Thanks for the Murphy link - a good one.

"When Do the Lawsuits Begin?"
Never, or a pointless, doomed to fail endeavor, if attempted. The law is a hierarchical power construct. Corruption at the top (architectural control point) is sufficient to corrupt and negate the efforts of whatever honest judges reside at lower hierarchical levels.
Honest judges will defer to power out of TERROR of the consequences of not doing so, especially without KNOWING that the people (consent of the governed - MANDATORY) are willing to risk life and limb in supporting the law. It is another elite meme that the law can never function properly in its basic role as "reality accountant", assigning consequences to those who choose the actions.The problem is that we have "rule of corrupt, parochial man" as opposed to "rule of law" with objective, reality based standards (immune to opinion) regarding what is just and what is not.Rule of Law, Defined:
Click to View Link Defined:
We are all free to profit or suffer and learn (adapt to excellence) by facing the consequences of our OWN choices. Injustice is to be forced to suffer the consequences of choices of unaccountable (irresponsible) others..
"The danger is not that a particular class is unfit to govern. Every class is unfit to govern. The law of liberty tends to abolish the reign of race over race, of faith over faith, of class over class." ~ Lord Acton
The law has devolved to whatever "we, the people" are willing to tolerate. Tolerance is no longer consent, it is TERROR of defiance.

It was just a rhetorical question, Bill. A literary artifice, a kind of scaffold on which an argument could be erected and some points made. Geez ...

Thomas Jefferson said in 1802, "I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around the banks will deprive the people of all property until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered..." Amazing wisdom of this great man!

Love this article and the truth it holds.
Wish I could speak of the truth with my circle without being labeled a "conspiracy theorist" or pessimist.I've asked the believers in GW to explain to me how the glaciers that covered America, especially cutting up my home state, melted? I ask them if they realize the effect the mini-ice age had on our world, and the outcome of millions of deaths from the plague.
A plague which just happened to directly follow mass starvation from shortened growing seasons.In the words of my grandpa, "I smelled a big commie rat." As for lawsuits, well now. These would be the first lawsuits I could actually believe in and support (in spirit). Fat chance of that.

We need to understand that "science" that we remember with the inventor coming up with a plan or academic freedom no longer exist. Science in the private sector is usually funded or purchased by big corporations, and in the public sector controlled by grants.
So if true academics want to stand up against the status quo, the powers simply "redirect" grants or give them to competing voices not unlike a presidential election. Once enough of the big names are on board, it is then easy to shift public favor away from the minority voice and discredit them.
Since climate data that we know of it a snapshot in time, it is easy to come up with results that match that snapshot in time, regardless if longer cycles are missed.
I cannot argue that alternative technologies are a good way to protect our interests, however artificially redirecting them is economically costly. The real issue is for the powers to monetize emissions and consumption of energy which is highly abundant. That can lead to controls from the country level down to individuals, much more insidious than a hybrid car.

"It was just a rhetorical question...Geez
"You KNOW it and I KNOW it.
Point is: If you want to be free, it is pointless to whine to (and pay) those who profit by remaining in strategic denial of the FACT that our freedom is inherent because we live in an action precedes consequence reality.
We are free to choose to do whatever the laws of physics allows. The only choice of others, arbitrary power included is: What do they choose to do in response.
Bottom line: Want freedom?, then, personally, don't put up with any crap. Nobody except LIARS claim life is risk free or without costs. Choose to be neither predator nor prey then, they cannot touch you without discrediting themselves.

"The motives of "the cabal" are to give support to the dollar, keep US interest rates lower than they should be, and to tone down the widely watched US barometer of US financial market health, that being the gold price."
I guess this is the part that continues to elude me, and makes for difficult cocktail party conversation. One might assume that any group referred to as "the cabal" would be made up of persons of wealth by some traditional measure, chief amongst those being cash, gold and silver.
How do those people benefit from depressing the cash value of gold while at the same time depressing interest rates on cash? I would think that the motive of a person seeking to increase their personal power and wealth would work to increase both quantities?
I'd personally appreciate a more detailed explanation of this strategy.
Reply from the Daily Bell:
The cabal, power elite, whatever you want to call it, is after power rather than money. Money springs from power. Thus it is necessary to control society as best you can. And fiat money offers a lot more control than gold or silver ( to the degree you can issue it, anyway) which anyone can dig out of the ground. Hope that helps.

