Obama Repeals ObamaCare

Wall Street Journal
December 21, 2013

It seems Nancy Pelosi was wrong when she said "we have to pass" ObamaCare to "find out what's in it." No one may ever know because the White House keeps treating the Affordable Care Act's text as a mere suggestion subject to day-to-day revision. Its latest political retrofit is the most brazen: President Obama is partly suspending the individual mandate.

The White House argued at the Supreme Court that the insurance-purchase mandate was not only constitutional but essential to the law's success, while refusing Republican demands to delay or repeal it. But late on Thursday, with only four days to go before the December enrollment deadline, the Health and Human Services Department decreed that millions of Americans are suddenly exempt.

Individuals whose health plans were canceled will now automatically qualify for a "hardship exemption" from the mandate. If they can't or don't sign up for a new plan, they don't have to pay the tax. They can also get a special category of ObamaCare insurance designed for people under age 30.

***

So merry Christmas. If ObamaCare's benefit and income redistribution requirements made your old, cheaper, better health plan illegal, you now have the option of going without coverage without the government taking your money as punishment. You can also claim the tautological consolation of an ObamaCare hardship exemption due to ObamaCare itself.

50 CHRISTIANS BURNED TO DEATH IN PASTOR’S HOME Nation becoming ‘killing fields’ as Islamists declare, ‘Convert or die’

Wake Up Call
December 17, 2013

Islam is at it again the so called religion of peace, this time with the burning alive of over 50 Christians. Christianity has always been a persecuted religion, it started with Nero, and continues all the way up to present day Islam. However, why is it that the main stream media is not covering these kind of disasters, but every day they are talking about Obama Care. To make matters worse the churches are silent, they are not taking up offerings to send to our persecuted brothers, and sisters. In stead they are building bigger buildings, worth millions.I have watched as our politicians have labeled Islam, a religion of peace, and every time I began to think how stupid our these politicians. Islam is the worst threat that the world has ever seen, over Islams centuries of founding they have killed millions in the name of Allah. This heartless religion, that kills both women and children, we are collecting donations if you want to support our outreach to this cause. We are also starting a petition to raise awareness, to try to help our brothers, and sisters as much as possible.  The bible predicts that in the End Time, persecution would increase, because Satan knows that he has a short time left.

7 Then war broke out in heaven. Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon and his angels fought back. 8 But he was not strong enough, and they lost their place in heaven. 9 The great dragon was hurled down—that ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, who leads the whole world astray. He was hurled to the earth, and his angels with him.

Revelation 12:10-12

10 Then I heard a loud voice in heaven say:

“Now have come the salvation and the power
    and the kingdom of our God,
    and the authority of his Messiah.
For the accuser of our brothers and sisters,
    who accuses them before our God day and night,
    has been hurled down.
11 They triumphed over him
    by the blood of the Lamb
    and by the word of their testimony;
they did not love their lives so much
    as to shrink from death.
12 Therefore rejoice, you heavens
    and you who dwell in them!
But woe to the earth and the sea,
    because the devil has gone down to you!
He is filled with fury,
    because he knows that his time is short.”

A persecution is coming that will be so bad that the bible says, that if Jesus did not shorten the time no flesh would be saved. During the tribulation we see the earth in pain, and judgment. Satan is increasing his attack on Gods church because he knows the time is near, we as believers have to pray for our persecuted brothers and sisters daily, and help them finacially.  Fifty members of a northern Nigerian church were burned to death in their pastor’s house.  The attack by armed gunmen was only the first in a 12-village spree of violence that left over 100 dead in northern Nigeria’s Plateau State, a region that had previously been outside Islamic terrorist group Boko Haram’s operational area and is the largely Muslim Fulani tribesmen’s homeland. The Boko Haram  has claimed responsibility for the attacks and threatened even more violence. Nigeria is become the new death zone for Christianity, this Satanic group is determined to covert or die, which is not new for Islam this is how Islam spread threw the middle east. Islam has never been a religion that gives people, the right to choice, its a religion of death a violence.

