Gold Paper and our enslavement in a world of perpetual war by Ken LaRive











“Know thy enemy.” was written in The Art of War, and “If you know your enemies and know yourself, you will not be imperiled in a hundred battles... if you do not know your enemies nor yourself, you will be imperiled in every single battle.” With this in mind I give you your true enemy. An enemy who works steadfast and unrelenting inside of the folds of our country, and outside the boundary called rule of law. We see their work in the light of day... that which was scientifically prepared and carefully presented in increments for us to digest with deceit... in the dead of night.  Their power is so formidable, their intelligence and insight so pronounced, they can appear as our very best partner, while undermining the very structure and fabric that identifies all future paths for our nation, by lies and deceit. I give to you, The Federal Reserve System. -Ken LaRive, 1999. 



104 years of slavery...


Long ago... so long ago it now seems more of a myth, there was a country called The United States of America.  It was a land of vast resources, a land of opportunity, a land of Liberty, and a land of dreams. People from all over the world came here, oppressed and enslaved by totalitarian church states, and some so poor they worked as indentured servants for seven years, just to get the price of passage...



All that changed just 104 years ago.... And though many dates are important to us as a nation, with some living on in infamy, no other has more profound implication to our nation than the date, December 23, 1913.



Until that date, we had a country who's Congressional Statesmen, most overwhelmingly, adhered to our Constitution and Bill of Rights. And though there were men in the folds of our nation who wanted to change us, to help international entries to gain control of us, our constitution was virtually intact, (but you must study the year 1871, the year we became incorporated), as laid out by our founders. For all intent and purpose, both Liberty and our National Treasure, has been stolen.



Of all of the stipulations of that mighty document, our Constitution, one element was thought to be primary to our amazing success, Article 1, Section 8, Paragraph 5. If you have not read the Constitution, you are doing yourself and your children a great disservice. It is the veritable key not only to unlocking your dreams, but a key to the very shackles you find yourself in today. Shackles, that you polish by the threat of a gun... “Congress shall have power to coin money, regulate the value thereof, and of foreign coin, and fix the standard of weights and measures.”



Right after that is another very profound clause, found in the same section 8. It stipulates that Congress has the power to “punish counterfeiters.” So with a “Once Upon A Time” story, I'd like to explain to you just what happened...




A traitorous Congress...



A few men, men very similar to those who hold office of power on both sides of the isle today, now called Neocons on the Right, and Progressives on the left, are virtually indistinguishable. Indistinguishable, because both are bought and paid for by the same lobby...  And most all, almost to the last man, have done everything for their specific agendas, at the veritable expense of our Constitution and Bill of Rights, as the NDAA and Patriot Act will attest. But just as most Americans have not read the Constitution, so too have they not read these manifestos of slavery.



The lost letter... and the invisible government...



In a letter found in the personal effects of my long deceased father-in-law,  Mr. Joseph Makazitch, from a man named Wickiffe B. Vennard Sr., National Chairman for Americans for America, (1968), there was an amazing historical revelation that stimulated me to learn more: “A traitorous Congress, led principally by Senator Nelson Aldrich of New York, kin of the Rockefeller clan, and one Carter Glass, Senator from Virginia, unconstitutionally- (because this Act constituted an illegal amendment of the Constitution) -sneaked through Congress just two days before Christmas in 1913, when many in that body had gone home for the Holidays, The Federal Reserve Act. The Federal Reserve Banks, a system owned and operated not by the United States Government, as many have been led to believe, but by a group of private Rothschild and affiliated bankers sent here from Europe for the express purpose of gaining control of this Nation's money system, just as they had done in every nation in Europe with the exception of Czarist Russia, up to that time, and involved that continent in war after war. “



The Banking firm of Kuhn, Loeb Company, sent Paul Warburg to America from their office in Hamburg, Germany, to become the chief  “engineer,” implementer, and spokesman for the newly proposed system, and voila, was appointed first Governor of the Federal Reserve Board.  Yes, of course, there were those who emphatically opposed it on principle, and they fought this bill on the floor of Congress. In the middle of the fray, that goes on to this very day, one voice stood out as a loyal Constutionalist, Congressman Lindbergh of Minnesota. He said: “This Act establishes the most gigantic trust on earth. When the President signs the Bill, the invisible Government by the Monetary Power will be legalized... The people may not know it immediately, but the day of reckoning is only a few years removed... The people must make a declaration of independence to relieve themselves from the (this) monetary power... This they will be able to do by taking control of Congress, the division of Congress into political parties is a crime...” I had to read this several times...



