The 4 Horsemen of the Apocalypse

The bible predicts 4 horsemen to appear before the apocalypse. Pestilence, War, Famine, and Death. As 2012 approaches, the signs become clear.

The White Horseman, Pestilence, carries a pandemic, clearly Swine Flu

The Red Horseman, War, wields a mighty sword. Obviously WWIII against China and India in our struggle to prevent them from becoming the economic world leaders

The Black Horseman, Famine, has 2 likely forms, with the most probable being both. Global warming induces a massive climate shift and cooling of Europe and the world due to salinity levels of the ocean dropping because of melting ice caps and therefore stopping the jet stream current. And in the new frozen age, after a planet is ravaged by war, we cannot grow enough food to feed ourselves. Or we invent nanobots that run a muck consuming everything in their paths.

The Pale Horsemen, Death, will occur on Dec. 21, 2012, a the end of the 13th Mayan calendar baktun, just as Nostradamus predicted, by deadly concoction of events. Alien invasion, comet collision, and genetic modification ultimately causing the extinction of homo sapiens.

The Inevitability of Socialm in the U.S.A.

The U.S.A. has practically become the U.S.S.A. Government spending is as high as it’s been since the second World War. Obamunism abounds. Socialism, has nearly set in. Unbeknownst to most, in our past, we already have been a socialist state. By any description socialism occurs when the government spends more than 50% of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP), and it occurred at an interestingly similar period in our nations history. As we slip into what is inevitably another great depression, history presents us just one mere solution to our recessionary problem. Socialism.

There was no end to the depression in site, all social projects and government plans flailed for years with little to no avail. Then along came a blessing, WWII. With patriotic spirit a fervor and a 25% joblessness rate maintained for so long, the masses were eager to work. Starting from 19%, the 1941 fraction of the GDP spent by the government more than doubled to a whopping 50% by 1944, and peaked out at 53% in 1945. The war saved capitalism, by inducing a socialist state. So as this recession spreads across the globe (just like the Great Depression), with unemployment rising whilst international trade crumbles, our percent spent of the GDP for 2009 so far is at 45%. This is an 8% jump from the 2008 eight levels at 37%. Including Obama’s not so stingy nature towards government spending, the economic scale will clearly dip onto the socialist side in a matter of years.

Yet socialism scares the patriotic populace. Examples such as the Soviet Union, Cuba, and North Korea only heighten the fear of government control. Of course these nations were actually run by dictators and barely adhered to the manifesto. And of course fear sells in the media, making these the most largely known examples. However, by looking elsewhere, we can see the beneficial effects of incorporating socialism into one’s own economy.

The Human Development Index (HDI) measures the general prosperity of a country, factoring in life expectancy, education level, literacy rate, and monetary prosperity levels. Scandinavian Socialists Iceland and Norway tie for the top seat with a rating of .968 out of 1. Ireland 5, Netherlands 6, Sweden 7. And where lies the U.S.S.A.? 15tj place, below Finland, Denmark, and Canada. Also to be considered is the top 10 happiest countries in the world. From the prior list we see repeats Denmark, Sweden, Switzerland, Iceland and Finland. Socialism must be horrendous.

Life is awful when you have socialized medicine. Knowing that I can be financially crippled by an untimely accident helps me sleep at night. Furthermore, I would personally enter a state of crazed rage if I couldn’t pay the tens of thousands of dollars for tuition and instead had to attend for no charge. As our spending increases in our attempts to save capitalism, the 50% GDP spending barrier’s rupture will force the Americans to accept a previously unimaginable truth. We are socialists. So why hinder the inevitable, only to prolong the transformation. People value their securities far more than their freedom to fail, and as soon as we accept this, the speed limits on the road to recovery are receiving a speed boost, from 55, to 88.

Obamunism

As the world slowly spirals into another Great Depression, it gives everybody a chance to reevaluate what each individual holds near and dear to them. Clearly, capitalism is low on the list. In capitalism, businesses succeed, and they also fail. In socialism, private companies are replaced with state run entities. And in fascism, private companies are supported by the government. With the auto industry receiving billions of dollars, and by allowing them to not fail, I question you, what path are we heading down? The U.S. was stuck in the rut of depression until WWII. The way I see it, the only way to stop the current decline in the global economy is war. WWIII begins 2012

Scripted freestyle (so not freestyle)

The firemen came to quell the fire
Heat like plasma made us all perspire
I threw some tacs in the street just to pop the tire
No need to run away cuz ima frequent flier

Now just about the time that cops came round
I killed a fifth of everclear and was on the ground
When they chained me in cuffs, I didn't make a sound
Jail times the only way to make a gangsta' renowned

I've found this town nestled between wheat mounds
Has few too many thugs, and far too many clowns
Learning curve like an Einstein I grow in leaps and bounds
If you try to find my path ya gonna need some blood hounds

Since day one I've plotted
The seeds I've sown are sodded
And e'ry body knows it aint trickin' if you got it

They all swagger jacked my cookin'
When I wasn't lookin'
Can't catch me twice next time they come, I'm bookin'

Que será, será

Ha sido mas que 4 meses hasta que yo estaba en Argentina, hablando una otra lengua y viviendo una vida mas tranquilo y facil. Asi voy a ponderar el pasado un poquicito. Las mujeres eran las mas bonitas en general en todo el mundo. En los colectivos, en los boliches, en los parques, practicamente en todos partes de mi ciudad, Buenos Aires. Toda la gente hablaba con sinceridad. No con mentiras blancas, mis campesinos del otro hemisferio no tenian ningun problema decir los defectos mios a la cara. Ademas, los extranjeros tenian una mente similar a mi. Toda la gente no gastaban tanto dinero que los de los estados unidos, y aprendí que el dinero no es la cosa mas importante en la vida. Por supuesto has oido del Latin Lover, y es verdad. Se cubre las vidas de todos los latinos, y ellos viven con mas felicidad. No sé tondo la vida me traerá, y por eso, voy a continuar mi exploraciones en el universo. Recordá, que voy a vivir para siempre.
