Anonymous vs Scientology

This is an attempt to bring to light the real story between Anonymous and Scientology.

Anonymous began their attack on the Church of Scientology, visibly, about a year ago. What is it all about, these people parading around with masks and signs? It is about freedom of speech, human rights and the issue of Religion.

In this century, religion itself is under attack, not only at the governmental level but at the philosphic level as well. Some think that Evolution is the grand answer to life, and others, think that God created all. Not one of these people has been able to link the two or prove that either is right. Most realize that this universe didn’t just happen, it was set in motion. That allows for a lot of theories, ask any scientist.

The Church of Scientology believes that life was first, that man is only following what was set in place, even the evolutionary theories fit into this. Life being most proficient at creating more life has become what we see today.

L. Ron Hubbard was a true philosopher, investigating life on his own, paid for by his own work and without help from anyone. He proved how the mind worked and produced a working technology that to this day still helps people. In the process he stepped on some pretty big toes, psychiatry in particular, funded by government tax dollars went after him. Using tax organizations, the media and police at times, they tried to put him out of business, he just moved and continued his research.

Today the Church is a huge organization encompassing most countries in the world, providing drug rehabilitation, moral support, counseling, training in just about everything you can think of, and most of all human rights. In fact the Church has approached and helped many countries, people and even the UN with human rights. They have steadfastly worked on the problem since the Church’s conception.

Many however, become members of the Church then have problems. Not only with the internal structure, because it is so different, but because they cause problems inside it and even commit crimes. They get expelled and they get angry.

What a perfect situation for an organization to exploit, especially when you have peoples tax dollars and some angry people. They want to get even and psychiatry wants to get rid of the church.

Why not use people’s outrage to fuel this?

Why not let the uninitiated know the “truth.”

The “Anonymous” are paid for their work, in fact many are recruited from universities and colleges because they need their money for tuition. They have never stepped foot inside a Church of Scientology. The ones that have keep their faces hidden and their connections with psychiatry or money.

Their intention to do harm to an organization that fought for their rights is abominable.

It should be known that most of this information is easily accessible by anyone and if you are not sure ask a church member they will tell you themselves.

This opposition is being caused by one thing, rapid growth of the Church of Scientology. It is expanding rapidly and organizations in the mental health field are threatened. It has nothing to do with the fact that a cure exists for mental problems, it has everything to do with money. Huge billions of dollars being fed into psychiatry all over the world. Not a few million dollars  going to a church.

Anonymous must remain anonymous or the truth will surface and then the public will really be outraged. Outraged at organizations bent on controlling churches, human rights and their tax dollars.

One more note here, our civilization is dying due to unethical immoral people, to listen to bad news is the common thing. Rumor mongers stalk the world, you find stories behind stories in every paper, new story, whether on TV or printed. Truth is hard to find, often hidden.

In every great movement there are trials and tribulations. As was with Christianity, so it is with Scientology.

In this case Scientology, I have no doubt will win. But we the population of the world are about to have our eyes opened as to how far governments, psychiatry and our beloved monetary system are willing to go. Their cruel laws affect us all, their misspending of our tax dollars and militaristic attitude may just kill us all. Something new is needed and that is what Churches are all about. The civilize people.  Every great civilization has had a religion in its midst.

No matter how you look at it there is no gray here, only black and white, only people that are honest and true will survive and I have never met an anonymous honest man–he always stands up when called and confronts the truth.

Anonymous needs to be brought to light.

The Fallacy of Evolution

I decided to write this as I have seen too many articles promoting Evolution as the end all, of all scientific discoveries.

The truth is it is only the beginning of our understanding of the universe, as a race of humans. Evolution has always been there doing its thing for all time not just here on earth, facts point that out. This universe is so huge we could never be the only race in it.

But, we can be wrong. Evolution does not negate religion, it enhances it. What a novel thought?

How could evolution enhance religion? Well religion deals with spiritualism and spirits are what we really are…just ask any monk who has studied all his life. He knows, the western world still has trouble with that.

