Psh.  Try it

Were in Manas air force base ( the base in k.....something stan that you fly into country from ) ill be stuck here at least a day.  Maybe more.  They got internet and shit so ill make one or two last post.

But yeah I'm sure my  base will get internet eventually.  Probably in a couple months.  I'm just pretty sure they don't have it now.  But hey, they might.  I have a pretty funny video of what happened to me after I didn't sleep for 2 days straight then took two ambien on a 12 hour plane ride.  I guess I snore really loud.  ANd when slapping me in the face multiple times didnt wake me up.  They just drew on my face, and my teeth, and my eye lids in sharpie to get revenge for the snoring.  Hopefully I can find a way to upload it before I leave.  Its great.  So is walking through the airport in germany with a dick on your forehead.

Post by: Variable on Nov 05, 2009, 08:07 PM
People love to hate me.  It's all good.  Some people actually love me too.  Either way I'm getting love. 

Still doing good.  Actually I haven't done a dam thing since I have been out here except help with a bit of sickcall and try to start flirting with the few girls on this base.  Plus a couple of ranges to practice our combat shooting and stuff.  But we finally got all of our trucks and equipment and should start operating soon.

So if any of you are curious.  We no longer use the HMMWVs ( other wise knows as humvees or hummers ) anymore.  A fairly small blast will cause a catastrophic kill in them.  So we switched to MRAPs ( google that ) they can take a fucking blast.  No one has died in them in Iraq and Afghanistan from the actual blast.  A couple guys have died from rollovers and shit like that.  But they take the blast.  But each one cost $500,000.00 plus $400,000.00 to get them here.  Plus a lot of them ( 3 our of my 4 trucks ) have these super high speed cameras that cost $500,000.00 each.  We are rolling around in vehicles that cost a million and a half each.  Its fucking insane.  I wont get PTSD or combat stress from actual combat or treating casualties.  Nope, I'm going to get it from looking around at all the money we spend out here.  Money to build these huge bases, buy all this equipment, and build shit for the Afghans.  Don't get me wrong, I like the protection.  But I just don't see what we are gaining from this other than a few people making war profits.  I just wish we would pull out and end this madness.  Of course the only reason we are able to spend all of this money is because of the Federal Reserve and our "elastic currency".  If you want to end war, you got to end the fed.  It's very obvious especially from out here.

dude i'm totally with you, those things would be so great to have for domestic protection and the like, but it's so wasteful just using em for imperialism.  hey, check out this article if you're bored, i think you'd like it and it kinda has to do with the elastic currency bit.  you might/probably know most of this though, but dude writes really well imo.

I don't have time to read it right now.  But since its campaignforliberty I'm guessing its Ron Paul or someone inspired by him or Austrian economics.  Ill read it when I can.  I'm actually almost done with Ron Paul's new book "end the fed" its pretty good.  Says a lot of stuff that those of us who have been onto central banks for a while already know.  But its still worth reading.

oh yeah i figured you might be short on time, and yeah it's written by the head of the future of freedom foundation, jacob hornberger.  but i bet ronny says a lot regarding the gold standard in the book.  i should get on reading that.  this is the best quote ever, referenced in that article.


"The Reich chancellor requests Mr. Dodd to present his greetings to President Roosevelt. He congratulates the president upon his heroic effort in the interest of the American people. The president's successful struggle against economic distress is being followed by the entire German people with interest and admiration. The... Reich chancellor is in accord with the president that the virtues of sense of duty, readiness for sacrifice, and discipline must be the supreme rule of the whole nation. This moral demand, which the president is addressing to every single citizen, is only the quintessence of German philosophy of the state, expressed in the motto 'The public wealth before the private gain.'"
-Hitler
