At another point during the day, I turned over my television remote and I noticed that it also had “Made In China” engraved on it. It is still Labor Day as I write this article, and so I think that it is quite appropriate to write about our transition from an industrial economy to a paper economy today. Since the year 2000, the United States has lost five million manufacturing jobs even though our population has grown substantially since that time.

Manufacturing in America is in a state of stunning decline, our economic infrastructure is being absolutely gutted, and our formerly great manufacturing cities are in an advanced state of decay. We consume far more wealth than we produce, and the only way that we are able to do this is by taking on massive amounts of debt. But is our debt-based paper economy sustainable in the long run?

Back in 1960, 24 percent of all American workers worked in manufacturing. Today, that number has shriveled all the way down to just 8 percent. No wonder the middle class is shrinking so rapidly. There aren’t too many cooks, waiters or retail salespersons that can support a middle class family.

Since the turn of the century, we have lost more than 50,000 manufacturing facilities. Meanwhile, tens of thousands of gleaming new factories have been erected in places like China. Does anyone else see something wrong with this picture? At this point, the total number of government employees in the United States exceeds the total number of manufacturing employees by almost 10 million…

During this election season, you will hear many of our politicians talk about how good “free trade” is for the global economy. But that is only true if the trade is balanced. Unfortunately, we have been running a yearly trade deficit of between 400 billion dollars and 600 billion dollars for many years… When you have got about half a trillion dollars more going out than you have coming in year after year that has severe consequences.

He said Britain would not turn its back on Europe as it seized the "historic and positive moment for our nation". The Brexit Secretary, flanked by Boris Johnson and Liam Fox, spoke of his plans to get a "unique deal" during negotiations with Brussels. Outlining his 300-strong department's plans Mr Davis said the Government will build a national consensus for EU talks, put Britain's interests first, minimise uncertainty and leave the EU.

He said: "Our instructions from the British people are clear, Britain is leaving the EU. The mandate for that course is overwhelming." Making his first appearance at the despatch box since 2008, he said: "We can get the right trade policy, we can create a more dynamic economy." We want to make sure our regulatory environment helps rather than hinders workers, controls numbers and encourages the brightest and best to come to this country. We do not see Brexit as ending our relationship with Europe, it's about starting a new one."

New documents leaked to the media have found two other would-be attackers – Algerian Adel Haddadi and Pakistani Muhammad Usman – also planned to unleash jihad on the French capital. The pair were given fake Syrian passports and smuggled into Europe using the same route refugees have been using to escape the war-torn country.

The jihadis were only stopped when Greek authorities found them using fake passports – with the delay meaning they could not take part in the deadly Paris attack. Another shocking revelation from the 90,000 pages of intelligence found one suspected terrorist linked to the Paris attacks, Abid Tabaouni, remained at large for eight months before being arrested by authorities.

The new documents unveiled the true extent to which the evil cult use social media platforms such as Viber, Telegram and WhatsApp to co-ordinate their attacks. One app even let the terrorists pick their own phone number, allowing them to throw any intelligence services off their trail. The co-ordinators of the attacks were careful not to tell jihadis too much information at each step, only giving operatives as much money and information at each step as necessary.

He made the remarks just 24 hours before Barack Obama insisted the pair were negotiating 'around the clock' to stop the violence in Syria. 'Our relations are, regretfully, in a pretty frozen state, and I think it's not our fault,' Putin said on Saturday.

'We expected that this openness will have a similar reaction from our partners. But … they've gazed into the magic crystal of national interests and understood it their way — now that the Soviet Union has fallen apart, we need to finish Russia off,' he added. 'If this logic will persist, I don't expect any thawing. But if our partners will agree with a different logic, one of considering mutual interests, of respecting each other's interests, then our relations will change, too.'

Putin went on to say that Russia is not to blame for the annexation of the Crimea or Eastern Ukraine. He also hinted that the US backed the revolution that led to the diplomatic upheaval in 2014. 'The Ukrainian crisis wasn't our fault. It wasn't us who supported the anti-constitutional coup in Ukraine,' he said.