The fact is older civilizations than ours have known about spiritualism for thousands of years. We being of the great 20th century are better and further above them, they are peasants and workers in poor countries. But we don’t have their history, yet.

The Bhuddists, the Taoists and earlier religions took all this into account. Much has been lost but worse yet the stupidity of western learning has disregarded many of these huge databases of knowledge.

We forget that many countries and indeed man himself had his survival aided by religions. In the ancient times we went from a religion that praised idols to the current beliefs in spiritualism. They all helped civilize our world, whether we agree with them or not.

Today’s world would not exist without them. The number of religious people in the world is increasing thanks to several things. Science itself is now finding truths about life that have been known for a long period of time. People accepted those things on faith..a not very stable way to do it but it was their choice. Secondly, the state of the world, its criminality, hate, racism, wars, pestilence, mental illness, thievery, abuses of all kinds, all are increasing. Because of governmental systems based on what was believed to be true science, Eugenics.

The science of genetics was intertwined in this, Eugenics was the main reason for the second world war, and many things still are working with that as the end product. Psychiatry is bent on bringing Eugenics back after all this time, and it has almost succeeded except for a valiant few. Most of whom belong to religions.

Evolution is not wrong, it just isn’t taken in context with religion. Spiritualism experiences evolution through past lives etc, there are many “unproven theories”. But the truth is still left after all is said and done.

Our societies have flourished under religion and failed under mans own materialistic control. Today we will only survive by seeing the truth.

Ethics and Business/Government

The definition of Ethics is The Reason and contemplation of optimum survival. Often misunderstood to mean Justice and likely to be found in the dictionary under Morals or moral codes. There is a difference.

Ethics is not just about being honest or clean, dirty or criminal, it is about being pro Survival for all.

If you look at our current system of moral codes, laws and justice itself, it is failing miserably. Only the completely senseless could miss what is going on. People living on the street, welfare roles out of control, citizens being controlled by drugs, Laws that make no sense and are not enforceable. Murder, rape, theft, misandry and banditry in general are at an all time high. More people are killed by all these things than some wars that have been fought. In fact more people are dying from mis-diagnosis and errors in judgement in our medical system than the Viet Nam war. We talk of needed changes that never seem to come, like non polluting cars or common sense rules in taxation.

What is needed is a fresh look. All of this adds up to a non survival ending. An ending that is being perpetrated by a few greedy and selfish individuals.

If this is so how do we fix the problem? It seems to have gone to a point where it is irrepairable.

Well there is a technology of Ethics and it is written to be understood and applied. It needs to be introduced to those who need it most. Those who are failing at life, not surviving well and those who want their businesses to grow. People need to see it work to actually believe it can be that easy to use and apply. Ethics makes all areas of life easier to handle and makes them repairable as well.

Firstly though, we need to discuss more about it to make it clear What it is.

It is not magic, although it sometimes works like it.

What is it … ? It is Reason. Basically it is the reason and contemplation of OPTIMUM survival. In other words it includes all. For example a man would not poison a river with chemical so that he might survive better selling paper or wood products. He would recognize the non survival in his formula for survival and do something about it.

Ethics allows change to occur without a great deal of damage to other areas of life and promotes the survival of the person or business using it.

That is what our world needs to survive the next few years and into the future…because if we keep going the way we are we won’t have a future.

Ethics are based on survival technology, there are some rules to it and they are quite simple. If you follow them you will notice that your decisions become more correct, more effective and allow for people to fit in the picture.

Ethics allows for corrections to be made without its confusing other half..(justice) being brought into play. Ethics is an individual thing, it always starts with the individual. It has some basic information to apply in order to make things go right.

The first thing to know is that all living things are trying to survive…that is the main theme. Survive can be broken down into different areas dealing with survival. The first being survival as self, the second as family or sex, the third as groups, the fourth as all mankind, the fifth as survival through animals and plants, the sixth as survival through the physical universe, the seventh as any thing spiritual and lastly the eighth dynamic of survival as god or infinity.

