THE MAN WHO DID NOT DIE

This is the story of Enoch, the man with a special relationship with God Almighty, unique in all of history.  Enoch was taken up to Heaven twice.  The first time he was taken, he toured the heavenlies with one of the four archangels who explained to Enoch the places and functions of the heavenly realms.  After Enoch finished his tour, he met with God who he referred as “The God of Spirits”, and God instructed him to go back to earth, describe what he had seen to his sons and then write it down.  Since there was no means to “write” anything down, the angels taught Enoch how to make ink, scrolls out of skins and taught him the angelic language.

It is not stated that Heaven is a deminsional place, but the very fact that God had to “open Enoch’s eyes” reveals that Enoch could not see Heaven, the angels,  or any of the heavenly realms, with his natural  eyesight.  Enoch also described his body and his clothes being “changed” so he could stand before God.

Enoch’s story begins with The Watchers.  The Watchers are the special group of angels, 200 in all, who left the Heavenly Places and came down to earth because they were dazzled by the daughters of men and wanted wives for themselves.  From the union of angels and earth women, came those known in the Bible as Nephilim.  The Nephilim were those great men of reknown of whom many stories were told, but there were also Nephilim who were monsters, giants who consumed all that mankind could produce, and when they could produce no more, would eat humans instead.

The Archangels Michael, Uriel, Raphael and Gabriel looked down from Heaven and saw all of the carnage and lawlessness upon the earth and were horrified.  They went The God of Spirits and told Him what had been done on the earth, so The God of Spirits reasoned that the Watchers had no need of mortal wives because they were created immortal with access to the Heavenly places.  But because the Watchers had committed outrageous sin, corrupting themselves with the mortals, they had to be punished.  God instructed the archangels to bind the Watchers under the earth until judgement day.  Because the children of the Watchers were half human and half angel, their flesh could die, but their spirits were immortal. Therefore, when the Nephilim died, they were constrained to walk the earth and became known as demons.

It is obvious from Enoch’s account, that the Lucifer had nothing to do with the Watchers and was a different encounter with God with a totally different judgement.  Lucifer and his “satans” (meaning adversaries) have full access to the Heavenlies as well as the Earth and was granted the role of accuser of mankind.  Lucifer’s sin was pride and  thought himself equal to God.

Nevertheless, the Watcher’s work was continued after the Flood of Noah.  Genesis 6 says that the Nephilim were upon the earth “even after” the great flood.  There were whole races of Giants.  Goliath was a Philistine, the City of Jherico was a city of giants and many more surrounded the promised land after the Hebrews left Egypt for the Promised Land of Caanan.

Despite Enoch’s remarkable history, the Canon that decided which books would be in the Bible, left Enoch’s story out.  Some even called it “heresy” even though Enoch’s account of his encounter with God is mentioned  throughout the Old and New Testament and is completely consistent with Genesis 1-6, fleshing out the biblical account.  The Book of Enoch was lost for hundreds of years, but in 1773 James Bruce discovered  and brought to England two contemporary manuscript copies of the Ethiopian Book of Enoch. Then in 1821, Richard Laurence, Archbishop of Cashel translated the work.

After Enoch left the heavenlies, he wrote down what he saw, instructed his sons, and then in the 365th year of his birth, God took him.  Enoch never returned to the Earth and is the only human that did not have to die.

THE ALPHA - Part I

Genesis.  The seed-plot of the Bible! Understanding the first few chapters of Genesis is the key to understanding the Bible, the Jewish people and perhaps the overall outlook of man. Readers will see creation and re-creation in the very first chapter.

The first creation of earth was made for the beautiful angel, Lucifer.  He was the right hand of God and also His favorite.  The Earth was made perfect for Lucifer.  Too bad he trashed out Earth when he was given his own domain.  He became very haughty and proud, considering himself equal to God.  He no longer needed God since he was God’s equal.  Very sad and disappointed, God destroyed his creation of Earth with a great and mighty flood.  Lucifer got really wet.

When God re-created Earth, He did something revolutionary.  He created man and woman in His own image and gave them Eden.  Adam and Eve were innocents, but very smart, so God allowed Adam to name all the animals and gave them dominion over them.

