U.S. Is Starting To Look Like The Early Days Of Mao’s Communist China!!! CERTAINLY THOUGHT-PROVOKING.
U.S. Is Starting To Look Like The Early Days Of Mao’s Communist China
March 21, 2014 by The Dollar Vigilante
THINKSTOCK
Many people like to watch movies or read novels as a way to relax and get away from work and other stresses of day-to-day life. I, on the other hand, find nonfiction to be much more interesting than almost anything dreamed up by a fiction writer. So when I want to relax and get away from things, I like to read nonfiction books and documentaries.
Given what is going on in China lately, I have been nearly obsessed with learning about China’s history. It is easily one of the most interesting cultures on Earth, with thousands of years of dynasties, warlords, communism, capitalism, wars and atrocities.
Of all the atrocities, the worst by far was committed during Mao Zedong’s Communist China revolution and the typically Orwellian-named, “The Great Leap Forward.”
That leap eventually ended up with the deaths and starvation of somewhere between 20 million and 45 million people. Despite this devastation, American oligarch David Rockefeller said this of the period: “Whatever the price of the Chinese revolution, it has obviously succeeded not only in producing more efficient and dedicated administration, but also in fostering high morale and community of purpose. The social experiment in China under Chairman Mao’s leadership is one of the most important and successful in human history.”
As I watched a recent documentary on this period, it struck me how eerily similar the early years of Mao, leading to those deaths, were to today’s United States and Obama.The Similarities
Hope and change: As with Obama, Mao was swept into power under great fanfare as a savior by a society of people who had been so impoverished and war-torn that they put their faith in this man with his ideas. As with Obama, the first few years didn’t go too terribly, giving some people hope. But soon after taking power in 1950, Mao quickly got China involved in the Korean War.
Land reform: During that same period, Mao went to work on taking land away from landowners and giving it to the people. Done differently, but with the same end goal, the U.S. has been decimating small-farm owners through regulations, taxes and even armed raids, ending up with large corporations owning more and more of the productive land. The large corporations, through the U.S. blend of fascism and socialism, end up owning more and more of the land. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, the number of farms in the United States has fallen from about 6.8 million in 1935 to only about 2 million today. According to Farm Aid, every week some 330 farmers leave their land for good. This isn’t done as overtly as it was during Mao’s time of just killing landowners, as the U.S. government has perfected propaganda; but the end result is essentially the same.
Suicides: In Shanghai during that time, suicide by jumping from tall buildings became so commonplace that residents avoided walking on the pavement near skyscrapers for fear that suicides might land on them. In the U.S. today, even The New Yorker writes about the “suicide epidemic.” Between 1999 and 2010, the number of Americans between the ages of 35 and 64 who took their own lives rose by almost 30 percent. Among young people in the United States, suicide is the third most common cause of death; among all Americans, suicide claims more lives than car accidents, which were previously the leading cause of injury-related death.
Media suppression and targeting: Mao launched the “Hundred Flowers Campaign” urging all those with different opinions to express themselves. It was a ruse, however; and he used this to target opponents, eventually killing 500,000 landowners. In the United States it is done differently; but groups, like the Tea Party, have been targeted by the Internal Revenue Service for having opposing views. And it is well known in the mainstream media that you cannot speak out against the current regime. Journalist Abdulelah Haider Shaye was imprisoned under Obama’s orders for speaking out about U.S. involvement in the Mideast. And, currently, according to Reporters Without Borders, the U.S. stands at No. 46 on the World Press Freedom Index, just after Romania and one ahead of Haiti.
Only those in government prospered: During Mao’s time, it was said that only those in government and those in the capital cities connected to the government prospered. This is very similar to what is happening today in the United States. Government workers currently get paid 45 percent more than their counterparts in the private market. And while most of the country languishes in depression-level conditions, Washington, D.C., is flourishing. The Washington metro area includes a whopping six of the 10 most affluent counties in the Nation.