Since that bill was signed into law by President Wilson, this nation has been sliding down a slippery hill- The involvement of two World Wars, and from that time a barrage of so called “police actions,” and the reality of today is a heading to a “One World Government.” War is very profitable for the Military Industrial Complex, and there is no end in sight. Without a doubt, if we the people can not find the means to curb this domineering power, all will be lost. Well, read on, there is indeed a solution...





Today we are being primed for war, by fear and hatred, and there are no means for the average person to reason it out. Promoted by a media dominated and controlled by these mega-corporations, new enemies are being created and destroyed in a never-ending process, and with it our our national debt is the virtual fulfillment of Limburg's prophecy. He warned us, as so many others along the way tried to do, and today the Federal Reserve prints money out of thin air just to to pay for the interest on that debt... And since this is not taught in school, and the new American mindset is the never ending need for government involvement in every aspect of their lives, no declaration of independence seems evident at this time. 



Still, a few are questioning why, for instance, that our borders are not secured, or how UN mandates are said to now trump what is left of our Constitution, and the answer is a simple one, though most disconcerting for a Libertarian.



You see, it is designed that way, without a doubt, as paying for a fence and security is not in the best interest for a power structure who wants to bring the entire world under their dominate control, a New World Order as it were. And, as they know well, American sovereignty will be abolished without border security, and combined with both debt slavery and the hidden tax of inflation, our destruction is secure. Ask yourself... why would an international conglomerate of bankers and industry care for what happens to America?  We would, America, to the last man and penny, be absorbed into their collective, and this is happening right before our eyes.



“Commerce with all nations, alliance with none, should be our motto.”




On July 1st, 1957, William McChesney Marten, then Chairman of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (FRS), was quoted in a testimony before the Senate Finance Investigating Committee: “The only right Government has is the right of repeal.” Think for a moment just what this means. You see, it was just 12 years prior, on July 1st, 1944, “that the nation was placed under international control through our fiscal system by means of the Bretton Woods Agreement. The plot was hatched in the woods by the international bankers which established the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the World Bank of Reconstruction and Development. The “Convertibility Clause” of Bretton Woods, tied all foreign currencies to the U.S. Dollar, which in turn allowed any member nation with U.S. Dollars to convert them to gold, thus bringing about the hemorrhaging of our gold in Fort Knox.” (Note: No audit of Fort Knox has been available to the American Citizen for over fifty years. Our National Treasure has been squandered, and we are not allowed to know, who, when, where or how.)



In that traitorous acquisition,  both the pound and the dollar has been devalued, and every time we have this devaluation, our future is culled and placed in a foreign bank, as is the same when money is printed out of thin air. When the Federal Reserve prints unsecured money, it is one more nail in our coffin, a burden designed to enslave us, and our posterity no longer belongs to us as we the people, and our future, and our children's future belongs to them. 






The shadow Government...



The International Monetary Plan in Prospective was published in February 1968 in what was called a monthly review of the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City. You had better sit down:



“Recent developments in international finance, highlighted by the devaluation of the British pound and speculative activity in the London gold market, have created considerable interest in the future viability of the international monetary system. Policy-makers, of course, have been vitally interested in this issue for a number of years.



The most notable accomplishment, however, has been directed toward the problem of assuring an adequate long-run supply of international reserves. This accomplishment occurred at the annual meeting of the International Monetary Fund, (IMF) held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in September 1967, when a resolution was unanimously adopted to proceed with a plan to establish, within the fund, machinery for the creation of a new international reserve facility.” Yes, a new international Federal Reserve System-W.B.VSr.)



