The Fall Of The United States - The United Nations

Opinion by Martin

One night I had a dream.  It was a dream about a powerful nation that had been conceived in Liberty and built on the ideal that, if a person worked hard enough, you could succeed.  Then I woke up.

I found the dream was broken.  It was broken by Big Politics, Big Unions, and Big Businesses, but mainly by the greed of the government, at all levels.  And the United Nations.

On October 21, 1945, a war-weary world brought forth a new organization, created by the victorious powers of World War II, which was supposed to become a world body to prevent wars by discussing international difficulties and regional disputes allowing differences to be resolved without the necessity of resorting to hostilities.

That organization has become a giant corrupt bureaucracy with tentacles throughout the world reaching into the sovereignty of all nations, laced with anti-Semitism and anti-Americanism.
That organization has the desire to become the governing body for the entire world.
That organization, created out of the desire to build an organization that would bring Peace and Prosperity to the peoples of the many nations, wishes to be King. 

That organization is the United Nations.

From an innocuous in 1945 to the present, the United Nations has supported despots and tyrants to the detriment of freedom-loving people throughout the world.  The United States taxpayer provides well over 30% of the money that the U.N. spends and gets nothing in return except “you should give more”. 
Most of the “Peacekeeping” missions around the world, especially in Africa, are populated by thugs, rapists, and murderers.  The U.N. has never won a war, and even the Korean 'Conflict', in which the U.S. alone lost over 53,000 men, has not seen a complete resolution. 
The U.N. went to Kosovo and wound up with the United States, Britain and France spending most of the money and lives while the U.N. took credit for any successes and denied mistakes when things went wrong.
Haiti is another example of UN ineptitude.  The poorest nation in the Western Hemisphere and the UN can’t seem to help get it straightened out.  The US alone has spent nearly a trillion dollars over the years only to see that money squandered by dictators and UN contractors who have wasted most of it on excellent lifestyles as Haitians starve and remain downtrodden.  The UN has virtually nothing that they can point to as successful.  Even the UN Building in New York City is crumbling and the UN expects the US Taxpayer to rebuild it.

The United Nations is a symbol of an absolute waste of US Taxpayer’s money.  It is filled with spies and “diplomats” who know that if they were in their own countries, their lives would be completely different, and they would not have the lifestyle that they have on US soil.

Now, in 2011 and 2012, the United Nations is coming after you and your Rights as spelled out in the Constitution of The United States.  Part of this assault is in the form of the “Small Arms Treaty” which will require you as a Citizen of the United States to surrender any weapons that you own and depend upon the government to protect you in your home.  The Obama Administration is joining 152 other countries to attack American sovereignty by stripping Americans of the right to keep and bear arms.  Anti-gun groups are scripting language for the conference this year, creating a blueprint for other countries to follow when they meet at the full conference. 

For you, the American Citizen, the stakes couldn’t be higher.
The really sad part is Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, a serious enemy of Constitutional Rights, has already indicated that the Obama Administration will sign the treaty whether or not the Senate ratifies it.   Clinton has pledged to push the U.S. Senate to ratify the treaty.  She will push for passage of a treaty that is designed to register, ban and CONFISCATE firearms owned by private citizens like YOU, depriving you of the Right to defend your home and family from criminals who most likely will not pay any attention to the “Small Arms Treaty” anyway. 
You can be certain that the treaty is going to address private ownership of firearms.  Don’t let any of the “experts” lull you to sleep by saying “Oh, we have it handled” or “Until you know exactly what’s in the treaty you can’t fight against it.”  So, YOU, as an American Citizen, must fight back.  You must write or email your U.S. Senators and DEMAND that they vote AGAINST ratification of the UN’s “Small Arms Treaty”.  One letter or email is not enough; you must continue to “bombard” the Senate continually until this assault on Our Rights is defeated.
If passed by the UN and ratified by the U.S. Senate (where we must ultimately make our stand), the UN “Small Arms Treaty” would almost certainly FORCE national governments to:
Enact tougher licensing requirements, making law-abiding citizens cut through even more bureaucratic red tape just to own a firearm legally;
CONFISCATE and DESTROY ALL “unauthorized” civilian firearms (all firearms owned by the government are excluded, of course);
BAN the trade, sale and private ownership of ALL semi-automatic weapons;
Create an INTERNATIONAL gun registry, setting the stage for full-scale gun CONFISCATION.
 So please write your U.S. Senators before it’s too late!  As you can see, this is NOT a fight we can afford to lose.
The “Small Arms Treaty” is one of the many “plans” and “agendas” that are coming out of the UN.  There are plans to deprive you of many of the Rights that you enjoy under the Constitution of The United States.  Agenda 21 is another assault on your Rights and will be addressed in a future opinion piece.
At its inception, the United Nations was a flawed idea that should have gone the way of the League of Nations and the Dodo.  It has gone completely awry and should be ended once and for all.  The leadership has come to believe that they should govern the entire world to the detriment of individual Rights. 

