Let’s talk motive with “essential businesses”

, ,


The only reason why Governments across the country will go to all ends to keep big corporations open like Costco, Walmart, Home Depot, where nobody actually social distances, is because of sales taxes they collect for the state. And they know it. 


Why doesn’t Gary Herbert and Spencer Cox care to fight for the small businesses? Well, the sales tax to the state for most small business is so miniscule they don’t care to fight for it; therefore they don’t care if they stay open like the big guys. That’s the sad sad truth. That’s the motive behind all of this. 


Within one week of government officials shaming UBR for trying to save small businesses in Kaysville, while listening to country music, the state had the nerve to announce Lagoon amusement park would reopen??? Why? Well, because they won’t be getting much money from us in Kaysville, right?. “It’s unsafe and radical!” They say….
But what about Lagoon? Clearly Covid19 is smart enough to not go after people riding on the same metal equipment rides over and over and over. Right? Or, is it about how much money Lagoon brings to the state? Can you answer that Spencer Cox? 


Governments accuse groups like us saying, “all you care about is money for the economy., Not lives!” When the saddest irony of 2020 is that’s exactly what THEY are guilty of, by only allowing the big business in Utah to thrive. It makes me want to throw up. 


As we see in government, especially the higher you go up, bad decision after bad decision is made. Why? Because it truly is tied directly to the money. Follow the money and you’ll understand why MOST decisions are made in the state. And yes, these decisions always fall on the backs of the people. This is to say nothing of the power and control that fuels them. You know, the “This is Cox Country” type attitude. They really truly believe they are in charge of us like babysitters. 


I hope this awakened us to our awful situation. Because right now, even though we may seem to be getting out of it, I fear this is only the beginning. And it’s awful. Yes, God is good and will bless us, but He can’t bless us fully if we don’t take action in OUR lives. Faith is action. 


The ONLY way to stop anything like this from happening again, is to keep peacefully pushing back against a wild and out of control Government. Yes, even annoyingly. Even if they try to threaten the “law” on you. They have NO right to take away your God given rights.

Just because I make fun of the mask doctrine doesn’t mean I don’t love you

, , ,

A few days ago I walked into my daughters doctor appointment, ironically to pick up her immunization records for school. They stopped me and put a mask on me. I wanted to raise a fuss, but needed to get out of there quick. While giving my name and standing at the desk, a medical staff person stopped me and said “Hey I follow the Utah Business Revival and love what you’re doing!” I then asked her what she thought about the masks. She slowly took hers down, and so did the other woman, and said, “We hate that we have to wear these, and they don’t even work anyway.” This was from the staff at the hospital. Go figure.

Now, I posted a comment about masks on our Utah Business Revival Facebook page, and started taking on a little heat-

“Eric, is this about saving Utah Business or what?” Or things like “Stay on your mission” etc etc etc … In other words, the mask is off limits because we don’t want to talk about the giant elephant in the room. Right? Or should I say sheep? Because we don’t want to hurt someone’s feelings for telling them the truth? And sometimes the truth may be a regular human reaction type chuckle.

People are now ironically questioning those of us who question friends, family, or the single person riding a bike in the park wearing a mask? Interesting. How many times do you see someone in a single passenger car wearing a mask, all alone? How can you not laugh? I mean that. How can you not laugh at that? Just because I make fun of the mask doctrine at times doesn’t mean I don’t love you. In fact, I love you enough to tell you the truth. Why? Because of the actual, factual information we have about wearing masks during this “pandemic”.

I saw another picture of a man in the ocean literally wearing a mask with gloves. Remember, these are the same type of people who make fun of others who believe in all types of conspiracy theories. The irony is too think to swallow. It’s getting to the point where it’s just sad. Truly sad.

How can anyone not laugh at this? I really mean that. Not to be mean, but how can’t you laugh? Help me understand.

