A warning of unprecedented staff cuts at Toyota, the world’s biggest auto maker, and word of a possible first quarter loss by Volkswagen piled fresh pressure on struggling car manufacturers on Friday.
The bleak news came after a halt in dividend payments on Thursday by Italy’s Fiat SpA, the first European car maker to report 2008 results, as it headed into what it called one of its worst years.
As the global auto sector reeled from economic recession, plunging demand and production cuts, UBS analysts said they expected France’s PSA Peugeot Citroen and Renault to suspend dividends as well.
European commercial vehicle makers also shared the pain of economic downturn with industry data on Friday showing a 24.4 percent year-on-year drop in the market for December.
Toyota is considering cutting full-time employees in Britain and North America, a company source familiar with the matter told Reuters.

You give central banker control of your money system; he screw you.
Then he come back for more with bailout, and mo and mo
Then he no give you credit to buy cars. you drive junker, then bicycle. then you walk.

i work for toyota. ive been awake for a while now. but i know the majority of the people at my job dont agree with my views on life as a info warrior. oh well ive been preparing in case the poop hits the fan, cant say much about the people ive tried to warn who just think im ridiculous.
January 24th, 2009 at 12:00 am
I try to warn people that I care about on what is coming. They just roll their eyes anytime I start to bring up anything. I suppose they’re preconditioned to react this way. Why is it nobody can believe what is happening right before their own eyes. I’m afraid I will be fighting alone which means I won’t be able to fight for long.

I can certainly empathize with 15. It’s one thing to hand out ice cream, but another, when it’s potassium iodide tablets, verbally speaking. Positive attitude certainly has its place, but people do have the historical pattern of killing the messenger, dismissing the concern as ‘negativity.’ In the early ’90s, when the Dow hit 4000 so quickly and kept going, I began to warn about an unsustainable demographic phenomenon, the equity bidding ‘pyramid’ which the boomers, who were in their peak savings years, were engaged in. To tell them that industry could not sustain growth to keep up with the money being thrown at it, let alone the effects of a reversal when demographics took its turn, was to rain on their parade, and earn the title of ‘gloom and doom.’ All of this was without the addition of the 800 lb gorilla – our friends at the top, who understand that to make twenty trillion dollars, you destroy the market, together with 800 billion of your own equity in it, and then mop up twenty one trillion in assets with your surviving two hundred billion. Of course, if you were at the battle of Waterloo and had carrier pigeons, this process would have been somewhat simpler than it is today. All of you who are suffering a beating from an honest effort to wake a society up, take heart – you are not as alone as it may at first seem!

I am not a number, I have a name.
So where have our numbers gone? I am going to look pretty stupid when they switch the comment numbers baack on.
I had a customer who did not number his bills and invoices, I said, it’s easy, let me add numbers to your invoice system. He asks why. I say so you can tell if there are any missing. He says EXACTLY!

It’s alot like the game of musical chairs. Money is the blood of the economy, in the body of society. As long as it circulates consistently, the body is healthy. A healthy society has both high production and consumption levels. The higher the better in both catagories.
In a recession, the music stops. And as usual, the only people who have a “chair” are the rich. Everyone else is overextended on credit or already near the dumpster to begin with aka “the rich get richer and the poor stay that way”- BY DESIGN.
Everyone with half a brain knows that MONEY MAKES MONEY- not “hard work”. Those who are crafty and work with their brain will get somewhere, whether their integrity is moral or not. Such as the dickhead who came up with “girls gone wild”- has his hands ever run a jackhammer? Probably not. But America rewards whoremongering nowadays, and all other forms of theivery passed off as “enterprise”.
Meanwhile, the wheels of unchecked nor balanced capitolism continue to run over hard working honest people in it’s path on the designed road to absolute tyranny.