Lucifer really didn’t like the idea of God making Adam and Eve and giving them HIS Earth.  But he was very crafty.  Knowing that humans were very, very innocent, he approached Eve, asking why she did not eat the fruit of the tree of Knowledge.  She told Lucifer that God had told her and Adam not to eat of it, lest they would die.  “Oh, no”, said Lucifer.  You will not die.  You will be as smart as God.”   “Oh” , said Eve.  So she plucked the fruit from the tree, took a bite and then took the rest to Adam, who also ate the fruit.  Then, both Adam and Eve realized they were naked and hid from God.  When God found them, they both were trying to hide their nakedness, and God knew they had disobeyed Him.

There are a few considerations that need to be made here. (1) There were 2 great floods, not just one.  The first one destroyed all life completely.  (2) Lucifer and all the rest of the angels do not look like God and therefore do not look like us.  (3) Adam and Eve were victims of  Lucifer, but they were not excused from disobedience, so the Earth remains Lucifer’s domain. He is still trying to rid himself of mankind because he realizes the promise God made to humans.

Where am I going with all of this?  Scroll down to see Part II.

THE ALPHA, Part 2

Chapter 6 of Genesis reveals the fact that there were a group of angels who desired the daughters of men and married with them, producing offspring called “The Nephilim”.  The Bible also tells us that these were strange creatures, men of renown, men of whom many stories were told as in Green Mythology.  They were both respected and feared by pure human stock.

God had already warned mankind to marry and produce children each after his own kind. He very much hated the idea of half-human, half-angel offspring, regarding them as the progeny of sodomy.  It greived God that He had created man, so he planned for another flood to get rid of these terrible half breeds.  However, He made an exception for Noah and Noah’s family, because they were pure human, untainted by halfling blood.  God told Noah to build a boat that would carry two of all species to once again begin operation of Earth when the flood was over.

Meanwhile, Lucifer changed his name to Satan (meaning adversary), openly declaring war on God.  He had a third of the heavenly angels with him and also had access to the heavens, so when the flood came Lucifer avoided the flood, not even getting wet.  While he waited for the flood to clear, he formulated another plan to further his aim to defeat God and the humans once and for all.  This time he instructed his demons to go to the daughters of men once again and produce more Nephilim.  He thought if he could taint the bloodline once again, that God would finally destroy all mankind.

God had his own plan.  He adopted the Hebrew tribe, keeping them safe from the Nephilim.  From this tribe of Abraham and David,  would come the bloodline of Jesus, the Son of God, who would save mankind by paying the price for Adam’s original sin and the sin of all mankind.

It was during this time that Satan and his army were very busy producing tribe after tribe of Nephilim who also intermarried with human women whose progeny would be halflings, fourthlings, but whose blood was contaminated.  These tribes were giants and great warriors. In The Exodus, Joshua sent out scouts to Jericho.  When the scouts returned they told Joshua that the people there were giants and they were mere grasshoppers next to them.  It was then that God told Joshua to make war on Cannan and kill every man, woman and child.

Note: God seems very interested in ridding the promised land of Moses of all Nephilim probably to protect the Hebrew from any connections with the Giant Tribes to avoid blood contamination in the future.  There were still many, many of the Giant Tribes that were scattered over the Mideast and there would be future generations of Hebrews who would marry into these tribes.

THE ALPHA, Part 3

Leaping forward thousands of years, God’s Great Plan unfolded slowly.  He continued to purify the Hebrews, who became known as “The Jews”, providing them with law to follow,  prophecies and the promise of a Messiah.  Then some 2000 years ago, Jesus was born in a lowly manger to the virgin, Mary of the house of David, the chosen messianic line.  We know very little of Jesus’ life until he was 30 years old.  At that time, he was instructed by God to go forth and preach the Kingdom of God to all who would hear.

Jesus knew that he was made to die, but his earthly body was grieved, so he went into the Wilderness and fasted and prayed for 40 days and nights.  Afterward, he was weak and hungry when who should appear but Satan himself.  Once again, Satan tried to foul God’s plan by offering Jesus the whole world and everything in it if he would but bow down and worship him.  At the same time scolding Jesus for not producing bread and eating in his hungry state. Jesus responded only by saying that “man cannot live by bread alone”.

