When I look at the current state of affairs, I have to wonder why "the powers that be" seem to be in a state of panic. I mean look at them, their efforts to enslave people are becoming blatantly obvious. They are stumbling and bumbling around like a bunch of clowns trying to get as much accomplished as quickly as they can. So, what has them scared?
Is it because they know that a large percentage of people are beginning to wake up? Is there some cosmic event occurring that has "the powers that be" stirred? I for one, especially over the last six or seven years, have noticed that our "leaders" seem to be in a rush to pass as many draconian laws as possible. It's almost as if they know they have already lost but are trying to do as much damage as possible in the time that that has been allocated to them.
As we approach 2013, we have to ask ourselves what exactly is going on and what does it all mean in the grand scheme of things. Are we truly about to enter a new era where the people, i.e "peasants," take control of that which is theirs to control to begin with? We'll see.

Government here in Greece is totally losing it... Also I believe America will have to engage in war in order to stand on her feet again.
After all we are witnessing America's dying breath so they don't really have anything to lose by engaging in war. Iran will gain power and Greece will get rid of their politics.Turkey will try to taunt greeks again by sending in F-16s
Syria will be totaled.Germany will lose power due to old debts from WWII
That is what i think is gonna happen in 2013

Again, I don't understand this... Can you explain this a little better? Americas dying breath? Nothing to lose?

Ps America, like any other country engaging in a war has alot to lose

As the weeks go by, I keep observing the world around me. I watch how people react to certain drama’s that pop up in their life, or news events, or celebrity gossip. I watch how people become so obsessed with things that do them more harm than good. I watch how people believe that their situation cannot be changed, that they believe they are powerless and this is the only way it can be. If I try to tell them that they can change their reality at any time, they think I’m full of it and don’t believe it. But the one thing that I notice the most, is how people are simply unaware of how the world really works, which proves to me, that knowledge really is power. If the masses understood how the system really worked, it would collapse in an instant.

Somewhere along the way, human beings were side tracked into believing that they are better than everything else on the planet. Instead of living with nature and allow it to provide for us, we started to manipulate nature under our control. We started farming, and mass producing food, then we started building cities using vast amounts of resources, then we started connecting all those cities by roads and trains, boats and planes. As this went on, our need for resources grew greater and greater, and so did our greed. As the population grew at a faster rate each year, we needed to manipulate nature more and more, become less attached with it each time. We went from living with nature, to completely ignoring it. As humans evolved this way, it took over the entire planet, and now instead of living with nature in the many different ways it provides, we all live in the same way. Right from birth we expect our children to live in a manner that the society we have built accepts to be the only way to live. The need for more resources gave rise to major corporations, which are slowly, but not so obviously, dominating the planet. Take a picture of the earth, and slap a walmart logo on it. However, it’s not just the big corporations that have taken over our way of life. It has also been taken over by the education system, the medical system, the banking system, and the government.

Let’s take a look at education. Right from when children are young we send them to school, which causes them stress. Stress is not something a child should ever have, there is no need for it. The only reason this stress occurs, is because we are forced to learn things that we don’t wish to learn. Some children like to learn anything, and they are the ones that get the A grades and have no problems. Others only want to learn certain things and have no interest in others. But for some reason the education system says, you have to learn these things as requirements….Requirements for what exactly? As the grades progress, the work load gets harder, and the students that have no interest in certain classes begin skipping class, and start doing things that they shouldn’t be doing. It allows children to develop certain attitude problems that could be avoided if someone would just listen to what they wanted. Instead, we put more stress on them, to get the work done, or they’re grounded, or something will be taken away…. and so on. Which only leads to more problems. But parents that believe in the education system, don’t see the solution, they blame their kid, or sometimes the teacher, and expect things to change. In the beginning of school years, children have a vision, or a dream of what it is they want to do in life, and as each year gets harder, often that dream disappears because they have to keep learning things they don’t want to learn, which puts them off learning things they want to learn because of the attitudes they have developed, and the extra stress put on them. The point I am trying to make, is that the education system we currently believe in, is detrimental to most of our childrens future’s.

The solution is rather simple, and recently I was having dinner with a friend who mentioned a school that has taken on this solution, and I was very intrigued. I wasn’t aware there was a school doing it, so I was happy to hear about it. The solution is to allow children to learn what they want, when they want. If we were allowed to learn anything we wanted, and someone was there to teach it for us, imagine how far we could go with that. When we could focus on our interests, and passions, imagine how much inspiration that would achieve in our children. Their potential would sky rocket, and they would be able to follow their dreams right into their future without any roadblocks and no stress of having to learn things you have no interest in learning. If something comes up in the way of following their dreams, they will learn how to overcome that, because they have a will to learn. Where there is a will, there is a way. Take that will away by adding stress, and suddenly something fun, creative, and easy becomes boring, dull and hard. Our education system is so bad, that in some states there is a lottery

So...is this a post and run thread or what???

No one seems even remotely interested in talking about this subject.
