Baulking The Enemy's Plans

by Dr. Edwin Vieira, Ph.D., JD

I believe that an united America, operating according to her Constitution and uncompromisingly asserting her national sovereignty under the Declaration of Independence, could successfully fend off the New World Order—although, perhaps, it might be a long-drawn-out and close-run thing. I believe that the globalists think so, too, and are doubtlessly sore disturbed by that distinct possibility. But what lone State.......

The Challenge of Closing Tax Loopholes for Billionaires

Robert Reich, Robert Reich's Blog: "Who could be opposed to closing a tax loophole that allows hedge-fund and private equity managers to treat their earnings as capital gains - and pay a rate of only 15 percent rather than the 35 percent applied to ordinary income?"

Obama declared: ‘When we don’t pay close attention to the decisions made by our leaders, when we fail to educate ourselves about the major issues of the day … that’s when democracy breaks down. That’s when power is abused.’ Unfortunately, most Americans have little or no idea how government works or who is holding the reins on their lives...

Kristen Chick, The Christian Science Monitor: "The Deepwater Horizon oil spill has put a spotlight on the dangerous world of offshore oil drilling. With a well spewing thousands of barrels of crude (estimates range from 5,000 to 100,000 barrels) a day into the Gulf of Mexico, many are wondering if the industry has been too lightly regulated."