When Jesus died a horrible death on the cross and ascended three days later into Heaven, Satan knew that he was defeated.  But he would never give up.  If he couldn’t win, then he would take as many of God’s beloved humans with him as he could.  Did he not have all of these humans contaminated with Nephilim blood that were on his side?  God probably laughed when he heard that thought enter Satan’s mind.  Satan was so involved in his embitterment that if never occurred to him that God had made a cavaet in the death of Jesus.  The apostles left behind by the empowerment of the Holy Spirit, would go throughout the world and preach the good news that God would accept those with contaminated blood, if they believed in Him and accepted Jesus Christ as their Savior, then they would be saved.  Saved from the destruction that would be the final fate of Satan and his minions.  A gift that Satan never dreamed that God would give, out of His goodness and His Grace.  After all, he had worked so hard to build up his followers, and now they could all go the other way because God had made it too easy.

All over the world nowdays, God is being discredited.  Jesus must compete with Mohammad, who was merely a man.  One World Government has been tried over and over again, sometimes by subjugation, sometimes by conquest.  It has never worked and will never work, but some men have accepted the Satanic plan of quiet tyranny.  Even the president of the United States requires that crosses be covered if he is to deliver a speech.     The stage is set, the armies are ready.  We are at the point where Satan’s plan and the Will of God converge.  The Endgame.  In God’s terminology it is called the Omega.

SEVEN BILLION AND COUNTING

For years I have been asking the question who is THEM? Is THEM the president? The Congress?  The Senate? Before this administration came into power, at least we all had the “illusion” of being a free, democratic nation, and most of us trusted our representatives to represent us.  Not so anymore; we are all too busy watching CSPAN and monitoring government that we can’t even pursue our hobbies.  A sorry state of affairs.

In 1954 a group of very wealthy and influential people met at the Bilderberg Hotel in the small Dutch town of Oosterbeek.  Sponsored initially by the Rockefeller family and the Dutch Royal Crown, “THEM” became The Bilderberg Group, comprised of news agencies, big corporations, politicians and even entertainers.  These people would meet in secluded spots, surrounded by tight security, and always in secret.  No reporters were allowed so the attendees could “speak freely without fear of their words being misconstrued by the public”. There were some attendees, however, that disagreed with their tactics and their agenda, so they would “leak” these secrets to chosen journalists.  However, THEM always knew that anything reported could be ho-hummed by our words against yours or you must be a constpiracy theorist.  In this way THEM could always deflect their accusers.  Until now.

Presently in the White House, THEM supported and financed their own Manchurian Candidate to take the United States from even a resemblance of a free Federal state.  In five months time,  the U.S. has become a semi-socialist-facist state at the speed of light.  Normal Americans who are conservative have suddenly  become enemies of the State. The fortunes of investors disappeared overnight. Small businesses have either bankrupted or scaled back.  Banks, insurance companies and car companies are told what to do and how much money to pay their employees by the government.  Construction companies aren’t building anything and nearly 10% of the population are jobless.

Now we have been “told” that human activity is causing greenhouse gases bringing on a “premature” global warming.  Folks, CO2 doesn’t go up into the atmosphere and cause anything.  It is 1.5 heavier than air so it can’t get up there; it is absorbed by plant material.  Plants like it and produce oxygen for us to breath.  So what do all these experts really mean?  I think they mean that there are nearly 7 billion souls on the earth using resources and that’s way too many.  Among this 7 billion are 3 billion useless eaters.  Folks over 65 are suddenly useless because they are eligible for social security and medicare, and of course, we all know that Congress have stolen and spent 55 billion of the SS Trust fund and left paper IOU’s in their place. Then  there is the matter of unborn babies aborted in their 3rd Trimester, thrown into a closet and left to die, also useless eaters.  Further, there are the disabled, infirmed and military amputees also considered to be useless eaters; and also the homeless, poverty ridden families living in cars.

All around us we see plans forming to delete America as we know it.  The latest from the THEM is plan to impose forced vaccinations on an unsuspecting public for swine flu, proclaimed by the World Health Organization and the UN as a pandemic.  Thing is, swine flu doesn’t meet the criteria for pandemic.  If that doesn’t work to get rid of U.S. citizens, then there will be denial of medical services and medicines for folks over 65 (in the words of the prez himself) if his “healthcare” bill is passed.  There are a lot of reasons that THEM want to get rid of US.  Just think  — they can own everything and they will have (maybe) 2-3 billion people around who will be at their beck and call — they will be KINGS AND QUEENS of the whole world and 2-3 billion are a lot easier to control.

