Whether at the local, county, state, national, or international level, the public sector–acting on behalf of the corporate interests that own it–is engaged in the wholesale looting, surveillance, and abuse of private citizens. Much of this activity is being outsourced to private and even foreign corporate interests, demonstrating that tyranny is nothing if not profitable.
The purpose of this blog is to chronicle this process and to help people see how the pieces fit together in a larger picture. This blog is not about left versus right, democrat versus republican. It’s about the people being systematically robbed and abused by those who presume to rule them.
The only weapon we advocate using against these oppressive forces is the mighty pen. The most effective form of resistance is to make other people aware.
If you find the information presented here useful, please share it with your friends. The best resistance is awareness, and you can help by spreading that awareness.

Great blog!
Heh, such a negative blog. But it seems honest and well-worded. I tend to take issue with those who claim to be our servants, even though I should love them. And I try. But they do act a fool and ruin all our fun. *follows*
Admitted: The takeover of sovereign nations by corporate and financial interests that loot and abuse the people is rather negative.
Why on earth would anyone attempt to love their overlords, unless they’re suffering from Stockholm Syndrome?
“‘Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?’ Jesus replied: ‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.'” -Matthew
“Love is the law, love under will.” – Aleister Crowley
We must operate on love always, never fear. And we must love those who operate on fear- that is the only way to transmute positively.
But there’s no harm in your being honest. We must also face the truth.
Good blog. Obviously I’m partial to the overlords on the left, but I think you’re on the right track.
Have you ever read The Best Democracy Money Can Buy by Greg Palast? Good read and talks about the globalization by corporate interests that you address here. I’ve got a link to Greg’s web page on my site. He is an awesome investigative journalist.
Thanks for the recommendation.
We try to get beyond the left/right paradigm here. We’re trying to help people on both ends of the traditional political spectrum see that we’re all being robbed and abused by governments at all levels and by the corporations that own them. On this the old Left and Right can stand together.
Although it looks like you’ve been at this for a few months, I just found you today. I’ll be doing further exploring here for sure, but I wanted to commend you on what (at least at first glance) looks like a commitment to facilitating access to information and to asking (or at least implying) important questions and shrugging off conventional limitations on perspective like modern left-right divisions in doing so. Your tone is not the one I would choose, but I suppose that’s why we all do our own writing, right? Beyond that, I imagine one becomes jaded rather quickly upon shouldering the mantle of independent government watchdog.
Jefferson gets under my skin at times, but it’s hard not to quote him periodically: “Let the eye of vigilance never be closed” (letter to Spencer Roane 1821). Indeed.
I look forward to reading more of your work.
As an addendum, I want to add that I like where KoraKaos’ head is at.
The biggest problem that we face is failure to recognize the true problem. We have cast off restraint in this nation and can no longer live under the blessing of the light yoke of Jesus Christ. When he told us to take up his yoke, for it is light, that was an offer to replace the heavy yoke of slavery and oppression that is inevitable when we live in rebellion against the Lord. We are now seeing that heavy yoke and it is going to get a lot heavier because this nation is not going to repent of our wickedness and live under God’s laws of the Holy Bible.
Keep up the great work and thanks for the link! Activist Post
Thanks for this blog. I’ve found it insightful… of course, I’m a believer in the Sovereign Citizen movement so I, unfortunately, am not another convert to the cause. But, rest assured… I will recommend your blog. Keep up the great works you’re doing for our country. God Bless.
Thanks for the comment. Onward and upward!
This is a good blog. Good to see a website that stands up to government and corporate power without falling into the brain dead tea party crap.
We espouse the ideology of no political party. We speak out against abuses committed against the people by governments owned by corporate and financial interests.
I enjoy challenging anyone who like big government with one question, “Can you name one Right that is granted by the Bill of Rights?”. The answer is none, the Bill of Rights don’t grants Rights the forbid the government taking your Rights away. You already have rights and they do not have to be granted them but you have make sure that nobody makes laws taken them away.
Good point well stated. We have “unalienable” rights; the purpose of our Bill of Rights is to protect us from our government. Our Congress has lost sight of this principle.
I think that some us has lost that idea of “unalienable” rights is not granted by the government. And if we need to win this philosophical battle we must teach the poorest and least free people in our country what it means to have Rights, to respect our rights and be responsible about our Rights. We can not thumb up our backside hoping that the least privilege will understand these principles. We need to create a country of Great Individuals that understand with Rights comes Freedom. We have people know that are taught that the Great State will provide to them if they give up their Rights. I can not live in a country which some people don’t have their individual rights protected because if they are not free then I am not free. We need to protect the utlimate Right that God granted to all mankind and that is the Right to choose. Even if we don’t believe in how people may choose, we need to accept each others choice like God accept ours after Adam bit into the Apple (sorry to throw religion in but it makes a good point).
consider these ideas? http://questionspresented.wordpress.com/2010/02/23/dont-cross-the-streams-a-history-of-constitutional-rights/
Cheers for the link to my site!
Keep up the good work
Thanks for this blog … here’s another example of government repression of common people who dare to speak out:
Lakewood Ohio mayor-select Mike Summers’ coronation as mayor in November was not without a hitch. According to media reports, a Ward 3 resident present who at some point made a supposedly “threatening” remark to Summers.
The police media log noted the following:
“Summers is [a] Lakewood councilman. He said [a male] is unhappy with the complaint process and has called Summers several times angry and his anger is escalating. [The male] came to the city council meeting and told Summers he should have kept his mouth shut, and that he would pay.”
A later entry indicated that the male was arrested for aggravated menacing.
How dare a slave use the wrong tone of voice when addressing an overlord!
Thanks for passing that along.
“The only weapon we advocate using against these oppressive forces is the mighty pen.” I like that!