*** DAILY NOTE***
I see many people speaking of Alex Jones throwing things out of proportion and others saying he’s doing everything right. This misunderstanding of parties is from not understanding that Alex Jones gets very excited and or disturbed by what he reports at times. This excitement throws him into a state of mind which others may not find harmony with. The information can be true and correct as far as politics goes, however, it is not only the information which affects the listeners, but the tone in which it is being presented. Some people choose to digest this same information with calm attitude, which allows for more clear thinking and less “exaggerating tone”. Let Alex Be, make your own conclusions from what you hear.
- All the best.

Whose World is This World?
Black, white, blue or yellow men
Leave your old disputes behind
Once talking with your fellow men
You will soon be of one mind
For if we want to make this certain
We’ll need you and your support
It’s yourselves you’ll be deserting
If you cannibal your own sort
All the gangs of those who rule us
Hope our disagreements never stop
Helping them to divide and fool us
So they can remain on top!
Slaves of the planet, uniting
That’s the way to lose your chains
Mighty regimes are fighting
That no determine Rebel remains!
Join the movement without forgetting
That peace and justice need to be hurled
For when starving or when regretting
Ask yourself whose world is this world?

I think that everyone should take the time out to read this TOP SECRET document that was discovered by accident in 1986.
Conspiracy theories are nothing new to history. Plots to “kill Caesar” and overthrow
Rome abounded, for instance. however, it is seldom that concrete clues to such plots
come to light, and are generally known.
Silent Weapons for Quiet Wars, An Introduction Programming Manual was uncovered
quite by accident on July 7, 1986 when an employee of Boeing Aircraft Co. purchased
a surplus IBM copier for scrap parts at a sale, and discovered inside details of a plan,
hatched in the embryonic days of the “Cold War” which called for control of the
masses through manipulation of industry, peoples’ pastimes, education and political
leanings. It called for a quiet revolution, putting brother against brother, and diverting
the public’s attention from what is really going on.
The document you are about to read is real. It is reprinted in its virgin form, with
diagrams, as a touch of reality.

