How the US Government Created the ‘Drug Problem’ in the USA

“The bottom line on this whole business has not yet been written.”
Eighteenth-century German philosopher Georg Friedrich Hegel long ago developed, among other things, what he called the principle of “thesis, antithesis, synthesis” to explain the process of deliberately enacted social disorder and change as a road to power. To achieve a desired result, one deliberately creates a situation (“thesis,”) devises a “solution,” to solve the “problems” created by that situation (“antithesis,”) with the final result being the ultimate goal of more power and control (“synthesis.”) It is unsurprising Karl Marx and his disciples like Lenin and Trotsky, as well as the US government in its so-called War On Drugs, made this process a keystone of their drive for total control of all individual actions that, in their views, were not, in Mussolini s terms, “inside the state” and thus controllable by the same.

Venezuela President Hugo Chavez took the stage at COP15 and launched his own protest. He declared, “If the climate was a capitalist bank, the rich governments would have saved it.”

Before linking the economic crisis to the climate one, Mr. Chavez’s scathing critique invoked the ghost of Karl Marx and praised street protesters drawing some applause from the audience.

Morality vs. Material Interests – Myths of Our Time

(PaulCraigRoberts) – It is conventional wisdom that it was the draft that ended the Vietnam war. According to this explanation, cowardly college students subject to the draft and their unpatriotic families, forced an end to the war. This is Karl Marx’s explanation. Material interests, not empty morality, are said to have brought the war to an end. Continue reading

The Audacity of Conceit

Intelligent idiots, smart fools, multi-degreed morons – lots of monikers could describe a category of individuals dismayingly prominent in the ruling elites of the West. They are the people so divorced from reality, so engrossed in bookish pursuits that – for all their undoubted intellectual accomplishments and often as a direct consequence thereof – they invariably end up with egg on their faces whenever they try to engage in practical activities.

The Global Coup d’Etat

The term “New World Order” refers to the advent of a Totalitarian World Government. The current push towards achieving this nirvana has at it’s core, a powerful and secretive group known as the Illuminati, which has been conspiring to take control of the the world for millennia. They aim to do this by the introduction of an autonomous Global State, which would supersede and replace the sovereign nations of the world. Continue reading

The Global Economic Crisis: Bad and Worsening

In a new article, economics professor Richard Wolff explains the current crisis in Marxian terms. It “emerged from the workings of the capitalist class structure. Capitalism’s history displays repeated boom-bust cycles punctuated by bubbles. They range unpredictably from local, shallow and short to global, deep and long.” Clearly we’re now in one of the latter and potentially the worst ever.

Wolff states that recurring crises and chronic instability come with capitalism, and only “social change to a non-capitalist class structure” will bring relief and stability. He explains how we got here: Continue reading

Bailout marks Karl Marx’s comeback

In his Communist Manifesto, published in 1848, Karl Marx proposed 10 measures to be implemented after the proletariat takes power, with the aim of centralizing all instruments of production in the hands of the state. Proposal Number Five was to bring about the “centralization of credit in the banks of the state, by means of a national bank with state capital and an exclusive monopoly.”