Lies and statistics: As things got worse in Mao’s China, the government took to overtly lying about nearly every statistic. It lied egregiously about crop production and the number of deaths due to starvation. Doctors were not allowed to list “starvation” as a cause of death. In the United States it is similar in that nearly all government statistics are heavily manipulated to paint a better picture of what is really going on. Unemployment figures, for one, are adjusted so that if people give up looking for work they are not counted as being “unemployed” anymore. The U.S. government currently says that the rate of unemployment is 7.3 percent. However, the percentage of the population that is employed is at lows not seen in 40 years. And computing the unemployment numbers the way they were computed prior to 1994 (before they took out “long-term discouraged workers” from the figures), as computed by Shadowstats.com, shows an unemployment rate of 23 percent.
Famine and starvation: As things got worse, by the end of the 1950s, tens of millions of Chinese died of starvation. The United States has much more past wealth to live upon and still has the printing of the U.S. dollar to keep things more afloat temporarily; but even with these advantages, one in six Americans is on food stamps. And 1 in 4 children in the United States is on food stamps. In other words, already, a very large percentage of the population cannot even afford food to eat without assistance. Without government assistance, they would starve.The Differences
It should be said that China in the mid-20th century and the United States in the early 21st century are two very different places. China, at that time, was a very poor and backward place, whereas the United States — due to semi-free markets for centuries — is incredibly advanced and has built up a lot of wealth.
As well, communication technologies such as the Internet do not allow most government’s today to wholesale slaughter people. In the United States today, these same goals are undertaken through fines, taxation, regulation, inflation and criminalizing nearly every human activity. Nearly half of all people under the age of 23 in the United States today have been arrested, and the U.S. has the world’s largest prison population (25 percent of the prisoners, yet only 5 percent of the world population). Through these means, the U.S. government can look to be less heinous than it would by outright murdering thousands or millions of people but essentially with the same results.
Because of these differences, we should not expect to see the United States follow the exact same path of Mao’s China. But the similarities of the two times are striking.
The Dollar Vigilante has published this cartoon from the Chicago Tribune in 1934 on numerous occasions because it so perfectly explains what is going on in the U.S. today.
Spend! Spend! Spend!: The U.S. government has been spending and going into deficits at rates that would have shocked people even 15 years ago. The debt of the U.S. government has increased $6.666 trillion since Obama took office. When Obama was first inaugurated on Jan. 20, 2009, the debt of the U.S. government was $10,626,877,048,913.08, according to the Treasury Department’s Bureau of the Public Debt. As of Jan. 31, the latest day reported, the debt was $17,293,019,654,983.61 — an increase of $6,666,142,606,070.53. The total debt of the United States did not exceed $6.666 trillion until July 2003. In the little more than five years of the Obama Presidency, the U.S. has accumulated as much new debt as it did in its first 227 years.
Blame the capitalists: Fomenting a class war, the heavily socialist-indoctrinated youth and poor are constantly told “greedy corporations” are causing their problems. This can be seen clearly in all the recent minimum wage rhetoric.
Junk the constitution: The Constitution and the Bill of Rights have been all but ransacked in recent years — specifically since 9/11 and the Patriot Act. People collecting rainwater or building a pond on their own property or living sustainably off the grid have been deluged by Federal agencies threatening them with massive fines or jail time. And the rising police state and the endless accounts of police brutality are just other examples of this.
Declare a dictatorship: Obama continues to wage wars without approval from Congress, issue executive order edicts and create kill lists. And in his most recent State of the Union address, he even went so far as to say that he was going to go around Congress to get things done… all to wild applause. That is a dictatorship.The Fall Of America
Those plans, as laid out in the Chicago Tribune cartoon from 1934 are falling exactly into place. That, combined with the fact that Obama’s U.S. is following a very similar path to Mao’s China should be enough to make the hairs on the back of your neck stand up.
Unfortunately, it only keeps getting worse. Capital controls are coming into effect in July under the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA); so if you don’t have yourself or your wealth well outside of the United States by this point, your time is running out.
For this reason, The Dollar Vigilante has set up an urgent conference called the Crisis Conference, scheduled for April 30 to May 4 in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. If you still have significant assets inside the United States, I urge you to seriously considering attending.
The U.S. is currently similar to the early days of Mao. How it ends up is anyone’s guess, but it isn’t going to be pretty.

SHRINKING AARP IS LOSING PLENTY OF SENIORS - VERY IMPORTANT READ!! Make sure to pass it along!!!!
