Conspiracy theorists Alex Jones and Webster Tarpley show their ignorance when discuss the Westminster system of government and the British Monarchy.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4b51LMBxQIo
Alex Jones makes a big deal about the Queen being Canadas Head of State, not seeming to realise that in Parliamentary systems of government the Head of State and Head of Government are separate. It is the Prime Minister, not the Queen, who holds all executive power.
Jones also appears to be under the impression that Stephen Harpers Conservative party lost the October 2008 Canadian federal election. In fact the Conservatives won the election, increased its vote share and number of seats in the House of Commons. Jones states Harpers party is the minority party when in fact it was the biggest party in parliament, it just didnt have an overall majority.

Jones frequently refers to a Reuters article as evidence that the Queen has suspended Parliament. However the article in question does not say that, the headline he quotes and shows to camera clearly says Canadian PM wins suspension of Parliament.

Jones then introduces Webster Tarpley who is described as an expert on the British system of government and the Commonwealth of Nations. However Tarpley doesnt seem to know how many countries are in the Commonwealth (he says there are over 70 countries when there are only 53, he says Queen Elizabeth II is the Head of States of all of them, when its only 16). Most startling for someone described as an expert, Tarpley thinks Governor General Michaëlle Jean is a man, when she a woman.
Although the article he talks about states Parliament was prorogated at the request of the Prime Minister, Tarpley says that Governor General has the most power, because [s]he is the one who suspended Parliament. It may be the Governor General who actually did the act but she wouldnt have been able to do so without the Prime Ministers explicit instructions.
Tarpley states two examples to try and show that the Queen and Governor General have the real power. First he says the Queen appointed new senators to vote the way she wanted in the North American Free Trade Agreement debate – yet again, Tarpley gets it wrong. Appointments to the Canadian Senate are only ever made by the monarch on prime ministerial advice. Also, it wasnt the NAFTA debate where new senators were appointed it was the Goods and Services Tax debate and it was Prime Minister Brian Mulroney who wanted the new appointments not the Queen.
The other example stated by Tarpley is The Dismissal, which was a constitutional crisis in 1975 Australia where the Prime Minister, Gough Whitlam, was removed by Governor-General Sir John Kerr. Tarpley suggests that this was all the work of the Queen, he gives no evidence of this, in reality the Queen kept out of the situation and the Governor-General who was surrounded in controversy.
Tarpley dramatically over simplifies what happened. Without wanting to do that same, one of the key things to note is that Tarpley does not mention that the Whitlam Government was accused of attempting to illegally borrow money from Middle Eastern countries, bypassing standard procedure as dictated by the Australian Treasury. It had nothing to do with London and New York as Tarpley suggests. Also the government was dismissed by the Governor-General who did not consult the Queen. In fact the Queen released a statement at the time saying the only person competent to commission an Australian Prime Minister is the Governor-General, and The Queen has no part in the decisions which the Governor-General must take in accordance with the Constitution.

Alex Jones continues to make several historical errors, not just about the British Monarchy but also basic history of the United States. Jones states that the House of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha was on the British thrown during the time of the American War of Independence. This is wrong; it was the House of Hanover at the time. The House of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha only came to the British thrown after Queen Victoria married Albert of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha and their son became King in 1901, 125 years after the United States declared independence.

Jones also says that the Thirteen Colonies rebelled against Britain because King George III tried to removed the colonists weapons. In reality the war stated because the colonists rejected the right of the Parliament of Great Britain to govern them without representation.
I literally laughed out loud when Jones said how important it was to know history, I only hope he and Webster Tarpley take that advice soon.

I am thinking about switching to MIS from Finance because there are no jobs in Finance.
However, I heard MIS is a risky job because computers are constantly changing and I will get fired for new, younger people once a new program comes out?
Do I have to constantly study even after graduating to have a carreer in MIS??
Yes, and No.
Yes, it’s a terrible major. It is a scam to attract as much people as possible from the business and computer careers in order to make money. You spend more time studying business. The computer courses are way too general to the point where you learn nothing and not marketable. Most MIS majors do not work in the field of computers. If they do, it’s because they learned computing elsewhere. No company is impressed with MIS, really.
No, it can be a good major. It looks good on your resume. If you’re already good with computers and know how to get into the computing field already, then it looks good on paper. You can become a manager and can say you have a business degree. You can work in the computing field, and say you have computing degree.
MIS is good for people who can get into the computing industry without the degree because it looks good on paper. If you expect to learn something and believe it will get you a job….forget it!!!
For me, after i graduated, I couldn’t get a job expect customers service for software company…and anybody can get that job, even a liberal arts major. I went to a tech school afterwards (which is also a scam, but at least it points me in the right direction). Got Comptia A+ and Network + Certified. Worked in IT Help desk. From there you can work up to be a System Admin or Network Administrator.
