America under enemy rule and the world as it is
The bureaucrats might say" The budget is not enough to pay for all the departments!", and we, the people should reply:"That's right, because we, the people, don't need 99% of you offices". We should close immediately all the federal government offices except some Pentagon, some intelligence services and some 5% of the State Department. Federal reserve does deserve to go to hell too, it's just that the public is not ready for this yet psychologically (it’s called psychological dependance– it’s like dependance on drugs). But if Bernanke before elections will starting printing money like crazy, then the public mood might change overnight enough to recognize that we, the people, would be much better off without ALL federal offices (as mentioned above– some remnants of Pentagon, intelligence and a touch of FBI are OK). Socialist “economists” basically say that if you are in trouble because of the too much debts (just like America is now), like in a crap upto you neck– the “solution” is: “Spend more, get deeper into the debts crap above your head”. Insane! The real economists (such as Hayek and von Mises and recently Prof. White, George Selgin, Steven Horwitz and Thomas Sowell) know that the Feds causes the boom-bust cycle. Without the Feds economy would develop much smoother. The ideal solution would be to return to the precious metals as money, but the problem is there is not enough gold anymore in today's huge global economy. Of course, we might think of expanding the precious metals choices– there are already palladium and platinum-made coins, and the palladium deposits in Norilsk are tremendous (the South African mines are plagued by the electricity shortages since the leftist totalitarian ANC took over the country). Less chartered waters are the return to the private banking, the privatization of the money supply, where the "decent money" would be issued by the trustworthy private enterprise with the interest rate as the main regulator of the price of the money. 100 years of the feds dictatorship have ingraved into the public opinion a fear of such reforms, but the research of the Austrian school of economy is well worth further exploration. As soon as the public will get over the instilled by the government itself and by the 96% socialist media fears of privatization, then they will learn that there is nothing a government can do better than a private enterprise. My personal amateurish preference would be the polymetal coins though, because then the money would have the value on its own merit, not requiring any external support in the form of trust (the paper money only as good as you trust the issuer. If in September, 2010 the feds will break the public trust by crazing printing as Bernanke hinted already, then the paper money will start becoming just a piece of paper).
All these enemies of the people in federal education, environmental departments and the like do is hurting our society, economy and individual freedoms. Majority of their current functions can be assumed at the school doard, community and municipality levels and at its worst at the States level. As close to the people the decision making process takes place– as better (now we know why– because the best way to regulate is a self-regulation with the tight feed-back loop). Eradicate federal offices completely, don't leave even 1% staff of these hostile entities because they will regenerate as warms in no time. In the time of continental war on the US territory annual exception can be made by 75% of the Congress vote to impose "war tax" and lifting bar to not more than 30% of the GDP (otherwise too much taxes will affect negatively the whole economy, and the slowdown will decrease chances of winning the war).
3) The Amendment must specifically PROHIBIT ANY INCOME TAX on any government's level because income tax in un-Constitutional since it makes impossible preserve your privacy: in order to collect the income tax, government must intrude into the private life and infringe individual liberties. There is simply no other way to collect even 1% of income tax without the massive government intrusion into your privacy, your work and banking records, your family and your personal life. There is absolutely no private life in America as long as the government imposes even 1% income tax. "Just say no to drugs, no to the income tax";-) The government physically can use the information obtained during collection and inforcement of the income tax laws for any purpose it wants, even if it claims otherwise: the private information about your work, income, family, bank, investment and so forth is stored in the government files forever. Government with today's income tax laws always knows where your money is, and it can decide to go after all your life savings any time it decides to change the rules. As you know, there are talks in the government now about "merger" of the inevitably failing Social Security Ponzi scheme and your private retirement accounts, which is simply a robbery under very thin disguise. Remember 1933 when "progressive" Democratic FDR's government was confiscating physical gold from Americans? Now they can decide to go for all your life savings. The government has embezzled already all the Social Security money, and when time to pay comes– our enemy government will steal your money by "merger" of the inevitably failing government SS plan with 401k and other private plans.