>>>> AARP's Fall from Grace
>>>>
>>>> It only takes a few days on the Internet and this will have reached 75% of the public in the USA .
>>>>
>>>>
>>>> This letter was sent to Mr. Rand who is the Executive Director of AARP.
>>>>
>>>>
>>>> THIS LADY NOT ONLY HAS A GRASP OF 'THE SITUATION' BUT AN INCREDIBLE COMMAND OF THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE!
>>>>
>>>>
>>>>
>>>> Dear Mr. Rand,
>>>>
>>>>
>>>> Recently you sent us a letter encouraging us to renew our lapsed membership in AARP by the requested date. This isn't what you were looking for, but it's is the most honest response I can give you. Our coverage gap is a microscopic symptom of the real problem, a deepening lack of faith. While we have proudly maintained our membership for years and long admired the AARP goals and principles, regrettably, we can no longer endorse its abdication of our values. Your letter stated that we can count on AARP to speak up for our rights, yet the voice we hear is not ours.
>>>>
>>>>
>>>> Your offer of being kept up to date on important issues through DIVIDED WE FAIL presents neither an impartial view nor the one we have come to embrace. We do believe that when two parties agree all the time on everything presented to them, one is probably not necessary. But, when the opinions and long term goals are diametrically opposed, the divorce is imminent. This is the philosophy which spawned our 200 years of government.
>>>>
>>>>
>>>> Once upon a time, we looked forward to being part of the senior demographic. We also looked to AARP to provide certain benefits and give our voice a power we could not possibly hope to achieve on our own. AARP once gave us a sense of belonging which we no longer enjoy. The Socialist politics practiced by the Obama Regime and empowered by AARP serves only to raise the blood pressure my medical insurance strives to contain. Clearly a conflict of interest there! We do not understand the AARP posture, feel greatly betrayed by the guiding forces that we expected to map out our senior years and leave your ranks with a great sense of regret. We mitigate that disappointment with the relief of knowing that we are not contributing to the problem anymore by renewing our membership. There are numerous other organizations which offer discounts without threatening our way of life or offending our sensibilities and values.
>>>>
>>>> This Obama Regime scares the living daylights out of us. Not just for ourselves, but for our proud and bloodstained heritage. But more importantly for our children and grandchildren. Washington has rendered Soylent Green a prophetic cautionary tale rather than a nonfiction scare tactic. I have never endorsed any militant or radical groups, yet now I find myself listening to them. I don't have to agree with them to appreciate the fear which birthed their existence. Their borderline insanity presents little more than a balance to the voice of the Socialist Mindset in power. Perhaps I became American by a great stroke of luck in some cosmic uterine lottery, but in my adulthood I CHOOSE to embrace it and nurture the freedoms it represents as well as the responsibilities.
>>>>
>>>>
>>>> Your website generously offers us the opportunity to receive all communication in Spanish. ARE YOU KIDDING??? The illegal perpetrators have broken into our 'house', invaded our home without invitation or consent. The President insists we keep these illegal perpetrators in comfort and learn the perpetrator's language so we can communicate our reluctant welcome to them. I DON'T choose to welcome them, to support them, to educate them, to medicate them, or to pay for their food or clothing. American home invaders get arrested. Please explain to me why foreign lawbreakers can enjoy privileges on American soil that Americans do not get? Why do some immigrants have to play the game to be welcomed and others only have to break and enter to be welcomed?
>>>>
>>>>
>>>> We travel for a living. Walt hauls horses all over this great country, averaging over 10,000 miles a month when he is out there. He meets more people than a politician on caffeine overdose. Of all the many good folks he enjoyed on this last 10,000 miles, this trip yielded only ONE supporter of the current Regime. One of us is out of touch with mainstream America .. Since our poll is conducted without funding, I have more faith in it than ones that are driven by a need to yield AMNESTY (aka-make voters out of the foreign lawbreakers so they can vote to continue the government's free handouts). This addition of 10 to 20 million voters who then will vote to continue Socialism will OVERWHELM our votes to control the government's free handouts. It is a "slippery slope" upon which we must not embark .
