At the core of our country rests many millions of these same type of strong-willed independent Americans willing to do any and everything to ensure that their families and communities remain safe and free. And although I still believe America will not be saved until we fight another bloody, violent full-blown civil war at some point in the not too distant future, I do believe that we will see a very large percentage of Her patriots emerge on the other side in victory, still ready to get on with the necessary work to keep the engines of this country humming along strong and sound and get on with the business of working, loving, and livin’ free for all the rest of their days.

A news blurb on back-to-school sales gave me a tough dose of reality the other day. Even though most of the nation is currently in the throes of summer heat and humidity, the truth is that kids will be hitting the books before we know it.
In a previous article about socialism, I outlined the basic reasons why profit-seeking capitalists are essential to the productivity and income of workers and to satisfying the desires of consumers, why increasing government controls over the economy plays into the hands of exploitative corporatist elites, and why socialization of the means of production ultimately requires central planning to coordinate production and preserve a division of labor, which in turn necessitates the evils of totalitarian tyranny in spite of the democratic aspirations of many well-meaning socialists. In brief, ordinary people cannot gain a greater voice and a freer life through curtailment of private ownership; socialism necessarily leads to the mass poverty and mass regimentation of totalitarian tyranny. 
This should surprise no one: 
“You always take care of your men before you take care of yourself.” Fred Behrens lived this truth on every mission he flew until his luck ran out on April 23, 1971.
We, at American Policy Center and numerous other organizations here in the U.S. and other countries (Norway, England and Canada to name a few), have been speaking out against the many ways our countries have been working toward a one-world government. We started only some 30-40 years ago, but others were speaking out well before we woke up.to the destruction planned by those seeking to control the entire globe. One of those was Jo Hindman, who focused on Regionalism. Thankfully, she was on it; she was quite intelligent and was able to explain and expose it. Regretfully, those in power – both in D.C. and in the states – either remained ignorant as to what they were burdening their constituents or liked being in on the power.

They didn’t all disappear at once. Some were renamed, others were folded into broader courses, and many were transformed by technology or pushed aside as schools devoted more time to academic requirements and tested subjects. Traditional shop became engineering or career and technical education. Typing blended into computer literacy. Home economics evolved into family and consumer sciences. Mechanical drafting moved from pencils and T-squares to computer-aided design.
“National security” has become the government’s all-purpose permission slip to behave badly.
The sun was beginning to settle behind the western ridge, when I pulled an old wooden chair out onto the back porch, set my coffee beside me, and leaned back far enough that the chair gave a little groan beneath my weight. I took that as a good sign. A chair that has known you for twenty years and still complains when you sit down is a chair with character, and I have always trusted character more than furniture advertised as “ergonomically engineered.”
We don’t need permission from Silicon Valley or Washington to start thinking for ourselves. The moment we stop outsourcing our minds is when we take back America!
Eight years ago in the summer of 2018, an automated monitoring system at the US government’s Social Security Agency flagged a questionable transaction and immediately forwarded it to a human worker at the agency to investigate.