Pointing to recent crashes of two F/A-18 Hornet jetfighters during training exercises that left one Marine pilot dead, a Fox News TV report stated on Saturday that such accidents are becoming more frequent amid growing concerns that “insufficient training and an aging fleet hobbled by a shortage of spare parts” are contributing factors.

“They are going up partly because they are not getting the training they should get. They’re going up because maintenance is harder and harder to accomplish. They are going up because the airplanes are getting older and older,” said Republican Congressman from Texas Mac Thornberry, who chairs the House Armed Services Committee, in an interview with Fox News.

The Navy, like the Marines, is having a difficult time finding available jets for its pilots to fly and train in - amid more than $100 billion in defense budget cuts since 2009, a steady tempo of combat missions, and a delay in the delivery of the F-18's replacement, the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter. Currently, the report added, of the Marines’ 273 F-18 aircraft, only 91 are able to fly with 88 of them waiting for spare parts.

“I’m here to tell you that vaccines can and do cause autism,” he says in the video uploaded Tuesday. LaHood and his wife tell the story of how their infant daughter Maya suffered an auto-immune reaction shortly after receiving her scheduled immunizations while at the hospital. “It was really bad. It was bad to where I had to tie her down to sleep because she would scratch herself and start bleeding,” Davida LaHood said describing her daughter’s eczema-like symptoms.

The mother and father also recounted their son Michael’s physical and mental changes shortly after getting vaccinated. “He was a very alert baby. He was very talkative. He was very happy. He would smile a lot. He would love for you to look him in the eyes,” she described. “It was like 18 months, it was after a round of vaccines and he just started doing this [winces]. Like a tick,” LaHood described, saying they at first thought it was cute.

“But fairly quickly I think both of us came to the conclusion that that’s not cute anymore,” LaHood said, with Davida adding she was concerned after Michael stopped making eye contact. “There’s a big change right here,” Davida says. “He stopped completely looking at you. He stopped responding to his name completely. And then we started just seeing a lot of other – just motor skills not developing the way they had been.”

LaHood says at the time he spoke to a friend who worked as a scientist for the Merck pharmaceutical company, who told him he never vaccinated any of his four children. “I seek truth. I’m a prosecutor for a living. So I look for truth. I have to follow evidence wherever it leads me. I don’t have a bias. So I took that same approach in looking at this issue,” LaHood says. “At the core of my spirit I hate deception,” he says. “And what has been promulgated on us as a community – even by our own government – is deceptive. Whether it’s intentional, or not the result is the same.”

How? Well, vaccine makers sometimes use animal byproducts in vaccines, products such as chicken egg protein or gelatine that comes from bones. And if those vaccine makers are using animals that come out of factory farms, chances are they are fed GMO and glyphosate laced feed. If so, they would pick up glyphosate into their system just as we humans do.

Therefore, egg protein and gelatine made from these animals may also contain glyphosate, which in turn would then contaminate the vaccines that use these products. Finally, people, or animals, vaccinated with these products would have glyphosate directly injected into them, and will in due course have glyphosate initiating a cascade of diseases.

Anthony Samsel was not passing opinion on this. Rather, he collected vast samples of these popular vaccines and got them tested by multiple labs in USA for presence of glyphosate, and found, as he suspected, the vaccines to be largely contaminated by it. He has already alerted his Senator, as well as various government and international organizations such as CDC, FDA and WHO.

Mrs Merkel's CDU could muster only a pitiful 19.2 per cent of the vote compared to the victorious AfD's 21 per cent, leading to growing scepticism about Merkel's ability to cling onto power in Germany after her party also lost three elections to the AfD in March.

After the AfD win, the party leader Frauke Petry said: "We have made history here today. This is a slap in the face for Merkel - not only in Berlin but also in her home state. The voters made a clear statement against Merkel's disastrous immigration policies. This put her in her place."

Mrs Merkel's migrant policy is solely to blame for her staggering defeat, according to the regional AfD leader, Leif-Erik Holm. He said: "The only issue voters care about right now is (Merkel's) irresponsible migrant policies. It's not what people want. I think this is the beginning of the end of Merkel."

The news comes as it was revealed the bank's profits dropped by 98 per cent in July and its share price reached lows not seen since before 2002. Now Dominic Konstam, Deutsche Bank's global head of interest rates research, has issued a report that warned a "collapse in risk assets" could cause "panic".