>>>>
>>>> As Margret Thatcher (former Prime Minister of Great Britain) once said "Socialism is GREAT - UNTIL you run out of other people's money".
>>>>
>>>>
>>>> We have decided to forward this to everyone on our mailing list, and will encourage them to do the same. With several hundred in my address book, I have every faith that the eventual exponential factor will make a credible statement to you. I am disappointed as all get-out! I am more scared than I have ever been in my entire life! I am ANGRY! I am MAD as hell, and I'm NOT going to take it anymore!

SPAMLISH: NON-ENGLISH SPEAKING WEST AFRICAN IMPERSONATES THE SECRETARY OF HOMELAND DEFENSE Posted: 24 Mar 2014 01:25 AM PDT One of the hallmarks of a scam is the non-standard English and phraseology that makes the message look comical … Presented for your amusement and amazement is an scam e-mail pitch that appears to be coming from Italy; but features a telephone calling code linking to the West African country of Benin (bordered by Togo to the west, by Nigeria to the east and by Burkina Faso and Niger to the north.) Major General (Ret.) Timothy J.Lowenberg is a real person that retired as the Adjutant General (Chief Administrator) of the Washington National Guard on July 28, 2012. He is now an Adjunct Professor at the Seattle School of Law and a Vice President of Gordon Thomas Honeywell Governmental Affairs. The least likely person to be connected to a West African e-mail scam. As much as I dislike President Obama’s Secretary of Department of Homeland Security, Jeh Johnson, believing that he lacks the military, investigation, and leadership experience for this particular position, I am sure that he can formulate a better pitch to give me free money. -- steve  |
FLIGHT MH 370, GLOBAL WARMING LINK FOUND BY PROGRESSIVE SOCIALIST DEMOCRATS Posted: 23 Mar 2014 07:22 PM PDT It was bound to happen sooner or later that radical and activist progressive socialist democrats link the disappearance of Malaysia Airlines Flight MH 370 to global warming. Whether to attract an audience or out of ignorance of science, this story is beyond the pale …
Have you ever wondered why chaotic weather systems and other natural phenomena cannot be adequately modeled by the best computer models yet derived? It is simply because there is no adequate modeling of chaotic systems that are reliable enough to project results into the future. And, survive the test of comparing the model’s output to the reality years later. Similar to the current weather models that are unable to replicate 17 years of a global cooling trend and a rising concentration of atmospheric carbon dioxide; almost all showing a continual temperature rise. Deep oceanic currents are tricky and convoluted naturally, with little or no perceptible influence from man. Influenced more by the Sun’s energy output, the rotational and precessional dynamics of the Earth, vulcanology and plate tectonics, and natural underground shifts of seabed. As for the shifts in winds, another natural phenomena, blame nature and the fact that nature abhors a vacuum – where weather changes on the winds as high pressure areas rush into low pressure areas to bring about a calm equilibrium. So, how can you ascribe the behavior of the ocean currents and the shifting winds to man’s alleged interference with the global climate? Beats me – and most other scientists skeptical of the line being sold by the radical progressive socialist democrats to advance their toxic socialist agenda. An agenda that reduces our living standard, erodes our freedoms, and brings about a centrally-planned government that is significantly larger in size and scope of activities. Using junk science to convince the public that these draconian public policies are critical to saving the planet and allowing the progressive socialist democrats and their special interests to loot the public treasury. Bottom line … I call bullshit on those that claim that global climate change is affecting our search for the missing Malaysia Airlines Flight MH 370. If anything, those conducting the search should be dropping tracker buoys to monitor the currents – that is if they even think they known where the missing aircraft might be located. Enough with the global climate change nonsense. How about calling a spade a spade and reducing the political corruption that is turning America into a socialist French province ruled by Mexican-style kleptocrats? Throw the corrupt progressive socialist democrats out of the House and Senate in 2014, and out of the White House in 2016. -- steve  |
YOU CANNOT BELIEVE EVERYTHING YOU SEE ON THE INTERNET! Posted: 23 Mar 2014 06:49 PM PDT Do not believe everything you see … And, even the information providers tell you not to rely on their information … Bottom line … Awareness and common sense are they key to surviving the Internet age. steve  |
