The gravest threat to America is not terrorism. The most serious threat to America today is not the safety or security of American citizens.
The gravest threat to America today is the loss of American freedoms and liberties and the accumulation of power into the hands of those who hold the reins of state.
Our Founding Fathers recognized that the greatest enemy to our republic would come not from external enemies no matter how dire, but rather from our own government. Thus they created a Constitution of checks and balances which would limit the redistribution of power into the federal government. Today these checks and balances which have served us so well for over 200 years are evaporating.
Our Founding Fathers also recognized that central banking would lead to the redistribution of wealth into the hands of the few and the byproduct would be destitution and economic slavery for the average American. They reflected this observation in the Constitution which proscribes a central banking system. Yet today we have the Federal Reserve - a private corporation owned by a few major banks from which the federal government borrows money and pays interest on that money which it alone has the authority to make.
The Founding Fathers understood that the tendency of government is to grow in an imperial fashion with wealth and power redistributing to those who control the functions and apparatus of the state at the expense and degradation of every citizen not a member of this imperial cabal.
But now we have the Patriot Act, the Military Commissions Act, signing statements and the perpetual, losing war against terrorism.
These acts are not designed to protect American lives nor to preserve American freedoms. Their only function is to strip Americans of their wealth and freedoms so that power and wealth may be more easily distributed to the rich and powerful. These people include George Bush, Dick Cheney, Don Rumsfeld, David Rockefeller, Henry Kissinger and the Clintons.
We face a crossroads in America. We stand upon the threshold of tomorrow. Down one path leads to a decline in America; unrelenting war, economic crisis, environmental disaster, increasing crime and a Big Brother police state in which the individual is reduced to economic slavery and cannon fodder for those in power.
Down the second path stands a new glory for America. Here there is a positive America where fortune and prosperity are available for all. Down this second path is an America in which freedoms, rights, liberty and happiness are not only the hope, but also the fulfillment of every individual, not the exception.
Down this second path, America is great once again. We once again become a bright shining light for all. The principles which made America great can make America great again.
The decision is upon us. The paths are clear. The choice is open. All we must do is choose. Choose the path of freedom. Choose the path of hope. Do not choose the path of slavery, hatred and fear. The choice is yours. Choose wisely.

The most danger we face is the divisive nature of Congress. We need to get the Fair Tax Act passed. That is the starting point for re-establishing a government that is for "we the people".
Currently it does not matter who is in power. Manipulation of the tax code to reward lobbyists for the Democrats or Republicans is the real problem.
Until sufficient leaders can be found in both parties to pass HR25 - nothing matters. Once we all know the real tax rate, solve the social security shortfall, quit kidding ourselves that non-people pay taxes, etc., etc. we can then move on. Passing HR25 is the only way to make that happen.
Want more examples? Take electric companies - rather, they are taking us all and have for decades. If we did not provide tax breaks they would likely be more entrepreneurial. They might even sell solar panel systems. But today, they have no incentive to get into other products.
How about bums on our streets? With HR25 they will need to learn how to use ATM machines to collect their pre-bate. Crooks of course will try to rip the bums off. Then the lawyers can get involved. Of course, the lawyers will be charging less money since the legalities market will be more competitive without all the lobby paperwork needed in the past.
What was H&R Block anyway?
And, how about those IRS agents? They can all go suck dirt - and I hope they choke!
And, pity the poor underground economy folks. If they are selling new goods they will need to be extremely careful to continue not paying taxes. In fact most will pay taxes or go to jail. There will simply be too many folks involved in a transaction to hide it. Some of those IRS agents will probably get those undercover jobs. Oh well, everything can not be good with life!
Anyway, I hope you support HR25. And, really, it does not matter who is in the White House. They are all scum in the minds of millions of people.