This subject is one that even the most rightwing radio talk show host will stay completely away from any discussion of the Bilderbergers and they will tell you “I want to keep my job”.   Neal Boortz admits that he wants to keep his job and Mark Levin says “I never discuss conspiracy theory” and hung up on his caller.  Looking back at the last five or six months, there is no denying that much has happened that used to be merely “conspiracy”.

If I Were President ……

I have thought about this many times.  What would I do if I were President and had a reasonable Congress? Upon thinking about this and reading many books and opinions, I decided that our Constitutional government is the most perfect among all of the governments and experiments that have been tried on the Planet on which we have been allowed to live.  Only the return of Christ would be better.  Our Constitution was written and performed based on God’s Law.  So there would be a number of changes I would make to return this nation to a nation of We The People of the United States.

  • Teach our children the tenent of the Constitution and Bill of Rights original to the Founders’ principles.  Accompanying this, the Bible should be taught and prayer invoked into our educational programs so our children will know who they are and why our system of government is important. Civics would be part of the permanent cirriculum so our children would be able to hold governmental office and continue its form and purpose with knowledge instead of their own ideas. Also with this knowledge, they would be prepared to vote and choose leaders intelligently.

Founders Leaped 5000 Years (Now We Leap Backwards)

It took 180 years to write the Constitution and Bill of Rights.  The founders began to develop our Great Constitution by first reading and studying the many forms of government; being thinking men, they began to  form the framework years before anything was ever written down.  These men were farmers, teachers, military men, blacksmiths and others from all walks of life.  The thing they had in common was a desire to learn, so they studied the philosophies of Plato, Aristotle and Cicerio.  The book The 5000 Year Leap describes the reasons why a Republic was chosen over a Democracy :

There are many reasons who the Founders wanted a republican form of government rather than a democracy.  Theoretically, a democracy requires the full participation of the masses of the people in the legislative or decision-making processes of government.  This has never worked because the people become so occupied with their daily tasks that they will not properly study the issues, nor will they take the time to participate in extensive hearings before the vote is taken.  The Greeks tried to use democratic mass participation in the government of their city states and each time it ended in tyranny.

James Madison contrasted democracy and republican form of government  in The Federalist Papers, No. 10, Page 81. He went on to point out that an expanding country like the United States could not confine itself to the limitations of a democracy, but had to rely on a representative or republican form of government to protect the expanding interests of its people.   He said

In a democracy the people meet and exercise the government in person; in a republic, they assemble and administer it by their representatives and agents.  A democracy, consequently, must be confined to a small spot.  A republic may be extended over a large region (The Federalist Papers, No. 14, p. 100)

The 5000 Year Leap also explains the modern emphasis on “Democracy”.

The creation of the current confusion developed as a result of a new movement in the United States.  Approximately 100 people met in New York in 1905 and organized what they called the Intercollegiate Socialist Society (ISS).  Chapters were established on more than sixty college and university campuses coast to coast.   In time the co-directors explained that the ISS was set up to “throw light on the world-wide movement of industrial  democracy known as socialism” (The New York Times, Jan 28, 1919)

What was this new movement attempting to accomplish?  Socialism is defined as “government ownership or control of all means of production, (farms, factories, mines and natural resources) and all the means of distribution (transportation, communications and the instruments of commerce).  Obviously. this is not a democracy in the classical sense.  And it is the very antithesis of a free market economy in a republic.

This is where we are and where we are heading right now.  Plans are underway to seize all waterways which includes creeks, streams and rivers that may be running through private properties.  (seizure of natural resources) Seizure of the internet are also underway.  The current administration already “owns” or controls the print and TV media, threatening talk radio.  Ownership of the auto industry and financial markets are now government projects.  This looks like Socialism to me.

Child of the Great Depression

My Dad was an extraordinary man.  I didn’t know that he was extraordinary until he died at the age of 83.  It was my Mom who fed me, took care of me, listened to my problems and conveyed all of my problems to Dad who rarely ever confronted me.  He was irrevelant to my young life which was as much his fault as it was mine. After all, I was a girl. Girls don’t fish, or hunt deer, or fix cars.  Girls were supposed to do girlie things, according to Dad, not fish, not hunt, not fix things.  But I am getting ahead of myself.