Discussions were rifle at the time, and there were many thoughts published on this matter in that year, 1968, the year I was drafted to Vietnam. One blaring accusation by Congressman Wright Patman, who was then chairman of the House Banking and Currency Committee, during a Joint Economic Committee of Congress, stated that William McChesny Martin was, “guilty of malfeasance and nonfeasance in office.”  And on February of that year the Los Angeles Times quoted William McChesney Marten to have stated: “An increase in the price of gold, in effect a devaluation of the dollar, is nether necessary or desirable as a solution to the nation's gold outflow and imbalance of payment problems... we're overextended and over committed and we're trying to do too much too fast... perpetual defects are the road to the undermining of any currency... the United States is on a wartime economy and has to pay for the war.”



Yes, a wartime economy that has continued to this day. And since Bretton Woods, it is insured to continue unabated and perpetually, as without it the ceiling would fall in... and that is why they want to continually lift the debt ceiling, unless, of course, spending is curbed... but there is too much profit to make for the war machine, international banks and international corporations, with men holding duel citizenship in our very congress pulling the strings. War is a racket. 





Paper Gold... (Perhaps a straight shot of Tequila Gold may be in order to finish this essay.)



Before continuing to the overt punch line, let us receded a bit to the year 1763 when our ambassador, Benjamin Franklin was asked why the so called Colonies had been so prosperous. His statement rings true, even as we drown: “Because we issue our own money.” Soon after, the very next year in fact, England prohibited that practice and that was the primary cause of the Revolutionary War of 1775, and realize here that every war that has been “declared” in the history of this nation... has stemmed from this very cause. So what I'm stating here, emphatically, is that banking cartels have tried to put their boots on our throats from the very first,,, In 1811, for instance, Congress voted to not renew the charter of the First Bank of the United States, and from that came the War of 1812. And why? Because International Bankers knew that “debt free” money, as printed according to our Constitution, is also called “honest money” and it could not be tapped by them. They could not get a cut in our unprecedented prosperity otherwise! They knew that without control of our monitory system, and the amazing industry and people who came to our shores from all corners of the world could not be dominated... and because of this primary reason... The Civil War was precipitated.



Martin further stated: “Rather than increase the price of gold as a solution to the payments imbalance, he called for active cooperation among nations of the world and the IMF in the creation of a much-discussed 'paper gold” (also referenced to the S.D. Rs-Special Drawing Rights and paper gold- W.B.Vsr.) drawing rights on the IMF as a supplement to international reserves... Reserves used by countries in international dealings now consist of gold, U.S. Dollars and and British pound sterling... Gold and the U.S. Dollars are the most prized universally, especially since the pound has devalued... As our deficit has mounted over the years, many foreigners holding dollars have asked for gold- still the ultimate in acceptability as international money. Some countries have “cashed in,” fearing that the United States would raise the price of gold, therefor a devaluation of the dollar... and in effect repudiating some of its international debt.”



Wonder how China, Russia, Japan, and India might feel about this, and if history is any indication of future events, wouldn't that be the primary catalyst for war? In 1968, Lundberg who was then chairman of the Bank of America, made a startling suggestion: “The Federal Reserve Board's powers be vastly extended to include control over the entire U.S. credit industry, not just commercial banks. The Federal Reserve Bank, which is not part of the Government but is often sympathetic to government fiscal goals, now has controls beyond regulation of interest rates and reserve requirements of commercial banks. The Government's policy is fiscal irresponsibility and it presents a clear-cut danger to the world economy... We cannot continue to run such sizable deficits in our balance of payments, at a time when our gold stock is being reduced, without seriously undermining world confidence in the dollar.”  When that was written the National Debt was $336 Billion, and the annual interest on that debt was 14 billion. At this time, or debt is 17.6 trillion, and there is no viable way to determine if that number is accurate, or in actuality, what we pay in interest, or to whom. No complete audit of the Federal Reserve has taken place as of yet, though this year we are told it will happen...