If one applies the knowledge of survival to a specific problem then looks at how each dynamic is affected, we will see the majority of dynamics aligned in a specific way. If they all point to harm being done to the majority of the dynamics we would say that was a non survival solution. If the majority point to a helping of each dynamic in some way the alignment would be a survival one.

It is not a hard problem to solve with this technology in fact it is deceptively simple, as such things are. The best answers always are simple. With each individual starting to use this technology, eventually you can change the way the world works, especially if our governments and businesses use it.

So what have we learned in 2 millennia?

“The budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled, public debt
should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and
controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed lest
Rome become bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on
public assistance.”

Cicero – 55 BC


>>Evidently nothing!<<

The Educated Truth

For us poor slobs who don’t understand edumacation….we are treated like idiots from a group of people who see us as unintelligent, unthinking idiots.

This sometimes hits me as being a little unreal, but the proof is in front of us.

If something works -it works. Knowledge is that way too. Most of us consider people with knowledge to have commonsense. Nothing could be further from the truth. In fact people who deal with knowledge tend to be insecure, controlling and authoritarian. All failures as far as good management, humanitarianism and stability of people and countries are concerned.

Most people who use authority look upon the rest of us as being stupid, needing control and incapable of making decisions that will help us survive well. This is taught to these people through colleges, universities and senior institutions (such as government). This has been brought about by political correctness, vested interest and fraud in education. Our current education system is just a shadow of what it was in the 1800’s, in fact most kids may know what a computer is but not any of the data about the world around them. We have been dumbed down.

Why?

Because we are trained to not rock the boat, to follow,unquestioningly, we are safe as long as we do so. We call this political correctness and other phrases that mean “tow the line or else you will never be in a position of power”.

Most of the people expecting this of us are not our well known politicians or people who deal with us daily, these people isolate themselves from us, making our laws and deciding our fates.

People like judges, political moguls, mental health professionals, scientists, and professors, – people who require our agreement and funding to keep them in place. They, in their fear of the loss of their power over us, use it against us. Small things said at a high level become big things at a lower one. Examples of this are everywhere, from political bungles to laws that stun us into unbelieving silence. These people do not want the limelight, only the power to run our lives. In their ignorance they think that they are educated. They do not know right from wrong and even try to deny that it exists. When talking about right or wrong they talk about grey areas and the fact that there is no black or white. You will hear this as an everyday slogan now.

Well there is a black and white, all problems have sources, people are the only source of problems on this planet …animals don’t talk, write or control. Animals act on a reactive level only, they do not think as such. So do these controlling authoritarian types. They would be successful if we were in the stone age, but this is no stone age. We control nuclear weapons, mind weapons, biological weapons, and yet have few human rights.

In this day and age human rights, safety and security should be a prime goal for our leaders and us. We no longer can afford outmoded technologies, old ideas based in reactivity, our planet is in severe danger from us! Just because we live in a nice place, have all the amenities, does not mean we are surviving well.

People have to have some responsibility, to others, to themselves, to the environment and to the planet as a whole. Until we can make these “educated” men see this we will no longer continue to suffer, die, and carry on their inappropriate system with them at the top. In their ignorance they play the game of governing, making new rules at a catastrophic rate.

Have you ever heard of someone who said that ignorance of the law didn’t make a difference? Who do you know that has read all the books of the law and knows them? Not many! When these laws are made do they make them to be enforceable? Of course they do! But who can enforce so many laws? Our system is collapsing under the weight of them. New edicts are made every day, common sense has left the room and now we have to deal with all of this, enforced to the death if necessary. Often the news is full of police action, distraught people, Criminals everywhere and death and destruction.

Ever wonder why? Our system is creating this!

People are basically good and can be raised to levels of intelligence and ethicality, if given the chance. We do not need to be enforced into doing anything- to do it right! We do know the difference if taught correctly, our parents try their best to instill in us this ability. Information is the key.

So where do we start to change this? Well there are a few places, but the most accurate information I have ever seen is on the Citizens Commission for Human Rights website. They are reforming psychiatry. It has such control over our politicians, judges and medical system that it has usurped power from all of us. These people have been operating outside the law and when it suited them have changed laws to protect themselves.