I say that we pack up this entire gang of thieves and dictators.  Send them back to their homelands.

THE FALL OF THE UNITED STATES - The Entitlement Generation

Opinion by Martin

One night I had a dream.  It was a dream about a powerful nation that had been conceived in Liberty and built on the ideal that, if a person worked hard enough, you could succeed.  Then I woke up.

I found that the dream was broken.  It was broken by Big Politics, Big Unions, and Big Businesses, but mainly by the greed of the government, at all levels and, The Entitlement Generation.

We have passed September 11, 2010 without any significant attacks by the “external” enemies of the United States.  There were two special elections on Tuesday, September 13, one in New York and one in Nevada showing that the people are no longer enchanted with Obama.  The only people still supporting him are the “brain-dead zombies” who want to suckle from the public teat a bit longer.
What will happen when the public spigot is shut off because there is no more money? 
Will we have rioting in the streets by the “Entitled Class” ala England? 
Will there be “no go” zones for police and fire officials, similar to those throughout Europe? 

To be honest, these are extreme examples.  The English rioting was fomented by the death of a petty criminal at the hands of the police and was used by anarchists to attack the English Government and its welfare system.  The second is due to the lack of assimilation into national cultures throughout Europe by immigrants from the Middle East, legal and illegal who have created their own enclaves within great cities of France, England, Holland, and Germany, among others.  Could we see this type of activity here in the United States?

The answer:  Absolutely!!

As I have explained before, in previous opinions, the United States has developed an “Entitlement Class” that has evolved since the Depression-era programs of Franklin Roosevelt and grown larger through the succeeding generations of politicians as they attempt to buy votes and retain their grasp on office.  To begin with, you must understand the definition of Entitlement.
An Entitlement is a conditioned state of mind where the recipient believe that he/she has a Right to certain benefits provided by the State because of either a Public Law or Contract.  This could be a government program that provides funds to the Elderly (Social Security or Medicare) or to the Poor (Welfare and Medicaid) as well as a belief that one is deserving of, or entitled to, certain privileges ( both of the above and including Congress? the President?) that others don’t receive but are expected to pay.

And therein, lies the rub. 

In the United States and other countries around the world, most citizens are beginning to understand that the money to continue these Entitlements as presently formatted is just not available and that changes must take place.  The burning question is how to make the changes while continuing the contracts already in place?   

Some of the alternatives to Social Security and Medicare have included maintaining the present systems for today’s recipients while allowing upcoming generations to build personal retirement and health programs as an alternative.  Opponents fear, that would take too much money out of the coffers and there would have to be cuts to the amount paid to present recipients, which in some cases would be devastating, or less paid to people who are on the verge of retirement.  And besides, it would take control of these programs away from the bureaucrats which is their greatest fear.

And then, you have Welfare and Medicaid!
During the 1960s, the Federal Government in a misguided attempt to help people, Black and White, who were living in what passes for extreme poverty in the United States created a Social System known as Welfare which was to be used to help the poor move up in the social system and out of “the cellar” as it were.  This has backfired tremendously, in that it has created another layer of dependency, destroyed families, and trained several generations of citizens that you cannot be expected to succeed on your own, so the benevolent Government will provide for your needs.  And this now includes illegal aliens who have been added to the system by politicians wanting votes.

The real travesty is that none of the above includes the “unfunded mandates” that the Federal Government has placed on the many States, forcing them to assume part of the financing for this misguided system of dependency when the States are unable to pay their own bills due to their own stupidity by funding programs at the local level in attempt to retain power.  I have a plan to repair all of this damage which I will discuss in future opinion pieces.

