Think Tanks …  some of their roles in our lives.

Think Tank is the name given to an international Bank owned/run Institute (or other org.) that  engages in activity to further the agenda and interests of international Bankers, Multi & Trans  National companies. They have unlimited funding and are well entrenched, worldwide.  Some leading names are Tavistock, Sydney Institute, HR Nichols Society, etc. They adversely affect our lives on many fronts; from  programming the teaching of Political Correctness (“Rights” of the child, sex education etc.) into our learning institutions, to introducing policies & legislation for our Governments to emplace.

They network an army of writers & intellectuals in the community to  constantly follow up various planned populous “issues” to draw, distract and captivate the public attention away  from unsavoury real issues, policies and agenda on which Banksters (banks/gangsters) are active. These quisling  operatives can be high profile TV and journalist presenters, but large numbers are drawn from the community at large. Whether high level operatives working at  preprogrammed misinformation propaganda, psyop agiprops, “tar blacking” of key individuals or groups that are problematic to    governments or just writing misinformation to further sales for some multinational, they all, by and large, are NOT working for your best interests.  They are criminal in effect and in most cases, intent.

All this is known in the more esoteric public circles and certainly to ALL politicians. All of the above, of course, is headed up by the P.I.G. (Permanent Invisible Government), shadowy power   brokers who run Think Tanks and your life.

And because our political “System” is so deeply entrenched, any hint of opposition to the evil, is carefully managed by a compliant media and friendly “government” departments. Australia Post at the last, and previous elections, refused to distribute fliers for some Independents. At the previous elections, one man on a senate ticket in N.S.W. paid them $25,000 to post fliers. They failed to do so, and the last I heard was that they even refused to refund.

On more subtle, but fundamental ways Think Tanks create campaigns with media compliance,   moulding population ideals and thinking and furthering agenda and matters already in place  – or    preparing (conditioning) people to accept another level of chicanery.

Double standards are an integral part of this, eg. while one TV channel is telling us about our “rights” in “graded” levels of violence and inviting “reporting” of public concerns, other channels are showing blatant porn. The confusion is intentional and part of the acceptance of societal degradation. The general objective is to destroy all levels of moral standards and religion and accept uninhibited decadent behaviour as the norm.

Nothing really new here. All been done before, except not many noticed. But it IS new to a couple of generations of malleable youth, preoccupied with team & sport mentality, high fives and heaps of Americanism. So this is my little bit for my country and kids everywhere……….   More later.

Letter to the Editor

Open letter to the residents and Councillors of Break O’Day Region

It was with great interest on returning home recently from overseas that I read the letter from our Mayor Sarah Schmerl to various politicians openly advocating for a better deal for the Break O’Day area. At last I thought someone is prepared to openly advocate for our  municipality. Continue reading

The Say

The other night I sent some photos of the region to a friend of mine in Baltimore, Maryland. He and his wife were keen to see some Fingal Valley stuff, not the usual tourism content. After sending them some of my own photographs via email which they appreciated I decided to have a look and see if there was much video to view… and I found it. It’s called Valleys of Adventure (Fingal Valley, Tasmania ) and he loved it. So did I actually.

Thank goodness the seven month political campaign is finally over. What a saga. Now  we can watch the Labor recriminations and the Coalition gloats and smirks with apparently a ‘mandate’ to stop the boats, scrap the carbon and mining taxes, change the NBN rollout,    confront the public sector to help get that budget surplus including job cutbacks, and who knows where the GST, education and health are going.

Foxes were introduced into Australia in the early 1800’s for use in hunting by the landed gentry. Just as in old   England, the master of the hunt would arrange for a collection of property owners and their mounts, and with a pack of blood hounds, would hunt, harass and tear to pieces a defenseless small animal. A good time was had by all. As Tasmania had its fair share of landed gentry in those days, it’s more than reasonable to assume that foxes were introduced here as well as on the mainland.

There isn’t that much mystery about the presence of foxes; if they are about, they can be detected by their smell (a significant musk) or more likely by their bark, which sounds a bit like a small dog with a cough.  So if there is no fox smell or barking in your area, then you can be   certain that there are also NO foxes. The fox’s bark is  easily identified in the background of scenes from typical English TV presentations (Midsommer Murders, Miss Marple and many others). Through saturation over the years of wildlife TV documentaries, magazines, etc. most people in this country would surely know what a fox looks like, just as mainlanders know exactly what a Tasmanian Devil looks like.

Contrary to what might be believed about habitat, foxes are no different to many other animals in the wild. They simply prefer, because of the natural self preservation  instinct, to keep away from man but when they hunt at night, will prowl around man’s habitat, particularly around other dog’s feeding dishes etc. or anywhere they can smell chooks. And like the Quoll, (and maybe the Tasmanian Devil) once in a chook pen, they will eat their fill and kill the rest. I’m reminded of a kid’s picture/story book we had at home when I about 7-9yrs, and a poem about the Tasmanian Devil –  I must have been fascinated by this animal to remember it all these years.

They dub me a Devil. I am.

I’m partial to poultry and lamb.

When I’ve eaten my fill I just go and kill,

‘til the owner appears, then I scram.

(The Devil is well known as a carrion eater, so I’m not too sure if the poet was entirely correct).

When the vixen is going to have kids they settle into a  hollow log, an unused wombat hole, rabbit’s warren, cave, or   underneath an old unused remote shed – wherever, in her wisdom, she’ll be dry, cosy and undisturbed. There is no special habitat.

