The New York Renascence Men

It basically amounts to economic slavery.  It’s a tax on peoples work, and people who already have money don’t need to work and they get to keep all their money.  So if we just keep taxing the people who are working and not taxing the people who already have money or inherit it then we are going to see the rich keep getting richer and the poor will never get anywhere, becuase the taxes will keep going up.

The tax is unconstitutional anyway’s because it is not aportioned, and every tax must be acording to one of the amendments, I forget which one.  It means that the taxes need to be distributed evenly amonst the people, to keep things fair.  Income tax certainly is not evenly distributed, mainly cause some people don’t have to pay it, even though everyone in our country colectivly benefits from the work each and every one of us does.

I just added these to my gamming sytem a little while ago.  Man let me tell you, I am expierencing some beautiful graphics now.  I play games like Half-Life 2, Doom 3, Oblivion, Need for Speed: carbon etc… and I’m just blown away by the graphics I see on my screen.  The only problem is that my computer has occasionally shut down on me.  The reason is I have only a 450W power supply.  The graphics card I have in there require at least 550W’s and it doesn’t help that I have 4 hard drives and other stuff in the comp.  So I ordered a new power supply, problem soon to be solved,  It’s 750W so that should be plenty nough.  I could even put one more hard drive in their if I felt like it, which I may do, you can never have enough HD space.  speaking of HD, all this HD video I’m doing is taking up a lot of space on the 400gig drive I bought just for HD video, Who saw that coming, I guess I did.

I just got a 42″ LCD HDTV by LG and wow just wow.  It has been great, I have watched a few things in HD like terminator 2 and The fifth element.  I also have an HD camcorder and I watched some stuff from it on there, namely my senior project which is coming along nicely.  I recomend everyone get a nice widescreen HD TV, it’s well worth it, they have become quite affordable not much more than a regular old TV used to cost.  I got an LG by the way and it’s super nice, it’s all black with a matching stand, the finish is shiny kind of looks like new car paint.  It’s got a big ol’ remote that is universal so it controls the cable box too.  It can control DVD and VCR players and other crap but I don’t have anything like that hooked up.  A dirty little secret is that if you hook up a PC to an HD TV with a DVD drive in it and a decent enough video card, the upscalling a PC does to a regular DVD makes them look far better than a regular old DVD player, even one that hooks up through HDMI.  There is really no need for HD content with regular DVD’s shown in this way and viewed normally from a good distance.  I could fool 9 of of 10 people that they are looking at HD and they would never know.  Although a young person like me does have sharp eyes and I can truly appriciate the image quality of the HD image.

I got a msg from someone one youtube saying they are studying my videos and the responses and comments I get.  It’s a project called “Informal learning and social development of American youth on YouTube”  it’s part of some larger research project.  Here’s the link http://digitalyouth.ischool.berkeley.edu/node/49

They said that it was interesting how people reacted and surprising, I’d have to agree with that.  They also said that I have a great impact not only on the youth but the whole population.  I hope not cause then I’m scared I might be expected to provide some service to the puplic.  I don’t know, I guess I’m not surprised, I like saying things that others wouldn’t say, I get my point accross, or I try to, to those who can read between the lines, and to those who don’t they just give a cookie cutter response which means hopefully I can get them to actually think about the subject with there critical thinking side of their brain.  There are far too many people out there who don’t utilize this enough, they ask what other people who do and copy others.

Well it’s interesting none the less, we’ll see what comes of it.  She said she might ask me for a formal interview some time, maybe not, I think I’ll have to prove my worthyness with more provocative videos first.

I got a new system that I came up with. It’s called Equaltection. It’s the next logical step in shaping our society because democracy is fastly growing obsolete. The reason is everybody who knows how to work around it’s system, is doing that. The problem is there have been no decent laws made in this country in the last like 40 years. The obvious steps towards greater and greater democracy have not been taking place. What has happened is the thinning of that ideal in order to spread it to other countries and make it work in other parts of the world. At the same time we are not strengthening it here in America. Equaltection which I thought up as a solution to this problem has two main ideas. One is the reason and meaning of it’s name. It is made up of two root words Equality and Protection. These are two very positive words in my opinion which is why I picked them. Equaltection is the protection of equal rights unconditionally and strictly. That is kind of how I like to sum it up in one sentence. Second part is that we have the technology to allow every single person in the country to cast a vote from where ever they are located right this minute. At current there are a lot of major decisions made by the congress and the house of representatives. Like ratifying laws and passing bills and what not. I believe that every vote that is made by our government should be opened up the entire voting population so we get what the majority of what the people on every vote. That part would protect us in so many ways. It would dis-allow bribing of government officials, it would balance the power between the branches of government which is a huge problem under Bush right now. The benefits to the good of the nation would be immeasurable. It would also make America open to everybody who lives here, you wouldn’t have to be a white person to be involved in shaping the country you live in. I know that change don’t come easy as they say, but I keep this idea with me always because I know it would be good for humanity.

