A Letter from the CEO of Westgate Resorts

From the desk of David Siegel, the founder and CEO of real estate company Westgate Resorts

To All My Valued Employees,

As most of you know our company, Westgate Resorts, has continued to succeed in spite of a very dismal economy. There is no question that the economy has changed for the worse and we have not seen any improvement over the past four years. In spite of all of the challenges we have faced, the good news is this: The economy doesn't currently pose a threat to your job. What does threaten your job however, is another 4 years of the same Presidential administration. Of course, as your employer, I can't tell you whom to vote for, and I certainly wouldn't interfere with your right to vote for whomever you choose. In fact, I encourage you to vote for whomever you think will serve your interests the best. [...]

Now, the economy is falling apart and people like me who made all the right decisions and invested in themselves are being forced to bail out all the people who didn't. The people that overspent their paychecks suddenly feel entitled to the same luxuries that I earned and sacrificed 42 years of my life for. Yes, business ownership has its benefits, but the price I've paid is steep and not without wounds. Unfortunately, the costs of running a business have gotten out of control, and let me tell you why: We are being taxed to death and the government thinks we don't pay enough. We pay state taxes, federal taxes, property taxes, sales and use taxes, payroll taxes, workers compensation taxes and unemployment taxes. I even have to hire an entire department to manage all these taxes. The question I have is this: Who is really stimulating the economy? Is it the Government that wants to take money from those who have earned it and give it to those who have not, or is it people like me who built a company out of his garage and directly employs over 7000 people and hosts over 3 million people per year with a great vacation?

Obviously, our present government believes that taking my money is the right economic stimulus for this country. The fact is, if I deducted 50% of your paycheck you'd quit and you wouldn't work here. I mean, why should you? Who wants to get rewarded only 50% of their hard work? Well, that's what happens to me

Business is at the heart of America and always has been. To restart it, you must stimulate business, not kill it. However, the power brokers in Washington believe redistributing wealth is the essential driver of the American economic engine. Nothing could be further from the truth and this is the type of change they want.

So where am I going with all this? It's quite simple. If any new taxes are levied on me, or my company, as our current President plans, I will have no choice but to reduce the size of this company. Rather than grow this company I will be forced to cut back. This means fewer jobs, less benefits and certainly less opportunity for everyone.

So, when you make your decision to vote, ask yourself, which candidate understands the economics of business ownership and who doesn't? Whose policies will endanger your job? Answer those questions and you should know who might be the one capable of protecting and saving your job. While the media wants to tell you to believe the "1 per-centers" are bad, I'm telling you they are not. They create most of the jobs. If you lose your job, it won't be at the hands of the "1%"; it will be at the hands of a political hurricane that swept through this country.

You see, I can no longer support a system that penalizes the productive and gives to the unproductive. My motivation to work and to provide jobs will be destroyed, and with it, so will your opportunities. If that happens, you can find me in the Caribbean sitting on the beach, under a palm tree, retired, and with no employees to worry about.

Riots Near You

Last week, when hundreds of thousands of people in Madrid, Barcelona Spain took the the streets to protest the austerity cuts made by the Spanish government.  The protestors called for the resignation of all parliamentary representatives.  Their voices could be heard throughout Spain when they demanded the immediate  formation of a new government.

Spain's unemployment rate has skyrocketed exceeding 50% for those under 40 years of age.  To make matter worse the National government of Spain is handing out BILLIONS to large financial institutions in the broader Euro Zone.  The protestors streamed into the streets, an ocean of change, roaring with the peoples voice.  Young and old alike surrounded the Spain's parliament building making sure that their voices would be heard. No longer willing to be silent the people of Spain confronted their government head on.


The corrupt government responded by indiscriminately firing upon women and children, old and young.  Spain's riot police were brutal savages assaulting  boys, women, young, old, it mattered not to the police who serve not the people bu the globalist bankers, the arm of the global elite.



Soon, these riots will soon be making their way across the Atlantic ocean to the shores of America.



Be sure that police or military personnel will NOT take the side of the American people.  The current American government considers those attending any anti-government rallies, whether they be Occupy or Tea Party protests, to be activities related to domestic terrorism. No longer is freedom of speech an honorable thing.

 Now, we live in a country with a government that says things like...
 'See something, Say Something."
<----------Here is their god

The American government is actively preparing for this contingency, having introduced laws through  executive orders which are specifically designed to stifle free speech in public areas, detain indefinitely and reeducate those who act against the national interests of the United States, and eliminate permanently those who cannot be pacified.Government plans for mass casualty events are being enacted as we speak. 

