Wake Up Us All

A New State Of Affairs

This is a break from my usual business blog.

This blog purports to return to a new grass roots campaign in America. We live in the most powerful, wealthy plot of land in the world. So what are we doing? Collectively?

The United States purports to be the best place to live in the world. For starters, I agree, I suppose.

But let’s take a deep enthroned look at our individual lives, as they maybe. Let’s just go straight to the core. The News. We read and see daily, horrific news stories, good and bad. Perhaps the most recent horrific news is the Costa Concordia. Or the persons paralyzed in an ice hockey accident, or the humane society saving 140 dogs in one location, or the person(s) donating a kidney to a total stranger who will die without it.

What are we to make of it in the end?

This is a very short truth cut to the issue blog page. I am not going to listen to the controversial, the issues are what they are.

First and foremost, we do live in the best place in the world. Second we, as the people, have to take a stance, a grand stance, to go further.
This is the way I see it today, in 2012. We have a lot of regulation, by the government. Is this acceptable?

For instance, no lie here, I live in Minneapolis, Minnesota, in a house. I had a city inspector stop by one day, knock on my door, and state, “Your vehicle is parked on your grass.” I replied, “yes, the last time I checked, I was paying for the grass to park it on.”. He replied, and I quote, “It is a violation of city ordinance to park your vehicle on your grass”.

I said: “The hell you say.” Ok, so it is a violation to park on my grass. What are we doing? I am still parking on my grass, and I have not received a citation yet.

So what am I saying here? What I am saying is we are paying this city inspector to drive around, at the rate of $25/hour to say do not park on your own grass. All paid for by us, the taxpayer. I do take objection.
So let’s move a little bigger. We expect the government to protect us. And they should. We pay taxes for basic encumbrances for the welfare of the general population - government – City, County, State, and Federal.

We are doing a great job here. Except parking on my grass. “…In January 2000, this author's estimate that 14% of convictions are of an innocent person was published in Justice:Denied magazine.

Furthermore it was reported in 1997 that the FBI found that 25% of the suspects in 12,000 rape cases were excluded by DNA testing. That finding is particularly significant because exclusionary DNA evidence is only available in a small percentage of all criminal cases.” Source: http://forejustice.org/wc/mi_report_april04.html

Old 2004 news, I suppose the percentage today is 30%. But, I do not suppose, it really matters unless you are one of the innocent ones sitting in the pokey today, January 28th, 2012. But, to me, I am paying to lock up those innocent persons at an average cost of $60k per year. I am quite sure, they wished they were quite free. I am quite sure, I wished I had my taxpayer’s money back, and they were free. Not the guilty, just the innocent.

But, we do also need to be realistic, we were all slumbering in our fortunes, on 9/11, and we got caught unawares. But no more, my heart every day, thinks about each and every loss, and the endless family and friend connections. Strangely enough, I do not blame the “government”. I think it was a total collective failure. The only blame, that I see, that could lay on the federal government, was the lack of readiness to respond.

You know, it is really all Biblical, and goes back to forever, (Genesis16:8-12) Now listen to what God says next about the personality and character of the boy whose name is Ishmael, from whom the Arab nations would come from. " He will be a wild donkey of a man. He will be hostile to everyone, and everyone will be hostile to him.” Herein, purports to start our troubles, but I am not going to get into Biblical, historical, or otherwise, extreme controversy. So we are done here.

So if you want to look at it from a global and/or historical perspective, it is basically the concept, I want the world, today, at everybody else’s cost. It would be akin to a Hitler (or Ishmmael) perspective, I suppose.
The two most prosperous countries in the world? USA and Israel. Read history. You decide why.

So let’s delve back into the USA. Unfortunately, we have evolved into a “fix me” society. What happened to be responsible for your own actions, take responsibility for your own actions, do not let the government do this for you.
Do we need the government legislate morality? Yes, because we and you are irresponsible for your own actions. Take it to heart, and take action.
Be responsible; be responsible for your own action, and inactions. I do not need anybody to tell me what to do or not to do today. I still have a brain.

The formula for success is action inaction. 2 plus 2 equals 4.
Take action today. I have watched, since the economic downfall in 2008, everything, news wise, very closely. I used to think President Barack O’Bama was the worst President since Richard Nixon. But, you know, the more I have watched him and his actions, I think he should get another 4 years. He has done more for the average Joe, than you think. President Barack O’Bama consistently stands up against opposition. The opposition being the top echelon in American Society.

O’Bama is not business literate or experienced. But he still has the right ideas. For the average American. All in my opinion.

The American dream cannot fail, or we are done. I/we don’t need the government to legislate morality, or anything else. Let’s just go back to 1776 and redirect the concept with protection from the outside influences.

So, In the end, I am going to park on my $365 per month tax payments, on my grass, in my yard, but I will not be persuaded the middle income is diverging, and we need to do something different. By all mean’s comment.

Grass roots. Don’t tell me to not park on my grass, and be responsible. By the way, I am still parking on my grass.

There is A New Platform Out Today for Internet Entrepreneurs.

We are sick to death of internet schemes and scams. We are just as tired of affiliate marketing where we only make a few dollars per sale. Well, I have run across a fairly new concept that is currently sweeping every continent.

Before we continue, let’s go ahead and settle the scheme or scam issue.

First of all, according to compete.com, this platform has gone from 1,083 visitors per day last September 2011, to over 800,000 visits per day in November 2011.

Second, according to website informer.com, this platform has over 3.9 million page views per day, as of today.

Finally, according to Alexa.com, this new platform has a Global rank of 1,032 and a US rank of 347. That is out of approximately 185 million websites around the Globe. 347 out of 185 million. These are impressive trends, especially since September 2011.

Next we have to do our research. If you spend hours reading the reviews, there are good and bad, as with anything you research. So after reading mixed reviews - mostly good, I went to the website and watched the webinar.
I needed to decide myself. After watching the webinar, I studied on the whole concept very carefully.

Then my thoughts went back to the negative reviews. Some people, I will never figure out why they post such comments as they do. They obviously do not know how to comprehend a legitimate concept. I really think they just want everybody to hand them a ton of money. For example, two reviews stated it “was just another pyramid scheme” (which caught my eye quickly) and another was “another MLM scheme”.

It is not either. First of all, the pyramid concept is cut off because the entering person makes as much as the person who signed him on. It is not another MLM operation because; you get paid 100% commissions on your new entry, on every tier. Granted you do receive down line monthly residuals as in a MLM plan, but you still get the 100% commissions, on the front end.

You do have the option to upgrade to make one of several higher amounts of commissions, but it does not matter which level or tier you enter, you are still paid the 100% commission. I would describe the platform as a funnel concept.

The platform is a predefined model in which the potential can potentially reach income in the tens of thousands of dollars per month.

The concept is simple. You need to join, then go through the webinars, have a merchant account such as Pay Pal (step by step instructions included), start blogging. Then every day you want to spend about 1 hour per day blogging and marketing. That is it. A pretty simple system.

In my opinion, this platform is still very ground level, but it is also growing at a very exponential rate.

Click on any banner on the page to review the webinar and join. Of course, like any other offer, you can opt out at any time.
