Chicago School

The Chicago School crowd that engineered Milton Friedman’s policy of using crises to accomplish political objectives is in total control of the Obama Administration. Nearly everyone in the White House and other bureaucracies controlled by the President is influenced by the Chicago School. This includes many in the wildly corrupt Daley machine that pushed Obama into office. The Chicago School in Washington is using the same crisis tactics on Americans they have used on countless countries around the world for many years, according to The Shock Doctrine, a well-researched book detailing the origin and uses of crisis for political gain. The author says Milton Friedman, chief economist at the Chicago School, developed the idea that major economic change can only take place alongside some drastic occurrence when it is easier to get the public to accept policies they would never agree to in the absence of severe trauma. Because of the necessity of acting quickly, Friedman suggested within six to nine months, there need to be alternative plans already in place so they can be implemented immediately. He further suggests a prime activity of economic planners is to develop and keep alive ideas to use when politically unthinkable actions become reasonable behind a disaster. The actions must be quick and irreversible, so that once in place, they can’t be changed, before the populace gets over the shock they have received and begins to revert to their old ways.

 Is this not happening right now in Washington? Since President Obama took office, the major crises I can think of resulted in bailouts of gigantic corporations in the finance and automotive industries. Supposedly, much of the money given to these companies has been repaid; I am not certain this is true, but even if it is the money is not being used to retire the national debt. It has simply created a huge slush fund for the Administration to use as it pleases with little oversight or transparency. I think these bailouts, though distasteful, probably were necessary to bolster the failing economy. However, the Chicago School then used the specter of health care catastrophe, aided by several health insurance companies announcing outrageous rate increases, to cram European style Socialized Health Care down our throats. Over the next weeks I will show how they have plans backed up to further take over and control our lives in the way of a Communist nation like the former Soviet Union.

 The next crisis to come along was engineered as a way to take over the finance industry centered on Wall Street. Voters hate Wall Street, so this will be an easier sell than most Obama takeover  ideas. The crisis conjured to cram down this takeover is the belated SEC civil fraud suit against Goldman Sachs. I don’t intend to defend Goldman; it appears they may have done nothing illegal, but if they were betting against their own products, as alleged, they should have told their investors in fairness. What is important here is the timing of the SEC suit, at the same time the Obama crowd is selling the idea that Wall Street is a deeply rotten crowd, trying to screw the little guys out of their hard-earned wealth. So here comes the good old Obama government  to protect everyone with legislation that will severely regulate the financial industry and complete their planned government takeover. There is no coincidence to the timing of the SEC action. The New York Post and others have also remarked the SEC action was not a coincidence?it was perfectly timed to accomplish a takeover of Wall Street, the ultimate result of which could be a government-run economy in the Communist tradition.

 Before going further, some of you will say I have copied Rush Limbaugh with this idea. I have not; I began thinking this way when the Goldman story broke. Further, I never listen to Rush and agree with few of his ideas; I only found out about what he said while researching Google for this blog. What I’m saying here is solely my own opinion; I’m flattered I’m not the only person who believes as I do.

 The Goldman crisis does not end with the SEC; now the Justice Department is threatening a criminal indictment of the company. If you follow these things you will note the ultimate demise of very large companies after criminal convictions. The trail of company demise includes E F Hutton in 1985, Drexel Burnham Lambert in 1988, and Arthur Anderson LLP in 2002. It is inconceivable to me that the Democrats will allow one of their largest cash cows, Goldman Sachs, to be convicted and, perhaps, go out of business. In fact, the state-run media, through The Washington Post and others, are already saying how difficult a criminal prosecution might be citing the Bear Stearns case the government lost; this is laying the ground work for what is going to happen in the next few months.

 The Chicago School in the Administration has already planned how to use Goldman Sachs to accomplish another objective in addition to taking over the financial industry. The Democrats are facing the possibility of massive Congressional losses in November, so they have a plan to bolster their position. They know voters despise Wall Street, so they plan to keep the idea of bad-to-the-core financial firms in front of everyone, right up until the election. At predetermined intervals the Justice Department will issue press releases about a possible criminal indictment of Goldman, right up to election day. Then the criminal indictment will simply go away, lost in after election turmoil. The Democrats hope their appearing to protect all the little guys will keep them from losing some Congressional seats.

 There you have it. Goldman Sachs, probably a willing participant in the scheme, is being used to cram financial takeover down our throats, while, at the same time, it is being used to win political advantage in the upcoming November election. It’s the Chicago School way.

 My goal in writing about the use of crisis is to get a few readers interested enough to demand a stop to these cram down tactics. Take note of what is happening and act upon it. You won’t get another chance. Once a cram becomes law it becomes almost impossible to undo it, so start calling your Senators and Representatives right now about everything. This is the positive way to counter a very negative situation.

