John Perkins on Globalization

by bcoe Tags: Economics, John Perkins, Video
24 02 2012

If you want to understand global wealth and poverty, global economics, or you simply just want to understand how some nations have so much more wealth than others, this interview with self-confessed economic hitman John Perkins is one of the most important things to watch.

As a former insider, John Perkins knows the secrets of the powerful. It’s hard to find more credible testimony than from someone who used to commit the very acts he is exposing to the world. Sorry folks, but this game we call global economics is rigged, and John Perkins tells it how it is.

If you can invest a little time to watch this video, dig into your curiosity, and are open to new truths, you will be richly rewarded.

1. 911 MYSTERIES

“911 Mysteries demolishes the ‘official’ 911 conspiracy theory. See for yourself what really happened in the 3 demolished buildings in the weeks before 9/11. Millions around the world are realizing that they are being lied to – not in a small, lazy way, but in a big way. It’s time to ask hard questions, many of which 911 Mysteries helps to answer. 90 minutes of evidence and analysis, filled with eyewitness testimonials. Point-by-point review of the official story set alongside clear science. The question is not one of politics or nationalism or loyalty, but one of strict and simple physics. Does steel melt in open air fires? What caused the core to vanish in seconds? No agenda. No finger-pointing. Just the facts and the questions.”

2. 9/11 BLUEPRINT FOR TRUTH

The most scientific analysis of the collection of movies on this page. Consists of a lecture by Richard Gage of Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth, with video and audio clips. An extremely careful analysis thoroughly falsifying the official story, focusing particularly on the collapse of the twin towers and building seven. Click here to see a graph of their analysis of the hypothesis that the buildings collapsed due to demolition rather than fire. http://www.ae911truth.org/

3. SEPTEMBER CLUES

“This comprehensive analysis of the 9/11 television broadcasts shows how the mainstream media actively participated in the 9/11 false-flag operation aimed at generating public support for illegal wars. This media deception has effectively fooled the world for too long. Please watch with an open mind and make your own conclusions.” http://www.septemberclues.info/

4. LOOSE CHANGE – FINAL CUT

“Loaded with powerful, new footage and in-depth interviews with the likes of Steven Earl Jones, an American physicist who has discovered undetonated explosive material in multiple samples of dust from the World Trade Center collapses, this documentary presents a wide array of evidence both known and unknown…until now. Eight years later, the American people continue to live in the aftermath of 9/11 and deal with its ongoing repercussions. Is this just another machination of power on the timeline of history? If so, the real question is what happens next? Or better yet, what can we do to prevent another 9/11?” http://www.loosechange911.com/

Getting the Public to Participate in Democracy

by bcoe Tags: Capitalism, Democracy, Sociology and Politics
24 06 2010

I have to admit frustration is getting most of my attention right now after spending the past week or so trying to find a way to use the internet to create a platform to get people to speak up for themselves in their own democracy. I’ve been working out ideas that would be able to get the voices of the people to those who represent them in congress.

What happens when you contact a politician?

The major obstacle is overcoming citizen apathy. In devising a tool that will allow internet users to contact their representatives, outside of the contact forms of the senators and representatives’ websites, the tool must be so simple that it requires almost no effort for the user besides entering their message. Think Twitter, or Facebook’s “What’s on your mind?”

My research led me to many interesting projects, but eventually to two sites created by Jim Gilliam. He created a site almost exactly like what I was thinking, where we can contact our representatives through Twitter. Check it out at www.govluv.org

Then I saw his site www.whitehouse2.org. Basically, this site allows users to write a one sentence “priority” to Obama, like, “Please end the phony war on terror,” and then other users can vote on it. Priorities are ranked and voted on and a further step of contacting your representatives is possible, and doing this and other “extra” steps earns the user points; more points equals more visibility for your priority. The goal is to get the population to say what they are interested in and participate in democracy. It’s a great idea and is something similar to what I was putting together in my mind. Fortunately, he developed the site on an open source platform and this could be the direction I want to go in developing my own site with developer, James Dabgotra. Jim has created a great tool for us to experiment with.

But the frustration, in my characteristic style, is in observing that the country is run on democratic voices, but not that many voices are saying anything. The reason I want people to speak out is because I know that the power elite are fine – thank you very much – with everyone focused on the Lakers or on getting their own TV show in Oprah. Don’t get me wrong, these things are great, but just about every area of civilization is in collapse and solutions require participation. It’s like a ship full of a thousand people is sinking but only two are bailing the water out. So maybe you can understand why I am frustrated because the work that needs to be done is extremely urgent but, people don’t seem to see the relevance to their life.

But I say this: Are we not a democracy? Are we not free to voice our opinions? Well let’s get busy! We must speak up about at least one subject that we are interested in and hold our elected officials accountable for their leadership. Is this not a cause worth at least an e-mail or phone call a week?

Find your representatives, and contact them about something:

Good luck. The world awaits your voice.