I ask AGAIN...

"When did the American people become the enemy of the American government?"

Deep Field ASTRONOMERs are being murdered

Plain ans simple here are the facts.  I am not making accusations or assertions that is for you the reader to decipher.

The Largest Civilian Army in the World

This has been said before, but it bears repeating...


In Wisconsin  last year over 600,000 well armed, well trained, seasonal deer hunters took the wild country and mustered for duty. All, armed at their own expense, trained, most likely by generational family members, and excellent marksmen.  Add to that the 750,000 who are in the woods of Pennsylvania this week, along with the deer and moose hunters in Michigan numbering over 700,000, combine that with the nearly 300,000 duck, deer, and hog hunters in West Virginia and you have one of the largest peace time armies in the world.  


That is not even counting all the hunters in the great Southern States of Texas, Louisiana, Alabama, Mississippi, Tennessee, and South Carolina.  Add those great Southern Hunters to the mix and you have over 4,500,000 million highly armed, well trained, disciplined, armed men.  



That is more men under arms in a peace time army than Iraq, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Turkey, India, Pakistan, France, Germany, Brittan, Australia, Spain, Japan. 



The 2nd Amendment exercised by law abiding citizens  is the 5th column of the American Military.

Martial Law Threatened by FED

I was in a conversation with a highly intelligent gentlemen the other day.  He is a Professor of Political Science who truly believes that government is an honest, worthy, endeavor. That men and women t go into government with the best intent and do the best they can. 

We got into a discussion about the 2008 Bank Bail Out and I informed him that the United States Congress was forced by the threat of Martial Law if they did not open up the purse strings.  

His reply was..."I don't believe that."

The following is my Fact filled reply:   

 
Retort #1

Rep Brad Sherman D-California 27 District ON C-SPAN declared the following.

 "That if the 700 Billion dollar Bank Bail out was NOT granted immediately that in closed door meeting Congress was threatened with Martial Law."

"Several Congressional members have alluded to a private meeting with Paulson and Bernanke in which vague economic Armageddon was threatened if Congress did not immediately hand Hank $700 billion, with no oversight.  As the political debate raged over the next 15 days, several members expressed a sense of shock over the severity of the secret warnings, while refusing to divulge the details to a concerned public.  Representative Sherman of California later accidentally revealed that members were warned that Martial Law would follow if the $700 bailout plan were not approved quickly.  Days later it was confirmed that the warning was delivered by Treasury Secretary Paulson.

Goldman Sachs was first to deploy the banker scheme of extracting funds from public coffers.  In addition to paying interest on $1.1 trillion of U.S. Treasuries held by the Chinese, the banking system and the U.S. dollar were saved through pushing the problem of global insolvency onto the Eurozone nations.
In 2008, when Hank Paulson went to the Congress and said that they had to bail out the banks for $700 billion or martial law would be declared, they weren’t lying,” says Posel.  Goldman Sachs CEO Henry Paulson’s extortion of a $700 billion TARP bill from Congress with the threat of martial law was essentially a classic bait-and-switch scheme.  Americans were told that the unprecedented appropriation was earmarked for a jobs and economic stimulus program.  Instead, the money was redirected to the “too big to fail” banks, with subsequent hearings between Congress and Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke yielding no disclosure as to which banks received the money under TARP.

“In a series of phone calls, administration officials have told bankers that the administration will not allow a default to happen even if the debt cap isn’t raised by the August 2 date Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner says the government will run out of money to pay all its bills, including obligations to bond holders,” reports Fox Business.
Once again, while striking fear into lawmakers and the American public by stoking fearmongering about the inevitability of a catastrophic collapse, the administration is fully aware that the system, maintained as it is by a fraudulent debt-based fiat money system, can always be kept artificially inflated for that bit longer.
Indeed, the doomsday rhetoric is likely to be nothing more than a ploy to increase the administration’s bargaining power and its bid to seize the power of the purse from Congress. We saw an almost identical tactic used during the 2008 bailout debate, which was eventually rammed through on the back of bellicose threats about martial law and economic Armageddon.


The threat of Martial law was widely believed to be the stick needed to force Congresses hand.  After seeing this information given by US representatives in Congress on C-Span you can not deny that Martial law was threatened. 

