Japan media says Orlando shooter was brainwashed!

13 June 2016 (15:50 UTC-07 Tango 01) 24 Khordad 1395/07 Ramadan 1437/09 Jia-Wu 4714

I’ve already written that one sign that somebody has been recruited for a False Flag operation is that they disappear from family and friends before the ‘event’.

Japan’s NHK (Nippon Housou Kyoukai/Japan Broadcasting Corporation) has interviewed a 56 year old man who attends the same Florida Mosque as the alleged Orlando shooter.  That man says the alleged shooter grew up in the area and was very social until about five years ago when he suddenly left.  When the alleged shooter returned several months ago he was a changed man, avoiding talking to people who knew him.

FALSE FLAG: BOTH ‘CHRISTIAN’ PRIDE FESTIVAL ATTACKER & ‘MUSLIM’ ORLANDO SHOOTER WERE SECURITY GUARDS!

U.S.

False Flag: Both ‘christian’ Pride Festival attacker & ‘muslim’ Orlando shooter were security guards!

13 June 2016 (02:50 UTC-07 Tango 01) 24 Khordad 1395/07 Ramadan 1437/09 Jia-Wu 4714

The main stream news media, and the right wing ‘christian’ media, are  rabid about pointing out that the Orlando shooter was a ‘muslim’, but why aren’t they talking about the ‘christian’ who was arrested with a car full of ammo and potential explosives while on his way to a homosexual Pride Festival in California?

The ‘christian’ is also a classic case of somebody being recruited for a False Flag event: Young adult, disgruntled, ideological (Orlando shooter could be considered left wing since he was a registered democrat and Pride Festival attacker is being called right wing since he publicly ranted against democrats), criminal history or history of violent behavior (this also means law enforcement was aware of individual), disappears from family and friends before ‘event’.

But here’s something more specific and connected to the shooting in Florida: Both the Orlando shooter and the attempted Pride Festival attacker were security guards!

The Orlando shooter worked for evil G4S, the Pride Festival attacker worked for Universal Protection Services and Geek Squad City, he was arrested with his security badge.

Universal Protection Services is a division of Universal Services of America.  Universal Protection Services has been video-ed providing security against anticipated civil disorder in southern California. Universal Services of America’s HQ is in Santa Ana, California, the alleged homosexual Pride Festival attacker was arrested in Santa Monica, a 57 minutes drive (if traffic is good) from Santa Ana.

According to Universal Services of America’s website they provide security not only for commercial operations but for the U.S. National Park system.  In 2010, Security Systems News posted an article that hinted at a possible connection to G4S and a growing security industry trend: “Universal Protection Services was in early on the emerging trend of guard firms increasing their abilities in electronic security. As G4S…and Andrews, for example, have both lately emphasized their desires to better coordinate their guarding and electronic security operation….”

Geek Squad City is a computer repair operation run by Best Buy.  The company has been sued for using copyrighted software illegally. Geek Squad City employees have been caught on numerous occasions using customer’s computers to spy on them (especially female customers).  Unconfirmed reports say the alleged attempted Pride Festival attacker likened his job at Geek Squad City to working for the CIA.

Main stream news reports say he disappeared several days before he showed up in Santa Monica, even his parents in Indiana began calling his friends to find out where he went.  What’s interesting is how police caught him; reports say he was knocking on doors and windows in the early morning hours in a Santa Monica neighborhood, and concerned residents called police.  He said he was looking for a friend, he was officially arrested at 04:59 hours.

Another point that makes this a False Flag is that at the first official police conference the Santa Monica Police Chief straight up said the guy was going to “harm” the Pride Festival.  At the next conference she said she was mistaken, that the guy with a car full of ammo and explosives (five pounds of mixed Tannerite) was only on his way to the Pride Festival.

Operation Jupiter: G4S calls Jupiter home, right next to shooter’s non-profit!

12 June 2016 (14:51 UTC-07 Tango 01) 23 Khordad 1395/06 Ramadan 1437/08 Jia-Wu 4714

The FBI made a vague statement saying there were 911 calls which mentioned Islamic State.

