CNN: "U.S Government Shutdown in next couple days looming" - No more than essential services provided
Just saw this on CNN as well.


Government shutdown again looms as possibility

7:15 am September 22, 2011, by Jay

Another government shutdown crisis?

Really?

It’s hard to conceive of a better way to shatter what little faith remains in Washington. And of course, for some people that may be just the point.

By a margin of 195-230, the U.S. House yesterday rejected a continuing resolution needed to fund the government beyond Sept. 30, when the fiscal year ends. Most House Democrats voted against the resolution because they oppose deep cuts made in other programs to fund emergency-relief measures, arguing that such cuts in rough economic times will cost thousands of jobs.

Conversely, a group of almost 50 Republicans voted against the bill — against pleas from their own leadership — because in their eyes it didn’t cut deep enough. In fact, they insist that their party’s leadership break the spending deal that was agreed to just last month with the Senate and President Obama.

Buddy, I hate to have to be the one to break it to ya, but if you're still depending on CNN to tell you anything other than the latest Dancing with the Stars results, you're on the wrong forum.

You know...

Them recycling this tactic this soon makes one thing clear...

TPTWTW (the powers that wish they were) are truly frightened to the core. They are desperate and afraid....and in order to make themselves feel like they have half of a chance they need to make others feel fear. They want others to beg and plead and yell out how much they need them and their failing paradigm.


Anybody that does not get that or wants this broken fucking paradigm to keep on...well...I feel sorry for you. You'll get crushed by the very wave you try to hold back.
I'm just a figment of your imagination ;-)

Ummm, really?

Ok, right now, the people that created all the systems/processes for people to receive benefits through social security would be out of work overnight.
Only people that are in the computer center will be deemed essential and a few oncall people.

Anything new will halt. NO new cases, no new filings, nothing.

If you need or become eligible for benefits, there will be no one there to take your claim.
In addition, over 2 million workers nationwide join the already 14 million unemployed.

The thing is, it will start a chain of events that will cascade throughout the country.
Bills don't get paid, unemployment checks stop because there is no money.
16 million people, that stop paying bills overnight.
It will effect businesses overnight.
Banks won't be getting their money.
Prices for everything will begin rising fast.
Consulting companies will fold.

All the workers at all levels are out on their butts.
The workers in the cafeterias, the cleaning crews, the security forces will be cut back and only Homeland Security will take their place.

These people of all walks of life, who have paid into the system will be dropped by the system.
It will affect transportation and retail businesses, etc., a domino effect.

Loss of basic social services, unrest, and inflation.
Yeah, sounds good!

That's just it, it was designed to fail and fail big.
Our job is not to hold it so it will fail even more terribly or to encourage it to fail now...but it is to change the source of why it is designed to fail.
Not treat symptoms, which is what Washington was designed to do.
Build the biggest house of cards possible before making it collapse.

Change the source.
Take back control of the money supply before it is too late.
The clock is ticking and it is approaching midnight.
That is the heart of it all.
Without taking it back, we all fall.

Are you guys like just pretending you want to work and are collecting big money from the government in unemployment for years and years and shopping all the time to feed the consumer based economy?

Is this all a big vast conspiracy so that the poor working Joes like the rest of us, don't know you are living high off the hog?

That Wallstreet protest looks like something paid for or something.

Are there people like lining up for food stamps or anything that you would expect if 14 million people were unemployed?
The future is uncertain and the end is always near.