The preceding facts bear out my statement in class that...

FACT: "Martial Law was threatened if the Bail out was not FORCED through Congress."

George Sorros is dumping Stock and Buying GOLD

Billionaire Leftists George Soros has recently liquidated a major portion of his equity holdings in major Financial stocks as of the quarter ending June 30, 2012.
The stocks in question are purely financial companies, as well as, banks which range from Citigroup (420,000 shares), JP Morgan (701,400 shares) and Goldman Sachs (120,000 shares).

The valuation  of the stock liquidation may exceed  $50 million-US.

What trips a red light here is that Soros, who is known for finical audacity,  has dumped stocks in favor of purchasing nearly 900,000 shares totally over 130,000,000 dollars-US of Gold visa-vi  the SPDR Gold Trust.



The red flag here is that when Billionaires begin jumping ship, especially Billionaire Leftest Liberals with deep connections to the current White House Administration.   This I fear portends a very serious market correction in the very near future.  Those of Soros ilk do not merely thrown hundreds of millions of US-dollars to the wind., if there’s anyone with an inside track, it’s Ole Georgie Soros.

Soros, ” has opined in the media that current financial crisis around the globe is far more perilous now that the homogeneity  of the EU is in question.  He added that the United States is only 1 to 3 years from sever austerity measures which may included Marshall law and a constriction of American citizens freedom and liberties. 

To place a finer point on this our Freinds in the Pacific East... continues to aggressively accumulate
gold. Is this a setup for making the renminbi a gold-backed currency?  To do so, the Chinese understand that they will need to surpass the Federal Reserve’s official, but unaudited, gold holding of 8,133.5 tonnes. China is the sixth largestholder of gold reserves in the world today and officially has reserves of 1054.1 tonnes which is less than half those of even Euro debtor nations France and Italy who are believed to have 2,435.4 and 2,451.8tonnes respectively.


So, the biggest player in the World's economies are betting on a major finical downturn. They are dumping finical stocks, bank stocks and inturn buying GOLD.

Wall Street Journal grudgingly Admits Obama is a Failed President

The Wall Street Journal starkly paints Obama's presidency as not simply failed, but one of gross incompetence.

Wall Street Journal Quotes:

1) Obama's total political inexperience, an unjustified cakewalk to the White House, has positioned him to destroy the Democrat Party's hold on power in Congress because in the end it was never about the Party. It was always about his communist ideology, learned at an early age from family, mentors, college professors, and extreme leftist friends and colleagues.

2) He either blames any problem on the Bush administration or he naively seeks to wish away the truth.

3) Barack Obama exists only as the sock puppet of his handlers, of the people who have maneuvered and manufactured this pathetic individual's life.

4) When anyone else would quickly and easily produce a birth certificate, this man spent over a million dollars to deny access to his. Most other documents, the paper trail we all leave in our wake, have been sequestered from review. He is an artful liar.

5) Sadly, we laugh at the ventriloquist's dummy, but what do you do when the dummy is President of the United States of America?

My Thoughts in addition to the Wall Street Journal:

1) I have said again and again that Obama, Bush, Clinton are not the leaders of the united States of America, they are simply the first lackey in a long line of bought and paid for politicians.   None of these men could have gotten to the White House without the unseen hand both paying and paving the way for them to assume power.

2) Those in power, the hidden men behind the throne loathe the Sovereignty of the United States of America.   It is the freemen of this once great nation which are the last obstacle to the rise of the One World Government.  The FREEDOMS earned and set forth in the Constitution and the BILL of RIGHTS by our Founding Fathers are acid in the mouth of these Globalist Bankers.

3) There are similarities between the ,Bought n Paid For, President Woodrow Wilson who sold the United States into economic slavery with the Federal Reserve act of 1913 and an executive office which circumvents and eliminates civil liberties, NOT by open debate, but by secretly signing executive orders circumventing the democratic process.

 4) The clandestine assault on civil liberties is being done by an executive office which at the swearing in ceremony swore to defend and uphold the constitution of the United States of America. This denial of dialectic exchange is the very undoing of any claims to legitimate truth or claimed intent.

5) The saddest truth in this political farce is that Americans still labor under the fallacy that democracy, even now underpins the three crumbling politically bankrupt branches of American government.  

100 years of the Federal Reserve Bank

Since the Federal Reserve Bank's creation in 1913 the dollar has lost more than 96% of its value!

