In an effort to connect with each one of you on a more personal level than my music allows, I have decided to keep a daily blog, The Sweet Spot (I was going to call it the "Nooner" for your daily "piece", but wanted to avoid trivializing important issues in exchange for humor). Within it, I will attempt to cover areas important to you (suggestions are welcome), as well as deal with issues central to the contemporary plight of mankind. So here goes:
The Swine Flu. Does anyone remember SARS? What about Anthrax? Each one of these dis-eases (I emphasize DIS-ease) was dubbed a possible "pandemic", only to cause little more than public panic perpetuated by the terror-inciting media. It's called problem-reaction-solution, and here's how it works. The world financial gurus--otherwise known as the people who control EVERYTHING--create an enemy to unify a group of people against; in this case, Swine Flu is the enemy that unites the American people in a concerted effort to extinguish a problem they don't really know anything about. This causes people to focus on that issue (Swine Flu), while distracting them from thinking about more pressing, serious issues (ie, the Global Financial Crisis), enabling underhanded tactics to be used in order to further an agenda (one world currency/government). This might seem far-fetched, but let's think about the history of some of these other "pandemics".
SARS- in early 2003 the media warned of an impending disaster with a disease called SARS. Coincidentally (I guess), the U.S. invaded Iraq in March of 2003, while the "sky was falling" back home from the horrible pandemic of SARS. Unfortunately, Wikipedia lists the mortality rate at UNDER 1% for people under 24, and it doesn't increase beyond 15% for ANY AGE GROUP. Quite the pandemic...
Anthrax- In October of 2001 Anthrax prominently surfaced as a "terrorist" weapon, again mobilizing Americans to panic and combat a non-entity. Unfortunately, on October 7th, 2001 the U.S. invaded Afghanistan, beginning a military occupation that continues to this day.
Despite history, many people will continue to deny the possibility that communicable dis-eases could be used to mobilize people in a state of panic, and further the underhanded agendas proposed by the people in power. My question is this: How long are you willing to roll the dice that the leaders of this world are benevolent? Should we wait until we're all in FEMA camps around the country, while our government mercilessly attacks the rest of the world in the name of safety? I, for one, have seen enough of evidence to know where I stand...
