You people are so stupid.

They will just keep making the packages smaller and the price will stay the same.

I believe a pound is already down to 13.5 ounces.

Re: Glenn Beck Says COFFEE Will Go To $77 A Pound!
I tried making espresso from some preground ... next time I'll do tea rather than that! Maybe my can was particularly bad, but it was so bad I cannot bring myself to try preground again.

If GB is right, it's time to buy into tropical real estate. Coffee comes from elevations about 4500 - 6500 feet, in latitudes near the equator. It needs a consistent temperature, no big summer / winter swings. Come to think of it, I would probably enjoy the same climate coffee does, so I should leave winter behind, learn Spanish and go someplace where they grow coffee!


Oh that is ironic. I'm actually a descendant of the German Dieseldorffs of Alta Verapaz Guatemala. Maybe that is where my coffee obsession comes from, it's in my blood. They still grow coffee in the same location as 120yrs ago.

 There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable.

There is another theory mentioned, which states that this has already happened.

Glenn Beck is Mormon. I believe Mormons don't drink coffee as part of their religious practice (anything with caffiene).

As for $77 a pound coffee: I hope his prediction doesn't to pass because I live on the stuff!

 Quoting: The Pie 1195503


Glenn Beck play clip of Ezra Taft Benson
[link to www.youtube.com]


Ezra Taft Benson Quotes Nikita Khrushchev RE: Our Communism
[link to www.youtube.com]


The Ten Planks of Communism
A comparison chart showing the communistic laws that WE ALREADY HAVE to support each of the ten planks.
[link to www.uhuh.com]

In the 1950s, Kruschev said that Ezra Taft Benson's grandchildren (we may not be HIS grandchildren, but it IS talking about US) would be living under communism. When Benson protested, he said, "You Americans are SO GULLIBLE! No! You won't accept communism outright [he knew that, but he had "something up his sleeve"] but we'll keep feeding you small doses of socialism, until you'll finally wake up one day and find that you ALREADY HAVE socialism! We won't have to fight you! We'll so weaken your economy [just wait until 2 January 2011, which would be only the beginning!], until you will fall like overripe fruit, right into our hands." (Quoted rom a speech that Ezra Taft Benson gave at Brigham Young University in OCTOBER 1966.)

Since then, communists have been allowed to infiltrate the American Congress (as evidenced by the laws that support the Ten Planks of Communism, and a lot of other communistic laws) and nobody knows...nobody cares...so they are allowed to chip away and chip away at your rights, until one day, you will wake up and find you have NO RIGHTS LEFT--AND, when you FINALLY want to protest and do something about it, they will already have siphoned away all of your money, so you would not be able to afford to protest. Gee! Doesn't that sound like what happened to the Jews in Germany?

But we will stop buying at $40. Thoughts?
 Quoting: anniesnow




The NIA/National Inflation Association — and Beck, who recited its statistics breathlessly — predicts that two pounds of sugar will “soon” go for $62.21, while 64 ounces of orange juice will be $45.71. An 11.5-ounce can of Folgers coffee will cost $77.71; and a single 1.55-ounce Hershey bar will run you $15.50. The group does not explain how it reached its estimates. [link to www.splcenter.org]

Just another indicator that we're headed into a full blown 1984 scenario. Coffee was a very special, and near impossible to obtain luxury, in the movie (and book).

Won't be long before the slaves are commanded to work their life away, on food that has no nutrition in it, with hundreds of chemicals assaulting their health from "food", water, and air. And now... No coffee to help you create some fake energy.

Meanwhile, the putrid pukes who have literally stolen your country out from under you (just as the founders said they would) are living in unimaginable luxury. But the good news, is that these people will be weeping and howling, and gnashing their teeth, when they realize that they gave up the REAL prize... The one that lasts forever.

Lessons from the Holocaust about Fascism
on this page:

•Lessons from the Holocaust about fascism
•the Nazis in their own words
•a small sample of accurate material about the Holocaust on the internet
•a small list of books about the Holocaust
related pages:

•The Reichstag Fire
•Prescott Bush (W's grandfather) and the Nazis
•Holocaust Denial used to discredit 9/11 skeptics
•Not See's and Nazis: Psychological Denial about 9/11 complicity
"the world has been familiar with the concept of the 'murderer at his desk.' We know that fanatical, near-pathological sadism is not necessary for millions of people to be murdered; that all that is needed is dutiful obedience to some leader."
"The great things in life are never done by normal people. They're done by crazy people."
-- Simon Wiesenthal (1908-2005)

