much the judge's qualifications but more of his ideology. It is likely that the next president of the United States will put three Supreme Court judges on the bench.

Speaking on the ideology of judges, Chief Justice Earl Warren was Barrack Obama's kind of judge. He wrote the majority opinion in the case of Flast v. Cohen. Some New York taxpayers challenged the state court's opinion on giving taxpayer money to churches. They maintained it was unconstitutional.

The government argued that taxpayers did not have the right to challenge the spending of tax money. The Warren Court disagreed. But the evidence showed that the individual taxpayer consequences were minimal. It was judged by the Warren Court to be fair to continue giving taxpayer money to churches.

In my case, the IRS had ignored the income tax code and ignored court orders. The IRS deprived me of my right to exist on the fruits of my labor. I took my case to the U.S. Supreme Court. It was dismissed without a word. It is all in the court record. One taxpayer's deprivation of rights, under Barrack Obama's idea of fairness, is not reason enough to change the ongoing policy. If the consequences are minimal, it is fair to lawlessly put a taxpayer on the street. The fairness issue comes down to, "in light of today's needs" the powers that be decide what is fair and unfair.

Barrack Obama's reasoning comes down to the fact that there are more poor people than rich people. Rather than an issue of fairness, it is how to put himself and like-minded in control. When you remove your prejudices and self-serving thoughts, what you see in Barrack Obama is what you are going to get when he is president of the United States. Under the Higher Law, the law will revert back to the law of the jungle.

The cutting edge of knowledge has it that in the beginning of the universe all forces were one, all matter was one. As it expanded more forces and different things developed. All paths lead to the conclusion that in the beginning there had to be a super consciousness to which all that is connects.

Although there are immutable laws of the universe that can't be broken, there are happenings that come from the minds of men. We are beings of intelligence, in control of our own thoughts. We are personally responsible for our situations. We make ourselves what we will.

A voter in favor of Obama informed me in a comment that I'm a religious rightist. The religious right has called me the work of the devil. However, if we accept the above scientific premises as truths, why would we look externally for the truth, for instance that God is in a place called Heaven? We see the external. We humans give form to shapeless matter. But by looking externally for our individual answers we make ourselves incapable of personal responsibility and self reliance. When we individually depend on government to distribute the efforts of society, we are giving up our most valuable asset, the native ability to cope. We are telling ourselves that society is responsible for our well being; or that God in Heaven is responsible for our well being. We've been taught to think this. So, we've got those who depend on godless government, and a nation divided by insane thinking.

When you vote, think about the latest scientific discovery. Think of the change that is coming. Think about the fact that John McCain, whatever else he is or is not, as a prisoner of war endured the brutal treatment of the North Vietnamese for six years. They never broke him. He learned to appreciate his freedom to be what he was, an American who believed in individual rights and responsibilities.

Barrack Obama, on the other hand, in his youth, was faced with not knowing who he was. He chose to be an African American. Although raised by white Americans, he didn't feel like one of them. In reaction to what was forced upon black people, Obama chose to associate with terrorists, extremists, and racists bent on changing society by force. He had a bigger than life calling. Do you know Obama now? You know his public image. He insists on being fair. Why should the rich have so much and the poor so little? You know that Obama wants to do for you what he feels that you need, and certainly what he feels black people need, to be fair. In my opinion, black people need Obama like a hole in the head. He wants to spread the money around, make people dependent on government. It's no different than white slave owners in principle. Obama believes that our health care is a right. The polls indicate that retired people, like me, depending on government entitlements are heavily in favor of Obama. What is it going to be when everyone in America has government paid health care? Medicare is broke now. From whom is a trillion dollars of new spending coming? Obama's idea of fairness is like Jesus feeding the masses with a couple of fish. Is Obama a miracle man? If you believe in the second coming of Christ, vote for Obama.

I'm voting for John McCain. I love my freedom. I don't want to leave this life with the future I see coming. With people like Obama in control, people who think they know better what we need than we ourselves know, we've history as the evidence of what he brings us. With leaders like Obama, societies have come and gone.
