When President Barrack Obama criticizes former President George W. Bush for the current economic crisis, in a sense he is right to do so.  The crisis did occur during Bush’s watch, but the fundamentals of the crisis had not started with Bush.

In the early 1970s, Richard Nixon’s presidential pen fell under the watchful eye of economist Paul Volcker.  Taking Volcker’s advice, Nixon signed the nation away from its basis for money — the gold standard.

It was during the Carter presidency that the current financial crisis slowly began.   Carter appointed Volcker to head the Federal Reserve and it was Volcker and an activist Congress that together were willing to sacrifice the manufacturing strength of the country – the basis of the economy that had made the nation so powerful in the world.

Corralling George W. Bush

Volcker’s Federal Reserve, along with the US Congress and the giant banks of New York along with Wall Street, accelerated the financing of the globalist agenda of international elitists controlling international economies – controlling the means of method of production of the entire world – the madman scenario dreamed about by dictatorial tyrants since the world began.

By 1980, with Mexico’s economy already undermined by Federal Reserve meddling, the primary focus of the New York invaders turned to seizure of America’s west-Texas oil and gas assets.

The First National Bank of Midland, Texas was their primary target. Midland is located within the heart of the Permian Basin, a rich oil and gas field that contains some of the largest known reserves in the United States.  The bank was the largest independent energy bank in Texas.

Statements made so far by URS’s lawyers suggest that the loss of life and suffering endured by victims of the Minneapolis I-35W bridge collapse, as well as the tremendous cost to rebuild the bridge, would have been avoidable had engineers done their job in a professional manner.

In the August 23, 2010 “Statement of Settlement of I-35W Bridge Litigation”, URS told its investors:

“…The I-35W bridge collapse was a tragedy, which the National Transportation Safety Board concluded was caused by a design flaw, compounded by large weight increases from upgrade projects over the years, and the traffic and construction loads on the day the bridge collapsed.  URS was not involved in the design or building of the bridge, nor was it involved in any of the later construction work, including the resurfacing work being done when the bridge collapsed….The settlement amount of $52.4 million will be paid in full by the company’s insurers.”

For over a decade, the Texas Board of Professional Engineers, TBPE, has found itself subjected to pressure by international corporations to license unqualified foreign nationals as “Professional Engineers.”   The effort is intended to degrade the title “professional engineer” and thereby permit marginally trained and dangerous foreign technicians to enter the country and undermine the protections to the public that professional engineering licensure affords the citizens in all of the United States.