So now, we have the cretins in the streets demanding that people who succeed in the United States be “re-educated” or executed.  They are demanding free “everything” while not having to contribute to the process.  This is the Entitlement Generation at its finest.  Now WE have to take our Country back and put Lady Liberty back on the proper course to Freedom once again

One night I had a dream.  It was a dream about a powerful nation that had been conceived in Liberty and built on the ideal that, if a person worked hard enough, you could succeed.  Then I woke up.

I found that the dream was broken.  It was broken by Big Politics, Big Unions, and Big Businesses, but mainly by the greed of the government, at all levels and, The Entitlement Generation. 

But it can be fixed!  YOU can fix it if YOU wish by registering to vote.  By voting and then by continuing to review the work done by those who work for you.  This is a Representative Democracy.  It is run through the Ballot Box, not by mobs in the streets and not by Special Interest Groups with deep pockets.  YOU hold the keys to the kingdom.  Those keys are not YOURS to surrender!

THE FALL OF THE UNITED STATES - Political Correctness

Opinion by Martin

One night I had a dream.  It was a dream about a powerful nation that had been conceived in Liberty and built on the ideal that, if a person worked hard enough, you could succeed.  Then I woke up.

I found the dream was broken.  It was broken by Big Politics, Big Unions, and Big Businesses, but mainly by the greed of the government, at all levels, and Political Correctness.

The disease of Political Correctness started rearing its ugly head when I was a child.  It started by telling children that you could not call someone a name because that name would hurt the other person’s feelings.  It was started by school districts hiring “psychologists” who came up with terms like “being socially acceptable” and “peer pressure”.  Both of these terms have always been around and were understood, especially by the children who realize that in order to get along, you sometimes had to fight Johnny after school.  If you won, you won.  If you didn’t, there was always tomorrow and you got over it.  Children always keep score at a sports event even if the coaches and teachers don’t want Team A to beat Team B too badly because it will damage the loser’s self-esteem.  Well, guess what?  The only losers are the coaches and teachers because they are trying to teach the children that everything in the world is equal and all you have to do demand your “rights” and they will be given to you.  Nothing can be further from the truth.  Life is a series of success and failure; mistakes and triumphs.  You don’t always get the “Brass Ring on the merry-go-round”.

Your parents should have taught you that people are individuals, not part of a herd, and should be accepted as they are with all of their faults.  Each day of our lives brings us in contact with people who have personal and physical traits that may not fit our outlook on life.  This does not mean that they do not have the right to live their own lives/life-styles.  Conversely, other people have not right to attempt to force their life-styles on you.  I could go on for pages with attempts by individuals, religions, organizations, and governments to try to tell you that if YOU don’t accept their life-style, behavior, or religious path, you are a “bigot” or (fill in the blank)-phobic.

When I was a child, rode my bike and happened to crash, my parents didn’t get a lawyer and sue the bicycle manufacturer.  They told me, as they cleaned my scrapes, that the next time I would learn to be more careful. 

I am not a Doctor of any type, but I feel that the disease of Political Correctness can only be treated through the reorganization of society.  For example, take responsibility for your own actions and don’t try to blame the other person, the situation, or your predecessor on the job.
You may not always succeed in a venture, but that doesn’t mean you give up.  You regroup and try again

But today, due to the disease of political correctness, you have to watch what you say so as not to upset a listener, no matter how casual.  In England, a karaoke singer in a nightclub was arrested for singing “Kung Fu Fighter” because two Chinese who happened to by passing by on the street, heard him singing, and felt that it was insensitive.  It may have been that he really was a terrible singer and was “killing” the song, or the two passersby were just hyper-sensitive and reacted stupidly.  No matter, the singer was fined and told to be more cautious about his surroundings.

Today, if you attempt to teach your children respect for others, there is a distinct possibility that they will be ridiculed.  A woman will most likely use profanity toward a man who opens a door for her instead of saying “Thank you” and if you question your child’s teacher’s methods, you may be turned in as an unfit parent.