We have become a part of a system that is quickly degenerating, allowing more confusion, enturbulation and insanity. It will not be long if we do not change the course of this, before we are all living on the street. Jobs will not exist, government will have no control, rebellion will be the order of the day. And the New World order will exist with our own Darth Vader to defeat…do you really want that?

Currently in most of the world, there is a movement to control the family, and this is happening in civilized countries like Canada and Australia. It is permeating the fabric of our societies, making men outcasts, forcing legal battles and creating havoc in our families. This also has its roots in psychiatry. Their control of law, judges and courts has given their new laws oppressive power. This is how you create rebellion in a civilized country.

Take a man’s children, his money, his reason for living and he will want to kill someone or something. It is happening as we speak. You see it on the news daily. Soon, very soon there has to be change.

There is a war going on for our minds…. take a look at this site and decide for your self.

see…www.cchr.org

Why do most of our efforts fail? What is the solution?

In retrospect everything seems easier to understand and so it is with this concept. We learn by experience. We are an island world nation with no input from outside, much like japan, we have become stultified.

Our society is beleaguered by many serious problems. Crime, insanity, politics, fraud and lack of compassion are just a few.

We deal with this every day and have become inured to the way of life and the way to get around in it.

We will never see an end to this if we continue on the way we are going, in fact we will probably destroy the entire planet in our madness.

So lets step aside and look at it from a different viewpoint. The viewpoint of someone outside.

He would see larger things going on such as governments and large businesses operating and causing damage ecologically and environmentally, wars and power struggles over monies,  starvation, whole areas of the planet under the rule of people incapable of ruling or providing for a population.

It is a pretty bleak picture, most governments try to cover it up. We have all known about bureaucracy and graft, the old boys club and now the old girls club. They all have one thing in common…the inability to change.

Our systems set this “crazy think” into place when we are young, making us agree with group decisions. Decisions that can only be made by one individual. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t advocate tyrants, but our systems act like one even though composed of group members.  Why does it work this way and our decisions get so warped that common sense can no longer hold?

The answer is simple, we see no other way to sway a decision, we are trapped into the group.

Which means we have to follow the agreed upon group rules. Politics is the most noticable, watching a politician sell his concepts is like watching a medicene man. All smoke and mirrors with no responsibility and that is the key.

If we force public opinion to change laws to force companies and governments to follow common sense we will come out ahead. Our inability to get government and business to follow basic ethics procedures is our downfall. If we join a group that is putting their ethics in, we will get what we want.

Do you know of such a group that works planetwide and has the speed to change things before they get worse?  I do and they are doing it everyday.  No government or business money is involved, they are fought every inch for their gains and they have made huge gains in human rights, government laws, education, drug rehabilitation, criminal rehabilitation and reconstruction.

Why our civilization is dying

The Reason that more communication of information does not necessarily mean more intelligent outcomes

  1. Confront….as the mind is incapable of handling or looking at pain we get a veering away from painful subjects, objects and people. The end result is news systems that cannot look at a subject objectively, can only use data that is “adjusted” in perspective and who think that authority is the best source of knowledge.

  2. Communication… the rules of communication require confront to be there before all else, this does not take into account the emotional tone of the person first. People who have had much pain in their lives are down toned..in other words, apathy, sympathy, grief, covert hostility, anger and antagonism. All of these are negative emotions, emotions higher toned people do not want to be around. This creates an artificial barrier between higher and lower tones. This means that communication will not happen with understanding between lower to lower and lower to upper tones. This results in huge misunderstandings and often, war, marriage breakup, murder, and a host of other problems.

  3. Reality…is affected as lower tones have a different reality than higher and are unable to see what a higher tone is seeing, hear what they are hearing etc. Reality is only perceived through the filter of emotion. There is no such thing as a total lack of emotion.

  4. Affinity…is the bond that holds reality and communication together, it affects how perception works. Because affinity is emotion based, such as the feelings one would have for a child, spouse, friend etc., one can love them as much as one wants but if you are in anger or lower, that will affect the communication one shows (reality). Abuse, neglect and many other things come from this.

