Letter to 911 Truthers

The 911 Disaster killed more than 2800 of our fellow friends and citizens. It killed trust. 911 killed the basic relationships between people that allows for the growth of enterprise and the free exchange of ideas that made America work. Alexis De Tocqueville described our nation’s business and trusting relationships in glowing terms of endearment in his travels across our nation. The immediate actions of our government and the opposite reactions of the Birch faction have ripped the quilted fabric of civility away from my idealistic visions of my beloved nation. Government openly paying off victims, while alternate realities are concocted for the disenchanted and our trusts are further depredated. Without trust there is no commerce, no barter of goods or prosperity of exchange or ideas. Trust is a problem.

The shining city on a hill was only a description of the goodness De Tocqueville and Regan saw in the people of our country. He marveled at our countrymen’s ingenuity and web of relationship of trust that allowed our new nation to prosper. Now we discuss the 911 attack as a conspiracy, with wildly concocted accounts of explosives and jet fuel being used to break the bonds of steel and Americans. I violently disagree with many of the actions of the Bush Administration but it’s hard for me to use him as my personal boogieman. I know he has some greedy masters hiding in the shadows exploiting the good and kind people of our nation.

I cannot defend Bush’s actions on the border and his dealings with Mexico. I’ve heard lies told by Johnny Sutton (Attorney for Southern District of Texas) that have imprisoned 2 innocent Border Patrol Agents for stopping a known drug smuggler and then giving the smuggler a get out of jail free card. I’ve heard Bush defend Sutton. In my heart I know there are powerful Bush backers that are raking in huge amounts of money bringing in drugs and illegal aliens into this country. This action along with my personal experience in South Texas leads me to believe that the North American Union is more that a social group promoting trade. This is a confirmed dark side of Bush that I believe is vile and corrupt that makes me consider other possibilities. The devil is in the details ruling the dark unseen side of our country. My trust is waning.

Now we see the great economic conflagration with eyes widened by predictable outcomes that could be seen by a first year student of economics. The holes in the system would have been easy to fix as a door left open. The door was intentionally left open so in the dark of the night thieves looted our economy and blamed it on the door, neither on the thieves nor the person on the inside that left the door open. Dealing with the Devils of enslavement and soul stealing in a new world order is almost impossible for me to rationalize. Of course, who would have believed that you could use new math to sell insurance to bankers that protects them from rational human behavior backed by the full faith and good credit of the American people?

So here we are my friend, I am open to the truth and actively seeking it. I know for a fact that all types of pop myths are being circulated for the financial benefit of a few powerful people. Peak Oil is an outright lie, global warming is so farfetched I am incredulous that even children would believe it. Knowing that these stories are believed and being used to control the masses allows me to consider things I would have scoffed at only a few weeks ago.