ALIENS:
An alien is a physical being residing on a different planet within this physical universe.
EXTRATERRESTRIALS:
An E.T., short for extra-terrestrial; is a borderline physical or non-physical being who comes from another dimensional space-time. There are actual laws that state it is against the law for any American to have contact with an Extraterrestrial. On the same page it states that nobody can have any type of contact with dolphins unsupervised. What does that tell you about dolphins?
There are only 4 or 5 different alien groups involved on Earth at this time and allowed to come here. The aliens working with the Illuminati are the Sirians from Sirius A, Reptilians from the Draco star system (also underground on Earth), certain Pleiadian groups from the Pleiades star system, and different types of Grey aliens. A Staged Alien Invasion will be implemented in the near-future to scare the population on Earth into accepting a One World Government/New World Order. Over 90% of all UFO sightings are ships that are from Earth.
SIRIANS FROM SIRIUS A:
These tall and slender beings wear long blue and white robes. When they extend their arms straight out to the side, their bodies form an “ankh”, which is their symbol. They are the merchants of the universe, selling and trading technology and information in exchange for exclusive trade routes and special considerations. They never provide technology that might be used against them. They were created by the Ohaluans, and have lost their true purpose. They strongly influenced the ancient Egyptian and Hebrew civilizations, and now have an agreement with the Israeli government. They created the Sphynx in Egypt, the Pyramids on Mars’ Cydonia Plateau, provided technology for the government at the Montauk Project, and also wrote the original Old Testament of the Bible in Aramaic, which is coded and can only be deciphered with a computer. They perform genetic experiments, and created the Vegans as their assistants. The Sirians made the Crystal Skull, keeping its reciprocal safeguarded on their home planet, Khoom. They are seven to eight feet tall.
DRACO / DRACONIAN REPTILIANS:
Created by an ET group, the creators traveled back in time and space with genetic material to support the disintegration of the Lyraen civilization. With seven different types of Draco races, the leader group is a seven to eight foot tall winged reptilian-type creature. A warrior class is used to conquer and occupy a planet. The slender four to five foot Draco similar to a lizard performs menial tasks and aids abductions. Harsh, warlike beings who feel little emotion, the Draco have no regard for culture or other beings. Most Draco are androgynous and reproduce by parthenogenesis, or cloning. One special group that is completely male creates hybrid races that conquer others. The Earth’s Moon is a Draco planetoid placed in orbit aeons ago during the time of the Lemurian colonization. With the intention to divide and conquer, they are known to be brutal, as with Rigel by boiling oceans, scorching landmasses, etc. The Draco have vast underground bases on Earth and colonies on Venus. These are pure Reptilians. The hybrid Illuminati are in control of the Earth.
PLEIADIANS:
Also known as the Nordics, or tall blondes, these beings are from the seven star Pleiadian system that contains 15 inhabited planets, they were refugees from the Lyraen civilization. After the United States government realized in 1959 that the Rigelians had deceived them, the Pleiadians were invited to fill the technological gap. However, these beings orchestrated Hitler’s attempt to purify the human race, subverted the Buddhist religion, have an extensive underground base in Tibet, and beam Extremely Low Frequency (ELF) to various groups of humans who “channel” benevolent “space brothers” from the Pleiades. These beings are generally six to seven feet tall. The Pleidians are under a Supreme Council headed by non-physical beings appearing as robed, white figures. One group of Pleiadians, known as the Atlans, colonized Atlantis. There is a smaller blue-skinned group that works with the Pleiadians. The shorter dark-haired Pleiadians are the ones who are in contact with Billy Meier in Switzerland and are benevolent beings. In all, there are sixteen different Pleiadian groups amongst the seven stars of that system.
EXTRATERRESTRIAL BIOLOGICAL ENTITY (EBE):
These aliens were given their name by the United States Government. They appear to be plant material rather than biological, and absorb energy directly from the sun. They are approximately three feet tall.
DOLPHINS:
Dolphins are an extraterrestrial lifeform who co-exist in physical and non-physical planes of existence. They were brought to Earth from their home galaxy in Andromeda by a race called the Krell to observe and monitor the co-creation of the new Earth-human during the times of Atlantis and Lemuria.
SPACE BROTHERS COMING TO SAVE US:
There are NO space brothers coming to save us. This is Illuminati new age disinformation designed to make “new agers” sit and wait for alien or extraterrestrial group(s) to come and save you so that you do not interfere with the NWO agenda. There are no benevolent alien or extraterrestrial groups that will come and save or interfere directly with an evolving species like ourselves. If they did we would not learn from the experience, history would repeat itself, and we would attract tyrants all over again. We have to save ourselves to evolve from this. Advanced beings understand the species mind-pattern and how evolution works, that is why they will not get directly involved, and it is also why the only aliens that are directly involved on this planet are malevolent in nature and working with the government.
ROSWELL UFO CRASH:
The Roswell crash in Roswell, New Mexico in 1947 was a staged event orchestrated by the Illuminati/secret government to introduce the population to the alien presence on Earth, just as 9/11 was a staged event to introduce the population to the “terrorist” threat on Earth. There really are terrorists and there really are aliens, however they are both controlled by the Illuminati and the threat is a deception created for the New World Order agenda.
ALIEN ABDUCTIONS:
Just about all alien abductions today are being orchestrated by the secret government/Illuminati. They are doing this to instill fear into the public and imprint the population’s mind-pattern for the upcoming Staged Alien Invasion. Certain alien groups are allowed to abduct humans for this reason.
STAGED ALIEN INVASION:
In the near-future, possibly by 2010, the Illuminati will be orchestrating a Staged Alien Invasion utilizing Project Blue Beam holographic projection technology. Things are going to heat up very soon, pay attention to all UFO and alien propaganda being presented.
CROP CIRCLES:
“Crap” Circles are mostly done by the secret government/Illuminati. The technology was discovered by a scientist at Brookhaven Labs and they are complex Hyperspace archetypes. They imprint these on certain energy points to alter the Earth’s energy grid (or ley lines). They are also used as alien disinformation for the staged alien invasion and new age disinformation with fake hidden messages from space brothers coming to save the population. Crop circles are formed through radionics, psychotronics, and/or laser/light energy.
MERMAID / MERMEN / BIGFOOT / WEREWOLF:
The Atlanteans (Atlans/Lyraens), despite what you may have read in various “new age” disinformation, they were not very nice people either. The Atlanteans performed horrible genetic experimentations; they mixed human genetics with dolphin genetics and created what you have learned to be known as Merfolk, or Mermaid and Mermen. There are 3 pockets of those beings that still exist on the Earth, one of them is off the coast of the outer islands of South Carolina, the other pocket is in the Bay of Fundy in Nova Scotia, and the third is off of the Hebrides Islands in Scotland. To this very day sightings of these types of creatures still exist. They also created what you know as Bigfoot and Yeti by mixing bear genetics with human genetics, those also still exist in some pockets on the Earth. And they also created an ancient mythological creature that invokes fear even to this very day, and that is the Werewolf, and they simply did that by mixing wolf genetics with human, and that actually led to the story of the creation of Rome and the Roman Empire who claim that they are descendants of twins that were born of a wolf-mother. All of these stories and myths, both Greek, Roman, Babylonian, etc. have a basis in fact because they are based on actual occurrences. To this very day there are human beings born with webbed hands and feet or extra fingers and toes, these are all throwbacks to the ancient Atlantean genetic experimentation, which is still in existence to this very day genetically.
MOTHMAN:
This is an Illuminati hybrid creation that escaped from an underground base in West Virginia. The Mothman hybrid also may have been released into the public to see how it would react with humans, and vice versa.
CHUPACABRA:
These vampiric-type creatures are used by underground Reptilians and Greys to collect blood and organs from animals.

