Our Democracy and Our Sovereignty I have discussed repeatedly our form of government, a Democratic Republic, with freedom and justice for all wherein we all should have a vote–a say in government, a government of the people, by the people, and for the people. I have also talked about our Shadow Government, our real government, a government by the Corporatocracy and Power Elite which, behind the scenes, really runs out great nation, dictating the lives and fortunes of our people, i.e. you and me, and taking from us our inalienable rights under our Constitution–our rights as citizens, through the buying of our elections and the procurement of our representatives–all too often a two-way street. What I have consistently advocated is the right of equal opportunity for all and the people’s right to participate in the productivity and wealth of the nation in accordance with their contribution to society and their ability to produce. Those who for whatever reason do not have the ability to produce need to be helped or supported by those of us who do have the ability, in proportion to their needs. In no way is a policy of survival of the fittest and the establishment of huge garbage piles of human rejects acceptable in a civilized society or a successful nation for that matter–No Way! In conjunction with this, the size of our government should be as large or as small as whatever our people want and are willing to pay for. This should and must be the decision of all the people, 100% of them–not just a handful making the decision for all of us. To that end, payment through taxation should and must be based on a progressive tax system based upon the taxpayer’s ability to pay. Those blessed with the greatest gifts from God, i.e. intelligence, leadership skills, etc. and make the greater contribution to society should be paid accordingly. They should also be taxed accordingly. To whom the most is given, the most is required. For those who want smaller government, as I, eliminate duplication in government and do it now. Don’t just talk about it, as you have for these many years. Consolidate intelligence and other duplicative agencies, just one example of which might be the catfish-inspection office at the Agriculture Department, duplicated at the Food and Drug Administration. Discontinue the practice of shifting functions of government to subcontracting to hide the real cost of government–subcontractors in Iraq or boots on the ground–same function, but the subcontractors sure cost a lot more–just another subterfuge. Before I end this for today, I want to cover one more aspect of our government. Our nation promotes democracy around the world, spending billions upon billions of dollars in doing so. We advocate human rights. We preach fair treatment. We honor our national sovereignty and right to freedom, almost to the point of worship. And yet, privately, under the table or behind the scenes, not inconsistent with our Shadow Government by the Corporatocracy and Power Elite, we control the other nations of the world (the third world for example), taking from them the same rights we so strongly proclaim–those where we know better, however, excluded (you know, Russia, China, North Korea, ….). I was studying another subject this afternoon; and, in the course of events, I came upon an article about NSSM200, National Security Study Memorandum 200. At first, I could hardly believe what I was reading. It was a report on the Implications of Worldwide Population Growth for U.S. Security and Overseas Interests, completed December 10, 1974 by the United States National Security Council under the direction of Henry Kissinger. It was adopted almost a year later in November, 1975 by President Gerald Ford. Originally classified, i.e. kept secret from the people, it was later declassified and obtained by researchers in the early 1990’s. The basic thesis of the memorandum was that population growth in the least developed countries of the world (known as LDCs) is a concern to U.S. national security, because it would tend to risk civil unrest and political instability in countries that had a high potential for economic development. This policy gives “paramount importance” to population control measures and the promotion growth which the US deems inimical to the socio-political and economic growth of these countries and to the national interests of the United States, since the “U.S. economy will require large and increasing amounts of minerals from abroad”, and these countries can produce destabilizing opposition forces against the United States. It recommends that US leadership “influence national leaders”, and that “improved world-wide support for population-related efforts should be sought through increased emphasis on mass media and other population education and motivation programs by the U.N., USIA, and USAID.” (I interpret this as mind control. We do it here at home all the time. Just watch the TV news.) How about that? What happened to our belief in national sovereignty? Hmm…. Apparently, it is ethically permissible for Russia, China, or whatever nation that so desires to do so for the sake of their national security, however defined, to take control over the people of the United States of America? What, if they do (and we don’t like it) and our people strike back with whatever means within our abilities? Will that make us terrorists? They surely need our coal, corn, wheat…… Oh! One more question, if I might. Does this policy established by Henry Kissinger in 1974 conform to the principles set forth by our forefathers when they established our nation, i.e. “life, liberty, and justice for all”, or the principle that “all men are created equal” or …..? Maybe that’s the reason they kept it secret for so long–good thing there was no Edwin Snowden then. This makes me wonder as to what our Shadow Government has in store for us next.