Can you imagine what this Nation would be like if the Pilgrims had returned to Europe when they ran into their first storm at sea?  Or the Pioneers had turned back when they got to the first big obstacle like a river to cross?  Or the Founding Fathers decided that the Colonies would be better off to live under the King’s Rule rather than “pledging their Lives, Honor, and Fortunes” to write the Declaration of Independence and Constitution? 

Today, the Grand Experiment is threatened from within. 

Threatened by people who have forgotten, or don’t care, what built this Great Country.  What it took to move away from the Eastern Seaboard that started out as a group of disparate Colonies, to become a Nation; span a continent, building railroads, cities and farms; then reaching out for the stars, venturing once again into the unknown.

Threatened by people who have a dark vision for the United States, to destroy YOUR individualism, to kill YOUR aspiration and desire; to wipe out YOUR success, yet demanding that that YOU pay for their dark vision by being stripped of YOUR success and dreams.

YOU know how to respect others.  YOU don’t have to be told by unappointed “Guardians of Political Correctness” how to help those in need, those who are less fortunate by circumstance or choice.  YOU don’t need to have legislation passed by people that YOU elected telling you how much money is needed for the “Common Good”.  YOU know these things because your parents taught you, because YOU went to church, because YOU have read and understood the Declaration of Independence, The Constitution, and The Bill of Rights.  YOU understand as our Founders did that God has given us certain inalienable Rights.  Now the minions of the Left, the Barack Obama’s and George Soros’ of the world, these people who absolutely hate everything that this Nation stands for are using the very pillars of our system to destroy us, to make us into a Third World nation of slaves.

This is still a Free Nation.  YOU still have the chance to turn this process of destruction around, to return us to the Vision of Our Founders.  YOU have the ability to build on what They saw as opportunity and once again, turn back the Darkness that threatens us. 

This is still a Free Nation.  Today YOU must reach out to your family, friends and neighbors across this Land and work together to stop this cancer that is threatening us.  To remove the tumor that started as Political Correctness and evolved into a hydra-headed monster that is devouring YOUR home.

Political Correctness is destroying our Nation, our Way of Life, and allowing our enemies to win the War on Terror.

Today YOU must take the stand!  Tomorrow is too late!   

GOD BLESS AMERICA!!

THE FALL OF THE UNITED STATES - TODAY, October 7, 2011

Opinion by Martin

One night I had a dream.  It was a dream about a powerful nation that had been conceived in Liberty and built on the ideal that, if a person worked hard enough, you could succeed.  Then I woke up.

I found the dream was broken.  It was broken by Big Politics, Big Unions, and Big Businesses, but mainly by the greed of the government, at all levels.

Today, we have a supposedly “unorganized” protest that attempting to overwhelm the capability of the financial and legal system to properly operate.  These “protesters” have decided that THEIR Rights to whine and receive “freebies” are more important that YOUR Rights to work, earn money, pay your bills and succeed in life.  And now, they are being supported by the community activist Obama and his union thugs against the system that built the United States.    

Today, we have the “Occupy Wall Street” whiners who are demanding increased participation in their lives by the Government even as many of us want a smaller government to stays out of our lives.  They want Free College Education, a living wage even if unemployed, and complete medical coverage.  The interesting part of this is they want all taxpayers to pay for these benefits although some feel that Entrepreneurs (Wealthy) should be sent to “re-education camps” or executed if they don’t pay their “Fair Share”.  The question is actually three-fold.  Part One: where did these people come from who are demanding all the “freebies”, and Part Two: who do they think actually pays the tab?  Which brings us to the Third Part of the question, do they really even care?  I dare say that they don’t.  The majority of these “protesters” don’t even know why they are protesting.

As I mentioned in a previous opinion piece, our parents and grandparents have unwittingly sewn the destruction of the United States.  Every one of our enemies throughout the years are now camped alongside the parasites in New York attempting bring down Wall Street and World Finances.  Adolph Hitler, Joseph Stalin, Chairman Mao and others who occupy the pages of history are marching in the streets providing moral support to the communists, unions, and Democrat Party activists who are taking advantage of the fact the YOU have not paid attention to YOUR Rights under the Constitution.  That YOU did not participate in what YOUR child was being taught in school.  

These people are demanding “Freedom” while striving to take away yours!!!  These people are demanding that you give them “Freebies” while taking away your right to make a living.    
 