The alleged shooter worked for G4S.  G4S has its U.S. HQ at Jupiter, Florida.  It’s about a 35 minute drive from a pro-Afghan non-profit known as Durand Jirga.  Durand Jirga is owned and operated by the alleged shooter’s father, established in 2010 in Port Saint Lucie.  2010-11 is the year G4S Wackenhut became G4S Secure Solutions and set up its new HQ next door in Jupiter, Florida.

Operation Jupiter is a term I came up with to refer to False Flag NBC (Nuclear, Biological, Chemical) warfare operations, after I discovered the U.S. Army’s JUPITR program while investigating the anthrax fiasco, and outbreaks of MERS and a new form of ebola.  It’s interesting that G4S has its U.S. HQ in a city called Jupiter.

False Flag: FBI admits it knew about Orlando shooter since 2013! ATF says gun purchase was legal!

12 June 2016 (13:23 UTC-07 Tango 01) 23 Khordad 1395/06 Ramadan 1437/08 Jia-Wu 4714

At press conference in Orlando, FBI reps admitted they had interviewed the alleged nightclub shooter several times since 2013!  They said it was because he was associated with other ‘terror’ suspects, and made threats against people, but for some reason they always concluded he was not a threat!

Outraged reporters at conference demanded to know why the shooter was not considered a threat, FBI rep would only comment that their investigation into the suspect had been officially closed and suspect was no longer “under surveillance”!

The ATF rep said the alleged shooter and employee of G4S legally purchased his weapons.

False Flag: Orlando shooter working for ‘christian’ G4S!

12 June 2016 (12:36 UTC-07 Tango 01) 23 Khordad 1395/06 Ramadan 1437/08 Jia-Wu 4714

Confirmed reports that the alleged shooter at the homosexual dance club in Florida was employed by the evil British empire ‘christian’ run global security corporation known as G4S, (aka Rent-A-Thug, aka Shadow CIA).

I’ve written before about G4S and its connections to not only for-profit prison torture operations, but False Flag events around the world: ‘CHRISTIAN’ G4S “SHADOW CIA” CONNECTED TO INDIAN POINT NUKE MELTDOWN?

In Tampa, British empire run child prison G4S Youth Services/Riverside Academy shutdown, 130 jobs lost!

Evil British empire private prison operator, G4S, laid off at least 74 employees across California.

G4S Government Solutions laid of 13 people at the Oakland Airport.

WFTS Florida: G4S hires employees with troubling pasts

American Thinker: “A security company contracted by the U.S. government is driving the OTMs from the Border Patrol’s Tucson Sector where they were in custody to Phoenix, sources said. The firm is called G4S and claims to be the world’s leading security solutions group with operations in more than 100 countries and 610,000 employees. G4S has more than 50,000 employees in the U.S. and its domestic headquarters is in Jupiter, Florida. Judicial Watch is filing a number of public records requests to get more information involving the arrangement between G4S and the government, specifically the transport of illegal immigrants from the Mexican border to other parts of the country.”

PR Newswire: G4S Regional Vice President selected as Vice President of the Florida Association of Security Companies

Financial Times: “In the dark recesses of the Pentagon, and at 100 US Marine bases in countries spanning Afghanistan to South Korea, G4S is using new iris and fingerprinting technologies to monitor incoming traffic.  Even as the US shrinks its military force….. ..At G4S, the world’s biggest security group, sales in America are growing at twice the rate of the rest of its business.”

U.S. Food Crisis May 2016 : “we have no other choice” Too Big to Jails join Russia in killing U.S. producers!

Incomplete list of announced United States food supply shutdowns for the month of May, 2016: Many food suppliers/distributors are consolidating operations and killing jobs due to the collapsing grocery store and restaurant industries, as well as rising costs of food production, spread of disease and extreme weather.

Alabama: In Huntsville, after 31 years Clementine’s Restaurant and Catering shutting down due to the owner becoming an “executive chef”.