The author represents what some would call an unconventional approach to cancer treatment, especially the aspects of major pain so often associated with this disease. I have had personal contact with him, as he treats one of the four most significant members of my family. A few days ago we remarked about how comforting it is to have a session with him; no matter what happens, we always leave with positive feelings. Now I know why this is.

 My research into his background led me to an article in the December, 2006, issue of The New Physician. It was “EYE CONTACT: Disengaged doctors and the death of hope,” by John Inzerillo, M.D. It is about a frightening experience the author and his family suffered while searching for treatment of a serious medical condition affecting one of their children. At the end of the article he had this to say, in part:

 Referring to one of the doctors treating his son, “His attitude is one reason I decided, well before my son’s illness, to move from my busy oncology practice to one where the pace is more human; where I can look my patients in the eye and shake their hands before I sit down to listen. It is a place where I have time to review the chart before I walk into the exam room, giving me the freedom to look at the patient and others with whom I am sharing space and experiences. I can get a better feel for where my patients and their family members are coming from, and where their minds may be taking them. Then I can do my best to reassure them.

It seems strange when patients tell you, just after you’ve broken the news about their stage IV lung cancer and what that means, that they feel better after talking to you. I believe it’s because they’ve found a way to walk away with at least a little hope.” And this is exactly how he is; his patients always feel encouraged, regardless of their condition.

The author proposes many unique ways to reduce the pain and stress associated with various forms of cancer. Writing is one way anyone can approach pain management. Even extreme pain has been shown to be helped by writing about it. Patients who wrote experienced much better sleep habits and better function when awake.

Our breath is a useful tool for pain control. Breathing in may emphasize pain, but it also increases blood flow carrying oxygen which helps overcome pain. While inhaling tell yourself you are receiving from the universe what you need for total healing. On the exhale, imagine you are releasing all your problems back into the universe to be destroyed.

Pain management is, in some sense, similar to other demanding problems of our daily lives. We all force our bodies to do things we really don’t want to do, none of which are healthy for us when done over long periods of time. Making ourselves get up and go to jobs we hate, often requiring huge amounts of energy, sets our minds up to accept a pain-racked body. We all have places in our physical constitution where we store tensions all day long. These are sick places of pain that will only heal when we take measures to discharge these tensions from our bodies.

The book describes a little-known technique of balancing one’s Chakras so as to bring life into balance. Chakra is Sanskrit for wheel; our “wheels” are near certain ganglia in our central nervous system. You will see how to accomplish this in the book.

Another way to gain control of pain is to go to some quiet place and get rid of all the noise in your mind. This allows focusing on getting rid of fatigue, even after intensely hard work. You can now try to reduce the effort in anything. Try to  develop a relaxed and easy attitude about everything, including pain, and often you will generate an unimpeded flow of energy that feels good. At this point recheck your body to find some place that is entirely pain free. It may be very small, such as a little toe or a finger nail. Determine how big an area is pain free, then imagine expanding it to cover areas with pain—make it big enough to cover the entire area.

Some form of meditation is required to accomplish many things described here. Use it to choose keeping things the way they are and just accept what you have, or you can decide to try and change the situation. This requires venturing into unknown areas which often generate fear of not knowing whether we succeed or fail. Fear of failure is a big obstacle to our ability to heal. Pain generates chronic fatigue; since there is tremendous energy stored in pain, if it can be redirected from dread and agony to hope and excitement a whole new world opens with new dreams. To help with your meditation use the Internet to find many different ways to do this. Choose one and try it—if it works, fine. If it does not work, try another. Many experienced counselors say, “Start where you are. Things will unfold as you sow these seeds of emotional release.”

These methods help to rearrange the concept of pain so it isn’t perceived as the enemy, but as a point of possibility and transformation, not necessarily to become pain-free, but rather restoring a sense of balance that allows coping with pain. Do not blame anything beyond your control for your pain. This just says you have to accept things as they are and there’s no way to ever change anything. You do need to accept things as they are right at this moment; this allows you to escape emotional involvement in your pain. You can now make the conscious decision to just allow what is happening to happen and not burn up all the energy trying to change present reality.

A very effective way to help yourself is to go into your community and help other people. Seldom is there a situation where there aren’t people much worse off than you. Helping these people takes you away from dwelling on your own problems. You will still have pain, but you will realize you did not cause your pain and you will get a great amount of satisfaction from helping others work through their own situations.

This book discusses many other methods of Yoga, Meditation, exercise, and more. Many of the  ideas discussed can be applied to other situations like career problems or business and financial situations. This is a read well worth your time.
