World View I believe. There's an interesting documentary on-line by that name that's been around for a while. The essence of it is that people have been getting manipulated for centuries...for the sake of power and money, if you can believe that.

The creation of central banks, such as our Federal Reserve, that are controlled by an international banking cartel, is a fact. The role that people such as the Rothchilds and the robber barons of Americas past play is expounded upon in a very convincing way. One of Ron Paul's primary political convictions has to do with the unconstitutionality and idiocy of our own Federal Reserve, which we don't own by the way.
Our Fed is owned by its member banks (eg, the Federal Reserve Banks of Chicago, of New York, of San Fransisco, etc.) and they in turn are owned by the aforementioned cartel of Banks like Goldman Sachs, CitiBank, and other international concerns that are thought to be controlled in turn by the Rothchilds among others.
While I'm not a fan of Yobama and his racist bullshit, he is not a Communist. He's an unapologetic Socialist, which the USSR was also. Socialist are all about gathering power to a strong central government, the antithesis of what our country was supposedly founded on. They also desire to take control of all industry, which if you're a Baby Boomer, you grew up hearing about what an abject failure the concept had always been in the USSR.
The author of
Atlas Shrugged, Ayn Rand, was an emigre from post czarist Russia who came to the U.S. and became a script writer in Hollywood before becoming a well known author.
We The Living was one of her first books that was somewhat autobiographical and described in great detail just how fucked up life in post revolutionary Russia really was. People lived as though they were still a hundred years in the past, heating with wood when they could find it, or on small Primus cook stoves (the type that we used to use for back packing). Food was allocated to party members first, as were jobs, and if you didn't join the party you simply didn't eat. Even if you did get a food allotment you still had to wait for hours for a chunk of lard and a loaf of bread, all the while hoping that they didn't run out just before it was your turn I highly recommend both books. Although Atlas is over a 1000 pages long and written in the 30's it reads like today's news in so many respects that it's absolutely creepy.
Other than that, I'm still not believin' that our Muslim friend is even a legitimate citizen...sorta like his aunt that he just granted asylum to...'cuz she's his aunt. (what crap!).
There's a whole lot of shit in that bill that should enrage every sensible American citizen, but there are fewer and fewer of them around every day, thanks in no small part to our totally failed public education system. It seems that the status quo has a vested interest in keeping the proletariat as dumb, unworldly and uneducated as possible. That way they're all so busy just working to pay taxes and survive from one day to the next that they never have a chance to stop and look at what these fucks are doing to us.
If it wasn't Obama it would have been some other asshole that got their chance to play puppet in the sun. In many ways Obama is just Bush ver. 2.0. Just look at the shitpile in the Middle East. Do you know anyone who gives a fuck about bringing democracy to Absurdistan or Iraq? I sure as hell don't. Especially at the human and capital costs involved. We're there to protect corporate oil and nothing more...at any cost.
Our country maintains over 730 military bases in foreign countries throughout the world. That makes England, France and the rest of Europe's colonial powers look like pikers even at the height of their imperialist hegemony during the 19th century. Why do we need these bases? To carry out the will of the puppet master of course.
Obama is an incompetent boob, there's no doubt, but just another in a long line of incompetent boobs. JFK mentioned such a situation in a speech just a few weeks before he was killed by the magic bullet. If we were to elect a populist who took the Constitution literally and tried to dissolve the Fed and the IRS, and bring all of our troops home, he'd be assassinated in his first week on the job. Ever wonder why we can put a man on the moon, decode the human genome and stick a smart bomb right up a gnats ass but we can't keep a Mexican from walking across the desert? 'Cuz there's no will to do it of course...at least not where the "One Worlder's" are concerned. Eventually our worthless scrip will undoubtedly be melded into the peso and the Canadian dollar just like the Euro. This isn't fiction, this is NAFTA.
Time to hoist the black flag and start slitting some throats.
Here's some other documentaries and websites that'll give ya something to discuss with your buddy. My wish is that every body would watch and read more stuff like this if for no other reason than to incite them to constantly question and challenge authority. That was probably one of the best parts of the sixties ideology that went by the wayside once the hippies all started up dot coms or became Wall Street who'ers.