4) The Amendment must specifically prohibit double taxation such as death tax and the capital gain tax.
5) The Amendment must specificallyt tell the government WHAT TAXES AND HOW MUCH IT CAN COLLECT. I am not an economist, but sales tax (instead of income tax, not on top of that) sounds pretty anonimous, so the government will have no right for intrusion into privacy in order to collect the tax. The feds can lay tariffs not higher than 5% on the import too.
6) The Amendment must specifically repeal the "right" of the federal government to regulate and control the inter-state commerce because so far it is the worst abused clause by the federal government in its power grab and in the destruction of the Constitution, the federalism and America as a land of free. "Inter-state commerce" pretext basically can be used (and it is being used as we speak by the "progressive" people's enemies in Washington,DC) to destroy people’s and the States' sovereignty in order to create federal dictatorship on the ruins of the Republic. Let the Free Market regulate all commerce, including inter-state. Might some states abuse the freedom? Yes, but then their citizens will vote with their feet and they will relocate themselves to the freedom friendlier states such as Texas. Let it be. Self-regulation slowly but surely will sort this out.
7) The Amendment must specifically prohibit collective bargaining to the public employees of all levels (feds, states, municipal) because they use taxpayors money to pay the salary and benefits. If private companies are ready to share profits they create by selling goods or services– it's their own private business. But our money from our pockets must not be stolen by arm-twisting socialist labor unions such as ISEU. Any attempt to conduct collective bargaining on behalf of the public employes should be considered a crime punishable by a jail time consistent with the punishment for the similar offenses such as blackmailing, raketeering and stealing money. These practices resulted in the 140 trillion dollars of unfunded government liabilites and they must be stopped immediately to cure unfolding national fiscal catasrophe. Besides, socialism is a hostile ideology and giving money to the socialist labor union thugs means funnelling our money to elect our totalitarian enemies to the government offices-legislative, executive and courts. This way we don't have to dismantle piblic sector labor unions– they will die out themselves if they are of no further use in the blackmailing the taxpayors.
8) The Amendment must specifically prohibit bailing out the indebted governments by the paxpayors' money. It should specifically give a pathway to solve "the insolvency" problems using usual bancruptcy pathway: indebted government or the court must declare bancruptcy; the bancruptcy councel should be created by the court and it must include the public of the electorate and representatives of the higher level of the government on 1:1 basis with equal voting privilages; the concel should sell ALL the government assets and pay the debts ONLY from the government assets on calcualted pro-rate basis. If government assets constitute only 10% of the debts/unfunded liabilities, then the bancruptcy councel pays 10 cents for each dollar. If a government screws up then it must pay the debts, not us, the people footing their embezzlement bills all over again. It includes the federal government. When we, the people slush 99% of the government offices, size, scope and budget, then the federal government should sell out its assets, basically privatizing the whole country. The practical details of this process are described in the book "Why government doesn't work" by former US presidential candidate Harry Browne.
9) And the last but not least: The Amendment must specifically prohibit any level of government, including the federal, imposing the involuntary entitlement programs, including but not limited to Social Security and Medicare. These programs must be offered on a strictly voluntary basis with annual letter reminding about the option to withdraw from the program with a full refund. Retroactively the Amendment should force the government to offer to all current participants an option to withdraw from the program immediately WITH FULL REFUND of the life-time accumulated premiums within one year. The prospective of getting back our money stolen by the feds from our pockets without our consent should win public support for this whole Amendment and assure its passing in the Congress by a landslide majority (especially considering that there will be a zero income tax on that money with the passage of this Amendment). The Amendment also must specifically prohibit the government to use a taxpayor money to pay back to the same taxpayers their own accumulated premiums should anyone to decide to withdraw from the entitlement program. The government must pay its own bills selling out its assets if needed. If needed, the Supreme Court can set up a Federal Government Bancruptcy Commission that will act on behalf of the creditors (us, the people) and will sell out the feds' property to pay its debts to us, the people, to the feds creditors. This will help to reduce the evil force of the Almighty Government for good. The feds kept purchasing from us America's lands using our own money, and currently the feds own over 1/3 of all land in the US. It's time to privatize the country because there is nothing a government can do better than Free Market.
