History has shown that
most crimes are committed by a small number of repeat offenders. When these repeat
offenders are identified and apprehended crime levels drop dramatically in the areas where
they had been operating.
I believe this same reality holds true for the political corruption,
corporate malfeasance, and general immorality that is plaguing our democracy and the
American consumers. The best way for the American people to help weed out these products,
individuals, businesses, organizations, and politicians is by boycotting them.
In certain extreme situations, where lawful boycotts are inadequate to deal
with these immoral individuals and entities, it may be necessary to act outside the law to
achieve "natural justice". I am not talking about revenge, vengeance, or
vigilante justice because these are emotional responses and will probably not achieve good
results. I'm talking about calm calculating precise "punishment". A well planned
boycott can be a very effective punishment, and if done right it is perfectly legal.
These boycotts will require personal sacrifice and a great deal of
self-control, but by boycotting the products, businesses, individuals, organizations, and
politicians on my list you will improve our chances of taking our government back from
these criminals, it will save you a bunch of money, it will improve your physical and
mental health, it will help future generations of Americans find opportunities, and it
will give you a lot more free time.
Following is my list of products, businesses, individuals, organizations, and
politicians that I recommend be boycotted by everyone in America starting immediately:
Boycott These Products:
-
Professional
Sports - Don't watch on TV or attend any professional sports events, and
don't buy or wear any professional sports logo products. If you do watch a professional
sports event make sure to mute all commercials.
-
Alcohol
- Don't drink or consume anything that contains alcohol. Alcohol is addictive and
it is very bad for your liver, stomach, and brain.
-
Candy
- Avoid when possible, and I also recommend boycotting any and all products that are made
primarily from sugar including almost all candies, cookies, cakes, ice cream, and soft
drinks.
-
Caffeine
- Never consume any products that contain caffeine. Caffeine is not good for you, it
interferes with your pancreases ability to regulate you blood sugar levels, and it causes
memory loss problems.
-
MSG
- Never consume any products that contain MSG (Monosodium Glutamate). Monosodium Glutamate
is being added to potato chips, canned soups, meat products, and spice blends in copious
amounts as a flavor enhancer. This manufactured chemical is not good for you and it is not
necessary in your diet, but it is being used by these large food manufacturing
corporations to save money. MSG is a neurotoxin. Avoid any and all products that contain
MSG.
-
Chocolate
- There is caffeine and sugar in almost all chocolate. Avoid when possible, but always
moderate your consumption.
-
Gold
& Silver - Purchasing gold or silver in bulk as a hedge against a dollar
currency devaluation is acceptable and encouraged, but these metals should be avoided in
jewelry form.
-
Diamonds
- Never purchase diamonds in jewelry form or as an investment. The entire diamond market
is polluted with exploitation, murder, greed, and ignorance from start to finish. Diamonds
do have some positive industrial uses but they should be completely shunned by American
consumers.
-
Non-aspirin
Pain Medicine - Only take 100% pure aspirin pain medicines because the other
over-the-counter and prescription pain medications, ones that contain acetaminophen or
ibuprofen, may cause stomach bleeding, liver failure, or kidney damage.
-
Cigarettes,
Cigars, Other Tobacco Products, and Grass - Avoid when possible. Smoking
anything is very bad for your health and it is bad for others around you.
-
Weight
Loss Drugs - Skip these highly questionable drugs and go straight to the
treadmill. A vegan "living foods" diet combined with lots of exercise are the
keys to weight loss and good health.
-
Sex
Drugs - Sorry, but it's best to skip these highly questionable sex enhancing
drugs and try to stimulate your sexual capabilities and satisfaction through diet and
exercise.
-
Antidepressant
Drugs - These drugs work on the brain to relieve depression in the same way
alcohol works on the brain to relieve social anxiety, and with equally negative
side-effects. Studies have shown that exercise and sunlight work just as well as
prescription drugs on the symptoms of depression, and with very positive side-effects. If
you get depressed try taking long quiet walks in the park.
-
Vitamin
Supplements - If you eat a somewhat balanced diet vitamin pills are not
necessary and could even be harmful. The fat soluble vitamins, A, D, E, and K, are stored
in the liver and can quickly build up to toxic levels. Recent research has shown a link
between the use of vitamin supplements and an increase risk of prostate cancer. Instead of
taking vitamin supplements try eating more fresh fruits and vegetables.
-
Soft
Drinks - Most soft drinks contain caffeine, too much sugar, or questionable
fake sugars, and not enough of the good stuff our bodies need. I recommend only drinking
carbon filtered tap water and 100% juice drinks, fresh squeezed is best.
-
Tap
Water - Pure water is the most healthful drink you can consume, however,
almost all municipal tap water contains chlorine and carcinogenic chlorine by-products
(trihalomethanes). Chlorine is a poison, but it is a necessary evil that keeps our water
safe from harmful bacteria and viruses while it is being transported from the water
treatment plants to our taps. However, once water comes out of the tap the chlorine is no
longer needed and is in fact harmful to humans. The best solution is to remove the
chlorine, trihalomethanes, and any other harmful chemicals (herbicides, pesticides, etc.)
that may have gotten into the water during its trip using a simple low cost activated
carbon water filtration device (Price $15 to $150), or drink bottled water.
-
Dairy
Products - Milk, cheese, ice cream, butter, sour cream, and yogurt are all
made from cow's milk and have been linked to obesity, diabetes, cancers, atherosclerosis,
osteoporosis, constipation, asthma, eczema, canker sores, peptic ulcers, colic, colitis,
crohn's disease, respiratory illnesses, rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, beheta's disease,
multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, SIDS, and the list could go on and on. The evil
highly polluting U.S. dairy industry generates well over $50 billion dollars in business
each year and they spend hundreds of millions of dollars each year trying to sell us their
products. All cow's milk has hormones, allergens, fat, cholesterol, and often has
measurable amounts of herbicides, pesticides, dioxins, antibiotics, blood, pus, feces,
bacteria, and viruses. And lets not forget the added growth drug Posilac (rbGH) that was
banned in Canada. Please limit, and if possible stop, consuming any and all dairy
products.
-
Seafood
- The oceans of the world are being over fished at an alarming rate. It is estimated that
over 90% of the large ocean fish have already been caught and within twenty years the
remaining 10% will be gone. Unlike cows, chickens, pigs, and farm raised fish the ocean
fish of the earth cannot reproduce at a rate fast enough to keep up with the "hunting
and gathering" of human consumption. Please, stop eating all ocean caught seafood.
-
Lottery
Games - First, you have a better chance of getting struck by lightning then
winning the big lottery. Second, the lottery was sold to voters in Texas by telling us the
money would be used for education, but our governor at that time was George W. Bush and he
gave those budget surpluses away to property owners through a couple of big tax cuts.
Then, when those budget surpluses turned into deficits you can probably guess the first
budget item on the chopping block, education. Please, don't play the lottery.
-
Television
- Watching TV should be avoided as much as possible. However, because some of the shows
and movies on TV are either educational or enjoyable to watch I recommend muting all
commercials, strictly controlling what your children watch, and moderate your personal
viewing habits. I find that the three C-SPAN channels and the Turner Classic Movies
channel are all highly education and enjoyable to watch, and all four are commercial free.
-
Military
Service - As long as the corrupt Republican chickenhawks are in power
America's military personnel will continue to be used as low value pawns and squandered in
some totally unnecessary conflict that was dreamed up by the Republican's inheritance rich
sugar daddies. And then, to add insult to injury, while our service men are busy fighting
and dying in some third world country based on a lie the Republicans in Congress will be
busy back at home cutting taxes for the rich, cutting veteran's benefits, and
disrespecting our dead soldiers by blocking the media from documenting their sacrifice.
Just say "NO".
-
Organized
Religion - One of our most important founding fathers, Thomas Paine, had this
to say about organized religion: "All national institutions of churches, whether
Jewish, Christian, or Turkish appear to me no other than human inventions set up to
terrify and enslave mankind and monopolize power and profit." Don't give any
money to people or organizations that try to tell you what God thinks, or what God expects
from you.
-
Israeli Made Products
- Israel is a Jewish state that treats its non-Jewish
(Gentiles) neighbors like subhuman's. Judaism is a racist
religion that believes people who have Jewish heritage
should rule the earth. Jews were responsible for the
Bolshevik Revolution in Russia that resulted in the rise of
communism. Jews were responsible for the hyperinflation
economic crisis in Germany in the 1920's. The Neocon Jewish
lobby is largely responsible for the currently war in Iraq.
Jews, as a race, have shown themselves to be nepotistic,
monopolistic, and cruel racist, therefore, their products
and businesses should be shunned by American consumers.

