Who Elected These Guys?

This week’s election is naturally the nation’s main focus. What will an Obama Presidency mean for your investments, taxes, career, family and future? Is there any hope for America after 20 years of Bush/Clinton/Clinton/Bush/Bush? That’s a knockout combination of punches if there ever was one. No mas, please.You likely know I didn’t vote for the Demopublicans. Each major party demonizes the other and then goes about its business of further indebting us, stripping our liberties and dumbing us down. Like at Windsor Castle, the guard changes but the leaders inside remain in charge.

Others can focus on what the recently elected candidates will mean to you.

This article is going to focus on the unelected.You know… those people and organizations that have their grasp on America regardless of the revolving figureheads.

The Federal Reserve elbowed its way upon the scene in 1913 despite the Congressional mandate to provide our money without profit motives. The IRS, not coincidentally, followed in the Fed’s footsteps and is just as unconstitutional. JP Morgan was one of the influential parties behind the scene that foisted the Fed upon us. They remain an “unelected” power broker to this day. Now there is some staying power!

JP Morgan/Chase is also playing an instrumental role in the ongoing bailout and nationalization catastrophe. They are the global leaders in derivative creation and are always listed amongst the “usual suspects” in market manipulation and precious metal suppression schemes.

Let’s take a brief moment to look into what is called the Fascist Business Model. When you hear the term fascist, you commonly think of WW2, Hitler’s Germany and Mussolini’s Italy. That war was fought to end fascism but all it accomplished was to rid the world of several particularly nasty fascists. The fascist business model is alive and well and threatening to usurp the last vestiges of individual American freedoms, Is Fascism in Fashion?

What are some of the features of the Fascist Business Model?

    Central economic planning and interventions Key alliances of businesses and state Control and regulation of all parts of the economy Corporate welfare as national policy The government (through taxpayers) bail out failed businesses Taxpayers don’t benefit from the corporate contributions Government subsidies and protectionism for favored entities Cronies rotate between the government and key corporations Government, elitist entities and corporations reign over the individual Income transfers via taxes or policies

Please note there is a distinction between outright fascism in all areas of government and the Fascist Business Model. Unfortunately, there is also a lot of overlap. Any country that runs a Fascist Business Model has the underlying purpose of growing government profits and overall control at the expense of lesser connected companies and individuals. These abuses are exactly what the United States Constitution and Bill of Rights were designed to prohibit. The Constitution demands that government serve the people. Individual property and personal rights are explicit.

Fascism has an end goal of tyranny. That is the clear concern when fascist tendencies show up in innumerable aspects of government. I am more concerned about these overall inclinations than exactly which puppet now holds the reigns (pun intended).

Other terms associated with economic fascism are: planned capitalism, corporatism, economic fascism, industrial policy, collectivism, interventionism, crony capitalism, oligarchy, mercantilism and protectionism. The overall concept is much more important than any of these labels.

Now, with all this in mind… let me ask you a pointed question. Which of the following entities are scheduled to leave power along with George W. Bush … JP Morgan/Chase, Goldman Sachs, the Federal Reserve, World Bank, Council on Foreign Relations, IMF, Rockefeller Foundation, Ford Foundation, Bilderbergers, Rand Corporation, Halliburton, Carlyle Group, Bechtel or DuPont? Sure, the pecking order might be altered according to the new President’s personal preferences (campaign contributions) but nothing else will change come Inauguration Day.

You can check for yourself in the coming weeks as President Obama’s Cabinet is announced. Do a Google search with the various appointees and the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR). Don’t be surprised if someone calls out “bingo”.

Fraud and corruption inevitably become the centerpiece of any marriage between government and business. You can look at Enron, Bear Sterns, Lehman Brothers, Fannie, Freddie, AIG or the presently surviving big banking entities. Here are your prototypes.
Did I mention the US government is stocked with Goldman Sachs appointees, starting with Henry Paulson? Some call it “Government Sachs”. Make sure you slam the door when they come calling to “help” you.

If you like Homeland Security you’ll love what is coming your way in the economic markets. Power is always consolidated out of chaos.

Michael Chertoff

That smile is enough to turn a terrorist into a priest. Will Henry Paulson be the first Economic Czar to ‘smile’ upon us? Is he already? We’ll check the results later for the coming economic wizard.

The Fascist Business Model is a polar opposite to the free markets most people claim we have. Capitalism cannot function with dishonest money and managed markets.

There are a couple of other items heading your way on the US agenda that you might want to watch closely. These all should be filtered through a wary eye for fascist plans. Health care is set to undergo a face lift. They wouldn’t dare consolidate corporate and government power in medicine, would they? Would the elitists venture to use any type of crisis to further a foreign agenda? The auto and airline businesses are also ripe for the picking. Is a new currency on its way as the dollar heads towards its inherent value? The fascists are likely licking their chops with all this turmoil coming down the pike.

Why do the terms “martial law” and “suspense of Constitutional government” keep coming up? Can we escape bank holidays? And what is with all the widespread “detention centers” in the US? Surely they’re not for outspoken Americans…

The whole idea behind collectivism in general and fascism in particular is to make citizens subservient to the state and to place power over resource allocation in the hands of a small elite.

Thomas J. DiLorenzo, Economic Fascism

You think they want to take this thing global? Celebrate or commiserate this election if you will, but make sure you look macro in the coming months and years. Conditioning with economic fascism might just prepare the masses for the coming power grabs.

The unelected powers are far more important than the recently elected. Who is watching them?

Live Resourcefully,
