A brief Bio:
I’m a yankee, born and raised in Kansas. Had a rather strange childhood – not to imply that such is unusual however. I Began confronting bullies at an early age as I decided I’d rather die fighting than submit to the ignorant and cowardly. After the evils of mandatory schooling I, unwittingly joined Kansas Air National Guard. SSGT 304×0 134th attached to 184th out of McConnell AFB, Wichita. During my time in the military I attended Kansas State University and, after six years of studying everything on offer that I found of interest, obtained a B.S. Micro & Molecular Biology. After my term of service, I moved to Seattle and worked as DNA sequencing specialist and core facility manager for two corporations in Seattle during the 1990′s.
While working in Seattle, I began studying culture and politics, but remained undecided about what my political views were. toward the end of the 90′s I made an of attempt to start my own company, but failed due to, massive government paperwork and red-tape, as well as my inexperience with choosing business partners. I also did a stint trading derivatives on the stock market and it was during this time I began to realize how rigged the markets were, later coming to realize that the 401k system was a pyramid scheme that turned stock markets into casinos – owned and operated by the big investment houses and ultimately controlled by the privately owned federal reserve system.
I became quite disheartened at this point seeing government-enforced glass ceilings everywhere (installed by corporate-government cronies no doubt), although I didn’t realize that it was really a problem of government at that stage, rather I still naively thought it was a problem of too little corporate regulation! I wasn’t a fool, but had been so indoctrinated by the government schooling system that, well, I imagine it takes a while sometimes to realize you’re in a cult. I later came to see that religions are former governments, and then, that a cult is merely a religion with political clout and finally that government is itself a cult. But I digress. . .
I left Seattle and traveled the states a bit eventually coming to live on a kibbutz-style commune in southern Missouri for three years studying the effects of socialist practices on individual happiness and satisfaction – and learned first hand of the inadequacies alternative resource distribution systems. This time for me taught a clear lesson on the ills of socialism/collectivism which galvanized me toward capitalist/individualist/free-choice philosophy. Also during that time I continued my studies of the monetary system and peak oil.
Given all the problems I perceived at that time (I still was buying into the AGW hypotheses and even promoted it through this website), I moved to Australia at the end of 2003 in attempt to evade nasty collapse of civilization as peak oil and implosion of US dollar ponzi-scheme unfold post 2010. In short I let fear drive me into a corner – another mistake.
Today, while financially poor, I have two beautiful children and live, dream, & plan for a better future on the isle of Tasmania.
