Episode-545- Five More Lies that Attack Individual Freedom and Liberty
Podcast: Play in new window | Download (12.5MB)
Today’s show expands on yesterday’s and gives you five more lies that most American’s believe to be true. No conspiracy theories or tin foil hat concepts here. This stuff is all wide open and easy to verify as fact by reading simple history and looking at current realities. Again think about the fact that this show was done in advance of the economic recession. Before the election of Barack Obama and the fully commanding take over of the House and Senate by the democrats.
At the time I did this show the Dow Jones was still hovering around 12,000 and was a few weeks away from the massive October crash and later the February of 09 cliff dive. There were no Tea Parties, the unemployment rate was about 5.5%. People like me at that time were being publicly called nuts for saying that now was the time to protect yourself and that bad times were on the way.
Sorry for the background noise in today’s show, while I think the audio is over all much better my mobile studio seemed to attract every semi truck on the highway on that day.
Tune in today to get my thoughts on,
- The lie that the “governments role is to solve the problems of the people”
- How ridiculous the concept of a “government that would solve individual problems” would be in a discussion among the Founding Fathers
- The lie that “America is the freest nation in the world”
- One thing that you can do in many countries that will get you arrested at gun point in America
- The lie that we need to “spend more on national defense”
- The fact that the U.S. spends more money on our military then the combined military budgets of every other nation in the world combined
- The reality that the U.S. economic system is now best defined as fascist
- The lie that it is “normal for the price of goods and cost of living to continually rise over time”
- The effect of having a false paper currency backed by nothing and what a 1935 silver quarter still buys today
- The lie that “politicians should be experienced”
- How a government of “career politicians” have destroyed our freedom, yet not had to live with the consequences of their decisions as private citizens
- Why a Kansas farmer, Texas rough necker or Detroit auto worker would all be better as our senators then the people we have in office today

Yes- re: not the freest nation on earth. You only have to look at western Europe! I did some touring of europe with a band, and found out quickly that they have freedoms we don’t. Much does have to do with ‘vices’ such as public drinking. As long as you don’t interfere with others you can drink. Here, I get a ticket or a night in jail. Not for being drunk, not for causing a ruckus. For a bottle. AND THIS IS EUROPE – THE ‘NANNY STATE”!!!!!! We micro-manage our Sugar, trans-fats, tobacco, alcohol usage. yet we are less healthy!
Rich, we also have freedoms they don’t. See what happens if you protect yourself from someone who threatens your life or the lives others. Look at what happens if a person decides to set up residence in your home (a squatter) while you are away. Try just purchasing a firearm to keep in your home while in Europe.
The truth is, freedom is quickly dieing out across the globe. Your best bet is to make yourself as independent as possible and find a place where the government doesn’t care what you do, as long as it does not interfere with others.
“What the hell does alcohol have to do with firearms?” Good question! Great show. Nice Thailand example.
Great show Jack. Agree with 99.9%…wish more Americans did as well.

@ Ben, Jack actually recently touched on this. Alcohol, Tobacco and firearms are all major trading commodities in a post monetary system. Is that the why behind the agency? I have no idea but maybe. I think maybe it’s the “vice/sin” factor. I will never understand the need for such an agency in the “free-st(?) nation on earth.” Just another control device by .gov IMHO.
