Government - August 2007

Operation PAPERCLIP – While other American agencies are hunting down Nazi war criminals for arrest, the U.S. intelligence community is smuggling them into America, unpunished, for their use against the Soviets. The most important of these is Reinhard Gehlen, Hitler’s master spy who had built up an intelligence network in the Soviet Union. With full U.S. blessing, he creates the "Gehlen Organization," a band of refugee Nazi spies who reactivate their networks in Russia. These include SS intelligence officers Alfred Six and Emil Augsburg (who massacred Jews in the Holocaust), Klaus Barbie (the "Butcher of Lyon"), Otto von Bolschwing (the Holocaust mastermind who worked with Eichmann) and SS Colonel Otto Skorzeny (a personal friend of Hitler’s). The Gehlen Organization supplies the U.S. with its only intelligence on the Soviet Union for the next ten years, serving as a bridge between the abolishment of the OSS and the creation of the CIA.

they have social security, universal health care, and the same benefits as we have (and I'm pretty sure college costs aren't even comparable to ours) --- yet they have lower taxes

...and I know it's not just war since the US isn't always in war, and graphs of comparative tax burdens extend back further than 2001

and help them with their economy? I am sure we could have gotten a dirt cheap labor deal from the politburo. We probably could have shaved 20 years off the cold war. Agreed?

Every individual or entity is to be taxed 50%. Everyone will be entitled to a university education, medical care, and child care.

Individuals who are found guilty of mismanaging government funds shall be put to death.

Everyone must serve in the military after high school for a year, before going to college.

Every bum, hobo, professional welfare recipients will be forced to work for a living. If not, they will be deported to the middle of the Atlantic Ocean or to the nearest body of water deep enough to swallow them.

Senior citizens will be provided care, meals, and housing.

All guilty criminals shall be put to death---so no more jails.

What else?

By email, I, as the president of a incorporated nonprofit, have offered State Social Services offices in 48 states a free website that may help their clients with information on how to set up a checking account, etc. They may or may not find the website relevant but at least they should send an acknowledgment. The name and their title appears in the subject line, it is NOT a mass emailing, and there are no attachments. Out of 48, only six responded with a thank you. Why don't they respond at all? Is there anything else I could have done to show it wasn't spam or porn?
