The Death of a Nation

While researching for a posting, I came across an article entitled "How To Destroy A Nation". I would like to share some of the highlights of that article with you today. I would ask that as you read the methods given to destroying a nation, that you seriously consider America and where we stand today.

The article began with the question "If I were given the power to take down a nation, how would I do it?"

A giant step to bringing down a nation would be to "control the monetary system". Tax the population and continue to increase the taxes. Refuse to control the national debt, continuing to amass greater and greater debt. Institute and implement a myriad of programs providing "handouts". Shut down manufacturing plants, mills and shops...sending them overseas where the labor rates are pennies compared to the US wages. Allow foreign workers to continue to immigrate taking American jobs at one third of the wages.

Ensure that all major decision making is moved to the executive branch, where Presidential Directives and Executive Orders will be utilized. Pit the American worker against the immigrants, creating as much hatred and chaos as possible.

Limit and control any choices in"voting", keeping the field limited to a two party system, where only the "wealthy" need apply. Each party will be controlled and given scripted points to talk about, avoiding the real issues facing Americans, as much as possible. Maintain a pretense of a representative democracy.

Set up an Education Department that will dictate insane mandates, policies and regulations to "dumb down" our future generations. A dumb population after all, is an easily controlled population. Allow the country to become awash with drugs that are mind-numbing and filled with brain destroying chemicals.

Allow the HMO's, Pharmaceuticals and Insurance companies to destroy what was once an "affordable" medical system. Make retirement an impossibility for seniors and those with fixed incomes and pensions.

Institute perpetual war, having to borrow billions for destruction.

America, where do we stand today? Waco, Ruby Ridge, school shootings, roadblocks, identity theft and security cameras. Limit or totally prevent information and discussion on all sides of an issue. Corporate control of all media is a necessity, if Americans are to be taught what to think---not how to think.

Trade agreements will lead to massive unemployment, farms that have died, imported food, foreclosures and homelessness.

Give away the land, rivers, waterways, roads, schools, and utilities to foreign investors. Keep the people distracted with amusement parks, ball games, shopping malls, expensive cars, OJ, Paris Hilton, and Rosie O'Donnell.

A must--all authority must rest in the hands of corporate interests. The few who do object will be labeled as "conspirators, un-American, and traitors". This is how I would destroy a nation.

Again, as when I began this posting, I would ask that you seriously consider America and where she stands today. I was unable to find the author's name of the above article, but they were able to just in a few pages provide a means of taking down a nation. As I read through the article, I realized how far America has gone in the wrong directions. I would ask today, that you join me and say enough is enough, as we hold our leaders accountable and make whatever corrections are required. I still believe we live in the greatest country on earth, and I for one, refuse to just sit back without fighting for our freedoms and our home. God bless you today, and God bless the United States of America.

The View From Here On National Security

I am sure that you and I might be able to argue over wars in foreign lands, but domestic tranquility as Americans is our birthright. The preamble of our Constitution lays it out for us. I believe most Americans still find it hard to comprehend a war within our own borders, even after September 11, 2001. The American people have truly been blessed in regards to war in our own country, and we should never take that blessing for granted. It, however, is still an imminent threat and a threat we as a country must be proactive in identifying and combating. I return again to my previous post, stating first and foremost we must, without exception, secure our borders.

I believe we not only have come to the place where we tolerate illegal aliens in our country, but that we also encourage them. The State of Tennessee, in 2001, passed a law allowing illegal aliens to obtain a driver's license without a valid Social Security Number. The driver's license stations all across the state were swamped with illegal aliens from across the country. The state, under pressure from the Department of Homeland Security, set up "driving certificates" for illegal aliens. Later, in 2007, the state legislature of Tennessee voted to abandon the issuing of driving certificates altogether for illegals. Only one example of what began as an "encouragement" for illegal aliens.

John Lee Malvo, was the young accomplice in the D.C. Sniper murders. Mr. Malvo was a Jamaican who had stowed away on a cargo ship. Stowaways, in accordance with U.S. law, are to be immediately deported and without a hearing. Do not pass go, do not collect $200, go immediately back to your country. Mr. Malvo was arrested on Dec. 19, 2001, only 3 months after the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Centers, and the Pentagon. Again, under U.S. law, Mr. Malvo should have been immediately deported. He was released, however, under his own recognizance. It was then, that he joined with Mr. John Allen Muhammed who was the D.C. sniper. One of the greatest benefits, of the screening process, for anyone seeking a visa into our country is to prevent the entry of known criminals.

We must secure our borders, and begin to do so immediately. If we are to maintain our National Security, this must be a task at the top of our priority list. My friends, if you and I are not safe within our own borders, then we simply are not free. I agree with others that the sensible thing to do is to place our military at our borders, and allow them to enforce our border laws. I know, I can already hear all of you who are saying that would be the military performing a domestic law enforcement activity, which is to be prevented. Somehow, I don't see the repelling of foreign invaders, as engagement in what is considered a domestic law enforcement activity. I believe our purpose would be the protection of our country from the "outside" forces, who illegally try to enter our country. The truth, our military was formed and designed to defend and protect the American people. I am a veteran and I remember the oath I was sworn to in regards to defending my country. I was sworn to defend my country against all enemies foreign and domestic. Illegal immigration is one of the greatest threats to the United States, and we need to stop making excuses and immediately begin protecting ourselves. If we are to maintain National Security, it will begin with securing our borders and controlling illegal immigrants.
