    If, indeed corpocracy is supposed to be the new post sovereign regime, and if, indeed, they may even mean to kill us all by using electrosmog as an agent, how can we fight back? If the utility has been privatized perhaps we have no influential voice as a stakeholder. Not individually in any case but perhaps collectively, via class action?  The real meaning of privatized is just that, we pay, they play, we lose. We pick up the tab for the distribution of that which is intended to harm us and the meter bills us for the much larger bite of power it requires to run digitally versus the low cost and long life expectancy of analog meters they are using to fill landfills. &lt;br /&gt;
Still.... Perhaps we still have a degree of control via the circuit box which we do own. Shut off as many circuits as possible, especially the ones which may link to radiation antenna equipped appliances and other devices. Interfere with being monitored and save money.  &lt;br /&gt;
Simplify. Only turn on each circuit at the circuit box as needed. Of course the freezer must not be shut off. Good idea for hot water too, since one can use the tank as an on demand system instead of paying 33% of the bill just to have it on all the time on the off chance of using the hot water. .  &lt;br /&gt;
Resistance is better than submission. I do agree that a relationship with a ruthless electrical utility corporation anyone depends on to run and maintain large scale farming is not the ideal level of electrical dependency from which to fight back.  &lt;br /&gt;
Still, for some there are ways....if you take a cell phone in &quot;on&quot; mode and wrap it complete in aluminium foil, if will keep on trying to transmit until it fries itself.&lt;br /&gt;
One way, at least to address these infernal meters, is first and foremost to shield a far larger area - at least several feet in all direction - on the interior wall of any structure behind the location of these meters. This can be done by using metal sheets grounded with a copper wire to a water pipe, metals which are known to deflect EMFs.&lt;br /&gt;
Then one could opt to turkey wrap the meter each night after utility hours but do so completely (remember since even a pinhole will allow the meter to broadcast to other meters and to the satellites). &lt;br /&gt;
The idea with this approach if it happened round the clock (tricky, they tend to dispatch investigators) would be to fight fire with fire, to electromagnetically suffocate the transmission antenna embedded in the meter until the RF then converts to heat. Ultimately this  means that the device fries the meter itself. Of course don&#039;t try this at home folks, it&#039;s deemed to be illegal.&lt;br /&gt;
Remember no radio frequency device is permitted by law to interfere with any other radio frequency device. True of meters as well. Another way is to locate the bandwidth on which this meter&#039;s  frequency broadcasts, usually 900 mghz, often unlicensed, and then RRANGE TO interfere with the amount of broadcast bandwidth being usurped.&lt;br /&gt;
THEN AGAIN, CHECK WITH INSURANCE CORPORATIONS: Why not sic one corporation on another? NO insurance company will insure any smart meter for any contingency, be it fire, damage to other devices, or health. This is worth pursuing. &lt;br /&gt;
Meanwhile, consider group action while buying time.

    They have since removed the tag at the bottom of the page. I saw it myself, and the page as of today is different than it was. Perhaps there were too many visits, and someone decided to yank the claim that further testing was unnecessary.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thanks for pointing that out.

I clicked on link and went to the bottom of the page, as you suggest, however I do not see anything remotely close to what you say. In fact there is nothing at all.&lt;br /&gt;

    There&#039;s spermicide in the corn dude! Does anything else need to be said? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I don&#039;t care if that spermicide is meant as an oral mouthwash, its in the corn...

    Sigh, this GMO corn is not meant for human consumption, nor would it work as a spermicide if it was.  It was meant to be used to produce a spermicidal personal lubricant.  A PERSONAL LUBRICANT!  Please get your facts straight before you engage in such inflammatory behavior.  &lt;br /&gt;

    Interesting insight - psychological preparation for urban warfare, are we being told something.!?. &lt;img src=&quot;http://www.harvestdream.org/templates/default/img/emoticons/eek.png&quot; alt=&quot;:-O&quot; style=&quot;display: inline; vertical-align: bottom;&quot; class=&quot;emoticon&quot; /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I can&#039;t seem to forget that news story  several months back where the Queen of England, upon her visit to Mexico, handed the the Mexican President a signed book of George Orwell&#039;s 1984 as a &#039;gift&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The signs are all there for those who wish to see.

    I&#039;ve played through this game myself and this airport level isn&#039;t the only one for concern. This game actually has you live out what war would be like in residential areas and city shop centers. I know its not pleasant to think we&#039;re being conditioned in any way, but i feel this game makes it all to obvious. &lt;br /&gt;
I personally felt like a question was being posed to me while i played the soldier with an endless stream of info being talked into my ear; When this happens for real, will you want that  gun and motivating voice? Will you need it?

    Telling a story about a &#039;subject&#039; is one thing, manipulating youth into becoming the active subjects of said subject is altogether another.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To deal with the reality of human torture do we need to make a game in which we engage in &#039;simulated&#039; though &#039;not yet realistic enough&#039; torture and mutilation?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Your logic is acting quite broken.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Video games don&#039;t deal with &#039;subjects&#039;, they engage human minds into a prefabricated scenario, with fixed linear sequences of finite variability.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Even the best video games, the most captivating and smartly imagined, are but an off ramp from the greater reality bearing down on humanity. Though that&#039;s just my opinion - I feel as though time is much better spent on other endeavours, like acquiring real skills.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m pretty confident however that games will be made quite accessible through government run programs, even when things get really ugly. If you know what I mean.

