ActivistPost – Dave Hodges – The Importance Of October 17 – 16 October 2013

The Internet chatter which states that Obama is going to get Congress to impose a 1% transaction tax is going viral on the Internet. When this news arrives in your email box, delete this erroneous email the same as you would any other spam. The email would have you believe that while you were sleeping, the government planned to introduce a 1% transaction tax which would tax every single transaction in the United States from direct deposit to ATM withdrawals to social security payments. The bill, labeled HR 4646 did indeed propose this requirement upon all financial transactions in the United States. The fact of the matter is that this bill was proposed in 2010 and it died in committee without ever being voted on. This concept was resurrected in 2011 and it, too, died in committee without ever being voted on.

Things get exposed fast and real intent and hidden agendas seen and questioned.  These are the days of truths…. yes, multiple! No one has yet the whole picture as it is still unfolding.  What is seen though is that even the insiders are doing a great job to break down all and are undermining themselves the foundations of the structure that already is wobbly. This gets all reflected in seemingly contradictory messages and indications some perceived as good going in the right way and some perceived bad and going in the wrong way. Still nothing is wrong or right.

RT – Senate Leaders Reach Deal To Avoid Default, End Shutdown – 16 October 2013

( Lucas : Predicted that the games would go on and they would reach a temporary solution to the problem for a few weeks. It seems to be a deal. But first see than belief.  It does not take the problem of the table. The better deal is default and let the  people together make things work for them without the corporate government and their corporate representatives you think are your democratic representatives in congress and senate. We need change now and now Obama’s change but real change for the people not just a few or a few groups. Things need to be done and go differently. The time is now.)

The United States government could soon be back in business. According to a Republican member of the US Senate, lawmakers in Washington have reached an agreement that will re-open the government and save the country from default.

Sen. Kelly Ayotte (R-New Hampshire) told the Associated Press early Wednesday that leaders in her chamber reached a deal that would end a shutdown now in its second week, while also raising the nation’s debt ceiling and in turn increasing the country’s ability to borrow from international lenders.

CNBC reported soon after that Republican Party senators planned to announce an agreement at 12p.m. EDT that afternoon.
