General Electric is one of America's most storied companies. Founded in 1892, the global conglomerate has over 300,000 employees and business units that are involved with every aspect of industry, from finance to light bulbs.
In the process, however, GE has become emblematic of crony capitalism with its deep and intricate ties to the Democrat Party and the Obama administration in particular.
At Daily Finance, Peter Cohan describes how GE's recently announced aviation deal in China endangers America's economic and national security interests. How GE Is Arming China to Compete With Boeing -- and America
General Electric (GE) plans to sell its aircraft electronics to Chinese companies, and if you don't have a problem with that, maybe you should. After all, China just flight-tested a prototype stealth fighter, it continues to build up its military -- and we can only hope it's not planning to expand its territory in ways that threaten the U.S.
But if China does decide to get aggressive with the U.S., GE will have provided it with the aircraft technology it will be using.
According to The New York Times, GE is signing a deal to sell avionics technology -- electronics that control an aircraft's basic in-flight operations -- to Commercial Aircraft Corp. of China (CACC), which aspires to build commercial and military aircraft. GE will do this through a joint venture with a Chinese company, Aviation Industry Corp. of China (Avic). Avic makes avionics for CACC and for China's military -- including its stealth fighter. Cohan, a Babson College professor, believes "GE [is] betraying its customers and its country" because China represents a $400 billion market for its aircraft products by 2030.
Cohan believes that Crony Capitalists like GE's senior management are "making the decisions that will determine America's fate."
This is a discomfiting thought indeed -- and General Electric's shareholders need to make their voices heard before this deal is a fait accompli.
Infomercials for Socialized Medicine
This isn't the first time that GE has appeared to have a dramatic conflict with the best interests of the American people. Consider its actions related to socialized medicine -- better known as Obamacare -- and its advocacy efforts of same.
Remember that GE Capital -- another unit of General Electric -- received approximately $140 billion in taxpayer funds in 2008 as part of the initial financial bailout.
Which makes it curious that the Obama administration earmarked another six billion in GE funds (or are they taxpayer funds?) to a new GE firm called Healthymagination.
Healthymagination's advisers include Tom Daschle, Barack Obama's initial nominee for secretary of Health and Human Services.
At a recent conference, GE CEO Jeffrey Immelt claimed that America's economic crisis was not simply an economic crisis. It was instead a "reset", where companies that intersect with government will "prosper... and people who don't understand that will get left behind."
Immelt, a member of Mr. Obama's economic recovery advisory board, went on to say that, "The intersection of government and business will be changed, maybe for a generation."
The business case behind Healthymagination hinged on nationalization of the health care industry. Computerization of health care records is not only a vaunted component of the Obama stimulus package, it is also a $75 to $100 billion business over the next ten years.
Coincidentally, Healthymagination just happens to be building a health care record management system.
Oh, and did I mention NBC? It was involved, too. In 2009 Health Imaging reported that the GE-owned media conglomerate -- something out of the movie Rollerball -- would also do its part.
NBC Universal and NBC News would air more than 5,000 televised reports annually on health and wellness.
MSNBC would launch a new, daily program dedicated solely to health information... in addition to medical issues it would also examine health policy.
The plan was simple: the media would broadcast pro-Obamacare propaganda; government would enact policy "by popular demand"; and the chosen corporation would profit at taxpayer expense.
As Andrew Wilkow observed, "Healthymagination states its target dates for the completion of its various initiatives as 2015, well into a second Obama term. This means GE will have a deep financial interest in Mr. Obama's re-election; a fact that will no doubt be reflected in its media divisions. It will certainly be interesting to see if the left-wing watchdogs howl, or if they will conclude this is an acceptable level of collusion between the White House and a multinational conglomerate."
The sale of NBC to Comcast may have thwarted those plans, but the plans themselves were downright disturbing.
It's up to shareholders to call GE CEO Jeff Immelt on the carpet
What GE appears to be engaging in is not capitalism: it is an unholy alliance of governmental and corporate interests that thwarts the national security and economic interests of the American people to benefit a chosen few senior executives and politicians.
GE's shareholders must rebel against these un-American -- and, frankly, anti-American -- activities. GE is a national institution -- but its recent activities smack of pure, unmitigated evil.