  5. Having large volumes of communication of data…ie more access to data, more communication lines to other people etc., does not work if one is on a lower tone level. Communicating nothing but painful experiences, and doing nothing but things that do not easily fit into other peoples reality’s. Outcomes become assured to fail, big projects fail and societies fail. Currently the in vogue answers being given to our problems are tearing our society apart. The organizations created with the mandate to “look after us” are killing us with their misunderstandings, low tones, low reality and authoritarian nature. Our politicians do not understand them and neither do our public.

  6. Common Sense…Everyone understands common sense when shown correct data regardless of tone. A good analogy is the road crew who tears up the road to install new sewers, then after repaving it comes back a week later to tear it up again and install the connections to the houses. It is insanity and that is what we are dealing with. Our current organizations do not understand insanity and think it only affects a very small amount of people. This is because looking at insanity would be dealing with painful subjects and that means veering away from it to the easiest answer.

  7. The answers are already out there and have been here for over 60 years, fought heavily by government and organized authorities, mental health agencies and misdirected individuals all of course receiving our tax dollars as their rewards.

  8. See http://www.dianetics.org Mental illness is completely curable and does not require drugs, hypnosis or shock treatment. Painful things do not repair painful incidents in ones life.

What is ascendance?

It is the belief of today’s mental health professionals and scientists that our population will reach a state of ascendancy with their help.

We as a nation and world should question this ideology spawned by those with vested interests, greed and the need to control others. We have seen and are seeing the results of the New World Order in many countries our own included.

The walking wounded are everywhere now. When I was a child and young man, there were few walking wounded most people were busy doing the daily things of life. Getting through school, keeping food on the table and minding their neighbors. There were very few on drugs, or psychiatric treatment, only the very obvious were. Now they accumulate at restaurants, meeting places, and group homes. They are everywhere and so many are on the drugs that of everyone you know, I could say as many as 50% of them are on some psychiatric drug.

All these people not fitting the mold need to be molded by these drugs and given the “goal” of being normal.

Life is no longer like that today and everywhere you go people blame it on the larger population, the weather, the new technology, the times etc… All that is a way of not acknowledging the real problem. We have become state owned nurslings, not only do we not fight this authoritarian nightmare we spout its philosophy and credence everywhere.

It wouldn’t matter except that the truth is very far from what we are fed. Our differences make us strong, as humans we have always differed, but never before have we been stacked up like cord-wood all looking and acting the same. This is the dream of the Nazi and the tyrant. People all doing his bidding, we are very close to becoming that dream, all we need is the leader, the plans have been laid and put into action.

Where do you stand….alone?

Production, Money, and wealth

A very honest opinion giving the reality of cash this is very close to a quote by L Ron Hubbard.  Read on…

The Money Speech

The following is an excerpt from the great philosopher Ayn Rand’s epic Atlas Shrugged, the tale of heroic entrepreneurs, targeted by collectivists. The speaker, Fransisco d’Anconia, is at a dinner party when a politically correct woman makes a quip about how money is the root of all evil. The following is Fransisco’s response.

“So you think that money is the root of all evil?” said Francisco d’Anconia. “Have you ever asked what is the root of money? Money is a tool of exchange, which can’t exist unless there are goods produced and men able to produce them. Money is the material shape of the principle that men who wish to deal with one another must deal by trade and give value for value. Money is not the tool of the moochers, who claim your product by tears, or of the looters, who take it from you by force. Money is made possible only by the men who produce. Is this what you consider evil?

“When you accept money in payment for your effort, you do so only on the conviction that you will exchange it for the product of the effort of others. It is not the moochers or the looters who give value to money. Not an ocean of tears not all the guns in the world can transform those pieces of paper in your wallet into the bread you will need to survive tomorrow. Those pieces of paper, which should have been gold, are a token of honor–your claim upon the energy of the men who produce. Your wallet is your statement of hope that somewhere in the world around you there are men who will not default on that moral principle which is the root of money, Is this what you consider evil?

