He could escape the swaddle after 2 weeks. I even bought some velcro swaddles. He was strong enough to wiggle out of them. The doctor told me I couldn't swaddle him anymore because he could already roll over on his own, so it would be dangerous to swaddle him. He's stubborn (no clue where he got that from
) so he will cry for hours. He does like country music for some reason. So that calms him down, or ocean sounds. I think he's an insomniac like me. He constantly wants to observe the world and he doesn't want to miss anything."When you cease to try to understand, then you will know not understanding"

1. “Power is not only what you have, but what the enemy thinks you have.” Power is derived from 2 main sources – money and people. “Have-Nots” must build power from flesh and blood.
2. “Never go outside the expertise of your people.” It results in confusion, fear and retreat. Feeling secure adds to the backbone of anyone.
3. “Whenever possible, go outside the expertise of the enemy.” Look for ways to increase insecurity, anxiety and uncertainty.
4. “Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules.” If the rule is that every letter gets a reply, send 30,000 letters. You can kill them with this because no one can possibly obey all of their own rules.
5. “Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon.” There is no defense. It’s irrational. It’s infuriating. It also works as a key pressure point to force the enemy into concessions.
6. “A good tactic is one your people enjoy.” They’ll keep doing it without urging and come back to do more. They’re doing their thing, and will even suggest better ones.
7. “A tactic that drags on too long becomes a drag.” Don’t become old news.
8. “Keep the pressure on. Never let up.” Keep trying new things to keep the opposition off balance. As the opposition masters one approach, hit them from the flank with something new.
9. “The threat is usually more terrifying than the thing itself.” Imagination and ego can dream up many more consequences than any activist.
10. “The major premise for tactics is the development of operations that will maintain a constant pressure upon the opposition.” It is this unceasing pressure that results in the reactions from the opposition that are essential for the success of the campaign.
11. “If you push a negative hard enough, it will push through and become a positive.” Violence from the other side can win the public to your side because the public sympathizes with the underdog.
12. “The price of a successful attack is a constructive alternative.” Never let the enemy score points because you’re caught without a solution to the problem.
13. “Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.” Cut off the support network and isolate the target from sympathy. Go after people and not institutions; people hurt faster than institutions.
-Saul Alinsky

1) Healthcare — Control healthcare and you control the people
2) Poverty — Increase the Poverty level as high as possible, poor people are easier to control and will not fight back if you are providing everything for them to live.
3) Debt — Increase the debt to an unsustainable level. That way you are able to increase taxes, and this will produce more poverty.
4) Gun Control — Remove the ability to defend themselves from the Government. That way you are able to create a police state.
5) Welfare — Take control of every aspect of their lives (Food, Housing, and Income).
6) Education — Take control of what people read and listen to — take control of what children learn in school.
7) Religion — Remove the belief in the God from the Government and schools.
8) Class Warfare — Divide the people into the wealthy and the poor. This will cause more discontent and it will be easier to take (Tax) the wealthy with the support of the poor.

I've heard that one sooo many times over the years.
I don't agree with either part of it.

Hence the continuous snark from annoying people in the world throughout life...
For one reason or another, I guess they think they're in battle and need a weapon.

All of this from his Rules for Radicals, right?
As far as "divide people into wealthy and poor" Whom? Who is doing the dividing here? The amassing of wealth by a small percent of people is doing this on its own.

I think the "division" now is on other lines as well...race, "orientation," gender, etc...the point is divide and conquer.
And yes, these are pulled from Saul Alinsky's book "Rules for Radicals."
I don't think the "whom" is all that difficult to ascertain.