If you thought the housing bubble crash was bad, wait until the business bubble bursts. Many companies operate at very lean margins, sometimes even at a loss. They are able to survive through revolving credit, the equivalent of a consumer paying off one credit card with another. By ‘expanding’ and getting loans for ‘new initiatives’ they can cover the payments of the previous loan, even if it doesn’t result in net profits. If you have any doubts ask your company accountant. Everyone is so eager to blame the banksters, but how many corporations worldwide play their game? Have you ever thought about the company you work for, how net profits compare to operating costs? America is pouring cash into the system to keep it afloat, but the reality is no amount of cash can save an infinite pyramid. I guess I know why there is a pyramid on the dollar bill now, what a joke on us…
The band may have played on while the Titanic was sinking to try and distract the crowd from their impending doom, but rest assured, that bitch still sank.

Very simple – people need money to buy cars or in order to get loans to buy cars. Therefore the country needs jobs and not only jobs but good paying jobs and not McJobs with minimum pay.
That applies to the whole Western World, not only to the US.

Isn’t America great our jobs are outsourced out the front door and when we turn around an illegal alien comes in the back door and takes any other possible employment oppurtunity away. Yes this is Capitalism at work. Yes the middle class is in the middle all right MONKEY IN THE MIDDLE.

If your going to buy a ‘NEW CAR’, make sure it is a ‘NEW CAR!’
By new car,I mean NEW TECHNOLOGY! Just looked at a 2009 Demo of a VW clean diesel at the Dealership. It had 1300kms on it. The inside of the exhaust tail pipe looked like a BRAND NEW piece of exhaust pipe at a muffler shop. AND THIS IS A DIESEL!. The salesman collected the condensation coming out of the tail pipe,and it has NO PETROLEUM ODOUR WHATSOEVER! I will purchase a 2009 VW JettaWagen this spring,WITH A DIESEL! Stay away from the Hybrid Junk,specially if you live in a Cold Climate
