February 11, 2008 journal, I painted spontaneously the capitol building hemorrhaging money and painted across the top 'going green' and across the bottom I wrote 'bailouts'. The new president said those people meeting him in Fort Myers Florida were looking for jobs and not a handout. He is right but Wall Street is looking for a handout and they got their handout many times now while the workers got the shaft. That is the way it is friend. Washington going money green. I admit to not seeing the price of-oil declining, today it's $35 a barrel lowest in many years but the price of gasoline is now at 1.90 per gallon and is going back up again so the rich get richer. Yes this is a rich nation but it cannot survive this depression because it is gutted internally by its own banking system and going down daily. The horrible reports of financial collapse fail to tell the full story of our situation. America is debt burdened and in the final stages of the total meltdown of our economy. The foreign Fed is our ultimate credit holder and they are now printing money to buy back the treasury bills issued to foreign and domestic investors which is the very last act before destruction of the American British empire that has ruled the world in the 20th-century. One of the oldest members of Congress spoke out as a Japanese senator from the State of Hawaii today in saying that we are in danger of a global collapse if America fails. 8 members of the crooked bankers alliance were grilled before Congress today asking what they did with the bailout money. What a joke. The president of BankAmerica in Charlotte North Carolina stated that he made $1.5 million per year. (For his services.) One member of Congress told them that what they do with their money is their business but what they do with tarp money is Congress business. Actually its banksters business. Most of the money the Fed authorizes becomes a bank computer figure and it is never actually printed. Admit to the American people that the Fed (Federal Reserve) is phony. New York's Mario Como said the trickle-down theory is silly that it never trickles down. Every recent president has given a $100 billion or more to road construction resulting in a few Mexican people standing holding up a shovel on minimum-wage while thousands die from the road blocks along the interstate highways and that is the elites trickle-down. The new president is in trouble with the mayor Las Vegas for what he said about the rich bankers partying there and has hurt their business where what happens stays in Vegas and if people believe that they are stupid. I painted for LasVegas the Bride of Christ for their one hundred anniversary art show in 2005 with the Las Vegas Strip as one world city of sin and separate from what is going on of the heavens. The painting is 10 by 20 feet Las Vegas Art Museum, the mayor was always personally generous giving to the art museum. States not asking for bailout money like Texas do not want to see other states draining the federal government for which we all pay or bear the debt. therefore, it will become harder for the federal government to keep the states aligned. Many states are already going for secession and their own sovereignty like the Soviet Union broke up in recent years as we all know. The Republic of Texas has been bucking for years to withdraw from the USA oppressive Union. The State of California is trying to release 50,000 prisoners early to relieve the overcrowding and disease infested retention centers costing them enormously. I expect soon their doors will burst open and all their prisoners will go free, all 160,000. What difference is one more trillion dollars going to make against our huge national debt which is artificial anyway? The real debt is 60 trillion at least while they will only admit to 10 or 12 trillion. We are long past the point of no return or to ever pay the debt off. In my 300 ft painting of the Book of Revelation I painted in 1994-7, I show the national debt at 6 trillion. It is common knowledge the national debt has doubled in the last eight years and will probably if we last double again in 4 years. Just print the money and pay off the debt and give the bankers a taste of their own medicine what they created from thin air and give them air to resolve the debt if anyone knows how much we owe to Fed.