Now, more than ever, YOUR NATION NEEDS YOU!!  Participate in your children’s schools!  Register to Vote, AND actually VOTE!  Talk with your friends and neighbors about local and national issues because everything that happens within the Country will eventually affect you and your family.

Now, more than ever, YOUR Representatives need to know you how YOU stand on the issues facing this Nation.  If the “protesters” at “Occupy Whatever” realize that the majority of the People of the United States DO NOT support their actions, they will retreat back into the shadows and cellars along with the political demagogues of the past.  The systems that were Socialism and Communism have already been proven failures wherever installed and tried, but there are those who believe the only path to a “One World Government” is equal poverty for all throughout bankrupting the financial systems of all nations.   

This is our Nation, and it is up to us (YOU and ME) to maintain its viability in the face of political anarchy.  This does not mean you have to be cruel, or arrogant, or be stingy toward others.  Like a marriage you have to work out differences and move forward as a People and as a Nation, These United States of America.

THE FALL OF THE UNITED STATES - The Fall of The Dream, Part Two

Opinion by Martin

One night I had a dream.  It was a dream about a powerful nation that had been conceived in Liberty and built on the ideal that, if a person worked hard enough, you could succeed.  Then I woke up.

I found the dream was broken.  It was broken by Big Politics, Big Unions, and Big Businesses, but mainly by the greed of the government, at all levels.

To anyone who has read The Federalist Papers, The Declaration of Independence, or The Constitution, I recommend that you read them again and try to understand why these documents were written and what they mean.  There are too many people, elected and appointed officials as well as average citizens, who don’t understand the meaning of these documents and others who don’t want you to read them so you will not know what you are losing as they tear these papers into shreds and take away your freedoms.  Anyone who has not read any of the above, I suggest you do before they become unavailable to you.  And the way our “government” is leading us, I fear they will disappear to the ordinary citizen.

Little by little, the Federal Government has gotten into your personal life, giving you crumbs while taking loaves of bread.  This covers both the Republican and Democrat Parties as presently constituted.

The Founders had a dream that they could build a nation to withstand the test of time, beyond the control of petit dictators.  They even created a Constitution that separated the powers of government into three separate, but equal branches hoping that this would offset the basic greed of men.   These three branches are now showing that small-minded men can usurp the dreams of giants.  The Judicial Branch has decided that they know better than Congress and has been legislating from the bench for the past 50 or so years.  Congress has decided that they do not have to listen to the voters who put them into office.  They set themselves up with pay, pensions, and healthcare beyond the reach of the taxpayers who foot the bills and then they exempt themselves from the laws that all other citizens have to obey.  The Executive Branch, beginning with Theodore Roosevelt and coming forward to our time, has felt that it can run the country through Executive Orders, effectively bypassing Congress and the will of the people.

For instance, Theodore Roosevelt created numerous departments in the government that are still with us today.  Woodrow Wilson attempted to create a world body that would unite all of the governments into one controlling organization.  Thank God the League of Nations failed or our freedoms might have been snuffed out in the early 1920s.  Franklin Roosevelt created Social Security that was supposed to supplement a person’s savings when he/she retired from the work force.  This was supposed to have been voluntary and was not to have been taxed.  See what happens when greedy politicians enter the scene?  And now, we have Barack Obama, who has decided to relegate the United States to the status of a Third World nation.  He has decided that the population of the United States (legal and illegal) has to be covered by health insurance for which the individual has pay whether or not he wishes to have coverage.   In “Obamacare”, they have talked about the possibility of a single-payer system (the Federal Government) and rationing of services (read “Death Panels”) for terminally ill citizens, similar to the system in Great Britain. 

The upshot of these various governmental departments, world bodies, retirement and healthcare plans is that you, the citizen, the taxpayer, the voter, the owner of this nation are being dispossessed in your own country by greedy politicians who bow to the altars of special interests.  You have only a very narrow window of opportunity in which take a stand and retake your country from these petit-dictators who would be kings, and that window is rapidly closing.

You, as a citizen of these United States must talk to your friends, neighbors, and co-workers.  Join groups like the Tea Party and write your Congressmen/women.  Tell them that you want your Country back.  It does not belong to them.  You do not work for them, they work for you.  You elected them to office and you can remove them just as easily.  Now is the time to take charge, tomorrow may be too late.
