Poor man wanna be richRich man wanna be kingAnd a king ain’t satisfied‘Til he rules everything
Badlands – Springsteen
I know Springsteen has aged into a far-left establishment shill who fell for the Covid scam, got his jabs and boosters, and is now clearly vaxx injured, as he had to cancel his world tour because of “illness”. During the covid scamdemic he made his audiences prove they were vaxxed, and then had to cancel multiple concerts because band members tested positive for covid. He and Neil Young, the anti-establishment bad boys during the early 1970’s, are now a laughing-stock to any critical thinking person who didn’t buy the government and media propaganda about a non-lethal flu bug.
Be that as it may, Springsteen’s 1978 album – Darkness on the Edge of Town – is my favorite, probably because most of the songs are dark and angry, matching my personality. Times in this country were not good in the mid 1970s. A president resigned over Watergate. Inflation was raging due to central bank and government incompetence.
The OPEC oil embargo due to the U.S. support for Israel created supply shortages and long lines at gas stations across the badlands of America. It seems support for Israel hurting America has been a constant theme over the last 50 years. As a 12 year old kid, I remember waiting in those gas lines with my dad. There were no smart phones to kill the time, maybe just my latest edition of Sports Illustrated to read.
The four lines above from Badlands pretty much sum up how the world works and how it has always worked. Everyone on this earth has 80 to 100 years, if they are lucky, to make their mark. We know a virtuous decent person would just want to work hard, earn a fair wage, marry, raise honest upstanding children, teach them morals, be a benefit to their community, and leave the world a better place than when they entered. But we know the forces of evil will not allow this path for most people.
The American Dream was a glorious fantasy, to keep the masses sedated and malleable, as those behind the scenes, pulling the strings of society, as documented by Edward Bernays in his 1928 book Propaganda, would never allow the dream to be realized by most.
“The American Dream is that dream of a land in which life should be better and richer and fuller for everyone, with opportunity for each according to ability or achievement. It is a difficult dream for the European upper classes to interpret adequately, and too many of us ourselves have grown weary and mistrustful of it. It is not a dream of motor cars and high wages merely, but a dream of social order in which each man and each woman shall be able to attain to the fullest stature of which they are innately capable, and be recognized by others for what they are, regardless of the fortuitous circumstances of birth or position.” – James Truslow Adams – The Epic of America – 1931
The American Dream has always been a fallacy, with a brief period during the 1950s and 1960s where some of the poor were able to elevate their status to the middle class. Since the 1970s, the poor have gotten poorer, even though they have been convinced by their overlords they are richer through the use of seemingly limitless debt. Driving expensive sports cars and living in McMansions while up to your eyeballs in debt is not getting richer. Buying shit you don’t need with one of your ten credit cards, to keep up with the Joneses, while paying 24% interest on the balance is not getting richer. The only ones getting richer are the already rich bankers.
There are many rich men in this world, and they aren’t satisfied with those riches. They want to use their wealth to gain more wealth, power and control over others. Life is a game to many of these psychopaths, and they want to win at all costs. Millionaires want to be billionaires. Billionaires want to be the wealthiest billionaire. And these soulless greedy accumulators of wealth want to be king and rule everything. Gates and Soros are poster boys for Springsteen’s description. They do not want to build a better world. They want to remake the world, unleashing a darkness that will engulf and destroy the planet. These are evil men who have a vast army of equally evil men working to fulfill their satanic agenda.
The gathering gloom you are feeling is real. As most people go about their daily lives, rooting for their football teams, posting drivel on facebook and twitter, buying tickets to Taylor Swift’s concert movie, staring at their i-gadget prisons, and wondering why their standard of living keeps going down, psychopaths in suits are pushing the world toward World War 3. Time to get right with the lord and be prepared for the worst. There truly is a darkness on the edge of town and it is bearing down on us like a locomotive. The dream is real and it should be waking you up at night with a fear so real. Welcome to the badlands.
Talk about a dreamTry to make it realYou wake up in the nightWith a fear so realYou spend your life waitingFor a moment that just don’t comeWell, don’t waste your time waiting

We are grateful to the Washington Post, the New York Times, Time magazine, and other great publications whose directors have attended our meetings and respected their promises of discretion for almost 40 years. It would have been impossible for us to develop our plan for the world if we had been subjected to the lights of publicity during those years. But the world is now more sophisticated and prepared to march towards a world government. The supra-national sovereignty of an intellectual elite and world bankers is surely preferable to the national auto-determination practiced in past centuries.”