Alaska: Washington based Great Pacific Seafoods shutdown all its Alaska operations then declared bankruptcy, blaming it on Russia and Too Big to Jail U.S. banks: “We believe we have no other choice given the financial performance we experienced last year…  …Without a line of credit, we did not have access to sufficient working capital to begin the season.”-company statement referring to the sanctions Russia placed against U.S. food producers, Russia recently extended those sanctions, U.S. currency war with Japan is also blamed

Arkansas: In Little Rock, after 31 years Silvek’s European Bakery shutting down by the end of the month, apparently to take care of family issues (the owners said they hope their son can restart the bakery).

California: In San Miguel, after 29 years Country Diner shutdown by a greedy landlord who refused to negotiate a new lease.  Despite Kroger’s claim that they plan to hire 14-thousand people this year, Kroger issued a shutdown WARN for their Indian Wells Ralphs grocery store, and local news reports revealed that the Rialto Ralphs and the Arcadia Ralphs are being shutdown. A spokesman for Ralphs claims that all employees have been transfered to other stores.   Maggiano’s Little Italy shutting down their Sacramento restaurant, 103 jobs gone by July! In Vernon, without warning Handmade Real Foods laid off 316 people! Amazingly, for such a large and sudden layoff, there’s been no news media reports about it. Also in Vernon, food packaging maker Pactiv issued a shutdown WARN, 107 jobs gone by July!  In Menlo Park, after 134 years (surviving The Great [deflationary] Depression and numerous recessions) pioneering Beltramo’s Wines & Spirits shutting down to be sold-off. Don’t blame the economy or the internet (they sell on ebay), the only heir to the family business says she is not ready to take over.  In Fresno, a Starbucks Coffee on Herndon and Golden State Avenues suddenly shutdown and demolished to make room for the High Speed Rail project.  In Santa Monica, restaurant Aestus shutdown.  In Torrance, after 44 years Cookin’ Stuff shutting down, the ignorant owner blames a 75% drop in sales (since 11 September 2001) on the internet!  In Stockton, after three years restaurant French 25 shutting down by June due to the greedy landlord: “We tried to negotiate a new lease. It didn’t happen.”-Bruce Davis, restaurant owner

In Modesto, after 15 years Fat Cat Music House & Lounge has been sold and will shutdown by the end of June. The new owner is a local ‘businessman’ who admits he doesn’t have any plans for the property. In Oroville, Gold Digger Apples now chapter 7 bankrupt busted. US Bank says the apple growing co-op owes them $18.5-million USD. Chapter 7 bankruptcy means the co-op’s assets will be sold to pay the debt, and quite possibly it means the death of Gold Digger Apples: “This is a devastating blow to the community, seasonably Gold Digger employs up to 800 employees. I hope there’s some real PR damage to the bank it’s hideous, it’s everything you’ve heard about big banks…”-Peg Callaway, attorney for the local apple growers

After nine years Texas based convenience store operator CST California Stations (aka CST Brands) is now dead, 537 jobs across a dozen Golden State locations gone by July (administrators blame low gas prices)! Jamba Juice issued a shutdown WARN for their Emeryville HQ, 103 jobs gone by Xmas as the juice franchise moves its HQ to Texas!  More proof you brick-n-mortar store owners can’t directly blame the internet/high-tech competition for your demise; internet seller of ‘healthy’ foods Thrive Market issued a shutdown WARN for their operations in the city of Commerce, 98 jobs gone by mid-July.

Colorado: The following restaurants reported as shutdown; Bubu Lowry, Biker Jim’s Gourmet Dogs, Big Country’s Bar-B-Que, Protein Bar Colorado Boulevard, Viand and Willie G’s Seafood & Steak. In Colorado Springs, after three years Curbside Cuisine shutting down multiple lots owned by god’s Young Men’s Christian Association and being rented to independent food trucks. YMCA administrators said Curbside Cuisine wasn’t making enough money off renting out the YMCA property so they’re being handed back to the YMCA. One food truck operator said he got three weeks notice of shutdown: “I don’t know where to move. We have been here all winter and didn’t make any money and now the weather is starting to get better and we have to move. It is not fair.”-Hayder Hassan, former U.S. Army translator now food truck operator