    <content:encoded>
    Inflation does not require consumer credit to chase goods, this current debasement occurs at the top of the spending pyramid, where highly liquid pools of &#039;capital&#039; are securing resource deals outside the watchful eye of the market. Much more goes on off the table than on the table. When the prices of raw materials increase as supply shrinks from credit starvation, off the table money buys up the supply chain. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is the very nature of the predation we are witnessing. The cliff drop in commodity prices this past year insured massive future supply shortages that will inevitably force prices higher purely as a function of supply/demand in the global economy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
How can a movie ticket cost $100 dollars in an environment where the middle class has no money? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It happens because of demand destruction for a product that people still want. People will want to go to the movies, though they won&#039;t be able to afford it even at $14 or so. The corporate model going forward will be more akin to - charge more to make up for lost revenue. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Those who still have money will pay more, those without, well, that&#039;s life.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Profits will be had elsewhere. You&#039;ll see smaller cinemas with leather chairs and sushi, and the larger complexes that don&#039;t shut altogether will be for mass tv screenings &lt;img src=&quot;http://www.harvestdream.org/templates/default/img/emoticons/laugh.png&quot; alt=&quot;:-D&quot; style=&quot;display: inline; vertical-align: bottom;&quot; class=&quot;emoticon&quot; /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The model will remain higher revenues and to hell with those who have no money. Corporate profits are global now, so if certain markets shrink massively while other emerging markets develop their own upper management class the revenue structure balances out. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The situation moving forward - Little to no middle class anywhere, the insider class (Directors) who wield the big wallets and the management class - that is the new consumer base. Those corporations that are not &#039;in on the game&#039; will get eaten, and the now global revenue base will become the feeding ground for an increasingly centralized circle of corporate entities. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I foresee a 70 - 90% devaluation of the dollar over the next few years, in an environment where the actual cost of energy, food and other raw materials soars in virtually every currency as these tangibles become harder to acquire. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The playing field is being leveled, corporate profits are global, therefore inflation is not reliant simply on North American/Atlantic credit consumption, it&#039;s about a shrinking supply of resources and a global war to acquire them. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The world does not look kindly on America painting paper and ingratiating an insider clan to buy up everything of tangible worth. The problem is that this insider clan have very shrewdly infected every other nation (mostly) with the same poison (PETROL-DOLLAR).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Commodity prices will not see a true bear market for another decade or two. This will be the cause of price inflation in the depressionary environment you describe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once one truly and fundamentally understands the fact that the base of actual resources available to the market is in a serious and terminal decline, than the idea of deflation and inflation as they are normally understood lose all relevance. The fact is that tangible assets will be harder to acquire regardless of the unit of measure we apply. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Take agriculture for example, food production is dropping globally, due to both the credit market and ecological restraints. Will the demand for food  diminish or increase in the years ahead?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s obvious that demand will increase, so everyone that can will print money like crazy in a contest to secure these food resources for themselves. When the currencies lose appeal due to this mad dash for the food, goods themselves will be used to settle trade.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
and so it goes...

    I half agree with you and used to work in that industry (I still make games, but free of the tentacles) however I think you&#039;re somewhat overreacting and are responding in a similar vein to Fox News. The interactive medium should be able to tackle subjects like this, though the makers of this game arguably pussied out of making a sharper political message and padded it so that, in the end, it would fit in a conventional good vs. evil model. They could have, for example, made a more strongly implicit statement about how many people the USA has sponsored the killing of. I&#039;ve seen the videos of people playing &quot;drone attack&quot; and murdering Afgans via remote crosshairs, that haunts me, but don&#039;t confuse a commercially bastardized attempt at artistic expression with mass indoctrination. As far as I can tell the most advanced designers in the field of &quot;persuasion&quot; are doing contract work for political campaigns and advertisers and the mil-gov complex hasn&#039;t gotten much farther than America&#039;s Army. That&#039;s a good thing.

    Rather than contest opinion I just want to lay out a few facts. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Money supply is a function of people willingly taking on credit. Governments can create money via debt to the central bank but that money won&#039;t see the multiplier effect of fractional reserve banking if people don&#039;t sign up to take on commercial debt. Right now banks are holding their typed-into-existence money on reserve and being paid a pathetic interest rate, a few basis points or something like that, by The Fed. Meanwhile bankruptcy rates are increasing as are debt defaults. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Now my opinion. A $100 movie ticket? Best case scenario? That&#039;s fucking crazy. We&#039;re going through monetary deflation right now and have only seen nominal asset inflation for the past 8 months. That deflation may collapse into a nominally inflationary explosion with everything deflating against gold, but I suspect it&#039;ll follow the Argentina model more then the Zimbabwe model. I live in Argentina and I have to say, the 2001 experience worked out pretty well for the local oligarchs, wouldn&#039;t be surprised if the global oligarchs use the same model to handle the vertical money supply melt-down.
