As I watch the events unfold in this nation I am can't help but feel hopeless in the face of an omnipotent enemy. The social, economic, educational and political pressures weighing down on me at time seem to push my limitations. Lately I have been feeling more optimistic due to the internet being abundant in fellow Americans that not only feel similar to me but are doing something about it. I have often wondered what I could do as an individual to help in the cause of creating a just and philanthropistic government. I tried contacting my representative who managed to phone dodge me 5 times before I had to leave a message with his secretary. I tried writting blogs in the issues but very few people read them, it seems our liberties are not as important as bashing others for their personal beliefs. I am not going to stop writting about the real issues that conveniently get skipped in most mega-media instruments with hidden agendas and strong political ties. I simply educate myself via the internet and the hardwork of the too numerous to list alternitive media sites. The objective is to be critical of these websites the same way we should be with our government, make your own logical deduction through the facts, not propaganda.
One of the articles I found at www.blacklistednews.com I have included as part of this blog. I am an economics student and the part of the article that caught my attention was concerning the market crash. Here is the former Chief Economist of the World Bank, Columbia University Proffessor and 2001 Nobel Peace Prize winner telling us that the entire world market will collapse with in the next 24 months. He is not the only one saying that, there are numerous websites dedicated to the truth of the Federal Reserve or see one of my earlier blogs. I know that he is merely suggesting a prediction but you have to admit his credentials are serious. Also take note to what Congressman Ron Paul says about the global elite attempting to get their hands on as many liquid assets as possible to later purchase all the wiped out industries and nations. This is scary stuff, the middle class does seem to be dissapearing and the gap of wealth distribution is widening at an alarming rate?
I'm sorry democrats but things aren't going to change now that you have a majority. As we have already seen you care not about the corrupted elections as long as you get into office. How about getting rid of the Patriot Act or the Military Commissions Act? No, I think we will see continued attacks on our Bill of Rights until we educate ourselves and no longer allow this hypocritical legislation to pass. The only way the Patriot Act will get canned is with the help of the Supreme Court, yes the same one that had 4 cases to determine if African Americans were human beings. Still it is our last chance for these acts to be declaired unconstitutional and thrown out in the trash were they belong. I can't say it any better than Congressman Ron Paul(R) of Texas, "We might have to hope that our Supreme Court helps us out a little. The Court has been better than the executive branch and a heck of a lot better than the Congress, because we've given the President everything he's asked for and the President has been begging for all this authority, so immediately we have to hope that the courts will save us on some of these things. But once again ultimately its only when the people wake up and say they don't like this... sometimes the people wake up to late. Right now we don't have concentration camps, but like you have pointed out, the authority has been given so that concentration camps can come without Habeas Corpus . I have heard the argument that there is nothing else left in the Bill of Rights. If they can lock you up, what good is freedom of speech or what good is a gun? That is now part of the books, part of the law."
Re-elected Texas Republican Congressman Ron Paul joined Alex Jones on air last week to discuss the fallout of the midterm elections and what he sees transpiring over the next two years. He ended by ominously warning that if something is not done soon to overturn legislation such as the Military Commissions act, the law officially allows for citizen concentration camp facilities.
Beginning with the positives to come out of the election, Ron Paul stressed that it has provided an important indication to the rest of the world that the people of America are unhappy with the usurpers that have seized control of their government and are trying to initiate change. The Congressman was quick to point out that this may not be carried into policy however:
"Not a whole lot will change because the leadership on the Democratic side, even if they had their way, don't have a different foreign policy. They have been supportive of an interventionist foreign policy in the middle east, and they are not about to back away from that... They are willing to criticize the policy but only as a means to get power."
As we have seen over the past week, leading Democrats are all towing the party line, unreservedly dismissing any notion of the possibility of impeaching the President over Iraq.
The Congressman also stated that monetary policy will stay the same, which can only mean bad news for the American economy.
" They all believe in the federal reserve, they are not going to get rid of the IRS and the income tax. I think the dollar is going to keep sliding, which means prices are going to rise, when currencies self destruct, the end goes quickly. There are no signs that there is anything being done in Washington to correct the problem. Spending is going to continue and probably going to get worse, the deficits are going to stay high if foreign policy is not going to change."
The Congressman agreed that the elite globalists within the US government may not care about this too much because it means they can blow out the economy and then come back and buy it up very cheaply. These Internationalists care not about preserving and protecting American sovereignty when there is a quick buck to be made.
"That's also part of the foreign policy to be in position to hold onto natural resources, that's one of the major reasons why we're in the middle east, so yes if there is a financial crisis, they're going to have the guns, and they have control of the natural resources... It's not a good scenario, because what usually happens when you wipe out a currency is that you wipe out the middle class, and we already see this happening. The standard of living is going down." Paul asserted.
Ron Paul's comments echo those of Former World Bank Vice President, Chief Economist and Nobel Prize winner Joseph Stiglitz, who two weeks ago predicted a global economic crash within 24 months - unless the current downturn is successfully managed. Asked if the situation was being properly handled Stiglitz emphatically responded "no," and also drew ominous parallels to the development of the NAFTA Superhighway and the North American Union.
What real Conservatism there was left in the House, to block such moves, as well as Bush's amnesty program for illegals, is gone. With Pelosi at the helm Ron Paul sees it as a forgone conclusion that such policies will sail through.
"I think that's right, although I complain about the two parties being exactly alike, I would say on this amnesty issue and what's happened with the election, there probably was a difference between the two. It is more likely with the Democrats in charge, and Judiciary and the other major committees, and with the President not really fighting for our national borders, he's always argued for some type of worker program, yes I think there's a much greater danger that that is going to be coming in the next session."
Commenting on strategies to defeat the North American Union, the Congressman urged a continuance of educating people on the real issues and reaching more and more Americans who care about preserving their national sovereignty:
"You have to keep doing what you are doing, you are reaching a lot of people, and they have to get to their members of congress, and in many ways the current House has been pretty good with this. With the new House we don't know exactly what is going to happen, but I had something very encouraging come to my attention just this week. I had a call from a young lady that won in Kansas as a Democrat, and in her literature she put my whole article on the NAFTA super corridor in there... She is not going to vote with Nancy Pelosi."
Finally, and perhaps most importantly, The Congressman spoke on the issue of going about demanding a repeal of freedom crushing legislation such as the Patriot act and the Military Commissions act and the Defense Authorization Act which essentially wipes out Habeas Corpus.
"We might have to hope that our Supreme Court helps us out a little. The Court has been better than the executive branch and a heck of a lot better than the Congress, because we've given the President everything he's asked for and the President has been begging for all this authority, so immediately we have to hope that the courts will save us on some of these things. But once again ultimately its only when the people wake up and say they don't like this... sometimes the people wake up to late. Right now we don't have concentration camps, but like you have pointed out, the authority has been given so that concentration camps can come without Habeas Corpus . I have heard the argument that there is nothing else left in the Bill of Rights. If they can lock you up, what good is freedom of speech or what good is a gun? That is now part of the books, part of the law."
Take Ron Paul's suggestion up and contact your new or re-elected members and demand a move to repeal legislation paving the way for fascist government control in America today.
