    Who the hell is this guy? He's brilliant--and funny, too!

    I like the way no one is left out, either, as when he gets on Cheney's ass...

    I'll be reading his stuff again, and thanks for the link, Melonie.

    Thanks again, Melonie. You should drop him a line or something. Let him know a bunch of strippers are really into his work. Maybe he'll give us a mention and sitr up some business.

    I especially enjoyed these comments:

    'Perhaps it is the oats talking, but he also opines "I believe that there is no longer any nobility in any major government, and that a large network of collaborators are inching us toward Orwell's worst-case scenario." Exactly! And if that is any indication of the clear thinking that oats give you, then I am now a big fan of them, too!" '

    "It's apparently okay with Ms. Ginsburg and her precious Supreme Court for the Congress and our idiotic President to ride roughshod over the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, and to monitor, regulate and spy on every detail of every American's life, but she is aghast that she and her loathsome Supreme Court ilk should have to suffer the same indignities!"

    Wow!! The mainstream with all their toys,bells, and whistles finally have figured out what us people in the club biz have known for a couple of years now. NOTE to all the financial gurus in the world;

    The REAL 1st Law of Economics; "When single and bored/unhappy married men no longer have the money to spend on chasing females of the working variety then you know things are FUBAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The law of male hormones/instinct will in the long run ALWAYS win out over something as banal,boring, and lets just face it, unimportant as mere laws of economics. This law is easily verifiable by the observation that us males repeatedly try to break all laws including those of physics and relativity in our quest for love,pleasure, and reproduction!!

    ^^^ the theory of disobeying the mere laws of economics , to the misfortune of dancers, also has the economic police ... i.e. bankruptcy and/or divorce ... which creates the absolute worst sort of club customer, the one that expects the same amount of priority and attention from his favorite dancer even though he now has just about enough money left to make the cover charge and drink minimum !!!

    i found some of the claims a little bizarre.

    tried to check something easily verifiable.
    he claims US currrency decoupled from gold and silver is unconsititutuional [nixon and fdr i believe]. never heard this claim.

    looked up the US constitution, the only mention of gold or silver was about individual states use of gold and silver and seeminly to prevent them from using their own currency or other paper method.

    No State [as opposed to federal governemnt] shall enter into any Treaty, Alliance, or Confederation; grant Letters of Marque and Reprisal; coin Money; emit Bills of Credit; make any Thing but gold and silver Coin a Tender in Payment of Debts; pass any Bill of Attainder, ex post facto Law, or Law impairing the Obligation of Contracts, or grant any Title of Nobility.

    no restrictions on federal congress.

    most of the major points are laid out at

    basically, the US Constitution says the gov't can't issue 'legal tender' that is totally unbacked by gold or silver ... no constitutional amendment was ever passed to change that original Constitutional provision ... but presidential 'emergency powers' plus creative supreme court rulings have allowed it to happen anyhow.

    FDR had decoupled the 'domestic' dollar by confiscating gold owned by US citizens and refusing to redeem dollar notes in gold. Then Richard Nixon finished the other half of the job by closing the 'Gold Window' regarding the convertibility of dollars held by foreigners into gold. From that point forward, the US dollar note is basically a piece of paper of zero worth, backed by only a vague 'promise' from the US gov't.
    \

    Of course, the gold/silver backed vs fiat money changes begun under FDR and concluded under Nixon have been perpetuated ever since due to a technical 'endless state of emergency' -->