World War three has already begun...



We are being drawn into a world conflict, a World War three, for this very reason alone... for corporate and banking profit. We Americans are such good and trusting people... We think our cause is a noble one... that we are bringing something called democracy to the lands we destroy, from the outside in to the inside out, and in the process, make fortunes for those who finance it, from banks who finance both sides, to a debt that enslaves our very future... A debt so big, and growing every day, it is unsustainable... and when we foreclose on this debt, the American entitlement society and working man alike, will not be able to wrap their minds around just how bad it may become... and as we will kill each other for the scraps that are left, bankers, like carpetbagger vultures, will own us all, lock, stock, and barrel. Let me say this again, for the sake of celerity... it could get so bad that most everyone left alive, after a week without lights, will beg government to quell the ciaos by force... and the men who will rescue us, will not be the US Army, Navy, or Marine, but Solders of Fortune like Black-water, working with an international force called the UN. Only then... will America find it in their hearts and minds to state a Declaration of Independence, and the blood of tyrants and patriots will be the fertilizer for a New America, born again in Liberty, or, more likely be absorbed into a One World Order.



If we can come together, if we can restore Article 1, Section 8, Paragraph 5, all nu-Constitutional activities will wither and die. Yes, it is said that the root of all evil is man's love for money, and so if we can show that Liberty is profitable, that truth is profitable, that peace is profitable, and that our Constitution ties us to prosperity, America will again be a beacon of light for the entire world, just as we once were.



God bless America, and the entire world as well.



Author's note:



There are two other dates that may be of some interest to you, as an informed American Citizen. It was sent to me by Lisa Guliani, in response to my 2011 essay published in the Crowley Post.



"The date is February 21, 1871 and the Forty-First Congress is in session. I refer you to the "Acts of the Forty-First Congress," Section 34, Session III, chapters 61 and 62. On this date in the history of our nation, Congress passed an Act titled: "An Act To Provide A Government for the District of Columbia." This is also known as the "Act of 1871." What does this mean? Well, it means that Congress, under no constitutional authority to do so, created a separate form of government for the District of Columbia, which is a ten mile square parcel of land."



The other is The inauguration day of Donald Trump as the 45th President of the United States, Friday, January 20, 2017.



Further study, evaluation, and revalation...
US CODE: Title 28,3002. Definitions (Page gone, but archived here.)

(15) "United States" means —
   (A) a Federal corporation;
   (B) an agency, department, commission, board, or other entity of the United States; or
   (C) an instrumentality of the United States.
Note that (B) and (C) refer to (A), so basically, in the American legal code the "United States" is a federal corporation, not a country.



Further reading:


The United States is "a Federal corporation". It's a business, a red-white-and-blue mafia operating under the color of legal weasel words, and it is shaking you down for money, by armed force. It regards you as its numbered and catalogued property. It really is that simple. ...

This is THE DEEP STATE. 


There is not a "country" called the "United States of America." It is a CORPORATION and it considers you to be its property. Why would you want to save that hideous monstrosity and be a part of it? What is "great" or good about it? ...


I don't know, and neither do you, whether we are perhaps dealing with a malevolent, artificially intelligent machine monstrosity or an actual demonic entity known as the "United States", that is intricately protected by a fiendishly wicked government and body of so-called law that is not at all what it appears to be, because when you start to dig and examine what the "United States" really is, you run into blind alleys, nonsensical information, misdirection, reams and reams of legal weasel words and documents that mean something completely other than what they appear to mean, and one false façade after another that completely contradicts what we were all taught to believe is real and true.


President Trump has a big job to do, and so far no man has been capable of fighting back... We The People can help him, but we first have to learn the names of our true enemies. Our ignorance is at the very top of that list...

The ember of self-worth and "The Beast with Red Cheeks" by Ken La Rive



Prague

The ember of self-worth and "The Beast with Red Cheeks"

By: Ken La Rive

The Socrates conversation...