Born in 1914, Dad was a child of the Great Depression.  He was a middle child of eight children; five brothers and two sisters.  His Dad was a truck farmer, a stone and brick layer, living from hand to mouth doing whatever could be done for pennies.  Dad walked five miles to school, rain or shine and graduated when he was in the eighth grade because in his family it took every person working full time to support the family.  There was one time that my grandfather hired himself and all of his sons to pick cotton for 25 cents  a day.  Dad didn’t much like that idea, so he and one of my uncles made a deal with my grandfather. Dad told Grandad that he would go fishing and make more money in a day than he would make picking cotton and would pay his share.  That was exactly what he did.  He fished for catfish, crappie and bass, took the fish to town and sold them for 10 cents a pound.  He paid Grandad $1.50 every week and pocketed the rest.

After Dad married my Mom on the eve of World War II,all my uncles joined the Army or the Navy, but Dad was rejected because he had lead poisoning.  He did have to work in the Defense Industry which happened to be Convair in Fort Worth, Texas. (Convair evolved into General Dynamics after the War)  During World War II, there was a shortage of rubber, largely because the rubber plantations in South America were owned or operated by Nazi sympathizers.  The rubber shortage meant that tires for airplanes were in short supply.  Planes would come in for landings and would blow out the tires which meant that they had to be changed each time they came in from a mission.  Convair was desperate to solve the problem of blown tires and it was my Dad that invented the motor than started the landing gear spinning before the plane hit the ground.  That solved the problem of blown tires and Convair got the credit.  Dad got a thank you.  He was happy with a thank you.  It never occurred to him to sue, ask for money or credit.

Dad saved enough money at Convair to buy a tiny house and acre of land in Graham, Texas.  In 1945, he added a new kitchen, a bathroom and two bedrooms.  He paid cash for all of it because he did not believe in being in debt to anyone.  Just outside the house he built a lean-to shack, constructed a big pond, dug a well and went into the fish bait business.  On the weekends, he and an uncle would seine minnows from the creek or river, bring them back home and Mom and I would sell fish bait all week long.  During the week, Dad was a brick and stone contractor and bricked or rocked  most of the homes in Graham.  There was nothing that Dad couldn’t make or invent, so he made his own water agitators, stink bait, hauling tanks, parts for the well, parts for the car and was very, very frugal in all his dealings.  He was an honest man who never had a bad word for his fellow man; he was a follower of Christ, a 32nd degree Freemason and earned the respect of all who knew him.  He hated Herbert Hoover, though, and blamed him for the Depression, but meanwhile praising FDR for getting them all out of the Depression.  Everyone believed that back then.

As our country speeds into a socialist state, I wonder if my grandsons will have the same kind of forbearance and ingenuity that my Dad had to withstand what is in store for them in the next few years.They have the same blood running through their veins, but have never known any kind of hardship like my Dad and Mom when they were children.  I wonder … will  they overcome these hardships?  Will they manage to feed themselves and their children?  Will they turn to God and repent for their sins and forgive the sins of those who created hell in their lifetime?  Will they make a better life for themselves and their children?  I have to believe they will.  After all, Dad was their ancestor.

“Change” That Nobody Understood

If you wonder where I have been, here it is:  There has been so much information coming at all of us so fast and furiously that I have been sitting in a corner sucking my thumb with a blanket over my head.

Folks, the citizens of the United States currently have a $8.9 TRILLION DOLLAR DEFICIT.  The Chief Pirate of the USA wants more, but is quick to disdain the price as “unsustainable”. So I have to ask the question “Why are you spending so much, feller?”  Then, “Why are you trying to destroy the United States of America?”  Then, “Why are you trying to bankrupt the poorest among you as well as the car industry, the banking industry, the insurance industry, and only Heaven knows what else before you are through?”

Take a look at www.cbo.gov/doc.cfm?index=10014 which is the Congressional Budget Office Income and Expenditure chart showing the 2009 budget.  The expenditures are larger than ever before and the income is way low.  Could this be because there are now 6 million people without jobs (and counting)?  Every month we are losing 650,000 jobs.  If that weren’t enough to make even the most insensitive and barbaric lawmakers have a stroke, we are also considering another tax called “Cap and Trade” (’scuse me; I mean Cap and Tax) raising fuel costs for an average family $1500 to $3000 per year.  Then there is “National Health Care” with new estimates costing into the trillions.

