			<title>Monumental Financial Waste</title>
			<link>http://www.scientology-cult.com/thoughtfuls-blog/236-david-miscavige-suppressing-lrh-books.html#comment-999</link>
			<description><![CDATA[The sick thing is, then when you trace "Okay, what happened to the money?" and you find David Miscavige spent $70 million on his own building for 10 people in RTC. A millionaire Scientologist here in Dallas lives in a 900 sq ft home with his wife and daughter and drives an 1993 pickup... He pumps his own water from the ground to save money on water! He lives out in the country to save rent. He's a "millionaire" and is just scraping by because all his money goes into the bottomless pit which in turn funds DM's outrageous extravagances, financial waste and embezzlement. He's got reg'es on him like a deer has got ticks. Sick, sick, sick. This guy was the I/C for the Ideal Org program in Dallas. DM has literally turned the Church into financial vampires. I would not send someone into that scene without a backpack full of wooden stakes.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[RJ, You reminded me that I often would get asked about why we charge so much for "church" services. I had my standard patter about the costs of building rentals, utilities, etc. And I made no bones about staff pay. I always said that staff were here because they believed in the technology and wanted to help improve lives. They really didn't get paid much and they were more like volunteers. That was okay with me and those I was handling. But looking at things in retrospect, all I was doing was justifying DM's corruption. The high prices ended up just benefitting the very few and the introduction of ideal orgs just completely threw staff and public into slavery. I recall multiple emergency FP sessions just prior to and in the year following achieving ideal org status. Sometimes it was over a utiltiy bill, other times the mortgage. I watched senior execs beg public to help, public who already had been ravaged by IAS and building fundraising. Every time this happened, I knew the staff wouldn't get paid, they'd go a little more PTS, get a little more gaunt etc. Public and staff need to open their eyes to the cause and effect of backing DM. His actions affect every Scientologist and staff member on the planet, if not directly, indirectly.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[As you and I know Thoughtful Steve with the internet and such things as POD, that printing books even for public who don't have access to the 'net can be cheaper and more cost effective than it has with the invention of the Gutenberg press, yet it seems Miscavige is stuck in time which is where you'd expect any SP to be! Not only that but hundreds of Ron's lectures can fit on a small flash drive or can be downloaded through iTunes for much cheaper than what Miscavige is asking for a bulky set of CDs! Ironic that with today's technology we can make the tech easily available to anyone who wants it, cheaply and more efficiently than we were able to in the past and yet the man supposedly responsible for the expansion of Scientology is preventing this from occurring!]]></description>

			<title>In 1982 LRH pointed out that prices were too high!</title>
			<link>http://www.scientology-cult.com/thoughtfuls-blog/236-david-miscavige-suppressing-lrh-books.html#comment-987</link>
			<description><![CDATA[Mick Wenlock posted the following on ESMB: It would be worth looking over all the various advices that arose out of the 1982 Int Stat Analysis. There was an advice in there that dealt with the Int GI and was commenting on the usual "one week peak" every month. First of all - and this is a para[censored]rase of course - Hubbard expresses amazement that "284" is still in force. And suggesting that Management needs to find a way to wean the orgs off it - lol. Hubbard points out that the prices are way too high. This is 1982... regges and crew members in the orgs were being commeved, put in conditions, declared for saying exactly that! I was reading this advice in 1984 and this problem had, even then, not been handled. It is hard for me to convey how angry I was when I read this piece of crap advice. My wife was an FSC at the time and regularly, in 1984, got handlings because she thought the prices were too high. As I had I when I was an FSC. Two years after Hubbard had said it, two more dumb years of unhandled prices rises and people were being beaten up about it. Even though they were "right" and management was "wrong" and management knew it. [...] [censored]://www.forum.exscn.net/sh owthread.[censored]?p=18669#post186 69 Anyone else read or knew about that LRH advice on prices being too high?]]></description>

			<title>Trash</title>

			<description><![CDATA[After I wrote my KR to RTC the 16 year old person or brat told me that people that were like me were trash. I said then there are a lot of us and he said he knew. I was proud when I said that. I am not rich and I get upset easily but I am more than I look. They look at all the poor as trash and even those who get upset. I want no part of a group that does so.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Well, this may sound lame but all I can suggest is try it again. DisqusComments is reputable third-party provider I'm trying out. I will check with them to see if there is a known bug. If their service doesn't work out, I'll dump it and go with something else. :-)]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Thank you, thank you, thank you... for this revealing article. You are truly auditing the group engram of the 80s, a decade that due to financial irregularities destroyed the lives of so many dedicated scientologists. Even if the horrible facts make me wanna puke, it is a great relief to understand what was going on behind the curtains. Please, please continue, the TA is moving!]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Thanks -- I work some crazy hours. Someday I'll tell my secret of sleep management. But like Ringo said, "It don't come easy." :-) In fact, I just checked his lyrics. Pretty appropriate: Got to pay your dues if you wanna sing the blues, and you know it don't come easy. You don't have to shout or leap about, You can even play them easy. Forget about the past and all your sorrows, The future won't last, It will soon be over tomorrow. I don't ask for much, I only want trust, And you know it don't come easy. This love of mine keeps growing all the time, And you know it just ain't easy. Open up your heart, let's come together, Use a little love, And we will make it work out better. Got to pay your dues if you wanna sing the blues, And you know it don't come easy. You don't have to shout or leap about, You can even play them easy. Peace, remember peace is how we make it, Here within your reach If you're big enough to take it. I don't ask for much, I only want trust, And you know it don't come easy. And this love of mine keeps growing all the time, And you know it don't come easy.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Steve, Maybe you can help me one more time. I tried to post a comment to Dan's article and went in as a guest poster. All I get is please wait...forever. I couldn't figure out how to set up a user name either so would love some instruction or to at least notify the site that a poster is having trouble posting. This is the second time I have tried to unsuccessful comment on that site. Thanks]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[WOW, I'm impressed with the speed in which you fully answered the question posted on the other blog. It was only posted 7 hours ago and you have already written a full report of why the books are so high and DMs suppression of dissemination. Great data!]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Thanks for pointing that out. I am from Nicaragua. The pro medium YEAR wages are 300DS! It always pissed me to no end the fact that "upstat" was defined as "having a lot", not "doing a lot" A hard worker who works day and night is regarded as "downstat" compared to some kid in USA whose weekly stipend is 50DS even if has not worked a minute in is life! This is a really right indication. Thanks.]]></description>