The thought I will attempt to clarify here is indeed profound, and not easily explained. It journeyed for thirty years with a barrier I tried to overcome back in university called Plato’s Republic. There, I tried to understand a conversation Socrates had with two young Athenians, Glaucon and Adamants... They spoke of a chief psychological phenomenon that all men possess, a noble association with what is called courage, and the reasoning behind a reality where one will willingly risk everything, even one’s own life, for such a nebulous ideal. In echoing marble halls, they studied and discussed the motivation of the solder, whose main objective in life, they thought, was defense of the city. However, in the course of that conversation, they found something profound. They wondered what would make a man risk his life for little or no pay? What motivated them to march in punishing conditions... sometime with meager nourishment, violent resistance, disease, and death?  What was his motivation?



There were many powerful institutions in history who tried to formulate this reasoning, because they knew if that key could be found, men would become putty in their hands... Hume, Alexander Hamilton, Hobbs, Machiavelli, and Nietzsche, all spoke of “the beast with red cheeks.” And I saw the worth of this study become apparent in a simple but intense conversation in an Internet coffee shop of Czech Republic.  It was an inspiration, a flash of insight, just a decade after their amazing totalitarian push-back called the Velvet Revolution... and those red cheeks was the blush of resistance to tyranny.  




The Power of the Powerless...



My young Czech friend, Martin, Maddy and I, in from the snow, was discussing the human condition of pre-democratic Bohemia. Martin mentioned a man named Vaclav Havel, who became president of Czechoslovakia in 1998.  He had been previously jailed as a dissident, and became the founder of a human rights organization there called, Charter 77, long before the democratic revolutions of Eastern Europe were achieved. He saw it as inevitable... He realized that men have in them, and assign to the world about them, a degree of worth. Plato called this worth, thymos, where men seek recognition based on what worth they assign to themselves, and the world.



While in prison, Havel formulated astonishing ideas as to the nature of the evil that was the core of the system that jailed him, and he published these thoughts in the 80’s in an essay called “The Power of the Powerless.” There he tells the story of the greengrocer, and although I don’t have the space to put it all here, in a nutshell it is about a grocer in a totalitarian society who has a sign in his window: “Workers of the World, Unite.” Havel thoroughly questions the many various reasons why the greengrocer would agree to put that sign in his window... It protects the greengrocer, to a degree, from informers, and it gives a message to his superiors that reflect their agenda and interests, while amazingly shielding its real meaning.  This meaning is evident, my friend told me, to all who live by the enslavement of the spirit, and know that the sign should read: “I am afraid and therefore unquestioningly obedient,” but indeed, it is the semantics that leaves the greengrocer a bit of dignity... Dignity, in a world of oppression, and spiritual slavery. It leaves the greengrocer with what is called “disinterested conviction” and allows him to express: “What is wrong with uniting the world?” Havel wrote: “Thus the sign helps the greengrocer to conceal from himself the low foundations of power.  It hides them behind the facade of something high.  And that something is Ideology.”



And why not just admit that he was afraid?  The reason is quite simple. The greengrocer believes that he has a certain amount of worth... and this is the real reason that totalitarian communism doesn't work.  The greengrocer believed that he was more than his fear and need, and even though he didn’t know how to articulate it, he felt stronger, and possibly a bit smarter than those who tried to control him. He saw his slavery, and named his masters... just as we are now trying to do with the Deep State. God help us, but the same men who controlled his world, are now controlling ours.



He displayed that sign because he is capable of choice, no matter how subtle, and displayed it sorely for the sake of principle.  He was, however, according to Havel, fooling himself, but non-the less believed himself to be of sound principle, rather than being entirely a scared victim. In his mind, he was anything but a victim, so long as he kept that fire in his belly.



Of course it really doesn’t matter much in the grand scheme of things, but to the green grocer, it was a grand statement that shows that he is, on the inside, a free man. The sum of this man was a lot more than fear, his need to survive, even his responsibilities...