The United States should not be reducing its Nuclear arsenal in the face of China's military prowess increase,...and Russia's continued secrecy in the form of access/verification of existing nuke arsenal and fabrication facilties.
That would seem OBVIOUS to me also.
But the enemy is inside the wire, in fact, the enemy is running the nation at this moment.

I spent a morning on ancestry.com today and found ancestors that I had no idea about, who fought in the Revolutionary War, the War of 1812, and the Civil War, on the Confederate side. I have copies of Revolutionary War, hand written discharge papers for a couple of my ancestors now. Photos, Census documents, etc. Very cool stuff.Some were 'Morgan's Raiders' in the Civil War.
I had no idea. It was very cool, for me, to find that out.
Awesome!
Watching movies and historic programs will magnify the discoveries.
and....
Git yur head down Reb!

That is very kewl information!
It is important to know what your family history is.
Not to mention interesting.

I cannot tell you how exciting it was for me to find that stuff out.
I did it all in one morning, for free. But, it's so cool, I'm going to pay the fee after the 2 week free trial just to keep digging and see what else I'll find.

Back in 92,...went to the National Archives to look up Family after appointments with Navy Dept on USS Isherwood DD-520.
Back then,....it was micro fiche readers and card catalogue.
some indexing books.
Was amazed to find State muster in records with regiment companys for 13 individuals.
My local University had the Governments records for the Civil war in the series _
Official Records of the War of the Rebellion.
Indexed,...you could follow a units movements and develop a picture of what participation they experienced.
Lists out the Confederate state units they were against in the field.
Its a resource which works for both sides as history research goes.
Dedicated websites for units exist on the net,....and in some cases,...re enactment groups.

One of my ancestors, for some reason, had to write out in his own hand, his experiences, duties, whereabouts in the Revolutionary War when he filed for a pension. He had to have 3 people who either served with him or friends who could vouch for his service. It's a very interesting read.
How he got separated from his command and fell in with another unit. Battles he fought in, where at, when he was on guard duty, etc.
Extremely interesting read. He got grazed by a round, in the neck, but there were no doctors to help, so he wrapped up the wound as best he could and went about his business.
Has was given a discharge by a Major, after his Captain and most of his unit were killed in a battle, but he didn't know why. He knew the war wasn't over, so he ignored it.
Crazy stuff. He actually had 2 hand written discharges, and ignored the first. The 2nd came after the war was over. I now have copies of his pension request with his hand written accounts, and both discharges.

From what I understand, that was SOP for trying to get a military pension in the US up until WW2.
They are always pretty interesting reads.
WW1 and the so called "bonus marchers" of the 30's convinced the WAR department that they better have a system in place to take care of returning vets of WW2 or face REAL trouble.
That's where the VA and benefits came from. Not from the goodness of the gooberment.
They saw what happened after WW1, and they were afraid of worse after WW2 finally ended.

Its awesome to touch history in a manner more exact than removed accounts on a typeset book.
Having an item,...like a Belt buckel,sword,cap etc....thats almost haunting : )
There's some great Then and now photo series on the net.
Most are WW-2...but there are series for several of Americas wars at home.
In some cases,....the actual buildings and streets have changed little save for new paint and rebuilt property.
I visited Yorktown on my way down to Norfolk Naval Base.
I was wow'd,
There is Canon, mortars,.....burms,...houses,....from when Cornwallis surrendered.
down the road inside parkway is a civil war cemetary....low brick wall.
2 wars ran over that ground.......Sacred Ground.

