One of the things about being brilliant, prophetic, and clairvoyant is that sometimes they all come together so that you can be brilliantly prophetically clairvoyant.  I see a Perfect Storm of things occurring that, at least in my telescope, suggest that the problems with Obama's healthcare program being adopted are just the beginning of problems that the average citizen is going to have with bigger government, higher taxation, and attempts at more control over individual lives. 

Obama's healthcare reform isn't happening because he doesn't know who his audience is.  That and the fact that despite being a champion debater he has done the worst job of communicating his ideas since Richard Nixon said " I am not a crook".The vast majority of wealth creators in the country are small business people with less than 500 employees who sweat profits out each month and  cash flow like a fat guy on safari. 

 To have an Ivy League Academic, who has not so much as run even a lemonade stand in his life but instead has been on the public dole, point his finger and tell me as a business owner what I'm going to do and not going to do is not a way to make friends and influence people.  It just simply isn't going to happen. 

Most Americans are happy with their health insurance and Barack is just unhappy that they aren't happy with his new ideas.  Barack reminds of the kid in the neighborhood who on the first day of school invites you over to play in his backyard.  The problem is once you get there,  you really understand what the weekend is about.  It's about cutting his grass, cleaning his toys, and picking up doggie litter from the far corners.  But it's alright, because we'll at least be in it together.....and the dog poopy will be the best part of it.  Then what you find out at the end of your poopy picking up day is that you've been doing all this work so his real friends can come over.

  Lest someone interpret "racist" innuendo here, just understand that I don't mind a black man being President and in fact, I am delighted that a man of "color" was elected.  I just wish it was Michael Jordon  or Magic Johnson instead.  At least they understand winning.  I would've voted for Oprah had she run just because of her success as a business owner.  That, and she likes dogs.

The increased tax thing isn't going to fly long term either.  At a point, people will just stop paying.  And the reason they can is technology makes hundreds of transactions possible that weren't before.  One of the best transactions it makes possible is organized protest.  Imagine how the IRS would react to 60 million tax payers organized on Twitter just refusing to file.  They can't even collect all the taxes that are owed now, so imagine those 60 million saying the equivalent of "Bite Me" and throwing their forms in the waste can until some accountability is brought back to the way we spend money.  Understand that I am not suggesting that you don't pay your taxes or don't file.  I'm just suggesting you start asking where the value is.

At a point, we go off the "Bank Standard" and go back to the "Barter Standard".  The FICO scoring system is such a joke and was really designed to take everyone without a steady job and make them wish they had one.  FICO tells the world what you've done wrong but not what you've done right.  It doesn't take into account that while bills are set up to be paid in 30 day increments, cash flow doesn't work like that as an entrepreneur.  In fact, the only thing that Ive seen that works in consistent 30 day periods are full moons, high tides and menstrual cycles. I've often said that the difference between a big bank and a big brothel is that in the big brothel the transaction is more straightforward. 

It's interesting that in the Christian New Testament, Jesus threw the money changers out of the temple with some pretty harsh words and a pretty big whip.  Now, there's an idea.  The next time we find a bank who's done something like Bear or Lehman, let's just have an old fashioned Son of God flogging on Wall Street.  That'll show them.

 What do ordinary people do when cash is tight?  In this last little slowdown, we've had to fundamentally extend terms to our best clients and we've had to ask for terms from our best vendors.  Why?  Because I don't have a machine in my office that prints $100 bills when I have to have them.  The FICO system is fundamentally designed to make sure minorities, the self-employed, and every other non-bureaucratic, enterprize stays in some sort of credit score purgatory that's designed to absolutely minimize the losses that large financial institutions face from lending money  to the vast unwashed millions.

  I have to tell you that as someone who is both recovering and beating a Stage IV Malignant Brain Tumor, I'd much rather have the Tumor to fight than than the Banking Con Artists.  Why?  The rules for beating the Brain Tumor are much more structured.  Even  having Herpes II would be better than trying to correct a low FICO score.  It's just so humorous to me and more than just a little ironic that AIG can almost bring down the entire global financial system with it's lies and slow claims paying strategies and then borrow 130 billion from the Government while for the ordinary citizen it takes 6  months to get a late Visa payment notice off your reports.

Here's how the Revolution or The New Boston Tea Party gets started:

1. Streaming Video: A $100 webcam, software like VM DIRECT or YOUTUBE, and a library with overhead can lights and you have the equivalent of your own TV studio.  Create your own channel.  Call it "I'm pissed off" of "Revolution TV" or "The Patriot Channel" but start broadcasting your own ideas.  You'll find a following.  Just mimic the TV Evangelists. These guys are the real experts at raising money for a cause.  Even Jimmy Swaggart, who was caught in a compromising position years ago is back on the air.  Your first show should be where you confess all your sins ( so no one else does it for you), ask for forgiveness, and then get on with the axe you have to grind. Here's a thought though: stay out of cheap hotels with midgets and choker collers if you're going to be a serious thought leader.

2. Social Networking:  Lance Armstrong got 1,000 people to show up for a casual ride in Ireland just by announcing he was going on one through Twitter.  Think of Twitter as sort of a secret society connector.  You can be like the Swamp Fox during the American Revolution.  It will take years for the Government to find you.  They are still waiting for the 8 track to make a comeback so Twitter is not even on their viewing screen..

3. Technology Aggregation:  New technology platforms like VM Direct allow you to access broadcast quality capabilities such as video e-mail, pay per view, live broadcast, channel creation, etc. from one platform PLUS earn revenue from your creations.

What the Government doesn't understand is that the older you get, the more conservative you get.  It also doesn't understand that the new media technology is the new goverment.  Let's hope they don't figure it out any time soon.

In the meantime, just get started.