FACT: The Federal Reserve is a PRIVATE FOREIGN BANK that is designed to maximize profits for the elite international central bankers that own it.

FACT: When the United States Congress asked the Federal Reserve Bank where all the 3 TRILLION US DOLLAR bailout money went, the Federal Reserve Bank told the UNITED STATES Congress that they did not have to answer.

FACT: During the height of the Wallstreet Bailout money was lent to major firms such as Goldman Sachs at rates as low as 0.01 percent, essentially a free loan to the politically well-connected. Non-banks such as General Electric and Verizon Communications got Fed loans.

FACT: Banks partly owned by the Chinese government received billions in loans. We now know that at the peak of the crisis, the Fed even lent billions of dollars to a bank partially owned by the Bank of Libya.

FACT: The Fed lent 90 percent of its discount window of US Dollars to loans for foreign banks. Which meant the American Tax-Payer picked up the 3 Trillion Dollar tab for the whole world.  US Taxpayers, per US household now owe the FED $40,000.00 and counting.  As US Household tightened their belts, lost their houses and jobs, Wall Street and politically connected BANKS-Foreign and Domestic, benefited from their ties to the Fed and the United States Congress, it's President stood by and did nothing.

FACT: When the American public DEMANDED that Congress do something about the out of control FED. The result was a Private, For Profit Bank told the Most Powerful country in the world that it didn't have the power to compel it to transparency. In the face of this outrageous action Obama wants to give the Federal Reserve EVEN MORE regulatory power over virtually every sector of the U.S. economy, and would allow the U.S. government, in conjunction with the Fed, to take over any company they want if they feel that there is "a threat" to the financial system.

George Santayana famously said..."Those who forget  the past are condemned to repeat it." 

Robert D Anding III's addendum to this caveat is..." To their detriment, to our detriment, till madness ensues and darkness reigns..."

This has all happened before, none of this is new except the sheer disconnected madness that has taken hold of the once hallowed halls of American Politic.

Senator Andrew Jackson

FACT: in 1828, after 12 years during which the Second Bank of the United States, ruthlessly manipulated the American economy to the detriment of the people but to the benefit of their own money grabbing ends, the American people had not surprisingly had enough, and opponents of this bank nominated Senator Andrew Jackson of Tennessee to run for President.
To the dismay of the Rothschild Banking Family, Jackson wins the Presidency and makes it quite clear he is going to use his mandate to kill this bank at his first opportunity. He starts out during his first term in office, rooting out the bank’s many minions from government service. To illustrate how deep this cancer was rooted in government, in order to achieve this end he had to fire 2,000 of the 11,000 employees of the Federal Government. On his death bed President Andrew Jackson said "The greatest thing I ever did in my life was keeping the European centralized banks out of the United States. .

The Federal Reserve Bank is a deadly and terminal cancer on the United States of America. 

The Worth and Why of the American Dollar

"The Bretton Woods Agreement"

In July, 1944 representatives of the 44 Allied nations met at the Mount Washington Hotel in Bretton Woods, New Hampshire to create an international economic system designed to govern post-war monetary relations between independent nation-states.

The meeting resulted in the now famous "Bretton Woods Agreement", which created the system of economic rules, institutions and procedures that were designed around the yet-future United Nations system. Bretton Woods established the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the embryonic World Bank.

NOTE: Bretton Woods pegged the US dollar to the price of gold and pegged all other currencies against the value of the US dollar. 

NOTE: Under Bretton Woods, the US dollar was fully convertible to gold on demand and the price of gold remained relatively stable at $35.00 per Troy ounce. 

The chief features of the Bretton Woods system were an obligation for each country to adopt a monetary policy that maintained the exchange rate by tying its currency to the U.S. dollar and the ability of the IMF to bridge temporary imbalances of payments.

NOTE: In August, 1971 the United States unilaterally pulled out of the Bretton Woods Agreement, breaking the link between gold and the US dollar. For the first time in history, formal links between major world currencies and real commodities was severed. 

The action, known as the "Nixon Shock" came in response to America's growing war debt, which resulted in the US experiencing, for the first time in the 20th century, a balance of payments and trade deficit.
By 1971 the Federal Reserve had increased the money supply by 10%, forcing the other Bretton Woods countries into the position of being forced to prop up the US dollar.

To stabilize the economy and combat the 1970 inflation rate of 5.84%,[3] on August 15, 1971, President Nixon imposed a 90-day wage and price freeze, a 10 percent import surcharge, and, most importantly, "closed the gold window", ending convertibility between US dollars and gold.

