Meanwhile our real industries are being shipped overseas…. or getting cheap labor from mexico. Why do I feel like our country is a dying animal upon which the financial vultures are in a feeding frenzy? It is as if we have no leaders — only scam artists trying to keep us ignorant while we are being destroyed by their avarice. I feel like I am in a ship with no captain, only pirates. I think it was William Pierce who used the analogy of the robbers who used to put up false lighthouse lights to mislead ships to their doom on rocks in storms, and then they would loot them after they crashed…

I’m also glad that you referenced that Rolling Stones article on Goldman Sachs by Matt Taibbi. It is outstanding.

Is Tim Geithner Jewish? I looked at this and the information I found indicates otherwise.

As for the number of Jews in the world, when Mark Twain was confronted with the ‘fact’ that there were only some five million Jews in all the world (this was well over 120 years ago) he expressed skepticism, saying: “only five million Jews?–but I’m personally acquainted with at least that many!”

Indeed, the Jews seem to be everywhere. This disparity may be because there are probably as many half-Jews out there who identify as Jews but aren’t officially counted as Jews. These ’shadow’ (under-counted) Jews probably doubles the number of Jews worldwide.

Some think the attack on the World Trade Center was a case of Jewish insurance fraud for the owner, Larry “Pull It” Silverstein, to collect massive amounts of insurance money.

Cases of Jewish insurance fraud are constantly being uncovered; for instance, 3 days ago – http://jta.org/news/article/2010/02/25/1010816/jewelers-who-staged-hasidic-robbery-arrested

The authorities complain that the East European Hebrews feel no reverence for law as such and are willing to break any ordinance they find in their way. . . . The insurance companies scan a Jewish fire risk more closely than any other. Credit men say the Jewish merchant is often “slippery” and will “fail” in order to get rid of his debts. For lying the immigrant has a very bad reputation. In the North End of Boston “the readiness of the Jews to commit perjury has passed into a proverb.” (Ross 1914, 150)

This used to be a common fraud among Jews, well known to insurance companies that refused on principle to sell certain kinds of policies to Jews.
arson is still known as ‘jewish lightening’

Much of the problem is that we chronically mis-identify the “elite”.

Ideally, the elite are supposed to be altruistic and enlightened leaders with the honesty, intelligence and discipline of demigods and saints; failing that, despotic philosopher-kings who are morally and intellectually second to none; at worst, affectionate patriarchs who make mistakes, but at least try to do the right thing when they finally snap out of it.

Sadly, what we actually have is a jar of ravenous tapeworms writhing in a bath of steroids, criminals bold and ruthless.

Where should we look for a true elite? Academia? With a very few notable exceptions (e.g., Dr. MacDonald), one might as well look in a cathouse. In government? Why not just take a midnight swim in Leech Lake? In the financial sector? Better leave your money at home…all of it! In the military or police? Not too likely; those are the paycheck-driven enforcers for the abovementioned tapeworms, whores, and leeches!

If we want a true elite, we’d better get out the fine-toothed comb and scrape one together from scratch. The best way to start is to give up any outdated illusion that a true elite exists within the current establishment. In fact, the establishment is expertly designed from the ground up to exclude and disenfranchise anyone even resembling a true elite. The secrets of success: anything goes if you don’t get caught, everything’s for sale, and everybody scratches everbody else’s back. To deviate from these rules is to have the social ladder slip out from beneath one’s feet like gold-plated banana peel.

In case it is unclear what this means, it means that we can’t trust academia about who’s smart, we can’t trust the government about who’s honest, and we can’t trust the financial sector, period. In this corrupt atmosphere, credentials carry negative weight across the board. Rare exceptions exist, but they can only be rooted out one by one, and by their deeds shall ye know them.

So the question is, how does one distinguish an elite from a tapeworm, or for that matter Joe Sixpack, without benefit of credentials and references from smooth-talking, well-tailored dirtbags in government, business and academia, especially when hostile aliens are forever trying to insert their own moles and dishrags in place of the genuine article?

One thing’s for sure: it will take almost as much insight as it takes to actually BE an elite.

This used to be a common fraud among Jews, well known to insurance companies that refused on principle to sell certain kinds of policies to Jews.

I heard from a small stockbroker that Goldman Sachs was started by Jews who could not get a job on Wall Street, because they were Jews. “We’ll show them!” was the founders’ attitude. I guess they showed us….and they continue to show us…

Could it be that the percentage of racist sociopaths is higher in Jewish populations than among the “goyim”?

Well, good luck knitting sweaters, sighing over George Washington, and yearning for a “return to the Constitution” by electoral upset, fellas. I wouldn’t be surprised if one day I tuned in and saw that Mark Levin was A3P’s first presidential candidate.