Yes, survival is paramount, of course, but it is human nature to always push back from the tyrant... Even if there is just a small glimmer of hope, freedom of the spirit constantly tries to push to the surface.  It is the truest nature of man, Liberty from tyranny... It is the one element very hard to quell, and it is the true, and only salvation of a Patriot. This ember, that glows in the breast of every man and woman, is always waiting to ignite... 

 

Havel wrote: “The essential aims of life are present naturally in every person.  In everyone there is some longing for humanity’s rightful dignity, for moral integrity, for free expression of being and a sense of transcendence over the world of existence.”  And then on the other hand, he wrote: “…each person is capable, to a greater or lesser degree, of coming to terms with living within the lie.”


Is this our true duality, our reason for being: dignity, and its opposition, humiliation? Both are so evident in our daily lives... the same two words are the description Havel gives for life in communist Czechoslovakia! Who are we? What have we become? Ask these questions, and you will receive an answer in like kind!

Why we fight.

  The Bolshevik machine


Brezhnev totalitarian states attempted to make the populace both complicit and compliant, and not just by terror. There was also the constant dangling of the features, advantages and benefits of modern consumerism before them, the proverbial carrot on a stick.  This was the fuel they used to run the Bolshevik machine, this desire for a better life, of material possessions, i.e., a vacation in the Alps, a refrigerator, and a foreign car, as materialism is the catalysts that pitted the desiring part of the soul with the thymotic part. Once that materialistic hunger is instilled, and morals and ethics dispelled, their destiny no longer belonged to them, and those who resisted, disappeared in the dead of night. My friend in the coffee shop told us of the beautiful man-made facade that was Prague, and the dread and fear behind its parapet walls.  He cried when he told us that American motivational speakers tried to get people to smile, as the faces of the new business entrepreneurs, had forgotten how. The strength of faith, a moral standard, had to remain hidden, by fear of death... There are many standards that influenced and orchestrated the very foundation of our American society. Destroy this, make a populous dependent on a Big Brother government, and it will die on the vine. 

Without a doubt, its selfish allure grips our future, as the power and control of a true Totalitarian Government is supported by the constant and unrelenting oppression, and with time, increment by increment, subjugates our free will.  Without this constant suppression, human beings will always seek an avenue to rebel, pushing back on the yoke... But tyranny is slow to die, and Liberty easy...


Today, hopefully, our Progressive Socialist Marxist leftist ideology is doomed to have the same fate... And as Liberty and Communism are diametrically opposed, they will ultimately cancel each other out... Unfortunately, as our founders duly warned us: "The Tree of Liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of Patriots and Tyrants." -Thomas Jefferson. And as John Adams, in 1776 said: “Liberty once lost is lost forever.” So let us pause here... We cling to the notion, the hope, that our masters will let us utilize the greatest gift ever bestowed on a people, the ability to self govern? That is, our Constitutional Republic based on law, with its backbone, our Civil Liberties, given to us by God.  Will they voluntarily release us from what can only be described as voluntary servitude? Never. They will never. They would rather see us all dead.


 So here we finally come back to Plato’s thymos. It is defined in The Republic as an innate human psychological set of virtues like bravery, courage, idealism, principle, morality, self-sacrifice, and honor. Thymos is the process of evaluating these principles by putting value on them, and this value can be so powerful that it can outweigh life itself.  As we evaluate ourselves in relation to how we perceive others to be evaluating us, whether accurate or not, we may then assign a value to ourselves based on that. 


Indignation is a feeling one gets when self worth is not balanced with what we perceive another (more valuable) set of values to be. Perhaps this model can help us ascertain the twisted reasoning that motivated the shootings these past few years in our American schools. These murdering individuals seem to have lost, or displaced, their value or self worth, considered themselves irrevocably separated, and placed that same negativity on the others they massacred.  As the value they have for themselves are not shared by their peers, the indignation is too much to bear, as love for humanity is displaced by a horror of self loathing, desperation, and worthlessness.



