The price of Freedom is eternal vigilance. Questioning the motives of your Government doesn't mean you're paranoid. Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean your Government doesn't have ulterior motives.

This is spot on. Paranoid, wacked out, freak.. etc are just ways to convince people to accept secrecy of our government. I wonder what the founding fathers would think of our government agencies that operate outside of the checks and balances system.

were it left to me to decide whether we should have a government without newspapers, or newspapers without a government, I should not hesitate a moment to prefer the latter. Thomas Jefferson

"billions of dollars of unlocked value."

Translation: What was previously, for generations, free public airways, can be converted into proprietary frequencies for which BILLIONS of dollars in periodic access fees can be charged by private companies to whom our politicians give those airways, for the appropriate "campaign donation", of course.

Do you really think the air tax isn't coming? Even disregarding all the regulation on auto emissions and industry, what about the carbon tax? I don't have to tell you that part of the air is carbon in the gases humans exhale.

The Carbon Tax is DOA.

The FOIA files blew the lid off of the IPCC "AGW" scam, and subsequent confessions about falsifying the glaciers data, the rain forest data, and loosing the 1962-1990 temp data has rendered the AGW "proofs" null and void. The corruption by the head of the IPCC put the icing on the coffin of AGW. The Copenhagen meeting was a failure. Countries around the world are backing away from the IPCC AGW and the Carbon Tax. The Journals which were once held captive by the AGW mafia are busting free and publishing work by apposing scientists.