The Blasphemy of Pope Francis : "You don't Need To Believe in God To Get To Heaven"

SIC SEMPER TYRANNIS!!!

December 19, 2013

Here is a report from September of this year that I missed, but recently found and wanted to post. I have been saying that I believe the Pope (The Holy See) as they call him, may very well be the "False Prophet" of Revelation.

He is now claiming that you don't need to believe in God (Yahweh) in order to have eternal life.

This of course contradicts scripture, since you MUST believe in YAHWEH in order to receive eternal life from Him.

SANDY HOOK - CREATING REALITY

You Tube
December 17, 2013



Based on the incomparable presentation by Sofia Smallstorm, this documentary is a must-watch for any Sandy Hook researcher. This video accompanies Sofia's original presentation and spot-on analysis by adding a distinct audio/visual layer. A best effort was made to reinforce the original material, maintain accuracy and stay true to the original reporting.

Regardless of which "hook" is used, staging deceptive events requires secrecy; specifically the authorized secrecy afforded to the state. The fuel that powers conspiracy is secrecy. Ultimately, if cornered the state will invoke this privilege. So, efforts to learn the truth will be that much harder. The authority that denies our freedom through silence and deceit may be the last mountain humanity must scale to be free in the modern era. 

Let's all continue to learn and achieve, every one of us. Don't fear going against the general way of thinking. Great minds are currently in demand.

Sterling to go plastic, Bank of England decides....the end of Paper notes

The Guardian 
December 17, 2013

Matheny's Note: this is getting a step closer to the goal of a paperless currency. We are sure to possibly see other nations doing the same thing if this is successful. They will implant micro censors in these bills no doubt to track them and verify their authenticity, if they haven't already done so.

The Bank of England will announce plans on Wednesday to press ahead with switching to plastic banknotes, starting with the new Sir Winston Churchill £5 note in 2016.

The decision on polymer notes will mark the beginning of the end for 320 years of paper notes from the Bank. The move by Threadneedle Street follows Bank governor Mark Carney's native Canada, where plastic notes are being rolled out, and Australia, where they have been in circulation for more than two decades.

Carney launched a public consultation on polymer banknotes, seen as cleaner and more durable, shortly after arriving at the Bank this summer. However, the Bank's notes division has been considering plastic money for several years.

Senate GOP fails in final bid to restore military pension cuts to budget bill

Fox News
December 17, 2013

A final effort by Senate Republicans to halt cuts to pensions of military retirees failed late Tuesday, after Democrats blocked an amendment to the controversial budget bill.

The two-year budget agreement, which cleared a key test vote earlier in the day, was expected to get a final vote no later than Wednesday.

Ahead of the final vote, Sen. Jeff Sessions, R-Ala., tried unsuccessfully to use a parliamentary tactic to force a vote on the amendment, which he wrote to undo the cuts for military retirees.

A provision in the already House-passed bill would cut retirement benefits for military retirees by $6 billion over 10 years.

Sessions wanted to instead eliminate an estimated $4.2 billion in annual spending by reining in an IRS credit that illegal immigrants have claimed.

He and fellow senators argued the bill unfairly sticks veterans and other military retirees with the cost of new spending.

“It’s not correct, and it should not happen,” Sessions said on the floor.

"By blocking my amendment, they voted to cut pensions for wounded warriors," he said afterwards. "Senators in this chamber have many valid ideas for replacing these pension cuts, including my proposal to close the tax welfare loophole for illegal filers, and all deserved a fair and open hearing. But they were denied.”

Sessions’ office claimed the vote Tuesday to block the amendment was a vote to "cut military pensions instead of cutting welfare for illegal immigrants."

Russia has stationed Iskander missiles in western region: reports

Reuters
December 16, 2013

MOSCOW (Reuters) - Russia has deployed Iskander missiles with a range of hundreds of kilometers in its Baltic Sea exclave of Kaliningrad, which borders NATO members Poland and Lithuania, the pro-Kremlin newspaper Izvestia reported on Monday.

