    Does anybody remember the reason given for the establishment of the DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY during the Carter administration?

    Anybody? Anything? Anyone? No? Didn't think so!

    Bottom line is, we've spent several hundred billion dollars in support of an agency, the reason for which very few people who read this can remember!

    Ready??
    It was very simple... and at the time, everybody thought it very appropriate.

    The Department of Energy was instituted on 8/04/1977, TO LESSEN OUR DEPENDENCE ON FOREIGN OIL.

    Hey, pretty efficient, huh???

    AND NOW IT'S 2022 -- 45 YEARS LATER -- AND THE BUDGET FOR THIS "NECESSARY" DEPARTMENT IS AT $242 BILLION A YEAR. IT HAS 16,000 FEDERAL EMPLOYEES AND APPROXIMATELY 100,000 CONTRACT EMPLOYEES; AND LOOK AT THE JOB IT HAS DONE!

    (THIS IS WHERE YOU SLAP YOUR FOREHEAD AND SAY, "WHAT WERE THEY THINKING?") 34 years ago 30% of our oil consumption was foreign imports. Today 70% of our oil consumption is foreign imports.

    Ah, yes -- good old Federal bureaucracy.

    NOW, WE HAVE TURNED OVER THE BANKING SYSTEM, HEALTH CARE, AND THE AUTO INDUSTRY TO THE SAME GOVERNMENT? What can possibly go wrong?

    Hello!! Anybody Home?

      Sounds like you could be describing the " war on poverty " too, just add a few zeros to the numbers

    Clint,
    Nope, but I do remember TX Gov Rick Perry, when out in the lead running for POTUS, screwed up trying to remember his own list of agencies he would eliminate if elected. The one he forgot was ENERGY. The same one he headed up for Trump a few years later. After the memory loss, Perry plummeted to the bottom of the polls and subsequently dropped out.
    Go figure . . .

        I did not vote voe either one but,,,,,do you really think the president has the power to raise and lower prices of gas or anything else for that matter? If so, is he president of the entire world? The entire world has high prices/
        If i remember correctly, when gas was extreamly cheap and a lot of people was out of work because it was not cost effective to drill, i remember people with a very mad tone sayin "Thanks Obama" , even tho Trump was President, they were blaming it on the last administration, even tho they knew the President has nothing to do with it, (but you already knew that). Then there is the infamous pipe line that was shut down and everybody keeps complaining about; How many gallos of oil was that supplying to the US? According to what i have heard, don't qoute me on that but, that pipe was NEVER open, and if it did, it was going to bypass the US, am i correct? if not, please tell me why and with a source etter than a utube video or a very unknown independent link that no one has heard of before but swears to be true.
        Ups and downs will always be here, how we take them is up to us, in my case i take them with a smile and make the most of it. Exemple; I sold a house last week for twice as much as what i paid for it, life is to precious to waste it paying too much attention to people that don't deserve it.
        Enjoy life, be happy

      I saw Biden speaking “live” the other day, so it can’t a spin from one side or the other. He literally said: we are getting closer to the new world order. Those words actually came out of his mouth. They are now emboldened to the point that they are not hiding ANYTHING! They are now stating their agenda to recruit more “takers”
      This November will either save or destroy what America was founded as

        I dont listen to him and pardon my ignorance but, what does the new world order mean? I hear it a lot but no one has ever told me what it really means to us mere mortals


      Open main menu SearchNew World Order (conspiracy theory)


      Article TalkThis article is about the conspiracy theory. For other uses, see New World Order.