Shocked and sickened by the evidence which he heard, Justice Musmanno who presided over the [Einsatzgruppen] trial wrote:
One reads and reads these accounts of which here we can give only a few excerpts and yet there remains the instinct to disbelieve, to question, to doubt. There is less of a mental barrier in accepting the weirdest stories of supernatural phenomena, as for instance, water running up hill and trees with roots reaching toward the sky, than in taking at face value these narratives which go beyond the frontiers of human cruelty and savagery. Only the fact that the reports from which we have quoted came from the pens of men within the accused organizations can the human mind be assured that all this actually happened. The reports and the statements of the defendants themselves verify what otherwise would be dismissed as the product of a disordered imagination.
-- Judgment of the Tribunal, p. 50
[link to www.holocaustresearchproject.org]

I would have preferred it if he'd followed his original ambition and become an architect.
-- Paula Hitler (his younger sister), during an interview with a US intelligence operative in late 1945.

The precise number of Holocaust victims is not possible to know precisely. While the Nazis kept meticulous records of their crimes, many victims were "liquidated" without the benefit of precise counting. (Many of the victims killed immediately upon arrival at extermination centers were not counted.) Nearly all credible estimates range between five and six million Jews, not counting the millions of other victims (Polish Catholics, political dissidents in Germany and occupied countries, Gypsy (Roma) people, Serbs, ehovah's witnesses, Russian non-Jews, communists, male homosexuals, etc). Several of the internet resources on this page detail the Nazi crimes against their non-Jewish victims, especially the holocaustforgotten.com website.

Whatever the precise body count, the range of uncertainty for the Jewish Holocaust is not very large and debating it is pointless - the bottom line is the culture of Eastern European Jewry was obliterated in one of the worst genocides in human history, perhaps the most technologically sophisticated mass murder ever (although World War IV will probably exceed the Holocaust in terms of bureaucratic planning and the scale of the crimes).

While the Nazi Holocaust was a disaster for the Jewish people -- and the other groups targetted by the Third Reich -- understanding these crimes is important for the entire human race, since the reality of the Holocaust shows how governmental bureaucracy, corporate structures, militarism, media propaganda, profiteering, and expansionist imperialism can combine to create genocide. The Nazi Holocaust is a critical part of human history, which should be studied similar to other large scale crimes such as:

•the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki - more than one third million dead, with residual health consequences for survivors and their children
•"conventional" firebombing of Japanese cities - hundreds of thousands of civilians burned
•the "rape of Nanking" and other war crimes by the Japanese military
•the war on Viet Nam, Cambodia and Laos (1954 - 1975) - about three million dead
•the Khmer Rouge - well over a million dead
•the massacres by the Pakistani military in "East Pakistan," now the nation of Bangladesh
•the Soviet Union's starvation of the Ukrainians at the height of Stalinism
•the "Gulag Archipelago," the prison camps across the USSR, mostly in Siberia
•the Rwandan genocide - almost a million killed
•Idi Amin's reign of terror in Uganda
•the war in eastern Congo after the Rwandan genocide - three to four million killed in war and disease
•the "slow genocide" underway in Zimbabwe (depopulation of cities where the people are most opposed to the government)
•the Biafran "civil war" in Nigeria
•the dictatorship of Equatorial Guinea (nicknamed the "Auschwitz of Africa" for the reduction on its population from hunger, disease and efforts to flee)
•the Turkish genocide of the Armenians - over a million
•the Guatemalan massacres of indigenous peoples - perhaps close to a quarter million
•the Salvadoran massacres during the 1980s "Civil War" - 75,000 or more
•ethnic cleansing in the former Yugoslavia
•war crimes in Chechnya
•Saddam Hussein's attacks on the Kurds and the Shi'a of southern Iraq
•Desert Storm (1991) - 200 to 300,000 Iraqis
•the siege of Iraq (1991 - 2003) - perhaps over a million from disease
•the US occupation of Iraq (2003 to the present) - estimates vary, but a million is probably close
•the Israeli siege of Palestine (West Bank and Gaza), which has turned their lands into a giant prison camp
•perhaps the worst contemporary crime of all is the structuring of the world economic system in the latter half of the twentieth century that diverted enormous resources toward excessive wealth accumulation even while tens of thousands of people, many of them children, died every day from preventable disease and hunger. This genocide is in many ways the worst - since the facts of it are known to anyone who chooses to be informed about the state of the world and there are no violent reprisals for learning this truth.