“Have you ever looked for the root of production? Take a look at an electric generator and dare tell yourself that it was created by the muscular effort of unthinking brutes. Try to grow a seed of wheat without the knowledge left to you by men who had to discover it for the first time. Try to obtain your food by means of nothing but physical motions–and you’ll learn that man’s mind is the root of all the goods produced and of all the wealth that has ever existed on earth.

“But you say that money is made by the strong at the expense of the weak? What strength do you mean? It is not the strength of guns or muscles. Wealth is the product of man’s capacity to think. Then is money made by the man who invents a motor at the expense of those who did not invent it? Is money made by the intelligent at the expense of the fools? By the able at the expense of the incompetent? By the ambitious at the expense of the lazy? Money is made–before it can be looted or mooched–made by the effort of every honest man, each to the extent of his ability. An honest man is one who knows that he can’t consume more than he has produced.’

“To trade by means of money is the code of the men of good will. Money rests on the axiom that every man is the owner of his mind and his effort. Money allows no power to prescribe the value of your effort except the voluntary choice of the man who is willing to trade you his effort in return. Money permits you to obtain for your goods and your labor that which they are worth to the men who buy them, but no more. Money permits no deals except those to mutual benefit by the unforced judgment of the traders. Money demands of you the recognition that men must work for their own benefit, not for their own injury, for their gain, not their loss–the recognition that they are not beasts of burden, born to carry the weight of your misery–that you must offer them values, not wounds–that the common bond among men is not the exchange of suffering, but the exchange of goods. Money demands that you sell, not your weakness to men’s stupidity, but your talent to their reason; it demands that you buy, not the shoddiest they offer, but the best that your money can find. And when men live by trade–with reason, not force, as their final arbiter–it is the best product that wins, the best performance, the man of best judgment and highest ability–and the degree of a man’s productiveness is the degree of his reward. This is the code of existence whose tool and symbol is money. Is this what you consider evil?

“But money is only a tool. It will take you wherever you wish, but it will not replace you as the driver. It will give you the means for the satisfaction of your desires, but it will not provide you with desires. Money is the scourge of the men who attempt to reverse the law of causality–the men who seek to replace the mind by seizing the products of the mind.

“Money will not purchase happiness for the man who has no concept of what he wants: money will not give him a code of values, if he’s evaded the knowledge of what to value, and it will not provide him with a purpose, if he’s evaded the choice of what to seek. Money will not buy intelligence for the fool, or admiration for the coward, or respect for the incompetent. The man who attempts to purchase the brains of his superiors to serve him, with his money replacing his judgment, ends up by becoming the victim of his inferiors. The men of intelligence desert him, but the cheats and the frauds come flocking to him, drawn by a law which he has not discovered: that no man may be smaller than his money. Is this the reason why you call it evil?

“Only the man who does not need it, is fit to inherit wealth–the man who would make his own fortune no matter where he started. If an heir is equal to his money, it serves him; if not, it destroys him. But you look on and you cry that money corrupted him. Did it? Or did he corrupt his money? Do not envy a worthless heir; his wealth is not yours and you would have done no better with it. Do not think that it should have been distributed among you; loading the world with fifty parasites instead of one, would not bring back the dead virtue which was the fortune. Money is a living power that dies without its root. Money will not serve the mind that cannot match it. Is this the reason why you call it evil?

“Money is your means of survival. The verdict you pronounce upon the source of your livelihood is the verdict you pronounce upon your life. If the source is corrupt, you have damned your own existence. Did you get your money by fraud? By pandering to men’s vices or men’s stupidity? By catering to fools, in the hope of getting more than your ability deserves? By lowering your standards? By doing work you despise for purchasers you scorn? If so, then your money will not give you a moment’s or a penny’s worth of joy. Then all the things you buy will become, not a tribute to you, but a reproach; not an achievement, but a reminder of shame. Then you’ll scream that money is evil. Evil, because it would not pinch-hit for your self-respect? Evil, because it would not let you enjoy your depravity? Is this the root of your hatred of money?