THE 100 PAGES AMENDMENT:
This one doesn't have to be a separate Amendment– could be a part of any Amendment. It should read : The legislature of any level, including federal, under no circumstances shall receive and process any bill or project longer than a 100 pages". Period.
The ban of Shariah law around the world (not of Islam, but of antihumane Shariah laws), might make the Muslims reform Islam, removing the anti-humane Shariah laws from Quran and making Islam an ordinary religion just like any other that possibly WILL BE compatible with the humanity. So far Islam that includes the hateful Shariah laws IS NOT a true religion and Islam IS NOT compatible with any civilization, with any other law system. Today's Islam is an engine of jihad (which is the war of Islam against humanity, against all human civilizations that started 1,400 years ago by first islamic terrorist named Muhammed (read “The legacy of Jihad” and “The sword of the prophet”) and never ended). It’s time for the humanity to unite against genocidal jihad and end it.
An excerpt from the “we should do that” program (I shall try to publish more comprehensive version of the book later):
THE POPULAR IMPEACHMENT AMENDMENT:
This Amendment would give a right to the people once every 4 years to impeach directly any government official of any branch. Basically, it can be initiated only once during typical term. If at least 10% of the respective electorate signs petition to impeach a Justice, a judge, a Governor, a President, a legislator or any other official, then the popular impeachment referendum is triggered. The public representatives and observers must be allowed to participate in the referendum commissions to assure the fairness of the process. If 2/3 of the electorate vote for the impeachment, then the oifficial is removed. Conducting referendums more freequently would disrupt the normal functioning of the government, and using simple majority rather super-majority could result in un-stable Democracy rather than more stable Republic, ruled by the law. This way we, the people, can remove from the office directly an official who proved to be an enemy of the people that completely disregards the will of the sovereign, of the people. If the law would be in place now, then the Californians could fire the arrogant judge Walker that spits at the Californian's referendum and Americans could fire Obama. This Amendment could serve as a safe-valve to let steam go if the pressure in society builds up to the point of explosion. It's much better to fire the politicians turned enemies of the people rather than fire at them– I oppose violence whenever it is possible, because violence begets violence. The worst thing that can happen is the assassination of Obama because then he will be remembered as a martir rather than a scumbag he is. Besides, it would discredit the conservative movement that in fact is much less prone to violence than the Left by definition because the Left wants to impose their coercive redistribution robbery by force while the conservatives rely on the laws of Free market rather than on a brute force and they want very little governance that allows you to keep what you earned. The officials would behave much differently if they knew they ARE accountable all the time, not just during the election campaign.
The “that would be nice” program:
That would incorporate all desirable goals that should be accomplished but so far are not vital.
1) No new mosques on the West until there are Churches, synagogues, Hindu Temples and the like in Mecca and Medina. Only tolerant ones deserve the tolerance back. The mainstream Islam, based on the Shariah laws, preaches jihad against all other civilization. If Islam considers all of the Infidels enemies in the state of perpetual "holy" war, jihad, then we should pay them back eye for eye, tooth for tooth.
2) Besides building other religions chrines in Mecca and Medina, what the other signs of Islam becoming a true religion that is compatible with all other religions and civilizations? All Shariah laws are repealed from the next editions of Quran, all jihad preaching in 80% of the mosques in the US is stopped for good and condemned by the Muslims. Apostates killings are stopped and condemned, the bridges become true bridges, not a one ways roads where to convert criminals to Islam is OK, but the Muslims converted to CHristianity must be killed. The references that women are inferior to men and that they must be beaten up to comply with husbands orders are removed from Quran. Shariah courts are banned in all countries, the civilized laws are introduced instead, stoning of raped women becomes illegal. Homosexualism becomes a private matter, neither religion nor government interfere with this. No punishment, no encouragement (such as marriage benefits for the homosexuals).