So there is a desire here, for simple recognition, and it arises from the thymos. The thymos phenomenon is a psychological attempt to balance by justice and selflessness, but at the same time is itself selfish in nature, and as Socrates pointed out, it has a potential to be an alley of reason, suppressing wrong or foolhardy desire, or destruction. This duality can twist us into reacting to the world in anger and violence, and its understanding is paramount to getting control of our emotions. 

When our perceived values of both ourselves and the world are not recognized by others, the thymos self-assertion kicks in with feelings of frustration, questions of self-worth, and then anger. And also then, if a person become angry, for instance by indignation, he may react without regard for anything else, including his own safety. There are some that suggest that thymos is also the starting point for conflict, and the fundamental source of evil. On the other hand if the thymos is nurtured with positive affirmation, it can flower with untold conviction. As an evaluation of one’s self-worth, it can mean the difference between self-esteem or self-reproach.



On a personal note, I have been told that I care too much for what others may think of me.  This is something that was taught, perhaps as far back as Mother’s knee.  What control we have of these emotions, and the thoughts they induce, is proportional to the understanding we have of them, and the effort we set forth to manifest our goals and dreams. Pervert that, and the entire civilization will disintegrate like a house of cards. A modification of the values that we held close as a child surely should be reevaluated to fit our adulthood... and I’m not saying it’s easy. Self reflecting meditation takes time, as we attempt to unravel the many tentacles and hooks that control both our mind and spirit.



There are other avenues of the thymos that can further expand an understanding of this life, our motivations and desires, so well understood by our Freudian masters.  Megalothymia is the thymus at work in the authoritarian, or tyrannical type of person, and it’s opposite the isothymia. It defines a person’s need to be recognized as an equal... To learn more about values and how much of a role they play in how we think and act, there are several sources to go to, beside the ones I’ve mentioned.  Read: “The End of History and the Last Man,” by Francis Fukuyama, “Nietzsche’s view of Socrates,” by Werner J. Dannhauser, and “On History” by Immanuel Kant... and know this, the powers that be, have.   And oh, THE PRINCE, by Machiavelli.



“Hagel…believed that work was the true essence, the true essence of man.”

                                                                             -Karl Marx




Author's NOTE:



A truth seeker is a student, and will be until the last breath. His motivation is a simple one, and "it" is distilled into a vessel that he carries day and night. It pulls and pushes him, and every truth he finds alienates him further from those who care for little or nothing but immediate gratification. He keeps loneliness well hidden, along with his doubts about self-worth. His ultimate goal, one might imagine, is to save the world, but he knows that he is hampered by his own inabilities, IQ, for one, time, and other responsibilities like making a living for his family, and he is guilt-ridden that he cannot produce more. He eats it, dreams it, and it moves through his veins every waking moment, and yes, it consumes him, as he realizes that the opposition, his enemy, are far stronger, and without his own morals and ethics, far more dangerous... because they, unlike he, will stop at nothing to win. He does not want to be like them, but he knows his ethics are his Achilles heel, the vulnerable space in his righteous armor.



As he connects the dots, unraveling the invisible lines of force that he sees on every side of his bogus reality, propaganda, lies, and deceptions that run into a great rabbit-hole void, he tries to navigate in this great storm of insanity, trying desperately to keep his. He sees the faces of his grandchildren, and the world they will inherit, and it creates a vortex of consternation that reaches his very soul, and yet, a powerful volition too. He is desperate to save them from a protected state of mind that controls this world's psyche, body, and spirit... and though he sees their enslavement, he is at a loss to fight it, and yet, he will never... ever give up. He loves them, and all of humanity, even though, and he knows this in the fire of his belly... that he might not have enough men to carry his coffin.    



The most profound element of this story is not that he is betrayed, but that all of humanity is, and that pressure tries to crush him, strangle him to silence... but that is the fuel, and the strength in his arms.  That is the Liberty Movement.



-Ken La Rive


Liberty is in the heart of ever person...
