“We should measure welfare’s success by how many people leave welfare, not by how many are added.” – Ronald Reagan

Every day, like vultures circling a fallen prey, they descend upon the centers of political power with their hands outstretched and without a hint of compunction or embarrassment, they beg, lobby, or riot for what they consider to be their “fair” portion of the sweat, blood and tears of those who are successful, self-reliant, responsible and independent. Black, white, tan, red or yellow, these mostly urban beggars and whiners epitomize the Occupy Wall Street crowd that say they aren’t getting their fair share of America’s wealth and demand that those that produce and earn their way, must cough up more in taxes to pay those who won’t work and want something for nothing, using the power of government to get it, in a grand scheme of wealth re-distribution. This “system”, if you can call it that, is socialism by any other name. If they don’t get their way, they resort to violence, property damage and mayhem. This display of “Gimee! Gimee! Gimee!” is disgusting and not worthy of a people who once called themselves free, sovereign and independent. If the Founding Fathers could see us now, they would wonder where they went wrong.

“Far better is it to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure… than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy nor suffer much, because they live in a gray twilight that knows not victory nor defeat.“ – Theodore Roosevelt

In each of us there lies a gland (adrenal) that activates a fight-or-flight response, when we are confronted by danger, provided that is, if a person is cognizant of the danger in the first place. When danger to our own life or a loved one is thrust upon us, this gland injects a hormone (adrenalin) into the blood stream that almost instantly increases the heart rate and breathing rhythm. All of our senses become super charged. In some, this surge of adrenalin triggers instant panic and the person becomes like a deer frozen in the headlights. In others it prepares them to meet any threat with force and energy many times their normal strength. Under these conditions, frail little women have been known to lift a car off a victim.

“People are a great deal like electrons. When they get too close to each other, they are repelled by each other’s negative charge and can never come together, except in times of immense heat and pressure …. like in a Black Hole, or a world war ….. or the rise of tyranny.” – Ron Ewart

When the attack comes, whether foreign or domestic, people that are divided will run in all directions in a panic, just like the people did on the cruise ship that ran aground off the West Coast of Italy a week ago and sent the passengers scurrying in all directions, looking for anyway they could to exit the sinking cruise liner and save their lives. There was no guidance and no plan, there was just pandemonium, an irrational human response that can lead to death.

Americans today, are not much different than the passengers on that stricken ship. We are running in all directions with no guidance and no plan. America is more divided now than it ever was and it will be our un-doing if we allow it to continue. Without a course correction resulting from conservative unification, America will sink deeper into the quicksand of apathy, indifference and wholly desperate ideologies, with no chance of escape.

“WE must protect OUR rural lands.” Stated numerous times by an environmentalist on a radio talk show, in a debate with this author.

That’s right, environmentalists and even those that live in urban areas, have been so brainwashed by the government through education and outright propaganda, that they actually believe that it is OK for government to regulate rural lands with draconian environmental protection ordinances, without regard to the fact that those rural lands are owned by real people and are supposed to be protected by the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution that states in part:

“….. nor shall any person ….. be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.”

Any protection provided to rural landowners from the U. S. Constitution has been so watered down and perverted by U. S. Supreme Court and lower court decisions, as to render the 5th Amendment virtually null and void. International and national environmentalism trumps the Constitution in America, by tens of thousands of local, state and federal laws.

INERTIA: “… is the resistance of any physical object or entity, to a change in its state of motion or rest, or the tendency of an object to resist any change in its motion. The resistance to change is proportional to an object’s mass. The greater the mass the more energy it takes to effect a change in direction or speed. This principle applies to objects as well as to cultures and governments.”

It is estimated to take almost two miles to bring a fully loaded supertanker to a dead stop because of its massive inertia. So that’s right, you can’t stop a supertanker on a dime and you can’t change the direction of a country in one election cycle.

It took more than 100 years to get where we are today. America has been on a pre-ordained suicide course since politicians started buying votes by taking advantage of the people’s ignorance and greed to get something for nothing, as well as the people’s apathy and indifference to what government was doing, as government strayed farther and farther away from constitutional principles. The outcome was totally predictable. A once-free America is broke and in very ill health.

“I fear all we have done is to awaken a sleeping giant and fill him with a terrible resolve.” – Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto, December 7, 1941

The preponderance of recorded history tells us that the sneak attack on Pearl Harbor by the Japanese Imperial Navy and their carrier-based warplanes on December 7, 1941, came without warning and was a total surprise to the American government and the intelligence community. The attack by the 19 Arabian terrorists on September 11, 2001, using commercial airliners as flying bombs, also came as a surprise and the American government and intelligence community were caught flat-footed again, or so we are told. Each of these events changed all American lives forever. The first event triggered a world war and the second event plunged America into the sudden realization that their national and individual security could no longer be taken for granted. But the second event gave the American government an excuse and an opportunity to exchange our liberty for increased security. Sadly, many Americans have just rolled over to this blatant and overt increase in power, without so much as a whimper. Have you been through an airport recently?

“If you are standing and look at the ground, your perspective and your field of view are quite limited. If however, you are standing on the top of a mountain and look straight ahead, your horizons broaden exponentially.” – Ron Ewart

Anachronism: “person or a thing that is chronologically out of place; especially: one from a former age that is incongruous in the present.”

THE PROBLEMS:
Come on people, admit it, you’ve been beaten. Give it up! The international moneychangers, power brokers and politicians have colluded to enslave the masses through manipulating fiat money, the implementation of social justice and environmental protection on a global scale and have so entangled commerce, trade, money and debt between nations, that individual nation sovereignty has all but been dissolved. (Keep your pants on! We’re going somewhere with this.)

“Fools ignore complexity. Pragmatists suffer it. Some can avoid it. Geniuses remove it.” – Alan Perlis

2. To complicate; confuse.

Entanglement – “an intricate trap that entangles or ensnares its victim.”

Ever since the dawn of American civilization, man continues to wrap himself up in complexity. This behavior has all the earmarks of a subconscious death wish. Government writes legislation that is over 2,000 pages (i.e. Obama Care, Dodd-Frank Bill, etc.) . In contrast, some of the largest novels ever written were only about 1,000 pages, single spaced. We have hundreds of bureaucracies, at all levels of government, writing hundreds, if not thousands of pages of rule, after rule, after rule ….. every day! The Constitution is only about 20 pages.

On the international front, we have entangled nation-to-nation Central Banks, the IMF, the WTO, NGO’s and thousands of treaties that further tie civilization up in knots. You can’t move sideways without running into a rule or a law, national or international. Most people are law breakers because of too many laws but they don’t even know it, much less care. These national and international entanglements are slowly obliterating American sovereignty and freedom, right under our noses.

“Nothing could be worse than the fear that one had given up too soon and left one unexpended effort that might have saved the world.” – Jane Addams

Sure, we know ….. Americans are really up against it these days, with a plethora of difficult problems. The world elite (ruling class) are controlling the global money supply and the world economy and trying to drive us all into a new world order against our will. Our Federal Reserve is neither Federal nor a reserve and is owned and operated by private individuals who could be and probably are foreign nationals and may not have and probably don’t have America’s best interests at heart.