Idaho: In Pocatello, the Wing It chicken wing joint on Yellowstone Avenue recently shutdown and the Subway sandwich shop on Garrett Way is now dead and vacated.   A federal court has ordered Gem State taxpayers to fork over nearly $250-thousand USD to settle a case involving the state’s unconstitutional ‘ag-gag’ law.  The unconstitutional law was created by ‘elected’ state lawmakers to protect dairy farms and slaughter houses from being outed for their cruel treatment of animals.  The state livestock Brand Inspector, Justin Archer, resigned after being charged by Jerome County Sheriff’s Office with felony grand theft!   The state Department of Agriculture says all but two types of crops will lose money this year. The two money makers are sugar and barley. Snake River Sugar Company-Amalgamated Sugar expects as much as $900-million USD in revenues for 2015. But that increased revenue doesn’t translate into job creation, Mark Duffin of the Idaho Sugarbeet Growers Association says actual sugar production employment has been going down due to increased use of new technologies.  And despite years of boasting how great their farm economy was, even boasting of the Ag industry’s relationship with Mexico, the Department of Agriculture admitted that in 2015 Idaho’s farm exports crashed by 22%! Idaho dairy exports crashed and burned by 43%! It’s blamed on the ‘strong’ USD, which makes U.S. products more expensive overseas: “It was a nice ride, but it’s over.”-Laura Johnson, Idaho Department of Agriculture

The federal government is considering halting sheep grazing on public land in west-central Idaho. The U.S. Bureau of Land Management says domestic sheep spread disease. Wow, after a hundred plus years of sheep grazing they now claim sheep spread disease to other animals? I believe that applies to all us animals, all animals spread disease to each other. How do you think disease is spread, with a butter knife? The local sheep industry calls bullshit on the BLM reasoning: “There’s no firm science that says 100% that domestic sheep pass disease on the open range, or that they’re the only species that can pass the disease.”-Stan Boyd, Idaho Wool Growers Association

Illinois: In Chicago, The Berghoff Restaurant issued a shutdown WARN, 156 jobs gone by the end of June due to sale of the massive restaurant!   The Kmart Super Center in Bradley shutdown, 125 jobs lost! Sears Holdings sold the building to Meijer, unconfirmed reports say the Kmart Super Center (which has a full grocery op) was actually making money.  In Chicago, elitist diner Baffo shutdown, the owners admitted their “very expensive” eatery “is not capturing the Chicago diner as intended.”  Oak Brook based TreeHouse Foods took over ConAgra-Ralcorp and announced it will shutdown ConAgra factories in California and in Wisconsin, at least 720 jobs gone supposedly for lack of demand for snack foods!

Indiana: Food chemical company Vertellus Specialties now chapter 11 bankrupt busted and selling assets to pay the debts. Administrators blame “macroeconomic challenges facing our Agriculture and Nutrition business”.

Kentucky:  Mega grocery store owner Kroger refuses to renew the lease for the Bristol Bar and Grille, which has been located at the Kroger owned Prospect Village Shopping Center for the past ten years. Kroger administrators admitted to local news media that they found a new tenant who is willing to pay much higher rent.  In Louisville, Homemade Ice Cream & Pie Kitchen shutting down their Frankfort Avenue restaurant, apparently they’ve been asked to relocate to Dixie Highway.

Maryland: After 73 years Mars Super Markets sold-off five grocery stores to rival Weis Markets and will shutdown its remaining eight grocery stores, more than 4-hundred jobs lost: “As you all know, the company has been struggling with declining sales for several years. We have tried cutting costs everywhere we can while preserving jobs and benefits, but it has not been enough.”-Chris D’Anna, ceo

Massachusetts: Hannaford Supermarkets shutting down their Hudson grocery store because they can’t afford to renew the lease. 94 jobs gone by mid-August.

Minnesota:  In Rochester two Papa John’s pizza take outs suddenly shutdown.  The owner could not afford the latest tech upgrades and pay the new higher minimum wages, so he tried to sell the businesses  but nobody wanted to buy.