How many soldiers in America's wars went in with their trained unit
and went out by themself,..or in a group knowing roughlythe last time they were together,...it was not a positive event.
To be injured and alone with strangers possibly.
To not see your friends for maybe a long time.
Today soldiers can keep up on each other,...yet in the past,...how many never saw their friends again after the last action.
There are a great many stories of hero's and valor by many men we shall never know of.
Some Hobo,...was a soldier before,.....life did not go well for him back home.
#45. To: We The People (#42)
In that case my friend I'm glad I had a chance to mention it.
Guess who two of the most famous US Army people who were involved in driving the "bonus marchers" from Washington DC? (These men were WW1 vets who had been promised small payments for their time in service, and which the CONgress then ignored. This was in the depth of the great depression, and these men and their families were starving).
Eisenhower and MacArthur were responsible for driving them from DC.

All very true.
When I was a kid you were NEVER allowed to give ANY adult grief.
My father explained it to me this way, you do not know any man's story. ALL men have a story. YOU as a child do not have the right to question anything about these men. THEY have lived what you cannot even understand.
IF you screwed with any adult, you didn't want to "talk" to my old man when he got home from work.

My Dads Father was not around during WW-2,
His mother had passed away when he was young.
He had 2 older brothers,.....and when Freddy was 16,...Fred snuck into the navy in 1943.
My dad will talk when he wants to,...no amount of prying works.
After my research into USS Isherwood and recovering Family records in DC,...he finally opened up.
I came home drunk one night [16/17]....banging on the door late at night.
The door opened,..my dad lifted me up by the neck and hurled me accross the room onto my bed.
He never said a word to me after,
I never came home late drunk - waking the house up.
I slept in the yard a few times,......but never pissed him off like that again : )

October 13, 2010 | 10:36 am Guess who's coming to the family reunion?
It wasn't that long ago that it was discovered that President Obama was related to Vice President Dick Cheney. Late-night talk-show hosts had a field day in their monologues, and even the politicians joked about it.
Now comes the claim that the president is related to none other than former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin. According to the Associated Press, Anastasia Tyler, a genealogist at Ancestry.com, says the president and the hockey mom are 10th cousins by way of common ancestor Pastor John Smith, who settled in Massachusetts in the 17th century.
"Smith was against the persecution of the Quakers," Tyler said in an interview. "He was a very socially conscious man."
And if that weren't weird enough, Tyler is also claiming that conservative radio legend Rush Limbaugh is also a 10th cousin of President Obama, once removed. Their link is through a 17th century Virginian named Richmond Terrell whose history is "a little more nebulous," Tyler said.
Isn't Obama related to any liberals? Probably, but the info from the the Utah-based website just gets stranger. According to the Associated Press report, the site also is reporting that President George W. Bush is also related to Obama and Palin. The two presidents are 11th cousins through common ancestor Samuel Hinckly, Smith's father-in-law. Bush and Palin are 10th cousins once removed.
Since Thanksgiving is just a tad more than a month away, what do you think are the odds that President Obama invites his cousins over for the traditional American feast?

So Rotara,......Turkish flotilla was peacefull yes?
Question,....why would numerous powered disc cutters be found on the ship.
and then were used to cut pipe,..even railings from the ship ahead of time.
then you had slingshots,...marbles,small ballbearings and other cobbled together goodies.
Hitting someone with a pipe is going to piss them off.
You hit me with a pipe,...and I'll probably regret what happens afterwards.
So now,....Moo si lums can hit Ezz Ra eeli soldiers with pipes [and this is peacefull action]
but that chaos of hitting the IDF soldiers with pipes is in no way justification for them to defend themselves on a dark ship?
Tell me.....is it in the Quuur -ahn,..that a person should throw another of ones own faith off a building roof to the street below in Gaza?
do that to several people.
Torture,....[and please do not even try to defend that premise with Hamas,or Turks or Saudi's or Egyptians ...do not torture]
Do I think the IDF was totally wrong for boarding those ships?.....Yes!!!!
Israel should have let them sail into Gaza.
Why?,...because Juice Bankers make big money on the occupation,..the weapons,..the politics
and so do Moo si lums Bankers : )
I will not buy your koolaid that Moo si lums are good and Juice are Evil.
Your both just fucked!!
Here's your problem,....at some point,....Israels goob lets the dogs of war loose.
and they are everything from jacked up to get Hamdi,.....to,....its my patriotic duty to defend.
and ya....the superior technology means you get slaughtered.
