Mr. T Posted December 14, 2010 Report Share Posted December 14, 2010 Who is Lying? Have you noticed the latest sound bites coming from the punditry in the corporate mainstream media? Here is the latest wisdom flowing from the lying mouthpieces of the ruling oligarchy (Wall Street, Washington DC, Mega-corporations): The economy is recovering and employment is growing. Consumers are deleveraging, saving and using cash for purchases. Retailers are doing fantastic as consumers increase spending. These are the three themes being proclaimed simultaneously by the mainstream media. Every time I hear these themes proclaimed, I want to shout out like Joe Wilson – “YOU LIE!!!” How can consumers be deleveraging, saving and increasing spending at the same time? Let’s examine the facts to see who is lying. The fallacy that the economy is recovering and employment is growing can be put to rest by an examination of the BLS data accessed here: ftp://ftp.bls.gov/pub/suppl/empsit.cpseea1.txt. The number of Americans employed over the last few years is as follows: 2007 – 146.0 million 2008 – 145.5 million 2009 – 139.9 million 2010 – 138.9 million It seems there are 7.1 million less employed people than there were three years ago. Contrary to the spin from the White House, there are 1 million less people employed today than during the horrific 2009 year. Luckily, another 6 million people left the work force, or we’d really have a problem. The truth is that if the government actually counted everyone in the country who wants a job, the unemployment rate is not 9.8%, but 23% and it continues to rise.

calfoxwc Posted December 16, 2010 Report Share Posted December 16, 2010 T, it goes back to Alinski's "Rules for Radicals"... and Cass Sunstein's nutjob book "Nudge" It doesn't matter what they say or do. Lies are great ways to manipulate people who don't pay attention, or just want to be a part of the aggressive movement. Like the German people - so many of them bought into the bs that Hitler dished out. They bought it with glee. Until the hammer came down, and it was too late. There are a lot of these revolutionaries who will lie because it works to help them get votes, get power, get great wealth, get higher positions in the aggressive movement. I worry that we are headed for mass unrest and violence, initiated by those who willingly believed the Dems' lies of "economic equality" for all. GB is now paying the price for those false promises of permanent making good on "entitlements". And France, and Greece... The socialist theory is a complete, bogus one. It only pretends to work, despite all the loss of freedoms, ... then the money runs out. And then, martial law to restore order. You cause the problem, so you can use the problem as a justification for attaining unlimited power. The Germans learned dishonest propaganda from some expert populace manipulator/propagandist, Bernaise, however you spell his name. And true to form, Obamao lied to get into office. If he had told the truth the whole time of what he was going to do, and how he was going to do it... he would have lost the presidential primaries in a huge way. Hence, the record setting "present" votes... and the fluff platitudes, that let a lot of peope interpret the platitudes in their own understanding. It got votes. But now the lies are out in the open.

calfoxwc Posted December 16, 2010 Report Share Posted December 16, 2010 Which, in Heck's mind, surely means that the economy is perfectly healed by Obamao's magic twanger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