Missouri: In Saint Louis, it was revealed that restaurants Mama Josephine’s (by a buy-out offer from a business partner) and Revel Kitchen (the owners are focusing efforts on another restaurant) shutdown.  Schnuck Markets ramps up its job killing, 234 people losing their jobs at Schnuck’s brand new grocery distribution center in Kinloch! The jobs are being contracted out to cheaper labor (probably migrants/refugees) with a Connecticut based contractor. In Saint Louis, after less than a year Lilly’s Music & Social House shutting down, the owner saying “Unfortunately, the doors are closing much earlier on this dream than we had hoped. The bar and restaurant industry is undisputedly challenging….   ….Sometimes, no matter how hard you try, things just don’t work out.”

Nebraska: In Omaha, Hy-Vee shutting down its 33 years old Stockyards Plaza grocery store by June, 174 jobs supposedly being transfered to other stores! Of note, the lease on the property will remain in effect until 2018 (meaning Hy-Vee will still pay the rent on an empty store, until a new tenant can be found).

New Jersey: In Princeton, after more than 20 years the Masala Grill shutting down next week because the greedy landlord jacked up the rent.  In Closter, after 13 years the owners of Harvest Bistro and Bar suddenly announced they were shutting down, no explanation.

New York:  In Rochester, Moe’s Southwest Grill shutdown. After ten years Northeast Kingdom restaurant shutting down by the end of the month, the owners are focusing on their upstate farm.   In Buffalo, popular restaurant Martin Cooks  shutdown, the operators say they’re looking for a new location. British empire Chartwells Dining Services lost its contract with Polytechnic Institute of NYU, 39 jobs lost.  Here’s a list of additional restaurant shutdowns in the Big Apple; Thirteen Pies, Afredo’s, Asante, H. Harper Station and The Pecan.  Liehs and Steigerwald shutdown their 13 years old butcher shop in Clay. Last year Liehs and Steigerwald built new operations combining meat market, specialty grocer, deli and pub.

North Carolina:  Greensboro based gourmet grocery chain The Fresh Market shutting down 13 stores in Kansas, Missouri, Iowa and Texas! In fact all Texas Fresh Markets will shutdown. A news source estimated that 60 people work at each store, that’s 780 jobs lost within the next two months! In Cramerton, South Fork Deli shutdown without warning, due to family health problems. Also in Cramerton, Captain Jim’s Seafood and Steaks shutdown due to the owner’s death.   In Morganton, after 55 years Mimosa Lanes shutting down this weekend. The owner blames it on changing demographics and the fact that he hasn’t been able to sever beer for several years: “…it’s putting me out of business. ….we’ve lost a significant amount of business because of it.”-Grier Franklin

Ohio: In Lima, after 39 years restaurant Lickity Split shutting down due to the owner’s health problems, and the owner says nobody wants to take over the business.   In Pleasant Ridge, the Highland Remke Markets grocery store shutting down, 54 jobs gone in June. Administrators say shutting it down is the only way they can pay to remodel other better performing Remke Markets.  Across the U.S. 197 Cargill employees to become unemployed 18 months from now! It has something to do with the sale of Cargill’s sauces unit to California based Ventura Foods.  In Cincinnati, after two years happy belly On Vine shutting down their Over-the-Rhine ‘healthy foods’ location by the end of the month. It sounds like the owner is too busy with another restaurant and a “growing family”. In Cleveland, the Hard Rock Cafe shutting down in July, the movie celebrity created restaurant chain is consolidating restaurants due to the bad economy.

Oregon:  In Bear Creek, sandwich shop Quizno’s suddenly shutting down this weekend. The owner blames repair bills, employee issues, family issues and the increase in minimum wage.

