(Before It's News)

When President Barack Obama urged Americans under siege from Hurricane Sandy to stay inside and keep watch on ready.gov for the latest, he left out something pretty important — where to turn if the electricity goes out.

    It was not lost it was stolen. Along with our ability to generate our own power, we lost our own communications. They have taken a complete Monopoly of all Necessary to Life Services and have illegally Incorporated everything to their Benefit and Gain, and this is part of the crime called Covet Means. Then they charge us multiple Fee’s & create multiple streams of profit, for a service that was created for the Free service to the Public, of Need to know information and critical storms were included in that.

    This appears to have provided a test run, for what would happen to our ability to communicate if they shut all the power down. I did think it odd they shut down completely, and so very early. Also, looking at the pictures so far, there really wasn’t that bad of flooding so far as I’ve seen. Compared to southern historic flooding, some pic’s look like Houston after a hard rain. They haven’t reported many deaths, but I’ve always found them to lie about these things. We’ll have to wait until we can hear from the residents themselves before we know more.
