On those speed cameras in Cedar Rapids.
 
 We are told and we are expected to believe that those
infamous speed cameras in Cedar Rapids are primarily for
the good of humanity and to save lives...not to raise large
amounts of money for the city. If this is the case then the city
would probably not object to those ill gotten gains be to be
diverted to schools or charity or something other than raising 
huge amounts of money for the city. Having been through the
s curves many times, I slow my speed and I have yet to receive
a ticket. I have noticed that a driver that does slow is at once overtaken by irritated locals and whizzed around by Linn plates, lickety split
by those who do not seem to have a care in the world about receiving missives of misery. This leads Me to believe that
there may be a fair amount of selective enforcement going on. I sort of think that if locals were issued tickets at the same rate as
that of out of county plates...the villagers would storm City Hall
with pitchforks and torches in hand and throw the Frankenstein's
monster off the burning windmill. 

 My hope is that the State Legislature puts a stop to
"Big Brother" and these cameras and the money grubbing city
officials who use them as a means of onerously raising obscene amounts of cash...much of it going out of state...for who knows what?

You had better bone up on the meaning of the term Oligarchy...(government by the Few)
because You currently reside in one.
if you have been wondering why the rich get richer and the poor get poorer, wonder no longer.

If I were the Clinton Foundation I would  acquire SERVPRO right away so It could make it
like it never happened. Thus far the Clinton camp stonewalls by insisting that "there is not a shred of evidence" against either the Clinton machine or Hillary. Unfortunately they might be correct, the E mails are gone and no quid pro quo can be established. There seems to be no smoking gun that still exists, if it ever did.

What you need to understand is that "quid pro quo", like "shit" just happens. Without even so much as a "wink or nod" or any overt act by anybody, the quid pro quo just happens. The people involved know exactly what is wanted and what may be expected in return, and it just happens. Price fixing is illegal, but the price of a fast food burger is very uniform, or a can of beans at the grocery. Despite vast difference in cost or overhead from store to store...the price remains suspiciously uniform, and there never was a conspiratorial meeting of the grocers or fast food magnates. They simply know what they want and what is expected of all persons concerned, and who is the loser, Thee and Me.

Quid pro quo

Quid pro quo means an exchange of goods or services, where one transfer is contingent upon the other. English speakers often use the term to mean "a favour for a favour"; phrases with similar meaning include: "give and take", "tit for tat", and "you scratch my back, and I'll scratch yours."

Those that use human disaster and catastrophe  (earthquake, flood-drought, war and genocide) as way to control us and thus prove how superior they are to our poor selves are perhaps the greatest potential tyrants of all. The Clintons are hardly alone in using human misery as the basis for the accumulation of power and influence. There are far greater and richer persons involved in this game, persons that you have never heard of, persons who want it all and would stop at nothing to control it all. Ownership irrelevant...power and influence everything. 

Perhaps someone screwed up and evidence may yet be found...hope springs eternal.


"Say nothing of this"
"You know what I like"

It is becoming increasing clear...

that charity, charitable funds and foundations, awards are the new way of making political payoffs. This all stinks as if cold cash had been exchanged. In some ways it all stinks everywhere because it happens on the local, state and federal levels.

Remember that it is not so much the filthy money that matters...it is the control of the filthy money.

The millionaires and billionaires can only spend so much in one human lifetime. While us little guys are increasingly squeezed on every tick of the cosmic clock, the rich creeps at the top team up with the politicians and oligarchs and squeeze us all the more to retain control of our lives to keep us down and under their...

Onerous control. 

And remember this as well...
there is no satisfaction to the people who pursue the control of money. They would gladly take it all, every penny, and leave Thee and Me with nothing. They would then demand our thanks and gratitude for allowing us all to live and breathe...they see themselves as "banker" in a demonic game of Monopoly and will not be happy until they control everything. All a game to them and it is up to Thee and Me to see to it that they are never, never and never allowed to be happy.