Pennsylvania:  In Johnstown, after three years R.J.’s Café and Lounge shutdown, apparently without warning. Local news media say the owners called it “a business decision”.  Presbyterian/Agnostic Warren Buffett owned Kraft-Heinz moving its Lehigh Valley Grey Poupon production to Michigan, because it’s being paid half-a-million dollars by Michigan taxpayers and $17-million USD by private investors. Also, Kraft-Heinz is moving its Lehigh Valley Tassimo coffee production to Canada, claiming that the majority of Tassimo customers live in Canada. The moves will cost Pennsylvania more than 450 jobs!  France based Sodexo lost its food contract with Penn Presbyterian Medical Center, 108 jobs gone by the end of June! Despite reporting an increased demand for Ketchup, Presbyterian/Agnostic Warren Buffett eliminating 40 Kraft-Heinz jobs in Pittsburgh, they’re being contracted out by June. In Carlisle, after 56 years Rillo’s Restaurant shutdown. The owner wants to retire and sold it to an investment group, adding “We do not know their plans or who they are negotiating with for this property.”  In Richland Township, customers and employees woke to find the Ryan’s restaurant shutdown. Parent company Ovation Brands apparently exited bankruptcy, but the property owner is still pissed that they didn’t pay the rent while in bankruptcy so he kicked them out: “I was there last night, I closed, and they didn’t say a word to us.”-Trista Miller, a pregnant Ryan’s employee who worked a 13 hours shift

After surviving The Great Depression and numerous recessions Yocco’s shutdown their iconic Allentown hot dog shop: “Unfortunately, in the end we had to make a business decision and obviously it’s an emotional decision because I grew up working there and it’s our longest-operating store. I’ve lamented about this decision for many years and done many things to keep it going out of tradition.”-Gary Iacocca, owner

Tennessee: In Chattanooga, after two years Harvest Grocery suddenly announced it was shutting down. An arrogant loyal customer blamed “the community” for not “supporting” the ‘natural foods’ store. Personally, my lack of income is enough to prevent me from “supporting” such expensive ‘natural foods’ ops. The economy sucks because the ‘99%’ don’t have any cash because the ‘1%’ are sucking it up, stop blaming each other 99-percenters!  Also in Chattanooga, after more than two years Brash Coffee shutting down by the end of the month. The owners blame their employees “for moving on with their careers……..Brash Chattanooga cannot continue without these amazing people…”  Utah based ‘christian’ owned Capstone Nutrition shutting down their Spring Hill factory-warehouse, 125 jobs gone by mid-June! It’s blamed on legal problems with client MusclePharm, which supposedly hasn’t paid for $22-million USD worth of Capstone products!

Texas:  Plano based Pizza Hut (owned by Yum!) revealed its been using chemicals and antibiotics to keep its food ‘fresh’.  Pizza Hut administrators claim they will stop using butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) or butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) by the end of July, and stop using chicken processed with antibiotics by March 2017.  More and more studies are coming out saying the use of such ‘preservatives’ are actually creating ‘superbugs’ like the new E.coli that cannot be killed with anything.  In Cypress, reports say eT Craft Burgers and Beer suddenly shutdown, even their social media site is gone.   Marshall Grain shutting down their 70 years old Fort Worth store by the end of June, due to crashing sales and skyrocketing crime in the neighborhood (due to more and more people losing their jobs, the city’s own crime stat website shows that since February, 27 crimes took place in that specific neighborhood)!  In San Antonio, after almost 30 years Fatso’s Sports Garden shuts down this weekend. The retiring owner admitted their decades of success was not planned, saying “We didn’t set out to do anything. It just happened.”

Memorial Day vs Veterans Day, it’s not a “happy” day!

30 May 2016 (12:51 UTC-07 Tango 01) 10 Khordad 1395/22 Sha-ban 1437/24 Giu-Si 4714

Privately funded memorial in Pocatello to those killed (and still being killed) in Afghanistan & Iraq. 6,868 U.S. dead and counting!

While driving down Yellowstone Avenue in Pocatello, Idaho, I saw a business sign that said “Happy Memorial Day”.  Memorial Day is about people who died during wars, it is not a ‘happy’ day, it is a solemn day.

I also notice that a lot of people confuse Memorial Day with Veterans Day.  Memorial Day is about dead people, Veterans Day is about people who served in the military and are alive to talk about it.