Sorry, Chief Pirate,  you are going to have to work a 48  hour day if you insist on being a banker, car maker, energy provider, insurance salesman and doctor all at the same time.  Really I would have to worry about your health to levy that much stress.  OH, you say you  have Czars in charge of all that?  You mean these guys who are unelected are going to have the final say in how I live?  Now that is really worrisome considering the folks you have in place.  Just look at Janet Napolitano – this lady thinks I am a terrorist and she told me so and never apologized for it; all she said was “this shouldn’t have been released”

Dear Leader, I gotta ask you, “Just who are you working for?”  Could it be George Soros, who has so generously funded your senatorial and presidential campaign? The George that is wanted in 3 countries for financial fraud?  Or is it the Labor Unions, those staunch Americans who demand tit for tat for their millions?  Maybe that ACORN organization that illegally registered voters and who are paid for by taxpayer money and guaranteed you the 2008 election?  O, so many questions, so few answers; I languish in uncertainty!

Is it any wonder I have abandoned you in my abismal state of mind? Forgive me.  From now on I will try to act adult-like despite an atmosphere of change.  O, George Bush, Bill Clinton, George Hubert Walker Bush — come back, come back, I didn’t mean everything I said! At least you were born American!

The Meatloaf Circus

Wall Street has always come up ways to make money.  Several years ago, it was corporate buyouts and arbitrage and then, some genius came up with derivatives. That is where the meatloaf theory came into being.  Instead of selling a mortgage note outright, maybe a few hundred mortgage notes were thrown into a hopper and out came a meatloaf.  It seems that anything that might be legal but unethical is Wall Street’s forte.  This is especially true of the housing crisis of 2008.  Banks and Wall Street sold, resold and resold again the mortgage notes of unsuspecting mortgagees.  All of these notes were dumped into the meatloaf and sold off in slices.  Oh, they were insured, of course, which is how AIG got into the picture.  Feeling really safe, purchasers of these slices of the meatloaf were entirely unaware it seems that there was nothing backing up the purchase except a piece of paper named securities.  All was well on Wall Street as long as the mortgagee was making payments.  Because dividends must be paid on the “securities”, the mortgagee’s interest payment went up staggeringly until they no longer were able to pay.

Journalist Bob Ivy tells an interesting story:

Joe Lents hasn’t made a payment on his $1.5 million mortgage since 2002.  That’s when Washington Mutual Inc first tried to foreclose on his home in Boca Raton, Florida.  WaMu failed to prove that it owned Lent’s mortgage note and dropped attempts to take his house.  Subsequent efforts to foreclose have stalled because no one has produced the paperwork. “If you are going to take my house away from me, you better own the note” said Lents, 63, the former chief executive officer of a now defunct voice recognition software company.

Judges in at least five states have stopped foreclosure proceedings because the banks that pool mortgaages into securities and the companies that collect monthly payments haven’t been able to prove they own the mortgages.  The confusion is another headache for U.S. Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson as he revises rules for packaging mortgages into securities.

I think it’s going to become pretty hairy, said Josh Rosner, managing director at the NY based investment research firm Graham Fisher & Co.  Regulators appear to have ignored this, given the size and scope of the problem.

More than $2.1 trillion or 19% of outstanding mortgages have been bundled into securities by private banks, according to Inside Mortgage Finance, a Bethseda, Maryland-based industry newsletter.  Those loans may be sold several times before they land in a security.  Mortgage servicers who collect monthly payments and distribute them to security investors, can buy and sell the home loans many times.

So ~ given this information, why wouldn’t those who are foreclosed upon just be willing to stay put and wait for the market to sort itself out.  It is clear that when lenders cannot produce the original note to argue their position in court, that judges have no recourse but to rule in favor of the mortagee.  After all, there is such a thing as “squatters rights”, and if there is no note, then there cannot be debt.

I believe that this is the core of the problem that faces the nation in this economic crisis.  The Fed as well as Fanny and Freddie can’t produce original notes.  It is not that folks are in such need of a “stimulus” such as the $275 billion that Obama announced to help these “homeowners”.  The Fed is probably downright mad that there have been some homeowners have figured out like Joe Lentz in the story above that they can claim what is no longer secured. Funny thing to me that economists, commentators, news agencies, etc., have never presented this angle.  Who do you think will win this round — Wall Street or the Joe Lentz’s of the world?
