In his year-end column, New York Times columnist and Nobel Laureate Paul Krugman coins the first decade of the 21st Century "the Big Zero." He points out that, economically, the United States has ended the decade exactly where it started. The Dow Jones Industrial Average is still hovering around 10,000, residential real estate prices after a huge bubble expansion and "Pop!" of equal magnitude have dropped back to about where they were 10 years ago. There has been no job creation and median household income, adjusted for inflation, are about the same as they were in 1999.
Despite spending tens of billions of taxpayer dollars to beef up airline security in the wake of the 9/11/2001 terrorists attacks, we now know that progress in securing air travel has also been a big zero. On Christmas Day, a terrorist got onto a plane bound for the USA with 80 grams of the high explosive PETN that he attempted to detonate as the plane made its final approach into Detroit Wayne County Airport. This guy raised more red flags than a Chinese May Day Parade. His father reported him to the US Embassy in Nigeria as an extremist who had gone missing (with the presumption that he had gone to train as a terrorist). The ticket was purchased with cash (according to The New York Times). If these things had been put together (the latter, of course, should have been easily flagged and prompted someone to pull this guy aside, pat him down, and ask him some tough questions), in other words, if the various government agencies had communicated with each other and shared information, the entire incident could have been avoided. The guy probably would have been detained, found to have explosives, and arrested. But we now know that the agencies, just as they did prior to 9/11, didn't collaborate. They kept their information in their own narrow silos, reverting to the bureaucratic parochialism that we have spent billions upon billions in vain to change. Apparently, nothing has changed. What will it take to overcome the government agency turf battles that endanger the American people?

Ron Paul suggests ‘agenda’ to expand terror war, attack American liberty
Ron Paul suggests ‘agenda’ to expand terror war, attack American liberty: "
It happened on Sept. 11, 2001, and again on Dec. 25, 2009.
'There must be an agenda,' suggested Congressman Ron Paul (R-TX) in a recent video message to supporters.
'It seems ironic that there is so much excitement about this and now talk about attacking Yemen,' he said, noting recent bombing raids by Saudi forces, carried out with the explicit blessing of the United States.
'The Saudis are our close allies,' Paul explained. 'We provide them with the weapons and the airplanes and we did sanction and endorse the bombing of Yemen.'
Story continues below...
He said that terrorist-style tactics carried out against the United States and U.S. interests are a response to occupation of Arab lands. The attempted attack on Northwest Airlines Flight 253, he said, was a result of 'either awful stupidity or there must be an agenda.'
'I am concerned what they are going to do to the American people,' he said.
And by 'they,' he meant U.S. leaders.
'They’ll add some more security on to us,' Paul explained. 'First they make us take off our shoes and then our belts and then small bottles of water and put our computers in a tray and on and on so something else is going to happen, they won’t let us get out of our seats or look at our bags, thinking that’s going to make us a lot safer.'
'The bigger the problem and the more the fear is built up, the more they take away our personal liberties and turn us all into zombies and the American people go along with it and say, 'as long as it makes us safer I guess it’s okay to go along,'' he countinued. 'But it's time the American people woke up and started realizing that there's a bit of propaganda going on and quite possibly this incident will not only undermine our personal liberties but will also accelerate our intervention and the violence occurring in the Middle East.'
This video is from Ron Paul's Campaign for Liberty, published to the Internet on Dec. 28, 2009.