Sadly the movie has made almost 65 million at the box office so far and it will probably end up making profit seeing as sep. 11th is coming in a few days. Oh well…
On the bright side I got a video on youtube that has like 100,000 views on it. It went as high as number 5 on the most viewed videos of the day, the day after I posted it.
So yeah check it out…

I’m calling out for a boycott on the new World Trade Center movie.
In the name of the victims family members and American Integrety.
We have already seen one propaganda movie “United 93″ that didn’t really need boycotting, it was nothing special at all.
This one is supposed to be directed by Oliver Stone, I call bullshit on that. From the Trailer I saw it was completly different from his style.
I am a fan of his earlier work, thats what my basis is for that conclusion.
There are fake news stories on TV right now that you can see promoting it, like the kind you would see on your evening news about electronic products or holiday gift ideas.
I want to encourage everyone to boycott this movie, which means DON’T SEE IT and don’t let anyone you know see it.
Spread the word.

Can’t sit
all night in the bar no mo.
Gotta think of somnethin else to do . Like watch TV, Get in bed and
read , fall asleep , wake up early .Start a whole new life . Think of
all the things i could do in the day time . Start working on the movie
, goin around in my brain. Saw Sarah last night . A spontaneaous date
, just what i like . We went to see Brick. You should see that . Low
budget but action packed and entertaining. The future belongs to the
creative….. We both loved it and ,guess what Sarah comes from that
place , San Clemente , California.
On the way home , i insisted we stop @ Ray’s for yocream .
She readily agreed . I was showin her off to Ray , a little but mostly
i wanted my yocream float. while we were in there , this guy comes in
drunk and gets too close to us . Right away , he’s smitten w/ Sarah
and wants to talk. She went outside , thinking i would follow , then i
told the guy whom i knew. He used to act in this guy Franz’ film’s .
He’s pretty handsome . I told him to go outside and talk to the girl.
To which he immediately complied. I wanted to finish eating the
pistashio yocream befor i joined her outside and him . His name is
Steve , although i’d forgotten it @ the time. This guy was fixed on
the woman so he walked w/ us down by his place on 2nd and B . He asked
us out for a beer . I told him i wasn’t drinking @ the moment. He then
asked if we wanted to smoke pop. I refused saying ” We gotta keep
goin , another time . I had mentioned , because of his connection to
Franz the mighty filmmaker, that Sarah was gonna be a mighty actress.
He said ” She has presence. ” I agree . What i’d rely like to do is
write the screenplay . It reminds me of Lost in Translation . The old
duffer meets the beautiful young girl. But in that one nothing was
going on . In my version , stuff goes on . The duffer wants the girl
to become a famous actress and she desperately wants it too . They
have a mutual atraction but both realize it can never be acted upon.
But still his loyalty is to her . And more than any other girl he
wants to see her succeed. After many exciting episodes finally she
suceeds landing a major part in a big production and that’s when they
really say good bye but you don’t know @ the end if they will ever see
eachother again . It’s very sad and everyone in the theatre cries.
Sounds simple enough right.I want you as well to make a little piece
w/ Sarah featured . Or you can be in it too but she is featured .
She’s a comedic actress , even though she’s never acted before . A
diamond in the rough. I ho0pe you like the idea .

1. JFK - Never saw it before! 3 hours long and totaly great. A must see. Very relevent to today, as related to the most recent conspiracy.
2. A Scanner Darkly - Not as great, not as great as I was hoping and expected. It was pretty heavily hyped and well I did like it a lot, but I was hoping that it take a more subversive stance.

Another thing I saw today is that Oliver Stone, the guy who made JFK is also coming out with “World Trade Center” this year. A fictional film about two firemen who get traped in the rumble. I read that little blurb about it and was kind of dissapointed. I would think Oliver would want to make something in the vein of JFK. He must have got paid off. Both 9-11 and JFK’s assassination both had commisions, not investigations, you could make a feature length documentry conspiracy theory about that alone.