“Money will always remain an effect and refuse to replace you as the cause. Money is the product of virtue, but it will not give you virtue and it will not redeem your vices. Money will not give you the unearned, neither in matter nor in spirit. Is this the root of your hatred of money?

“Or did you say it’s the love of money that’s the root of all evil? To love a thing is to know and love its nature. To love money is to know and love the fact that money is the creation of the best power within you, and your passkey to trade your effort for the effort of the best among men. It’s the person who would sell his soul for a nickel, who is loudest in proclaiming his hatred of money–and he has good reason to hate it. The lovers of money are willing to work for it. They know they are able to deserve it.

“Let me give you a tip on a clue to men’s characters: the man who damns money has obtained it dishonorably; the man who respects it has earned it.

“Run for your life from any man who tells you that money is evil. That sentence is the leper’s bell of an approaching looter. So long as men live together on earth and need means to deal with one another–their only substitute, if they abandon money, is the muzzle of a gun.

“But money demands of you the highest virtues, if you wish to make it or to keep it. Men who have no courage, pride or self-esteem, men who have no moral sense of their right to their money and are not willing to defend it as they defend their life, men who apologize for being rich–will not remain rich for long. They are the natural bait for the swarms of looters that stay under rocks for centuries, but come crawling out at the first smell of a man who begs to be forgiven for the guilt of owning wealth. They will hasten to relieve him of the guilt–and of his life, as he deserves.

“Then you will see the rise of the men of the double standard–the men who live by force, yet count on those who live by trade to create the value of their looted money–the men who are the hitchhikers of virtue. In a moral society, these are the criminals, and the statutes are written to protect you against them. But when a society establishes criminals-by-right and looters-by-law–men who use force to seize the wealth of disarmed victims–then money becomes its creators’ avenger. Such looters believe it safe to rob defenseless men, once they’ve passed a law to disarm them. But their loot becomes the magnet for other looters, who get it from them as they got it. Then the race goes, not to the ablest at production, but to those most ruthless at brutality. When force is the standard, the murderer wins over the pickpocket. And then that society vanishes, in a spread of ruins and slaughter.

“Do you wish to know whether that day is coming? Watch money. Money is the barometer of a society’s virtue. When you see that trading is done, not by consent, but by compulsion–when you see that in order to produce, you need to obtain permission from men who produce nothing–when you see that money is flowing to those who deal, not in goods, but in favors–when you see that men get richer by graft and by pull than by work, and your laws don’t protect you against them, but protect them against you–when you see corruption being rewarded and honesty becoming a self-sacrifice–you may know that your society is doomed. Money is so noble a medium that is does not compete with guns and it does not make terms with brutality. It will not permit a country to survive as half-property, half-loot.

“Whenever destroyers appear among men, they start by destroying money, for money is men’s protection and the base of a moral existence. Destroyers seize gold and leave to its owners a counterfeit pile of paper. This kills all objective standards and delivers men into the arbitrary power of an arbitrary setter of values. Gold was an objective value, an equivalent of wealth produced. Paper is a mortgage on wealth that does not exist, backed by a gun aimed at those who are expected to produce it. Paper is a check drawn by legal looters upon an account which is not theirs: upon the virtue of the victims. Watch for the day when it bounces, marked, ‘Account overdrawn.’

“When you have made evil the means of survival, do not expect men to remain good. Do not expect them to stay moral and lose their lives for the purpose of becoming the fodder of the immoral. Do not expect them to produce, when production is punished and looting rewarded. Do not ask, ‘Who is destroying the world? You are.

“You stand in the midst of the greatest achievements of the greatest productive civilization and you wonder why it’s crumbling around you, while you’re damning its life-blood–money. You look upon money as the savages did before you, and you wonder why the jungle is creeping back to the edge of your cities. Throughout men’s history, money was always seized by looters of one brand or another, whose names changed, but whose method remained the same: to seize wealth by force and to keep the producers bound, demeaned, defamed, deprived of honor. That phrase about the evil of money, which you mouth with such righteous recklessness, comes from a time when wealth was produced by the labor of slaves–slaves who repeated the motions once discovered by somebody’s mind and left unimproved for centuries. So long as production was ruled by force, and wealth was obtained by conquest, there was little to conquer, Yet through all the centuries of stagnation and starvation, men exalted the looters, as aristocrats of the sword, as aristocrats of birth, as aristocrats of the bureau, and despised the producers, as slaves, as traders, as shopkeepers–as industrialists.

