Narcotics

My email spouts a good deal of spam that escapes the filters. Some of it promotes Viagra. It seems that by misspelling or with phonetic substitutions for the word, some of these messages get through the filters. Many of the deleted messages hint at narcotic names, Oxycodone, Vicodan and others. They would be illegal to sell over the internet. Could they be fraudulent offerings?

It brings up an interesting question. Would it be illegal to sell something legal under the pretext that it might be illegal? Two negatives make a positive, right. These messages cleverly bypass the filters. That says, big bucks.

Iatrogenicly addicted persons might be tempted to make a connection to obtain the blue pill of their desire. Just from observation, there must be a great number of prescription addicts out there. They might be a pushover for this kind of fraud. There would certainly be no recourse.

Promise a product with a similar spelling and the presumption that the misspelling avoids detection. Deliver the product, a sugar pill, labeled exactly like in the email and the perpetrators have fulfilled their part of the online contract. The addict now has exactly what he or she paid a high price for with no recourse other than the anti-spam laws.

Three major trends in the U.S. threaten to replace our Constitution and representative government with a totalitarian, internationalist, socialistic oligarchy. First, seventy years of Soviet subversion, the Vietnam War, and generations of youth who were taught to reject American institutions have undermined U.S. leadership. Now, Chinese espionage, bribery, and infiltration further contribute to the erosion of America’s traditions of citizenship, enterprise, and prosperity. Second, NGOs in Washington, an entrenched bureaucracy, and organizations like the Trilateral Commission prioritize internation...

Utopia

The Devil promises a utopia of worry-free egalitarianism beckoning you to an Orwellian hell of despondency. Its a matter of giving or taking. Work for your family and community supporting the common good, or take from the wealth of those who produce and promise benefits to those who do not and those destroyed by the theft of their own creation.

Inflation

Many retail investors buy individual stocks with growing confidence in a narket that has a long run. Many fail to appreciate the way the market reflects inflation. Company revenue consists of inflated number,s as does cost and profit, thus the market reflects true inflation which must now be near 100%.
