OK so we’ve chosen to take the little red pill and now we’re finally waking up to realize that there’s much more than a single rabbit hole-it’s a matrix of subsurface channels and tunnels that are undermining our liberties and rights in America.

Think of this analogy drawn from the Matrix (if you haven’t seen the movie-take time to do so).  The bad guys are the Agents, who are actually programs of a huge Artificial Intelligence complex that has taken over the world. They seek out and destroy anomalies, i.e. free-thinking awakened humans. They can take over the minds of sleeping humans at will.

A certain agent, Mr. Smith, poses as the main villain. His vendetta is to destroy Mr. Anderson, the story’s hero “Neo”: first by persuasion, then intimidation, then outright extermination. Agents are the globalist enforcers; Neo and his fellow rebels are the last surviving humans who are aware and fighting the system. They are the anomalies that mess with the program. They are the last people standing.

The folks that were radicals back in the 60′s and 70′s, have now attained positions in the media, politics, and many entities like NGO’s, the UN, and even some powerful corporations (like GE). Those that were once the anti-establishment are now established. One might even say they’ve constructed a global system designed to equalize that which makes us human. “Artificial Intelligence” in the form of such malapropisms as (scientific consensus) is creeping in,  especially when it comes to cleverly advancing their missions. They’ve insinuated their programs into every aspect of our lives: energy, economics, education, and environment, as they seek to control all aspects of human existence. The ONE thing they abhor is anybody  who is awake and refusing to sit down and shut-up…..that is anyone behaving as they once did back in their day.

It’s hard to conceive of anyone watching the Matrix and feeling kinship for the Agents or the massive global entity they represent. Except for a few, we ALL are rooting for Neo and his group to win the war. Yet, how easily we buy into the world organizers’ traps.

And, the Mr. Smiths are populating themselves in every little nook from the kid in 9th grade to the corporate billionaire, populating just like, like….rabbits. The buzz words about green and sustainable and smart this and that have entered not just our lexicon but our collective consciousness.

What we truly need are more anomalies like Neo and company who don’t cotton to the matrix of Agenda 21 and will neither shut up nor sit down.

DERIVING US MAD……PART ONE

It’s easy to understand derivatives by performing the following exercise.

Take a nice crisp dollar bill. Lay it on a copier machine and make a copy (just one side will do- let’s NOT be criminal). Now compare the print out with the original. How’s it look? Aside from the obvious color and texture differences, it’s a pretty faithful counterfeit, right? Now make a copy of the copy and compare that one to the original. Little fuzzy, huh? You can repeat this several times over comparing the copy of the copy of the copy to the original and see that eventually after repeated duplications the end copy is only a meagre resemblance to the original dollar.

So this is how derivation works: whether it’s the weakening of the US dollar or diluting where the buck stops in any given bureaucracy (try calling back the last techie  you were talking to in Haridwar (India) before you got cut off) or how about getting a prompt appliance warranty repair from a big box store like Sears? Or, for an extended foray into red tape bog, decide to adopt a child, internationally, from a developing country, that used to be communist but has yet to send any bureaucrats packing.

Interestingly,  the same type of degeneration via duplication is a major cause of aging. The original cells get corrupted with each Xerox. Our DNA stretches only so far. Our bodies cannot derive our cells forever, much to the delectation of plastic surgeons, botox cosmologists, and funeral parlor proprietors.

Information is also compromised. The circle game of beginning a story and retelling from person to person affirms that what goes in never comes around and out the same way. In fact, the differences are often striking if not hilarious, hence the popularity of such games.

What is rumor but a derivation of a nugget of truth? What is propaganda but a manipulative promulgation of rumor mongering?

“And, after all, what is a lie? ‘Tis butThe truth in masquerade.” Lord Byron, Don Juan

We as humans are ourselves derivations, for good or ill, of our past genealogical heritage just as our kids are derivations of us. We are not God, so the Bible says (though some persons in power act like it), rather we’re made “in the image” of God, meaning we’re not clones of the Creator, and the vast majority of us aren’t even signed and numbered limited editions. The Star Trek replicator has yet to appear.

Not to disparage derivation altogether. Better to inoculate with a derived antibiotic than be prescribed, “Eat two pieces of this moldy bread and call me in the morning.” There’s hardly anything we touch that isn’t derived from a petroleum or natural gas source, and considering that which electrifies our world via coal, sun, water, or wind-it’s all ultimately connected to sun radiation (derived from fusion and a cosmic do-si-do between matter and anti-matter.(See http://www.grantchronicles.com/astro01.htm)

There are derivations that concentrate (such as the aforementioned antibiotic originating from bread mold) and derivations that dilute. In terms of fiat currency, or paper money that’s printed,  the world has yet to see a long term success.  No longer tied to gold, since 1971, the US dollar is now an abstract icon derived from our government’s  ”good faith and credit”. I’ve got in my wallet a wad of Federal Reserve Notes (really IOU’s) all signed by Timothy Geithner. What could go wrong?

The only difference between me copying dollar bills for circulation versus the US Bureau of Engraving and Printing doing the same is that they get to dilute the value legally. Tacitly a significant difference, but the end result is the same.