By the way, the U.S. occupations of Afghanistan and Iraq never ended, despite several main stream news sources actually saying those ‘wars’ (Congress never legally declared war) were “technically over”!

ObamaCare Job Destruction May 2016 : “times are tough…a lot more money is going towards healthcare”

It must be noted that I started documenting these ObamaCare/healthcare related shutdowns at the beginning of 2014. In that year I posted the reports biannually (every six months). In 2015 ObamaCare cutbacks ramped up and I posted quarterly (every three months). For the past five months of 2016 there have been so many ObamaCare cutbacks that I’ve posted a report every month!

Incomplete list of healthcare related layoffs and shutdowns, May 2016.

Former White House Counsel (and current attorney at law) Boyden Gray accuses the Obama regime of willfully subsidizing specific ObamaCare insurance companies with your tax dollars! The accusation is titled Allocation Of Funds Collected Under The Affordable Care Act’s Transitional Reinsurance Program Between Treasury And Reinsurance-Eligible Issuers. Gray basically says the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is violating ObamaCare rules which say general fund money cannot be used to pay “reinsurance-eligible issuers”. The HHS has been diverting money that’s supposed to go to the Department of the Treasury to ‘reinsurance’ companies: “….by the time the books close on TRP for the 2014 and 2015 benefit years at the end of 2016, reinsurance-eligible issuers will likely have received 98% of expected payments ($15.6 billion out of an expected $16 billion), whereas Treasury will likely have received only 12% of expected payments ($495 million out of an expected $4 billion).”

“I went shoppin’ the other day…..I went to go buy beef, and I didn’t end up with four steaks, I only ended up with two steaks….times are tough for everyone. I think a lot more money is going towards healthcare, and other hidden expenses in America that people don’t realize…when times are tough you’re gonna go to pork and chicken, and us Italians go to the pasta.”-Tommy Grisafi, agricultural commodities analyst, U.S. Farm Report 30 April 2016

Ireland based generic prescription drugs maker Endo International reported huge quarterly losses and will now eliminate 740 jobs in Alabama and North Carolina!

California:  Switzerland based drugs maker Actavis eliminating 19 jobs in Corona, by July. Surgical glove maker Sempermed shutting down their Ontario location by the end of June. Without warning Visiting Nurse Association laid off 16 people in Redlands and Riverside.  In Gilroy, Saint Louise Regional Hospital revealed it began laying off employees in March! Administrators admitted they won’t know how many people will lose their jobs until they are done with the layoff process, which could go on for several weeks or even months! In Stockton, Dameron Hospital shutdown its baby delivery and child healthcare services, 70 jobs lost.  Insurance company UnitedHealth announced it will get the hell outta the Covered California ObamaCare insurance program by the end of the year, explaining that “The smaller overall market size and shorter term, higher-risk profile within this market segment continue to suggest we cannot broadly serve it on an effective and sustained basis.”

Florida:  ObamaCare insurance companies plan to jack up ObamaCare rates for Floridians by another 17.7% in 2017!  Boca Raton based Cancer Treatment Centers of America revealed it laid off 350 people across the U.S.! Administrators blame ObamaCare referring to it as “the reality of the emerging healthcare economy”. In Miramar, United Health issued a WARN, 68 jobs gone by July as the insurance company begins dropping ObamaCare plans.   In Port Richey, the American Health Institute college shutdown without warning. The owner blames the administrators for wasting money while former administrators blame the owner for wasting money! Administrators also told local news media they have evidence the owner was lying about enrollment numbers to get more federal funding. The college had only 50 med-tech students.  Child Development Services shutting down their Ocala operations, 272 jobs gone by the end of June!

Mississippi:  Merit Health Natchez laid off an undisclosed number of employees.

Administrators said ObamaCare has reduced customer traffic so much that even their new merged hospital ops are still too big!