NOTE: The President and fifteen advisers made that decision without consulting the members of the international monetary system. 

The Nixon Shock immediately caused the US dollar to depreciate. Because oil was priced in dollars, OPEC was suddenly receiving less real income for the same price. The OPEC cartel issued a joint communique stating that, from then on, they would price a barrel of oil against gold.

The Nixon Shock in 1971 was met by the Oil Shock of 1973. During the 1973 Yom Kippur War, President Nixon defied Saudi pressure and authorized Operation Nickel Grass, a strategic airlift of weapons and ammunition to Israel.

On October 16th, OPEC announced it was raising the cartel's price per barrel for oil by 70%. It cut production the next day.


By 1974 the price of oil had quadrupled. The stock market crashed.  De Ja Vue anyone?

The oil shock produced chaos in the US, with long lines, price controls and even gas rationing. But the Saudis began to break with OPEC on key issues, ending OPEC's hegemony over global oil prices. 

The US cut a deal with the House of Saud to support the regime and in exchange, the House of Saud agreed to go along with Bretton Woods 2, which, according to the agreement, the United States would offer military protection for Saudi Arabia’s oil fields. The U.S. also agreed to provide the Saudis with weapons, and perhaps most importantly, guaranteed protection from Israel.

The Saudi royal family knew a good deal when they saw one. They were more than happy to accept American weapons and a U.S. guarantee to restrain attacks from neighboring Israel. 

Naturally, the Saudis wondered how much was all of this U.S. military muscle was going to cost… 

What exactly did the United States want in exchange for their weapons and military protection? 

The Americans laid out their terms. They were simple, and two-fold. 

1) The Saudis must agree to price all of their oil sales in U.S. dollars only. (In other words, the Saudis were to refuse all other currencies, except the U.S. dollar, as payment for their oil exports.)

2) The Saudis would be open to investing their surplus oil proceeds by purchasing U.S. debt securities issued by the Federal Reserve Bank.

Thus we have what is known today as the American Petro-Dollar.  The only reason the US Dollar is worth anything at all is because you can only by a barrel of oil with US Dollars.

When Saddam Hussein tried to accept Euro's for Oil he was Overthrown and hung like a common criminal.  When Muammar Gaddafi tried accepting gold for Libyan oil he was over thrown and murdered in the street like a dog.   Now, ashar Hafez al-Assad the current President of Syria has made the same mistake by intimating that he would be willing to accept something other then US Dollars for Syrian oil.  He too will soon be deposed and murdered.

The entire World's economy runs on oil and US dollars.  Since the US dollar is worthless apart from it's death grip on oil.  If at any time ANY Nation State begins to accept anything other then US dollars for oil and is not stopped then the US dollar will go into free fall.  Apart from OIL there is no exchangeable value for the US Dollar.

These are ONLY  the top 15 countries and their US Dollar reserves. These Units are in the MILLIONS and growing everyday.

Proof That Syria is being overthrown from NATO Forces

Syria Detains Turkish Army General inside Syria  The Syrian Army announced that it has recently apprehended a Turkish general who has been leading foreign Jihadist Fighters inside Syria.  The Turkish General was commanding the foreign terrorists who were in the process of trying to seize control of Aleppo.

Syrian  media stated that the Turkish general was taken into captivity during the Syrian Army's fierce clashes with the foreign terrorists in Aleppo.
Further information states that the Turkish general has been removed to Damascus for further interrogations.
 
Syria has also captured more then 40 Turkish military officers in different parts of the country.

Turkey along with the US, Saudi Arabia and Qatar have been supporting terrorists rebel groups in Syria and have illegally tried to bring down the legitimate Assad's government.

Syria has been experiencing FOREIGN unrest since March 2011 with organized attacks by well-armed NATO rebels.  

Hundreds of people, including members of the security forces, have been killed, when FOREIGN protest rallies turned into armed clashes.

The SYRIAN government has proof that the saboteurs, and armed terrorist groups are backed by NATO forces.  This SYRIAN unrest is being orchestrated from abroad without question.

In October 2011, calm was eventually restored in the Arab state after President Assad started a reform initiative in the country, but Israel, the US and its Arab allies are seeking hard to bring the country into chaos through any possible means. Tel Aviv, Washington and some Arab capitals have been staging various plots in the hope of increasing unrests in Syria.