“To the glory of mankind, there was, for the first and only time in history, a country of money–and I have no higher, more reverent tribute to pay to America, for this means: a country of reason, justice, freedom, production, achievement. For the first time, man’s mind and money were set free, and there were no fortunes-by-conquest, but only fortunes-by-work, and instead of swordsmen and slaves, there appeared the real maker of wealth, the greatest worker, the highest type of human being–the self-made man–the American industrialist.

“If you ask me to name the proudest distinction of Americans, I would choose–because it contains all the others–the fact that they were the people who created the phrase ‘to make money.’ No other language or nation had ever used these words before; men had always thought of wealth as a static quantity–to be seized, begged, inherited, shared, looted or obtained as a favor. Americans were the first to understand that wealth has to be created. The words ‘to make money’ hold the essence of human morality.

“Yet these were the words for which Americans were denounced by the rotted cultures of the looters’ continents. Now the looters’ credo has brought you to regard your proudest achievements as a hallmark of shame, your prosperity as guilt, your greatest men, the industrialists, as blackguards, and your magnificent factories as the product and property of muscular labor, the labor of whip-driven slaves, like the pyramids of Egypt. The rotter who simpers that he sees no difference between the power of the dollar and the power of the whip, ought to learn the difference on his own hide– as, I think, he will.

“Until and unless you discover that money is the root of all good, you ask for your own destruction. When money ceases to be the tool by which men deal with one another, then men become the tools of men. Blood, whips and guns–or dollars. Take your choice–there is no other–and your time is running out.”

Meet the Anti social personality

A suppressive person is a person who seeks to suppress any betterment activity or group. The suppressive person, also called an antisocial personality, works to upset, continuously undermine, spread bad news and denigrate other people and their activities. A suppressive person  opposes anyone doing better in life. Such people are not always easy to identify; however, they can be known by specific characteristics:

1. He or she speaks only in very broad generalities. “They say…” “Everybody thinks…” “Everyone knows…”
2. Such a person deals mainly in bad news, critical or hostile remarks, invalidation and general suppression.
3. The antisocial personality alters, to worsen, communication when he or she relays a message or news.
4. A characteristic, and one of the sad things about an antisocial personality, is that it does not respond to treatment or reform.
5. Surrounding such a personality we find cowed or ill associates or friends who, when not driven actually insane, are yet behaving in a crippled manner in life, failing, not succeeding.
6. The antisocial personality habitually selects the wrong target. If A is the obvious cause, the antisocial personality inevitably blames B or C or D.
7. The antisocial cannot finish a cycle of action. The antisocial becomes surrounded with incomplete projects.
8. Many antisocial persons will freely confess to the most alarming crimes when forced to do so, but will have no faintest sense of responsibility for them.
9. The antisocial personality supports only destructive groups and rages against and attacks any constructive or betterment group.
10. This type of personality approves only of destructive actions and fights against constructive or helpful actions or activities.
11. Helping others is an activity which drives the antisocial personality nearly berserk. Activities, however, which destroy in the name of help are closely supported.
12. The antisocial personality has a bad sense of property and conceives that the idea that anyone owns anything is a pretense, made up to fool people. Nothing is every really owned.
Fortunately, such individuals are a very small percentage of the population. But because society as a whole has not had any means to identify them, the amount of havoc wreaked by the anti-social personality throughout the centuries is incalculable.
Virtually all the turmoil and conflict in an individual’s life can be traced to contact with such personalities. Individual men and women can usually sort out their differences through communication if they are not adversely influenced, often unknowingly, by an antisocial personality attempting to inflame, instead of resolve, conflicts
