American Retirees Mostly In 50's Through 70's And Others In Increasing Numbers Sell Homes And Possessions And Leave United States For Lives Of Travel Abroad With More Than 360,000 Since 2013 Now Receiving Social Security Payments In Other Countries

       Saturday, 30 August 2014, NEW YORK, NEW YORK - For readers who are retired or in any case just not tied to the United States with a physical or mental ball and chain the Ninth Amendment Editorial Board congratulates and thanks the New York Times for reminding us all that our lives remain ours alone to do with what we wish and do not belong to the military-industrial-pharmaceutical-"political consultant" corporate state relentlessly advertising unneeded garbage and unconstitutional wars which would have us all spending our lives locked up as hostages mind and body under constant threat of unlawful State surveillance on a layaway plan sofa in front of a layaway plan plasmavision receiving deceptively overpriced empty brainless programming endlessly watching CNN looping bogus horrorshows insuring our pure terror of the street right outside our door while we watch Anderson Cooper stroll around the world for lunch us left watching wide-eyed stuck deep in the grid drowning in an overwhelming excess of junk they would sell us until we are buried flailing under sheer mindless repetition which we do not want nor need but striving in our minds alone while doing absolutely nothing for the fake plastic lives we would never have buying remedies for ailments we do not even have but that can blind or kill us in an instant up until that final moment when the picture shatters from pixels to static squandering the remainder of our pathetic lives paying off debt to credit card bank and payday loan usurers for E-Z credit to pay off other E-Z credit or buy more useless junk long ago lost or forgotten rotting in a landfill and have us above all lusting for plastic cars which depreciate faster than the blink of an eye like dropping from a cliff to elevator music and for mortgages which we could not afford while constantly bombarded by the noise of hawkers and screamers and of course the biggest crooks of any in the world just Google "Bank of America" and "crime" to see who steals ten billion dollars in a heartbeat over and over and over again.
       Whoa now in the words of Hunter S. Thompson "Did we say that?. . . Well we must have meant it." For interested readers the link below is to a New York Times article in which one who is so inclined can read of over 360,000 Americans who receive their Social Security overseas, who in many cases have sold their houses and all their possessions in the United States, who spend less and live better than they ever did in the U.S., who owe nothing to anyone, who live on $150 a month, and have found ways all as detailed with links in the Times article to find transportation and places to stay for nothing or next-to-nothing as they have traveled from state-to-state and country-to-country so extensively it is beyond what they ever believed they could back when they were locked in the grid lives they thought were controlled by government and media inspired fear and terror relentlessly pounded into their brains with of course always the backdrop of invaluable advice of the U.S. State Department where not to travel (in 1963) which as we recall from our travels abroad on a few continents was infamous among travelers for its largely worthless notoriously outdated warnings of where to avoid and its uncanny ability completely to miss the spots where one most easily could be killed.

Texas GOP Idiot Governor Rick "Payback" Perry Calls For Texas Marijuana Decriminalization To Swiss Audience Amidst Doubts As To His Sincerity Or Comprehension Of What He Was Saying And/Or Was Told To Say

       Tuesday, 24 June 2014, SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS - Texas "Idiot" Governor Rick "Payback" Perry speaking to an international conference in Switzerland last week reportedly called for the decriminalization of marijuana in Texas for the first time ever.  Interested readers may make their own determination by clicking on the below link whether accompanying statements by Perry's spokeswoman reported in the article indicate if the Perry administration understands the exact meaning of "decriminalization" of pot. But then who are we at the Ninth Amendment to parse words?
       Comments following the below article seem to indicate that few if any commenters took Perry seriously either because they merely assumed he was lying, just had wanted to go on another big overseas trip with his traveling carnival paid for by Texas taxpayers, or simply remained very confused, i.e. perhaps in reflecting (if Perry is capable of reflecting) on his infamous "freeze" in the nationally televised Republican Presidential candidates' debate when he forgot which federal executive departments and/or agencies he had proposed eliminating as part of his campaign platform but has since misremembered one as having been the DEA.

FBI "Watch List" Be The First One On Your Block

     Saturday, 1 October 2011, NEW YORK, NEW YORK - The Ninth Amendment brothers and sisters here we go again reminding readers to refrain from READING FREE UNLIMITED DIGITAL NEW YORK TIMES CONTENT SIMPLY BY SETTING FREE UPDATED FIREFOX BROWSERS TO "PRIVATE BROWSING". The Ninth Amendment's posted comment below was published recently in response to a digital Times imperative piece continuing to detail the United States government's expanding systematic unilateral power grabs at the fundamentally unconstitutional expense of the rights of the people from whom its power derives.
     The fact for the day is that as readers read this Americans' right to trial specifically set forth in the Constitution is being dramatically eliminated by the whims of the prosecutorial State legal system through legislated, implicit and explicit threats which are coercive, ruin countless lives regardless of NO judicial process determining guilt or innocence, and constitute cruel and unusual punishment.
     The hidden fact for the day is that of course lacking any peep even of the proposal and passage of a Constitutional Amendment (do readers wonder why?) the elimination of these core individual Constitutional rights as well as the complete abuse of absolutely ungranted aberrant State powers run amok forebodes disaster if permitted to run to its logical conclusion.
    The State's obvious or briefly "hidden" but always progressive seizures of  ever more power which effectively purport to abolish for a variety of irrelevant and most often false reasons the freedom of the persons who fought, died, and so much more for a better country and world is very foolish indeed. It is dangerous.
     The people provisionally carefully bestowed certain specific powers and responsibilities on the State and specifically reserved others for themselves. The State's rapidly growing ungranted invasion on all fronts of these and other implicit rights violates the fundamental compact entered into by the people to establish and ordain this Nation. It is profoundly antithetical to the spirit and reality of life, liberty and the pursuit of  happiness as set forth in the Preamble to the United States Constitution.
    
Comment:

     Thank you for your continued documentation of the rapid expansion of assumed State powers which correlate inversely to the unilateral elimination of Americans' rights. As to the FBI "watch list" however the Ninth Amendment log at www.waronnothing.blogspot.com must note that this is (in the words of Yogi Berra) "deja vu all over again", i.e. the 1950's. And in the end both former FBI head J. Edgar Hoover and Senator Joseph McCarthy sure did turn out to be all-round solid guys. As for Mr. Stewart Baker, former Homeland Security official apparently turned PR representative for the State, regarding the obvious propriety of innocent Americans and others being barred from air flights, he might consider that travel unequivocally has been determined by the United States Supreme Court to be an inalienable Constitutional right.