Now, here’s Dr. Fauci himself talking below, not me, him. The person everyone is trusting right now. And Youtube, Facebook and Twitter are doing everything they can do scrub this video. It’s hard to find and this link will probably be scrubbed within a few day… Dr. Fauci said in the video… “When you’re in the middle of an outbreak, wearing a mask might make you feel better… but it’s not (providing) protection.”

I feel I’ve been really going out of my way to not make fun of people (too badly at least to their faces) when it comes to wearing a mask. We live in America. Wear what you want. I want to respect people’s who want take their own decisions for their lives. Including businesses who wish who “require” this madness. That’s their choice. And it’s our choice not to frequent those establishments as well. That’s the beauty of a free market.

But right now you have people wearing anything and everything around their faces, including old dirty/stinky t-shirts and believe it’s going to save them from a virus that’s now proving to possibly be less deadly than the actual flu. Why? Because of the MSM and the giant corps like Costco, who only made more money during the shutdown, are now FORCING and scaring people, employees, and members to get in line and shut up with the very mask that doesn’t even work. That’s the truth.

I walked into Costco for the first time yesterday and told the lady at the front door I have a medical condition with the masks. She didn’t ask why, but just let me in. What’s the condition in my mind? Pure anxiety every time I think about how We The Sheeple are being conditioned to do whatever the state and health departments say. Again, it’s not the masks, it’s the conditioning without questioning that’s so alarming. I say we choose a date and all walk into Costco at the same time with a “medical condition”.

I think I finally know what it feels like to be an atheist watching (in their eyes) their view of the strange and bizarre behavior from “Religious People” who are just going through motions and not even questioning the traditions of their fathers. Just “hoping”; Putting their “faith” in things hoped for and not actually seen. In fact, all the evidence is stacked against them. The covid19 theology doctrine changes from day to day with no rhyme or reason. 

Do not call it science if you aren’t allowed to question it. Call it a belief system. Call it a religion. Call it a cult. But let us please stop calling it science.

Have you not over and over witnessed the scared, frustrated and almost angry look in most waiter and waitresses eyes right now? It like they are slaves in a way. And nobody is doing anything about it. It’s their livelihood. It’s the only way they can eat. Just like the only way the children of Israel could eat is by bowing down and slaving away to the Pharaoh or prince of Egypt. Someone tell me how this idea is much different? An actually whip, maybe? Different clothes? At least the children of Israel could at least breath while they slaved away. 

The mask is so much more than a mask. The mask is a symbol of control and defeat. I believe a literal sign and token given by the devil himself to mock not only God, but every single one of us. He is in control right now. And it needs to stop immediately.

When do we get to the point when we actually just start telling people “Hey I love you, but you know that mask doesn’t actually work, right?” Because what if we did? What if we made a commitment to tell that 10 people everyday? Do you think if a million of us just started telling people that, because it’s the truth, that we could push the conversation a few months (or years) earlier? Because I fear this is just the beginning until they find a vaccine they FORCE everyone to take. I pray for our country. We need to LET God bless America. We can’t let Him without Faith; and Faith is action, not fear.

A Letter from a Brother in Blue about the SLC Protest/Rally

, ,

A letter from an SLCPD officer to me-
(I removed parts out for privacy)

Apr 19, 2020

Keep the fight brother. Many of the officers I spoke with today during shift were 100% on board with your rally and 100% against the restrictions. I don’t know any that are enforcing it.

…we (the union) need to express to Chief Brown we would not enforce the stay home order. You can imagine it fell on deaf ears. Not sure I’m quite ballsy enough, like you, to tell the chief what’s what. Maybe one day I’ll put my big boy pants on.

Anyway, wanna tell you I support you 110%. Keep standing up for the Constitution and what it truly means. Not many people like you left in America.

Your friend and fellow officer,

Xxxxxxxxx (badge # xxxx)

Thank you, brother.

You won’t be able to change it (with just you) from the inside unless you choose to fight the devil himself within and lose your job altogether; because he is in the details of this entire thing; fear and panic is of him. I’m sure you can feel that like many of us can.