Boycott These Democrats:
In my opinion there is only one
type of politician worse than the current crop of corrupt Republican politicians and that
is a Democrat who votes with the Republicans on their corrupt fascist legislation. We
should boycott the following Benedict Arnold Democrats because they voted for big tax cuts
for the very rich at a time of historically large budget deficits:

David Scott (D - GA)

Chet Edwards (D - TX)

This boycott list is very long and includes some very popular products and
companies, therefore, 100% compliance is not necessary or expected. However, this list
should inspire you to consume less of everything (especially dairy, sugar, and
caffeine), be brand conscious, be prepared for hard-times, and be more
self-sufficient.
Start by only eating at the small mom & pop restaurants, and avoid the
big chain restaurants. Buy from the small and independently owned shops and stores, and
avoid the big chain stores. Buy fresh produce, meats, and fabrics and learn how to make
things for yourself. Try growing some of your own food. Cut back on your use of all forms
of energy. Watch less TV and spend more time exercising, working outdoors, and reading
books. Eat less sugar, salt, dairy, caffeine, and MSG, and eat more fresh fruits and
vegetables. Spend more time thinking about how to spend and invest your dollars in light
of all this new information.
The Robber Baron's plan not only involves robbing our government but also
includes a variety of other ruthless, immoral, greedy, and corrupt actions, policies, and
legislation. They are going to manipulate the value of the dollar, cause hyperinflation,
cause rapid asset appreciation and deprecation, manipulate the stock market, manipulate
personal incomes, increase their use of foreign workers, outsource more of their
production to countries outside the U.S., and further shift the tax burden downwards.
The Robber Barons what us to live in a state of fear, ignorance, prejudice,
bigotry, and helplessness. They want us to work longer hours for less pay. They want us to
continue consuming unhealthy diets and buying their giant corporation's overpriced
products. They want us to fear the "terrorist" when the reality is they are the
real terrorist threat to the American people and our government. We shouldn't fear them,
we should hate them because anger is a much more productive emotion than
fear.
The only realistic solution to saving our democracy is to fight these Robber
Barons, and we can start fighting them by boycotting all the businesses, individuals,
products, and politicians on this list. After that we can begin committing acts of civil
disobedience and then increase our level of aggression until we win.
If it is true that "Hell is the impossibility of reason"
then we must commit ourselves to do whatever it takes to restore our government to our
founder's vision of a people's government run by moral leaders who use their common sense
(reason) to legislate for the many, otherwise, life in America could soon become a hellish
place for the vast majority of us.
Please feel free to copy and distribute any part of this list, webpage, and
links.