David Rockefeller – Council on Foreign Relations, June 1991
Oh yeah, the “giant sucking sound”, of the 1992 campaign.
Hum, wiki:
Billionaire Ross Perot launched an independent campaign, emphasizing his opposition to the North American Free Trade Agreement and his plan to reduce the national debt.
That “giant sucking sound” said Perot. And of course the victimized GOP blamed Ross for the loss.
Some of the character traits exhibited by serial killers or criminals may be observed in many within the political arena. They share the traits of psychopaths who are not sensitive to altruistic appeals, such as sympathy for their victims or remorse or guilt over their crimes. They possess the personality traits of lying, narcissism, selfishness, and vanity. These are the people to whom we have entrusted our fate. Is it any wonder that America is failing at home and world-wide?”
Jim Kouri
Scary “white” boy serial killers from 1970’s California, are now in charge of this country….
The easiest way to gain control of a population is to carry out acts of terror. The public will clamor for such laws if their personal security is threatened.”
Josef Stalin
Thus, we have the Dept of Homeland Security
and Michael Chertoff’s X-ray machines detecting sweat on one’s balls.
So VERY ashykenasty…
“ashykenasty” , hey , if you savor government detecting sweat on balls, maybe yours, maybe not, pussy, passing through TSA things, well some are into that.
The United States has entered the ranks of the failed states. One of the most remarkable manifestations of a failed state is that the criminals are all inside the government operating against the people, whereas in a normal state, the criminals are on the outside of the government, operating against it. So, we now have every manifestation of being a failed state, with the government in the hands of a few Wall Street gangsters.”

I think this a very hard choice, but the price – we think the price is worth it.”
Secretary of State Madeleine Albright – about US sanctions killing more than 500,000 Iraqi children
From 1945 to 2003, the United States attempted to overthrow more than 40 foreign governments, and to crush more than 30 populist-nationalist movements fighting against intolerable regimes. In the process, the US bombed some 25 countries, caused the end of life for several million people, and condemned many millions more to a life of agony and despair.”

How does continuous war act to keep the Lows “stupefied by poverty” and thereby assure the maintenance of the social structure? The goal of the wars is to enable the economy to be kept going for the benefit of the High, its military, and its bureaucracy and control personnel (the Thought Police, etc.), but at the same time to assure that any excess production capacity is prevented from producing consumer goods for the lower classes. That excess capacity is instead directed to producing excess military goods which will ‘ ultimately rust away or be destroyed in warfare; that is, the excess capacity is deliberately wasted in order to turn it away from the production of goods which would result in added leisure or well-being for the lower classes. Those classes are instead continually forced into group activities expressing hatred toward the current enemy (any enemy) and dependency upon and love toward their benevolent rulers for protecting them from that enemy. They are thereby led to accept the consumer shortages, the poverty, and the other privations to which they are subjected. Their economic status is kept at the subsistence level, forcing their priorities to be focused on simply acquiring basic food, clothing, and shelter. They are thus denied either the time or the inclination to question the fairness or permanence of their societal condition, or to otherwise evolve into a threat to the established hierarchy.”
from George Orwell’s 1949 novel “1984”
The Depression [1929] was not accidental. It was a carefully contrived occurrence. The international bankers sought to bring about a condition of despair here [United States] so that they might emerge as rulers of us all.”
Louis T. McFadden, Chairman of the U.S. House of Representatives’ Banking and Currency Committee, 1932
There is no such thing, at this date of the world’s history, in America, as an independent press. You know it and I know it.
There is not one of you who dares to write your honest opinions, and if you did, you know beforehand that it would never appear in print. I am paid weekly for keeping my honest opinion out of the paper I am connected with. Others of you are paid similar salaries for similar things, and any of you who would be so foolish as to write honest opinions would be out on the streets looking for another job. If I allowed my honest opinions to appear in one issue of my paper, before twenty-four hours my occupation would be gone.
The business of the journalists is to destroy the truth, to lie outright, to pervert, to vilify, to fawn at the feet of mammon, and to sell his country and his race for his daily bread. You know it and I know it, and what folly is this toasting an independent press?