If you do fight, then you altogether lose the ability to feed your family. And your family is the most important. Don’t forget that during this emotional time. But I pray if it gets really bad and there is some type of harder order from government, all the police will stand up at the same time. Because there will be several more waves of corona. Government will have to choose.

I fear it’s only going to get worse economically for the next several years and I pray your badge number is high enough once they start laying off cops; because that is coming. I assure you. In other words, I wouldn’t jeopardize it unless you really feel it in your heart, or if they have you try and cross a line you simply refuse to cross. Just keep close to God and He will tell you what to do.

However, what you can do, is keep in touch with me and I’ll help from the outside. Let me know if Mayor Mendenhall hasn’t pulled the snitch-on-your-neighbor hotline by next week, and I may do another call-to-action and bring not 2-3,000, but 10,000 for another rally/revival. That I promise. It’s unacceptable in America.

I was thinking about it last night, and it hit me; we are blaming the governments right now at all levels, and though it’s true the majority failed us without a plan, I believe ultimately it’s The People’s responsibility for ever allowing the government “control” to begin with.

No, most of us never really understood what a virus like this can do, including every government official we’ve seen try; but it seems none of us understands how our God given rights should be exercised right now. Nobody knows the proper role of government, including the government. Confusion everywhere.

Apathy and lack of engagement in politics is a main reason we are in this mess. Myself included. If we would have been more awake, like we should have been, and on alert like we must be, it never would have happened.

We would have taken all the unconstitutional recommendations with a grain of salt and safely gone to work weeks ago not skipping a beat. And I pray once the next wave of the virus flares up, which it will, we will say NO! And NEVER allow that to happen again.

Again, keep in touch and let me know if and where you need us next, if it comes to that point. God bless you and your family.

Still your brother in blue,

“Time to pay the piper!”

,

I just must…

My FB friend, Richard sent this gem of a comment on my last public thread regarding our taxes going up in Utah… You be the judge on his comments…… No, not the judge of heaven and hell… His comments.

Richard: “…We are a growing state and it’s a great place to live. Time to pay the piper.”

Me: “What does that even mean? Pay the piper? Are you listening to yourself?”

Richard: “Eric Moutsos it means to bear the consequences of an activity one has enjoyed. And we have enjoyed a great well run state. In the end, I don’t trust myself, nor you, nor the everyday citizens to understand tax law or money we need to for the future. I elect people to represent me. These legislators know better than you or I what the future holds, and why we need to update our tax laws. I trust Herbert, and the Republican legislator, more so than I trust a bunch freeloaders who don’t think they owe anything to anyone. If you don’t like it, move to less well run states. Nevada just across the state line Eric, ain’t much taxes there.

Brother Richard,

You don’t “trust yourself” with your own money? I’ve never heard anyone on any planet I’ve visited (Yes, I’ve visited multiple planets talking about taxes) say anything like this, let alone think anything like this. So because you don’t trust yourself with your money, you’re going to trust the government, especially the Utah government? How about I take your money and invest it. I’ll even give you a return.

Do we really need to be taxed because our state is “great”? Does “great” equal just handing over money in your eyes?

Do you even know how much this is going to be? One report I read from David Brader (correct me if I’m wrong) is going to be $315.00 per year, per person increase in expenditures. $1575 for a family of five per year. – 7 years is $11,025 per family. Is this the “piper” you’re talking about?

“I trust Herbert, and the Republican legislators, more so than I trust a bunch of freeloaders who don’t think they owe anything to anyone. If you don’t like it, move to… Nevada…”

Richard, if we continue on this path, we will be Nevada, including having to erect casinos just to sustain life; next, we will travel down the road to become like her neighboring broken and decrepit state of California; where homeless camps, needles, and feces cover the streets. SLC isn’t too far off.

Further, for you to say you trust every “Republican” in Utah is again, why we are headed off a cliff. I hate to be the one to burst your Utah bubble, but the far right and the far left are the EXACT same thing, different cheek to the exact same %$#, and have the EXACT same goals in the end. Which is to grow a stinky and bigger government that truly believe they are smarter with your money, than you are. But, now with comments like yours I see why they continue to get away with it.