Around 15 years ago I noticed a sign that was obviously officially emplaced on the Esk Valley Road just in from the Midlands Highway turnoff at Conara, asking people to report foxes. This didn’t surprise me as much as it normally would, because, apart from my own       observations, I had heard that there was a concerted effort from? – to draw people’s attention to a misnomer – foxes in Tasmania. Making inquiries at that time I was told that there was a conspiracy at foot to legalise or extend the use of the controversial (for good reason) poison – 1080.  So I had then made a point of calling farmers in different parts of the State to ask the question – “Have you ever seen a fox on your property?” Everyone had answered in the negative and many added statements to the effect that they had lived on their property all their life! (or similar).

The base reason why there are no breeding foxes in Tasmania is because the Devil will take their young as fast as they are produced. It’s not rocket science to understand that that is what happened when they were first  introduced!.

Look out! ..politicians are on the rise… ‘tis the season to be Pollie … tra la la la la.. la la la laaa!.  Do we care? I mean, there really hasn’t been any kind of political track record to engender “care” in any of us for the past forty years. Why is that, we sometimes wonder? We all know the extraordinary promises at pre-election time, only to see policies and promises revised, reversed or deleted after, or even before, the election. Why is it that politicians seem so increasingly blatant at lies and deceit. Has political  morality declined along with that of society? I’m sure it has. Societal degradation is due to the lack of meaningful leadership, and although the cause is connected, political morality is due to another reason entirely. The bible text “Mammon is the root of all evil” well encapsulates the problem. Christ wasn’t talking about money per se, he meant the love of money and materialism. The wanting of more when you already have a lot.  (We won’t even talk about the love of Control). And here is the nub of our political, and consequently, our societal decline. We, as individuals, are in there somewhere, too.

Local and state government politicians, business and corporate members are often involved in complicity but most people have no understanding as to the depth of evil at the Federal level.  International Banksters (banking gangsters) and the big movers and shakers in the business world virtually run our Federal government, holding sway on not only the heavier items of legislation and direction, but on micro matters that affect our daily lives. The Banksters operate through their “Think Tanks” (named) that have unlimited funding, are well entrenched throughout the world and pass directives onto our Federal parliamentary executive. I’ve heard them referred to as the P.I.G. (Permanent Invisible  Government) and these shadowy people control our lives beyond our imagination. Politicians are there now to do their bidding – and mostly to our detriment.

From mainly the Keating days, politicians have signed away our country’s future in thousands of international trade agreements without our permission and, in some cases, our knowledge. Globalism and Free Trade have changed our country’s political and social landscape as it has done all over the world. We’ve lost most of our rural and manufacturing capability as a result. The resultant shocking unemployment situation has been bandaged over to some extent with fill-in useless jobs conjured up by the Think Tanks and emplaced by parliamentary minions. Thousands of small family-owned businesses and rural holdings have gone. Real capability to continue apprenticeships in every field of endeavour has   disappeared.

For many years now, the problem for current politicians and new cadre coming in, is conform, or go! And they all, generally, stay and do what they are told in well-paid careers. So instead of genuine representation for the people, we get puppets controlled by Big Money puppeteers. And the parliaments and elections become Punch and Judy shows for the people. They are meaningless, because the reality is from decisions made from the minders behind the scenes. The depth of machinations by the Think Tanks is frightening. From monopolised media, to emplacing socialist professors into our universities to assist in the smooth running of public brainwashing, to the manipulation of education curriculum from the kindergarten up, they mould, control and direct public thinking to suit their own agenda. There is much more on the subject.

The foregoing is but a rough, and very limited summary of why all parties, and Independents, are coloured the same.  Nobody is game to table demands to put things back in place that were hard won over the years by real politicians (some puppets were around then but the control was not like it is now!) Off you go now and vote, because it’s the law!  “Democratically” enacted, of course!

The Say

By Cagerattler

We’ve been watching the ads on television of late dealing with Australian-made articles and I’m ashamed to admit that I’ve only given them scant thought.  Just this past week though I put it into more perspective. As an avid model rail enthusiast I enjoy being on a forum site. One of the topics deals with wait times on supply from an iconic American manufacturer, or so I thought.  Due to re-location and re-tooling offshore, this company will not be providing  orders to dealers/customers for a few months. This supply issue made me consider the big picture, particularly in an Australian context. If the USA, home of free enterprise, is sending so much stuff offshore, then God help us.

In the next decade our once quite well-supported car industry will be gone, never to return.  Ford Australia have already announced that the  local car building industry will be finishing in 2016, and you can bet your boots that GMH won’t be too far   behind. This then flows on to components companies in the main, unless they can find markets elsewhere. Electrical/white goods manufacturers have either been bought out by overseas big players or ceased trading     altogether, as have clothing and food companies unable to compete with ridiculously cheap imports. Don’t let’s even  start on the out-sourcing of call centres, newspaper  sub-editing etc…

Why can’t our stupid politicians see this? Stop putting   political correctness first and start making decisions such as giving the Free Trade Agreement the flick or at least putting some substantial reforms in place within it. GEE…it’s done our manufacturing industry the world of good so far.  Just wait while I get my tongue out of my cheek as I say that… So often, it seems, we are buying items made cheaply by low paid workers employed in  bad conditions. We ignore the   corruption – out of sight out of mind, just so we can save a few dollars on these goods.  Don’t be fooled, some of these “iconic” companies are using sweatshop labour to boost profits.

I think most of us would be happy to pay the few extra  dollars if we knew that it was genuinely supporting local manufacturing, and ethical enough to spend a little more if  the sweatshop workers were better paid. I’m no genius (far from it) but at least lesser disparity between overseas to locally manufactured goods would present a  choice of quality rather than just cost,  and up the overall picture in a competitive sense.

Come on Rudd and Abbott, do something really useful and make some changes to help our manufacturing industry in a real way before it’s all too late.
