Rebellion Against Time In Mexico – TDV Week In Review, Sunday April 12, 2015

By | April 12, 2015

In Mexico, time is governed by nature, not government, at least for many. We here at The Dollar Vigilante would like to pledge our support to the indigenous peoples of Oaxaca who have refused to observe government time.  
Instead, they observe the time of their ancestors. As Mexico News Daily reports,

It could be said that time has stopped in some rural areas of the state of Oaxaca, but it certainly didn’
t change last Sunday morning when most of the rest of the country advanced their clocks by one hour.

This Is The Vigilante On Ayahuasca – The Weekend Vigilante April 11th, 2015

By Jeff Berwick | April 12, 2015

Hello from Anarchapulco,

Well, it'
s been a few weeks since I dropped everything and flew to Monterrey, Mexico, to try Ayahuasca.  
I'
ve received dozens of messages asking me about the experience and I mostly wanted to take a few weeks to reflect on it before coming out with a comment on it.

As preface, and as I'
ve said before, I like to try everything once.  
I really dislike people who have never had a drink but hate alcohol.  
Or who have never had a puff of marijuana but demand that people with guns, being paid with extorted money, go out and kidnap people caught with it.

The Mask Of Government Is Falling Off Both Literally And Figuratively

By Jeff Berwick | April 10, 2015

[The following post is by TDV Editor-In-Chief, Jeff Berwick]

Larken Rose once told me that the government can'
t continue to govern (for long) once they begin completely dominating by force without the approval of at least a sizeable amount of support from the citizenry.  
Or, as he said, "
once they remove the mask"
that they are here to help us and show themselves for what they really are.

In more ways than one the US government is showing itself for what it really is.

Rep. Rosa DeLauro (Communist Party-Conn.) has been pushing the 
Support Assault Firearm Elimination and Education of our (SAFER) Streets Act.

On Tuesday, Rand Paul announced that he was running for Misleader of the Unfree World… or, as they call it, President of the US.

By Jeff Berwick | April 7, 2015

[The following post is by TDV Chief Editor, Jeff Berwick]

When people look back at the Soviet Union or Mao'
s China they can clearly see the misery that happens when a government is in charge of nearly everything.  
Even in the now fasco-communist US soyuz you can see public housing areas that are similar.  
Everything is grey, square, uncreative and devoid of any sort of color or life and the people there live mostly in misery.

Bitcoin has been adopted by Mexican citizens as a way of improving their life and conditions in 
one of the fastest growing economies on the planet. Unlike in other Latin American countries, like Argentina, where Bitcoin has been adopted mostly amid collapse of the Argentine Peso, Mexicans have been able to adopt Bitcoin under conditions of relative stability and even growth.

The Great Paradigm Shift Has Arrived

By | April 3, 2015

[The following post is by TDV Chief Editor, Jeff Berwick, and is a select portion from the March TDV Newsletter]

Many people locked into backward-looking mainstream media have no idea of the changes that are already in process. It is truly a time of extreme change but for those not paying attention everything still looks “
the same”
. Normalcy bias still keeps many totally unaware of what is happening and what is about to happen.

Americans Slowly Waking Up To Fact They Live In A Police State

By Jeff Berwick | April 2, 2015

[The following post is by TDV Chief Editor, Jeff Berwick]

One of the things that happens when you are constantly fed propaganda via the news and movies about what a great, free country you live in is that many people won'
t wake up to reality until something happens directly to them.

Take comedian Chris Rock for example.  
We'
ve poked fun at his slave mentality numerous times in the past when he has made statements like, "
The President and the First Lady are kinda like the Mom and the Dad of the country."

And recently we sighed when he made the statement that if people didn'
t like getting beat up by cops they "
shouldn'
t break the law"

If you are ever in public and overhear someone saying, "
There should be a law"

By | March 30, 2015

[The following post is by TDV Chief Editor, Jeff Berwick]

Kim Dotcom, friend of freedom and innovation, has been entangled in court drama ever since his house was raided in New Zealand.  
It should be noted that Kim Dotcom is not American, did not operate in the US and did not live in the US… but somehow the US government has deemed that he had broken one of their half-a-billion "
laws"
and sent in the valiant US military in Blackhawk helicopters to abscond with his property.  
All of this because he operated an innovative website which allowed people to share information.

[The following post is by TDV Researcher, Justin O'
Connell]

There is much literature on the financial conditions of municipal governments in the US. Are things getting so bad financially for local governments that they are considering sorting through your feces for gold?

According to scientists, fortunes are going down the drain in human feces, arguing that the 
amount of gold going down the drain would be considered commercially viable 
by traditional prospects.


The gold we found was at the level of a minimal mineral deposit,”
said Kathleen Smith, of the US Geological Survey.