Government can do no wrong! Anything else is organized crime.
Government is no more than people claiming and asserting their rights. That is lawful activity. It is accomplished through due process of law. Anyone engaged in that activity is acting under law, and is exercising the power of government.
Anyone creating a situation which benefits one group at the detriment of another group is not government. What we are experiencing in Washington DC, and in every township, city and state is organized crime operating under color of law.
The actions of Congress and the Federal Administration for the most part are criminal. As long as we refer to these criminal acts being committed by government we suppress the impulse and the duty do do something about it.
If we are to live in a lawful society, we cannot tolerate criminal activity by public office holders in the name of government. Yet, if we rely upon public servants who have a delegation of authority to investigate and prosecute crime we will get no relief. They are part of the problem. That's why the Grand Jury and Petite Jury system was created. Anyone can call a grand jury and investigate crime. Anyone can be commissioned by a grand jury to execute a warrant.
Will the participants risk being persecuted by public servants for phony crimes? You bet! How many of you fought in any one of the various wars that the power elite contrived in order to consolidate their own power? How many of you believed you were risking your life for your country? It was a rigged game, though, wasn't it? But, you went. You risked life and limb. Nothing worthwhile comes without risk.
You don't need to play by the rules of the power elite. Learn how to investigate crime, issue a true bill, make affidavits of facts, commission special prosecutors and issue warrants. Make the criminals play by the rules of the common law. You won't have common law unless you exercise it.
Don't react to the fraud we call civil law government. Make the criminals in office react to your lawful process. Give them the rope to hang themselves -- give them the opportunity to make admissions and confessions of their crimes. Draw conclusions and create presumptions that will be confessed to by their silence. Make them join issue with you or stand mute and suffer judgment. Then use nonjudicial judgments to strip them of their wealth.
Enforce whatever judgments a lawfully constructed jury deems fitting and just. Bill Ross is absolutely correct. You cannot expect others, much less paid political hacks, to construct a lawful society. Their nature is to destroy it. You must create the conditions under which you desire to live. By your ignorance, silence, and inaction you are creating the conditions that you are willing tolerate.

We agree that the money that he made off of this scheme needs to be paid back. I think it is wonderful that the Bell is so clear on this promotion by the Socialist movement perpetrated by the power elite in order to transfer wealth from hard working people to the undiscipled world. Keep up the good work Daily Bell.

I recently read that "fat al" goldman and J P Morgan had formed a consortium which had exclusive carbon trading rights on the Chicago and London exchanges. Enough said?

Outstanding article! The question remains, what can be done about it? How do we prevent our representatives from being bought by interested parties? I recommend impeachment suits for deserving representatives.

Like most who see through the AGW hoax, you're still missing the biggest part of the "Big Lie", and it's been in front of OUR noses since the beginning.
Do about 10 minutes of research on the Medieval Warm Period and the Little Ice Age, and then tell me which climate was more hospitable to life...That's right... :-)

Good point. But that doesn't render the hoax less costly.

Thanks for your reply, but you appear to have missed my point.I wasn't trying to paint it as being a minor issue. I believe that it's the biggest scientific hoax in history, and the intention of its perpetrators was to pull off the greatest robbery of all times.For several years now, "skeptics" like Dr. Lindzen, Lord Monckton, and others, have been speaking out against the hoax, and yet as brilliant and as passionate as they've been, they've failed to convince the public that the whole thing is a big lie.
The recent IPCC scandals haven't even made that big of an impact on the scam, because the lamestream media is basically ignoring the entire story, and few of our legislators who know the truth, have the stones to stand up and say so. The point of my previous comment is that reason why I believe that nobody has dealt with the issue properly is because they've been ignoring the most simple and basic scientific truths about the issue when they address it.As an example, rather than arguing whether the benefits of "Cap

Part 3
If we really want to defeat this evil hoax, we need to approach it in the proper way. We must keep repeating the basic science over and over again, and we must expose the people who are really behind it, starting with Maurice Strong, and the UN's environmental organizations. The UN has become prime culprit here. They operate under the assumption that their treaties supersede our Constitution.
As described on 'Soldier for Liberty
Click to View Link
the UN has devised a plan where upon they take from the rich (you and I and anyone else in the world that works for a living) and give to the poor (those countries who refuse to elevate themselves due to corrupt governments, societal concerns, etc..)
Just like 'Oil for Food however, the real plan is just to steal our money and institute a mafia like system to bully us into cooperation.

Part 4
It's all been laid out in great detail in the UN's 'Agenda 21, the progressives plan to "Save the Earth" ratified by over 100 nations at the UN's original Earth Day Summit in Rio De Janeiro in 1972. The full text can be found at the following

It should scare the hell out of every rational person on earth.
Everyone should also become familiar with one of the most evil men in the Obama administration, John Holdren, Obama's Science Czar:

When you learn what makes these people tick, you begin to see that the AGW movement is literally the foundation of their sociopathic plan to control the entire world, by creating a singe world government with themselves in charge.
We need to work together and to work smart if we're to have any chance of defeating these people. We must not forget that there are literally TRILLIONS of dollars on the line here. They won't give up without a fight !