3) Polygraph (a lie detector test) for immigrants from islamofacist countries before issuance of the immigration visa and before granting the citizenship to answer the question which they recognize as the supreme– the law of the land or the Shariah law.
4) Government officials, elected or not, also must undergo the same lie detector test with the same questions. If the government official's duty is to defend and protect the laws of America, then he/she cannot do so if the islamofascism laws or anti-American totalitarian socialist ideologies are supreme to them. However, if the government will have only 1% of the powers it has now, then this will be an immaterial issue because with no power the enemies in the government cannot cause much damage to the country.
5) If the Departments of Educations are not abolished (which would be the ideal solution as it would expose the educators to the Free Market pressure, to the consumers choice– students and their parents, which would minimize the isntances where the educators neglect their duties and instead of educating are busy indoctrinating the kids with the hostile ideologies, which will be considered a consumer fraud) then we should re-introduce the requirement for all educators to swear under the oath their allegience to the American Constitution. If they refuse– we don't need the enemies of America crippling our children, turning them against their own country. Polygraph would be even more effective way to root out the hostile ideologies although I'd prefer just to privatize 100% of school as the painless and permanent solution to all problems in education system. Because of the nationalization of education the quality of education continues to deteriorate. It's not just the hostile ideology, it's the whole bureaucrats and socialist unions run industry than is inherently inefficient and counterproductive, that needs to be fixed, and the only way to fix is to privatize it. Denationalization of schools was stressed as a priority by the legendary economist Dr. Milton Friedman in the "Nation at risk" and by Paul Copperman, who wrote "Each generation of Americans has outstripped its parents in education, in literacy, and in economic attainment. For the first time in the history of our country, the education skills of one generation will not surpass, will not equal, will not even approach those of their parents".
6) Establishment of the viable alternatives to the freedom-hating enemies of the people on the information market such as Associated Press and Reuter.
7) Establishment of the viable alternatives to the freedom-haters in the entertainment industry such as MPI (moving picture institute) and many other need to be started because the "progressive" piblic opinion makers are liars and hypocrites. As MPI states: M. Moore has amassed a $170 mln fortune making movies and playing stock markets, andnow he declares that "capitalism is evil". (I'd say– less evil than Stalin, Lenin, Hitler, Mao and Euro-socialists that destroy their own countries). Oliver Stone glorifies Hugo Chavez, the Venezuelan dictator socialist. Al Gore tells us to cut back on energy, but his several mansions have a carbon print of a small African nation size. Obama told us to check the pressure gouge in the car to save the gas.... so he can fly alone on a Boing (before elections!) to Hawaii…and he sends his daughters to a private school with >$30,000 tuition but he doesn't want you to be able to choose a school for your kids.
8) Establishing conservative parental advisories and alternative movie rating systems thay would warn us to avoid taking our children to the anti-American movies (and, thus, financially supporting our enemies) or going ourselves (how many times after the movie started you'd wish you didn't go there?). The same thing can be done about computer games to avoid violence, sex, perversions and hostile ideology propaganda in the games. Do you know what kind of games your kids play? Similar advisories might be worked out for the parental internet control, to educate willing parents how to use parental controls, what sites to avoid and the like. The materials can be distributed by mail, on internet or presented as the educational courses.
9) Establishing the parents committies in the colleges and the conservative students unions, to assure their rights to visit lecture, to make sure there is no typical consumer fraud when the name of the course has nothing to do with the histerical anti-American propagands within the lectures. Colleges and universities so far are occupied by the enemies of America territory, just as Washington, DC is, so keep your vigilance to make sure the enemies will not kidnap your kids.