      The New World Order (NWO) is a conspiracy theory which hypothesizes a secretly emerging totalitarian world government.[3][4][5][6][7]

      The reverse side of the Great Seal of the United States (1776). The Latin phrase "novus ordo seclorum", appearing on the reverse side of the Great Seal since 1782 and on the back of the U.S. one-dollar bill since 1935, translates to "New Order of the Ages"[1] and alludes to the beginning of an era where the United States of America is an independent nation-state; conspiracy theorists claim this is an allusion to the "New World Order."[2]

      Anti-NWO demonstration in Prague, 2010

      The common theme in conspiracy theories about a New World Order is that a secretive power elite with a globalist agenda is conspiring to eventually rule the world through an authoritarian one-world government—which will replace sovereign nation-states—and an all-encompassing propaganda whose ideology hails the establishment of the New World Order as the culmination of history's progress. Many influential historical and contemporary figures have therefore been alleged to be part of a cabal that operates through many front organizations to orchestrate significant political and financial events, ranging from causing systemic crises to pushing through controversial policies, at both national and international levels, as steps in an ongoing plot to achieve world domination.[3][4][5][6][7]

      Before the early 1990s, New World Order conspiracism was limited to two American countercultures, primarily the militantly anti-government right, and secondarily the part of fundamentalist Christianity concerned with the end-time emergence of the Antichrist.[8] Skeptics, such as Michael Barkun and Chip Berlet, observed that right-wing populist conspiracy theories about a New World Order had not only been embraced by many seekers of stigmatized knowledge but had seeped into popular culture, thereby inaugurating a period during the late 20th and early 21st centuries in the United States where people are actively preparing for apocalyptic millenarian scenarios.[4][6] Those political scientists are concerned that mass hysteria over New World Order conspiracy theories could eventually have devastating effects on American political life, ranging from escalating lone-wolf terrorism to the rise to power of authoritarian ultranationalist demagogues.[4][6][9]

        Lupe, you should google it for full info. In short, it is the idea that the most powerful countries of the world become, as one entity, leaders of the whole world (Nato is a version of this) and they want to make ALL of the rules that the whole world is to follow. It started being brought out more boldly by George H.W. Bush when he was in office (And he was a republican)
        Here's an example of what google finds :

        They are now also pushing an agenda they call "The Great Reset" and it basically is the left wanting to "reset" this nation from what the constitution says we should be, to a communist nation. They call it socialism to disguise that it's communism but that is where socialism leads to.

            My Dad (RIP) had a number of rentals. When the renters continually failed/refused to pay their rent,
            after three months we went and removed all of the exterior doors.
            Worked a charm in the day - likely we'd be arrested today.

            I did the rental thing in my mid twenties before computers. Had two duplexes. I had to use supplied references. You know how that worked out. Lots of bad tenants that I couldn't do a thing too. They had all the rights. Sold after 10 years and left with 21K for all that aggravation. Could have made the same with a CD! Today its much better. You have credit scores...criminal reports, employment etc to all easily verify. I must be stupid as I am giving it a go again at 64!

              Simple as what you just stated, Amigo!
              What IS their fucking problema???

            Very interesting statistics and perceptions….what people believe due to the frequency of seeing or hearing it from the Media!
            This should be a wakeup call if you don’t already know this….A recent poll was conducted by a national polling outfit. Names don't matter. They are all the same. This one was "YOUGOV".


            Results to these questions asked of average people on the street.

            What percentage of the country is black? Answers 41%. Actual, 12%

            What percentage is "Latino"? Answers 39%. Actual numbers 17%

            How many families make over $500,000 a year? Answers 26%. Actual figure? 1% We think a quarter of the country is rich.

            What percent of American's are vegetarians? Response? 30% Actual? 5%

            What percent of American's live in NY city? Answers? 30% Actual 3%.

            What percentage of American's are 'transgender? 22% Actual number, 1% (People believe this BS!)

            What percentage of your fellow citizens are Gay? Result? 30% Actual 3%


            So why do people have such inaccurate thoughts on these counts? THE MEDIA! The media run race, gender, wealth stories constantly. Result? You are being brainwashed by the national left with media.
            Hitler’s propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels would be proud if he had had half the success.


            Disney just went full on "gender" They will no longer welcome guests with the traditional "Welcome ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls" Why? Because 1% of the population dictates to the other 99% (that would be the vast majority) and corporate America falls for it.

            Regardless of what you think? Less than 20% of American's use "twitter" yet twitter controls 80% of public opinion, why? The media.

            Next time you are thinking American's have changed and not in a good way, remember, it's fake. It's all a lie. Most people think just like you do but the media has brainwashed Americans with constant broadcasting of "LIES"