Missouri: Maker of parts for aerospace, military and healthcare, Machine Laboratory shutting down its Chesterfield factory, 73 jobs gone by July.  In Joplin, medical battery/device maker EaglePicher Technologies laid off at least 90 people without warning: “Stabbed in the back, betrayed, no warning what-so-ever!”-unnamed former employee to local news media, who added that local police were called in to help fire the employees

Utah:  Utah based cancer doctor William E. Nibley is warning that the Obama regime is about to institute an Medicare Part B ‘experiment’ which could result in the shutdown of 75% of cancer treatment providers!

Obama regime cronies (with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services) say the ‘experiment’ is meant to see if reducing payments will actually reduce the level of care for people dealing with cancer!

Washington:  ObamaCare insurance companies plan to jack up ObamaCare rates for Washingtonians by another 13.5% in 2017!  In Bainbridge Island, after 60 years Winslow Drug shutting down. The owner blames multiple reasons, but says the final straws were when Virginia Mason announced it was shutting down its Bainbridge Island Medical Center, and reductions in insurance reimbursements caused by ObamaCare.

Dumbing Down the U.S. May 2016 : Portland bans textbooks! “We wanted to continue…realistically we can’t”

It must be noted that I started documenting these education shutdowns at the beginning of 2014. In that year I posted the reports biannually (every six months). In 2015 education cutbacks ramped up and I posted quarterly (every three months). For the past five months of 2016 there have been so many education cutbacks that I’ve posted a report every month!

Disappearing Students Syndrome (DSS): A phrase created by me to describe a phenomenon taking place across the United States, affecting both privately and publicly funded schools, from Kindergarten all the way through University levels.

Florida: Alachua County Public Schools eliminating 1-hundred non-teacher jobs! Administrators say it’s the only way they can afford to hire more behavioral teachers, as there seems to be skyrocketing instances of behavior problems with students!  God powerless to stop ‘his’ Saint Leo University system from eliminating 30 jobs due to “restructuring”. Interestingly local news reports say administrators claim they’re actually creating new jobs.  In Saint Petersburg, after 31 years Brighton Prep School shutting down due to the not-so-recovered economy preventing parents from paying the school fees.  After surviving The Great Depression and numerous recessions, Florida Book Store in Gainsville shutting down on Wednesday.

Iowa: After 95 years (surviving The Great Depression and numerous recessions) AIB College of Business shutting down. Because of the bad economy its merging with the University of Iowa. The president of the private college swears their merger with a taxpayer funded university isn’t about the bad economy, yeah right!  After 144 years (surviving The Great Depression and numerous recessions) the Walnut Community School shutting down due to massive population exodus. Local news media revealed that the population of the town of Walnut is actually 121 less than what’s publicly posted, the school itself was down to just 72 students in 2015, more than a 50% drop since 2010!

Kansas: In Wichita, at least three adult learning centers were shutdown as well as the Metro-Meridian alternative high school (school for nonconformists) due to lack of taxpayer funding.

Some department heads claimed those who were hired were hired before the layoffs began, while others said they were told to go ahead and fill ‘priority’ positions. Anybody who can do basic math can figure out that hiring more people than you layoff negates any attempt to save money!

Ohio: Cincinnati Museum Center laying off 60 people in anticipation of the renovation of Union Terminal (it’s location), which will result in the museum losing $6-million USD in yearly ticket sales for the next two years!  In Hubbard, god powerless to stop the shutdown of ‘his’ Saint Patrick School.

150+ people, per day, sacrificed on the alter of Corporate America!

29 April 2016 (15:46 UTC-07 Tango 01) 10 Ordibehesht 1395/21 Rajab 1437/23 Ren-Chen 4714

The federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration has released damning data which shows that on average 150 people per day die working for unAmerican Corporate America!  And the AFL-CIO says that statistic is low-balled!

The deaths are a combination of dying on the job (accidents or workplace violence) and slow deaths over time due to exposure to hazardous materials. The AFL-CIO has compiled the data into a report called Death on the Job: The Toll of Neglect, 2015.

The American Federation of Labor and Congress of Industrial Organizations (AFL-CIO) points out that the government data does not include incidents involving government employees!  Not only that, but each state has a different reporting system for deaths or injuries on the job, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics estimates that as many as 50% of workplace incidents are not being reported!