10) No government issues caps on the H1 working visas– the government must issue as manu visas as the Free Market needs because it costs millions to educate millions, but when America cherry picks only the best qualified ones it saves tons on the costs of education. Brain drain one of the best investments ever. Unfortunately, under the socialist labor union pressure the government does just opposite– drive the highly qualified professionals, potential immigrants, to other countries with the easier immigration process.
11) Take over all the "noble" causes that "progressive" Democrats have highjacked because these used to be a really good causes, which the Dems have spoiled. For example, the "progressive" Femi-Nazis, as the totalitarians supposed to do, support the islamofascists. But Shariah law treats women like a property, allowing beating them up to keep in line, allowing raping by a husband with a no right to say "no" to husband, unless she's having menses, allowing stoning to death for the raped girls (it's their own fault, per mullas) and so forth. In short, if and when the islamofascism takes over the West, the women will suffer the second (after the homosexuals), but still the Femi-nazis "leaders" help Shariah law to come and rule the land, which is a betrayal of their "constituency", of women they are supposed to protect and defend. The problem is– the "leaders " are not women but the "progressive" Democrats, just like 78% of voting for Husein Obama Jews are not Jews but "progressive" Democrats. It's the usual paradox– the self-appointed "leaders" of the special interest group are always in the long run enemies of the people they promise to protect. They don't protect them, they force them to go to the dangerous profession "just like the men do", to dring and to smoke "just like the men do" (even though it kills women twice more effectively than men); they encourage them even to pee standing "just like the men do", to be promiscuous, to be single, to postpone or to give up the childbearing (even though late pregnancy after 35 years increases risk of breast cancer for 7.5% while each pregnancy BEFORE 35 y. DECREASES the risk for the same 7.5%. So, these women need to be saved from their "saviors", from the Femi-Nazi "leaders", and the job of the conservative true feminists such as Sarah Palin. The same way with the 96% leftist journalists: first of all they are leftist, the "progressive" (although the "progressive" movement is no more progressive than progressive syphilis. 100% of the progress is due to the market forces). So, the journalists subconsciously prefer to write poor but "progressive" article rather than brilliant but pro-Free Market one. Again, all the leftist "human rights activists" and all other crapy "activists" first of all are the "progressive" enemies of the people, thus, they are unable to protect long term interests even of those special interests groups they claim to represent (put aside the rest of the Americans). They act as the "progressive" enemies of the people, hence, hurting even their constituency. At its best, they can achieve usual for the totalitarians "Short term gain for the long term pain" while the mode of action of free market and conservatives is always "Short term pain for long term gain". That's how animal rights activists never manage to protect animals, poor people advocates and their "progressive" laws only hurt poor people in the long run and so forth. All they do is giving handoouts to beggars, therefore creating more and more beggars and more power grabs for the government. Remember how full of noble intentions Ontario government passed the law mandates "stupid sheep" to wear the helmet while riding a bike. Such a noble idea to use coercion by the ruling enlightened elite FOR THE GREATER GOOD of these stupid people that are unable to grasp such wonderful ideas themselves. Well, not so fast. Turned out that the biggest saving lives is not the helmets but the amount of the bikers on the road. It works through the multiple mechanisms: more bikers=less motorists; more bikers– the drivers are more aware of them and are prepared to co-inhabit the roads; more bikers– the roads are built and marked for the "bikers only" lanes. The list goes on and on, but the important thing is that after forcing unwilling people to wear helmets 50% of them decided to quit and amount of bikers on the road dropped in half. If you expect that the bikers' mortality dropped in half too, then you are wrong: the MVA, trauma and fatalities have actually INCREASED!! despite the smaller numbers of the bikers. In short– the government thing has never worked, it is not worling now and it will never ever work in the future because it is against the laws of nature. There are many reasons why the government never works, and even one of them should be enough to never put a trust in the government "solving" the problems.