And he said the bank is awaiting on decisions from the ECB to bail out Italy and Japan's proposed "helicopter money" investment similar to that of quantitative easing in order to fully understand what happens next. Mr Konstam said: "The status quo could continue for several years yet – if nothing 'breaks' in the system."

He said: "If the current weak economic environment persists, we will need to be yet more ambitious in the timing and intensity of our restructuring." The bank has been trying to sell off a stake in China’s Huaxia Bank as it continues to ditch assets.

In essence, the CDC is creating a police healthcare state, something that was tried in the 1980s when Representative Claude Pepper introduced three infamous bills that got me involved in organizing the country to defeat them, which we did, only now to be facing another round of excessive medical and federal agency over-reach, in my opinion.

What the CDC proposes defies the US Constitution and states Constitutional rights with absolutely NO appeal process. Where is the US Congress, who has oversight of the CDC? However, what should we expect from a do-nothing Congress?

If this oppressive totalitarian-like proposed rule giving CDC police powers becomes law, kiss your kids goodbye; kiss what you thought you had in life goodbye — your body, which will not belong to you any longer but to the USA via CDC ‘edict’; and expect to be interred in US FEMA camps — something the shadow government and others apparently have been planning for some time. Folks, wake up; it’s later than you think!

Instead, the dead heaps signaled the killer was less mysterious, but no less devastating. The pattern matched acute pesticide poisoning. By one estimate, at a single apiary — Flowertown Bee Farm and Supply, in Summerville — 46 hives died on the spot, totaling about 2.5 million bees.

A Clemson University scientist collected soil samples from Flowertown on Tuesday, according to WCBD-TV, to further investigate the cause of death. But to the bee farmers, the reason is already clear. Their bees had been poisoned by Dorchester’s own insecticide efforts, casualties in the war on disease-carrying mosquitoes.

In parts of South Carolina, trucks trailing pesticide clouds are not an unusual sight, thanks to a mosquito-control program that also includes destroying larvae. Dorchester decided to try something different Sunday. It marked a departure from Dorchester County’s usual ground-based efforts. For the first time, an airplane dispensed Naled in a fine mist, raining insect death from above between 6:30 am and 8:30 am Sunday. The county says it provided plenty of warning, spreading word about the pesticide plane via a newspaper announcement Friday and a Facebook post Saturday.

Local beekeepers felt differently. The county acknowledged the bee deaths Tuesday. “Dorchester County is aware that some beekeepers in the area that was sprayed on Sunday lost their beehives,” Jason Ward, county administrator, said in a news release. He added, according to the Charleston Post and Courier, “I am not pleased that so many bees were killed.”

‘Europe, the source of the Enlightenment, the birthplace of modern science, is in crisis,’ writes the Nobel Prize-winning economist Joseph Stiglitz, in the very first sentence of his new book The Euro And Its Threat To The Future Of Europe. The euro, he argues, was a mistake from the beginning, and the ‘social and political consequences’ of the European elite’s folly ‘have been disastrous’.

Founded amid intense utopian excitement, it has plunged much of southern Europe into the deepest economic misery in living memory, throwing millions on to the scrapheap of unemployment and handing far-Right extremists the perfect gift. That may sound melodramatic, but Professor Stiglitz’s expertise should not be blithely brushed aside. Currently professor of economics at Columbia University in New York, he was formerly the chief economist of the World Bank and chairman of the US President’s Council of Economic Advisers.

So when Professor Stiglitz warns that the EU’s current path will lead to catastrophe, the Continent’s political elite really ought to listen. Indeed, last month he told one interviewer that the most likely future for the eurozone is a ‘politically cataclysmic event’ that would tip it towards outright financial Armageddon.

In particular, he pointed to this autumn’s Italian referendum on constitutional change — which seeks to reorganise how Italy is governed — on which Mr Renzi has staked his entire political future. If the vote goes against the Italian prime minister, Professor Stiglitz believes the ensuing loss of confidence could shatter Italy’s fragile financial system, which in turn could knock over a series of economic dominoes across the continent, and so bring a brutal end to the Euro experiment.