We are the tools and vassals of rich men behind the scenes. We are the jumping jacks, they pull the strings and we dance. Our talents, our possibilities and our lives are all the property of other men. We are intellectual prostitutes.”
John Swinton, preeminent New York journalist, at a press banquet,1880
War is coming. So get ready and get busy preparing for the inevitable. It’ll all be based on a mountain of lies as most if not all wars are.
They all are.
What a jerk Springsteen turned out to be. Like so many public “rebels”, he turned into a craven establishment creep when it came to stand tall.
He’s angry and he’s filthy stinking rich. I can’t remember who said western civilization couldn’t survive rock and roll, but he was right.
I disagree, it’s the Britney Spears and Taylor Swifts and Madonnas of the world that is killing western civilization .
He’s a Hillary snatcheater
He deserves nothing better. At least that Woke asshat Bono is keeping a low profile these days.
These short, more frequent updates, are a welcome addition to your more lengthy and comprehensive posts. Well done Jim… Chip
Sadly, as this crisis deepens with more yet to be announced, we will lean strongly to the supposed strongman like Trump and away from someone moderate like Kennedy.
This will seal the deal to more of the same nonsensical.
A grave pity.

Donald Trump Sings in the Stand with Israel Chorus
Heard an ad by Ron Paul on radio yesterday plugging for Birch Gold. While I doubt I’ll participate in a gold IRA, more likely to acquire physical junk silver, I thought the introduction a strong message as Ron started by asking how to combat Joe Biden. His answer to the question, no, it’s not voting republican then on to plugging for gold IRAs. It’s not voting republican. Priceless!
Oh well, it took less than 24 hours for Trump to shut the door on a noninterventionist approach. In this important area of foreign policy, Trump is failing to live up to his apparent effort to run as the peace candidate in the Republican presidential primary.
Word.
AmericaTrump First. Is there any principled position he hasn’t dropped like a hot rock?Mr. Trump, they call him Flipper, Flipper…
He was always Israel First, MIGA
Tex,
You are correct Sir!
GOLD IRAs…Ha! Give me a break…not only is possession 9/10’s of the law (law–we don’t need no stink’in law) it is 10/10’s of complete control if you can defend it (both IRA holders and all the others who garden after midnight) no matter what ‘PAPER’ agreement or hidden hole…anyone has…unless they ‘POSSESS’ it…and can DEFEND IT!
And I mean all sides including the ahhhhh so called safe depositary IRA locations defended by 15 underpaid Mall Cop types who when threatened let alone actually attacked by a ‘well-armed’ – military platoon, militia, ABC contingent of mercenaries, mafia, cabal, mob, gang, inside betrayers connected to all listed above…etc. etc. etc… will turn over that gold faster than the Road Runner in a puff of smokeless smoke.
But don’t worry IRA holders…you will eventually receive a letter about how the ahhhhh so called ‘safe depositary’ is suing whoever actually now has it…to get it back!
Their lawyer’s faces will be on the cases!
Here will be the the last time the IRA holders will see their Gold…post SHTF!
May the Schwartz be with the IRA holders! (Every conceivable pun – there are many – intended).
I won’t do gold IRA. Ron Paul’s answer, no, it’s not voting republican. I’ve posted before a man’s response at at a gas pump where I commented the price of gasoline and the man said I must “vote republican”. This is an example the kind of man I would be more inclined to get in a fight, probably some kind of Trump duped. I ain’t taking shit from any of them , Biden or Trump. TY.
Count me out. I ain’t leaning. Those that do can “own” the POS.
I prefer grasshoppers to crickets.
Either will do fine on your Blackstone griddle. What I wants is a Blackstone. The neighbors have one. Don’t be left out. “It’s a cultural thing.”
More like Schwarzman’s Blackstone.
Wow, just found my way here. I will read you much much more. I have found place that thinks like me.
What took yah, Rich?
Great piece. Though I do disagree with one statement. It certainly did have the potential to be a VERY lethal “flu” – that’s why early outpatient treatment that worked was denied, and all the official messaging was “if you have symptoms, stay home.” When has that EVER been the protocol for a respiratory illness? Zelenko showed us, from the get go.
EVERYTHING about the 70’s was “manufactured’. ALL of it, I LIVED LIKE A KING on $90/week. Get over it.