One of the reasons why Utah CAN be great is because we started on correct principles of self-sustainment WITHOUT a giant government overshadowing the economy. It grew just fine. However, and again not saying this mean, it’s because of people like you who automatically trust the white shirt and tie, part in the hair, self-serving system we call Utah government today. Yes, there are a FEW “WOK” law makers in Utah, but very very few and far between.

Last, your public comments truly worry me. This is why I’m doing an entire post on them. You, brother, respectfully, are the very reason why the term “Sheeple” is coined and used, especially in the state of Utah. You sir, scare me more than the people in power. Why? Because it’s people like you who give them the power to do whatever they want, whenever they want; sneaky session after sneaky session.

Sincerely,

Eric Moutsos

American Hypocrisy?

, ,

I just got into it with a guy regarding the Iranian attack today on the Iraq base that houses US Troops…

He said: “The US is the most hypocritical country in the world. Every last thing it accuses Iran of it has done and more.”

Really? Every last thing? Like rounding up and killing 6,000 LGBT people, hanging or throwing them off buildings? Like that kind of more? Or 30 years in jail for women who forget to cover their faces with scarfs? That kind of more?

Pretty sure if you live in the US and are a LGBT woman, you’re going to get quickly promoted up the chain of any command, in any company. Not killed.

I don’t know about you, but I truly have a hard time with these people who live in the US and still have this attitude toward the country they live and thrive in. Especially under this administration. Trump has been the only one actually trying to pull more troops home.

Remember, it was Obama who gave Iran billions. He should be the one you guys criticize. Not Trump. It was Iran who attacked and was plotting to attack us, not Trump.

Every move the US makes, you have this weird group of people who seem to only want to find fault with the US and her past. Yes, we have an ugly past with certain administrations; but not all of them. We have done wrong, but we are not evil as a whole. And our intent is peace. I know Trumps is.

These are some of the same people who don’t stand for the pledge, who are anti-war under any circumstances, don’t think Veterans should be thanked, etc etc etc … I wonder what they would have thought when Hitler was steam-rolling across the globe? Oh wait, these people think we are Hitler. Many of them are terrorists sympathizers.

But you know what these people are going to do tonight?

They are going to relax, play with their little iPhones for a few hours, make a few snarky comments on how crappy the US is, cuttle into a cozy warm bed, wake up, take a warm shower, eat great food, crap in a clean toilet while checking social media, and go make more money than most in the world, X10. Over and over and over.

Why?

Partly because we have REAL Americans who put their lives on the line each day, here and abroad, to help keep those freedoms that are afforded to us. That’s the truth. We need a military. And because of how evil the world is, unfortunately we need an even bigger and stronger military that can withstand that evil who want us dead.

And yes, war can be a big financial gain to some. But two things can be true at once; You can have groups who make a lot of money on war, AND at times terrorist thug bullies need removed out of the sandbox. No pun intended.

Now, I’m not the type that wants war. I don’t want to “thump my chest”…And I don’t think war is the only solution. I believe peace is the answer. But peace can’t always happen when one group doesn’t want peace. Peace is not in their plan.

If we didn’t have global thugs who’s only mission was to kill anyone who disagrees with them, this would be a different story. But terrorism is real, and certain battles need to be fought and thugs need to be taken out.

But if you truly believe we, the United States of America are the real global terrorists, guess what, the wall has not been put up yet; walk out, fly out, and get out. If you don’t like what we stand for, leave. Or…..please shut the hell up.

People are saying we are the ones who caused Iran to strike today? Not a chance. Iran had been hitting and hitting; I’d be willing to bet this attack today was already planned, and Trump knew it. Just wait until the dust settles and the story is told. Trump has known these plans for a while now. I believe Trump saved lives and will continue to save more.

If you want to change something, you jump in the President Trump’s shoes. Again, he needs our prayers, not our criticism. Get over yourselves.