The missiles have been in place "for some time," according to Izvestia's source, a high-level Defence Ministry official it did not name. Another unnamed military source said they were deployed about 18 months ago.

The Izvestia report followed a story in German newspaper Bild on Saturday that said secret satellite imagery showed Iskander-M missiles stationed near the Polish border.

The reports caused alarm in Poland and the Baltic states, which are wary of Russian military movements after decades of dominance by the Soviet Union. Their alarm was aggravated by tension between Russia and the West over Ukraine.

"We have followed these events for quite some time, and this is not a surprise for us," Artis Pabriks, defense minister of nearby Latvia, told Reuters.

But he added: "It creates unnecessary political tension and suspicions and reduces mutual trust because we don't see reason why Russians would need such weapons here.

"I think it's just to show who is the boss in the region."

Quantitative Easing has become heroine to the financial markets: Federal Reserve balance sheet hits $4 trillion this week.

MyBudget360
December 16, 2013

Addiction is never an easy battle to overcome.  This also applies to easy money addiction that is now part of the Quantitative Easing economy.  The Fed’s extraordinary measures are now appearing to be more permanent measures.  Every time the whispers of tapering are made the markets respond accordingly signifying that the stock market is fully addicted on easy money.  There is really no backing out of QE without some sort of pain.  Any addict pulling themselves away from a drug suffers some brief or long period of withdrawal.  Yet the long-term benefits are obvious.  In this case, the Fed is not only avoiding tapering but getting more aggressive in their QE heroine.  This week, the Fed’s balance sheet crossed the $4 trillion barrier.  Of course few people pay attention to the Fed’s balance sheet but the fact that the Fed has created a second housing mania fueled by investor money is startling.

QE forever

It is interesting that each time the hint of a taper was made the market responded by pulling back.  The markets are fully addicted to this low rate environment brought on by the Fed buying up long-term MBS on the cheap.  Who in the world would take on a 4 percent mortgage in this kind of market?  Apparently only the Fed.  So it is no surprise that the markets respond with pain each time the QE taper is announced:

Source:  Money Morning

It is fairly clear that pulling back on QE will have an impact on stocks. The entire financial edifice is now building off of the assumption that QE will last forever.  This has created deep distortions in wealth and has also created a secondary housing mania where big funds are rushing out to buy real assets with artificially low rates.

It is comical to hear that the Fed is tapering because looking at the Fed balance sheet we see absolutely no signs of any sort of tapering:

To the contrary, the Fed has become more aggressive in buying up MBS via their QE operations.  The Fed is now essentially the mortgage market.  In spite of this poor allocation of resources, wealth inequality in the US has only become more pronounced.  As we have highlighted before most Americans have very little invested in the stock market so the gains here are of little consequence to the vast majority.  Companies have used the economy to cut wages and also to slam employee benefits.  Behind the scenes however high level executives especially in the financial industry have used easy money handouts from the Fed to lever up once again in the real economy.

Don’t forget the debt

We are now paying a substantial sum in interest payments on our debt:

The only thing keeping things down is the low rate we are able to garner around the world.  The Fed is aware of this and realizes any sizeable moves in interest rates will cause a dramatic rise in interest payments on debt.  Better to inflate away our debt so long as we can find a market for this.  Yet that is the problem with QE since the Fed is essentially the only player.  There is virtually no market for 30 year mortgage rates at current price levels.  The market is fully addicted on QE.

Getting off QE heroine does not look like it will happen.  So why the constant discussions of tapering?  The Fed is a giant confidence game and many are starting to realize this.  Banks understand that any sort of unwind will impact the stock market so better to chase yields in real assets and crowd out regular households.  This is why inequality keeps getting worse in the US in spite of the stock market being near a record high.  The financial industry is fully addicted to this QE heroine and will say anything to keep their pusher providing this easy money.  $4 trillion will not be the only milestone that is crossed even though the taper is always being mentioned.
