We will be analyzing whether the Ambassador is really dead, what the real reason the bad guys did Fukishima, (that is our part 1 tomorrow, so be sure and check it out) and that one may surprise you, and finally how all is tied into the protocols. We have a supporter from overseas who is helping us with that one and hopefully should be ready to go by next week.
Research takes a great deal of time, effort and resistance from the bad guys, as I am sure you can imagine. We cannot do any of this without your help and that is just the simple truth of it. We know times are tough, so please do what you can without hurting yourselves. Thanks for all your support and readership.
Vatic Note: Why is this up? Because it appears the wealth extraction is moving up the food chain, pun intended. LOL This reminds me of the blog we just did on the bogus diamonds in the diamond markets that resulted in massive wealth extraction from the very very wealthy and now we are seeing it in the "middle upper class" with these franchise owners.
So who are the Koch brothers? Why do I say "Satanic Extraction of Wealth....?" Well, just check this out and see for yourselves who these dual Israeli citizens really are, does khazar pagan Satanists ring a bell? They are clearly in on the game.
McDonald's Franchisees Have Some Harsh Words for Headquarters

The franchisor-franchisee relationship can be a heated one, especially when corporate asks the operators to spend more money for one of their initiatives.At McDonald's (MCD), remodeling investments, marketing campaigns and discounting are touchy subjects right now.
Mark Kalinowski, lead restaurant analyst at Janney Capital Markets, spoke with a bunch of McDonald's franchisees to gauge how they felt about what's going on, reports Scott Hume and Burger Business.
The 30 operators Kalinowski spoke with had some pretty strong words:
• "We are bankrupting the system in the name of 'rebranding' the system!"
• "Major Remodel Projects are wiping out our cash flow and our equity."
• "Cash flow is trending up, but not as fast as McDonald's cash flow is."
• "McDonald's Operators cannot absorb all these costs, do all this discounting, and still pay to remodel our landlord's (McDonald's) building."
One franchisee elaborated:
"Commodity increases along with construction project upgrades are draining whatever cash flow we might bring in. The Dollar Menu has limited our ability to cover these costs by raising rest of menu prices. This has created a huge gap between high- and low-end, driving more consumers down to supposed Extra Value Menu items which have no useful upside profit potential.
Next year projected service cost increases (insurance, utilities, tech fees, etc.) are going to be a backbreaker. Just increasing Transaction Counts is not going to work if they are unprofitable ones. We have created a scenario of working harder for less. There needs to be a window of time to just make profits without giving them all back."
