Guest Steven1963 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Things are changing and not necessarily for the better. Here's a link to a man named Martin Armstrong. Do yourselves a favor and read his stuff/research who he is and what he does. You can thank me later. http://armstrongeconomics.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only bad thing that would happen to him if he's NOT re-elected (doubtful), is that he'd go back to living in better homes and flying in a more luxurious private jet, and, worst of all the blow to his EGO, which would be the very worst thing.

Maybe some kind of electronic wizardry llike "drone catchers" with claws. JJK I totally disagree with this comment. The Russian wall was to keep people IN after cutting Germany in half. Walls that keep people OUT always work. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
